Management Discussion and Analysis

Sales
 
Sales for the year ended December 31, 2014 were $4,276,255, compared to the sales of $16,838,764 for the year ended December 31, 2013, a decrease of $ 12,562,509 or approximately 74.6% for the year ended December 31, 2014. The primary reasons for the decrease in sales is that the Company engaged in purchase and sale transactions during 2013 that had features of high turnover and low margin, with increased sales as a result. The Company did not pursue that kind of transaction during 2014, which has resulted in reduced sales but improved margins.


Net income/loss
 
We recorded net loss of $4,037,269 and $2,518,130 for the years ended December 31, 2014, and 2013, respectively.  The net loss for the year ended December 31, 2013 was the result of netting our loss from continuing operations against the gain of $613,218 that we realized on the sale of our discontinued operation.

Management Discussion and Analysis

Results of Operations
 
Sales
 
Sales for the years ended December 31, 2013 were $16,838,764, compared to the sales of $4,082,303 for the year ended December 31, 2012, an increase of $ 12,756,461 or approximately 312.5% for the year. The primary reasons for the increase in sales were:
 
·Sales orders increased due to more incentives for sales people as a result of the reform enforced in the purchase department and sales department since last year.

·The special trading business we started this April has the features of high turnover , although it yields a low profit margin. 

·Compared to 2013, the market in 2012 was rather depressed.


Net income/loss
 
We recorded net loss of $2,518,130 and $5,227,750 for the year ended December 31, 2013, and 2012, respectively.  The net loss for the year ended December 31, 2013 was the result of netting our loss from continuing operations against the gain of $613,218 that we realized on the sale of our discontinued operation. The decrease in net loss during December 31, 2013 was mainly because of the significant improvement in revenue and gross profit, resulted in a reduction of $2,709,620 in our net loss.

Investor Alert
The Company believes that its cash flows generated internally may not be sufficient to sustain operations and repay short term bank loans for the next twelve months. Therefore, from time to time, the Company may require extra funding through short term borrowing from PRC banks or other financing activities if needed in the near future.

(OTCBB: ASOE) ("Apollo" or "the Company"), a vertically integrated refiner and producer of high purity tellurium (Te), tellurium-based compounds and other metals for the solar photovoltaic (PV) industry and specific segments of the electronic materials market worldwide reported its first quarter 2011 earnings in its Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 16, 2011.

  • Sales for the three months ended March 31, 2011 were $3,783,220, compared to the sales of $1,073,774 in the same period in 2010, an increase of $2,709,446, or approximately 252%. 
  • For the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company had net income of $79,593, compared to a net loss of $1,086,159 for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The primary reasons for the increase in net income for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was an increase in sales, and the reduction of general and administrative expenses, plus interest income of a loan to related parties.

"Apollo turned profitable in the first quarter of 2011. We believe this change in our results of operations strongly indicates we are now on the right track," Dr. Jingong Pan, CEO of Apollo Solar, stated. "We believe that our new marketing strategy to increase three product lines such as material for solar panel glass, material for signal integrated processors, and substrate material for LED panels will further our future success. Additionally, we expect the Chinese government support of solar energy development will increase demand for our products in 2011 and well into the future."

Liquidity Requirements
We have accumulated significant net losses from our inception through December 31, 2010 and we may be unable to generate significant revenue or any net income in the future. We cannot predict when, or if, we will become profitable in the future. Even if we achieve profitability, we may not be able to sustain it. We have funded our operations primarily through the issuance of equity and debt securities to investors and may not be able to generate a positive cash flow in the future.
