Financial Performance:

Revenues in fiscal 2008 recorded growth of 29.6% to $45,681,000, versus revenues of $35,236,000 in fiscal 2007. The revenue from sales of components increased by 44.2% whereas revenue from design services increased by 17.9%.

The growth was principally attributed to more design kick-offs and diversified market stratagem. During the year, T-Bay has introduced 31 design solutions based on three chipset platforms which made its product lines covering different market segments.

T-Bay has also developed feature phones for specific targeted markets. The world’s first phone solution with ECG (Electrocardiogram) monitor was developed for healthcare institutions; the phone solution with push-to-talk was developed for hotel and convention center employees; the phone solution with PHS (Personal Handy-phone System) was targeted to customers in remote areas in China and the phones have been used for rescue in the Sichuan Earth Quake two months ago; Dual-SIM card solutions were targeted to frequent business travelers. The diversified market stratagem demonstrates T-Bay’s competitive strength among other design houses in China and will bring higher profit margin than common solutions.

Net income rose 19.2% in fiscal 2008 to $14,554,000 from $12,203,000 in fiscal 2007, driven primarily by the increase income form design services, and it was the highest record in five years’ operation history.

“In addition to feature phones and 3G phone developed, we were involved in components design in automobile wireless technology and railway wireless communication system” said Jie Shi, T-Bay’s chief executive officer, “we are now working with technology partners to develop TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System) sensors for local car manufacturers. It is the first step to enter in the automobile design industry. The application of wireless technology in automobile is another exciting market for us as wireless expert in China.”

Concerning the late filing, Mr. Jie Shi explained, “we apologize for the late filing of the Form 10-K because it’s the first time we file 10-K instead of 10KSB. We will enhance operation efficiency to prevent late filing from happening again.”

The company also disclosed in its 10K that it is in process of applying for AMEX listing.
