Overview

We are a company with limited liability incorporated in 2007 under the laws of the Cayman Islands. Headquartered in Beijing, we provide products and services to oil and gas companies and their affiliates through Nanjing Recon Technology Co. Ltd (“Nanjing Recon”) and Beijing BHD Petroleum Technology Co, Ltd (“BHD”), hereafter referred to as our domestic companies (the “Domestic Companies”), which are established as variable interest entities (“VIEs”) under the laws of the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”). As the Company contractually controls the Domestic Companies, we serve as the center of strategic management, financial control and human resources allocation.

Through Nanjing Recon and BHD, our business is mainly focused on the upstream sectors of the oil and gas industry. We derive our revenues from the sales and provision of (1) hardware products, (2) software products and (3) services. Our products and services involve most of the key procedures of the extraction and production of oil and gas, and include automation systems, equipment, tools and on-site technical services.

Our Domestic Companies provide the oil and gas industry with equipment, production technologies, automation and services.

Recent Developments

On September 22, 2015, the Company entered into an amendment to the Company’s letter agreement (the “Agreement”) with Maxim Group LLC, dated January 28, 2015, pursuant to which Maxim would serve as the Company’s exclusive agent in connection with a proposed at-the-market offering program by the Company of up to $10,000,000. The amendment extends the term of the Agreement for an additional six months, or until August 15, 2016, when the Company’s Form S-3 will expire. As of May 16, 2016, no shares have been issued under the amended Agreement.

On December 1, 2015, the Company entered into a share purchase agreement to acquire a 100% interest in Qinghai Huayou Downhole Technologies Co., Ltd. ( “QHHY”), a PRC corporation and oilfield service provider located in Qinghai province. This transaction is subject to shareholder approval and on May 2, 2016, the Company amended its proxy statement on Schedule 14A (the “Proxy Statement”) to disclose all necessary information related to obtaining shareholder approval of the transaction. The Company will hold a shareholder meeting to seek approval of the Company’s acquisition of QHHY after the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) completes its review of the Proxy Statement.

Products and Services

We currently provide products and services to oil and gas field companies focused on the development and production of oil and natural gas. Our products and services described below correlate to the numbered stages of the oilfield production system graphical description shown below.

Our products and services include:

Equipment for Oil and Gas Production and Transportation

High-Efficiency Heating Furnaces (as shown above) . Crude petroleum contains certain impurities that must be removed before it can be sold, including water and natural gas. To remove the impurities and to prevent solidification and blockage in transport pipes, companies employ heating furnaces. BHD researched, developed and implemented a new oilfield furnace that is advanced, highly automated, reliable, easy to operate, safe and highly heat-efficient (90% efficiency).

Burner (as shown above) . We serve as an agent for the Unigas Burner, which is designed and manufactured by UNIGAS, a European burning equipment production company. The burner we provide has the following characteristics: high degree of automation, energy conservation, high turn-down ratio, high security and environmental safety.

Oil and Gas Production Improvement Techniques

Packers of Fracturing. This utility model is used in concert with the security joint, hydraulic anchor, and slide brushing of sand spray in the well. It is used for easy seat sealing and sand uptake prevention. The utility model reduces desilting volume and prevents sand-up, which makes the deblocking processes easier to realize. The back flushing is sand-stick proof.

Production Packer. At varying withdrawal points, the production packer separates different oil layers and protects the oil pipe from sand and permeation, promoting the recovery ratio.

Sand Prevention in Oil and Water Wells. This technique processes additives that are resistant to elevated temperatures into “resin sand” which is transported to the bottom of the well via carrying fluid. The resin sand goes through the borehole, piling up and compacting at the borehole and oil vacancy layer. An artificial borehole wall is then formed, functioning as a means of sand prevention. This sand prevention technique has been adapted to more than 100 wells, including heavy oil wells, light oil wells, water wells and gas wells, with a 100% success rate and a 98% effective rate.

Water Locating and Plugging Technique. High water cut affects the normal production of oilfields. Previously, there was no sophisticated method for water locating and tubular column plugging in China. The mechanical water locating and tubular column plugging technique we have developed resolves the problem of high water cut wells. This technique conducts a self-sealing test during multi-stage usage and is reliable to separate different production sets effectively. The water location switch forms a complete set by which the water locating and plugging can be finished in one trip. The tubular column is adaptable to several oil drilling methods and is available for water locating and plugging in second and third class layers.

Fissure Shaper. This is our proprietary product that is used along with a perforating gun to effectively increase perforation depth by between 46% and 80%, shape stratum fissures, improve stratum diversion capability and, as a result, improve our ability to locate oilfields and increase the output of oil wells.

Fracture Acidizing. We inject acid to layers under pressure, which can form or expand fissures. The treatment process of the acid is defined as fracture acidizing. The technique is mainly adapted to oil and gas wells that are blocked up relatively deeply, or oil and gas wells in low permeability zones.

Electronic Break-Down Service. This service resolves block-up and freezing problems by generating heat from the electric resistivity of the drive pipe and utilizing a loop tank composed of an oil pipe and a drive pipe. This technique saves energy and is environmentally friendly. It can increase the production of oilfields that are in the middle and later periods.

Automation System and Services

Pumping Unit Controller. This controller functions as a monitor to the pumping unit and also collects data for load, pressure, voltage, and startup and shutdown control.

RTU Monitor. This monitor collects gas well pressure data.

Wireless Dynamometer and Wireless Pressure Gauge. These products replace wired technology with cordless displacement sensor technology. They are easy to install and significantly reduce the work load associated with cable laying.

Electric Multi-way Valve for Oilfield Metering Station Flow Control. This multi-way valve is used before the test separator to replace the existing three valve manifolds. It facilitates the electronic control of the connection of the oil lead pipeline with the separator.

Natural Gas Flow Computer System. The flow computer system is used in natural gas stations and gas distribution stations to measure flow.

Recon Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition System (“SCADA”). Recon SCADA is a system which applies to the oil well, measurement station and the union station for supervision and data collection.

EPC Service of Pipeline SCADA System. This service technique is used for pipeline monitoring and data acquisition after crude oil transmission.

EPC Service of Oil and Gas Wells SCADA System. This service technique is used for monitoring and data acquisition of oil wells and natural gas wells.

EPC Service of Oilfield Video Surveillance and Control System. This video surveillance technique is used for controlling the oil and gas wellhead area and the measurement station area.

Technique Service for “Digital oilfield” Transformation. This service includes engineering technique services such as oil and gas SCADA systems, video surveillance and control systems and communication systems.

Factors Affecting Our Business

Business Outlook

The oilfield engineering and technical service industry is generally divided into five sections: (1) exploration, (2) drilling and completion, (3) testing and logging, (4) production and (5) oilfield construction. Thus far our businesses have been involved in the completion, production and construction processes. Our management still believes we need to expand our core business, move into new markets and develop new businesses quickly for the coming years. Management anticipates there will be opportunities in new markets and our existing markets. We also believe that many existing wells and oilfields need to improve or renew their equipment and service to maintain production and techniques and services like ours will be needed as new oil and gas fields are developed. In the next three years, we plan to focus on:

Measuring Equipment and Service . Digital oil field technology and the management of oil companies are highly regarded in the industry. We believe our oilfield SCADA system and assorted products, production managing expert software, and related technical support services will address the needs of the oil well automation system market, for which we believe there will be increasing demand over the short term and strong needs in the long term.

Gathering and Transferring Equipment . With more new wells developed, our management anticipates that demand for our furnaces and burners will grow as compared to last year, especially in the Qinghai Oilfield and Zhongyuan Oilfield.

New business . We are in the process of expanding our business through the acquisition of a down-hole service company. We also have developed new products for oilfield wastewater treatment and achieved preliminary business on this segment. Our management anticipates expanding the new business more rapidly in the coming year.

Growth Strategy

As a smaller China-focused company, our basic strategy focuses on developing our onshore oilfield business in the upstream sector of the industry. Due to the remote location and difficult environments of China’s oil and gas fields, historically, foreign competitors have rarely entered those areas directly.

Large domestic oil companies have historically focused on their exploration and development businesses to earn higher margins and maintain their competitive advantage. With regard to private oilfield service companies, we estimate that approximately 90% specialize in the manufacture of drilling and production equipment. Thus, the market for technical support and project service is still in its early stage. Our management is focused on providing high quality products and services in oilfields in which we have a geographical advantage. This helps us to avoid conflicts of interest with bigger suppliers of drilling equipment while protecting our position within this market segment. Our mission is to increase the automation and safety levels of industrial petroleum production in China and improve the underdeveloped working process and management mode used by many companies by providing advanced technologies. At the same time, we are always looking to improve our business and to increase our earning capability.

Recent Industry Developments

Affected by the worldwide decrease in oil prices, CNPC and Sinopec, mother companies of our direct clients, cut off their Capital Expenditure and production activities, resulting in a declining market and intensive competition. Management will closely monitor the situation and will seek to extend our business on the industrial chain, such as through providing more integrated services and advanced products and through growing our business from a predominantly up-ground business to include some down-hole services as well.

Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations

Our operating results in any period are subject to general conditions typically affecting the Chinese oilfield service industry including:

•

Oil and gas price;

•

the amount of spending by our customers, primarily those in the oil and gas industry;

•

growing demand from large corporations for improved management and software designed to achieve such corporate performance;

•

the procurement processes of our customers, especially those in the oil and gas industry;

•

competition and related pricing pressure from other oilfield service solution providers, especially those targeting the Chinese oil and gas industry;

•

the ongoing development of the oilfield service market in China; and

•

inflation and other macroeconomic factors.

Unfavorable changes in any of these general conditions could negatively affect the number and size of the projects we undertake, the number of products we sell, the amount of services we provide, the price of our products and services, and otherwise affect our results of operations.

Our operating results in any period are more directly affected by company-specific factors including:

•

our revenue growth, in terms of the proportion of our business dedicated to large companies and our ability to successfully develop, introduce and market new solutions and services;

•

our ability to increase our revenues from both old and new customers in the oil and gas industry in China;

•

our ability to effectively manage our operating costs and expenses; and

•

our ability to effectively implement any targeted acquisitions and/or strategic alliances so as to provide efficient access to markets and industries in the oil and gas industry in China.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Estimates and Assumptions

We prepare our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”), which require us to make judgments, estimates and assumptions. We continually evaluate these estimates and assumptions based on the most recently available information, our own historical experience and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Since the use of estimates is an integral component of the financial reporting process, actual results could differ from those estimates. An accounting policy is considered critical if it requires an accounting estimate to be made based on assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time such estimate is made, and if different accounting estimates that reasonably could have been used, or changes in the accounting estimates that are reasonably likely to occur periodically, could materially impact the consolidated financial statements. We believe that the following policies involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity in their application and require us to make significant accounting estimates. The following descriptions of critical accounting policies, judgments and estimates should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and other disclosures included in this quarterly report. Significant accounting estimates reflected in our Company’s consolidated financial statements include revenue recognition, allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory valuation, warrants liability, fair value of share based payments, and useful lives of property and equipment.

Consolidation of VIEs

We recognize an entity as a VIE if it either (i) has insufficient equity to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support or (ii) has equity investors who lack the characteristics of a controlling financial interest. We consolidate a VIE as our primary beneficiary when we have both the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE. We perform ongoing assessments to determine whether an entity should be considered a VIE and whether an entity previously identified as a VIE continues to be a VIE and whether we continue to be the primary beneficiary.

Assets recognized as a result of consolidating VIEs do not represent additional assets that could be used to satisfy claims against our general assets. Conversely, liabilities recognized as a result of consolidating these VIEs do not represent additional claims on our general assets; rather, they represent claims against the specific assets of the consolidated VIEs.

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue when the following four criteria are met: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (2) delivery has occurred or services have been provided, (3) the sales price is fixed or determinable, and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. Delivery does not occur until products have been shipped or services have been provided to the customers and the customers have signed a completion and acceptance report, risk of loss has transferred to the customer, customer acceptance provisions have lapsed, or the Company has objective evidence that the criteria specified in a customer’s acceptance provisions have been satisfied. The sales price is not considered to be fixed or determinable until all contingencies related to the sale have been resolved.

Hardware

Revenue from hardware sales is generally recognized when the product is shipped to the customer and when there are no unfulfilled company obligations that affect the customer’s final acceptance of the arrangement.

Software

The Company sells self-developed software. For software sales, the Company recognizes revenues in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification, Topic 985-605, “Software Revenue Recognition,” and related interpretations. Revenue from software is recognized according to project contracts. Contract costs are accumulated during the periods of installation and testing or commissioning. Usually this is short term. Revenue is not recognized until completion of the contracts and receipt of acceptance statements.

Services

The Company provides services to improve software functions and system requirements on separated fixed-price contracts. Revenue is recognized when services are completed and acceptance is determined by a completion report signed by the customer.

Deferred income represents unearned amounts billed to customers related to sales contracts.

Cost of Revenues

When the criteria for revenue recognition have been met, costs incurred are recognized as cost of revenue. Cost of revenues includes wages, materials, handling charges, the cost of purchased equipment and pipes, other expenses associated with manufactured products and services provided to customers, and inventory reserve. We expect cost of revenues to grow as our revenues grow. It is possible that we could incur development costs with little revenue recognition, but based upon our past history, we expect our revenues to grow.

Fair Values of Financial Instruments

The US GAAP accounting standards regarding fair value of financial instruments and related fair value measurements define fair value, establish a three-level valuation hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.

The three levels of inputs are defined as follows:

Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

Level 3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable.

The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for trade accounts receivable, other receivables, advances to suppliers, trade accounts payable, accrued liabilities, advances from customers and notes payable approximate fair value because of the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments. Long-term receivables and borrowings approximate fair value because their interest rates charged approximate the market rates for financial instruments with similar terms. The fair value of the warrants liability was determined using the Black-Scholes Model, as Level 2 inputs (See Note 13). Any changes in the assumptions that are used in the Black-Scholes Model may increase or decrease the warrants liability from quarter to quarter. Any change in the estimate of the fair value of the warrants liability would be charged to operations.

Receivables

Trade receivables are carried at the original invoiced amount less a provision for any potential uncollectible amounts. Provisions are applied to trade receivables where events or changes in circumstances indicate that the balance may not be collectible. The identification of doubtful accounts requires the use of judgment and estimates of management. Our management must make estimates of the collectability of our accounts receivable. Management specifically analyzes accounts receivable, historical bad debts, customer creditworthiness, current economic trends and changes in our customer payment terms when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts. Increases in our allowance for doubtful accounts would lower our net income and earnings per share.

Deferred Tax Estimates

As part of the process of preparing our consolidated financial statements, we are required to estimate our income taxes in each of the tax jurisdictions in which we operate. This process involves using an asset and liability approach whereby deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded for differences in the financial reporting bases and tax bases of our assets and liabilities. Deferred tax accounting requires that we evaluate net deferred tax assets by jurisdiction to determine if these assets will more likely than not be realized. This analysis requires considerable judgment and is subject to change to reflect future events and changes in the tax laws. If an allowance is established against our deferred tax assets because they may not be fully realizable in the future, our net income and earnings per share would decrease.

Valuation of Long-Lived Assets

We review the carrying values of our long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that they may not be recoverable. When such an event occurs, we project undiscounted cash flows to be generated from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition over the remaining life of the asset. If projections indicate that the carrying value of the long-lived asset will not be recovered, we reduce the carrying value of the long-lived asset by the estimated excess of the carrying value over the projected discounted cash flows. In the past, we have not had to make significant adjustments to the carrying values of our long-lived assets, and we do not anticipate a need to do so in the future. However, circumstances could cause us to have to reduce the value of our capitalized assets more rapidly than we have in the past if our revenues were to significantly decline. Estimated cash flows from the use of the long-lived assets are highly uncertain and therefore the estimation of the need to impair these assets is reasonably likely to change in the future. Should the economy or acceptance of our assets change in the future, it is likely that our estimate of the future cash flows from the use of these assets will change by a material amount. There were no impairments at June 30, 2015 and March 31, 2016. However, if impairment were required, our net income and earnings per share would decrease accordingly.

Share-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for share-based compensation in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Share-Based Payment. Under the fair value recognition provisions of this topic, share-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as expense with graded vesting on a straight–line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award. The Company has elected mainly utilize the Black-Scholes valuation model to estimate an award’s fair value.

Recently enacted accounting pronouncements

In January 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-01, Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. The new guidance makes targeted improvements to existing U.S. GAAP by: (1) Requiring equity investments to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income; (2) Requiring separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset on the balance sheet or the accompanying notes to the financial statements; (3) Eliminating the requirement for public business entities to disclose the method(s) and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost on the balance sheet; and. (4) Requiring a reporting organization to present separately in other comprehensive income the portion of the total change in the fair value of a liability resulting from a change in the instrument-specific credit risk. The new guidance is effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company does not expect this update will have a material impact on the presentation of the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which supersedes the existing guidance for lease accounting, Leases (Topic 840). ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to recognize leases on their balance sheets, and leaves lessor accounting largely unchanged. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted for all entities. ASU 2016-02 requires a modified retrospective approach for all leases existing at, or entered into after, the date of initial application, with an option to elect to use certain transition relief. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new standard on its consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-06, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Contingent Put and Call Options in Debt Instruments. The amendments apply to all entities that are issuers of or investors in debt instruments (or hybrid financial instruments that are determined to have a debt host) with embedded call (put) options. The amendments clarify what steps are required when assessing whether the economic characteristics and risks of call (put) options are clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of their debt hosts, which is one of the criteria for bifurcating an embedded derivative. Consequently, when a call (put) option is contingently exercisable, an entity does not have to assess whether the event that triggers the ability to exercise a call (put) option is related to interest rates or credit risks. Public business entities must apply the new requirements for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016 and interim periods within those fiscal years. All other entities must apply the new requirements for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. All entities have the option of adopting the new requirements early, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity early adopts the new requirements in an interim period, it must reflect any adjustments as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. The Company does not expect any material impact of this new standard on its consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-07, Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Simplifying the Transition to the Equity Method of Accounting. The amendments affect all entities that have an investment that becomes qualified for the equity method of accounting as a result of an increase in the level of ownership interest or degree of influence. The amendments eliminate the requirement that when an investment qualifies for use of the equity method as a result of an increase in the level of ownership interest or degree of influence, an investor must adjust the investment, results of operations, and retained earnings retroactively on a step-by-step basis as if the equity method had been in effect during all previous periods that the investment had been held. The amendments require that the equity method investor add the cost of acquiring the additional interest in the investee to the current basis of the investor’s previously held interest and adopt the equity method of accounting as of the date the investment becomes qualified for equity method accounting. Therefore, upon qualifying for the equity method of accounting, no retroactive adjustment of the investment is required. The amendments require that an entity that has an available-for-sale equity security that becomes qualified for the equity method of accounting recognize through earnings the unrealized holding gain or loss in accumulated other comprehensive income at the date the investment becomes qualified for use of the equity method. The amendments are effective for all entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2016. The amendments should be applied prospectively upon their effective date to increases in the level of ownership interest or degree of influence that result in the adoption of the equity method. Earlier application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new standard on its consolidated financial statements.

In April 2016, the FASB released ASU 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting . The ASU includes multiple provisions intended to simplify various aspects of the accounting for share-based payments. While aimed at reducing the cost and complexity of the accounting for share-based payments, the amendments are expected to significantly impact net income, EPS, and the statement of cash flows. Implementation and administration may present challenges for companies with significant share-based payment activities. The ASU is effective for public companies in annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new standard on its consolidated financial statements.

In April 2016, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing . The amendments clarify the following two aspects of Topic 606: (a) identifying performance obligations; and (b) the licensing implementation guidance. The amendments do not change the core principle of the guidance in Topic 606. The effective date and transition requirements for the amendments are the same as the effective date and transition requirements in Topic 606. Public entities should apply the amendments for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods therein (i.e., January 1, 2018, for a calendar year entity). Early application for public entities is permitted only as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new standard on its consolidated financial statements.

Results of Operations

The following consolidated results of operations include the results of operations of the Company and its variable interest entities (“VIEs”), BHD and Nanjing Recon.

Our historical reporting results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any future period.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2016 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2015

For the three months ended March 31, 2016, oil price continued to be low, and our clients’ production activities and spending were kept at a minimum level. Thus, our operations and numbers still suffered from these adverse effects.

Our total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2016 were approximately ¥4.5 million ($0.7 million), a decrease of approximately ¥15.5 million or 77.3% from ¥20.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015. This was mainly caused by a decreased demand from our clients and intensely competitive market conditions. In more detail:

	1)	Hardware revenue. During this quarter, both furnaces and automation products sales decreased as a result of lower demand from our clients as compared to the same period last year. Hardware revenues for the quarter of fiscal 2015 were mainly from projects we tracked a year earlier from our major clients, CNPC and Sinopec, who were evaluating and adjusting their business plans, kept their spending lower for 2015 . As a result, there were fewer projects started, causing less revenue for the Company for the third quarter of fiscal 2016. As oil prices have rebounded a bit in the first three months of 2016, our management expects this unfavorable trend will ease but expect reduced revenue to continue for some period.

Software revenue. Software used in oilfield production management is highly recommended, but not essential. As a result, sales and revenue related to software may fluctuate. During the three-month period, there were no software sales.

Margin %		31.2	%		37.5	%		6.3	%

Cost of revenues . Our cost of revenues includes raw materials and costs related to the design, implementation, delivery and maintenance of products and services. All materials and components we need can be purchased or manufactured by subcontractors. Usually the prices of electronic components do not fluctuate dramatically due to market competition and will not significantly affect our cost of revenues. However, specialized equipment and incentive chemical products may be directly influenced by metal and oil price fluctuations. Additionally, the prices of some imported accessories mandated by our customers can also impact our cost. Inventory reserves for changes in price level, impairment of inventory, slow moving or other causes will also affect our cost.

Our cost of revenues decreased from approximately ¥13.8 million in the three months ended March 31, 2015 to approximately ¥2.8 million ($0.4 million) for the same period in 2016, a decrease of approximately ¥11.0 million ($1.7 million), or 79.4%. This decrease was mainly caused by lower revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2016 compared to the same period of 2015.

Gross profit . Our gross profit decreased to approximately ¥1.7 million ($0.3 million) for the three months ended March 31, 2016 from approximately ¥6.2 million for the same period in 2015 due to revenue decrease. Our gross profit as a percentage of revenue increased to 37.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2016 from 31.2% for the same period in 2015. This was mainly caused by deferred income recognized as revenue in the 2016 period with little cost accrued.

Our software and hardware revenues are detailed below:

Revenue from hardware and software to non-related parties decreased by approximately ¥13.8 million mainly due to the decrease of hardware products sold in the three months ended March 31, 2016. The gross profit from hardware and software sales to non-related parties decreased ¥2.9 million ($0.5 million) compared to the same period last year. As a percentage of revenue, gross margin was 25.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 37.5% for the three month period ended March 31, 2016. This increase was mainly because we had higher portions of consignment sales with lower margins in 2015 while there was no such business for 2016.

Selling and distribution expenses . Selling and distribution expenses consist primarily of salaries and related expenditures of our sales and marketing organization, sales commissions, costs of our marketing programs including travelling charges, advertising and trade shows, and an allocation of our facilities, depreciation expenses and rental expense, as well as shipping charges and related expenses. Selling expenses decreased 26.2% or ¥0.3 million ($45.1 thousand), from approximately ¥1.1 million in the three months ended March 31, 2015 to approximately ¥0.8 million ($0.1 million) in the same period of 2016. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in traveling expense and payroll expense. Selling expenses were 5.5% of total revenues in the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 18.0% of total revenues in the same period of 2016.

General and administrative expenses . General and administrative expenses consist primarily of costs in human resources, facilities costs, depreciation expenses, professional advisor fees, audit fees, option expenses stock based comprehensive expense, bad debt allowance and other miscellaneous expenses incurred in connection with general operations. General and administrative expenses increased by 88.5% or ¥3.7 million ($0.6 million), from approximately ¥4.2 million in the three months ended March 31, 2015 to approximately ¥7.9 million ($1.2 million) in the same period of 2016. General and administrative expenses were 20.9% of total revenues in the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 174.0% of total revenues in the same period of 2016. The increase in general and administrative expenses was mainly due to an increase in share-based compensation and provisions accrued for doubtful advanced purchases. We made partial advanced payments for customized products for some projects in year 2014. As these projects were postponed and products design would need to be modified, management made provisions for these amounts based on best estimation. Management is also negotiating with clients to minimize the loss.

Research and development (“R&D”) expenses . Research and development expenses consist primarily of salaries and related expenditures of our research and development projects. Research and development expenses increased from approximately ¥0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 to approximately ¥1.2 million ($0.2 million) for the same period of 2016. This increase was primarily due to more research and development expense on new generation automation platform system.

Loss from operations . Loss from operations was approximately ¥8.2 million ($1.3 million) for the three months ended March 31, 2016, compared to an income of ¥0.4 million for the same period of 2015. This decrease in income from operations was primary due to a decrease in revenues and increased general and administrative expenses.

Interest and other income (expense). Interest and other income was approximately ¥31.6 thousand ($5.0 thousand) for the three months ended March 31, 2016, compared to interest and other expense of ¥2.0 million for the same period of 2015. The ¥2.0 million ($0.3 million) decrease in interest and other expense was primarily due to the decreased loss from warrants redemption, which only accrued for the three months ended March 31, 2015.

Provision (benefit) for income tax . Benefit for income tax for the three months ended March 31, 2015 was approximately ¥0.2 million. Provision for income tax was ¥1.4 million ($0.2 million) for the three months ended March 31, 2016. This increase in provision for income tax was mainly due to decrease of deferred tax assets recorded and income tax payable true-up during the three months ended March 31, 2016. During this period, based on available evidence, management concluded that it was more likely than not that there would be no sufficient deductible income in future years and revaluated the deferred tax assets and the adjustment was recorded as part of the total income tax provision.

Net loss . As a result of the factors described above, net loss was approximately ¥9.6 million ($1.5 million) for the three months ended March 31, 2016, a decrease of approximately ¥8.2 million ($1.3 million) from net loss of ¥1.4 million for the same period of 2015.

Net loss attributable to Recon Technology, Ltd . As a result of the factors described above, net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders was approximately ¥9.6 million ($1.5 million) for the three months ended March 31, 2016. Net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders increased for approximately ¥8.1 million ($1.3 million) from net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of approximately ¥1.5 million for same period of 2015.

Our cost of revenues decreased from approximately ¥29.8 million in the nine months ended March 31, 2015 to approximately ¥29.1 million ($4.5 million) for the same period in 2016, a decrease of approximately ¥0.7 million ($0.1 million), or 2.3%. This decrease was mainly caused by lower revenue during the nine months ended March 31, 2016 compared to the same period of 2015.

Gross profit . Our gross profit decreased to approximately ¥7.9 million ($1.2 million) for the nine months ended March 31, 2016 from approximately ¥15.8 million for the same period in 2015. Our gross profit as a percentage of revenue decreased to 21.3% for the nine months ended March 31, 2016 from 34.7% for the same period in 2015. This was mainly due to the decrease of (1) software sales with higher margins as compared with hardware revenues and (2) lower margins related to our bundled product and service agreements due to the fiercely competitive environment existing in the oil sector this year.

After the Company achieved business entrance certification and were able to cooperate with oilfield customers directly two years ago, we no longer required the services of a related party with such certification and, accordingly, revenue from related-parties decreased. As of result, there was no revenue or cost of hardware and software from related parties during 2016, since we developed business directly with oilfield, rather than cooperation with some local agency, which used to be our related parties.

Loss from operations . Loss from operations was approximately ¥20.2 million ($3.1 million) for the nine months ended March 31, 2016, compared to a loss of ¥1.7 million for the same period of 2015. This increase in loss from operations was primary due to a decrease in gross profit, an increase in R&D expenses and increase in stock based compensation and allowance accrued for doubtful accounts.

Interest and other income (expense) . Interest and other expense was approximately ¥0.3 million ($0.04 million) for the nine months ended March 31, 2016, compared to interest and other income of ¥2.3 million for the same period of 2015. The ¥2.6 million ($0.4 million) decrease in interest and other income was primarily due to gain from change in fair value of warrants liability while there was no such gain for the current period.

Provision for income tax . Provision for income tax for the nine months ended March 31, 2015 was approximately ¥0.5 million. Provision for income tax was ¥0.5 million ($0.1 million) for the nine months ended March 31, 2016. This slight increase in provision for income tax was mainly due to deferred tax assets changes, offset by prior period income tax payable true-up during the nine months ended March 31, 2016.

Net income (loss) . As a result of the factors described above, net loss was approximately ¥21.0 million ($3.3 million) for the nine months ended March 31, 2016, a decrease of approximately ¥21.2 million ($3.3 million) from net income of ¥0.2 million for the same period of 2015.

Net loss attributable to Recon Technology, Ltd . As a result of the factors described above, net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders was approximately ¥21.0 million ($3.3 million) for the nine months ended March 31, 2016, a change of approximately ¥20.6 million ($3.2 million) from net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of approximately ¥0.4 million for same period of 2015.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA. We define adjusted EBITDA as net loss adjusted for income tax expense (benefit), interest expense, change in fair value of warrants liability, non-cash stock compensation expense, depreciation and amortization. We think it is useful to an equity investor in evaluating our operating performance because: (1) it is widely used by investors in our industry to measure a company’s operating performance without regard to items such as interest expense, depreciation and amortization, which can vary substantially from company to company depending upon accounting methods and book value of assets, capital structure and the method by which the assets were acquired; and (2) it helps investors more meaningfully evaluate and compare the results of our operations from period to period by removing the impact of our capital structure and asset base from our operating results.

This was mainly due to decreased gross profit, increased research and development expenses and increased bad debt allowances.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2016, we had cash in the amount of approximately ¥2.6 million ($0.4 million). As of June 30, 2015, we had cash in the amount of approximately ¥12.3 million.

Indebtedness . As of March 31, 2016, except for approximately ¥8.6 million ($1.3 million) of short-term borrowings from related parties, and ¥7.0 million ($1.1 million) in commercial loans from local banks, we did not have any finance leases or purchase commitments, guarantees or other material contingent liabilities.

Holding Company Structure . We are a holding company with no operations of our own. All of our operations are conducted through our Domestic Companies. As a result, our ability to pay dividends and to finance any debt that we may incur is dependent upon the receipt of dividends and other distributions from the Domestic Companies. In addition, Chinese legal restrictions permit payment of dividends to us by our Domestic Companies only out of their respective accumulated net profits, if any, determined in accordance with Chinese accounting standards and regulations. Under Chinese law, our Domestic Companies are required to set aside a portion (at least 10%) of their after-tax net income (after discharging all cumulated loss), if any, each year for compulsory statutory reserve until the amount of the reserve reaches 50% of our Domestic Companies’ registered capital. These funds may be distributed to shareholders at the time of each Domestic Company’s wind up.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements . We have not entered into any financial guarantees or other commitments to guarantee the payment obligations of any third parties. In addition, we have not entered into any derivative contracts that are indexed to our own shares and classified as shareholders’ equity, or that are not reflected in our financial statements. Furthermore, we do not have any retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to an unconsolidated entity that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support to such entity. Moreover, we do not have any variable interest in an unconsolidated entity that provides financing, liquidity, market risk or credit support to us or engages in leasing, hedging or research and development services with us.

Capital Resources . To date we have financed our operations primarily through cash flows from operations, bank loans and short-term borrowings and loans from related parties. As of March 31, 2016, we had total assets of approximately ¥102.4 million ($15.9 million), which includes cash of approximately ¥2.6 million ($0.4 million), net accounts receivable due from third parties of approximately ¥50.2 million ($7.8 million), working capital amounted to approximately ¥64.3 million ($10.0 million), and shareholders’ equity amounted to approximately ¥59.7 million ($9.3 million).

Cash from Operating Activities . Net cash used in operating activities was approximately ¥1.3 million ($0.2 million) for the nine months ended March 31, 2016. This was a decrease of approximately ¥14.9 million ($2.2 million) compared to net cash used in operating activities of approximately ¥16.2 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2015. The decrease in net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended March 31, 2016, was primarily attributable to the ¥5.7 million ($0.9 million) change in trade accounts receivable due from third parties, ¥4.6 million ($0.7 million), change in trade accounts receivable due from related parties and ¥4.4 million ($0.7 million) change in change in purchase advance.

Cash from Investing Activities . Net cash used in investing activities was approximately ¥0.4 million ($68.6 thousand) for the nine months ended March 31, 2016, increased approximately ¥0.3 million compared to the same period in 2015, which is due to the decrease in proceeds from disposal of equipment.

Cash from Financing Activities . Net cash used in financing activities amounted to ¥8.1 million ($1.2 million) for the nine months ended March 31, 2016, as compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $3.0 million for the same period in 2015. During the nine months ended March 31, 2016, we repaid ¥16.7 million ($2.6 million) short-term borrowings to two related parties and repaid ¥0.5 million ($0.1 million) short-term bank loans, and we received ¥8.5 million ($1.3 million) from one related party and received ¥0.5 million ($0.1 million) short-term bank loans.

Working Capital . Total working capital as of March 31, 2016 amounted to approximately ¥64.3 million ($10.0 million), compared to approximately ¥72.4 million as of June 30, 2015. Total current assets as of March 31, 2016 amounted to approximately ¥98.8 million ($15.3 million), a decrease of approximately ¥25.7 million ($4.0 million) compared to approximately ¥124.5 million at June 30, 2015. The decrease in total current assets at March 31, 2016 compared to June 30, 2015 was mainly due to decreases in cash and purchase advances.

Current liabilities amounted to approximately ¥34.5 million ($5.4 million) at March 31, 2016, in comparison to approximately ¥52.1 million at June 30, 2015. This decrease of liabilities was attributable mainly to a decrease in short-term borrowings-related parties, other payable-related parties and other payable-third parties.

Capital Needs. With the uncertainty of the current market, our management believes it is necessary to enhance collection of outstanding balance of accounts receivable and other receivables, and to be cautious on operational decisions and project selection. Our management believes that our current operations can satisfy our daily working capital needs. We may also raise capital through public offering or private placement to finance our development of our business and to consummate any merger and acquisition, if necessary.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of March 31, 2016, the company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision of and with the participation of management, including our Company’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our Company’s disclosure controls and procedures under the 2013 COSO framework. Based on the foregoing, the chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) were ineffective in timely alerting them to information required to be included in the Company’s periodic Securities and Exchange Commission filings.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Management continues to focus on internal control over financial reporting. As of March 31, 2016, the Company intends to further implement the following remedial initiatives:

¨ Improve the design and documentation related to multiple levels of review over financial statements included in our SEC filings;

¨ Expand the design and assessment test work over the monitoring function of entity level controls;

¨ Enhance documentation retention policies over test work related to continuous management assessments of internal control effectiveness; and

¨ Expand documentation practices and policies related to various key controls to provide support and audit trails for both internal management assessment as well as external auditor testing.

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) during the nine months ended March 31, 2016 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, except as disclosed above.

RECON TECHNOLOGY, LTD

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS

Organization –Recon Technology, Ltd (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands on August 21, 2007 by Messrs. Yin Shenping, Chen Guangqiang and Li Hongqi (the “Founders”) as a limited liability company. The Company provides specialized oilfield equipment, automation systems, tools, chemicals and field services to petroleum companies mainly in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”).

The Company, along with its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Recon Technology Co., Limited (“Recon HK”), Jining Recon Technology Ltd. (“Recon JN”), Recon Investment Ltd. (“Recon IN”) and Recon Hengda Technology (Beijing) Co., Ltd. (“Recon BJ”), conducts its business through the following PRC legal entities that are consolidated as variable interest entities (“VIEs”) and operate in the Chinese oilfield equipment & service industry:

Beijing BHD Petroleum Technology Co., Ltd. (“BHD”),

Nanjing Recon Technology Co., Ltd. (“Nanjing Recon”), and

Huanghua BHD Petroleum equipment manufacturing Company, Ltd (“Hanghua BHD”).

On January 29, 2015, the Company increased its authorized shares from 25,000,000 to 100,000,000 ordinary shares.

Nature of Operations –The Company engaged in (1) providing equipment, tools and other hardware related to oilfield production and management, including simple installations in connection with some projects; (2) service to improve production and efficiency of exploited oil wells, and (3) developing and selling its own specialized industrial automation control and information solutions. The products and services provided by the Company include:

High-Efficiency Heating Furnaces - High-Efficiency Heating Furnaces are designed to remove the impurities and to prevent solidification blockage in transport pipes carrying crude petroleum. Crude petroleum contains certain impurities including water and natural gas, which must be removed before the petroleum can be sold.

Multi-Purpose Fissure Shaper - Multipurpose fissure shapers improve the extractors’ ability to test for and extract petroleum which requires perforation into the earth before any petroleum extractor can test for the presence of oil.

Horizontal Multistage Fracturing related Service - The Company mainly uses the Baker Hughes FracPoint™ system and provides related service to oilfield companies. The Baker Hughes FracPoint™ system provided a completion method using packers to isolate sections of the wellbore (stages) and frac sleeves to direct the frac treatment to the desired stage. The use of this type of completion eliminated the need for cementing the liner, coiled tubing operations, and wireline operations, while significantly reducing overall pumping time.

Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition System (“SCADA”) - SCADA is an industrial computerized process control system for monitoring, managing and controlling petroleum extraction. SCADA integrates underground and aboveground activities of the petroleum extraction industry. This system can help to manage the oil extraction process in real-time to reduce the costs associated with extraction.

NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of presentation - The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information pursuant to the rules of the SEC and have been consistently applied. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015. The results of operations for the interim periods presented may not be indicative of the operating results to be expected for the Company’s fiscal year ending June 30, 2016.

Principles of Consolidation – The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, all the subsidiaries and VIEs of the Company. All transactions and balances between the Company and its subsidiaries and VIEs have been eliminated upon consolidation.

Variable Interest Entities - A VIE is an entity that either (i) has insufficient equity to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support or (ii) has equity investors who lack the characteristics of a controlling financial interest. A VIE is consolidated by its primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary has both the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The Company performs ongoing assessments to determine whether an entity should be considered a VIE and whether an entity previously identified as a VIE continues to be a VIE and whether the Company continues to be the primary beneficiary.

Assets recognized as a result of consolidating VIEs do not represent additional assets that could be used to satisfy claims against the Company’s general assets. Conversely, liabilities recognized as a result of consolidating these VIEs do not represent additional claims on the Company’s general assets; rather, they represent claims against the specific assets of the consolidated VIEs.

Currency Translation - The Company’s functional currency is the Chinese Yuan (“RMB”) and the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been expressed in Chinese Yuan. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the nine months ended March 31, 2016 have been translated into United States dollars (“U.S. dollars”) solely for the convenience of the readers. The translation has been made at the rate of ¥6.4494 = US$1.00, the approximate exchange rate prevailing on March 31, 2016. These translated U.S. dollar amounts should not be construed as representing Chinese Yuan amounts or that the Chinese Yuan amounts have been or could be converted into U.S. dollars.

Estimates and assumptions - The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires that management make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Estimates are adjusted to reflect actual experience when necessary. Significant accounting estimates reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements include revenue recognition, allowance for doubtful accounts, allowance for inventory, deferred taxes, warrants liabilities, the useful lives of property and equipment and the fair value of share- based payments. Since the use of estimates is an integral component of the financial reporting process, actual results could differ from those estimates.

F- 6

Fair Values of Financial Instruments - The US GAAP accounting standards regarding fair value of financial instruments and related fair value measurements define fair value, establish a three-level valuation hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.

The three levels of inputs are defined as follows:

Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable.

The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for trade accounts receivable, other receivables, purchase advances, trade accounts payable, accrued liabilities, advances from customers, short-term bank loan and short-term borrowings approximate fair value because of the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments. It was impracticable to estimate the fair value of long-term other receivables, because this is due from the Company’s former VIE and there are no comparable markets for receivables with similar terms. Long-term investment is measured at fair value which was determined to be zero during the nine months ended March 31, 2016 using level 1 inputs. (See Note 8.)

The fair value of the warrants liability was determined using the Black-Scholes Model, as Level 2 inputs (See Note 13).

Trade Accounts and Other Receivables - Accounts receivable are carried at original invoiced amount less a provision for any potential uncollectible amounts. Accounts are considered past due when the related receivables are more than a year old. Provision is made against trade accounts and other receivables to the extent they are considered to be doubtful. Accounts are written off after extensive efforts at collection. Other receivables arise from transactions with non-trade customers.

Purchase Advances - Purchase advances are the amounts prepaid to suppliers for purchases of inventory and are recognized as inventory when the final amount is paid to the suppliers and the inventory is delivered.

Inventories - Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market value, on a weighted average basis for BHD. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market value, on a first-in-first-out basis for Nanjing Recon. The methods of determining inventory costs are used consistently from year to year. Allowance for inventory obsolescence is provided when the market value of certain inventory items are lower than the cost.

Property and Equipment - Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation on motor vehicles and office equipment is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from two to ten years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful life of the assets.

Items	Useful life
Motor vehicles	5-10 years
Office equipment	2-5 years
Leasehold improvement	5 years

F- 7

Long-term investment – Long-term investment in equity over which the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence but not control, and that, in general, are 20-50 percent owned, are stated at cost plus equity in undistributed net income (loss) of the investee. These investments are evaluated for impairment, in which an impairment loss would be recorded whenever a decline in the value of an equity investment below its carrying amount is determined to be “other than temporary.” In judging “other than temporary,” the Company would consider the length of time and extent to which the fair value of the investment has been less than the carrying amount of the investment, the near-term and longer-term operating and financial prospects of the investee, and the Company’s longer-term intent of retaining the investment in the investee.

Long-Lived Assets - The Company applies the ASC Topic 360 “Property, plant and equipment.” ASC Topic 360 requires that long-lived assets, such as property and equipment be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or asset group may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated undiscounted future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Fair value is determined based on the estimated discounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. There were no impairments at June 30, 2015 and March 31, 2016.

Revenue Recognition - The Company recognizes revenue when the following four criteria are met: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement, (2) delivery has occurred or services have been provided, (3) the sales price is fixed or determinable, and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. Delivery does not occur until products have been shipped or services have been provided to the customers and the customers have signed a completion and acceptance report, risk of loss has transferred to the customers, customers’ acceptance provisions have lapsed, or the Company has objective evidence that the criteria specified in customers’ acceptance provisions have been satisfied. The sales price is not considered to be fixed or determinable until all contingencies related to the sale have been resolved.

Hardware:

Software:

The Company sells self-developed software. For software sales, the Company recognizes revenues in accordance with ASC Topic 985 - 605 “Software Revenue Recognition.” Revenue from software is recognized according to project contracts. Contract costs are accumulated during the periods of installation and testing or commissioning. Usually this is short term. Revenue is not recognized until completion of the contracts and receipt of acceptance statements.

F- 8

Service:

The Company provides services to improve software function and system operation on separated fixed-price contracts. Revenue is recognized on the completed contract method when acceptance is determined by a completion report signed by the customer.

Deferred revenue represents unearned amounts billed to customers related to sales contracts.

Subsidy Income - Grants are given by the government to support local software companies’ operation and research and development. Grants related to research and development projects are recognized as subsidy income in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations when received. Grants in the form of value-added-tax refund for software products are recognized when received.

Share-Based Compensation - The Company accounts for share-based compensation in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Share-Based Payment. Under the fair value recognition provisions of this topic, share-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as expense with graded vesting on a straight–line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award. The Company has elected to recognize compensation expenses using the Binomial Lattice valuation model estimated at the grant date based on the award’s fair value.

Income Taxes - Income taxes are provided based upon the liability method of accounting pursuant to ASC Topic 740, Accounting for Income Taxes. Provisions for income taxes are based on taxes payable or refundable for the current year and deferred taxes. Deferred taxes are provided on differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial statements, and tax carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are included in the financial statements at currently enacted income tax rates applicable to the period in which the deferred tax assets and liabilities are expected to be realized or settled. As changes in tax laws or rates are enacted, deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted through the provision for income taxes. The Company has not been subject to any income taxes in the United States or the Cayman Islands.

Under ASC Topic 740, the Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position would be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Income tax returns for the year prior to 2010 are no longer subject to examination by tax authorities.

Earnings (loss) per Share (“EPS”) - Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding. Diluted EPS are computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of ordinary shares and dilutive potential ordinary share equivalents outstanding.

F- 9

Potentially dilutive ordinary shares consist of ordinary shares issuable upon the conversion of ordinary stock options, restricted shares and warrants (using the treasury stock method). The effect from options, restricted shares and warrants would have been anti-dilutive due to the fact that we incurred a net loss during the three months and nine months ended March 31, 2015 and 2016.

Since the restriction for the shares is for two years, the Company was able to acquire the shares at 50% of the market value. The investment was accounted for using the equity method and no gain or loss from equity investment was recorded for the year ended June 30, 2013 due to immateriality. As of June 30, 2015 and March 31, 2016, Recon owned 16.92% and 15.39% of Avalon’s outstanding shares, respectively. Avalon is an independent US domestic oil and natural gas producer listed on the OTCBB under the ticker symbol AOGN. Avalon engages in the acquisition, exploration and development of oil and gas producing properties in the US. Based on the available information and discussion with the management team of Avalon, the Company believes Avalon’s operating loss would not be recovered in the foreseeable future, therefore, the Company considered the investment to be impaired and recorded an investment loss of ¥1,535,250 ($250,000) for the year ended June 30, 2014 to write its investment down to zero.

On April 13, 2015, BHD reached an agreement to invest RMB 80 million in Huanghua Heng Da Xiang Tong Manufacture Ltd (“HHBHDXT”) for a 54.05% ownership interest. BHD’s board of Directors and shareholders approved the transaction to invest in HHBHD. The investment is to enhance cooperation with HHBHD and protect BHD’s design copyright. Based on mutual agreements, BHD shall not enjoy voting right until the payment of investment is on position. On March 18, 2016, BHD decided to terminate this investment transaction with HHBHDXT, and was no longer a shareholder of HHBHDXT. As of this termination, no payment was ever made to HHBHDXT.
