HANGZHOU,
China, July 2, 2009 -- China 3C Group ("China 3C" or the "Company") (OTC
Bulletin Board: CHCG), a retailer and wholesale distributor of consumer and
business products in China, today announced that it has completed the previously
announced acquisition of Jinhua Baofa Logistic, Ltd. ("Jinhua"), a
transportation logistics company in Eastern China.
As
previously disclosed on December 29, 2008, the transaction was structured as an
acquisition through the Company's subsidiaries, Zhejiang Yong Xin Digital
Technology Co., Ltd. and Yiwu Yong Xin Communication Ltd., for a cash
consideration of RMB 120 million (approximately US$17.4 million). For the year
ended December 31, 2008, Jinhua had revenue of $10.5 million, net income of $1.9
million and gross margin of 34.9%.
Jinhua is
a well-known transportation logistics company in Eastern China and has been a
long time transportation provider for China 3C. Jinhua has been in operation
since 2001 and employs approximately 350 people. Jinhua has approximately 280
customers and operates a fleet of more than 70 trucks and transports freight,
including electronics, machinery and equipment, metal products, chemical
materials, garments and handcrafted goods. Its transportation services cover
more than 20 cities in Eastern China, including many of the most developed
cities in the Eastern China region in which China 3C operates, such as Shanghai,
Hangzhou and Nanjing. Mr. Hongfei Guo, CEO of Jinhua, will continue to manage
the business following the closing of this acquisition.
Mr.
Zhenggang Wang, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of China 3C, commented, "We
are pleased to complete our acquisition of Jinhua and expand our logistical
capabilities. In addition to serving as a transportation provider to our
existing wholesale and retail store-in-store operations, we believe this
logistics company will allow us to more quickly expand into our newly
established direct store and franchise store businesses.
We have
combined Jinhua's transportation network with our distribution network, which we
believe will result in enhanced service and operating efficiency as we expand
our operations into new geographic areas in China. Jinhua's gross margin is
significantly higher than our other business segments, and we believe that
Jinhua can contribute at least $10 million in revenue and $2 million in net
income to our business annually".
Mr.
Hongfei Guo, CEO of Jinhua, commented, "We are very proud to join China 3C Group
and contribute to their operating strategy. At the same time, we believe that
China 3C can provide us with greater financial strength, and enhance our growth
in new and existing markets".
