April 02, 2007

- Company reports 2006 revenue of $26.4 million and net income of $1.4 million - On January 31, 2007 Company completed acquisition of Oceanic Well Profit, Inc. LOS ANGELES, April 2 /Xinhua-PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Home System Group (OTC Bulletin Board: HSYT) based in Guangdong Province, PRC, an International manufacturer and distributor of home appliance products to major global retailers, today announced 2006 financial results. Reported results exclude contribution from the January 2007 acquisition of Holy (H.K.) Limited, a Hong Kong holding company which owns 100 percent of Oceanic Well Profit, Inc., one of China's largest professional BBQ gas grill manufacturers with annual production capacity of $75 million. For the year ended December 31, 2006, revenues were $26.4 million and were generated from the distribution of home appliance products, including BBQ gas grills, home water pumps, blenders, electric fans, heaters, and other electronic and environmentally friendly products made in China and sold through major distributors such as Nexgrill, Pro Steel, Rich Empire and Whalen directly to retailers based in the US, Europe and Australia. Cost of sales for the year were $23.7 million yielding gross profits of $2.7 million and gross margins of 10.1 percent. General and administrative expenses were $1 million, of which $0.7 million was a non-cash charge related to equity compensation for consultants. Operating income for the year totaled $1.7 million with a related operating margin of 6.4 percent. Net income was $1.4 million with earnings per share of $0.08 based on 16.1 million fully diluted shares outstanding. The Company did not incur taxes as revenues were generated outside of Hong Kong. Net cash provided by operating activities for 2006 totaled $2.0 million, which was a result of positive net income, decreased accounts receivable and strong working capital management. Current assets were $7.2 million and the Company maintained a healthy current ratio of 2.1 to 1. Shareholders' equity improved 133.8 percent to $3.8 million. "We made further progress in growing our International business by establishing incremental distribution capabilities in Europe and North America, adding new product lines to broaden our portfolio, while formalizing several new customer relationships. In order to develop a vertically integrated Company and capitalize on the management teams' manufacturing expertise, we have been actively pursuing acquisition opportunities, including companies developing and manufacturing key products complementary to our distribution platform," stated Mr. Li Wei Qiu, CEO and Chairman of Home System Group. "On January 30 2007, the Company completed a crucial first step in this initiative with the acquisition of Oceanic Well Profit, Inc., which is located in Zhongshan City, Guangdong Province, adjacent to Shenzhen. The Company is a leading OEM manufacturer of BBQ gas grills for end customers such as Home Depot which sells the product under its Charm Glow(R) private label. In 2006 Home System generated 15 percent of its revenues from distributing Oceanic Well Profit's product and thus we anticipate this acquisition will significantly enhance overall margins and provide incremental opportunities for pricing power. As a point of reference, over $4 billion in grill sales occur in the United States each year, with approximately 85 percent of households owning a grill." Consideration for the purchase of Oceanic Well Profit included 42.5 million common shares and $3 million in cash. After the acquisition of Oceanic Well Profit, the Company had approximately 62.5 million shares outstanding. The Company commenced operations in April, 2006 and utilizes a state of the art, newly constructed 864,000 square-foot manufacturing facility on 82.5 acres of property. This new facility is equipped with over 500 pieces of advanced production equipment and utilizes a staff of 1,200 employees. Currently, the facility operates five production lines which are interchangeable and can produce 450,000 grills, 3 million water pumps, and 2 million tool and hardware cabinets annually, collectively representing $75 million in total revenue capacity. Additionally, Oceanic Well Profit, Inc. has an extensive research and development team consisting of 278 employees dedicated to product enhancement and development, As part of the Company's new product efforts, Oceanic Well Profit expects to introduce a new line of energy efficient oven range hoods, BBQ grills, water pumps and dishwashers, in addition to new tool and hardware cabinets. Management expects that these new product introductions will complement and enhance its current product offering while further penetrating both international and domestic markets through existing and new customers. "We have identified several additional acquisition opportunities which are attractive from a production and geographic standpoint. The goal is to increase the size and scope of our Company while capitalizing on our ability to significantly increase overall production capacity and monetizing a broader base of significant customers. The new facility we purchased with Ocean Well Profit offers us the flexibility to meaningfully improve our economies of scale and optimize leverage in our business model. The secular trend towards outsourcing manufacturing to China remains strong and we are well positioned to capture a meaningful portion of this large and growing market," Mr. Li Wei Qiu concluded.
