The Securities and Exchange Commission encourages companies to disclose forward-looking information so that investors can better understand a company’s future prospects and make informed investment decisions. This report and other written and oral statements that we make from time to time contain such forward-looking statements that set out anticipated results based on management’s plans and assumptions regarding future events or performance. We have tried, wherever possible, to identify such statements by using words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “will” and similar expressions in connection with any discussion of future operating or financial performance. In particular, these include statements relating to future actions, future performance or results of current and anticipated sales efforts, expenses, the outcome of contingencies, such as legal proceedings, and financial results. A list of factors that could cause our actual results of operations and financial condition to differ materially is set forth below, and these factors are discussed in greater detail under Item 1A – “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2012, our subsequent filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and in Item 1A. of this report:

CD INTERNATIONAL ENTERPRISES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31, 2012

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Business and Organization

We are a U.S. based company that sources, produces and distributes industrial products in Asia, Europe, Australia, and the Americas. We also provide business and financial consulting services to public and private American and Chinese businesses. We operate in three identifiable segments, as defined by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 280, “Segment Reporting:” Magnesium, Basic Materials and Consulting. Beginning in 2006 we established our Magnesium and Basic Materials segments which have grown through acquisitions of controlling interests in Chinese private companies. We consolidate these acquisitions as either wholly or majority owned subsidiaries. Through our U.S. based industrial commodities business, established in 2009, we source, finance, manage logistics, and sell industrial commodities from North and South America for ultimate distribution in China.

In our Magnesium segment, currently our largest segment by revenues and assets, we produce, sell and distribute pure magnesium ingots, magnesium powder and magnesium alloy. In our Basic Materials segment, we sell and distribute a variety of products, including iron ore products, non-ferrous metals, recycled materials, and industrial commodities. This segment also includes our zinc ore mining property which has not commenced operations. In our Consulting segment, we provide business and financial consulting services to U.S. public companies that operate primarily in China. The consulting fees we charge vary based upon the scope of the services.

Name change

We changed our name from China Direct Industries, Inc. to CD International Enterprises, Inc. on February 29, 2012 to more accurately reflect our business and operations and our efforts to expand our sourcing, processing, and distribution business in Mexico and South America.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements for CD International Enterprises, Inc. and its subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (the “U.S.”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8-03 of Regulation S-X. We included all adjustments that are necessary for the fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the fiscal year as a whole.

We have defined various periods that are covered in this report as follows:

	-	“fiscal 2013” – October 1, 2012 through September 30, 2013
	-	“fiscal 2012” – October 1, 2011 through September 30, 2012
	-	“fiscal 2011” – October 1, 2010 through September 30, 2011

Going Concern

For the three months ended December 31, 2012, the Company has incurred a net loss of approximately $2.3 million and used cash in operation of $360,502. The Company also has a deficit in working capital of $1.4 million and its cash and cash equivalent and its revenues are not currently sufficient and cannot be projected to cover operating expenses in the coming year. These factors raise substantial doubt as to the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans include attempting to raise funds through debt and equity financings, restructure on-going operations to eliminate inefficiencies and continue to sell assets to raise cash and meet operating needs. Management intends to make every effort to identify and develop sources of funds. There is no assurance that management’s plans will be successful.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31, 2012

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CD International Enterprises, Inc., as well as our wholly owned and controlled majority owned subsidiaries, including those operating outside the United States, and are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. We account for investments in which we exercise significant influence under the equity method of accounting. Non-controlling interest in subsidiaries consists of the equity interest of non-controlling investors in consolidated subsidiaries of CDI China, Inc.

Non-controlling Interests

Non-controlling interests in our subsidiaries are recorded in accordance with the provisions of ASC 810, “Consolidation” and are reported as a component of equity, separate from the parent company’s equity. Purchase or sale of equity interests that do not result in a change of control are accounted for as equity transactions. Results of operations attributable to the non-controlling interests are included in our consolidated results of operations and, upon loss of control, the interest sold, as well as interest retained, if any, will be reported at fair value with any gain or loss recognized in earnings.

Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates in fiscal 2013 and fiscal 2012 include the valuation of investments available-for-sale, the allowance for doubtful accounts receivable, the allowance for obsolete inventory, the fair value of stock-based compensation, the useful life of property, plant and equipment, and assumptions used in assessing impairment of long-term assets and assets held for sale.

We rely on assumptions such as volatility, forfeiture rate, and expected dividend yield when deriving the grant date fair value of share-based compensation. If an equity award is modified, and we expect the service conditions of the original award will be met, we will adjust our assumptions and estimates as of the modification date and compare the old equity award valued at the modification date with the new equity award valued at the modification date to calculate any incremental cost. We then continue to recognize the original grant date fair value plus any incremental cost over the modified service period.

Our estimate for allowance for uncollectible accounts is based on an evaluation of our outstanding accounts receivable, other receivables, and loans receivable including the aging of amounts due, the financial condition of our specific customers and clients, knowledge of our industry segment in Asia, and historical bad debt experience. This evaluation methodology has proven to provide a reasonable estimate of bad debt expense in the past and we intend to continue to employ this approach in our analysis of collectability. However, we are aware that given the current global economic situation, including that of China, meaningful time horizons may change. We intend to enhance our focus on the evaluation of our customers' sustainability and adjust our estimates as may be required.

We group property plant and equipment into similar groups of assets and estimate the useful life of each group of assets; see Note 9 – Property, Plant and Equipment for further information on asset groups and estimated useful lives.

Assumptions and estimates employed in these areas are material to our reported financial condition and results of operations. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, we consider all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The carrying values of these investments approximate their fair value.

Restricted cash, current

Restricted cash is cash not available for immediate use. Depending on when cash is expected to be used, we classify restricted cash as a current (short-term) or non-current (long-term) asset. In cases when restricted cash is expected to be used within one year after the balance sheet date, it is classified as a current asset. However, if restricted cash is not expected to be used within one year after the balance sheet date, it is classified as a non-current asset. As of December 31, 2012 and September 30, 2012 our current restricted cash was $17,588 and $21,954, respectively. Substantially, all of our restricted cash is pledged as collateral for loans.

Concentration of Credit Risks

Financial instruments which potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash, trade accounts receivable and notes receivables. We deposit our cash with high credit quality financial institutions in the United States and PRC. As of December 31, 2012, we had no bank deposits in the United States that exceeded federally insured limits. At December 31, 2012, we had deposits of $3,266,366 in banks in the PRC. In the PRC, there is no equivalent federal deposit insurance as in the United States, so the amounts held in banks in the PRC are not insured. We have not experienced any losses in such bank accounts through December 31, 2012.

At December 31, 2012 and September 30, 2012, bank deposits by geographic area were as follows:

Country	December 31, 2012				September 30, 2012
United States	$	166,591	5	%	$	468,450	14	%
China		3,266,366	95	%		2,969,388	86	%
Total cash and cash equivalents	$	3,432,957	100	%	$	3,437,838	100	%

In an effort to mitigate any potential risk, we periodically evaluate the credit quality of the financial institutions at which we hold deposits, both in the United States and China.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

We adopted the provisions of ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements.” These provisions relate to our financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value and our fair value disclosures related to financial assets and liabilities. ASC Topic 820 defines fair value, expands related disclosure requirements and specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on the nature of the inputs used to develop the fair value measurements. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. There are three levels of inputs to fair value measurements - Level 1, meaning the use of quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets; Level 2, meaning the use of quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active or are directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, meaning the use of unobservable inputs. Observable market data should be used when available.

Most of our financial instruments are carried at fair value, including all of our cash equivalents, accounts and notes receivable, prepayments and other current assets, accounts payable, taxes payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, investments classified as available-for-sale securities and assets held for sale, with unrealized gains or losses recognized as Other Comprehensive Income (OCI), net of tax. We use Level 1 inputs for our fair value measurements whenever there is an active market, with actual quotes, market prices, and observable inputs.

The financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value on a recurring basis at December 31, 2012 are as follows:

Financial assets and liabilities	Fair Value			Level 1			Level 2		Level 3
Marketable equity securities	$	378,158		$	378,158		$	-	$	-

Marketable Securities

Marketable securities that we receive from our clients as compensation are generally restricted for sale under Federal securities laws. Our policy is to liquidate marketable securities received as compensation when market conditions are favorable for sale. Since these marketable securities are often restricted, we are unable to liquidate them until the restriction is removed. We recognize revenue for the common stock we receive as compensation based on the fair value at the time the common stock is granted or at the time service has been rendered and for common stock purchase warrants based on the Black-Scholes valuation model. Pursuant to ASC Topic 320, “Investments –Debt and Equity Securities” our marketable securities have a readily determinable quoted price, such as from NASDAQ, NYSE MKT, the Over the Counter Bulletin Board, and the OTC Markets Group (formerly known as the Pink Sheets) and any unrealized gain or loss is recognized as an element of comprehensive income (loss) based on changes in the fair value of the security as quoted on an exchange or an inter-dealer quotation system. Once liquidated, any realized gain or loss on the sale of marketable securities is reflected in our consolidated statement of operations in the period in which the securities are liquidated.

We perform an analysis of our marketable securities at least on an annual basis to determine if any of these securities have become other than temporarily impaired. If we determine that the decline in fair value is other than temporary we recognize the amount of the impairment as a realized loss into our current period net income (loss). This determination is based on a number of factors, including but not limited to (i) the percentage of the decline, (ii) the severity of the decline in relation to the enterprise/market conditions, and (iii) the duration of the decline.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are reported at net realizable value. We have established an allowance for uncollectible accounts based upon factors pertaining to the credit risks of specific customers and clients, historical trends, aging of the receivable and other information. Delinquent accounts are written off when it is determined that the amounts are uncollectible. There was no allowance for uncollectible accounts at December 31, 2012 and September 30, 2012.

Inventories

Inventories, consisting of raw materials and finished goods, are stated at the lower of cost or market utilizing the weighted average method. Inventories as of December 31, 2012 and September 30, 2012 were $7,876,970 and $5,655,568, respectively. Due to the nature of our business and the short duration of the manufacturing process of our products, there was no material work-in-process inventory at December 31, 2012 and September 30, 2012.

Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets

Prepaid expenses and other current assets consist of (i) prepayments to vendors for merchandise that had not yet been shipped, (ii) other prepaid expenses, (iii) loans receivable and (iv) other receivables. At December 31, 2012 and September 30, 2012, prepaid expenses and other current assets were $7,068,983 and $5,889,331, respectively.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated on a straight line basis over their estimated useful lives of three to forty years and in the second quarter of fiscal 2012, our Magnesium Segment changed from the straight line method to the units of production method of depreciation (see Note 3). Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Significant renewals and improvements are capitalized.

Acquisitions

We account for acquisitions using the purchase method of accounting in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 805, “Business Combinations.” The acquisition method of accounting for acquired businesses requires, among other things, that most assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized at their fair values as of the acquisition date. Also, transaction costs are expensed as incurred. Any excess of the purchase price over the assigned values of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. When we have acquired net assets that do not constitute a business under U.S. GAAP, no goodwill has been recognized.

Advances from Customers and Deferred Revenues

Advances from customers represent (i) prepayments to us for merchandise that had not yet been shipped to customers, and (ii) the fair value of securities received as compensation which will be amortized over the term of the respective consulting agreement. We will recognize these advances as revenues as customers take delivery of the goods or when the services have been rendered, in compliance with our revenue recognition policy. Advances from customers totaled $885,723 and $1,414,608, at December 31, 2012 and September 30, 2012, respectively while deferred revenue totaled $216,667 and $300,708, respectively.

Comprehensive income (loss)

We follow ASC 220, “Comprehensive Income” to recognize the elements of comprehensive income (loss). Comprehensive income (loss) is comprised of net income (loss) and all changes to the statements of stockholders’ equity, except those due to investments by stockholders, changes in paid-in capital and distributions to stockholders. Our comprehensive income (loss) for the three months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 included net income (loss), foreign currency translation adjustments, unrealized gains or losses on marketable securities available-for-sale (non-related and related party), net of income taxes, and unrealized gains or losses on amounts receivable and payable in marketable securities available-for-sale. See Note 14 – Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (loss).

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

In accordance with ASC 360 “Property, Plant, and Equipment”, we periodically review our long-lived assets, including goodwill and other intangible assets, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable. We recognize an impairment loss when the sum of expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. The amount of impairment is measured as the difference between the estimated fair value and the book value of the underlying asset. We recorded impairment charges on property, plant and equipment on two magnesium facilities, and one zinc facility during fiscal 2012.

Assets Held for Sale

Long-lived assets are classified as held for sale when certain criteria are met. These criteria include: management’s commitment to a plan to sell the assets; the availability of the assets for immediate sale in their present condition; an active program to locate buyers and other actions to sell the assets has been initiated; the sale of the assets is probable and their transfer is expected to qualify for recognition as a completed sale within one year; the assets are being marketed at reasonable prices in relation to their fair value; and it is unlikely that significant changes will be made to the plan to sell the assets. We measure long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale at the lower of carrying amount or fair value, less associated costs to sell. At December 31, 2012 and September 30, 2012, we had three subsidiaries held for sale (See Note 19).

Foreign Currency Translation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented in United States dollars. The functional currency of our U.S. operations is the U.S. dollar and the functional currency of our Chinese subsidiaries is the Renminbi (“RMB”), the official currency of the PRC. Equity accounts in the consolidated financial statements are translated into United States dollars from RMB at their historical exchange rates when the capital transactions occurred. Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rates as of the balance sheet date. Income and expenditures are translated at the average exchange rates for the three month periods ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. A summary of the conversion rates for the periods presented is as follows:

	December 31, 2012		September 30, 2012		December 31, 2011
Period end RMB: U.S. dollar exchange rate		6.3011		6.3190		6.3523
Average fiscal-year-to-date RMB: U.S. dollar exchange rate		6.2880		6.3198		6.3535

The RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currency and all foreign exchange transactions must take place through PRC authorized institutions. No representation is made that the RMB amounts could have been, or could be, converted into United States dollars at the rates applied in the translation.

Income Taxes

We account for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” ASC 740 requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities to reflect the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in our financial statements or tax returns. Measurement of the deferred items is based on enacted tax laws. In the event the future consequences of differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of our assets and liabilities result in a deferred tax asset, ASC 740 requires an evaluation of the probability that we will generate sufficient taxable income to be able to realize the future benefits indicated by the deferred tax assets. A valuation allowance related to a deferred tax asset is recorded when it is more likely than not that some or the entire deferred tax asset will not be realized.

We applied the provisions of ASC 740-10-50, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes,” which provides clarification related to the process associated with accounting for uncertain tax positions recognized in our consolidated financial statements. Audit periods remain open for review until the statute of limitations has passed. The completion of review or the expiration of the statute of limitations for a given audit period could result in an adjustment to the Company’s liability for income taxes. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) is currently auditing our consolidated income tax return for 2008, 2010 and 2011. We expect the audits to be completed in fiscal 2013. The IRS has proposed an adjustment to our 2008, 2011 and 2011 taxable income and penalties of approximately $4.6 million (approximately $3.1 million in income tax and $1.5 million in penalties) primarily related to transfer pricing issues pursuant to Internal Revenue Code (“IRC”) section 482. We have retained an independent accounting firm that has conducted an independent transfer pricing study, an evaluation of the tax basis value of marketable securities received for services, and an analysis of the allocation of the related costs and expenses associated with such revenues. As a result of such study and as a result of net operating tax loss carryforwards, we believe that no income tax or penalties will be assessed against us by the IRS and we intend to vigorously defend our position. If we are unable to defend our position, any such adjustment could have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations and financial position and liquidity.

Basic and Diluted Income (Loss) per Share

Under the provisions of ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share,” basic income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the periods presented. Diluted income (loss) per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that would then share in the income of the company, subject to anti-dilution limitations. In order to comply with U.S. GAAP, we use the treasury stock method when computing the diluted income (loss) per share. The number of incremental shares included in diluted income (loss) per share is computed using the average market price of our common stock during the reporting period.

Revenue Recognition

We follow the guidance of ASC 605, “Revenue Recognition,” for revenue recognition. In general, we record revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services have been rendered or product delivery has occurred, the sales price to the customer is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. When our clients’ securities are received for our services, we follow the guidance of ASC 505, “Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees” to measure and recognize our revenue. ASC Topic 505-30-18 instructs that an entity (grantee or provider) may enter into transactions to provide goods or services in exchange for equity instruments. The grantee shall measure the fair value of the equity instruments in these transactions using the stock price and other measurement assumptions as of the earlier of either of the following dates, referred to as the measurement date.

	a.		The date the parties come to a mutual understanding of the terms of the equity-based compensation arrangement and a commitment for performance by the grantee to earn the equity instruments (a performance commitment) is reached; and
	b.		The date at which the grantee’s performance necessary to earn the equity instruments is complete (that is, the vesting date).

Currently, we recognize the revenue from the equity securities received from our clients upon completion of the services performed or as otherwise provided for in our agreements with our clients. We use the grant date as the measurement date in accordance with ASC 605.

Stock-based Compensation

We account for the grant of stock options, warrants and restricted stock awards in accordance with ASC 718, “Compensation-Stock Compensation.” ASC 718 requires companies to recognize in the statement of operations the grant-date fair value of stock options and other equity based compensation. Pursuant to ASC Topic 505-50, for share-based payments to consultants and other third-parties, compensation expense is determined at the “measurement date.” The expense is recognized over the vesting period of the award. Until the measurement date is reached, the total amount of compensation expense remains uncertain. The Company records compensation expense based on the fair value of the award at the reporting date. The awards to consultants and other third-parties are then revalued, or the total compensation is recalculated, based on the then current fair value, at each subsequent reporting date.

Derivative Warrant Liabilities

ASC Subtopic 815-40, “Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity,” requires that entities recognize as derivative liabilities the derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts that are not indexed to an entity’s’ own stock. Pursuant to the provisions of ASC Section 815-40-15, an entity should use a two-step approach to evaluate whether an equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded feature) is indexed to its own stock, including evaluating the instrument’s contingent exercise and settlement provisions. The adoption of ASC Subtopic 815-40 has affected the accounting for (i) certain freestanding warrants that contain exercise price adjustment features and (ii) convertible bonds issued by foreign subsidiaries with a strike price denominated in a foreign currency. In the case of any such warrants and convertible bonds, ASC Subtopic 815-40 provides that such warrants and bonds are to be treated as a liability at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in earnings.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the Company’s consolidated balance as of September 30, 2012 to conform to the current presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported results of operations or retained earnings.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Intangibles – Goodwill and Other

In July 2012, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2012-02, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment. ASU No. 2012-02 simplifies the guidance for testing the decline in the realizable value (impairment) of indefinite-lived intangible assets other than goodwill. ASU No. 2012-02 allows an entity the option of first performing a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of ASU No. 2012-02 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Comprehensive Income

Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-05 amends FASB Codification Topic 220 on comprehensive income (1) to eliminate the current option to present the components of other comprehensive income in the statement of changes in equity, and (2) to require presentation of net income and other comprehensive income (and their respective components) either in a single continuous statement or in two separate but consecutive statements. These amendments do not alter any current recognition or measurement requirements in respect of items of other comprehensive income. The amendments in this Update are to be applied prospectively. For public entities, the amendments are effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. We adopted this guidance in fiscal 2012, as presented in our Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss).

Fair Value Measurements:

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04, “Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRS” to amend the accounting and disclosure requirements on fair value measurements. The new guidance limits the highest-and-best-use measure to nonfinancial assets, permits certain financial assets and liabilities with offsetting positions in market or counterparty credit risks to be measured at a net basis, and provides guidance on the applicability of premiums and discounts. Additionally, the new guidance expands the disclosures on Level 3 inputs by requiring quantitative disclosure of the unobservable inputs and assumptions, as well as a description of the valuation processes and the sensitivity of the fair value to changes in unobservable inputs. Other than requiring additional disclosures, we do not anticipate material impacts on our financial statements upon adoption. This ASU is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. We adopted this guidance in fiscal 2012.

NOTE 3 – CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLE AND METHOD OF DEPRECIATION

In the second quarter of fiscal 2012, we changed our depreciation method applied to our Magnesium Segment production from the straight line method to the units of production method of depreciation.

The straight line method of depreciation for our magnesium segment did not reflect the economics of our magnesium production operations and the proper allocation of cost to the production cycle. The units of production method of depreciation is a preferable accounting method, in accordance with ASC 250-10-45, for fixed assets related to the magnesium production cycle, under which periodic depreciation expenses are calculated based on the actual production as a percentage of the total capacity.

For the three months ended December 31, 2011, the comparative effect of the change in accounting method and its pro forma impact on key components of our statement of operations is described below:

	As reported using the straight-line method		Pro forma results using the units of production method

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

All the securities, including preferred stock, common stock, and common stock purchase warrants, were received from our clients as consulting fees. We categorize the securities as investments in marketable securities available for sale or investments in marketable securities available-for-sale-related parties. These securities (exclusive of preferred stock and common stock purchase warrants) are quoted either in the over the counter market system. Most of the securities are restricted and cannot be readily sold by us absent a registration of those securities under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) or the availability of an exemption from the registration requirements under the Securities Act. Our policy is to liquidate the securities on a regular basis. As these securities are often restricted, we are unable to liquidate them until the restriction is removed. Unrealized gains or losses on marketable securities available-for-sale and on marketable securities available-for-sale-related party are recognized on a periodic basis as an element of comprehensive income based on changes in the fair value of the security. Once liquidated, realized gains or losses on the sale of marketable securities available-for-sale and marketable securities available-for-sale-related party are reflected in our net income for the period in which the security was liquidated.

Our marketable securities available-for-sale are carried at fair value. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. There are three levels of inputs to fair value measurements - Level 1, quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets; Level 2, quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active or are directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, unobservable inputs.

Under the guidance of ASC320, “Investments”, we periodically evaluate our marketable securities to determine whether a decline in their value is other than temporary. Management utilizes criteria such as the magnitude and duration of the decline, in addition to the reasons underlying the decline, to determine whether the loss in value is other than temporary. The term “other-than-temporary” is not intended to indicate that the decline is permanent. It indicates that the prospects for a near term recovery of value are not necessarily favorable, or that there is a lack of evidence to support fair values equal to, or greater than, the carrying value of the investment. Once a decline in value is determined to be other than temporary, the value of the security is reduced and a corresponding impairment charge to earnings is recognized. In this assessment for various securities at September 30, 2012 and 2011, the guidance in ASC 320, “the Investment-Debt and Equity Securities,” is carefully followed. In accordance with Section 325-35-33, when an entity has decided to sell an impaired available-for-sale security and the entity does not expect the fair value of the security to fully recover before the expected time of sale, the security shall be deemed other-than-temporarily impaired in the period in which the decision to sell is made. However, an entity shall recognize an impairment loss when the impairment is deemed other than temporary impairment even if a decision to sell has not been made.

NOTE 6 – ACCOUNTS AND NOTES RECEIVABLE

Accounts and notes receivable include a note receivable obtained in connection with the settlement of a lawsuit we filed seeking repayment of a loan from a former client. Accounts and notes receivable also include available-for-sale securities receivable. These receivables are carried at fair market value. Unrealized gains or loss on these receivables are recognized on a quarterly basis as an element of comprehensive income based on changes in the fair market value of the securities underlying the receivables. At December 31, 2012 and September 30, 2012, the fair value of receivable of marketable securities available-for-sale was $2,119,169 and $2,189,720, respectively. The table below presents the details on the accounts and notes receivable:

NOTE 19 – DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS AND ASSETS HELD FOR SALE

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012, we decided to discontinue operations for the following subsidiaries:

l	Lang Chemical
l	CDI Beijing;
l	CDI Jingkun Zinc;
l	CDI Jixiang Metal; and
l	Baotou Changxin Magnesium

On September 28, 2012, through our wholly-owned subsidiary CDI China, we sold our 51% interest in Lang Chemical pursuant to the terms of an Equity Transfer Agreement by and among CDI China, Black Stone Chemical Limited, Lang Chemical and Qian Zhu and Jingdong Chen, the minority owners of Lang Chemical. Under the terms of the Equity Transfer Agreement, Black Stone Chemical Limited purchased 2% of CDI China’s interest and Mr. Chen and Ms. Zhu, his wife, purchased the remaining 49% interest for an aggregate purchase price of $1,221,532. Of this amount $600,000 was tendered at closing and the balance is payable over one year at an annual interest rate of 6% , which has been included in prepaid expenses and other current assets. See Note 8.

On October 8, 2012, through our subsidiary CDI Shanghai, we sold our 51% interest in CDI Beijing pursuant to the terms of an Equity Transfer Agreement by and among CDI Shanghai, CDI Beijing and Mr. Chi Chen and Mrs. Huijuan Chen. Mr. Chen served as vice president of our basic materials segment and is a minority owner of CDI Beijing. We acquired our stake in CDI Beijing in 2008 for approximately $1.5 million. Under the terms of the Equity Transfer Agreement, Mr. Chen acquired our 51% interest in CDI Beijing for an aggregate purchase price of RMB 10,200,000, or approximately $1,614,000. The purchase price is payable in five installments from September 30, 2012 to September 30, 2016, with 9% per annum interest accruing on the residual payments beginning on October 1, 2012 and payable on the final installment. The initial payment would be made up of approximately $80,000 in cash and by tendering the value of residential real estate property that Mr. Chen is in the process of transferring to us. We expect to receive the title to the property in the second quarter of fiscal 2013. The real estate value of the property conveyed by Mr. Chen to us will also be offset with management fees of approximately $194,000 CDI Beijing owed to us. Subsequent payments of $317,000 are due on each of September 30, 2013, 2014 and 2015, with the final installment due on September 30, 2016 which would include the balance of total purchase price and all accrued interest. The amounts receivable has been included in prepaid expenses and other current assets (see note 8).

CDI Jingkun Zinc, located in Hunan Province of China, sells and distributes zinc concentrate to local zinc and zinc alloy refining factories. We established this subsidiary in October 2007 through CDI Shanghai Management. CDI Jingkun Zinc has been inactive since 2007due to poor market conditions. In September 2012, we decided to sell all of our ownership interest of CDI Jingkun Zinc and reclassified assets and liabilities associated with this subsidiary as assets held for sale and liabilities related to assets held for sale.

CDI Jixiang Metal, located in Yongshun County of Hunan Province, manufactures lead and zinc oxide products and distributes zinc and lead concentrate. CDI Jixiang Metal owns the mining rights to approximately 51 acres located in the Yongshun Kaxi Lake Mining area which hold both zinc and lead ores. The mining rights were obtained in 2004 from the Ministry of Land and Resources and allows for the mining of an aggregate of 10,000 metric tons of zinc and lead annually. CDI Jixiang Metal has been inactive since 2007due to poor market conditions. In September 2012, we decided to sell all of our ownership interest of CDI Jixiang Metal and reclassified assets and liabilities associated with this subsidiary as assets held for sale and liabilities related to assets held for sale.

For the three months ended December 31, 2011, the results of operations from CDI Beijing and Lang Chemical were included in our consolidated statements of operations as a discontinued operation, while their assets, liabilities and equity were not reflected on our consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2012 as they were sold prior to September 30, 2012.

The results of operations from CDI Jingkun Zinc, CDI Jixiang Metal and Baotou Changxing Magnesium were included in our consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 as a line item under loss from discontinued operations. The asset and liabilities associated with the three discontinued operations were reflected as current assets or liabilities held for sale in our balance sheets.

NOTE 20 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Income Tax Matters

The IRS is currently auditing our consolidated income tax return for 2008, 2010 and 2011. We expect the audits to be completed in fiscal 2013. The IRS has proposed an adjustment to our 2008, 2011 and 2011 taxable income and penalties of approximately $4.6 million (approximately $3.1 million in income tax and $1.5 million in penalties) primarily related to transfer pricing issues pursuant to IRC section 482. We have retained an independent accounting firm that has conducted an independent transfer pricing study, an evaluation of the tax basis value of marketable securities received for services, and an analysis of the allocation of the related costs and expenses associated with such revenues. As a result of such study and as a result of net operating tax loss carryforwards, we believe that no income tax or penalties will be accessed against us by the IRS and we intend to vigorously defend our position. If we are unable to defend our position, any such adjustment could have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations and financial position and liquidity.

Legal Contingencies

Our wholly owned subsidiary CDII Trading and our company are involved in the following litigation with Sunskar, Ltd. and its agents (“Sunskar”):

Sunskar filed a petition, as amended, to compel our company and CDII Trading to arbitration in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §1, et seq. and New York Convention, 9 U.S.C. §201, et. seq. in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York (Case No. 11CV2499) (the “New York District Court Litigation”). The petition alleges that CD International and CDII Trading breached an agreement for the charter of a vessel owned by Sunskar and seeks damages in excess of $1,000,000 as a result of our alleged breach of the agreement. On November 3, 2011, the Court issued an order granting Sunskar’s petition to compel arbitration against CDII Trading, denied the petition to compel arbitration against CD International and stayed the federal court action pending completion of the arbitration.

A maritime arbitration proceeding was brought by Sunskar against CDII Trading in New York, New York under the Maritime Arbitration Rules seeking an award of Sunskar’s attorney’s fees and costs incurred in the New York District Court Litigation of $67,845 and damages and attorney’s fees and arbitration costs of $1,077,308 (the “Arbitration Claim”). On February 8, 2012, the panel in the arbitration proceeding found that Sunskar had presented a prima facie case of repudiation of contract and its entitlement to damages against CDII Trading. The panel noted Sunskar’s claim for damages, interest, fees and costs exceeds $1 million and directed CDII Trading to post security in the amount of $850,000 in a form reasonably acceptable to Sunskar no later than March 9, 2012 as a source of funds in the event Sunskar is successful on the merits.

On March 8, 2012, CDII Trading and Alex Friedberg filed an action against David Christian Wold, Sunskar and Skaarup Shipping Corporation in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida (Case No.12-60547-CIV-DIMITROULEAS/SNOW) alleging that they made fraudulent and negligent misrepresentations to CDII Trading and Friedberg in regards to the charter of a vessel owned by Sunskar. On May 23, 2012 the District Court entered an order approving CDII Trading’s notice of voluntary dismissal without prejudice in this case and on August 9, 2012 the District Court granted the defendants motion to dismiss the case as to Mr. Friedberg’s claims. The Court retained jurisdiction to entertain a motion for sanctions.

On March 9, 2012, CDII Trading filed a voluntary petition in the United States Bankruptcy Court in the Southern District of Florida (the “Bankruptcy Court”) for relief under Chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) in the case In re CDII Trading, Inc., Case No. 12-15810 JKO (the “Bankruptcy Case”). CDII Trading’s filing of its voluntary petition operated as a stay of the continuation of the New York District Court Litigation and the Arbitration Claim. On April 11, 2012 the Chapter 11 bankruptcy case was converted to a case under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code.

On September 24, 2012 the Bankruptcy Court entered an order (the “Order Approving Settlement Agreement”) approving a June 10, 2012 settlement agreement, as amended on August 23, 2012 (collectively, the “Settlement Agreement”) among CD International Enterprises, Inc. and its subsidiaries, CDI China, Inc., China Direct Investments, Inc., and International Magnesium Group, Inc. (collectively, the “CD Affiliates”) and Sonya Salkin, the Trustee on behalf of CDII Trading in the Bankruptcy Case. Under the terms of the Settlement Agreement, the CD Affiliates, jointly and severally, purchased all of the assets of CDII Trading which included all contractual rights to purchase iron ore and any surplus property in the estate after a final determination and payment of creditor claims. The CD Affiliates also retained all their rights to object and contest the claims filed in the Bankruptcy Case, including the claims of Sunskar, Ltd. and Trafigura Beheer, N.V. The Settlement Agreement also provides for a release of all claims of the Trustee regarding the Bankruptcy Case against the CD Affiliates. In exchange for these rights, the CD Affiliates agreed to pay the estate in Bankruptcy Case $1,200,000, of which, $787,500 has been paid and a balance of $412,500 is payable in monthly installments of $45,833.33 until paid. Should the CD affiliates be successful in any efforts to object and contest any of the claims, currently totaling $1.34 million, any monies remaining in the estate after payment of claims and administrative costs shall be returned to the CD Affiliates. There can be no assurance, however, that the CD Affiliates will be successful in their efforts to object to these claims. In the event the CD Affiliates fail to make any payment due or default under any term or condition under the Settlement Agreement, subject to a cure period, the Trustee is entitled to a judgment of $3,243,000 against the CD Affiliates, jointly and severally.

In addition, on October 9, 2012, the Bankruptcy Court entered a temporary bar order (the “Temporary Bar Order”) that, subject to certain exclusions provided for in the order, prohibits any person from taking any legal action against the CD Affiliates for all matters arising out of any involvement of the CD Affiliates in transactions, acts, or events in any manner related to CDII Trading or its bankruptcy estate including those actions in the nature of alter ego or “veil piercing” which belong to the Trustee. The Temporary Bar Order remains in effect until (i) an uncured default by the CD Affiliates under the Settlement Agreement, (ii) the final adjudication of Sunskar’s claim, or (iii) a subsequent order of the Bankruptcy Court, whichever occurs first.

In October 2012, Sunskar filed a Notice of Appeal of the Order Approving Settlement Agreement and the Temporary Bar Order.

Other than as described above, we believe there are currently no litigation or legal or administrative proceedings pending against us that are likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on our business or our results of operations and, to our knowledge, none of our officers, directors or principal shareholders are party to any legal proceeding in which they have an interest adverse to us.

ITEM 2.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION.

The following discussion and analysis of our consolidated financial condition and results of operations for the three months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and other information presented in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2012 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 31, 2012 and with the consolidated financial statements and other information presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

OVERVIEW OF OUR OPERATIONS

Our Business

We are a U.S. company that manages a portfolio of entities in China and the Americas. We also provide business and financial consulting services to public and private American and Chinese businesses. We operate in three identifiable segments: Magnesium, Basic Materials, and Consulting.

Historically, our Magnesium segment has represented our largest segment by assets and revenues. We manufacture and sell pure magnesium and related by-products sourced and produced in China. We also purchase and resell magnesium products sourced and produced in China by third parties. Magnesium is the lightest and strongest of the structural metals; it is one fourth the weight of steel, two fifths the weight of titanium and two thirds the weight of aluminum. Magnesium is used in a variety of markets and applications due to the physical and mechanical properties of the element and its alloys. Magnesium ingots are the feedstock for the manufacturing process of titanium and aluminum alloying. Magnesium powder and granules are used as a desulphurizer that removes sulfur in the production process of steel. Additionally, various types of magnesium alloys which are produced from the pure magnesium ingots are used in aircraft, automobile parts, and in electronic equipment such as computers, cameras and cellular phones. As described elsewhere herein, in February 2012, we completed the acquisition of 100% of Golden Trust and 80% of Lingshi Magnesium. Golden Trust and Lingshi Magnesium are both engaged in the production of pure magnesium ingots. We have added approximately 20,000 metric tons of annual production capacity from Golden Trust and approximately 12,000 metric tons of annual production capacity from Lingshi Magnesium, bringing our total magnesium production capacity to approximately 90,000 metric tons. Additionally, and as discussed elsewhere herein, in September 2012 we impaired two magnesium facilities, Baotou Changxin Magnesium and Chang Magnesium due to continuous operating stoppages resulting from high cost of production and poor market economic conditions.

Our Basic Materials segment engages in the global purchase and sale of industrial commodities in the Americas which includes mineral ores and non-ferrous metals. As described elsewhere in this report, in September 2012 we sold our majority interest in Lang Chemical and in October 2012 we sold our interest in CDI Beijing. While revenues in prior periods from CDI Beijing were not material to our operations, Lang Chemical’s assets represented substantially all of the assets in this segment. This disposition is consistent with our strategy to streamline our investment and assets in China committed to this segment due to poor performance over the past fiscal year and realign our investments to our industrial commodities business in the Americas to maximize our profits and cash flow in fiscal 2013 and beyond.

Our Consulting segment provides services to public and private American and Chinese entities seeking access to the U.S. and Chinese capital markets. These services include general business consulting, Chinese regulatory advice, translation services, formation of entities in the PRC, coordination of professional resources, mergers and acquisitions, strategic alliances and partnerships, advice on effective means of accessing U.S. capital markets, coordination of Sarbanes-Oxley compliance, and corporate asset evaluations.

OUR OUTLOOK

A significant portion of our business and operations are in China and, accordingly, its national economy plays a significant role in our results of operations. China’s gross domestic product growth (GDP) rate slowed to approximately 7.4% in the third quarter of calendar year 2012, down from 7.6% in the second calendar quarter of 2012, and down from 8.1% in the first quarter, as compared to the same period in calendar 2011, which is the lowest rate since the second calendar quarter of 2009 as the European debt crisis and weaker demand has put the global economic recovery in jeopardy and pushed China’s export-driven manufacturing activities to its lowest levels in the past three years. The 7.4% GDP growth in the third calendar quarter of 2012 reflected a combination of weak demand from abroad, weak domestic investment, and insufficient spending by China's households. Furthermore, China’s housing market and particularly its real estate construction market experienced a significant correction due to a tighter regulatory environment, bank lending curbs, and slower demand during fiscal 2012. In response to this slowdown, China’s Central Bank cut the nation’s commercial banks’ reserve requirement ratio by 0.5 percentage point, the first such cut since December 2008, and in June 2012 cut the interest rate twice, in order to provide additional liquidity for commercial lending. This represents a significant shift in China’s economic policy signaling that China has put economic growth at the top of its agenda, rather than concerns about inflation.

China's import fell 2.6% year-on-year in August 2012 while exports grew a lackluster 2.7% over the same period. The poor export growth reading in August of 2012 confirmed the weakness of the export sector in China's economy. Profits at China's major industrial enterprises fell more steeply in August 2012, extending the decline into a fifth straight month as earnings were dragged down by the continued slowdown in economic growth and rising labor costs.

During fiscal 2012 and continuing into the first quarter of fiscal 2013 the overall economic environment, particularly in China, showed no improvement, and our Basic Materials segment continued to struggle with slower customer demand due to tightened credit conditions in China impacting customer financing needs to purchase our products. We face a number of challenges in continuing the growth of our business, which is primarily tied to the overall health of the global economy. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012, we took certain steps in an effect to realign our investments, and streamline and restructure our operations in China, in our Basic Materials segment, as we shift our business and strategic focus in the Basic Materials segment to the expansion of our industrial commodities sourcing and distribution business in the Americas. As discussed above, we sold our 51% interest in Lang Chemical for $1.2 million in late September 2012 and in October 2012 we also sold our 51% interest in CDI Beijing for $1.6 million as part of our streamline steps and restructuring strategy to redirect our investments to our industrial commodities in the Americas so as to maximize our profits and cash flow during fiscal 2013 and beyond.

Information On Trends Impacting Our Reporting Segments Follows:

Magnesium segment.

According to the International Magnesium Association (IMA), an industry trade group, from January 2012 to July 2012 (most recent available data) China’s domestic magnesium exports totaled approximately 228,000 metric tons, down12.2% compared to the same period in 2011. Furthermore, according to statistics by the General Administration of Customs in China, as published by China Minor Metals, China's export of magnesium products fell by approximately 31,000 metric tons in May of 2012, down 9.6% on a year to year basis. The May figure was 10.6% lower than the volume in April 2012 and was the third consecutive month to see a decline. In recent months, particularly in the months of October 2012and November 2012, we have seen some improvement in the export growth as China continues to emerge from its economic slowdown during the past year.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2013, our Magnesium segment produced, sold or distributed approximately 5,734 metric tons of magnesium products, including 242 metric tons of magnesium powder, generating revenues of $16.57 million. During the first quarter of fiscal 2012, our Magnesium segment produced, sold or distributed approximately 6,345 metric tons of magnesium products, including 347 metric tons of magnesium powder, generating revenues of $17.98 million.

Our average magnesium sales price over the first quarter of fiscal 2013 was approximately $2,720 per metric ton, compared to an average magnesium sales price of approximately $2,833 per metric ton for the first quarter of fiscal 2012. Magnesium prices incrementally improved over the course of fiscal 2011 reflecting an improved worldwide demand pattern during the first three quarters of calendar 2011, characterized by a gradual increase in prices driven by an increased demand from the global aerospace, automotive and consumer electronics sectors. This was followed by a softening in overall demand beginning in October 2011, which has continued through the first quarter of fiscal 2013, mostly due to renewed concerns over the European debt crisis, tightening credit availability in China forcing domestic competitors to liquidate inventory to raise cash balances and a general slowdown in China manufacturing activities. As a result, we built additional inventory during the first quarter of 2013 in anticipation of an improvement demand in in later quaters of 2013.

Based on the current trends and quoting activities, and indications from the economic activities worldwide, we believe that magnesium demand and prices will begin to increase progressively in 2013. We believe that the removal of the 10% export tax on magnesium by Chinese government effective January 1,2013 will also have a positive impact on demand, prices and gross margins in the coming quarters and as a result of that belief we have increased our inventory levels as well as pre-paid expenses in anticipation of an improving enviroment for magnesium. Further, we believe that the long term industry trends for magnesium are favorable and will allow us to rapidly ramp up our production to capitalize on expected growth during the balance of fiscal 2013. We intend to continue with our strategic plan to further streamline and consolidate our own production capacity subject to the availability of additional capital.

Basic Materials Segment.

As a result of the substantial economic slowdown and lack of new sales in the domestic market in China for our specialty chemicals and steel related products, we disposed of the two main subsidiaries in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012, and have further realigned our capital investment in these businesses toward our industrial commodities and distribution business in the Americas in an effort to permit us to maximize our revenues, gross profit, and cash flow in this segment in fiscal 2013 and in future years. For the three months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, we reflected the operations of Lang Chemical and CDI Beijing as a discontinued operation.

As previously disclosed, in fiscal 2012, we experienced delays in completing a shipment out of Mexico due to a longer than expected timeframe to receive environmental permits needed to process the iron ore to meet our customer’s specifications and necessary export approvals. During the second quarter of fiscal 2012, we applied for and received the required environmental permits to process iron ore. However, we do not expect to receive the necessary approval from the Mexican government to export products out of Mexico in the near future and our revenues for the three months ended December 31, 2012 were generated within Mexico. Our operations in Chile experienced shipping delays due to a longer than expected timeframe to receive port authority approval to export the iron ore. During the third quarter of fiscal 2012 we also worked to establish new relationships with suppliers/exporters. One of our suppliers/exporters received port authority approval for shipment during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012 and we expect to begin revenue generation during fiscal 2013. In Bolivia, we established new relationships with a supplier and are working with an engineering specialist to further strengthen our sourcing capabilities and a logistics provider to meet our inland transportation needs.

Consulting Segment.

Our Consulting segment revenues primarily consist of consulting and advisory service fees we received from certain publicly traded U.S. companies with their primary business operations located in the PRC. We receive a fixed number of shares of their marketable securities or fees from those client companies, including both recurring and one-time transaction fees for services provided to clients. Consulting segment revenues vary from period to period depending upon the timing, nature and scope of services we provide to a particular client. We believe demand for our consulting services will improve in fiscal 2013. In fiscal 2013, we will continue our marketing initiative for our One-Stop China Value™ program in an effort to capitalize on the current environment. This program is designed to implement a broad range of strategies to enhance and maximize shareholder value for China-based U.S. public companies. Other marketing plans include sponsoring trade symposiums, investment forums, and forming strategic alliances with industry and trade associations.

GOING CONCERN

Our financial statements have been prepared assuming we will continue as a going concern. The report of our independent registered accounting firm on our financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2012 contained a qualification as to our ability to continue as a going concern. For three months ended December 31, 2012, we reported a net loss of approximately $2.3 million and cash used in operating activities of $360,502, respectively. At December 31, 2012 we had a working capital deficit of $1,361,743 and our revenues for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 declined approximately 28% from the comparable period in fiscal 2012.. These, among other issues, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Presentation of discontinued operations

As described elsewhere in this report, during the fourth quarter of 2012 we sold our interests in Lang Chemical and CDI Beijing and discontinued the operations of CDI Jingkun Zinc and CDI Jixiang Metal, all of which were part of our Basic Materials segment. In addition, in the fourth quarter of 2012, we discontinued the operations of Baotou Changxin Magnesium which was part of our Magnesium segment and also took an impairment charge for Chang Magnesium. The results of operations of each of these entities, and all related costs of revenues and operating expenses, for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 and the first quarter of fiscal 2012 are included in discontinued operations appearing on consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) appearing later in this report. As a result, all data presented below is after adjustment for discontinued operations on a comparative basis shown separately in our statement of operations.

Consolidated Revenues

Revenues in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 decreased by 27.5%, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012, primarily due to a decrease of 96.4% in revenues from the Consulting segment due to the lack of new clients, and 7.8% decrease in revenues from our Magnesium segment.

Revenues by Segment

Our Magnesium segment sold and distributed approximately 5,734 metric tons of magnesium, including 242 metric tons of magnesium powder, generating revenues of $16.57 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 (included revenue – related party of $(5,439), as compared to 6,345 metric tons, including 347 metric tons of magnesium powder, for revenues of $17.98 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2012 (including revenue – related party of $547,431), after adjustment for discontinued operations on a comparative basis shown separately in our statement of operations. The average selling price of our magnesium for ingot and powder sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2013, excluding processing fees decreased by 14.4% and volume decreased by 10% resulting in lower revenues for the first quarter of fiscal 2013. The decrease in the average selling price was due to market conditions. Included in the $16.57 million of magnesium segment revenues for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 was approximately $0.97 million in processing fees which is a new source of revenue for the Magnesium segment. During the first quarter of fiscal 2013, our related revenue was $(5.439) was related to an adjustment to revenue that was previously recorded in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012. We did not have any addition revenue to related party in the first quarter of 2013 to offset this adjustment.

Our Basic Materials segment generated approximately $23,000 in revenues in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 as compared to zero for the first quarter fiscal 2012 and was related to the sale of iron ore within Mexico.

Our Consulting segment revenues primarily consist of consulting and advisory service fees we received from certain publicly traded U.S. companies with their primary business operations located in the PRC. We receive a fixed number of shares of their marketable securities or fees from those client companies, including both recurring and one-time transaction fees for services provided to clients. Consulting segment revenues vary from period to period depending upon the timing, nature and scope of services we provide to a particular client. Our Consulting segment generated $0.19 million in revenues during the first quarter of fiscal 2013, as compared to $5.17 million in the first quarter fiscal 2012, primarily due to lack of new clients. During the first quarter of fiscal 2012, we received marketable securities for services provided to one new client which accounted for 86% of out consulting segment revenue.

Consolidated Gross Profit

Our consolidated gross profit in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 decreased by 99.0% as compared to the first quarter fiscal 2012. Our consolidated gross profit margin decreased to 0% in the first quarter of fiscal 2013, as compared to 23% in the same period of 2012. The decrease in gross profit was primarily due to decrease in the average selling price of our magnesium for ingot and powder sales as discussed above and an approximately 3% increase in our average costs. Additionally, we had a 100% decrease in gross profit from our Consulting segment.

Gross Profit by Segment

Gross profit in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 for our Magnesium segment decreased by $75,000, or 52.6%, compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012, with a gross profit margin of 0.4% as compared to 0.8% in the first quarter fiscal 2012. The decrease in gross profit for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 was primarily due to a decrease in sales revenues of 7.8%, and a 7.5% increase in cost of revenues.

Our gross profit in our Basic Materials segment for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 was $20,000 as compared to none profit for the first quarter of fiscal 2012.

Gross profit (loss) in our Consulting segment for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 was $(35,000) as compared to $5.08 million with a margin of 98.3% for the first quarter of fiscal 2012. The 2013 period gross loss was attributable to a lack of revenue to offset costs incurred.

Total Operating Expenses

Total operating expenses, net of other operating income, decreased by $0.46 million, or 18%, in the first quarter of fiscal 2013, as compared to the comparable period in 2012. The decrease was primarily due to implementation of general and administrative expenses cost cutting measures in our Consulting segment which decreased by $0.87 million, or 51%. This decrease was offset an increase in operating expense in our Magnesium segment by $0.45 million, or 61.1% as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012.

- 34 -

Operating Expenses by Segment

Operating expenses in our Magnesium segment during the first quarter of fiscal 2013 increased primarily due to the higher selling, general and administrative expenses resulting from the additions of the costs associated with Golden Trust and Lingshi Magnesium, as well as higher employee benefit expenses.

Operating expenses in our Basic Materials segment for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 decreased 24.5% as compared to the first quarter fiscal 2012, primarily due to a $0.11 million decrease in operational fees and a decrease in travel expenses incurred in serving our clients based for South America,

For the first quarter of fiscal 2013, operating expenses in our Consulting segment decreased 51% as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012 primarily due to implementation of general and administrative expenses cost cutting measures. During the first quarter of fiscal 2013, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012, we had a decrease in compensation expense to employees and directors fees of approximately $398,000, a decrease in accounting and auditing fees of approximately $183,000 related to acquisition of Golden Trust and Lingshi Xinghai Magnesium in the 2012 period, a decrease in public relations fees of $71,000, a decrease in insurance expense of $41,000 and a decrease in other operating expenses.

(Loss) Income from Continuing Operations

Loss from continuing operations for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 amounted to $1.88 million as compared to income from continuing operations of $3.35 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2012.

Other Income (Expenses)

For the first quarter of fiscal 2013, other income decrease by $661,600, or 88.9% as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in other income of $394,500 related to the recovery of previously written off other receivables, and an increase in interest expense, net of interest income of $282,000.

Discontinued Operations

For the first quarter of fiscal 2013, loss from discontinued operations decreased by $232,000 as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012 primarily due to the sale and disposition of our specialty chemical subsidiary Lang Chemical and CDI Beijing, and to the impairment of three other subsidiaries in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012, as previously disclosed.

Net (loss) income

Net loss for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 amounted to $2.26 million as compared to net income of $2.74 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2012, due to the factor discussed above.

COMPARATIVE EBITDA BY SEGMENT

We consider earnings before income taxes, depreciation and amortization, commonly referred to as EBITDA, an important measure to estimate our enterprise and shareholder values as a whole and of our core segments, and for allocating capital resources within segments in order to maximize our operating profits and cash flow. In addition, analysts, investors and creditors may use EBITDA when analyzing our financial condition and cash generating ability.

EBITDA from operations is defined as net income (loss) from operations plus interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation, and amortization of intangibles, net, less interest income and income tax benefit. EBITDA from operations is a non-GAAP measure used by management to measure operating performance, and we believe it is a useful indicator in assessing investment requirements and financing business expansion in our core segments. Because EBITDA from continuing operations is not calculated identically by all companies, our calculation may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Liquidity is the ability of an enterprise to generate adequate amounts of cash to meet its needs for cash requirements. As of December 31, 2012 we had a working capital deficit of $1.36 million as compared to a working capital deficit of $0.37 million as of September 30, 2012. We rely upon cash generated from our operations, access under factoring and other lending relationships and advances from related parties to fund our operations. We do not have any commitments for capital expenditures. In addition to funds necessary to pay our operating expenses and satisfy our obligations as they become due, during fiscal 2013 we will require sufficient funds to fund the settlement agreement we entered into in the bankruptcy case involving CDII Trading discussed earlier in this report, as well as to satisfy any obligations which may ultimately be determined that we owe the Internal Revenue Service as described later in this report.. As a result of the working capital deficit and the operating losses incurred, our cash flow from operations is not expected to be sufficient to sustain our operations and satisfy our obligations as they become due.

We maintain cash and cash equivalents in the United States and China. At December 31, 2012 and September 30, 2012, bank deposits by geographic area were as follows:

Country	December 31, 2012				September 30, 2012
United States	$	166,591	5	%	$	468,450	14	%
China		3,266,366	95	%		2,969,388	86	%
Total cash and cash equivalents	$	3,432,957	100	%	$	3,437,838	100	%

As of December 31, 2012, a substantial portion of our cash balance, 95%, was in the form of RMB held in bank accounts at financial institutions located in the PRC. Cash held in banks in the PRC is not insured. The value of cash on deposit in China of $3.3 million at December 31, 2012 has been converted based on the exchange rate as of December 31, 2012.

In 1996, the Chinese government introduced regulations, which relaxed restrictions on the conversion of the RMB; however, restrictions still remain, including but not limited to restrictions on foreign invested entities. Foreign invested entities may only buy, sell or remit foreign currencies after providing valid commercial documents at only those banks authorized to conduct foreign exchanges. Furthermore, the conversion of RMB for capital account items, including direct investments and loans, is subject to PRC government approval. Chinese entities are required to establish and maintain separate foreign exchange accounts for capital account items. We cannot be certain Chinese regulatory authorities will not impose more stringent restrictions on the convertibility and outflow of RMB, especially with respect to foreign exchange transactions. Accordingly, cash on deposit in banks in the PRC is not readily deployable by us for purposes outside of China.

Our marketable securities available-for-sale as of December 31, 2012 totaled $378,000 as compared to $344,000 at September 30, 2012, an increase of $34,000. We expect to evaluate the carrying value of the remaining marketable equity securities we are holding for sale in subsequent periods and may elect to take additional impairments on these values.

Our accounts and notes receivable as of December 31, 2012 amounted to $4.41 million, a decrease of $6.8 million or 60.7% as compared to September 30, 2012, primarily due to the collection of open receivable balances a decrease in revenues for the quarter. Our Consulting segment generally receives full payment in advance for consulting services to be provided, primarily in the form of our client company’s common stock. For transactions in which we advise a new client company on entering into the U.S. public market for the first time, it may take some additional time for us to receive our transaction fees due to the necessary compliance and regulatory filing process, and it is possible that at such time, if ever, that we are able to sell the securities we receive as compensation that the funds we receive upon the sale will be equal to the amount of revenue we initially recognized.

- 36 -

Inventories as of December 31, 2012 amounted to $7.9 million, an increase of $2.2 million as compared to September 30, 2012, primarily due to our decrease in revenues and our continuing of production in inventories in anticipation of stronger sales in fiscal 2013.

Prepaid expenses and other current assets consist of prepayments to vendors for inventory, other receivables, loans receivable, VAT tax refunds, and security deposits. Prepaid expenses and other current assets as of December 31, 2012 amounted to $7.1 million, an increase of $1.2 million as compared to September 30, 2012, primarily due to a $1.43 increase in prepayments to suppliers within our magnesium segment.

Short-term loans at December 31, 2012 and September 30, 2012 include $1,400,000 owed under secured promissory notes bearing interest at the rate of 1% per month which mature between February 2013 and December 2013. Included in these obligations is a $400,000 principal amount secured note which is due to a related party. As collateral for these obligations, we have pledged an aggregate of 5,829,115 shares of common stock of China Education International, Inc. which we received as compensation for consulting services rendered by us. As described earlier in this report, during fiscal 2012 we fully impaired the carrying value of these securities as the issuer ceased filing reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission which makes it unlikely we will be able to liquidate these securities in the foreseeable future, if at all.

Accounts payable and accrued expenses represent payables associated with the general operations within each segment, including accrued payrolls. Accounts payable and accrued expenses as of December 31, 2012 amounted to $6.9 million, an increase of $1.7 million as compared to September 30, 2012, primarily due to the non-payment of trade payable related to lack of working capital.

Accounts and other payable – related party represent payables owed to the related parties for transactions occurred in the ordinary course of business or other financial events. As of December 31, 2012, accounts and other payable – related party amounted to $13.3 million, an increase of $687,000 as compared to September 30, 2012.

Certain events may have a negative impact on our liquidity position during fiscal 2013:

On March 9, 2012, our commodity trading subsidiary, CDII Trading, filed for voluntary bankruptcy protection under Chapter 11 in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Florida. On April 11, 2012, the bankruptcy judge issued an order converting the case under Chapter 11 to a case under Chapter 7 which would require liquidation of this subsidiary.

During fiscal 2012, CDII Trading had a net operating loss of $0.5 million, which was included in our consolidated statement of operations. We do not expect this bankruptcy filing to have a material impact on our consolidated financial position and operations since this subsidiary has assets of approximately $1.2 million, and liabilities of $3.2 million with accumulated deficit of approximately $2.0 million as of September 30, 2012. CDII Trading's assets are comprised primarily of prepayments to suppliers of iron ore minerals, and it uses loans from other affiliates to fund these prepayments and its operations for the iron ore minerals. A settlement agreement was reached on June 10, 2012 subject to Bankruptcy Court approval. On August 23, 2012 an amendment to the settlement agreement was executed by all parties which was subject to Bankruptcy Court hearings and approval on September 19, 2012. On September 24, 2012, the Bankruptcy Court issued an order approving the June 10, 2012 settlement agreement as amended. Under the terms of the amended settlement agreement, the CD Affiliates jointly and severally, agreed to purchase all of the assets of CDII Trading which includes all contractual rights to purchase iron ore and any surplus property in the estate after a final determination and payment of creditor claims. As a result of the approval of the amended settlement agreement by the Bankruptcy Court, we estimate the liquidity impact of the bankruptcy agreement at this time to be approximately $1,200,000, excluding legal expenses, which we have reserve for in our consolidated financial statements as described in greater detail in Note 21 to our consolidated financial statements appearing later in this report. The ultimate outcome of the bankruptcy and any possible future litigation claims proceedings related to Sunskar's claims cannot be predicted at this time, and thus the ultimate liquidity impact resulting from closure of all legal claims cannot be estimated.

In addition, the delisting of our common stock from The NASDAQ Stock Market in July 2012 was a trigger event under the designations, rights and preferences of our Series A convertible preferred stock which entitles the holders to require us to redeem the shares for cash upon notice to us. The redemption price is the greater of two formulas at the option of the holder(s). As of February 12, 2013, no holder of shares of our Series A convertible preferred stock has requested the redemption of such shares. Any amounts we are required to pay in future periods will have the effect of reducing our working capital in future periods.

Our short term loans of $1.4 million mature by March 31, 2013. While we intend to extend the maturity date for these loans, we have not entered into any agreements with the lenders for such an extension. In the event we are unable to extend the term of these loans, or we are unable to repay these obligations when due, we may have to seek additional financing, and no assurances can be given that such financing would be available on a timely basis, on terms that are acceptable or at all. Failure to meet the repayment or other obligations of our existing debt on or before its due date could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition and threaten our financial viability.

As set forth above, our working capital is not sufficient to fund our business and operations and pay our obligations as they become due. Following the delisting of our common stock NASDAQ in July 2012 our common stock is now quoted in the over-the-counter markets on the OTCQB Tier of the OTC Markets. The OTC Markets is an inter-dealer, over-the-counter market that provides generally significantly less liquidity than The NASDAQ Stock Market or any other national or regional exchange. Securities traded on the OTC Markets typically have fewer market makers and are not followed by analysts. The SEC's order handling rules, which apply to NASDAQ-listed securities, do not apply to securities quoted on the OTC Markets. The quotation of our shares on the OTC Markets may result in a less liquid market available for existing and potential shareholders to trade shares of our common stock, could depress the trading price of our common stock and could have a long-term adverse impact on our ability to raise capital in the future. In that event, our ability to grow may be severely limited until the capital markets are more readily accessible. In addition, while a U.S.-based company, a substantial portion of our operations are located in the PRC. The accounting scandals involving PRC-based companies during the past year could further hinder our ability to raise capital, even thought we have not been a subject of any inquiry. If we are unable to either significantly increase our operations and begin generating operating income or raise capital through the sale of debt or equity securities, we may be forced to cease some or all of our operations. In that event, our shareholders could lose their entire investment in our company.

Analysis of Cash Flows

During the first quarter of fiscal 2013, our net decrease in cash amounted to $4,881, which was comprised of $361,000 used in operating activities offset by $212,500 provided by investing activities, $24,000 provided by financing activities and $119,000 from non-cash favorable effect of prevailing exchange rate on our cash position.

Cash Used in Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 amounted to $361,000. The decrease was primarily due to a net loss of $2.3 million adjusted for non-cash items such as depreciation and amortization of $475,000, stock-based compensation and fees of $189,000 and a gain on sale of marketable securities available for sale of $(130,000), and changes in operating assets and liabilities including an increase in prepaid expenses and other assets of $987,000, an increase in inventories of $2.2 million, and an increase in other payables of $2.6 million offset by a decrease in accounts receivables of $6.4 million and an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $0.7 million.

Net cash used in operating activities during the first three of fiscal 2012 totaled $7.6 million, which primarily consisted of adjustments to reconcile non-cash items, including $5.2 million in fair value of non-cash marketable securities we received for consulting services provided to our client companies, and cash outflow of $3.1million in prepaid expenses and other assets, $1.6 million in inventories, and a decrease of $2.7 million in asset of discontinued operations offset an increase of $2.7 million in liabilities of discontinued operations. Cash inflow $1.7 million accounts receivable and other assets – related party, which were partially offset by cash inflow of $2.7 million from our net income.

- 38 -

Cash Provided by Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 amounted to $212,500, which was primarily due to proceeds from sales of marketable securities available-for-sale within our Consulting segment of $272,000 offset by $59,000 paid for purchases of property and equipment in the Magnesium segment.

Net cash used in investing activities for the first quarter of fiscal 2012 amounted to $54,000, which was primarily due to proceeds from sales of marketable securities available-for-sale within our Consulting segment of $459,000 offset by $405,000 paid for purchases of property and equipment in the Magnesium segment.

Cash Provided by Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 amounted to approximately $24,000 primarily due to a $4,000 decrease in restricted cash and proceeds from the exercise of stock options of $20,000.

Net cash provided by financing activities during the first quarter of fiscal 2012 totaled $54,000, primarily as a result of cash inflow of $214,000 from contributions from our non-controlling interest owners offset by an increase in restricted cash of $2,500, $138,000 for payment of outstanding loans and the payment in cash of preferred stock dividends of $20,130.

Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and Related Dividends

As of December 31, 2012, 1,006 shares of Series A convertible preferred stock remained outstanding. During the first quarter of fiscal 2013, we paid dividends of $20,130 in the form of 85,297 shares of our common stock. During fiscal 2012 we paid dividends of $20,130 in cash and $40,260 in the form of 87,641 shares of our common stock. In addition, the July 11, 2012 delisting of our common stock from the NASDAQ Stock Market constituted a “trigger event” in the designations, rights and preferences of this series of stock which entitled the holders to redeem the preferred stock at a premium or, in lieu thereof, may require us to reduce the conversion price.

OFF BALANCE SHEET ITEMS

Under SEC regulations, we are required to disclose our off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, such as changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors. An off-balance sheet arrangement means a transaction, agreement or contractual arrangement to which any entity that is not consolidated with us is a party, under which we have:

	•		Any obligation under certain guarantee contracts,
	•		Any retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to an unconsolidated entity or similar arrangement that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support to that entity for such assets,
	•		Any obligation under a contract that would be accounted for as a derivative instrument, except that it is both indexed to our stock and classified in stockholder’s equity in our statement of financial position, and
	•		Any obligation arising out of a material variable interest held by us in an unconsolidated entity that provides financing, liquidity, market risk or credit risk support to us, or engages in leasing, hedging or research and development services with us.

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that we are required to disclose pursuant to these regulations. In the ordinary course of business, we enter into operating lease commitments, purchase commitments and other contractual obligations. These transactions are recognized in our financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our unaudited consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these unaudited consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

- 39 -

A summary of significant accounting policies are discussed in further detail in the notes to the consolidated financial statements appearing in this report. We believe that the application of these policies on a consistent basis enables us to provide useful and reliable financial information about our operating results and financial condition.

Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results when ultimately realized could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates in fiscal 2013 and fiscal 2012 include the valuation of investments available-for-sale, the allowance for doubtful accounts receivable, the allowance for obsolete inventory, the fair value of stock-based compensation, the useful life of property, plant and equipment, and assumptions used in assessing impairment of long-term assets and assets held for sale.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

We follow ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” as amended by Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Financial Staff Position (FSP) No. 157 and related guidance. Those provisions relate to our financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value and our fair value disclosures related to financial assets and liabilities. ASC 820 defines fair value, expands related disclosure requirements and specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on the nature of the inputs used to develop the fair value measures. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, assuming the transaction occurs in the principal or most advantageous market for that asset or liability.

There are three levels of inputs to fair value measurements - Level 1, meaning the use of quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets; Level 2, meaning the use of quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active or are directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, meaning the use of unobservable inputs. We use Level 1 inputs for our fair value measurements whenever there is an active market, with actual quotes, market prices, and observable inputs on the measurement date. We use Level 2 inputs for our fair value measurements whenever there are quoted prices for similar securities in an active market or quoted prices for identical securities in an inactive market. We use observable market data whenever available.

Impairment of long-lived assets

In accordance with ASC 360-10, “Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, we periodically review our long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable. We recognize an impairment loss when the sum of expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. The amount of impairment is measured as the differences between the discounted future cash flow or estimated fair value and the book value of the underlying asset.

Long-Lived Assets Held for Sale

We follow ASC 360-10-45, “Long-Lived Assets Classified as Held for Sale,” and ASC 360-10-15, “ Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets .” Long-lived assets are classified as held for sale when certain criteria are met. These criteria include management’s commitment to a plan to sell the assets; the availability of the assets for immediate sale in their present condition; an active program to locate buyers and other actions to sell the assets has been initiated; the sale of the assets is probable and their transfer is expected to qualify for recognition as a completed sale within one year; the assets are being marketed at reasonable prices in relation to their fair value; and it is unlikely that significant changes will be made to the plan to sell the assets. We measure long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale at the lower of carrying amount or fair value, less cost to sell.

Revenue Recognition

	a.		The date the parties come to a mutual understanding of the terms of the equity-based compensation arrangement and a commitment for performance by the grantee to earn the equity instruments (a performance commitment) is reached; and
	b.		The date at which the grantee’s performance necessary to earn the equity instruments is complete (that is, the vesting date).

Foreign Currency Translation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented in United States dollars. The functional currency of our U.S. operations is the U.S. dollar and the functional currency of our Chinese subsidiaries is the Renminbi (“RMB”), the official currency of the PRC. Equity accounts in the consolidated financial statements are translated into United States dollars from RMB at their historical exchange rates when the capital transactions occurred. Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rates as of the balance sheet date. Income and expenditures are translated at the average exchange rates for the three month periods ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. The RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currency and all foreign exchange transactions must take place through PRC authorized institutions. No representation is made that the RMB amounts could have been, or could be, converted into United States dollars at the rates applied in the translation.

Comprehensive income

We follow ASC 205, “Presentation of Financial Statements,” and ASC 220, “Reporting Comprehensive Income, ” to recognize the elements of comprehensive income. Comprehensive income is comprised of net income and all changes to the statements of stockholders’ equity, except those due to investments by stockholders, changes in paid-in capital and distributions to stockholders. Comprehensive income for the fiscal 2012 and fiscal 2011 included net income, foreign currency translation adjustments, unrealized gains or losses on available-for-sale marketable securities, net of income taxes, and unrealized gains or losses on available-for-sale marketable securities -related party, net of income taxes.

ITEM 4.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures as defined in the Exchange Act that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported as specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management, with the participation of our CEO who also serves as our principal financial and accounting officer, performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2012. Based on that evaluation, our management, including our CEO, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2012 as a result of material weaknesses in our disclosure controls and procedures. These material weaknesses are the result of continuing significant deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting which is described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2102..

A “significant deficiency” is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those responsible for oversight of a registrant’s financial reporting. And, a “material weakness” is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company’s annual or interim financial statements would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. We expect the significant deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting will be remediated by the end of fiscal 2013. Until such time, however, as the significant deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting are remediated, we expect to have continuing material weaknesses in our disclosure controls and procedures.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during last fiscal quarter 2013 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
