EASTBRIDGE INVESTMENT GROUP CORPORATION
FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2010 AND 2009
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 – DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
EastBridge Investment Group Corporation (formally ATC Technology Corporation) was incorporated in the State of Arizona on June 25, 2001. The Company's principal activity through June 30, 2005 was to manufacture mobile entertainment products that provided a means to play video game consoles made by Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo in a customer's car, RV, SUV, van or boat with attachable viewing monitors.
In 2005, EastBridge decided to exit the mobile video game market and dedicate its activities to providing consulting services in Asia. EastBridge is one of a small group of United States companies solely concentrated in marketing consulting services to closely held small to mid-size Asian companies that require these services for expansion. EastBridge had nine clients as of the date of this filing, that it is assisting in becoming public companies, reporting pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, in the United States and obtaining listings for their stock on a U.S. stock exchange or over-the-counter market. All clients are located in Asia-Pacifica.
EastBridge has formed three subsidiaries which have been consolidated with EastBridge from the date of formation as further described below. These subsidiaries are inactive.
NOTE 2 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2009, which has been derived from audited consolidated financial statements, and the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2010 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and June 30, 2009, have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for audited financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the interim information includes all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2010. The footnote disclosures related to the interim financial information included herein are also unaudited. Such financial information should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto as of December 31, 2009 and for the year then ended included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates and assumptions have been used by management throughout the preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements including in conjunction with establishing allowances for customer refunds, non-paying customers, dilution and fees, analyzing the recoverability of the carrying amount of intangible assets, estimating forfeitures of stock-based compensation and evaluating the recoverability of deferred tax assets. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
NOTE 3 – GOING CONCERN
As indicated in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has incurred cumulative net operating losses of $6,797,675 since inception. We place no assurance on the on going operations of our subsidiaries, which were all inactive as of June 30, 2010. So far, most of the working capital has been provided by the Company's management team members. They have done so since EastBridge's inception and have indicated their continued support for EastBridge; however, there is no assurance that additional funds will be advanced. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recovery of the recorded assets or the classification of the liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
Management plans to successfully achieve milestones in the near future with respect to the Company's client engagements which will provide the Company with some liquidity from payments due on achievement of milestones; however, there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in achieving any milestones under its client agreements.
The Company's ability to meet its obligations and continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain additional financing, achievement of profitable operations and/or ability to achieve client listing obligations. Although the Company plans to pursue additional financing, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to secure financing when needed or to obtain such financing on terms satisfactory to the Company, if at all.
NOTE 4 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Company prepares its financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Significant accounting policies are as follows:
Principles of Consolidation
We prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements.
These estimates and assumptions also affect the reported amounts of revenues, costs and expenses during the reporting period. Management evaluates these estimates and assumptions on a regular basis. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Revenue Recognition
The Company utilizes the guidance set forth in the Securities and Exchange Commission's Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 104, regarding the recognition, presentation and disclosure of revenue in its financial statements. The Company engages in listing contracts with its clients which provide for the payment of fees, either in cash or equity, upon the achievement of certain milestones including the successful completion of a financial statement audit, the successful listing on a national stock exchange or over-the-counter market and the maintenance of ongoing 1934 Act reporting requirements with the Securities and Exchange Commission. In some instances, payment may be made in advance of performance; however, such payment is often refundable in the event that milestones are not reached. The Company recognizes revenue on a systematic basis as milestones are reached in accordance with FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 605 “Revenue Recognition” Update No. 2009-13. Such guidance stipulates that revenue be recognized for individual elements in a multiple deliverable arrangement using the relative selling price method. The Company relies on internal estimates of the relative selling price of each element as objective third-party evidence is unattainable.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and cash in the bank. At times, cash deposits may exceed government-insured limits.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for using the asset and liability method as prescribed by ASC 740 “Income Taxes”. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which these temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance would be provided for those deferred tax assets for which if it is more likely than not that the related benefit will not be realized.
A full valuation allowance has been established against all net deferred tax assets as of June 30, 2010 based on estimates of recoverability. While the Company has optimistic plans for its business strategy, we determined that such a valuation allowance was necessary given the current and expected near term losses and the uncertainty with respect to our ability to generate sufficient profits from our business model.
Share-Based Compensation
The Company periodically uses stock-based awards, consisting of shares of common stock, to compensate certain officers and consultants. Shares are expensed on a straight line basis over the requisite service period based on the grant date fair value, net of estimated forfeitures, if any. Typically, stock awards are fully vested at the date of grant, so forfeitures are not applicable.
Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Share
Net loss per share was computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The weighted average number of shares was calculated by taking the number of shares outstanding and weighting them by the amount of time that they were outstanding. Diluted net loss per share for the Company is the same as basic net loss per share, as the inclusion of common stock equivalents would be anti-dilutive.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties other than in a forced sale or liquidation.
The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, income tax payable and related party payable approximate fair value due to their short maturities.
Reclassification
Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentations.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Recent accounting pronouncements that the Company has adopted or that it will be required to adopt in the future are summarized below.
In October 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Accounting Standards Update 2009-13, Revenue Recognition (Topic 605)—Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements. FASB Accounting Standards Update 2009-13 addresses the accounting for multiple-deliverable arrangements to enable vendors to account for products or services (deliverables) separately rather than as a combined unit. Specifically, this guidance amends the criteria in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Subtopic 605-25, Revenue Recognition-Multiple-Element Arrangements, for separating consideration in multiple-deliverable arrangements. This guidance establishes a selling price hierarchy for determining the selling price of a deliverable, which is based on: (a) vendor-specific objective evidence; (b) third-party evidence; or (c) estimates. This guidance also eliminates the residual method of allocation and requires that arrangement consideration be allocated at the inception of the arrangement to all deliverables using the relative selling price method. In addition, this guidance significantly expands required disclosures related to a vendor’s multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements. FASB Accounting Standards Update 2009-13 is effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is in the process of developing relative selling price estimates of its deliverables for use in future revenue recognition of listing agreements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this pronouncement.
In August 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Accounting Standards Update 2009-05, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820)—Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value includes amendments to Subtopic 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures—Overall, for the fair value measurement of liabilities and provides clarification that in circumstances in which a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability is not available, a reporting entity is required to measure fair value using one or more of the techniques provided for in this update. The adoption of Accounting Standards Update 2009-05 did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
During June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FAS No. 168, FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162 (“SFAS 168”) and is incorporated in ASC Topic 105, which establishes the FASB Accounting Standards Codification as the single official source of authoritative US GAAP (other than guidance issued by the SEC), superseding existing FASB, American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, Emerging Issues Task Force, and related literature. SFAS 168 became effective as of the beginning of the first annual reporting period that begins after September 15, 2009 and for interim periods within that period. The adoption of SFAS 168 did not have an impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

Overview
EastBridge Investment Group Corporation (formally ATC Technology Corporation) was incorporated in the State of Arizona on June 25, 2001. The Company's principal activity through June 30, 2005 was to manufacture mobile entertainment products that provided a means to play video game consoles made by Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo in a customer's car, RV, SUV, van or boat with attachable viewing monitors.
In 2005, EastBridge decided to exit the mobile video game market and dedicate its activities to providing investment related services in Asia, with a strong focus on the high GDP growth countries, such as China and India. EastBridge is initially concentrating its efforts in China (Hong Kong, mainland China, Macao and Taiwan). We provide consulting services to provide viable corporate infrastructure necessary for small to medium-size companies to obtain capital to grow their business. EastBridge assists its clients in structuring joint ventures, wholly owned foreign enterprises, or guaranteed return ventures, and assists in locating investment banking, financial advisory and other financial services as allowed by the local government. EastBridge locates consultants which assist with marketing, sales and strategic planning services for its clients to prepare them to enter the United States market.
EastBridge is one of a small group of United States companies solely concentrated in marketing business consulting services to closely held, small to mid-size Asian companies that require these services for expansion. In business sectors where EastBridge sees a unique opportunity for growth, EastBridge may form its own foreign subsidiaries with local partners to capture the opportunity.
EastBridge is currently providing consulting services to nine clients to assist them with the auditing and legal processes to become public companies in the United States and become listed on a U.S. stock exchange. To learn more about eight of our clients, review the Company’s Form 10-K (filed with the SEC on April 15, 2010) and to learn more about our newest ninth client, review the Form 8-K filed with the SEC on July 14, 2010.
EastBridge has formed three subsidiaries which have been consolidated with EastBridge from the date of formation. These subsidiaries are inactive.

While we have optimistic plans for our business strategy, we determined that a valuation allowance was necessary given the current and expected near term losses and the uncertainty with respect to our ability to generate sufficient profits from our business model. Therefore, we established a valuation allowance for all deferred tax assets.

Changes in net loss are primarily attributable to changes in operating income, other income (expense) and discontinued operations, each of which is described above.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Net cash used in operating activities was $596,972 and $28,815 for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The increase is mainly attributable to the increase in our net loss and offset by the increase in stock issued for services.
Our primary source of cash inflows has historically been from listing agreement customers. In late 2009 we received an advance payment for shares of a listed company that is expected to be completed in 2010. As of June 30, 2010 and 2009, no single customer accounted for greater than 10% of accounts receivable as part of the agreements require deposits in advance rather than billing after the fact.
Cash provided by financing activities was $460,960 and $45,500 for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The increase is due to payment of debt with common stock, offset by cash payments on debt and related parties.
We had working capital of $(1,170,534) as of June 30, 2010 compared to $(901,396) as of December 31, 2009. Our cash position decreased to $26,597 at June 30, 2010 compared to $162,609 at December 31, 2009, as we had a decrease in cash flows from operations, offset by cash provided by investing activities.
Our monthly cash requirement amount is approximately $15,000, and as of June 30, 2010, cash on hand would fund operations for approximately two months. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, we have increased deferred revenue by approximately $228,000 as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, as a result of cash deposits on listing agreements.
In the past and current we have received cash through loans extended by our management to the Company and through sales of shares of common stock to individual investors. As we are a consulting company with no proprietary technology it is doubtful we will obtain capital from institutional or other sources and will need to rely on our officers for cash infusions. As much of our revenue will come through sales of equity in our clients it may be several months until we obtain positive cash flows as this will occur only if and when our clients have registration statements cleared by the SEC which include client shares of common stock owned by the Company and these clients become listed on U.S. stock exchanges or over-the-counter markets.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
|
As a smaller reporting company, the Company is not required to provide Part I, Item 3 disclosure.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report were effective such that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure. A controls system cannot provide absolute assurance, however, that the objectives of the controls system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.
Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives. Furthermore, smaller reporting companies face additional limitations. Smaller reporting companies employ fewer individuals and find it difficult to properly segregate duties. Often, one or two individuals control every aspect of the Company's operation and are in a position to override any system of internal control. Additionally, smaller reporting companies tend to utilize general accounting software packages that lack a rigorous set of software controls.
b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.
During the quarter ended June 30, 2010, there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
LACK OF INDEPENDENT BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND AUDIT COMMITTEE
Management is aware that an audit committee composed of the requisite number of independent members along with a qualified financial expert has not yet been established. Considering the costs associated with procuring and providing the infrastructure to support an independent audit committee and the limited number of transactions, Management has concluded that the risks associated with the lack of an independent audit committee are not justified. Management will periodically reevaluate this situation.
LACK OF SEGREGATION OF DUTIES
Management is aware that there is a lack of segregation of duties at the Company due to the small number of employees dealing with general administrative and financial matters. However, at this time management has decided that considering the abilities of the employees now involved and the control procedures in place, the risks associated with such lack of segregation are low and the potential benefits of adding employees to clearly segregate duties do not justify the substantial expenses associated with such increases. Management will periodically reevaluate this situation.
PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Neither our company nor any of its officers or directors is a party to any material legal proceeding or litigation and such persons know of no material legal proceeding or litigation contemplated or threatened. There are no judgments against the Company or its officers or directors.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
During the six months ended June 30, 2010, Company issued 1,800,000 restricted shares of common stock to three consultants for services rendered. Of those shares, 100,000 were restricted shares issued at $.08 per share (the trading value of the stock on the date of issuance), 600,000 were restricted shares issued at $.11 per share (the trading value of the stock on the date of issuance) and 1,100,000 restricted shares were issued at $.17 per share (the trading value of the stock on the date of issuance) for a cumulative value of $261,000. On March 11, 2010, the Company issued 3,100,000 restricted shares of common stock in exchange for the cancellation of debt in the principal amount of $50,040, owed to two individuals. These shares were issued at $.17 per share which was the trading value of the stock on the date of issuance. The Company expensed $476,961 in addition to the debt. We have issued the above securities not registered under the Securities Act by reason of the exemption afforded under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, within the last quarter. No underwriting discounts or commissions were paid with respect to any of the transactions.
ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES
