The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("US GAAP"). In the opinion of management, the accompanying balance sheets, and statements of income and other comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity and cash flows include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring items, considered necessary to give a fair presentation of operating results for the periods presented. All material inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Management has included all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary to give a fair presentation of operating results for the periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. The information included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with information included in the 2009 annual report filed on Form 10-K.

The Renminbi (RMB) of the People’s Republic of China has been determined to be the Company’s functional currency. The balance sheets were translated at year end exchange rates. Expenses were translated at moving average exchange rates in effect during the periods. The effects of rate changes on assets and liabilities are recorded as accumulated other comprehensive income.

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

China Valves Technology Inc. is a holding company which conducts its business through its operating subsidiaries. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and the Company’s wholly indirectly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated. The results of companies acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated financial statements from the effective date of acquisition.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the useful lives of fixed assets; the allowance for doubtful accounts; the fair value determination of financial and equity instruments, realizability of inventories; the recoverability of goodwill, intangible asset, land use right, plant and equipment; and accruals for income tax uncertainties and other contingencies. The current economic environment has increased the degree of uncertainty inherent in those estimates and assumptions.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

The Company’s revenue recognition policies are in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles regarding revenue recognition. Sales revenue is recognized when all of the following have occurred: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, (iii) the price is fixed or determinable, and (iv) the ability to collect is reasonably assured. These criteria are generally satisfied at the time of delivery for domestic sales when risk of loss and title passes to the customer. For international sales, the revenue recognition criteria are generally satisfied under Free on Board (“FOB”) terms, in which the Company’s responsibility ends once the goods clear the port of shipment.

The Company recognizes revenue when the goods are delivered and title has passed. Sales revenue represents the invoiced value of goods, net of a value-added tax (“VAT”). All of the Company’s products that are sold in the PRC are subject to a Chinese value-added tax at a rate of 17% of the gross sales price or at a rate approved by the Chinese local government. This VAT may be offset by the VAT paid by the Company on raw materials and other materials included in the cost of producing their finished product.

The Company allows its customers to retain 5% to 10% of the contract prices as retainage during the warranty period, usually 12 or 18 months, to guarantee product quality. Historically, the Company has experienced insignificant warranty claims resulting in the Company having to repair or exchange a defective product. Due to the infrequency and insignificant amount of warranty claims, the ability to collect retainage is reasonably assured and is recognized at the time of shipment.

The Company also provides services to some of its sales agents and distributors. The Company recognizes revenue on these services once a contract is signed and the services have been rendered.

Note 2 – Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

COST OF GOODS SOLD

Cost of goods sold consists primarily of direct material costs, direct labor costs, direct depreciation and related direct expenses attributable to the production of the products. Inbound shipping and handling costs and purchasing are included in direct material costs. Manufacturing overhead includes expenses such as indirect labor, depreciation as it relates to the cost of production, rent, utilities, receiving costs, and equipment maintenance and repairs.

SHIPPING AND HANDLING

Shipping and handling costs incurred for shipping of finished products to customers are included in selling expense and totaled $226,925 and $94,011 for the three months ended September 30, 2010, and 2009, respectively. Shipping and handling costs amounted to $745,919 and $306,650 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

ADVERTISING

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and totaled $47,736 and $24,975 for the three months ended September 30, 2010, and 2009, respectively and $66,411 and $32,819 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION AND OTHER COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

The reporting currency of the Company is the US dollar. The functional currency of the Company and the local currency of its operating subsidiaries is (RMB).

For those entities whose currency is other than the US dollar, all assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date; shareholders’ equity is translated at historical rates and items in the statements of income and of cash flows are translated at the average rate for the period. Because cash flows are translated based on the average translation rate, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported in the statement of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances in the balance sheet. Translation adjustments resulting from this process are included in accumulated other comprehensive income in the statement of shareholders’ equity. Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the results of operations as incurred.

The balance sheet amounts with the exception of equity at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 were translated at 6.68 RMB and 6.79 RMB to $1.00. The average translation rates applied to the statements of operations and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 were 6.80 RMB and 6.82 RMB to $1.00, respectively.

PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

Plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated life of the asset, ranging from five to thirty years.

Construction in progress represents direct costs of construction as well as acquisition and design fees incurred. Capitalization of these costs ceases and the construction in progress is transferred to plant and equipment when substantially all the activities necessary to prepare the assets for their intended use are completed. Interest incurred during construction is capitalized into construction in progress. All other interest is expensed as incurred. No depreciation is provided until construction is completed and the asset is ready for its intended use. Maintenance, repairs and minor renewals are charged directly to expenses as incurred. Major additions and betterments to property and equipment are capitalized.

INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Intangible assets consist of patents, software and land use rights. Patents and software are subject to amortization. Patents are being amortized over 5-17[A1] years as management believes those are the estimated useful life of the patents currently owned by the Company. Land use rights are carried at cost and charged to expense on a straight-line basis over the period the rights are granted, 46.4 - 50 years. Software is amortized over 10 years, its estimated useful life.

GOODWILL

Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquisition over the fair value of the net assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized, but is instead tested for impairment. Goodwill is reviewed for impairment annually in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. The goodwill impairment test is a two-step test. Under the first step, the fair value of the reporting unit is compared with its carrying value (including goodwill). If the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value, an indication of goodwill impairment exists for the reporting unit and the enterprise must perform step two of the impairment test (measurement). Under step two, an impairment loss is recognized for any excess of the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill over the implied fair value of that goodwill. The implied fair value of goodwill is determined by allocating the fair value of the reporting unit in a manner similar to a purchase price allocation and the residual fair value after this allocation is the implied fair value of the reporting unit goodwill. Fair value of the reporting unit is determined using a discounted cash flow analysis. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, step two does not need to be performed. The Company performs its annual impairment review of goodwill every year at December 31 and when a triggering event occurs between annual impairment tests. No impairment loss was recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2010.

Note 2 – Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

LONG-LIVED ASSETS

The Company reviews the carrying amount of its long-lived assets, including intangibles, for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying amount may not be recoverable. An asset is considered impaired when estimated future cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the asset. In the event the carrying amount of such asset is considered not recoverable, the asset is adjusted to its fair value. Fair value is generally determined based on discounted future cash flow. As of September 30, 2010, the Company determined no impairment charges were necessary.

INVENTORIES

The Company values its inventories at the lower of cost or market, determined on a weighted average method, or net realizable value. The Company reviews its inventories periodically to determine if any reserves are necessary for potential obsolescence or if a write down is necessary because the carrying value exceeds net realizable value.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT COSTS

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. The costs of material and equipment that are acquired or constructed for research and development activities and which have alternative future uses, either in research and development, marketing, or sales, are classified as property and equipment and depreciated over their estimated useful lives.

RETIREMENT BENEFIT COSTS

Amounts payable to the PRC state managed retirement benefit programs are expensed in the financial statements following the accrual basis of accounting.

INCOME TAXES

The Company applies the accounting standard regarding accounting for income taxes and the accounting standard regarding accounting for uncertainty in income taxes for income taxes. This accounting standard requires recognition of deferred income tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the income tax basis and financial reporting basis of assets and liabilities. Provision for income taxes consist of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes. The charge for taxation is based on the results for the year as adjusted for items that are non-assessable or disallowed. It is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. Deferred taxes are accounted for using the balance sheet liability method in respect of temporary differences arising from differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax basis used in the computation of assessable tax profit. In principle, deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences, and deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilized.

Under the accounting standard regarding, accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, a tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the “more likely than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded. Penalties and interest incurred related to underpayment of income tax are classified as income tax expense in the year incurred. No significant penalties or interest relating to income taxes have been incurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009. GAAP also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

Cash and cash equivalents comprise of cash in banks and on hand, demand deposits with banks and other financial institutions, and short-term, highly liquid investments which are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value, having been within three months of maturity at acquisition.

RESTRICTED CASH

The Company’s restricted cash consists of cash in the bank as security for its product shipments, notes payable, government required housing fund, and cash held in escrow pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement entered into on August 26, 2008. For restricted cash held in bank, the restriction is released after the customers have received and inspected the products. The Company has notes payable outstanding with various banks and is required to keep certain amounts on deposit that are subject to withdrawal restrictions. Cash held in escrow pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement is released after the Company satisfies certain covenants as stated in the Securities Purchase Agreement. Restricted cash amounted to $ 1,321,429 and $1,047,389 as of September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.

CONCENTRATION RISKS

The Company's operations are carried out in the PRC. Accordingly, the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic and legal environment in the PRC, and by the general state of the PRC's economy. The Company's operations in the PRC are subject to specific considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in North America and Western Europe. The Company's results may be adversely affected by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, restrictions on currency conversion and remittance abroad, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things.

Certain financial instruments may subject the Company to concentration of credit risk. The Company maintains bank deposits within state-owned banks within the PRC, Hong Kong and United States. Balances at financial institutions of state owned banks within the PRC are not covered by insurance. As of September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the Company’s cash and restricted cash balances, totaling $8,053,925 and $14,505,745 respectively at those dates, were not covered by insurance. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant risks on its cash in bank accounts.

Five major suppliers represented approximately 28% and 27% of the Company’s total purchases for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Five major suppliers, including a related party, represented approximately 22% and 18% of the Company’s total purchases for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

The Company does not have customer concentration as no customer represent more than 10% of the Company’s total sales for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The accounting standards regarding disclosures about fair value of financial instruments defines financial instruments and required fair value disclosure of those instruments. This accounting standard defines fair value, establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measures. Receivables, investments, payables, short and long term debt and warrant liabilities qualified as financial instruments. Management believes the carrying amounts of receivables, payables and debt are a reasonable estimate of fair value because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments, their expected realization, and if applicable, their stated interest rate is equivalent to interest rates currently available. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the assets or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instruments.

Level 3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value.

The Company analyzes all financial instruments with features of both liabilities and equity under the accounting standards regarding accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity, accounting for derivative instruments and hedging activities, accounting for derivative financial instruments indexed to, and potentially settled in, a company’s own stock, and the accounting standard regarding determining whether an instrument (or embedded feature) is indexed to an entity’s own stock. The accounting standard specifies that a contract that would otherwise meet the definition of a derivative but is both (a) indexed to the Company’s own stock and (b) classified in stockholders’ equity in the statement of financial position would not be considered a derivative financial instrument. This standard provides a two-step model to be applied in determining whether a financial instrument or an embedded feature is indexed to an issuer’s own stock and thus able to qualify for this accounting standard scope exception. All warrants issued by the Company are denominated in USD; because the Company’s functional currency is the RMB, the Company accounts for these warrants as derivative instrument liabilities and marks them to market each period. Because there is no quoted or observable market price for the warrants, the Company used level 3 inputs for its valuation methodology.

Note 2 – Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

The Company invested in China Perfect Machinery Industry Co., Ltd. in 1996 and Kaifeng Commercial Bank in 1997. There is no quoted or observable market price for these investments; therefore, the Company used level 3 inputs for its valuation methodology. Based on its proportionate share of the underlying book value of the investees, the Company believes the fair value of the investments is at least equal to the original cost. The determination of the fair value was based on the capital investment that the Company contributed. There has been no change in the carrying value since inception, other than the effects of translating the balances to US dollars.

A discussion of the valuation technique used to measure the fair value of the warrant liabilities is provided in Note 13.

    Carrying Value as of     Fair Value Measurements at September 30, 2010

Balance, September 30, 2010 (unaudited) $ 589,348

RECEIVABLES

The Company’s business operations are conducted in the PRC by selling on various credit terms. Management reviews its receivables on a quarterly basis to determine if the allowance for doubtful accounts is adequate. An estimate for doubtful accounts is recorded when collection of the full amount is no longer probable. Known bad debts are written off against the allowance for doubtful accounts when identified. The Company’s existing reserve is consistent with its historical experience and considered adequate by management.

EARNINGS PER SHARE

The Company reports earnings per share in accordance with the provisions of the accounting standard regarding "Earnings per Share." This accounting standard requires presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share in conjunction with the disclosure of the methodology used in computing such earnings per share. Basic earnings per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share takes into account the potential dilution (using the treasury stock method) that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised and converted into common stock.

Common stock equivalents represent the dilutive effect of the assumed exercise of the outstanding stock options and warrants, using the treasury stock method, at either the beginning of the respective period presented or the date of issuance, whichever is later, and only if the common stock equivalents are considered dilutive based upon the Company's net income (loss) position at the calculation date.

OTHER INVESTMENTS

The Company invested in China Perfect Machinery Industry Co., Ltd. in 1996 and Kaifeng Commercial Bank in 1997. The Company owns approximately 0.07% of China Perfect Machinery Industry Co. Ltd. and approximately 0.82% of Kaifeng Commercial Bank. The Company does not have the ability to exercise control over the investee companies and the investments have been recorded under the cost method. These long term investments amounted to $780,149 and $764,515 as of September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.

Note 2 – Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

The Company evaluates potential impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the investments may not be recoverable. For investments carried at cost, the Company recognizes impairment in the event that the carrying value of the investment exceeds the Company’s proportionate share of the net book value of the investee. As of September 30, 2010, management believes no impairment charge is necessary.

CUSTOMER DEPOSITS

Customer deposits represent amounts advanced by customers on product orders. The product normally is shipped within six months after receipt of the advance payment and the related sale is recognized in accordance with the Company’s revenue recognition policy. As of September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, customer deposits amounted to $7,257,010 and $3,325,906, respectively.

STOCK COMPENSATION

The Company applies the accounting standard regarding accounting for stock compensation, which defines a fair-value-based method of accounting for stock based employee compensation and transactions in which an entity issues its equity instruments to acquire goods and services from employees and non-employees. Stock compensation for stock granted to non-employees has been determined in accordance with this accounting standard and the accounting standard regarding accounting for equity instruments that are issued to other than employees for acquiring, or in conjunction with selling goods or services, as the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measured. This accounting standard allows the “simplified” method to determine the term of employee options when other information is not available.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In January 2010, FASB issued ASU No. 2010-02 regarding accounting and reporting for decreases in ownership of a subsidiary. Under this guidance, an entity is required to deconsolidate a subsidiary when the entity ceases to have a controlling financial interest in the subsidiary. Upon deconsolidation of a subsidiary, and entity recognizes a gain or loss on the transaction and measures any retained investment in the subsidiary at fair value. In contrast, an entity is required to account for a decrease in its ownership interest of a subsidiary that does not result in a change of control of the subsidiary as an equity transaction. This ASU clarifies the scope of the decrease in ownership provisions, and expands the disclosures about the deconsolidation of a subsidiary or de-recognition of a group of assets. This ASU is effective for beginning in the first interim or annual reporting period ending on or after December 31, 2009. The Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements In January 2010, FASB issued ASU No. 2010-02 – Accounting and Reporting for Decreases in Ownership of a Subsidiary – a Scope Clarification. The amendments in this Update affect accounting and reporting by an entity that experiences a decrease in ownership in a subsidiary that is a business or nonprofit activity. The amendments also affect accounting and reporting by an entity that exchanges a group of assets that constitutes a business or nonprofit activity for an equity interest in another entity. The amendments in this update are effective beginning in the period that an entity adopts SFAS No. 160, “Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements – An Amendment of ARB No. 51.” If an entity has previously adopted SFAS No. 160 as of the date the amendments in this update are included in the Accounting Standards Codification, the amendments in this update are effective beginning in the first interim or annual reporting period ending on or after December 15, 2009. The amendments in this update should be applied retrospectively to the first period that an entity adopted SFAS No. 160. The Company adopted this standard and the adoption of this standard did not have material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In January 2010, FASB issued ASU No. 2010-06 – Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements. This update provides amendments to Subtopic 820-10 that requires new disclosure as follows: 1) Transfers in and out of Levels 1 and 2. A reporting entity should disclose separately the amounts of significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and describe the reasons for the transfers. 2) Activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. In the reconciliation for fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3), a reporting entity should present separately information about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements (that is, on a gross basis rather than as one net number). This update provides amendments to Subtopic 820-10 that clarify existing disclosures as follows: 1) Level of disaggregation. A reporting entity should provide fair value measurement disclosures for each class of assets and liabilities. A class is often a subset of assets or liabilities within a line item in the statement of financial position. A reporting entity needs to use judgment in determining the appropriate classes of assets and liabilities. 2) Disclosures about inputs and valuation techniques. A reporting entity should provide disclosures about the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. Those disclosures are required for fair value measurements that fall in either Level 2 or Level 3.The new disclosures and clarifications of existing disclosures are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU. However, the Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-09, “Subsequent Events (Topic 855): Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements,” or ASU 2010-09. ASU 2010-09 primarily rescinds the requirement that, for listed companies, financial statements clearly disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. Subsequent events must still be evaluated through the date of financial statement issuance; however, the disclosure requirement has been removed to avoid conflicts with other SEC guidelines. ASU 2010-09 was effective immediately upon issuance and was adopted in February 2010.

Note 2 – Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

In April 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-13, “Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Effect of Denominating the Exercise Price of a Share-Based Payment Award in the Currency of the Market in Which the Underlying Equity Security Trades,” or ASU 2010-13. ASU 2010-13 provides amendments to Topic 718 to clarify that an employee share-based payment award with an exercise price denominated in currency of a market in which a substantial porting of the entity’s equity securities trades should not be considered to contain a condition that is not a market, performance, or service condition. Therefore, an entity would not classify such an award as a liability if it otherwise qualifies as equity. The amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2010. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2010-17 to have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In April 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update 2010-17, “Revenue Recognition—Milestone Method (Topic 605): Milestone Method of Revenue Recognition” or ASU 2010-17. This Update provides guidance on the recognition of revenue under the milestone method, which allows a vendor to adopt an accounting policy to recognize all of the arrangement consideration that is contingent on the achievement of a substantive milestone (milestone consideration) in the period the milestone is achieved. The pronouncement is effective on a prospective basis for milestones achieved in fiscal years and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after June 15, 2010. The adoption of ASU 2010-17 does not have any significant impacts on the consolidated financial statements.

In July 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-20 which amends “Receivables” (Topic 310). ASU 2010-20 is intended to provide additional information to assist financial statement users in assessing an entity’s risk exposures and evaluating the adequacy of its allowance for credit losses. The disclosures as of the end of a reporting period are effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending on or after December 15, 2010. The disclosures about activity that occurs during a reporting period are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2010. The amendments in ASU 2010-20 encourage, but do not require, comparative disclosures for earlier reporting periods that ended before initial adoption. However, an entity should provide comparative disclosures for those reporting periods ending after initial adoption. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2010-20 to have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Reclassifications

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These classifications have no effect on net income. The Company has also reclassified service revenue, in the amount of $80,510 and $476,158 from sales agents, from other income, net to revenue in the statement of operations and other comprehensive income (loss) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, respectively.

WARRANTS

2008 placement agent warrants

At the closing of the 2008 private placement, as part of the compensation to the placement agent, the Company issued warrants to the placement agent to acquire 587,249 shares of common stock. The warrants have a strike price equal to $4.29 and a term of 3 years. The shares underlying the warrants will have registration rights. The warrants contain a standard anti-dilution provision for stock dividends, stock splits, stock combination, recapitalization and a change of control transaction. Because the warrants are denominated in U.S. dollars and the Company’s functional currency is the RMB, they do not meet the requirements of the accounting standard to be indexed only to the Company’s stock. Accordingly, they are accounted for at fair value as derivative liabilities and marked to market each period

The initial value of the warrants was determined using the Cox-Ross-Rubinstein binomial model using the following assumptions: volatility of 75%; risk free interest rate of 2.64%; dividend yield of 0% and expected term of 3 years. The volatility of the Company’s common stock was estimated by management averaging its own volatility and three other comparable companies’ volatility, the risk free interest rate was based on Treasury Constant Maturity Rates published by the U.S. Federal Reserve for periods applicable to the life of the warrants, the dividend yield was based on the Company’s current and expected dividend policy and the expected term is equal to the contractual life of the warrants. The value of the warrants was based on the Company’s common stock price of $3.576 on the date the warrants were issued.

On February 18, 2009, the placement agent, Brean Murray, Carret & Co., LLC performed a cashless exercise of 352,349 warrant shares; which were converted to 201,326 shares of common stock. The Company valued the conversion on exercise date, and recorded $229,673 loss from changes in fair value of derivative. A total of $756,012 of carrying value and derivative liability had been reclassified into equity.

In the month of February, 2010, the placement agent, Rosewood Securities LLC exercised 10,202 warrants shares into 10,202 shares of common stock. The Company valued the conversion on the exercise date, and recorded a $62,233 loss from changes in fair value of derivative. A total of $94,440 of carrying value and derivative liability had been reclassified into equity. These losses were recorded in the Company’s income statement.

On April 7, 2010, another 82,567 warrant shares were exercised into 82,567 shares of common stock. The Company valued the conversion on the exercise date, and recorded a $280,928 loss from changes in fair value of derivative in the income statement. A total of $786,819 of carrying value and derivative liability had been reclassified into equity.

2009 placement agent warrants

At the closing of the 2009 securities purchase, the Company issued short-term 30-day common stock purchase warrants to acquire 50,000 shares of common stock. The warrants have a strike price equal to $9.00 and a term of 30 days. The shares underlying the warrants will have registration rights. The warrants contain a standard anti-dilution provision for stock dividends, stock splits, stock combination, recapitalization and a change of control transaction. Because the warrants are denominated in U.S. dollars and the Company’s functional currency is the Renminbi, they do not meet the requirements of the accounting standard to be indexed only to the Company’s stock. Accordingly, they are accounted for at fair value as derivative liabilities and marked to market each period The initial value of the warrants was determined using the Cox-Ross-Rubinstein binomial model using the following assumptions: volatility 96%; risk free interest rate 0.030%; dividend yield of 0% and expected term of one month. The value of the warrants was based on the Company’s common stock price of $9.140 on the date the warrants were issued. The warrants were valued at $53,560 when they were issued on December 28, 2009. As of December 31, 2009, the estimated fair value of these warrants was $56,484 and a loss of $2,924 was recorded in the Company’s income statement.

On January 19, 2010, the 50,000 warrants shares as described above were exercised at $9.00 into 50,000 shares of common stock. The Company valued the conversion on exercise date, and recorded $56,016 loss from changes in fair value of derivative. A total of $112,500 carrying value and derivative liability had been reclassified into equity. These losses and liability were recorded in the Company’s income statement and balance sheet, respectively.

The warrants contain a standard anti-dilution provision for stock dividends, stock splits, stock combination, recapitalization and a change of control transaction. Because the warrants are denominated in U.S. dollars and the Company’s functional currency is the Renminbi, they do not meet the requirements of the accounting standard to be indexed only to the Company’s stock. Accordingly, they are accounted for at fair value as derivative liabilities and marked to market each period The initial value of the warrants was determined using the Cox-Ross-Rubinstein binomial model using the following assumptions:

Note 13 – Shareholders' equity (continued)

The value of the warrants was based on the Company’s common stock price of $9.39 on the date the warrants were issued. The warrants were valued at $165,296 when they were issued on January 7, 2010.

On February 4, 2010, the expiration date of the warrants shares pursuant to the shares purchase agreement of January 7, 2010, 3,334 shares were not exercised and therefore were expired. A total of $3,801 of carrying value and derivative liability had been reversed.

As of September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, warrant liabilities amount to $589,348 and $1,730,837, respectively. The Company recorded a total gain of $301,871 and $90,491, in the Company’s statements of operations related to the change in fair value of warrants for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

STOCK COMPENSATION

In connection with the Company’s private placement on August 26, 2008, the Company entered into the Make Good Escrow Agreement, under which 12,583,032 shares of the Company’s common stock held by Bin Li, the Company’s major shareholder, were placed in escrow. These shares are the subject of an Earn-In Agreement between Bin Li and Siping Fang as described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements. Bin Li entered into the Make Good Escrow Agreement on behalf of Siping Fang. For each of the calendar years 2008, 2009 and 2010, 4,194,344 shares will be released to the investors or returned to the shareholder, depending on the fulfillment of specified earnings targets. As of September 30, 2010, a total of 8,388,688 shares has been returned to the shareholder upon meeting 2008 and 2009’s earnings target. In 2008, the Company recorded $15.0 million expenses for the release of the escrow shares as the escrow shares were originally thought to be compensatory. However, in January 2010, FASB issued ASU No. 2010-05 – Escrowed Share Arrangements and the Presumption of Compensation. This update codifies EITF Topic D-110, which clarifies overcoming the presumption that for certain shareholders these arrangements represent compensation. Historically, an escrowed share arrangement involving the release of shares to certain shareholders based on performance-related criteria is presumed to be compensatory. When evaluating whether the presumption of compensation has been overcome, substance of the arrangement should be considered, including whether the arrangement was entered into for purposes unrelated to, and not contingent upon, continued employment. If specific facts and circumstances indicate that the arrangement, such as investors request that specific significant shareholders participate in an escrowed share arrangement, which will be released or canceled without regard to continued employment, is in substance an inducement made to facilitate the transaction on behalf of the company, rather than as compensatory, the arrangement should be recognized and measured according to its nature and reflected as a reduction of the proceeds allocated to the newly-issued securities. The Company’s CEO, SiPing Fang’s, escrowed shares, in connection with the 2008 Make Good Escrow agreement, are placed in escrow at request of the investors and without regard to continued employment. Based on the clarification from the ASU, the release of the escrowed shares to SiPing Fang as result of the Company meeting the make good annual income target should not be recorded as compensation expense. Hence, the Company did not record compensation expense for Mr. Fang for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 as it did for the corresponding periods in prior year.

Note 16 – Business combinations

Effective January 1, 2009, the Company adopted the accounting standard regarding business combinations. This standard retains the fundamental requirements that the acquisition method of accounting (which this standard called the purchase method) be used for all business combinations and for an acquirer to be identified for each business combination. This standard requires an acquirer to recognize the assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree at the acquisition date, measured at their fair values as of that date, with limited exceptions. This replaces the old accounting standard’s cost-allocation process, which required the cost of an acquisition to be allocated to the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values. If the fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities is still greater than the consideration transferred, then the acquirer is to recognize a gain for the difference on the acquisition date.

Yangzhou Rock acquisition

Our Company

We develop, manufacture and distribute over 800 models of high quality metal valves for a variety of different industries including the thermal power, water supply, municipal construction, sewage disposal, oil and chemical, metallurgy, heat power, and nuclear power industries. According to the China Valves Industry Association, we are the leader in valve sales for the thermal power and water supply industries. We are located in Kaifeng, Henan Province, China and conduct business throughout China, Southeast Asia, the Middle East and Europe. Our production facility in Kaifeng has an area of approximately 110,000 square meters.

As a result of growth in urbanization and heavy industrialization throughout all of China, the Chinese valve market is expected to increase at an annual rate of more than 30% for the next few years according to the China Valve Industry Association’s research in 2009. We believe that demand for valves will be driven primarily by the energy and water sectors with operations and projects in urban centers. The stimulus package being implemented by the Chinese government in response to the global economic crisis is expected to emphasize basic infrastructure construction projects for water, electricity, sewage treatment, gas and heat in order to ensure continuous economic development and meet the requirement of improving people’s living standard. We believe that these initiatives should generate strong demand for valves and promising business prospects for the valve industry and our company, especially as China’s valve market keeps growing and developing. We intend to focus our efforts on utilizing our tangible and intangible resources to expand and strengthen our products and increase our market share in response to industry demands.

Recent Developments

On October 8, 2010, Mr. Siping Fang resigned as the Chief Executive Officer of China Valves Technology, Inc. (the "Company") effective on October 11, 2010. In connection with the resignation of Mr. Fang, the board of the Company appointed Mr. Jianbao Wang as the Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Fang will continue in his role as Chairman of the Board.

On June 21, 2010, China Fluid Equipment Holdings Limited changed its name to China Valves Technology Holdings Limited.

On April 8, 2010, the Company acquired 100% of the assets of Hanwei Valve, which is the sole producer of the fully-welded ball valve and 24-way rotary valve in China, for a total cash consideration of approximately $19.6 million pursuant to an Asset Transfer Agreement.

On February 3, 2010, China Valves Holdings entered into an asset purchase agreement with Able Delight Investment Limited to purchase all of the assets of Changsha Valve for a cash price of $15.0 million. See Note 16- business combinations for details. In October 2010, Changsha Valve changed its name from Able Delight (Changsha ) Valve Co., Ltd. to China Valves Technology (Changsha) Valve Co., Ltd.

Our Organizational Structure

The following chart reflects our organizational structure for our active subsidiaries as of the date of this Annual Report.


Third quarter Financial Performance Highlights

During the third quarter of 2010, we continued to see strong demand for our products and growth in our revenues. The valve industry continued to expand during the third quarter of 2010 in large part due to Chinese government policies designed to stimulate the economy and improve infrastructure throughout China, and growth in urbanization and industrialization throughout China.

The following are some financial highlights for the third quarter of 2010:

Sales Revenue

Our sales revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2010 amounted to $55.3 million, which is approximately $27.4 million, or 97.8 %, more than that of the same period in 2009, where we had revenue of $28.0 million. The increase was primarily attributable to increased demand for our products fueled by rapid industrialization and governmental capital expenditure on China’s infrastructure. We also made efforts to expand sales in the petrochemical, oil and nuclear areas, while strengthening the current thermal power and hydro-power market for our products. Our revenue also increased as a result of the $23.5 million in revenue contributed from our recently acquired subsidiaries, Yangzhou Rock, Changsha Valve and Hanwei Valve. Our sales from organic growth accounted for 14% of total sales growth while sales from our newly acquired companies accounted for 86% of total sales growth.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales, which consist of raw materials, direct labor and manufacturing overhead expenses, was $30.2 million for the three month period ended September 30, 2010, an increase of $16.0 million, or 112.8%, as compared with $14.2 million for the three month period ended September 30, 2009. Cost of sales as a percentage of total revenues were 54.6% and 50.7% for the three month periods ended on September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The increase was in line with the increase in sales revenues and was also attributable to from higher labor and management costs of those newly acquired entities.

Gross Profit

Gross profit was $25.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010, an increase of $11.3 million or 82.4%, as compared with $13.8 million for the three month period ended September 30, 2009. Our gross profit percentage decreased to 45.4% as compared to 49.3% in 2009. The decrease in gross profit percentage was because the three newly acquired subsidiaries had lower overall gross profit percentage as the products sold by these subsidiaries during the quarter, such as gate valves and ball valves, had lower gross profit than that of the butterfly valves and high pressure valves sold by Zhengdie Valve and Kaifeng Valve. In addition, the higher labor and management costs of the new subsidiaries resulted in higher fixed costs per unit and lower overall gross profit percentage. Furthermore, in the current quarter the Company sold more medium to low pressure valves, which generally have lower selling prices, which also contributed to the decrease in gross profit percentage. The Company is currently standardizing production methodology and techniques at the new subsidiaries’ in order to optimize the new subsidiaries’ production capacity.

Sales and Marketing Expenses

Sales and marketing expenses, which consist primarily of sales commission, advertising and promotion expenses, freight charges and related compensation, were $2.4 million for the three month period ended September 30, 2010, compared with $1.7 million for the period ended September 30, 2009, an increase of $0.7 million or approximately 40.2% due to and increase in sales and related sales commission. Meanwhile, strengthened cost control and continued marketing activities also brought in more sales revenue with relatively lower sales and marketing expenses in the current period. Thus, our selling expense as a percentage of sales decreased in the current period as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year.

General and Administrative Expenses

Our general and administrative expenses, which consist primarily of related salaries and benefits, business development, travel expenses, legal and professional expenses and depreciation, and bad debt expenses, was $3.0 million for the three month period ended September 30, 2010, compared with $1.8 million for the period ended September 30, 2009, an increase of $1.3 million, or approximately 71.6% . The increase was primarily attributable to the newly acquired subsidiaries.

Income from Operations

Income from operations was $19.6 million for the three month period ended September 30, 2010, compared with $6.5 million for the period ended September 30, 2009, an increase of $13.1 million or approximately 202.8% . The increase was primarily attributable to the fact that the Company recorded a stock compensation expense from 2008’s Make Good Escrow Agreement for the period ended June 30, 2009. As described in Note 13 to the Company’s September 30, 2010 consolidated financial statements, in connection with the Company’s private placement on August 26, 2008, the Company entered into the Make Good Escrow Agreement, under which 12,583,032 shares of the Company’s common stock held by Bin Li, the Company’s major shareholder, were placed in escrow. These shares are the subject of an Earn-In Agreement between Bin Li and Siping Fang as described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements. Bin Li entered into the Make Good Escrow Agreement on behalf of Siping Fang. For each of the calendar years 2008, 2009 and 2010, 4,194,344 shares will be released to the investors or returned to the shareholder, depending on the fulfillment of specified earnings targets. In 2008, the Company recorded $15.0 million expenses for the release of the escrow shares as the escrow shares were originally thought to be compensatory. However, in January 2010, FASB issued ASU No. 2010-05 – Escrowed Share Arrangements and the Presumption of Compensation. This update codifies EITF Topic D-110, which clarifies overcoming the presumption that for certain shareholders these arrangements represent compensation. Historically, an escrowed share arrangement involving the release of shares to certain shareholders based on performance-related criteria is presumed to be compensatory. When evaluating whether the presumption of compensation has been overcome, the substance of the arrangement should be considered, including whether the arrangement was entered into for purposes unrelated to, and not contingent upon, continued employment. If specific facts and circumstances indicate that the arrangement, such as investors request that specific significant shareholders participate in an escrowed share arrangement, which will be released or canceled without regard to continued employment, is in substance an inducement made to facilitate the transaction on behalf of the company, rather than as compensatory, the arrangement should be recognized and measured according to its nature and reflected as a reduction of the proceeds allocated to the newly-issued securities. The Company’s Chairman Siping Fang’s escrowed shares in connection with the Make Good Escrow Agreement were placed in escrow at the request of the investors and without regard to continued employment. Based on the clarification from the ASU, the release of the escrowed shares to Siping Fang as result of the Company meeting the make good annual income target should not be recorded as compensation expense. Hence, the Company did not record compensation expense for Mr. Fang for the three months ended September 30, 2010 as it did for the corresponding period in 2009.

Not considering the non-cash stock compensation expense of $3.78 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009, the increase in income from operation is for the three months ended September 30, 2010 is $9.4 million, or 91.2%, as compared to the same period in 2009. The increase was primarily attributable to increase of sales from organic growth as well as sales contributed by the Company’s three new subsidiaries.

Other income

Other income was $0.09 million for the three month period ended September 30, 2010, compared with other expense of $0.30 million for the period ended September 30, 2009. The financial expenses for the three month period ended on September 30, 2010 and 2009 were $0.02 million and $0.01 million, respectively.

Income taxes

We incurred income taxes of $4.1 million for the three month period ended September 30, 2010. This is an increase of $1.6 million, or 65.0%, from the taxes we incurred in the 2009 period, which were $2.5 million. We incurred more taxes in the three months ended September 30, 2010 mostly because of the higher assessable income in the three month period ended on September 30, 2010 compared to 2009.

Results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 as compared with the nine months ended September 30, 2009.

Sales Revenue

Our sales revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 amounted to $131.4 million, which is approximately $60.9 million, or 86.4%, more than that of the same period in 2009, when we had revenue of $70.4 million. The increase was primarily attributable to increased demand for our products fueled by rapid industrialization and governmental capital expenditure on China’s infrastructure. In addition, our innovations on high temperature high pressure power station gate valves and two-way metal sealing butterfly valves, which are popular among our customers, also contributed to sales volume increases as compared to sales in the same period last year. We also made efforts to expand sales in the petrochemical, oil and nuclear areas, while strengthening the current thermal power and hydro-power market for our products. Our success in adding new types of valves, such as large diameter high pressure valves used in power stations, valves for nuclear power plants, and other large governmental water-pipe projects requiring supplies of 3.5 meter and up diameter valves also helped fuel demand for our products and contributed to the sales increase. Our revenue also increased as a result of the $49.3 million in revenue contributed from our recently acquired subsidiaries, Yangzhou Rock, Changsha Valve and Hanwei Valve. Our organic growth contributed 19% of our total sales growth while sales from our newly acquired subsidiaries accounted for 81% of our total sales growth.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales was $69.4 million for the nine month period ended September 30, 2010, an increase of $33.8 million, or 95.1%, as compared with $35.6 million for the nine month period ended September 30, 2009. Cost of sales as a percentage of total revenues was 52.8% and 50.5% for the nine month periods ended on September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, with an increase of approximately 4.7% . The increase in cost of sales was in line with the increase of sales revenues and was also attributable to the increase in management costs for the newly acquired subsidiaries.

Gross Profit

Gross profit was $62.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, an increase of $27.1 million or 80.0%, as compared with $34.9 million for the nine month period ended September 30, 2009. Our gross profit percentage decreased to 47.2% as compared to 49.5% in 2009. The decrease in gross profit percentage was a result of the increase of the cost of sale from the acquisition of the three new subsidiaries as they all have lower gross profit comparing to the old subsidiaries, which are Kaifeng Valve, Zhengdie Valve, and Taide Valve. Three key factors that affect gross profit of new subsidiaries are poorer production management technique, higher labor costs, resulting in higher production costs, less purchase bargaining power resulting in higher raw material costs, and production of valves such as ball valves that generally have lower gross profit margin. The newly acquired subsidiaries were under a different production management style, which may not be as cost efficient as our other subsidiaries’ with more mature and advanced production management methodology and production techniques. Hence, overall gross profit margin decreased. We will continue to streamline our new subsidiaries’ production methodology in order to improve overall productivity.

Sales and Marketing Expenses

Sales and marketing expenses were $6.7 million for the nine month period ended September 30, 2010, compared with $4.7 million for the period ended September 30, 2009, an increase of $2.0 million, or approximately 42.9%, due to the increase in sales. Meanwhile, strengthened cost control and continued marketing activities brought in more sales revenue with relatively lower sales and marketing expenses.

General and Administrative Expenses

Our general and administrative expenses were $9.0 million for the nine month period ended September 30, 2010, compared with $5.5 million for the period ended September 30, 2009, an increase of $3.5 million or approximately 63.8% . The increase was primarily attributable to the newly acquired subsidiaries.

Income from Operations

Income from operations was $46.1 million for the nine month period ended September 30, 2010, compared with $13.4 million for the period ended September 30, 2009, an increase of $32.6 million, or approximately 243.0% . As explained in the income from operations analysis in for the three months ended September 30, 2010, the Company did not record compensation expense for Mr. Fang for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 as it did for the corresponding period in 2009. Excluding the non-cash stock compensation expense of $11.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, the increase of income from operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 was $21.3 million, or 86.4%, as compared to the same period in 2009. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase of sales from organic growth as well as sales contributed by the Company’s three new subsidiaries.

Other income

Other income was $491,000 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2010, compared with income of $337,000 for the period ended September 30, 2009. The financial expenses for the nine month period ended on September 30, 2010 and 2009 were $82,000 and $138,000, respectively.

Income taxes

We incurred income taxes of $10.4 million for the nine month period ended September 30, 2010. This is an increase of $4.0 million, or 63.4%, from the taxes we incurred in the 2009 period, which were $6.4 million. We incurred more taxes in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 mostly because of the higher assessable income in the nine month period ended on September 30, 2010 compared to 2009.

Provision for Income Taxes

United States

We are subject to United States tax at a tax rate of 34%. No provision for US federal income taxes has been made as we had no taxable income in the United States for the reporting period.

33


Hong Kong

China Fluid Equipment was incorporated in Hong Kong and is not subject to income taxes under the current laws of Hong Kong.

PRC

The Company conducts all its operating business through its operating subsidiaries in China. The operating subsidiaries are governed by the income tax laws of the PRC and do not have any deferred tax assets or deferred tax liabilities under the income tax laws of the PRC because there are no temporary differences between financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of existing assets and liabilities.

The Company’s subsidiaries are governed by the Income Tax Law of the People’s Republic of China (PRC) concerning Foreign Investment Enterprises and Foreign Enterprises (“FIEs”) and various local income tax laws (the Income Tax Laws). The unified corporate income tax rate is 25%. Under the Chinese Income Tax Laws, certain industries of FIEs are entitled to receive a two years tax exemption following a three years 50% tax reduction.

The Company’s operating subsidiaries, Kaifeng Valve, Zhengdie Valve Taide Valve, Yangzhou Rock are all subject to an income tax at an effective rate of 25%. Changsha Valve is subject to an income tax at a reduced rate of 12.5% . Changsha Valve is a qualified FIE that is in the last year of a tax benefit period before being subjected to a full 25% tax rate. Hanwei Valve is subject to an income tax rate of 15%.

Net Income

We earned net income of $36.8 million for the nine month period ended September 30, 2010. This is an increase of $29.9 million, or approximately 430.6%, from the period ended September 30, 2009, in which a net income was $6.9 million. This increase was primarily attributable to increased sales.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of September 30, 2010, we had cash and cash equivalents of $8.4 million. The following table sets forth a summary of our cash flows for the periods indicated:

    Nine months Ended   
    September 30,

Cash and cash equivalents at the beginning of period   14,485     16,428  
Cash and cash equivalents at the end of period $ 8,387   $ 16,670  

The Company currently generates its cash flow through operations which it believes will be sufficient to sustain the current level of operations for at least the next twelve months. The decline of cash flow from operations was due to increased trade receivables and inventories from the increase in sales of the old and the new subsidiaries, as well as the expected increase of sales during the fourth quarter of 2010. We continue to work to develop new valves and expand our presence as the leader in the development and manufacture of various valves.

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities was $5.5 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2010, compared with net cash provided by operating activities of $20.1 million in the same period in fiscal year 2009. The change of $14.6 million in operating activities was primarily attributable to an increase in accounts receivable from sales increases of the old subsidiaries as well as the new subsidiaries.

34


Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities increased to $32.7 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2010, compared with $15.4 million in the same period in fiscal year 2009. The net cash used in investing activities during the period ended September 30, 2010 was primarily for acquisition payments.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities was $20.9 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2010, compared with net cash used in finance activities of $4.4 million in the same period in fiscal year 2009. The increase in net cash is attributable to cash from the public offering of securities and the exercise of outstanding warrants.

On December 27, 2009, the Company conducted a registered direct offering and sold a total of 333,334 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $3.0 million. The shares were priced at $9.00 per share. On December 30, 2009, we conducted another registered direct offering of an aggregate of 2,414,113 shares of our common stock at a price of $9.00 per share for gross proceeds of approximately $21.7 million, to several institutional accredited investors. In addition, we issued the investors warrants to purchase 362,116 shares of common stock, in the aggregate, at an exercise price of $9.00 per share, exercisable for 30 days beginning on the date of the initial issuance of the warrants. These warrants have since expired.

The Company received aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $24.7 million from the two registered direct offerings. In addition, the Company received an additional $3.2 million gross from the exercise of warrants issued in such financing. The proceeds of the financing and the warrant exercises have or will be used for working capital and certain identified acquisitions.

As of September 30, 2010, there was no principal outstanding under our credit facilities and lines of credit.

Capital Expenditures

The capital expenditures in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 are set out as below. Our capital expenditures were used primarily for plant construction and purchase of equipment to expand our production capacity. We also acquired additional operating subsidiaries to expand our operations. The table below sets forth the breakdown of our capital expenditures by use for the periods indicated.

Make Good Escrow Agreement

In connection with the Company’s private placement on August 26, 2008, the Company entered into a Make Good Escrow Agreement, under which the 12,583,032 shares of the Company’s common stock held by Bin Li, the Company’s major shareholder, were placed in escrow. Of these shares, 12,150,000 are the subject of the Earn-In Agreement between Bin Li and Siping Fang and Bin Li entered into the Make Good Escrow Agreement on behalf of Siping Fang. For each of the calendar years 2008, 2009 and 2010, 4,194,344 shares will be released to the investors or returned to Bin Li, depending on the fulfillment of specified earnings targets. The specified earnings target for calendar 2008 was net income of $10,500,000, for calendar 2009 the target is net income of $23,000,000 and fully diluted earnings per share of $0.369 and for calendar 2010 the target is net income of $31,000,000 and fully diluted earnings per share of $0.497. On August 14, 2009, the parties to the Make Good Escrow Agreement entered into an amendment pursuant to which for calendar 2009 the target was amended to $21,000,000 and fully diluted earnings per share of $0.668 and for calendar 2010 the target was amended to net income of $34,000,000 and fully diluted earnings per share of $1.082. We have met the specified earnings targets and accordingly, 4,194,344 shares were released from escrow and returned to Bin Li for each of the year ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Other than the contractual obligations and commercial commitments set forth above, we did not have any other long-term debt obligations, capital commitments, purchase obligations or other long-term liabilities as of September 30, 2010.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our consolidated financial information has been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which requires us to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect (1) the reported amounts of our assets and liabilities, (2) the disclosure of our contingent assets and liabilities at the end of each fiscal period and (3) the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during each fiscal period. We continually evaluate these estimates based on our own historical experience, knowledge and assessment of current business and other conditions, our expectations regarding the future based on available information and reasonable assumptions, which together form our basis for making judgments about matters that are not readily apparent from other sources. Since the use of estimates is an integral component of the financial reporting process, our actual results could differ from those estimates. Some of our accounting policies require a higher degree of judgment than others in their application.

When reviewing our financial statements, the following should also be considered: (1) our selection of critical accounting policies, (2) the judgment and other uncertainties affecting the application of those policies, and (3) the sensitivity of reported results to changes in conditions and assumptions. We believe the following accounting policies involve the most significant judgment and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements.

Revenue Recognition

The Company’s revenue recognition policies are in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles regarding revenue recognition. Sales revenue is recognized when all of the following have occurred: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, (iii) the price is fixed or determinable, and (iv) the ability to collect is reasonably assured. These criteria are generally satisfied at the time of delivery for domestic sales when risk of loss and title passes to the customer. For international sales, the revenue recognition criteria are generally satisfied under Free on Board (“FOB”) terms, in which the Company’s responsibility ends once the goods clear the port of shipment.

The Company recognizes revenue when the goods are delivered and title has passed. Sales revenue represents the invoiced value of goods, net of a value-added tax (“VAT”). All of the Company’s products that are sold in the PRC are subject to a Chinese value-added tax at a rate of 17% of the gross sales price or at a rate approved by the Chinese local government. This VAT may be offset by the VAT paid by the Company on raw materials and other materials included in the cost of producing their finished product.

The Company allows its customers to retain 5% to 10% of the contract prices as retainage during the warranty period, usually 12 or 18 months, to guarantee product quality. Historically, the Company has experienced insignificant warranty claims resulting in the Company having to repair or exchange a defective product. Due to the infrequency and insignificant amount of warranty claims, the ability to collect retainage is reasonably assured and is recognized at the time of shipment.

The Company also provides services to some of its sales agents and distributors. The Company recognizes revenue on these services once a contract is signed and the services have been rendered.

Cost of Goods Sold

Cost of goods sold consists primarily of direct material costs, direct labor costs, direct depreciation and related direct expenses attributable to the production of the products. Inbound shipping and handling costs and purchasing are included in direct material costs. Manufacturing overhead includes expenses such as indirect labor, depreciation as it relates to the cost of production, rent, utilities, receiving costs, and equipment maintenance and repairs.

Income Taxes

The Company applies the accounting standard regarding accounting for income taxes and the accounting standard regarding accounting for uncertainty in income taxes for income taxes. This accounting standard requires recognition of deferred income tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the income tax basis and financial reporting basis of assets and liabilities. Provision for income taxes consist of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes. The charge for taxation is based on the results for the year as adjusted for items that are non-assessable or disallowed. It is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. Deferred taxes are accounted for using the balance sheet liability method in respect of temporary differences arising from differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax basis used in the computation of assessable tax profit. In principle, deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences, and deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilized.

Under the accounting standard regarding, accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, a tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the “more likely than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded. Penalties and interest incurred related to underpayment of income tax are classified as income tax expense in the year incurred. No significant penalties or interest relating to income taxes have been incurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009. GAAP also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.

Accounts Receivable and Allowance For Doubtful Accounts

The Company’s business operations are conducted in the PRC. During the normal course of business, the Company extends unsecured credit to its customers by selling on various credit terms. Management reviews its accounts receivable on a quarterly basis to determine if the allowance for doubtful accounts is adequate. An estimate for doubtful accounts is recorded when collection of the balance is no longer probable. The Company’s existing reserve is consistent with its historical experience and considered adequate by the management.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The accounting standards regarding disclosures about fair value of financial instruments defines financial instruments and required fair value disclosure of those instruments. This accounting standard defines fair value, establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measures. Receivables, investments, payables, short and long term debt and warrant liabilities qualified as financial instruments. Management believes the carrying amounts of receivables, payables and debt are a reasonable estimate of fair value because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments, their expected realization, and if applicable, their stated interest rate is equivalent to interest rates currently available. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

37


Level 2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the assets or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instruments.

Level 3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value.

The Company analyzes all financial instruments with features of both liabilities and equity under the accounting standards regarding accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity, accounting for derivative instruments and hedging activities, accounting for derivative financial instruments indexed to, and potentially settled in, a company’s own stock, and the accounting standard regarding determining whether an instrument (or embedded feature) is indexed to an entity’s own stock. The accounting standard specifies that a contract that would otherwise meet the definition of a derivative but is both (a) indexed to the Company’s own stock and (b) classified in stockholders’ equity in the statement of financial position would not be considered a derivative financial instrument. This standard provides a two-step model to be applied in determining whether a financial instrument or an embedded feature is indexed to an issuer’s own stock and thus able to qualify for this accounting standard scope exception. All warrants issued by the Company are denominated in USD; because the Company’s functional currency is the RMB, the Company accounts for these warrants as derivative instrument liabilities and marks them to market each period. Because there is no quoted or observable market price for the warrants the Company used level 3 inputs for its valuation methodology.

The Company invested in China Perfect Machinery Industry Co., Ltd. in 1996 and Kaifeng Commercial Bank in 1997. There is no quoted or observable market price for these investments; therefore, the Company used level 3 inputs for its valuation methodology. Based on its proportionate share of the underlying book value of the investees, the Company believes the fair value of the investments is at least equal to the original cost. The determination of the fair value was based on the capital investment that the Company contributed. There has been no change in the carrying value since inception, other than the effects of translating the balances to US dollars.

Stock Based Compensation

The Company applies the accounting standard regarding accounting for stock-based compensation, which defines a fair-value-based method of accounting for stock based employee compensation and transactions in which an entity issues its equity instruments to acquire goods and services from employees and non-employees. Stock compensation for stock granted to non-employees has been determined in accordance with this accounting standard and the accounting standard regarding accounting for equity instruments that are issued to other than employees for acquiring, or in conjunction with selling goods or services, as the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measured. This accounting standard allows the “simplified” method to determine the term of employee options when other information is not available.

Earnings per Share

The Company reports earnings per share in accordance with the provisions of the accounting standard regarding "Earnings per Share." This accounting standard requires presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share in conjunction with the disclosure of the methodology used in computing such earnings per share. Basic earnings per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share takes into account the potential dilution (using the treasury stock method) that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised and converted into common stock.

Common stock equivalents represent the dilutive effect of the assumed exercise of the outstanding stock options and warrants, using the treasury stock method, at either the beginning of the respective period presented or the date of issuance, whichever is later, and only if the common stock equivalents are considered dilutive based upon the Company's net income (loss) position at the calculation date.

Business Combinations

Effective January 1, 2009, the Company adopted the accounting standard regarding business combinations. This standard retains the fundamental requirements that the acquisition method of accounting (which this standard called the purchase method) be used for all business combinations and for an acquirer to be identified for each business combination. This standard requires an acquirer to recognize the assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree at the acquisition date, measured at their fair values as of that date, with limited exceptions. This replaces the old accounting standard’s cost-allocation process, which required the cost of an acquisition to be allocated to the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2010, FASB issued ASU No. 2010-02 regarding accounting and reporting for decreases in ownership of a subsidiary. Under this guidance, an entity is required to deconsolidate a subsidiary when the entity ceases to have a controlling financial interest in the subsidiary. Upon deconsolidation of a subsidiary, and entity recognizes a gain or loss on the transaction and measures any retained investment in the subsidiary at fair value. In contrast, an entity is required to account for a decrease in its ownership interest of a subsidiary that does not result in a change of control of the subsidiary as an equity transaction. This ASU clarifies the scope of the decrease in ownership provisions, and expands the disclosures about the deconsolidation of a subsidiary or de-recognition of a group of assets. This ASU is effective for beginning in the first interim or annual reporting period ending on or after December 31, 2009. The Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements In January 2010, FASB issued ASU No. 2010-02 – Accounting and Reporting for Decreases in Ownership of a Subsidiary – a Scope Clarification. The amendments in this Update affect accounting and reporting by an entity that experiences a decrease in ownership in a subsidiary that is a business or nonprofit activity. The amendments also affect accounting and reporting by an entity that exchanges a group of assets that constitutes a business or nonprofit activity for an equity interest in another entity. The amendments in this update are effective beginning in the period that an entity adopts SFAS No. 160, “Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements – An Amendment of ARB No. 51.” If an entity has previously adopted SFAS No. 160 as of the date the amendments in this update are included in the Accounting Standards Codification, the amendments in this update are effective beginning in the first interim or annual reporting period ending on or after December 15, 2009. The amendments in this update should be applied retrospectively to the first period that an entity adopted SFAS No. 160. The Company adopted this standard and the adoption of this standard did not have material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In January 2010, FASB issued ASU No. 2010-06 – Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements. This update provides amendments to Subtopic 820-10 that requires new disclosure as follows: 1) Transfers in and out of Levels 1 and 2. A reporting entity should disclose separately the amounts of significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and describe the reasons for the transfers. 2) Activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. In the reconciliation for fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3), a reporting entity should present separately information about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements (that is, on a gross basis rather than as one net number). This update provides amendments to Subtopic 820-10 that clarify existing disclosures as follows: 1) Level of disaggregation. A reporting entity should provide fair value measurement disclosures for each class of assets and liabilities. A class is often a subset of assets or liabilities within a line item in the statement of financial position. A reporting entity needs to use judgment in determining the appropriate classes of assets and liabilities. 2) Disclosures about inputs and valuation techniques. A reporting entity should provide disclosures about the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. Those disclosures are required for fair value measurements that fall in either Level 2 or Level 3.The new disclosures and clarifications of existing disclosures are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU. However, the Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-09, “Subsequent Events (Topic 855): Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements,” or ASU 2010-09. ASU 2010-09 primarily rescinds the requirement that, for listed companies, financial statements clearly disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. Subsequent events must still be evaluated through the date of financial statement issuance; however, the disclosure requirement has been removed to avoid conflicts with other SEC guidelines. ASU 2010-09 was effective immediately upon issuance and was adopted in February 2010.

In April 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-13, “Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Effect of Denominating the Exercise Price of a Share-Based Payment Award in the Currency of the Market in Which the Underlying Equity Security Trades,” or ASU 2010-13. ASU 2010-13 provides amendments to Topic 718 to clarify that an employee share-based payment award with an exercise price denominated in currency of a market in which a substantial porting of the entity’s equity securities trades should not be considered to contain a condition that is not a market, performance, or service condition. Therefore, an entity would not classify such an award as a liability if it otherwise qualifies as equity. The amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2010. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2010-17 to have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.

39


In April 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update 2010-17, “Revenue Recognition—Milestone Method (Topic 605): Milestone Method of Revenue Recognition” or ASU 2010-17. This Update provides guidance on the recognition of revenue under the milestone method, which allows a vendor to adopt an accounting policy to recognize all of the arrangement consideration that is contingent on the achievement of a substantive milestone (milestone consideration) in the period the milestone is achieved. The pronouncement is effective on a prospective basis for milestones achieved in fiscal years and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after June 15, 2010. The adoption of ASU 2010-17 does not have any significant impacts on the consolidated financial statements.

In July 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-20 which amends “Receivables” (Topic 310). ASU 2010-20 is intended to provide additional information to assist financial statement users in assessing an entity’s risk exposures and evaluating the adequacy of its allowance for credit losses. The disclosures as of the end of a reporting period are effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending on or after December 15, 2010. The disclosures about activity that occurs during a reporting period are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2010. The amendments in ASU 2010-20 encourage, but do not require, comparative disclosures for earlier reporting periods that ended before initial adoption. However, an entity should provide comparative disclosures for those reporting periods ending after initial adoption. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2010-20 to have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, Mr. Jianbao Wang and Mr. Renrui Tang, respectively, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports, such as this report, that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, Mr. Wang and Mr. Tang concluded that its disclosure controls and procedures is not effective at the reasonable assurance level as of September 30, 2010.
