Management's Discussion & Analysis of the Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2010
The following analysis compares the results of operations for the second quarter of 2010 with the results of operations for the second quarter of 2009.
Revenue
Revenue for the second quarter ended June 30, 2010 was $42.9 million, an increase of 234.6% from $12.8 million in the second quarter of 2009. The Company relocated its manufacturing facility in mid-2009 which increased the Company's production capacity thereby enabling the Company to sell more units. The Company saw strong sales growth through both traditional channels and the rapidly expanding "SGOCO Club" retail network.
Gross Margin
The gross margin as a percent of sales was 15.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2010, compared to -0.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2009. The negative gross margin in the second quarter 2009 was primarily attributed to reduced selling prices as the Company sought to clear excess inventories.
Operating Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses amounted to approximately $1.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010, an increase of approximately $0.9 million, or 555.3% compared to $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009. $0.5 million of the increase was due to costs related to professional fees including audit and legal fees associated with being a public company as the Company completed the reverse merger in March 2010.
Provision for Income Taxes
Income tax was $0.66 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010 compared with $0.02 million in income tax benefits during the three months ended June 30, 2009.
Net Income and EPS
Net income for the second quarter of 2010 was $3.8 million, compared to a net loss of $0.4 million recorded for the same period last year. Non-GAAP net income which excludes charges related to warrant derivative liability was $4.4 million, compared to a net loss of $0.4 million a year ago. Diluted EPS was $0.40 in the second quarter of 2010, compared to $(0.05) in the second quarter of 2009. Non-GAAP diluted EPS, which excludes changes in fair value of warrant derivative liability, was $0.46 in the second quarter of 2010, compared to $(0.05) in the second quarter of 2009.
Cash, Restricted Cash and Working Capital
As of June 30, 2010, the Company had cash and restricted cash of $9.8 million and working capital of $17.3 million, compared to $11.4 million and $7.8 million as of December 31, 2009. The Current Ratio was 1.3 as of June 30, 2010 compared to 1.2 as of December 31, 2009.
Our principal source of liquidity has been cash flow generated from operations and borrowing from short-term bank loans. Net cash flow from operating activities for the first half of 2010 was negative $6.7 million. The negative cash flow from operations resulted from the $12.9 million increase in accounts receivable that followed the large sales increase in the second quarter of 2010.
The short-term bank loans represent amounts due to various banks. These borrowings are normally due within one year and typically renewed. Since inception, the Company has faced no difficulties rolling over these loans with lenders. These types of financing arrangements are common practice in China and similar to revolving lines of credit in the United States.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We use non-GAAP adjusted net earnings to measure the performance of our business internally by excluding non-cash charges related to warrants and shared-based compensation. We believe that the non-GAAP adjusted financial measure allows us to focus on managing business operating performance because the measure reflects our essential operating activities and provides a consistent method of comparison to historical periods. We believe that providing the non-GAAP measures that we use internally is useful to investors for a number of reasons. The non-GAAP measure provides a consistent basis for investors to understand our financial performance in comparison to historical periods without variation of non-recurring items and non-operating related charges. The Company believes that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing the Company's performance and when planning and forecasting future periods. Non-GAAP measures are subject to inherent limitations because they do not include all of the expenses included under GAAP and because they involve the exercise of judgment regarding which charges are excluded from the non-GAAP financial measure. However, we compensate for these limitations by providing the relevant disclosure of the items excluded.
The following table provides a non-GAAP financial measure and a reconciliation of that non-GAAP measure to the GAAP net income:
