PART I
 
Item 1. Description of Business
 
Background of Equicap
 
Reincorporation of Equicap
 
Equicap, Inc. (Equicap or the company) was incorporated on March 13, 2002 for the purpose of entering into a merger with and redomiciling its predecessor, Equicap, Inc., a California corporation ("Equicap California"). Effective January 25, 2005, Equicap California was merged with and into Equicap in a statutory merger based on management's belief that Nevada law is more advantageous to a corporation than California law. Equicap was considered a blank check company prior to the acquisition of Usunco Automotive Limited, a British Virgin Islands company (“Usunco”) in March 2007.
 
Predecessor Corporation to Equicap
 
Equicap's predecessor, Equicap California, was incorporated under the laws of the State of California on March 1, 1995, under the name of VWR Acquisition company, Inc. ("VWR"); the name was later changed to Equicap, Inc. Equicap's business activities prior to July 1996 were that of an investment banking and consulting firm whose business plan was to assist its clients by infusing capital into them and utilizing its experience to assist its client companies in getting their products or services to market. Equicap anticipated "incubating" client companies. Equicap issued 5,500,000 shares of its common stock in March 1995 to its founders in consideration of cash and services rendered. In March 1995, 200,000 shares of its common stock were issued to an investor for approximately $137,000 in cash. All the shares were treated as "restricted securities" within the meaning of the rules under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Act”). Then in October 1995, approximately 4,022,115 common shares were voluntarily cancelled by the shareholders, reducing the number of outstanding shares to 1,677,885.
 
On December 29, 1995, BBU Systems Inc. ("BBU") was merged with and into Equicap as the surviving entity pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger. In the merger Equicap issued 1,273,415 shares of its common stock and acquired all of the issued and outstanding common shares of BBU. In connection with the merger, an additional 509,295 shares were voluntarily cancelled by the holders, reducing the number of outstanding shares to 2,442,005.
 
Equicap became dormant in July 1996 when the company's board of directors determined that its original business plan could not be executed, and that the business of BBU could not be developed, due to the lack of operating capital and the lack of prospects to raise adequate funding.
 
On June 19, 1998, Equicap issued 5,000,000 shares of its common stock to Stephen M. Siedow, the former President of the company, for services and costs advanced on behalf of Equicap that were valued at $5,000 in the aggregate. These shares were issued as "restricted securities."
 
On July 31, 1998, Equicap's common stock underwent a reverse split in which each 100 of the issued and outstanding shares were changed into one share, which decreased the number of issued and outstanding shares from 7,442,005 to 74,732. On December 29, 1999, Equicap issued 100,000 shares of its common stock to Mr. Siedow for services and fees and costs advanced on behalf of Equicap that were valued at $10,000 in the aggregate, which also were treated as "restricted securities." These shares have been registered for sale by Mr. Siedow under a registration statement.
 
On January 18, 2000, Equicap's common stock underwent a reverse and forward split of the common shares in which (i) each 50 of the issued and outstanding shares were changed into one share, with each fraction being rounded up to a whole share, and (ii) immediately following the reverse split, each resulting share was changed into 100 shares. Upon conclusion of the January 2000 recapitalization, Equicap had 390,100 common shares issued and outstanding.
 

 
2007 Share Exchange
 
Equicap and Usunco entered a Share Exchange Agreement on March 7, 2007, which was consummated on March 9, 2007. Under the Exchange Agreement, Equicap acquired all the outstanding equity securities of Usunco in exchange for 18,323,944 shares of common stock of Equicap, and thereby Equicap acquired Usunco as a wholly-owned subsidiary. Prior to the Share Exchange, Equicap was a shell company with nominal assets and operations.
 
Each share of common stock of Equicap issued in the exchange to the former shareholders of Usunco is restricted stock, and the holder thereof may not sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of the shares without registration under the Act or an available exemption therefrom. No registration statement covering these shares has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission or with any state securities commission. In addition, some of these shares are subject to lock up agreements and a pledge of shares for the benefit of the investors in the offering, described below, and none of these persons have registration rights.
 
The Exchange Agreement provides that the principal shareholders of Equicap immediately before the Share Exchange have piggy-back and demand registration rights as provided in a registration rights agreement executed with the investors in the offering, described below.
 
In connection with the Exchange Agreement, Equicap engaged Fountainhead Capital Partners Limited (“Fountainhead”), to act as a financial advisor for Equicap in connection with the Share Exchange. At the closing of the Share Exchange, Fountainhead was paid an advisory fee of $450,000.
 
In connection with the Share Exchange, vFinance Investments, Inc. (“vFinance”)provided advice in connection with the Share Exchange and was issued 161,633 shares of common stock as compensation. These shares have the registration rights described below.
 
Since the former shareholders of Usunco owned approximately 65% of the shares of common stock of Equicap at the time of its acquisition of Usunco, the former shareholders of Usunco had control of Equicap immediately after the acquisition. As a result, Usunco was deemed to have been the acquiring company in the Share Exchange, and for accounting purposes, the Share Exchange transaction was treated as a reverse acquisition with Usunco as the acquirer and Equicap as the acquired party.
 
Conversion of Convertible Note of Equicap
 
Equicap and Fountainhead, then an affiliate of Equicap, entered into a convertible note on September 30, 2006, the principal of which was for working capital and discharge of then accrued payables of Equicap. The note was due December 31, 2007, and carried an annual interest rate of 3%. As part of the Share Exchange, Fountainhead agreed to convert the outstanding principal and accrued interest of approximately $100,000 into 702,132 shares of common stock, contingent on the closing of the Share Exchange. The rate of conversion was negotiated in connection with the acquisition of Equicap between the Usunco stockholders and Fountainhead, and represented a significant discount to the sale price of the shares in the private placement offering. Upon the conversion, the note was cancelled. The shares were issued as “restricted stock”. Fountainhead was granted piggyback and demand registration rights for these shares.

Private Placement Offering
 
As a condition to the Share Exchange, Equicap and Usunco conducted a private placement offering of the company’s common stock to accredited and institutional investors (“investors in the Offering”) in which Equicap raised gross proceeds of $12 million (“Offering”) from 11 investors. After commissions and expenses related to the Offering and the $450,000 advisory fee payable to Fountainhead, Equicap received net proceeds of approximately $10,000,000 in the Offering. The investors were issued an aggregate of 8,450,704 shares of common stock, then representing approximately 30% of the issued and outstanding common stock of Equicap. The price per share of common stock was $1.42. From time to time since the issuance, Equicap has had discussions with some of the investors about the redemption of some or all of their shareholdings, but to date, there have been no agreements on any repurchase terms or whether Equicap will be able to fund any repurchase.
 
vFinance was the exclusive placement agent for the Offering. For their services as placement agent, Equicap paid vFinance a fee equal to approximately $983,000 and reimbursed expenses of approximately $120,000. In addition, Equicap issued to vFinance a five-year warrant to purchase an aggregate of 422,535 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $2.13 per share (“Agent Warrant”). The Agent Warrant vests over three years, and once vested is exercisable in whole or in part from time to time prior to March 6, 2012. In certain circumstances, the Agent Warrant may be exercised on a cashless basis. Upon the expiration of the warrant exercise period each warrant will expire and become void and of no value. The exercise price and number for which the warrant is exercisable are subject to adjustments in certain events such as mergers, reorganizations or stock splits, to prevent dilution. The holder of the warrant will not possess the rights that the shareholders have unless and until the holder exercises the warrants and then only as a holder of the common stock.
 
Registration Rights for Investors, vFinance and Former Stockholders
 
In connection with the Offering, Equicap granted registration rights to the investors in the Offering, the holders of the Agent Warrant and the shares issued to vFinance, and under the terms of the Share Exchange certain former principal shareholders of Equicap were granted piggy-back and demand registration rights for their respective shares of common stock. Equicap entered into one registration rights agreement with the aforementioned persons. Equicap agreed to register the sale of the 8,450,704 shares of common stock issued to the investors in the Offering, the 161,633 shares of common stock issued to vFinance, the 422,535 shares of common stock underlying the Agent Warrant and the 1,161,632 shares (including 702,132 shares issued on conversion of the Fountainhead note) held by the former principal shareholders of Equicap. In addition, if the make good shares (described below) are distributed to the investors, Equicap will be obligated to register these shares in addition. If any of the above shares are not eligible for registration because of the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, when they are eligible for registration, Equicap will be obligated to take such action to have them registered for sale by the holder by filing successive registration statements. The initial registration statement for sale of the common shares had to be filed by Equicap within 45 days of the closing date of the Offering, and it was to be declared effective within 150 days of the closing date of the Offering, and if these actions were not achieved by those dates then Equicap had to pay each of, and only, the investors 1% of the share purchase price paid by such investor for each month thereafter that the investors cannot publicly sell the shares of common stock covered by that registration statement. Equicap met the filing requirement but not the effectiveness requirement, and it paid $32,000 in penalties to the investors. The same penalties for the failure to file or have declared effective a registration statement within the stated time periods and maintain its effectiveness also apply to the subsequent required registration statements. The maximum penalties under the liquidated damages provision payable to the investors is 10% of the share purchase price paid by the investors in the Offering. The above timing and number of shares are subject to various conditions, and the registration statements are subject to the rules and regulations of the SEC and the staff interpretations thereof. The registration statements required for the investors and vFinance under the registration rights agreement must be kept effective until all the shares of these parties are sold or may be sold without limitation under then Rule 144k, promulgated under the Act (“Rule 144k”).
 
-3-

 
The former principal shareholders of Equicap who have piggy-back registration rights also have a demand registration right after all the shares of the investors in the Offering, the holders of the Agent Warrants and vFinance have either been sold or may be sold without limitation under Rule 144k. The company is obliged to keep this registration statement effective until all the shares have been sold or are eligible for sale under Rule 144k.
 
A registration statement which satisfies the above registration rights has been filed and declared effective for all the above shares of the investors, the holders of the Agent Warrants, vFinance and the former shareholders of Equicap. No assurance can be given that Equicap will be able to maintain the effectiveness of the registration statement.
 
Right of First Refusal
 
For a period of one year after the earlier of: (i) effective date of the first registration statement filed for the sale of common stock by the investors in the Offering (August 13, 2007), or (ii) the first date on which any of the shares of the investors in the Offering otherwise becomes tradable according to Rule 144, those investors had a pro rata right of first refusal to acquire any equity securities offered by Equicap, other than in excluded offerings which are defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement. This right of first refusal has expired.
 
Make Good Escrow Agreement
 
In connection with the Offering, for the benefit of the investors, eight of the former shareholders of Usunco, some of whom are the officers and directors of Equicap, have agreed to place into escrow an aggregate of 10,140,846 shares of common stock issued in the Share Exchange. These are referred to as the “make good shares.” The make good shares will act to adjust the investment of the investors in the Offering by increasing their holdings if the financial targets are not achieved by management as described in this section.
 
If the consolidated financial statements of Equicap for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2007, prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied, reflect either (i) less than $2,320,000 of after-tax net income or (ii) earnings before income tax provision and before minority interest of less than $3,200,000, then 3,042,254 shares of common stock in escrow will be distributed to the investors on a pro rata basis for no additional consideration. If either (i) the earnings per share reported in the Annual Report on Form 10-KSB of Equicap for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2008 is less than $0.343 on a fully diluted basis (as equitably adjusted for any stock splits, stock combinations, stock dividends or similar transactions), (ii) the earnings per share before income tax provision and before minority interest of the company for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2008, is less than $0.446 on a fully diluted basis (as equitably adjusted for any stock splits, stock combinations, stock dividends or similar transactions), (iii) the after tax net income reported in the Annual Report on Form 10-KSB of the company for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2008, is less than $10,000,000, or (iv) the earnings before income tax provision and before minority interest reported in the Annual Report on Form 10-KSB of the company for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2008, is less than $13,020,000, then 7,098,592 shares of common stock in escrow will be distributed to the investors on a pro rata basis for no additional consideration. For purposes of determining the above amounts, if the release of the make good shares causes a charge or expense reflected on the company financial statements, then these will be ignored for purposes of the determination of the earnings before income tax provision and before minority interest, after-tax net income and earnings per share amounts. Also, the effects after the closing of the Offering of changes in China’s tax law and regulation for the purpose of equalization of taxes between domestic and foreign entities, if any, will be excluded from calculation of the earnings before income tax provision and before minority interest, after-tax net income and earnings per share amounts and any registration penalties accrued or paid, other than for a filing failure, will be excluded as an expense of the company. Any make good shares not distributed to the investors will be returned to the persons who placed them in escrow. Any make good shares issued to the investors will be subject to the registration rights under the Registration Rights Agreement.
 
-4-

 
The escrow agent is Securities Transfer Corporation, and vFinance has the authority to instruct the escrow agent to distribute the make good shares at the appropriate dates either to the investors or to the depositing shareholders. The distributions are to take place within 10 business days after the filing of the Form 10-KSB (or equivalent) Annual Report with the SEC by the company.
 
While the make good shares of common stock are in escrow, the eight former equity owners of Usunco who placed them with the escrow agent will have the right to vote the shares and receive the benefits incident to the ownership of the shares, including the right to receive dividends. The investors will have the right to receive the escrowed shares whether or not they hold the shares they acquired in the offering, and they will have the right to assign their rights to receive the shares while they are in escrow.
 
Lock Up Restrictions
 
Stockholders of Equicap who are the officers and directors or their affiliates, holding an aggregate of 14,177,989 shares of common stock, entered into a lock up agreement under which they will be prohibited from selling or otherwise transferring any of their shares of common stock for a period ending the later of (i) twelve (12) months following the effective date of the initial Registration Statement (August 13, 2008), or (ii) two years after the consummation of the Share Exchange (March 9, 2009). In addition, a portion of these shares are subject to the make good agreement which will prevent a portion of these shares from being available for sale until the filing of the Form 10-KSB Annual Report for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2008.
 
As part of the share exchange transaction between Equicap and Usunco, the former principal stockholders of Equicap have entered into lock up agreements governing an aggregate of 1,161,632 shares which provide that they will not sell or otherwise transfer their shares for a period of 365 days from the closing of the Share Exchange (March 8, 2008) subject to a twelve month leak out provision. This lockup has expired.
 
Usunco Automotive Limited
 
Usunco was organized in the British Virgin Islands as a limited liability company on April 24, 2006. Usunco owns 100% of the equity interest of IBC Automotive Products, Inc. (“IBC”), which distributes automotive parts in North American, and 75% of the equity interest of Zhejiang ZhongChai Machinery Co., Ltd. (“ZhongChai JV”) which owns Zhejiang Shengte Transmission Co., Ltd., which makes gears and gearboxes (transmissions) in China. These two subsidiaries also form the two business segments of the Company. The North America/Auto Parts Segment, represented by IBC, focuses on sourcing automotive parts and products from China and distributing them in North America and other regions. The China/Gear Segment, represented by ZhongChai JV and its subsidiary, focuses on manufacturing and distribution of gears and gearboxes in China.
 
IBC was incorporated on May 14, 2004 in the State of California and is headquartered in Santa Ana, California.

ZhongChai JV is a Sino-foreign equity joint venture established in the Peoples Republic of China (the “PRC”) by Usunco, and a local party in China, Xinchang Keyi Machinery Co., Ltd., the successor in interest to Xinchai Holding Group Co., Ltd. with respect to the 25% joint venture interest (“Xinchang Keyi”). The ZhongChai JV manufacturers and sells gears and gearboxes in China. The gears are sold to engine and gearbox manufacturers for their engine and gearbox products. ZhongChai JV’s gearboxes are sold primarily to forklift truck manufacturers. The ZhongChai JV was approved by local authorities in the PRC as a Sino-foreign joint venture company with limited liability to be operated for a term of 25 years. Usunco and Xinchang Keyi have contributed $8 million and $2.6 million in cash for 75% and 25% equity ownership, respectively, for an aggregate amount of $10.6 million in registered capital for the joint-venture. The registered capital may be used as general working capital for it operations and other corporate purposes.
 
In October 2007, Zhongchai JV and Xinchai Holding entered into a letter of intent (“LOI”) regarding the “Hangchai Project,” a project to establish Hangzhou Xinchai Company Limited (“Hangzhou Xinchai”) in Hangzhou, for the purpose of manufacturing diesel engines, engine components and related products. At the time of the LOI execution, Xinchai Holding had obtained approvals from the relevant government authorities for the Hangchai Project, and had initiated the processes of establishing the company and bidding for land. The LOI, among other things, also provided for ZhongChai JV to place a deposit of up to RMB 35 million with Xinchai Holding. The deposit was only to satisfy the payments or registered capital requirements related to the Hangchai Project. The LOI is terminable if within 12 months of its execution the Hangchai Project is not completed or ZhongChai JV decides not to pursue the transaction. On termination, Xinchai Holding is obliged to refund to Zhongchai JV the full amount of the deposit. Due to changes in the macro economic conditions and business operations for the proposed project, ZhongChai JV has decided not to pursue the project, and Xinchai Holding has verbally agreed with that decision. Both parties are in the process of preparing a definitive termination agreement to end the transaction and refund the deposit.
 
Pursuant to the Articles of Association, the board of directors of ZhongChai JV consists of four directors, of which, Usunco has the right to designate three directors and Xinchang Keyi has the right to designate one director. All material issues and actions of ZhongChai JV require approval by a majority of the Board.
 
On July 6, 2007, ZhongChai JV completed the acquisition of all the outstanding equity of Zhejiang Shengte Transmission Co., Ltd. (“Shengte”). Shengte is a company organized under the laws of the PRC. The equity interest was acquired for approximately $3,700,000 in cash. Shengte manufactures and distributes gears and gearboxes mainly used in or together with diesel engines for industrial and agricultural machinery. Shengte was founded in 2006.
 
Products
 
As Usunco continues to implement its business plan, it will expand production and sale of gears and gearboxes primarily within China and distribution of auto part products primarily in North America.
 
-6-

 
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008, the Company and Xinchai Holding Group Co., Ltd. (“Xinchai Holding”), the original joint venture partner of the ZhongChai JV, determined to place the distribution agreement between the ZhongChai JV and Xinchai Holding in suspension so that the joint venture could focus its resources on development of the gear and gearbox products of Xinchang Keyi and their marketing. The joint venture partners determined to put the agreement in suspension because the economics of distributing the Xinchai Holding products under the distribution agreement had been adversely affected by several factors, notably the dramatic increase in the product costs because of the cost of steel which cut into margins and the disinclination of the equipment integrators who use those products to buy engines from a middleman with the added costs, and the overall competition in the industry segment. The use of a suspension arrangement was so the parties could ultimately work to continue to pursue the joint venture in some other profitable endeavor. As a result, Zhongchai JV agreed to work with Xinchai Holding to produce gearboxes that will be sold stand-alone to Xinchai’s customers or sold with the diesel engines made by Xinchai’s subsidiary as a diesel power-train. It was believed that this rearrangement would change Zhongchai JV’s market position from a middleman to an original manufacturer, which is more acceptable in the OEM marketplace.
 
Gears and Gearboxes
 
As a result of the acquisition of Shengte, Usunco’s products include gears and gearboxes. These are primarily used in or together with diesel engines for industrial and agricultural machinery.
 
Auto Parts Products
 
Usunco’s distribution arm in the United States, IBC, imports and distributes automotive parts and products, such as starters and alternators. These are sold to various distributors and wholesalers primarily in the North America, as well as other regions. IBC sources its automotive products from various manufacturers in China. IBC also introduces to its supplying manufacturers in China new auto part designs sourced from North American companies so that they may be manufactured to IBC’s client specifications.

The company’s products will be sold with a dual market emphasis in China and North America. The ZhongChai JV will focus on the domestic market in China, and IBC will focus on North America as well as certain other markets.
 
The main customers of ZhongChai JV are manufacturers of engine, gearbox and industrial equipment located in China. The main customers of IBC are the importers and wholesalers of aftermarket and replacement automobile parts. The products that ZhongChai JV distributes are those that are used as components in its customers’ final products, such as diesel engines, gearboxes, forklifts and other equipment or machinery. The products that IBC currently distributes are automobile starters and alternators.
 
Gears are used in diesel engines and gearboxes that are incorporated into industrial equipment, such as forklifts; gearboxes are used in industrial and agricultural equipment or in vehicles. The domestic market in China for gear and gearbox products has grown in recent years because of the increase in domestic demand driven by country wide economic growth and urban expansion. In addition, beginning in 2005, because of the favorable government policies towards farmers in China, the PRC agricultural equipment market has been a growing market for the products like those of the company. As a result, the company has seen growth of gears business in recent years. The company started small production of gearboxes in the last quarter of fiscal year 2008.
 
China is becoming a major manufacturing base for worldwide automotive parts and components. Over the last several years, the company believes that a number of major original equipment manufacturers in the United States and Europe have announced sourcing programs which will represent a significant amount, in both dollars and pieces, of auto parts from China. Despite of the lately strong Renminbi and weak US dollars, China’s auto parts export market is expected to continue growing over the long term.

Customers
 
The company’s major customers in its gear business are diesel engine producers, such as Zhejiang Xinchai Co., Ltd. And the major customers in its gearbox business are original equipment manufactures in China, who typically integrate gearbox with engine and other components into their final products, such as forklifts trucks.
 
Internationally, through IBC, the company distributes automotive parts, most of which are made in China, to distributors and wholesalers. The company focuses particularly on starters and alternators, for sale primarily in the North American aftermarket and replacement sector. The current customers include LTD/Visteon and BBB/OCA, and the end-users of our products include Pep Boys, Worldpac/ Carquest, and Ford.
 
Principal Customers
 
The Company had three major customers, BBB/OCA, JNS Tsusho Corp. and Ltd/Visteon, Inc., who accounted for approximately 32%, 28% and 27%, respectively, of the Company's net revenue of the auto parts segment for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008. For the gear segment, two customers, Zhejiang Xinchai Co., Ltd. and Zhejiang Xinchai Power Co., Ltd. accounted for 90% and 7%, respectively, of the net revenue in China, for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008. These five customers accounted for 8%, 7%, 6%, 69% and 6%, respectively, of the Company’s consolidated revenue for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008. The company performs appropriate credit checks before orders are accepted and invoices are issued. Most accounts are collected within 90 days. Customers generally do not provide long-term volume purchase commitments. Rather, transactions are based on non-binding purchase plans that provide only purchase forecasts and state basis terms.
 
Product Returns and Warranties
 
The company provides only a limited right of return for non-conforming products if returned in a timely fashion for reasons of their being non-conforming. The company generally provides a one-year limited warranty covering manufacturing defects and functional failures of gearbox and auto part products. After evaluation and confirmation, the company will either replace the defective product, or accept returns by crediting the customer account. For auto parts distribution business, replacements and returns, and handling costs are passed through to supplying manufacturers.
 
Sales and Marketing
 
The company’s primary operations are the distribution of auto parts, and production and sale of gears and gearboxes. It currently conducts its sales and marketing through its two operating entities, ZhongChai JV and IBC.
 
In order to acquire and expand the customer base for its gear and gearbox products in China, the company’s sales representatives approaches engine, gearbox and original equipment manufacturers of forklift trucks, through direct contacts, referrals and trade shows. The company’s marketing efforts to develop new customers will emphasize its attention to customer awareness and after sales support.
 
Typically, the customers of these products will provide the supplier with a forecast and a desired shipment schedule up to one year in advance, which are reviewed quarterly, and in some cases monthly. The company’s customers usually will issue to the company an irrevocable purchase order combined with the firm shipment schedule three months prior to shipment.

With respect to the international market, the company markets to the aftermarket auto parts replacement sector through its subsidiary, IBC. It determines what products wholesalers, distributors and retailers in this sector require, and then it sources them from a selected group of manufacturers in China. IBC finds its customers through referrals and trade shows in the aftermarket parts sector. A customer will usually provide IBC with certain specifications for the product they require. IBC works closely with qualified manufacturers in China to meet the technical specifications and cost requirements of those customers. It then approves manufactured samples and obtains a trial order for our customers. Once this process is completed, IBC works with the customer on the forecast, shipment schedule and payment terms. Subsequently, it issues orders to the factories of auto parts suppliers, and IBC’s team in China follows up with local manufacturers to ensure quality control and timely shipment.
 
Suppliers
 
IBC sources automotive parts and products from various manufacturers in China. The current auto parts distributed by IBC on the international market are mainly starters and alternators. These products are sourced mainly from Zhejiang Yongkang Boyu, Wuxi Susun in China and Fittswell Industries Co., Ltd. IBC also distributes other auto parts such as brake pads sourced from other various suppliers. For the China/Gear Segment, ZhongChai JV sources parts and components and semi-finished products mainly from Zhejiang Yuyang Machinery Co., Ltd., Changzhou No. 2 Gears Co., Ltd., and Xinchang Zhaofeng Machinery Co., Ltd. for Zhongchai JV’s further fine processing and assembly.
 
Principal Suppliers
 
For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008, the Company had three major vendors, Zhejiang Yongkang Boyu, Wuxi Susun and Fittswell Industries Co., Ltd who provided approximately 36%, 28%, and 26%, respectively, of the Company's purchases of the auto parts segment. For the gear segment, three major suppliers, Zhejiang Yuyang Machinery Co., Ltd., Changzhou No. 2 Gears Co., Ltd., and Xinchang Zhaofeng Machinery Co., Ltd., accounted for 38%, 16%, and 6%, respectively, of the total purchases, for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008. These six suppliers accounted for 8%, 6%, 5%, 30%, 13% and 5%, respectively, of the Company’s consolidated purchases for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008. The company does not have any long term supply agreements with any of these companies, and it purchases products on the basis of purchase orders. None of our suppliers have any ownership in the company or any relationship with the insiders of the company.
 
Distribution
 
For our gear and gearbox business, currently we ship finished products directly to our customers from the factory warehouse in Zhejiang, China. For our automotive parts business, we do not maintain inventories in China. Occasionally, IBC leases warehouse space in California to receive returned products which are still under warranty and to refurbish them locally.
 
Most of the orders received by IBC are container based with the shipment pre-scheduled. In most of cases IBC arranges for shipments directly from the suppliers in China to the customers’ warehouse in another country.
 
Competition
 
Even though the demand for gear and gearbox products has grown rapidly, the competition has also grown and is severe. There are many local manufacturers making gears and gearboxes, and most of them are willing to compete for customers and market share through low pricing. There are also many global manufacturers interested in the large Chinese market which are entering the market and selling gear and gearbox products having better quality and design than many Chinese suppliers. ZhongChai JV faces the many challenges of being a new entrant to compete for new customers. Management believes it will take ZhongChai JV a few years to establish a solid customer base for itself.
 
-9-

 
With respect to the auto parts market, we face competition from two principal sources, including other international distributors and manufactures in China who export and distribute to the international market directly. Some of the international distributors in our sector have better branding, distribution platforms, and financial capabilities than IBC. These companies source auto parts directly from manufactures in China and distribute them on the international market using their established sales channels and distribution networks. These competitors in North America include companies like WAI, American Automotive Parts, Inc., Arrowhead Electrical Products, Inc., DuBois Marketing Inc., and UniPoint Electrical Mfg. Co.
 
Legal Proceedings
 
The company is not a party in any bankruptcy, receivership or other legal proceeding.
 
Employees
 
As of June 30, 2008, the company employed directly and through its subsidiaries approximately 88 individuals in the United States and China, consisting of 5 executives and managers, 7 technical personnel, 3 sales and marketing personnel, and 17 administrative and support personnel, and 56 production personnel. The employees are not currently represented by any labor union or similar collective bargaining group.
 
Risk Factors
 
Risks Related to Our Business
 
We anticipate that a significant portion of our revenue will be from our sale of gears to one single customer. We have considerable risk related to the reliance on the sole customer which could have a detrimental consequence to our long term viability.
 
We anticipate that a significant portion of our revenues in the nearer term will be from the sale of gear products to Zhejiang Xinchai Co., Ltd. We face risks inherent in relying on a single customer for our most important products. If Zhejiang Xinchai Co., Ltd. experiences any events that affect its purchase of our products, there could be considerable detrimental consequences to our financial results and long term viability.
 
Our revenues will decrease if there is less demand for industrial and agricultural equipment or medium and light duty commercial vehicles in which our products are installed.
 
Our principal customers are manufacturers of engines, gearboxes and industrial equipment. Our products are part of the larger end product of these manufacturers, including things such as fork lifts, excavators, construction equipment, tractors, pumps and other machinery. If sales of gearboxes, industrial and agricultural equipment or medium and light duty commercial vehicles decrease, then the demand for our major products and our revenues would likewise decrease.
 
We could be under downward pricing pressures on our automobile parts and gear and gearbox products from our customers and competitors which may adversely affect our growth, profit margins and net income.
 
We could face downward pricing pressure from our customers and competitors as products similar to ours are sourced in different developing economies, other manufacturers offer better priced products and improved products in the market place. To retain our existing customers and gain new ones, we will have to continue to keep our unit prices competitive and possibly improve or expand our product offerings. In view of our need to maintain competitive prices on our products, our growth, profit margins and net income will be affected if we cannot effectively continue to control our sourcing and other costs.
 
-10-

 
Our contracts with our customers generally will be short-term and do not require the purchase of a minimum amount, which may result in periods of time during which we have limited orders for our products.
 
Our customers generally do not provide long-term volume purchase commitments. Although we anticipate receiving non-binding purchase plans from significant customers who will have continuing demand for certain products, these plans provide only purchase forecasts and state terms such as price, payment method, payment period, quality standards and inspection and similar matters rather than provide firm, long-term commitments to purchase products. As we are not likely to have many long term contracts for the majority of our sales, we could have periods during which we have no or only limited orders for our products, but will continue to have to pay the costs to maintain our work force and our operating facilities and to service our indebtedness without the benefit of current revenues.
 
We will face short lead-times for delivery of products to customers. Failure to meet delivery deadlines could result in the loss of customers and damage to our reputation and goodwill.
 
Our customers’ purchase agreements typically contain short lead-times for the delivery of products, leading to production and manufacturer supply schedules that can reduce our profit margins on the products procured from our suppliers. Our suppliers may lack sufficient capacity at any given time to meet all of our customers’ demands if orders exceed their production capacity. We will strive for rapid response to customer demand which can lead to reduced purchasing efficiency and increased procurement costs, therefore reducing margins. If we are unable to sufficiently meet our customers’ demands, we may lose our customers. Moreover, failure to meet customer demands may damage our reputation and goodwill.
 
If our selling efforts generate growth in demand, we may not be able to respond effectively if our capacity or sources of supply or capital are not adequate, resulting in lost business opportunity.
 
If our marketing plans result in market growth and demand for our products, we will be required to deliver larger volumes of products to our customers. Meeting customer order demand will require us to increase our capacity to produce, or ability to source quality products. Such demand would require us to expand our current production capacities, or it will necessitate our securing additional qualified suppliers. In addition, we may require more working capital than we currently have available to support new supply arrangements or additional inventory. The failure to meet demand for our products may result in customers seeking other sources of supply and may adversely affect our reputation as a ready and consistent supplier.
 
Because of market conditions, we will have to grant relatively long payment terms for accounts receivable which can adversely affect our cash flow.
 
As is customary in China, for competitive reasons, we grant relatively long payment terms to most of our China based customers (generally 45-90 days). As a result of the size of many of our orders, these payment terms may adversely affect our cash flow and our ability to fund our operations out of our operating cash flow. In addition, the reserves we establish for our receivables may not prove to be adequate in view of an actual experience of bad debts. The failure of our customers to pay us timely would negatively affect our working capital, which could in turn adversely affect our cash flow.
 
Because our customers are likely to be large manufacturers, they generally will be placing large orders for our products and require their prompt delivery which will impact our working capital. If our customers do not use our products and sell the final end products in a timely fashion to generate their income, they, in turn may not pay us in a timely fashion. This failure to pay our invoices in a timely manner may defer or delay further product orders from us, which may adversely affect our cash flows, sales or income in subsequent periods.
 
-11-

 
We may not be able to finance the development of new products which could negatively impact our competitiveness.
 
Our future operating results will depend, to some extent, on our ability to continue to provide new products that compare favorably on the basis of cost and performance with the products of our competitors. Some of our competitors have design and manufacturing capabilities and technologies that compete well with our products, particularly in markets outside of China. We plan to conduct research and development on a number of new products as we implement our business plans. Some of these activities may require a substantial outlay of capital. To remain competitive, we believe that in the future we will have to incur product development expense and invest in research of new products. These costs will result in greater operating expenses. All of these factors will create demands on our working capital and our ability to fund our current and future marketing and distribution activities and the expansion of our business.
 
We will receive a significant portion of our revenues from a small number of customers which may make it difficult to negotiate attractive prices for our products and exposes us to risks of substantial losses if we lose certain of these customers.
 
We anticipate that a significant portion of our revenues will be dependant on a small number of customers. Dependence on a few major customers could make it difficult to negotiate attractive prices for our products and could expose us to the risk of substantial losses if a single dominant customer stops purchasing our products. In such event, unless we are able to replace a terminating customer, we would suffer a loss of revenue and net income.
 
Our ability to effectively implement our business strategy depends upon, among other factors, the successful recruitment and retention of additional skilled and experienced management and other key personnel, and we cannot assure that we will be able to hire or retain such employees.
 
We must attract, recruit and retain a sizeable workforce of technically competent management and employees, particularly in the areas of marketing and sales, production and technical personnel. These individuals can be difficult to find in China, and as the economy in China expands, there is increasing competition for these types of educated and trained workers. We cannot give assurance that we will be able to find, hire or retain such management persons and employees, or even if we are able to so hire such persons, that the financial costs therefrom may have an adverse affect on our net income.
 
It may be difficult to find or integrate acquisitions which could have an adverse effect on our expansion plans.
 
Although we have no commitments or agreements for any acquisitions at this time, a component of our growth strategy is to invest in or establish strategic alliances such as joint ventures with other companies, or acquire companies or divisions of companies that design, manufacture or distribute complementary products such as other sizes or designs of diesel engines, gearboxes or automotive parts. We may be unable to identify suitable investments or acquisition candidates or to make these investments, alliances or acquisitions on a commercially reasonable basis, if at all. If we complete an investment, alliance or acquisition, we may not realize the anticipated benefits from the transaction.
 
Integrating an acquired company, division or product line is complex, distracting and time consuming, as well as a potentially expensive process. The successful integration of an acquisition would require us to:
 
 
·
integrate and retain key management, sales, research and development, and other personnel;
 
 
·
incorporate the acquired products or capabilities into our offerings both from an engineering and sales and marketing perspective;
 
-12-

 
 
·
coordinate research and development efforts;
 
 
·
integrate and support pre-existing supplier, distribution and customer relationships; and
 
 
·
consolidate duplicate facilities and functions and combine back office accounting, order processing and support functions.
 
The geographic distance between the companies, the complexity of the technologies and operations being integrated and the disparate corporate cultures being combined may increase the difficulties of combining an acquired company. Acquired businesses are likely to have different standards, controls, contracts, procedures and policies, making it more difficult to implement and harmonize company-wide financial, accounting, billing, information and other systems. Management’s focus on integrating operations may distract attention from our day-to-day business and may disrupt key research and development, marketing or sales efforts.
 
The cyclical nature of industrial and agricultural equipment and medium and light duty commercial vehicle production and sales could result in a reduction in gears and gearboxes sales, which could adversely affect our financial liquidity.
 
Our sales to manufacturers rely on industrial and agricultural equipment and medium and light duty commercial vehicle production and sales by our customers, which are highly cyclical and depend on general economic conditions and other factors, including consumer spending and preferences. They also can be affected by government policies, labor relations issues, regulatory requirements, and other factors, which could give rise to fluctuations in the demand for our products.
 
Increasing costs of goods from our suppliers as a result of increasing costs for manufactured components and raw materials may adversely affect our profitability.
 
A broad range of manufactured components and raw materials are used in the production of gears and gearboxes. The prices of these products are increasing as a result of the growth of the Chinese economy. Our suppliers may further increase raw materials and components prices. Because it may be difficult for us to pass the increased costs on to our customers, any significant increase in the prices of our purchased goods could materially increase our operating costs and adversely affect our profit margins and profitability.
 
We may be subject to product liability and warranty and recall claims, which may increase the costs of doing business and adversely affect our reputation, financial condition and liquidity.
 
We face an inherent business risk of exposure to product liability and warranty claims if our products actually or allegedly fail to perform as expected or the use of our products results, or are alleged to result, in bodily injury and/or property damage. We may be exposed to potential liability even if we have product liability insurance. We cannot give any assurance that we will not incur significant costs to defend these claims or that we will not experience any product liability losses in the future. In addition, if any of our designed products are or are alleged to be defective, we may be required to participate in a recall of such products. We cannot assure you that the future costs associated with providing product warranties and/or bearing the cost of repair or replacement of our products will not have an adverse effect on our financial condition and liquidity.
 
We are subject to environmental and safety regulations, which may increase our compliance costs.
 
We are subject to the requirements of environmental and occupational safety and health laws and regulations in China and other countries where we sell our products. To the extent that we expect to expand our operations into other geographic areas, we will become subject to such laws and regulations of those countries as well. We cannot provide assurance that at all times we have been or will be in full compliance with all of these requirements, or that we will not incur material costs or liabilities in connection with these requirements. The capital requirements and other expenditures that may be necessary to comply with environmental requirements could increase and become a material expense of doing business.
 
-13-

 
Our business depends on our ability to protect and enforce our intellectual property effectively which may be difficult particularly in China.
 
The success of our business depends in some measure on the legal protection of proprietary rights in the technology we hold. We will protect our proprietary rights in our products and operations through contractual obligations, including nondisclosure agreements. If these contractual measures fail to protect our proprietary rights, any advantage those proprietary rights provide us would be negated.
 
Monitoring infringement of intellectual property rights is difficult, and we cannot be certain that the steps we have taken will prevent unauthorized use of our intellectual property and know-how, particularly in China and other countries in which the laws may not protect our proprietary rights as fully as the laws of the United States. Accordingly, other parties, including competitors, may duplicate our products using our proprietary technologies. Pursuing legal remedies against persons infringing our patents or otherwise improperly using our proprietary information is a costly and time consuming process that would divert management’s attention and other resources from the conduct of our other business, and could cause delays and other problems with the marketing and sales of our products, as well as delays in deliveries.
 
Our commercial viability depends significantly on our ability to operate without infringing the patents and other proprietary rights of third parties.
 
In the event that our technologies infringe or violate the patent or other proprietary rights of third parties, we may be prevented from pursuing product development, commercialization or distribution of our products that utilize such technologies. There may be patents held by others of which we are unaware that contain claims that our products or operations infringe. In addition, given the complexities and uncertainties of patent laws, there may be patents of which we know that we may ultimately be held to infringe, particularly if the claims of the patent are determined to be broader than we believe them to be. As a result, avoiding patent infringement may be difficult.
 
If a third party claims that we infringe its patents, any of the following may occur:
 
 
·
we may become liable for substantial damages for past infringement if a court decides that our technologies infringe upon a competitor’s patent;
 
 
·
a court may prohibit us from selling or licensing our product without a license from the patent holder, which may not be available on commercially acceptable terms or at all, or which may require us to pay substantial royalties or grant cross-licenses to our patents; and
 
 
·
we may have to redesign our product so that it does not infringe upon others’ patent rights, which may not be possible or could require substantial funds or time.
 
In addition, employees, consultants, contractors, suppliers and others may use the trade secret information of others in their work for us or disclose our trade secret information to others. Either of these events could lead to disputes over the ownership of inventions derived from that information or expose us to potential damages or other penalties. If any of these events occurs, our business will suffer and the market price of our common stock will likely decline.
 
-14-

 
Our international expansion plans subject us to risks inherent in doing business internationally, such as protectionist limitations, higher sales costs and additional importation taxes, all of which would affect our profitability.
 
Our long-term business strategy relies on the expansion of our international sales outside China by targeting markets, such as Europe and the United States. Risks affecting our international expansion include challenges caused by distance, language and cultural differences, conflicting and changing laws and regulations, international import and export legislation, trading and investment policies, foreign currency fluctuations, the burdens of complying with a wide variety of laws and regulations, protectionist laws and business practices that favor local businesses in some countries, foreign tax consequences, higher costs associated with doing business internationally, restrictions on the export or import of technology, difficulties in staffing and managing international operations, trade and tariff restrictions, and variations in tariffs, quotas, taxes and other market barriers. These risks could harm our international expansion efforts, which in turn could materially and adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition.
 
Risks Related to Management
 
We do not intend to pay dividends on shares of our common stock in the foreseeable future.
 
We have never paid cash dividends on our common stock. Our current board of directors does not anticipate that we will pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Instead, we intend to retain future earnings for reinvestment in our business and/or to fund future acquisitions. Determination of net income under PRC accounting standards and regulations may differ from determination under U.S. GAAP in significant aspects, such as the use of different principles for recognition of revenues and expenses. Under PRC law, our PRC joint venture is required to set aside a portion of its net income each year to fund designated statutory reserve funds. Therefore, there may be limitations on the availability of cash for the payment of dividends.
 
We currently have only one independent director and there is no assurance that any additional independent directors will be appointed or what their qualifications may be if they are appointed.
 
We currently have only one independent director, Mr. Haining Liu. We may not be able to identify independent directors qualified to be on our board to increase the independence of the board or replace any independent directors. There is no assurance that we will have an independent board at any time.
 
We may be exposed to potential risks relating to our internal controls over financial reporting and our ability to have those controls attested to by our independent auditors.
 
As directed by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 or SOX 404, the Securities and Exchange Commission adopted rules requiring public companies to include a report of management on the company’s internal controls over financial reporting in their annual reports, including Form 10-K or 10-KSB. We can provide no assurance that we will meet all of the requirements imposed thereby. There can be no assurance that we will receive a positive attestation from our independent auditors. In the event there are significant deficiencies or material weaknesses identified in our internal controls, and we cannot remediate in a timely manner, we may not be able to receive a positive attestation from our independent auditors with respect to our internal controls, investors and others may lose confidence in the reliability of our financial statements.
 
Risks Related to Doing Business in China
 
We are subject to the risks associated with doing business in the People’s Republic of China.
 
The majority of our operations and assets are located in China, and we anticipate that China will be our primary sales base. Therefore, we are subject to special considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies operating in North America and Western Europe. These include risks associated with, among other things, the political, economic and legal environments and foreign currency exchange environment of China which is a partially controlled economy. Our results may be adversely affected by changes in the political and social conditions in China and by changes in governmental policies with respect to social and commercial laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency controls, conversion restrictions and remittances abroad. The recent changes in the tax laws will also have an impact on the operations of our company.

Although the majority of productive assets in China are owned by the Chinese government, in the past years the government has implemented economic reform measures that emphasize decentralization and encourage private economic activity. Because these economic reform measures may be inconsistent or ineffectual, there are no assurances that:
 
 
·
We will be able to capitalize on economic reforms;
 
 
·
The Chinese government will continue its pursuit of economic reform policies;
 
 
·
The economic policies, even if pursued, will be successful;
 
 
·
Economic policies will not be significantly altered from time to time; and
 
 
·
Business operations in China will not become subject to the risk of nationalization.
 
Economic reform policies or nationalization could result in a total loss of investment in our common stock.
 
Since 1979, the Chinese government has implemented policies to reform its economic system, which reforms have accelerated in the last 15 years. Because many reforms are unprecedented or experimental in the China context, they are expected to be changed over time. Other political, economic and social factors, such as political changes, changes in the rates of economic growth, unemployment or inflation, or in the disparities in per capita wealth between regions within China, could lead to readjustment of the reform measures so far taken. Any refining and readjustment may negatively affect our operations or our profits.
 
Over the last few years, China’s economy has registered a particularly high growth rate. Recently, there have been indications that rates of inflation have increased. For example, employee costs are increasing as are the costs of raw materials. In response, the Chinese government has taken some measures to curb this excessively expansive economy. These measures include restrictions on the availability of domestic credit, reducing the purchasing capability of certain of its customers, and limited re-centralization of the approval process for purchases of some foreign products. There has been some revaluation of the currency which has increased the costs of imported products. The Chinese government may adopt additional measures to further combat inflation, including the establishment of freezes or restraints on certain projects or markets. These measures may adversely affect our manufacturing operations and margins.
 
To date, the basic reforms to China’s economic system have not adversely impacted our operations and are not expected to adversely impact operations in the foreseeable future. We, however, will be affected by the change in the tax structure and rising costs of an expanding and increasingly sophisticated economy. We cannot assure you that the reforms to China’s economic system will continue or that we will not be adversely affected by changes in China’s political, economic, and social conditions and by changes in policies of the Chinese government, such as changes in laws and regulations, measures which may be introduced to control inflation and changes in the rate or method of taxation.
 
On November 11, 2001, China signed an agreement to become a member of the World Trade Organization, sometimes referred to as the WTO, the international body that sets most trade rules, further integrating China into the global economy and significantly reducing the barriers to international commerce. China’s membership in the WTO was effective on December 11, 2001. China has agreed upon its accession to the WTO to reduce tariffs and non-tariff barriers, remove investment restrictions and provide trading and distribution rights for foreign firms. The tariff rate reductions and other enhancements will enable us to develop better investment strategies. In addition, the WTO’s dispute settlement mechanism provides a credible and effective tool to enforce members’ commercial rights. Also, with China’s entry to the WTO, it is believed that the relevant laws on foreign investment in China will be amplified and will follow common practices.
 
-16-

 
The legal authorities in China are in the process of changing heretofore tax and fee benefits provided to foreign investors and companies to encourage development within the country such that these benefits will be lessened or removed with the consequence that expenses may rise and adversely impact margins and net income.
 
The legal authorities are in the process of changing business income tax and fee benefits that have been available to foreign investors and foreign companies operating in China and reducing the availability of tax holidays for new enterprises. In the near term, there will be changes that reduce or eliminate many, if not all, the tax and other governmental fee advantages that heretofore have been available to foreign entities and newly created entities whether or not such new entities are foreign. The goal is to institute greater equalization of tax and government fee treatment of all corporate and similar entities organized and operating in China. China is being encouraged to create this more equal treatment because of its WTO obligations and public opinion within China. There may be phase-ins of various taxes and fees for entities that currently benefit from either no or lower tax rates and fees compared to wholly Chinese companies and entities, but there can be no assurance of this. Even if there are phase-in periods, the length of such periods is not known. There may also be extended tax benefits for certain industries. Overall, it is expected that the cost of operating in China will increase for those companies and entities that have had various tax and fee advantages in the past. As a result, Usunco, a company which has had and expected to have benefits from some forms of preferential tax and fee rates, expects that in the near term certain of its costs will increase which may have an adverse impact on operating margins and will have an impact on net income.
 
The Chinese legal system is not fully developed and has inherent uncertainties that could limit the legal protections available to investors.
 
The Chinese legal system is a system based on written statutes and their interpretation by the Supreme People’s Court. Prior court decisions may be cited for reference but have limited legal precedents. Since 1979, the Chinese government has been developing a comprehensive system of commercial laws, and considerable progress has been made in introducing laws and regulations dealing with economic matters such as foreign investment, corporate organization and governance, commerce, taxation and trade. Two examples are the promulgation of the Contract Law of the People’s Republic of China to unify the various economic contract laws into a single code, which went into effect on October 1, 1999, and the Securities Law of the People’s Republic of China, which went into effect on July 1, 1999. However, because these laws and regulations are relatively new, and because of the limited volume of published cases and their non-binding nature, interpretation and enforcement of these laws and regulations involve uncertainties. In addition, as the Chinese legal system develops, changes in such laws and regulations, their interpretation or their enforcement may have a material adverse effect on our business operations.
 
Enforcement of regulations in China may be inconsistent.
 
Although the Chinese government has introduced new laws and regulations to modernize its securities and tax systems, China does not yet possess a comprehensive body of business law. As a result, the enforcement, interpretation and implementation of regulations may prove to be inconsistent and it may be difficult to enforce contracts.
 
We may experience lengthy delays in resolution of legal disputes.
 
As China has not developed a dispute resolution mechanism similar to the Western court system, dispute resolution over Chinese projects and joint ventures can be difficult and we cannot assure you that any dispute involving our business in China can be resolved expeditiously and satisfactorily.

Impact of the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act on our business.
 
We are subject to the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, which generally prohibits United States companies from engaging in bribery or other prohibited payments to foreign officials for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business. Foreign companies, including some that may compete with us, are not subject to these prohibitions. Corruption, extortion, bribery, pay-offs, theft and other fraudulent practices occur from time-to-time in mainland China. We have attempted to implement safeguards to prevent and discourage such practices by our employees and agents. We cannot assure you, however, that our employees or other agents will not engage in such conduct for which we might be held responsible. If our employees or other agents are found to have engaged in such practices, we could suffer severe penalties and other consequences that may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
 
It may be difficult to serve us with legal process or enforce judgments against our management or us.
 
Most of our assets are located in China. In addition, some of our directors and officers are non-residents of the United States, and all, or substantial portions of the assets of such non-residents, are located outside the United States. As a result, it may not be possible to effect service of process within the United States upon such persons. Moreover, there is doubt as to whether the courts of China would enforce:
 
 
·
Judgments of United States courts against us, our directors or our officers based on the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state; or
 
 
·
Original actions brought in China relating to liabilities against non-residents or us based upon the securities laws of the United States or any state.
 
The Chinese government could change its policies toward private enterprise or even nationalize or expropriate it, which could result in the total loss of your investment.
 
Our business may be adversely affected by political, economic and social developments in China. Over the past several years, the Chinese government has pursued economic reform policies including the encouragement of private economic activity and greater economic decentralization. The Chinese government may not continue to pursue these policies or may significantly alter them to our detriment from time to time with little, if any, prior notice. Changes in policies, laws and regulations or in their interpretation or the imposition of confiscatory taxation, restrictions on currency conversion, restrictions or prohibitions on dividend payments to stockholders, devaluations of currency or the nationalization or other expropriation of private enterprises could have a material adverse effect on our business. Nationalization or expropriation could even result in the total loss of our investment in China and in the total loss of your investment.
 
Our primary source of funds for dividend and other distributions will be from our operating subsidiary in China which is subject to various legal and contractual restrictions and uncertainties as well as the practice of such subsidiary in declaring dividends, and our ability to pay dividends or make other distributions to our shareholders is negatively affected by those restrictions, uncertainties and dividend practices.
 
We conduct our core business operations mainly through our Chinese joint venture. As a result, our profits available for distribution to our shareholders are dependent on the profits available for distribution from our joint venture. Under current PRC law, our PRC joint venture is regarded as a foreign-invested enterprise in China. Although dividends paid by foreign invested enterprises will be subject to a low withholding rate in the future, PRC law permits payment of dividends only out of net income as determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards and regulations. Determination of net income under PRC accounting standards and regulations may differ from determination under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles in significant aspects, such as the use of different principles for recognition of revenues and expenses. Under PRC law, our PRC joint venture is required to set aside 10% of its net income each year to fund a designated statutory reserve fund until such funds reach 50% of registered share capital. These reserves are not distributable as cash dividends. As a result, our primary internal source of funds for dividend payments is subject to these and other legal and contractual restrictions and uncertainties, which in turn may limit or impair our ability to pay dividends to our shareholders although we do not presently anticipate paying any dividends. Moreover, any transfer of funds from us to our PRC joint venture, either as a shareholder loan or as an increase in registered capital, is subject to registration with or approval by PRC governmental authorities. These limitations on the flow of funds between us and our PRC joint venture could restrict our ability to act in response to changing market conditions. Additionally to date, our PRC Joint Venture has not distributed any profits and does not anticipate doing so for the near term.

Foreign Exchange Control Risks
 
Fluctuations in the value of the Chinese Renminbi relative to foreign currencies could affect our operating results.
 
A majority of our revenues and expenses are currently conducted in China, whose currency is the Chinese Renminbi. However, we use the United States dollar for financial reporting purposes. The value of Chinese Renminbi against the United States dollar and other currencies may fluctuate. The Chinese government announced that it is valuing the exchange rate of the Chinese Renminbi against a number of currencies, rather than just exclusively to the United States dollar. Although the Chinese government has stated its intention to support the value of the Chinese Renminbi, we cannot assure you that the government will not revalue it. As our operations are primarily in China, any significant revaluation of the Chinese Renminbi may materially and adversely affect our cash flows, revenues and financial condition. For example, to the extent that we need to convert United States dollars into Chinese Renminbi for our operations, appreciation of this currency against the United States dollar could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Conversely, if we decide to convert our Chinese Renminbi into United States dollars for other business purposes and the United States dollar appreciates against this currency, the United States dollar equivalent of the Chinese Renminbi we convert would be reduced. To date, we have not engaged in any hedging transactions in connection with our operations.
 
The PRC government imposes control over the conversion of the Chinese Renminbi into foreign currencies. Under the current unified floating exchange rate system, the People’s Bank of China publishes an exchange rate, which we refer to as the PBOC exchange rate, based on the previous day’s dealings in the inter-bank foreign exchange market. Financial institutions authorized to deal in foreign currency may enter into foreign exchange transactions at exchange rates within an authorized range above or below the PBOC exchange rate according to market conditions.
 
Pursuant to the Foreign Exchange Control Regulations of the PRC issued by the State Council which came into effect on April 1, 1996, and the Regulations on the Administration of Foreign Exchange Settlement, Sale and Payment of the PRC which came into effect on July 1, 1996, regarding foreign exchange control, conversion of Renminbi into foreign exchange by Foreign Investment Enterprises, or FIEs, for use on current account items, including the distribution of dividends and profits to foreign investors, is permissible. FIEs are permitted to convert their after-tax dividends and profits to foreign exchange and remit such foreign exchange to their foreign exchange bank accounts in the PRC.
 
Conversion of Renminbi into foreign currencies for capital account items, including direct investment, loans, and security investment, is still subject to certain restrictions. On January 14, 1997, the State Council amended the Foreign Exchange Control Regulations and added, among other things, an important provision, which provides that the PRC government shall not impose restrictions on recurring international payments and transfers under current account items.
 
-19-

 
Enterprises in the PRC (including FIEs) which require foreign exchange for transactions relating to current account items, may, without approval of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange, or SAFE, effect payment from their foreign exchange account or convert and pay at the designated foreign exchange banks by providing valid receipts and proofs.
 
Convertibility of foreign exchange in respect of capital account items, such as direct investment and capital contribution, is still subject to certain restrictions, and prior approval from the SAFE or its relevant branches must be sought.
 
Risks Related to Our Common Stock
 
An active trading market for Equicap’s common stock may not develop or be sustained.
 
Currently, there is modest trading in our common stock. There can be no assurance that an active trading market will develop for such shares. If an active public trading market does not develop or continue, you may have limited liquidity and may be forced to hold your investment in the company for an indefinite period of time. Further, the prices and volume of trading in the common stock may be adversely affected if its securities are not listed or quoted.
 
-20-

 
There may be substantial sales of the common stock by stockholders which could cause the price of the stock to fall.
 
Future sales of substantial amounts of the common stock in the public market, if one develops, or the perception that such sales might occur, could cause the market price of its common stock to decline and could impair the value of an investment in the common stock and its ability to raise equity capital in the future. All the outstanding shares may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 as applicable to former shell companies, subject to the limitations on shares held by affiliates, and certain of those shares have registration rights granted to certain investors in March 2007. The sales of common stock by the stockholders able to sell under Rule 144 or having registration rights may depress any trading market that develops.
 
The common stock of Equicap will be subject to the “penny stock” rules for the foreseeable future.
 
Equicap is subject now and expects in the future to be subject to the SEC’s “penny stock” rules if its common stock sells below $5.00 per share. Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00. The penny stock rules require broker-dealers to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC which provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer must also provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. The bid and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and salesperson compensation information must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to completing the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer’s confirmation.
 
In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction, the broker and/or dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction. The penny stock rules are burdensome and may reduce purchases of any offerings and reduce the trading activity for the common stock. As long as the common stock is subject to the penny stock rules, the holders of its shares may find it more difficult to sell their securities.
 
Equicap’s articles of incorporation authorize the issuance of shares of preferred stock, the rights, preferences, designations and limitations of which may be set by the board of directors.
 
Equicap’s articles of incorporation have authorized the issuance of up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock in the discretion of its board of directors. Any undesignated shares of preferred stock may be issued by the Equicap board of directors; no further shareholder action is required. If issued, the rights, preferences, designations and limitations of such preferred stock would be set by the board of directors and could operate to the disadvantage of the holders of outstanding common stock. Such terms could include, among others, preferences as to dividends and distributions on liquidation, or could be used to prevent possible corporate takeovers.
 
Item 2. Description of Properties
 
The company has offices in the United States and China and one operating facility in China.
 
The principal executive office of the company is located in Santa Anna, California, which space is rented on a month to month basis for a total annual rental of $5,000.  The other executive office is located in the city of Hangzhou in China, where the company leases an aggregate of approximately 4,000 square feet at an approximate, aggregate annual rental of $34,252.  The lease has term of one year. These two offices mainly handle general corporate affairs, administrative matters, accounting activities and other supporting functions.

The ZhongChai JV and Shengte conduct operations from a facility in Xinchang County, Zhejiang Province in China, with an aggregate leased space of approximately 16,000 square feet, for annual rental of approximately $21,000.
 
Item 3. Legal Proceedings
 
The Company is not currently a party to any material legal proceedings.

Market Information
 
The company became subject to Securities Exchange Act reporting requirements in July 2000. The symbol “EQPI.OB” was assigned for the common stock at that time. There is a very limited trading market for our stock. During fiscal year 2007, only 200 shares of our stock traded on the OTCBB. During fiscal year 2008, our stock traded on the OTCBB with a high price of $2.00 and a low price of $0.15. There can be no assurance that a liquid market for our securities will ever develop. The following table sets forth for the periods indicated the high and low prices per share traded for our common stock as reported on the OTCBB.

Our common stock is designated as “penny stock” and thus may be illiquid for that reason. The SEC has adopted rules (Rules 15g-2 through l5g-6 of the Exchange Act), which regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in “penny stocks.” Penny stocks generally are any non-NASDAQ equity securities with a price of less than $5.00, subject to certain exceptions. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document to provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customers account, to make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity, if any, in the secondary market for a stock that is subject to the penny stock rules. Since our common shares are subject to the penny stock rules, persons holding or receiving such shares may find it more difficult to sell their shares. The market liquidity for the shares could be severely and adversely affected by limiting the ability of broker-dealers to sell the shares and the ability of stockholders to sell their stock in any secondary market.
 
The trading volume in our common stock has been and is extremely limited. The limited nature of the trading market can create the potential for significant changes in the trading price for the common stock as a result of relatively minor changes in the supply and demand for our common stock and perhaps without regard to our business activities.
 
The market price of our common stock may be subject to significant fluctuations in response to numerous factors, including: variations in our annual or quarterly financial results or those of our competitors; conditions in the economy in general; announcements of key developments by competitors; loss of key personnel; unfavorable publicity affecting our industry or us; adverse legal events affecting us; and sales of our common stock by existing stockholders.
 
Holders
 
We have approximately 429 record holders of our common stock. We believe that in addition to the record ownership there are additional beneficial owners who hold their shares in street name or through other nominees, but we have not ascertained the number of such persons.
 
Dividend Policy
 
We plan to retain all earnings generated by our operations, if any, for use in our business. We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends to our stockholders in the foreseeable future. The payment of future dividends on the common stock and the rate of such dividends, if any, and when not restricted, will be determined by our board of directors in light of our earnings, financial condition, capital requirements, the requirements of PRC law and other factors.
 
Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

Item 6. Management’s Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation
 
The following is management’s discussion and analysis of certain significant factors that have affected our financial position and operating results during the periods included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, as well as information relating to the plans of our current management. This report includes forward-looking statements. Generally, the words “believes,” “anticipates,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “continue,” and similar expressions or the negative thereof or comparable terminology are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, those described in the “Risk Factors” set forth in Item 1 – Description of Business – Risk Factors and the matters set forth in other reports or documents we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission from time to time, which could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those projected. Undue reliance should not be placed on these forward-looking statements that speak only as of the date hereof. We undertake no obligation to update these forward-looking statements.
 
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the related notes included in this report.
 
Overview
 
Equicap, Inc. (“Equicap”) does business through its subsidiary, Usunco Automotive Limited (“Usunco”) which in turn operates through IBC Automotive Products, Inc. (“IBC”), its wholly-owned subsidiary established under the laws of the State of California (the “North America/Auto Parts Segment”), and through Zhejiang ZhongChai Machinery Co., Ltd. (the “ZhongChai JV”), a 75%-owned joint venture established under the laws of the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC” or “China”) and Zhejiang Shengte Transmission Co., Ltd.(“Shengte”) a company established under the laws of the PRC and wholly owned by ZhongChai JV (the “China/Gear Segment”). Through its operating subsidiaries, the company is engaged in the distribution of automotive parts primarily in North America, and manufacturing and sale of gears and gearboxes in China.
 
Equicap was a public “shell” company with nominal assets until March 9, 2007, when it conducted a share exchange with the equity owners of Usunco (“Share Exchange”) and sold common stock in a private placement to eleven accredited and institutional investors for gross proceeds of $12,000,000. Prior to the Share Exchange, its sole business had been to identify, evaluate and investigate various companies with the intent that, if such investigation warranted, a reverse merger transaction be negotiated and completed pursuant to which Equicap would acquire a target company with an operating business with the intent of continuing the acquired company’s business as a publicly held entity.
 
-24-

 
Share Exchange
 
Equicap and Usunco entered a Share Exchange Agreement on March 7, 2007 which was consummated on March 9, 2007. Under the terms of the Exchange Agreement, Equicap acquired all the outstanding equity securities of Usunco in exchange for 18,323,944 shares of common stock of Equicap, and thereby Equicap acquired Usunco as a wholly-owned subsidiary.
 
Upon execution of the Exchange Agreement, Mr. Peter Wang was appointed a director and the president of Equicap. Mr. Thomas W. Colligan, the sole officer and director of Equicap before the Share Exchange, submitted his resignation letter resigning from all executive offices, effective on March 9, 2007, and with respect to his position as a director, effective on March 29, 2007. On March 29, 2007, additional persons were appointed to the board of directors and as management persons.
 
In connection with the Share Exchange, Equicap engaged Fountainhead Capital Partners Limited (“Fountainhead”), to act as a financial advisor. At the closing of the Share Exchange, Fountainhead was paid an advisory fee of $450,000 by Equicap.
 
In connection with the Share Exchange, vFinance Investments, Inc. (“vFinance”), for advice in connection with the transaction, was issued 161,633 shares of common stock as compensation. The shares were issued as restricted stock. These shares have registration rights.
 
Since the former shareholders of Usunco owned approximately 65% of the shares of common stock of Equicap at the time of its acquisition of Usunco, the former shareholders of Usunco had control over Equicap immediately after the acquisition. As a result, Usunco was deemed to have been the acquiring company in the Share Exchange for accounting purposes, and the Share Exchange transaction was treated as a reverse acquisition with Usunco as the acquirer and Equicap as the acquired party. Equicap changed its fiscal year to end June 30.
 
Conversion of Convertible Note of Equicap
 
Equicap and Fountainhead entered into a convertible note on September 30, 2006, the principal of which was for working capital and discharge of accrued payables of Equicap. As part of the Share Exchange, Fountainhead agreed to convert the outstanding principal and accrued interest of approximately $100,000 into 702,132 shares of common stock, contingent on the closing of the Share Exchange. Upon the conversion, the note was cancelled. The shares were issued as restricted stock. Equicap agreed to register the shares issued in the conversion.
 
Private Placement Offering
 
As a condition to the Share Exchange, Equicap and Usunco conducted a private placement offering of its common stock to accredited, institutional investors in which Equicap raised gross proceeds of $12 million (“Offering”) from 11 investors under an exemption from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act. After commissions and expenses related to the Offering and the $450,000 advisory fee payable to Fountainhead, Equicap received net proceeds of approximately $10,000,000 in the Offering. The investors were issued an aggregate of 8,450,704 shares of common stock, representing approximately 30% of the issued and outstanding common stock of Equicap. The price per share of common stock was $1.42.
 
vFinance was the exclusive placement agent for the Offering. For their services as placement agent, Equicap paid vFinance a fee equal to approximately $983,000. Equicap also reimbursed vFinance its expenses of approximately $120,000. In addition, Equicap issued to vFinance a five-year warrant to purchase an aggregate of 422,535 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $2.13 per share (“Agent Warrant”). The warrant vests over a three-year period and terminates March 6, 2012.
 
-25-

 
In connection with the Offering, Equicap granted registration rights to the investors and the holders of the Agent Warrant, and provided for registration rights for certain former principal shareholders of Equicap through piggy-back rights for their respective shares of common stock. Equicap entered into one registration rights agreement with the aforementioned persons. Equicap agreed to register the sale of the 8,450,704 shares of common stock issued to investors in the Offering, the 161,633 shares of common stock issued to vFinance, the 422,535 shares of common stock underlying the Agent Warrant and the 1,161,632 shares held by the former principal shareholders of Equicap. In addition, if certain make good shares are distributed to the investors, Equicap will be obligated to register these shares in addition. If any of the above shares are not eligible for registration because of the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, when they are eligible for registration, Equicap will be obligated to take such action to have them registered for sale by the holder by filing successive registration statements. The initial registration statement for sale of the common shares was filed within the time limit of the registration rights agreement, and Equicap had to have the registration statement effective within 150 days of the closing date of the Offering, and if these actions are not achieved by those dates then Equicap must pay each of, and only, the investors 1% of the share purchase price paid by such investor for each month thereafter that the investors cannot publicly sell the shares of common stock covered by that registration statement The same penalties for the failure to file or have declared effective a registration statement within the stated time periods and maintain its effectiveness also apply to the subsequent required registration statements. The maximum penalties under the liquidated damages provision payable to the investors is 10% of the share purchase price paid by the investors in the Offering. The above timing and number of shares are subject to various conditions, and the registration statements are subject to the rules and regulations of the SEC and the staff interpretations thereof. The registration statements required for the investors and vFinance under the registration rights agreement must be kept effective until all the shares of these parties are sold or may be sold without limitation under then Rule 144k promulgated under the Securities Act (“Rule 144k”). Equicap did not meet the effectiveness deadline for the initial registration statement and paid $32,000 to the investors under the liquidated damages provision.
 
The former principal shareholders of Equicap who have piggy-back rights also have a demand registration right after all the shares of the investors and vFinance have either been sold or may be sold without limitation under Rule 144k. The company is obliged to keep this registration statement effective until all the shares have been sold or are eligible for sale under Rule 144k.
 
Equicap completed the capitalization of its PRC joint venture shortly after the above described private placement. Pursuant to PRC law, foreign joint ventures have to be capitalized pursuant to the terms of their approval. Equicap, through Usunco contributed $8,000,000 and its joint venture partner contributed $2,600,000, all of which will be used as working capital. Future capital contributions between the parties are to be on a 75% - 25% basis, with Usunco being the majority party.
 
Critical Accounting Policies And Estimates
 
Below is a description of accounting policies that we consider critical to the preparation and understanding of our financial statements. In addition, certain amounts included in or affecting our financial statements and related disclosure must be estimated, which requires us to make assumptions with respect to values or conditions which cannot be known with certainty at the time the financial statements are prepared. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The selection of critical accounting policies, the judgments and other uncertainties affecting the application of those policies and the sensitivity of reported results to changes in conditions and assumptions are factors to be considered when reviewing our consolidated financial statements.
 
We believe that the critical accounting policies set forth below involve the most significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. We regularly evaluate these policies, in light of historical results and experience, consultation with experts, trends and other methods we consider reasonable in the particular circumstances, as well as our forecasts as to how these might change in the future.
 
-26-

 
Principles of Consolidation
 
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the parent company and the subsidiaries. Inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 95, “Statement of Cash Flows,” the Company considers all highly liquid instruments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash and cash equivalents.
 
Accounts Receivable and Bad Debt Reserves
 
Trade accounts receivable are stated at the amount management expects to collect from balances outstanding at the end of the period. Based on its assessment of the credit history with customers having outstanding balances and current relationships with them, management makes conclusions whether any realization of losses on balances outstanding at the end of the period will be deemed uncollectible based on the age of the receivables. For the North America/Auto Parts segment, the Company reserves 5% of accounts receivable balances that have been outstanding for greater than 90 days. For the China/Gear segment, the Company reserves 0.5% of accounts receivable balances that have been outstanding below three months, 5% of accounts receivable balances that have been outstanding between three months and six months, 20% of receivable balances that have been outstanding within one year, 50% of receivable balances that have been outstanding for between one year and two years, and 100% of receivable balances that have been outstanding more than two years.
 
Inventory
 
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is calculated on the weighted-average basis and includes all costs to acquire and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. The Company evaluates the net realizable value of its inventories on a regular basis and record a provision for loss to reduce the computed weighted-average cost if it exceeds the net realizable value.
 
Property and Equipment
 
Property and equipment is recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Repairs and maintenance expenditures, which do not extend the useful lives of the related assets, are expensed as incurred.
 
Under SFAS No. 144 "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets", the Company's long-lived assets are evaluated for impairment when events or changes in business circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable. The Company also assesses these assets for impairment based on their estimated future cash flows. The Company has not incurred any losses in connection with the adoption of this statement.
 
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
 
Goodwill represents costs in excess of fair values assigned to the underlying net assets of acquired businesses. Goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives are not amortized. All other intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives. Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are subject to annual impairment testing using the guidance and criteria described in Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”. This testing compares carrying values to fair values and, when appropriate, the carrying value of these assets is reduced to fair value. As of June 30, 2008, the Company concluded that there were no impairments on goodwill or indefinite-lived intangibles.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue consists of sales of automotive parts, gears and gearboxes. In accordance with the provisions of Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 103, revenue is recognized when merchandise is shipped, title and risk of loss pass to the customer and collectibility is reasonably assured. Revenue is recorded as the sales price of goods and services, net of rebates and discounts and is reported on a gross basis. The gross basis is used mainly due to the fact that the Company acts as principal in each transaction and is responsible for fulfillment and acceptability of the products purchased, the Company takes title to its products before the products are ordered by its customers, the Company has risk of inventory loss as title of the products is transferred to the Company, the Company is responsible for collection of sales and delivery of products, and the Company does not act as an agent or broker and is not compensated on a commission or fee basis.

Sales Return and Warranties

Generally the company does not accept the return of products once sold to customers. The company generally provides a one-year limited warranty covering manufacturing defects and/or product functional failures. After evaluation and confirmation of customer complaints, the company either replaces the defective products or accepts returns by crediting the customer's account. Such replacements or returns as well as handling costs therefrom are passed through to the suppliers.

Advertising Costs

The Company expenses the cost of advertising as incurred. Advertising costs for the years ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 were insignificant.

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

The Company adopted SFAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income, which establishes rules for the reporting of comprehensive income and its components. In addition to net loss, comprehensive income (loss) includes all changes in equity during a period, except those resulting from investments by and distributions to owners. Items of comprehensive income include foreign currency translation adjustment.

Foreign Currency Translation

A significant portion of the Company's operations are conducted in China and the financial statements are translated from Chinese RMB, the functional currency, into U.S. Dollars in accordance with SFAS No. 52, "Foreign Currency Translation." Accordingly, all foreign currency assets and liabilities are translated at the period-end exchange rate and all revenues and expenses are translated at the average exchange rate for the period. The effects of translating the financial statements of foreign subsidiaries into U.S. Dollars are reported as a cumulative translation adjustment, a separate component of comprehensive income in stockholder's equity.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities”. This standard permits entities to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The purpose is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility. SFAS No. 159 provides companies with an option to report selected financial assets and liabilities at fair value. The objective of SFAS No.159 is to reduce both complexity in accounting for financial instruments and the volatility in earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently. SFAS No. 159 also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between companies and choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. SFAS No. 159 is effective for the Company on January 1, 2008. It is expected that the adoption of SFAS No. 159 will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB Statement No. 51.” SFAS No. 160 amends Accounting Research Bulletin (ARB) No. 51, “Consolidated Financial Statements,” to establish accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. SFAS No. 160 clarifies that a noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary, which is sometimes referred to as a minority interest, is an ownership interest in the consolidated entity that should be reported as a component of equity in the consolidated financial statements. Among other requirements, SFAS No. 160 requires consolidated net income to be reported at amounts that include the amounts attributable to both the parent and the noncontrolling interest. It also requires disclosure, on the face of the consolidated income statement, of the amounts of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and the noncontrolling interest. SFAS No. 160 is effective for the Company on January 1, 2009, and is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), “Business Combinations (Revised))”, (SFAS No. 141(R)), to replace SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations. SFAS No. 141(R) requires the use of the acquisition method of accounting, defines the acquirer, establishes the acquisition date and broadens the scope to all transactions and other events in which one entity obtains control over one or more other businesses. This statement is effective for business combinations or transactions entered into for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The Company is evaluating the impact of SFAS No. 141 (R).

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company considers the carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheet for current assets and current liabilities qualifying as financial instruments and approximating fair value.

Income Taxes

Deferred income taxes are computed using the asset and liability method, such that deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between financial reporting amounts and the tax basis of existing assets and liabilities based on currently enacted tax laws and tax rates in effect in the United States of America for the periods in which the differences are expected to reverse. Income tax expense is the tax payable for the period plus the change during the period in deferred income taxes. A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. No differences were noted between the book and tax bases of the Company’s assets and liabilities, respectively. Therefore, there are no deferred tax assets or liabilities for the year ended June 30, 2008. For the China/Gear segment, the Zhongchai JV is located in the PRC, and is therefore subject to central government and provincial and local income taxes within the PRC at the applicable tax rate on the taxable income as reported in the PRC statutory financial statements in accordance with relevant income tax laws. The standard corporate income tax rate is 25% from January 1, 2008, when China’s new tax law became effective, decreased from 33%.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses, and related disclosures at the date of the financial statements and during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Operating Results

    The Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2008 Compared to the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2007

Revenue

Revenue increased by $1,516,061 or 83% to $3,333,325 for the year ended June 30, 2008 compared with $1,817,264 for the year ended June 30, 2007. Revenue for the year ended June 30, 2008 consists of sales of automotive parts in North America and sales of gears and gearboxes in China, for $778,838 and $2,554,487, respectively. Revenue for the year ended June 30, 2007 consists of sales of automotive parts in North America and sales of diesel engines and gear products in China, for $1,324,819 and $492,445, respectively. The decrease in revenue from sale of auto parts in North America compared to last fiscal year was primarily due to fierce competition and the Company’s strategy to drop some smaller, low margin orders and customers during the year. Increase in gears sales in fiscal 2008 compared to last year was attributed to the Company’s expansion in production capacity and continuous marketing efforts, taking advantage of the growth of domestic market in China for gear and gearbox products in recent years as a result of the increase in Chinese domestic demand driven by country wide economic growth and urban expansion.

Cost of Sales and Gross Margin

Cost of sales was $2,641,814 for the year ended June 30, 2008, increasing by $1,014,075 or 62%, from $1,627,739 for the year ended June 30, 2007. The gross margin was approximately 21% for the year ended June 30, 2008 compared to approximately 10% for the year ended June 30, 2007. For the North America/Auto Parts segment, improvement in gross margin was mainly attributed to the Company’s strategy to focus on larger, high margin customers, to add some new products with higher profitability, and to drop some low margin business. For the China/Gears segment, improvement in gross margin was mainly attributed to the Company’s achievement of a larger economy of scale, and the ability to pass the effects of rising material prices onto down stream customers.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses consisted primarily of labor cost and related overhead costs for sales, marketing, finance, legal, human resources and general management. Such costs also include the expenses recognized for stock-based compensation pursuant to FAS 123(R).

SG&A expenses decreased by $165,356 to $1,348,102 in the year ended June 30, 2008 from $1,513,458 in year ended June 30, 2007. The high SG&A expenses for the year ended June 30, 2007 was mainly attributed to the recognition of expense of $897,131 as a result of the conversion of the outstanding convertible notes in aggregate principal amount and accrued interest of approximately $100,000 into 702,132 shares of common stock, at a discount to the sale price of the shares in the private placement offering. SG&A expenses for fiscal year 2008 mainly consist of selling expenses, and costs related to being a public company including professional services related to auditing, legal and other services, costs associated with the operating expenses in China, and non-cash expenses amounting to $108,789 recognized for stock based compensation related to stock options and warrants granted in the period pursuant to SFAS 123(R).

Unusual Charge

As elaborated in the section “Share Exchange and Private Placement”, in connection with the Offering, for the benefit of the investors, eight of the former shareholders of Usunco, some of whom are the officers and directors of Equicap, have agreed to place into escrow an aggregate of 10,140,846 shares of common stock issued in the Share Exchange. If the consolidated financial statements of Equicap for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2007, prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied, reflect either (i) less than $2,320,000 of after-tax net income or (ii) earnings before income tax provision and before minority interest of less than $3,200,000, then 3,042,254 shares of common stock in escrow will be distributed to the investors on a pro rata basis for no additional consideration. If either (i) the earnings per share reported in the Annual Report on Form 10-KSB of Equicap for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2008 is less than $0.343 on a fully diluted basis (as equitably adjusted for any stock splits, stock combinations, stock dividends or similar transactions), (ii) the earnings per share before income tax provision and before minority interest of the company for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2008, is less than $0.446 on a fully diluted basis (as equitably adjusted for any stock splits, stock combinations, stock dividends or similar transactions), (iii) the after tax net income reported in the Annual Report on Form 10-KSB of the company for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2008, is less than $10,000,000, or (iv) the earnings before income tax provision and before minority interest reported in the Annual Report on Form 10-KSB of the company for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2008, is less than $13,020,000, then 7,098,592 shares of common stock in escrow will be distributed to the investors on a pro rata basis for no additional consideration. Any shares not distributed to the investors will be released to the persons who placed them in escrow.
 
According to SAB 79, Accounting for Expenses or Liabilities by Principal Stockholder(s), if the performance criteria are not met, these shares will be released to the investors and treated as an expense for the amount of the market value of the shares as of the date of release. Per SFAS No. 123R, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, if the performance criteria are met, the shares will be released back to the former shareholders of Usunco and treated as an expense for the amount of the market value of the shares as of the date of release. Since the performance criteria for the year ended June 30, 2007 were not met, based upon the market value of $1.30 per share as of June 30, 2007, the total expense recognized for the fiscal year of 2007 was $3,954,930. Since the performance criteria for the year ended June 30, 2008 were not met, based upon the market value of $0.20 per share as of June 30, 2008, the total expense recognized for the fiscal year of 2008 was $1,419,719. Such expense is treated as an unusual item since it is deemed to be unusual in nature but may not be infrequent in occurrence. This recognition of expense would not occur if the shares are forfeited or cancelled and are not released to either the investors or the former shareholders of Usunco.

Net Loss

Net loss reached $1,964,725 in year ended June 30, 2008 compared with net loss of $5,279,437 year ended June 30, 2007. The net loss for fiscal year of 2008 was mainly attributed to the increase in general and administrative expenses, comprised of costs related to being a public company including professional services related to auditing, legal and other services, operating expenses in China, and non-cash expenses recognized for stock based compensation related to stock options and warrants granted in the period pursuant to SFAS 123(R); and to the recognition of $1,419,719 unusual loss arising from the make good arrangement for fiscal year 2008, partially offset by the net interest income amounting to $90,083, and net other income of $119,527 mainly resulting from local government’s subsidies and VAT refund to ZhongChai JV and its wholly owned subsidiary, Shengte, to incentize their equipment purchase and technology innovation that comply with government’s industry policies.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2008, Equicap had assets equal to $14,790,817 which primarily were comprised of cash and cash equivalents of $956,973, net receivables and other receivables of $948,980, and advance payments of $5,059,154. The advance payments represented a deposit that the ZhongChai JV placed to secure the exclusive right to acquire 100% interest of a project, and the ZhongChai JV is entitled to refund of the full deposit amount in case the project is not completed or Zhongchai JV decides not to pursue the transaction within the twelve-month period ending October 17, 2008. Equicap’s current liabilities as of June 30, 2008 were $1,382,611, which primarily were comprised of trade accounts payable and accrued expenses, taxes payable and other payable. At June 30, 2008, Equicap had working capital of $7,276,487. Equicap believes that it has sufficient operating capital for its current operations.

-31-

 
Equicap has funded its operations from income generated by its IBC subsidiary and to a much lesser extent by Usunco and its PRC subsidiaries and from the sale of equity securities. The principal equity funding for the company was a private placement in March 2007, in which Equicap sold 8,450,704 shares at an aggregate offering price of $12,000,000. After related expenses, Equicap had net proceeds of approximately $10,000,000. The net proceeds of the private placement are being used by Equicap and its various subsidiaries principally for market expansion, product development, product acquisition and working capital and general corporate purposes.

Equicap used $8,000,000 of the proceeds from the March 2007 offering to fund the capital of ZhongChai JV. These funds are available as working capital of the joint venture. The joint venture partner contributed $2,600,000 of working capital simultaneously with the contribution by Equicap.

During the first quarter of fiscal year 2008, Equicap used approximately $3,700,000 of its cash assets to acquire Shengte as a wholly-owned subsidiary of ZhongChai JV. The cash assets used for this acquisition were those forming a part of the working capital contributed to ZhongChai JV. Shengte is a manufacturer and distributor of gears mainly used in engines and gearboxes, and gearboxes (transmissions) which are primarily used in industrial equipment such as forklift trucks. We expect that future cash flows generated from the operation of gear and gearbox business will be sufficient to cover the Company’s China/Gear Segment’s working capital requirements.

Also during the first quarter of fiscal year 2008, Equicap did not have the registration statement declared effective within the time period specified in the registration rights agreement for the March 2007 offering. As a result Equicap was obligated to pay the liquidated damage amount provided in the agreement to the investors which was an aggregate of $32,000.

As Equicap expands its operations and considers additional acquisitions of private companies, divisions or product lines, it may require additional capital for its business development and operations. Equicap does not have any specific sources of capital at this time, therefore, it would need to find additional funding for its capitalization needs. Such capital may be in the form of either debt or equity or a combination. To the extent that financing is in the form of debt, it is anticipated that the terms will include various restrictive covenants, affirmative covenants and credit enhancements such as guarantees or security interests. The terms of any proposed financing may not be acceptable to Equicap. There is no assurance that funding will be identified or accepted by Equicap or, that if offered, it will be concluded.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The company does not have off-balance sheet arrangements, financings, or other relationships with unconsolidated entities or other persons, also known as “special purpose entities” (SPEs).

Item 8.  
Changes In and Disagreements With Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure 

On April 5, 2007, Equicap dismissed Paritz & Company, P.A., as its independent certified public accountants. The decision was approved by the board of directors of the Equicap.

-32-


During the company’s fiscal year ended December 31, 2006, and any subsequent interim period preceding the termination, there were no disagreements with Paritz & Company, P.A. on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Paritz & Company, P.A. would have caused Paritz & Company, P.A. to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its report on the financial statements for such years or subsequent interim periods.
 
In connection with the year ended December 31, 2006, the Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, issued by Paritz & Company, PA with respect to the company audited financial statements stated the following:

“The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the company will continue as a going concern. The company has suffered recurring net losses and as of December 31, 2006 its current liabilities and total liabilities exceeded its current assets and total assets by $105,445. These factors raise substantial doubt about the company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.”

In connection with the year ended December 31, 2005, the Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, issued by Paritz & Company, PA with respect to the company audited financial statements stated the following:

“The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the company will continue as a going concern. The company has suffered recurring net losses and as of December 31, 2005 its current liabilities and total liabilities exceeded its current assets and total assets by $13,617. These factors raise substantial doubt about the company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.”

Equicap requested that Paritz & Company P.A. furnish it with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not it agrees with the company’s statements in Item 4.01(a) of the Form 8-K Current Report for the change in accountants. A copy of the letter furnished by Paritz & Company, P.A. in response to that request, dated April 5, 2007, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to the Form 8-K reporting the change.

On April 5, 2007, Patrizio & Zhao, LLC was engaged as the new independent certified accountants to Equicap. During the two most recent fiscal years and the interim period preceding the engagement of Patrizio & Zhao, LLC, Equicap has not consulted with Patrizio & Zhao, LLC regarding either: (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the company’s financial statements; or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement or event identified in paragraph (a)(1)(iv) of Item 304 of Regulation S-B.

Item 8A.  
Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (“Certifying Officers”), has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the fiscal period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-KSB. Based upon such evaluation, the Certifying Officers have concluded that, as of the end of such period, June 30, 2008, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is made known to management, including our Certifying Officers, and that such information is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

-33-

 
In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and our management necessarily is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Our internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance to the Company’s management and board of directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Our management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2008. In making this assessment, it used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control—Integrated Framework. Based on our assessment, we believe that, as of June 30, 2008, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting is effective based on those criteria.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance 

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires Equicap’s officers and directors, and persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of Equicap’s equity securities, to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”). Officers, directors and greater than ten percent beneficial owners are required by Commission regulations to furnish the Company with copies of all forms they file pursuant to Section 16(a). Based solely on the Company’s review of the copies of such forms it received and written representations from reporting persons required to file reports under Section 16(a), to Equicap’s knowledge all of the Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to such persons with respect to fiscal 2008 were complied with.

-36-

 
Board Committees

The board of directors considers all major decisions. The board has not established any standing committees thereunder. The board has affirmatively determined that Mr. Haining Liu is an independent director as defined by applicable securities law and corporate governance guidelines.

If Equicap seeks listing of its shares on the NASDAQ Capital Market, then it will take action prior to listing to comply with all corporate governance requirements of NASDAQ, including having audit and executive compensation committees.

The board of directors does not have a nominations committee because there are a limited number of directors, and the board believes that shareholder suggestions would be known to the entire board if and when communicated to the company. As such, the board of directors believes there will be sufficient communication by shareholders with the board about matters and nominees to be brought to its attention.

Currently the board of directors functions as an audit committee and performs some of the same functions as an audit committee including: (1) selection and oversight of our independent accountant; (2) establishing procedures for the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints regarding accounting, internal controls and auditing matters; and (3) engaging outside advisors. The company is not a "listed company" under SEC rules and is therefore not required to have an audit committee comprised of independent directors. The board has determined that its members do not include a person who is an "audit committee financial expert" within the meaning of the rules and regulations of the SEC. The board has determined, however, that each of its members is able to read and understand fundamental financial statements and has substantial business experience that results in that member's financial sophistication. Accordingly, the board believes that each of its members have the sufficient knowledge and experience necessary to fulfill the duties and obligations that an audit committee would have.

Equicap adopted a formal code of ethics statement that is designed to deter wrong doing and to promote ethical conduct and full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable reports that Equicap files or submits to the SEC and others. A copy of the form of Equicap’s code of ethics is filed as an exhibit to a Report on Form 8-K dated March 9, 2007. Requests for copies of Equicap’s code of ethics should be sent in writing to 10510 Hillsboro Road, Santa Ana, CA 92705, U.S.A., Attention: Secretary.

Limitation of Director Liability; Indemnification

Under Nevada law and the Equicap bylaws, the company is required to indemnify its officers, directors, employees and agents in certain situations. In some instances, a court must approve indemnification. As permitted by Nevada statutes, the articles of incorporation eliminate in certain circumstances the monetary liability of its directors for a breach of their fiduciary duties. These provisions do not eliminate a director’s liability for:

 
·
a willful failure to deal fairly with us or our shareholders in connection with a matter in which the director has a material conflict of interest,

 
·
a violation of criminal law unless the director had reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was lawful or no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful,

 
·
a transaction from which the director derived an improper personal profit, and

 
·
willful misconduct.

As to indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 for directors, officers or persons controlling the company, we have been informed that, in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy and therefore unenforceable.

Employment Agreements 

Currently, all employees of Equicap are employed on “at will” employment agreements except Mr. David Ming He, the Chief Financial Officer, who has signed an employment agreement with the company. The company intends to establish formal employment contracts for certain other key employees in the future.

-39-

 
The employment agreement with Mr. He provides for a term of employment ending January 2012, unless terminated in accordance with the agreement. Mr. He will devote substantially all of his employment time and attention to the affairs of the company. Mr. He will report to the Chief Executive Officer. He will be entitled to a base salary of $48,000 which will be reviewed annually by the Chief Executive Officer or the compensation committee if there is one to determine if increases should be made in light of the size and performance of the company. There is provided a 10% increase on January 15, 2009. Mr. He is entitled to a bonus in each of the fiscal years during the term of the agreement, which may be in the form of cash, stock options or stock. Mr. He will also be eligible to participate in the stock option and similar plans of the company. He will be granted an option for 183,275 shares of common stock, of which one third will vest 12 months after the commencement of employment and the balance will vest pro rata each month thereafter. Mr. He will be provided insurance under the company health plans or paid $1,000 in respect of premiums if not so covered. He will also be entitled to $1,000 per month as a non-accountable expense account, in addition to reimbursement for all other actual travel and other business related expenses. The employment agreement provides for non-competition and non-solicitation restrictions, confidentiality obligations and restrictions on engaging in other employment. In the event of termination without cause or for good reason by the executive or upon a change of control, Mr. He will be paid the consideration due for the balance of the employment period of the contract, bonuses for the prior and current year of termination and insurance coverage.

2006 Stock Option Plan

Usunco adopted its 2006 Stock Option Plan on May 18, 2006 by the board of directors and approved by the shareholders on May 18, 2006. The plan provides for the issuance of up to 1,970,698 shares of common stock under incentive or non-statutory stock options. The plan is administered by the board of directors. The board of directors, at the time of a grant, will determine the type of option, the exercise price, vesting schedule, and expiration date, as well as any other terms of the grant. The minimum exercise price of incentive stock option cannot be less than 75% (or 100% if granted to an employee who, at the time of grant of such option, owns stock representing more than ten percent (10%) of the voting power of all classes of stock of the company or any parent or subsidiary) of the fair market value on the date of the grant, and the minimum exercise price of non-statutory stock option cannot be less than 100% of the fair market value on the date of the grant. Incentive stock options may be granted only to employees, otherwise options may be granted to officers, directors, employees and consultants, or collectively “Service Providers”. No stock options were awarded during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008. Currently, there are 366,550 shares which Usunco has committed to issue as incentive stock option grants under the plan at an average weighted exercise of $1.065 per share. The company plans to take steps to provide any options that were committed to be issued under this plan are modified to provide that they will be issued under a plan under which the shares to be issued will be those of Equicap rather than Usunco.

Executive Compensation Determination

It is the intention of Equicap to determine executive compensation by a decision of the majority of the independent directors, at a meeting at which the chief executive officer will not be present. In the future, the board may establish a compensation committee.

From time to time key employees may receive a cash bonus as rewards for their job performance that meet or exceed the operation goals and results set up by the board of directors or high-level management. The company will also consider other employee benefits for which it will assume the cost, such as health and dental insurance benefits. The company also will reimburse employees for their travel expenses.

Item 12.  
Certain Relationships and Related Transactions

During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008, other than as set forth in this section, the Company did not enter into any related party transactions with any director, officer, nominee for director, beneficial owner of 5% or more of the equity securities of the Company, or their family members. Notwithstanding the foregoing, officers and certain of the 5% shareholders of the Common Stock have had discussions about the possible redemption of the stockholders’ common stock.

During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008, the Company and Xinchai Holding Group Co., Ltd. (“Xinchai Holding”), the original joint venture partner of the ZhongChai JV, determined to place the distribution agreement between the ZhongChai JV and Xinchai Holding in suspension so that the joint venture could focus its resources on development of the gear and gearbox products of Xinchang Keyi and their marketing. The joint venture partners determined to put the agreement in suspension because the economics of distributing the Xinchai Holding products under the distribution agreement had been adversely affected by several factors, notably the dramatic increase in the product costs because of the cost of steel which cut into margins and the disinclination of the equipment integrators who use those products to buy engines from a middleman with the added costs, and the overall competition in the industry segment. The use of a suspension arrangement was so the parties could ultimately work to continue to pursue the joint venture in some other profitable endeavor. As a result, Zhongchai JV agreed to work with Xinchai Holding to produce gearboxes that will be sold stand-alone to Xinchai’s customers or sold with the diesel engines made by Xinchai’s subsidiary as a diesel power-train. It was believed that this rearrangement would change Zhongchai JV’s market position from a middleman to an original manufacturer, which is more acceptable in the OEM marketplace.

-42-

 
In October 2007, Zhongchai JV and Xinchai Holding entered into a letter of intent (“LOI”) regarding the “Hangchai Project,” a project to establish Hangzhou Xinchai Company Limited (“Hangzhou Xinchai”) in Hangzhou, for the purpose of manufacturing diesel engines, engine components and related products. At the time of the LOI execution, Xinchai Holding had obtained approvals from the relevant government authorities for the Hangchai Project, and had initiated the processes of establishing the company and bidding for land. The LOI, among other things, also provided for ZhongChai JV to place a deposit of up to RMB 35 million with Xinchai Holding. The deposit was only to satisfy the payments or registered capital requirements related to the Hangchai Project. The LOI is terminable if within 12 months of its execution the Hangchai Project is not completed or ZhongChai JV decides not to pursue the transaction. On termination, Xinchai Holding is obliged to refund to Zhongchai JV the full amount of the deposit. Due to changes in the macro economic conditions and business operations for the proposed project, ZhongChai JV has decided not to pursue the project, and Xinchai Holding has verbally agreed with that decision. Both parties are in the process of preparing a definitive termination agreement to end the transaction and refund the deposit.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
 
To the Board of Directors
Equicap, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Equicap, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of June 30, 2008 and 2007, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows, for the years ended June 30, 2008 and 2007. 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 audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide 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 Equicap, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of June 30, 2008 and 2007, and the consolidated results of its operations and its consolidated cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JUNE 30, 2008 AND 2007

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Equicap, Inc. (“the Company”), a Nevada corporation, is a manufacturer and distributor of gears and gearboxes, and a distributor of automotive parts and components, such as, starters and alternators, which are marketed and sold to customers primarily located in China and North America.

On July 6, 2007, the Board of Directors of Zhejiang Zhongchai Machinery Co., Ltd. (“Zhongchai”), the China based and 75% owned subsidiary of Equicap, Inc., approved and finalized a Share Purchase Agreement (“Share Purchase Agreement”) with Xinchang Keyi Machinery Co., Ltd., a corporation incorporated in the People’s Republic of China (“Keyi”). Pursuant to the Share Purchase Agreement, Zhongchai purchased all the outstanding equity of Zhejiang Shengte Transmission Co., Ltd. (“Shengte”) from Keyi, the sole owner of Shengte for approximately $3.7 million.

On March 7, 2007, the Company and Usunco Automotive, Ltd. (“Usunco”) entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (“Exchange Agreement”) which was consummated on March 9, 2007. Under the terms of the Exchange Agreement, the Company acquired all of the outstanding equity securities of Usunco in exchange for 18,323,944 shares of common stock of Equicap, Inc.

For accounting purposes, because the Company had been a public shell company prior to the share exchange, the share exchange was treated as a recapitalization of the Company. As such, the historical financial information prior to the share exchange is that of Usunco and its subsidiaries. Historical share amounts have been restated to reflect the effect of the share exchange.

On June 18, 2006, Usunco acquired 100% of IBC Automotive Products Inc (“IBC”), a California Corporation as of May 14, 2004 (date of inception), through a Share Exchange Agreement of 28% of Usunco’s shares. IBC is considered a “predecessor” business to Usunco as its operations constituted the business activities of Usunco formed to consummate the acquisition of IBC. The consolidated financial statements reflect all predecessor statements of income and cash flow activities from the inception of IBC in May 2004.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the parent company and the subsidiaries. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 95, "Statement of Cash Flows," the Company considers all highly liquid instruments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash and cash equivalents.

ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AND BAD DEBT RESERVES

Trade accounts receivable are stated at the amount management expects to collect from balances outstanding at the end of the period. Based on its assessment of the credit history with customers having outstanding balances and current relationships with them, management makes conclusions whether any realization of losses on balances outstanding at the end of the period will be deemed uncollectible based on the age of the receivables. For the North America/Auto Parts segment, the Company reserves 5% of accounts receivable balances that have been outstanding for greater than 90 days. For the China/Gear segment, the Company reserves 0.5% of accounts receivable balances that have been outstanding below three months, 5% of accounts receivable balances that have been outstanding between three months and six months, 20% of receivable balances that have been outstanding within one year, 50% of receivable balances that have been outstanding for between one year and two years, and 100% of receivable balances that have been outstanding more than two years.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JUNE 30, 2008 AND 2007

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

INVENTORY

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is calculated on the weighted-average basis and includes all costs to acquire and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. The company evaluates the net realizable value of its inventories on a regular basis and record a provision for loss to reduce the computed weighted-average cost if it exceeds the net realizable value.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property and equipment is recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Repairs and maintenance expenditures, which do not extend the useful lives of the related assets, are expensed as incurred.

Under SFAS No. 144 "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets", the Company's long-lived assets are evaluated for impairment when events or changes in business circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable. The Company also assesses these assets for impairment based on their estimated future cash flows. The Company has not incurred any losses in connection with the adoption of this statement.

GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Goodwill represents costs in excess of fair values assigned to the underlying net assets of acquired businesses. Goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives are not amortized. All other intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives. Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are subject to annual impairment testing using the guidance and criteria described in Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”. This testing compares carrying values to fair values and, when appropriate, the carrying value of these assets is reduced to fair value. As of June 30, 2008, the Company concluded that there were no impairments on goodwill or indefinite-lived intangibles.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

Revenue consists of sales of automotive parts, gears and gearboxes. In accordance with the provisions of Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 103, revenue is recognized when merchandise is shipped, title and risk of loss pass to the customer and collectibility is reasonably assured. Revenue is recorded as the sales price of goods and services, net of rebates and discounts and is reported on a gross basis. The gross basis is used mainly due to the fact that the Company acts as principal in each transaction and is responsible for fulfillment and acceptability of the products purchased, the Company takes title to its products before the products are ordered by its customers, the Company has risk of inventory loss as title of the products is transferred to the Company, the Company is responsible for collection of sales and delivery of products, and the Company does not act as an agent or broker and is not compensated on a commission or fee basis.

SALES RETURNS AND WARRANTIES

Generally the company does not accept the return of products once sold to customers. The company generally provides a one-year limited warranty covering manufacturing defects and/or product functional failures. After evaluation and confirmation of customer complaints, the company either replaces the defective products or accepts returns by crediting the customer's account. Such replacements or returns as well as handling costs therefrom are passed through to the suppliers.

ADVERTISING COSTS

The Company expenses the cost of advertising as incurred. Advertising costs for the year ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 were insignificant.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JUNE 30, 2008 AND 2007

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS)

The Company adopted SFAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income, which establishes rules for the reporting of comprehensive income and its components. In addition to net loss, comprehensive income (loss) includes all changes in equity during a period, except those resulting from investments by and distributions to owners. Items of comprehensive income include foreign currency translation adjustment.

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION

Substantially all of the Company's operations are conducted in China and the financial statements are translated from Chinese RMB, the functional currency, into U.S. Dollars in accordance with SFAS No. 52, "Foreign Currency Translation." Accordingly, all foreign currency assets and liabilities are translated at the period-end exchange rate and all revenues and expenses are translated at the average exchange rate for the period. The effects of translating the financial statements of foreign subsidiaries into U.S. Dollars are reported as a cumulative translation adjustment, a separate component of comprehensive income in stockholder's equity.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities”. This standard permits entities to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The purpose is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility. SFAS No. 159 provides companies with an option to report selected financial assets and liabilities at fair value. The objective of SFAS No.159 is to reduce both complexity in accounting for financial instruments and the volatility in earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently. SFAS No. 159 also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between companies and choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. SFAS No. 159 is effective for the Company on January 1, 2008. It is expected that the adoption of SFAS No. 159 will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB Statement No. 51.” SFAS No. 160 amends Accounting Research Bulletin (ARB) No. 51, “Consolidated Financial Statements,” to establish accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. SFAS No. 160 clarifies that a noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary, which is sometimes referred to as a minority interest, is an ownership interest in the consolidated entity that should be reported as a component of equity in the consolidated financial statements. Among other requirements, SFAS No. 160 requires consolidated net income to be reported at amounts that include the amounts attributable to both the parent and the noncontrolling interest. It also requires disclosure, on the face of the consolidated income statement, of the amounts of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and the noncontrolling interest. SFAS No. 160 is effective for the Company on January 1, 2009, and is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), “Business Combinations (Revised))”, (SFAS No. 141(R)), to replace SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations. SFAS No. 141(R) requires the use of the acquisition method of accounting, defines the acquirer, establishes the acquisition date and broadens the scope to all transactions and other events in which one entity obtains control over one or more other businesses. This statement is effective for business combinations or transactions entered into for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The Company is evaluating the impact of SFAS No. 141 (R).

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company considers the carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheet for current assets and current liabilities qualifying as financial instruments and approximating fair value.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JUNE 30, 2008 AND 2007

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

INCOME TAXES

Deferred income taxes are computed using the asset and liability method, such that deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between financial reporting amounts and the tax basis of existing assets and liabilities based on currently enacted tax laws and tax rates in effect in the United States of America for the periods in which the differences are expected to reverse. Income tax expense is the tax payable for the period plus the change during the period in deferred income taxes. A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. No differences were noted between the book and tax bases of the Company’s assets and liabilities, respectively. Therefore, there are no deferred tax assets or liabilities for the year ended June 30, 2008. For the China/Gear segment, the Zhongchai JV is located in the PRC, and is therefore subject to central government and provincial and local income taxes within the PRC at the applicable tax rate on the taxable income as reported in the PRC statutory financial statements in accordance with relevant income tax laws. The standard corporate income tax rate is 25% from January 1, 2008, when China’s new tax law became effective, decreased from previously 33%.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses, and related disclosures at the date of the financial statements and during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

The Company presents earnings (loss) per share on a basic and diluted basis. Basic earnings (loss) per share have been computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of shares outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per share has been computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of shares outstanding including the dilutive effect of equity securities. All share and per share data have been adjusted to reflect the recapitalization of the Company after the share exchange agreement with Usunco. The weighted average number of shares calculated for Diluted EPS excludes the potential common stock that would be exercised under the options granted to employees and warrants granted to agents because the inclusion of the potential shares from these options and warrants would cause an antidilutive effect by reducing the net loss per share. (See Note 11).

NOTE 8 – DEFERRED COMPENSATION

As described in Note 10 (“Stock-based compensation), the Company granted options to employees and warrants to the private placement agent. Following SFAS No. 123R, the Company recognizes expenses on the fair value of the options and warrants. Deferred compensation represents stock-based compensation that will be expensed in future periods based on the vesting time of such options and warrants.

NOTE 9 – STOCK AUTHORIZATION AND ISSUANCE

On March 9, 2007, the Company completed the sale of an aggregate of 8,450,704 shares of its common stock to a limited number of institutional investors in a private placement transaction pursuant to offering exemptions under the Securities Act of 1933. The shares, which represent approximately 30% of the outstanding common stock on an after-issued basis, were sold at a price of $1.42 per share, for net proceeds of approximately $10 million. The net proceeds from this transaction will be used for general working capital purposes.

The Company has a registration payment arrangement with regard to the common stock issued in the private offering. The Company was required to file a registration statement within 45 days of closing and cause the registration statement to become effective on or prior to 150 days after the closing date. The registration statement was filed within the 45 day limit thus fulfilling part of this obligation. In addition, the Company is required to use reasonable commercial efforts to maintain the registration statement’s effectiveness and file additional registration statements in the future, to continue to provide to the stockholders the opportunity to sell the shares of restricted stock that they hold.

In the event the Company does not satisfy the registration obligations of the registration rights agreement, (“Registration Default”), the Company shall pay the investors an amount in cash equal to 1% of the aggregate investment amount for each 30-day period of a Registration Default. The maximum penalty that the Company may incur under this registration payment arrangement is 10% of the aggregate investment amount, or $1,200,000. Any payments made are to be prorated for any portion of a 30-day period of a Registration Default.

Although the Company has the obligation to register shares of common stock for other persons under the above described registration rights agreement, the Company is not obligated to pay liquidated damages in the event that their shares are not registered or the registration statement is not available for their sale.

NOTE 10 – SEGMENT REPORTING

The Company’s reporting segments have been determined based on the geographic location of their operations and meanwhile the nature of the products offered to customers. The North America/Auto Parts Segment, represented by the 100% owned subsidiary of IBC Automotive Products, Inc. headquartered in California, USA, focuses on sourcing automotive parts and products from the China and distributing them in North America and other regions.

JUNE 30, 2008 AND 2007

NOTE 11 – STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

As of June 30, 2008, there are outstanding 366,550 options to employees (“Employee Options”) and 422,535 warrants (“Agent Warrants”) to the private placement agent. Both the Employee Options and Agent Warrants vest over three years and have a life of five years. For the year ended June 30, 2008, the Company recorded approximately $45,184 of stock-based compensation based on the fair value method of SFAS. N0. 123R using the following assumptions: Volatility of 34.94%, risk free interest rate of 4.63%, dividend yield of 0%, and expected life of 5 years. No estimate of forfeitures was made as the Company has a short history of granting options.

The fair value of the options and warrants was determined based on the number of shares granted and the quoted price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. The fair value of stock-based compensation was determined using the Black-Scholes model.

NOTE 12 – COMITTMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

In connection with the Offering, for the benefit of the investors, eight of the former shareholders of Usunco, some of whom are the officers and directors of Equicap, have agreed to place into escrow an aggregate of 10,140,846 shares of common stock issued in the Share Exchange. The placing of shares by the former shareholders of Usunco into escrow was tantamount to a reverse stock split followed by the grant of a restricted stock award. If the consolidated financial statements of Equicap for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2007, prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied, reflect either (i) less than $2,320,000 of after-tax net income or (ii) earnings before income tax provision and before minority interest of less than $3,200,000, then 3,042,254 shares of common stock in escrow will be distributed to the investors on a pro rata basis for no additional consideration. The Company did not satisfy the condition and these shares have been distributed. According to the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company filed a registration statement for such 3,042,254 shares distributed to the investors, and the registration statement was declared effective on December 21, 2007.

If either (i) the earnings per share reported in the Annual Report on Form 10-KSB of Equicap for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2008 is less than $0.343 on a fully diluted basis (as equitably adjusted for any stock splits, stock combinations, stock dividends or similar transactions), (ii) the earnings per share before income tax provision and before minority interest in the Annual Report on Form 10-KSB of the company for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2008, is less than $0.446 on a fully diluted basis (as equitably adjusted for any stock splits, stock combinations, stock dividends or similar transactions), (iii) the after tax net income reported in the Annual Report on Form 10-KSB of the company for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2008, is less than $10,000,000, or (iv) the earnings before income tax provision and before minority interest reported in the Annual Report on Form 10-KSB of the company for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2008, is less than $13,020,000, then 7,098,592 shares of common stock in escrow will be distributed to the investors on a pro rata basis for no additional consideration. Any shares not distributed to the investors will be released to the persons who placed them in escrow. Any make good shares issued to the investors will be subject to the registration rights under the Registration Rights Agreement.

According to SAB 79, Accounting for Expenses or Liabilities by Principal Stockholder(s), if the performance criteria are not met these shares will be released to the investors and treated as an expense for the amount of the market value of the shares as of the date of release. Per SFAS No. 123R, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, if the performance criteria are met, the shares will be released back to the former shareholders of Usunco and treated as an expense for the amount of the market value of the shares as of the date of release. Based upon the market price of $1.00 per share of common stock as of June 30, 2007, the total expense recognized for the fiscal year of 2007 was $3,954,930. Based upon the market price of $0.20 per share of common stock as of June 30, 2008, the total expense recognized for the fiscal year of 2008 is $1,419,719. Such expense is treated as an unusual item since it is deemed to be unusual in nature but may not be infrequent in occurrence. This recognition of expense will not occur if the shares are forfeited or cancelled and are not released to either the investors or the former shareholders of Usunco.
