NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

Note 1 – Organization

China Energy Recovery, Inc. ("CER" or the "Company"), formerly known as MMA Media Inc. and Commerce Development Corporation Ltd., was incorporated under the laws of the State of Maryland in May, 1998. On April 7, 2006, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with its wholly-owned subsidiary, Commerce Development Corporation, Ltd., a Delaware corporation, which changed the Company's state of incorporation from Maryland to Delaware as a result. On February 5, 2008, the Company changed its name to China Energy Recovery, Inc.

On January 24, 2008, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with Poise Profit International, Ltd. ("Poise Profit"), a company incorporated on November 23, 2007, under the laws of the British Virgin Islands, and the shareholders of Poise Profit. The share exchange transaction (the "Share Exchange") was consummated on April 15, 2008 and Poise Profit became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. On April 16, 2008, the Company conducted a 1-for-2 reverse stock split pursuant to which each two shares of CER's common stock, issued and outstanding on the record date of April 15, 2008, converted into one share of CER's common stock. Pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement, the Company agreed to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of Poise Profit's common stock in exchange for the issuance of 20,757,090 shares, or 81.5% of the Company's common stock on a post 1-for-2 reverse stock split basis, to the shareholders of Poise Profit. Because the acquisition is treated as a reverse acquisition and recapitalization whereby Poise Profit is deemed to be the accounting acquirer (legal acquiree) and the Company to be the accounting acquiree (legal acquirer), the financial statements of the Company have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the acquisition from the beginning of the reported period. The historical financial statements for periods prior to April 15, 2008 are those of Poise Profit except that the equity section and earnings per share have been retroactively restated to reflect the reverse acquisition and recapitalization.

Poise Profit is an off-shore holding company and has no operating business activities. Poise Profit owns 100% of HAIE Hi-tech Engineering (Hong Kong) Company, Limited ("Hi-tech") and CER (Hong Kong) Holdings Limited (“CER Hong Kong”), which were incorporated in Hong Kong on January 4, 2002 and August 13, 2008, respectively.

Shanghai Hai Lu Kun Lun Hi-tech Engineering Co., Ltd ("Shanghai Engineering") was established in Shanghai, China in July 1999. Shanghai Xin Ye Environmental Protection Engineering Technology Co., Ltd ("Shanghai Environmental") was incorporated in Shanghai on May 23, 2007. Mr. Qinghuan Wu, the Company’s chairman and Chief Executive Officer, became the sole shareholder of Shanghai Environmental in November 2007. Shanghai Environmental is not an operating company but serves as a vehicle for arranging sales and maximizing tax benefits.

All of Shanghai Engineering’s manufacturing activities are conducted through a Leasing and Operation Agreement, a form of cooperative manufacturing agreement, originally effective as of May 1, 2003 and subsequently renewed and amended with a state-owned enterprise, Shanghai Si Fang. Pursuant to the agreement, Shanghai Si Fang leases certain land use right, buildings and fixed assets (lease elements) in one of its subsidiaries, Vessel Works Division, and provides management services and licenses the “Si Fang” brand and manufacturing license (non-lease elements) of Vessel Works Division to Shanghai Engineering. Because the arrangement contains both the lease and non-lease elements, the amount of quarterly payment is allocated between the lease and non-lease deliverables based on their fair values. The lease elements are classified and accounted for as operating leases and the lease expense is recorded on a straight-line basis. The non-lease elements are accounted for as prepayment for management and licensing fees and the payment is amortized on a straight-line basis over each contractual period.

Shanghai Engineering does not have a variable interest in Vessel Works Division through this agreement as the arrangement is established between Shanghai Engineering and Shanghai Si Fang. Shanghai Engineering does not have any contractual or ownership interest in Vessel Works Division, and therefore, Shanghai Engineering does not have a variable interest in Vessel Works Division.

The arrangement, however, may result in Shanghai Engineering having a variable interest in Shanghai Si Fang, but as Shanghai Si Fang is a state-owned enterprise that has substantive operations other than the Lease and Operation arrangement, Shanghai Engineering is not the primary beneficiary of Shanghai Si Fang.

Effective on January 1, 2006, Hi-tech executed a series of contractual arrangements with Shanghai Engineering and its shareholders, including a Consulting Services Agreement and an Operating Agreement, through which Hi-tech has the right to advise, consult, manage and operate Shanghai Engineering, and collect and own all of its net profits. Additionally, Shanghai Engineering's shareholders have assigned their voting rights over Shanghai Engineering to Hi-tech. In order to further reinforce Hi-tech's rights to control and operate Shanghai Engineering, Shanghai Engineering and its shareholders have granted Hi-tech the exclusive right and option to acquire all of their equity interests in Shanghai Engineering. Further, Shanghai Engineering shareholders have pledged all of their rights, titles and interests in Shanghai Engineering to Hi-tech.

Effective on May 23, 2007, Hi-tech executed a series of contractual arrangements with Shanghai Environmental and its shareholders, including a Consulting Services Agreement and an Operating Agreement, through which Hi-tech has the right to advise, consult, manage and operate Shanghai Environmental, and collect and own all of its net profits. Additionally, Mr. Qinghuan Wu, Shanghai Environmental's sole shareholder has assigned his voting rights over Shanghai Environmental to Hi-tech. In order to further reinforce Hi-tech's rights to control and operate Shanghai Environmental, Shanghai Environmental and Mr. Qinghuan Wu have granted Hi-tech the exclusive right and option to acquire all of Mr. Wu’s equity interest in Shanghai Environmental. Further, Mr. Wu has pledged all of his right, title and interests in Shanghai Environmental.

In order to restructure the holding structure of the Company (the “Restructuring”), on December 2, 2008, 100% of the shares of CER Hong Kong were transferred to Poise Profit from Mr. Qinghuan Wu and his wife, Mrs. Zhou, and all the contracts between Hi-tech and Shanghai Engineering, and between Hi-tech and Shanghai Environmental were transferred to CER Hong Kong. Thereafter, CER Hong Kong, through its variable interest entities located in the People's Republic of China ("PRC"), designs, develops, manufactures and markets waste heat boilers and pressure vessels in the fields of chemical industry, petrochemical industry, oil refinery, fine chemicals, water and power conservancy, metallurgical, environmental protection, waste heat utilization and power generation from waste heat recovery.

On November 11, 2008, CER Energy Recovery (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. (“CER Shanghai”) was incorporated in Shanghai by CER Hong Kong. CER Shanghai’s registered capital is $5,000,000. As of December 31, 2009, CER Hong Kong has contributed approximately $3,380,000 capital in CER shanghai. CER Shanghai is mainly engaged in the development of energy recovery and environmental protection technologies, and design, installation and servicing of waste heat recovery systems.

CER Energy Recovery (Yangzhou) Co., Ltd. (“CER Yangzhou”) was incorporated on August 28, 2009 in Yangzhou by CER Hong Kong. CER Yangzhou’s registered capital is $20,000,000 and the contributed capital was approximately $4,500,000 as of December 31, 2009 and additional capital of approximately $6,000,000 was contributed in 2010. CER Yangzhou is mainly engaged in the development and manufacturing of waste heat recovery systems and other related energy efficiency equipment.

As all the above entities are under common control, the arrangements described above have been accounted for as a reorganization of entities and the financial statements have been prepared as if the reorganization had occurred retroactively. CER, Poise Profit, CER Hong Kong, Hi-tech, Shanghai Engineering, CER Shanghai, CER Yangzhou, and Shanghai Environmental, are collectively hereinafter referred to as the “Group".

Note 3 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements are set out below:

(a)	Principal of consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“US GAAP”). The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company, its wholly-owned subsidiaries Poise profit, CER Hong Kong, Hi-tech, CER Shanghai, CER Yangzhou, and its variable interest entities (“VIEs”) Shanghai Engineering and Shanghai Environmental. All significant inter-company transactions and balances among the Company, its subsidiaries and VIEs are eliminated upon consolidation.

In accordance with the Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 810-10, variable interest entities (VIEs) are generally entities that lack sufficient equity to finance their activities without additional financial support from other parties or whose equity holders lack adequate decision making ability. All VIEs with which the Company is involved must be evaluated to determine the primary beneficiary of the risks and rewards of the VIE. The primary beneficiary is required to consolidate the VIE for financial reporting purposes.

The Company has concluded that Shanghai Engineering, and Shanghai Environmental are VIEs and that the Company is the primary beneficiary. Under the requirements of US GAAP, the Company consolidated the financial statements of Shanghai Engineering and Shanghai Environmental.

(b) Use of estimates

In preparing financial statements in conformity with US GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the reported periods. Significant estimates include useful lives of equipment, allowance for doubtful accounts, deferred tax assets and the completion percentage of the construction contracts. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The Company maintains cash balances at financial institutions within the U.S. Hong Kong and PRC. Balances at financial institutions or state owned banks within the PRC are not covered by insurance. Balances at financial institutions within the United States are covered by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation for $250,000 per depositor per institution. Balances at financial institutions within Hong Kong are fully covered by the government provided insurance until the end of 2010. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risks on its cash in bank accounts.

For the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2010, the Company’s five top customers accounted for 97% and 91% of the Company's sales, respectively. Receivables from these five top customers were 8.7% and 63% of total accounts receivable at March 31, 2009 and 2010, respectively.

For the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2010, five top suppliers provided approximately 54.3% and 36.4% of the Company's purchases of raw materials, respectively. Payables to these five suppliers were approximately 2.2% and 15.1% at March 31, 2009 and 2010, respectively.

The Company's operations are carried out in the PRC. Accordingly, the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic and legal environments in the country, and by the general state of the country's economy. The Company's operations in the PRC are subject to specific considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies carrying out operations in the United States. These include risks associated with, among others, the political, economic and legal environments and foreign currency exchange. The Company's results may be adversely affected by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion and remittance abroad, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things.

(d) Foreign currency translations

The reporting currency of the Company is the U.S. dollar. Shanghai Engineering, CER Shanghai, CER Yangzhou, Hi-tech and CER Hong Kong use the Renminbi ("RMB") as their functional currency. Results of operations and cash flow are translated at average exchange rates during the period, and assets and liabilities are translated at the end of period exchange rates. Cash flows are also translated at average translation rates for the period, therefore, amounts reported on the statement of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the balance sheet. Translation adjustments resulting from this process are included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in stockholders' equity. Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations from transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the results of operations as incurred. For the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2010, foreign currency translation income amounted to $29,126 and $9,432, respectively.

The PRC government imposes significant exchange restrictions on fund transfers out of the PRC that are not related to business operations. These restrictions have not had a material impact on the Company because it has not engaged in any significant transactions that are subject to the restrictions.

Accumulated other comprehensive loss amounted to $77,485 and $68,053 as of December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2010, respectively. The balance sheet accounts with the exception of equity at December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2010 were translated at RMB6.83 to $1.00 and RMB 6.83 to $1.00 respectively.

The average translation rates applied to income and cash flow statement amounts for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2010 were RMB6.84 to $1.00 and RMB6.83 to $1.00, respectively.

(e) Cash

Cash includes cash on hand and demand deposits with banks, which are unrestricted as to withdrawal and use, and which have original maturities less than three months.

(f) Notes receivable

Notes receivable represent trade accounts receivable due from various customers where the customers’ banks have guaranteed the payment of the receivables. The notes are non-interest bearing and normally paid within three to six months. The Company has the ability to submit a request for payment to the customer’s bank earlier than the scheduled payment date, but will incur an interest charge and a processing fee.

(g) Receivables and allowance for doubtful accounts

Receivables include trade accounts due from the customers, and other receivables from cash advances to employees or third parties. Management regularly reviews aging of receivables and changes in payment trends by its customers, and records a reserve when they believe collection of amounts due are at risk.

Allowance for doubtful account, December 31, 2008	$	251,458
Addition		337,383
Translation adjustment		207
Allowance for doubtful account, December 31, 2009	$	589,048
Addition		-
Translation adjustment		-
Allowance for doubtful accounts, March 31, 2010	$	589,048

Accounts receivables which are expected to be collected after twelve months are reclassified as long-term accounts receivables. The Company reserved a provision for account receivable balances based on the nature of the business and accounts receivables collection history (further discussed in Note 4).

(h) Inventories

Inventories are comprised of raw materials, work in progress and finished goods and are stated at the lower of cost or market value. Costs of work in progress include direct labor, direct materials, and production overhead before the goods are ready for sale. Management reviews inventories for obsolescence or cost in excess of market value periodically. The obsolescence, if any, is recorded as a reserve against the inventory. The cost in excess of market value is written off and recorded as cost of revenues.

(i) Advances on purchase

Advances on purchases are monies advanced to outside vendors for inventory purchases and plant and equipment purchases. This amount is refundable and bears no interest.

(j) Plant and equipment, net

Plant and equipment is stated at cost. Depreciation is provided principally by use of the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs, which do not improve or extend the expected useful lives of the assets, are charged to operations as incurred, while renewals and betterments are capitalized.

Management established a 5% residual value for equipment. The estimated useful lives of the equipment are as follows:

Plant	20 years
Transportation equipment	3-10 years
Machinery equipment	5-10 years
Office equipment	3-5 years

The gain or loss on disposal of equipment is the difference between the net sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the relevant assets; gains or losses, if any, are recognized in the statement of operations. There were no disposal of assets during the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2010.

(k) Impairment of assets

The Company assesses the carrying value of long-lived assets each reporting period, more often when factors indicating impairment are present, and reduces the carrying value of such assets by the amount of the impairment. The Company determines the existence of such impairment by measuring the expected future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) and comparing such amount to the net asset carrying value. An impairment loss, if it exists, is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Fair value generally means based on either quoted market price, if available, or discounted cash flow analysis. There were no impairment of long lived assets recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2010.

(l) Advances from customers

Advances from customers represent amounts advanced by customers on product or service orders. The product (service) normally is shipped (rendered) within one year after receipt of the advance payment, and the related sales are recognized in accordance with the Company’s revenue recognition policy.

(m) Income taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred income taxes are recognized for temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial statements, net operating loss carry forwards and credits, by applying enacted statutory tax rate in the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Current income taxes are provided for in accordance with the laws of the relevant taxing authorities.

(n) Value added tax

Sales revenue represents the invoiced value of goods, net of a value-added tax ("VAT"). All of the Company's products that are sold in the PRC are subject to a Chinese value-added tax at a rate of 17% of the gross sales price. This VAT may be offset by VAT paid by the Company on raw materials and other materials included in the cost of producing its finished product. The Company recorded VAT payable and VAT receivable net of payments in the financial statements. The VAT tax return is filed offsetting the payables against the receivables.

(o) Operation leases

Leases where substantial all the rewards and risks of ownership of assets remain with the leasing company are accounted for as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases are charged to the statement of operation on a straight line basis over the lease periods.

(p) Stock based compensation

In accordance with ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation, the Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for stock based compensation at the grant date fair value of the award.

The Group recognizes the stock based compensation costs, net of a forfeiture rate, on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for each award.

ASC 718 requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. For the stock options granted in the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2010 the Group used 0% forfeiture rate.

Cost of goods acquired or services received from non-employees is measured based on the fair value of the awards issued on the measurement date as defined in ASC 505. Awards granted to non-employees are remeasured at each reporting date using the fair value as at each period end. Changes in fair values between the interim reporting dates are attributed consistent with the method used in recognizing the original stock based compensation costs.

(q) Shipping and handling

Shipping and handling costs are included in selling, general and administrative expenses which totaled $7,614 and $43,843 for the three months period ended March 31, 2009 and 2010, respectively.

(r) Revenue recognition

The Company derives revenues principally from

(a)

Sales of energy recovery systems, and

(b)

Provision of design services, and

(c)

Provision of Engineering, Procurement and Construction ("EPC") services, which are essentially turnkey contracts where the Company provides all services in the whole construction process from design, development, engineering, manufacturing, procurement to installation.

Revenue by the above categories for three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2010 are summarized as follows:

	Three months ended March 31,
	2009			2010
Revenue:
Product		$	1,310,027		$	1,410,493
Service			-			-
EPC contracts			-			2,683,285
Totals		$	1,310,027		$	4,093,778

In providing design services, the Company designs energy recovery systems and other related systems based on a customer's requirements and the deliverable consists of engineering drawings. The customer may elect to engage the Company to manufacture the designed system or choose to present the Company's drawings to other manufacturers for manufacturing and installation. In contrast, when providing EPC services, the customer is purchasing a turnkey energy recovery system and the Company is involved throughout the entire process from design to installation.

Sales of the Company's energy recovery systems and related products are essentially product sales. The products consist mainly of waste heat boilers and other related equipment manufactured according to specific customers' specifications. Once manufactured, the Company ships the products to its customers in their entirety in one batch. The Company’s service arrangement also includes a limited warranty to its customers pursuant to which the customers retain between 5% and 10% of the particular contract price as retainage during the limited warranty period (usually 12-18 months). The Company generally recognizes revenues including retainage from product sales when (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, which is generally represented by a contract between the Company and the customer; (ii) products are shipped; (iii) title and risk of ownership have passed to the customer, which generally occurs at the time of delivery; (iv) the customer accepts the products upon quality inspection performed by them; (v) the purchase price is agreed to between the Company and the customer; and (vi) collectability is reasonably assured. Net revenues represent the invoiced value of products, less returns and discounts, and net of value-added tax.

The Company recognizes revenues from design services when the services are provided, the design drawings are delivered, invoices are issued and collectability is reasonably assured. The Company generally delivers the drawings in one batch.

In accordance with the accounting standard regarding performance of construction-type and certain production-type contracts, and long-term construction-type contracts, the company adopted the percentage of completion method to recognize revenues and cost of sales for EPC contracts. EPC contracts are long-term, complex contracts involving multiple elements, such as design, manufacturing and installation, which all form one integral EPC project. The energy recovery system involved in an EPC project is highly customized to the specific customer's facilities and essentially not transferable to any other facilities without significant modification and cost. It would be difficult, if not impossible, to beneficially use a single element of a specific EPC project on a standalone basis other than in connection with the facilities for which it was intended. EPC contracts are by nature long-term construction-type contracts, usually lasting more than one accounting period, and the Company is able to reasonably estimate the progress toward completion, including contracts revenues and contracts costs. EPC contacts specify the customers' rights to the goods, the consideration to be paid and received, and the terms of payment. Specifically, the Company has the right to require a customer to make progress payments upon completion of determined stages of the project which serve as evidence of the customer's approval and acceptance of the work completed to date as complying with the terms of the particular EPC contract and upon which the company recognize the revenue.

(s) Fair value of financial instruments

The accounting standard regarding fair value of financial instruments and related fair value measurements defines financial instruments and requires fair value disclosures of those financial instruments. On January 1, 2008, the Company adopted accounting standard regarding fair value measurements, which defines fair value, establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement and enhances disclosures requirements for fair value measures. The carrying amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets for current assets and current liabilities qualify as financial instruments. Management concluded the carrying values of these financial instruments are a reasonable estimate of fair value because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and the current market rates of interest. The three levels of valuation hierarchy are defined as follows:

Level 1

Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. Fair valued assets and liabilities that are generally included in this category are assets comprised of cash, accounts and notes receivable, and liabilities comprised of bank loans, accounts payable, convertible notes, accrued liabilities and other payables. As of December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2010, the carrying values of these assets and liabilities approximated their fair values.

Level 2	Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the assets or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instruments. At December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2010, the Company did not have any fair value assets or liabilities classified as Level 2.

Level 3	Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value. Inputs reflected management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Consideration is given to the risk inherent in the valuation technique and the risk inherent in the inputs to the model.

The following table presents information about the company’s financial liabilities classified as Level 3 as of March 31, 2010.

			Balance as of March 31, 2010
	Carrying		Fair Value Measurements
	Value		Using Fair Value Hierarchy
			Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Derivative liability, current (Note 14)	$	412,220		-		-	$	412,220
Derivative liability (Note 14)	$	279,750		-		-	$	279,750
Warrant liability (Note 14)	$	854,461		-		-	$	854,461

A summary of changes in Level 3 derivative and warrant liabilities for the years ended December 31, 2009 and for the three months ended March 31, 2010 were as follows:

Balance at January 1, 2009	$	1,524,268
Warrants issued at issuance of convertible notes (Note 14)		1,387,912
Derivative liability at issuance of convertible notes (Note 14)		1,270,500
Change in fair value of warrant liability recognized in earnings		(1,539,233	)
Change in fair value of derivative liability recognized in earnings		(399,500	)
Balance at December 31, 2009		2,243,947
Derivative liability at issuance of long term loan (Note 9)		132,470
Change in fair value of warrant liability recognized in earnings		(518,486	)
Change in fair value of derivative liabilities recognized in earnings		(311,500	)
Balance at March 31, 2010	$	1,546,431

(t) Segment reporting

The Group has adopted ASC 280, Segment Reporting, for its Segment reporting. The Group mainly operates in China and measures its business as a single segment.

(u) Recent accounting pronouncements

In January 2010, the FASB issued new accounting guidance related to the disclosure requirements for fair value measurements and provides clarification for existing disclosures requirements. More specifically, this update will require (a) an entity to disclose separately the amounts of significant transfers in and out of Levels 1 and 2 fair value measurements and to describe the reasons for the transfers; and (b) information about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements to be presented separately (i.e. present the activity on a gross basis rather than net) in the reconciliation for fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 inputs). This guidance clarifies existing disclosure requirements for the level of disaggregation used for classes of assets and liabilities measured at fair value and require disclosures about the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements using Level 2 and Level 3 inputs. The new disclosures and clarifications of existing disclosure are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosure requirements for related to the purchases, sales, issuances and settlements in the rollforward activity of Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosure requirements are effective for fiscal years ending after December 31, 2010. The adoption of the updated guidance does not have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

In February 2010, the FASB issued accounting standards update which amends the accounting standard on subsequent event. The accounting update provides guidance on events that occur after the balance sheet date but prior to the issuance of the financial statements. The accounting standard distinguishes events requiring recognition in the financial statements and those that may require disclosure in the financial statements. As a result of the accounting update, SEC registrants will not disclose the date through which management evaluated subsequent events in the financial statements, either in originally issued financial statements or reissued financial statements. The accounting standard was effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009, and the accounting update is effective immediately. We have evaluated subsequent events in accordance with the accounting update.

In April 2010, the FASB issued an authoritative pronouncement on effect of denominating the exercise price of a share-based payment award in the currency of the market in which the underlying equity securities trades and that currency is different from (1) entity’s functional currency, (2) functional currency of the foreign operation for which the employee provides services, and (3) payroll currency of the employee. The guidance clarifies that an employee share-based payment award with an exercise price denominated in the currency of a market in which a substantial portion of the entity’s equity securities trades should be considered an equity award assuming all other criteria for equity classification are met. The pronouncement will be effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2010, and will be applied prospectively. Affected entities will be required to record a cumulative catch-up adjustment for all awards outstanding as of the beginning of the annual period in which the guidance is adopted. The Company does not expect the adoption of this pronouncement to have a significant impact on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In July 2010, the FASB issued new disclosure guidance related to the credit quality of financing receivables and the allowance for credit losses. The guidance will require companies to provide more information about the credit quality of their financing receivables in the disclosures to financial statements including, but not limited to, significant purchases and sales of financing receivables, aging information and credit quality indicators. We will adopt this accounting standard upon its effective date for periods ending on or after December 15, 2010, and do not anticipate that this adoption will have a significant impact on our financial position or results of operations.

Note 7 – Intangible Assets

Intangible assets mainly represent purchase for usage of a parcel of land in Yangzhou where the manufacturing plant is located. The Company has obtained the usage title of the land in December 2009. The land use right is recorded at cost of $2,438,632 and is amortized over the lease term of 50 years starting from November 2009 when it was acquired. The amortization expense recorded for three months ended March 31, 2010 amounted to $20,401. The remaining balance represents the net value of purchased software.

Note 8 – Short Term Bank Loans

On September 1, 2009, the Company borrowed $880,200 in a short-term loan from one bank in China which matures on August 31, 2010 with a 5.841% annual interest rate. The bank loan was collateralized by Shanghai Engineering’s leased office space, which is owned jointly by Mr. Qinghuan Wu, the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, and his son. The full amount of $880,200 was repaid on January 5, 2010.

Interest expenses of short-term bank loans were $2,055 and $1,571 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2010, respectively.

Note 9 – Long Term Loans

On February 1, 2010, the Company, through its subsidiaries, CER Shanghai (“Borrower”) and CER Hong Kong (“Paying Agent”), entered into a series of agreements for a loan arrangement with two lenders (the “Loan Agreements”). The proceeds of this loan are for construction of the new plant in China for the production of the Company’s products.

The aggregate principal amount of the loan under the two Loan Agreements is $4,000,000. The principal is due January 15, 2013, and bears interest at the annual rate of 15.1%. The loan repayments are to be made three times a year starting May 15, 2010, and are fully amortizing, such that the principal and interest will be fully repaid at maturity. The Company will pay the sum of $ 566,023 at the end of every four calendar months, commencing May 15, 2010. The Borrower has entered into other agreements to provide that moneys due from a certain sale and service contract and related guarantee will be directed to pay the amounts due under the Loan Agreements, with the balance paid to the Borrower or its affiliates. The loan agreement between the Paying Agent and Borrower and related agreements have been registered with State Administration of Foreign Exchange (SAFE) for the inflow of funds and the repayment of the loan obligations. The loans may be prepaid at any time with a premium of 1.25% of the principal amount being paid. The Loan Agreements provide for the typical events of default, including a cross default clause, and the Company has made various representations and given various covenants to the lenders as are typical of such arrangements.

As a guarantee of the payments under the Loan Agreements, Mr. Qinghuan Wu, the Chief Executive Officer of the Company and the principal officer of the Borrower, Paying Agent and other affiliates, has pledged 8,000,006 shares for the repayment of the obligations under the Loan Agreements.

As a result of the Company not filing its annual and quarterly reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, on a timely basis for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009 and the quarters ended March 31, 2010, June 30, 2010 and September 30, 2010, the Company was in violation of various loan covenants and default terms with respect its obligation to file SEC reports and comply with applicable laws under the terms of the Loan Agreements. The violation of the covenants and default permit the note holders to accelerate the repayment of the full amount of the principal and interest due on the loan. To date, the lenders have not delivered any notice of acceleration and have not indicated that they intend to give such a notice. One of the lenders representing $2,000,000 in principal amount of the loans, provided to the Company on November 1, 2010, a waiver of the covenant and default terms and also provided sufficient time to make the necessary past due filings, before a covenant violation or default would result again concerning these issues.

According to the loan agreement provisions, as an additional inducement to the Lender to make the Loan, CER will issue to the Lender or its designee, on each date that an amount of principal of the Loan is paid, shares of common stock of CER, on a restricted basis, without registration rights, as follows: If the RMB exchange rate between the RMB and United States Dollar (“USD”) is less than RMB 6.8271(the agreed upon exchange rate on the date of the making of the Loan), such that the value of the RMB is greater than the USD, then the difference in the principal installment calculated at the rate of RMB and calculated at the rate of RMB to USD on such repayment date will be converted into a US dollar amount and divided by the closing price of one share of common stock of CER on the OTC or stock exchange, the result of which will represent that number of shares to be issued to the Lender as of such date, in restricted stock. For the three months ended March 30, 2010, the derivative liabilities amounted to $132,470.

Since the lenders have right to request early repayment, thus the long term loans and the derivative liabilities were reclassified to current liabilities as of March 31, 2010.

Contemporaneously with the funding of the Loan Agreements, on February 1, 2010, Mr. Qinghuan Wu, arranged for a loan from Haide Engineering (Hong Kong) Limited (“Haide”), a company controlled by Mr. Qinghuan Wu, to lend to the Paying Agent the sum of $1,000,000. The proceeds of this loan will be forwarded to CER Yangzhou for additional paid-in capital which will help fund the new plant being built in China. The loan is an interest only loan, bearing interest at the annual rate of 9.5%, and is unsecured; the Company will pay the sum of $23,750 at the end of every three calendar months. The principal is due in full on January 30, 2012. The loan is unsecured and there are no guarantees of the interest or principal. Shanghai Engineering has subordinated its loan to those under the Loan Agreements.

Note 10 – Convertible Notes

On May 21, 2009, the Company entered into a term loan agreement (“Convertible Notes Agreement”) with an investment company (the “Lender”). Pursuant to the Convertible Notes Agreement, the lender provides term loan financing (“Convertible Notes”) to the Company in an amount of up to $5,000,000 within 6 months of the making, which may be drawn from time to time, in whole or in installments, upon notice, but once repaid shall not be subject to reborrowing. The proceeds from this Convertible Note are for the construction of a new plant located in China for the production of the products, including, but not limited to, the purchase of land for the plant, buildings, equipment and for the facilitating of financing loans from one or more in-China banks and other institutional lenders. Any amount borrowed will bear interest at 9.5%, payable every six months, calculated and compounded quarterly. Each draw is due twenty-four (24) months after the draw down date, together with any accrued and unpaid interest. The Company drew down $5,000,000 on September 29, 2009. For the three months ended March 31, 2010, interest expense of $552,883 was incurred. The Convertible Notes could be converted to 2,777,778 shares of common stock at the conversion price of $1.80. In addition, the Company has issued the Lender a five-year common stock purchase warrant (“Commitment Warrants”) to purchase up to 1,388,889 shares of the Company’s common stock, which is that number of shares of the Company’s common stock equal to 50% of the principal sum of this Convertible Note divided by the conversion price of $1.80. In connection with these Convertible Notes, the Company issued to the Lender one hundred shares of Series B preferred stock that provides for voting rights and directorships in the event of defaults equal to or exceeding $1,000,000 in the aggregate amount.

The Lender may recall a Convertible Note after the first anniversary of the draw down at a redemption price equal to the outstanding principal plus any accrued and unpaid interest upon the closing by the Company of any debt and/or equity financing (except for debt financings with banks or institutional lenders in China), in an amount up to 50% of the amount financed. Additionally, upon occurrence of certain events, the Lender can demand the entire outstanding principal, together with any accrued and unpaid interest to be immediately repaid in full or in part. The Company can also prepay the Convertible Note at any time it desires with accrued interest and unpaid interest. On September 13, 2010, the Lender agreed not to exercise its right to request an early repayment prior to January 1, 2011.

As of March 31, 2010, 50% of the Convertible Notes are classified as a current liability, while the remaining 50% is classified as long-term liability. The embedded conversion feature is accounted for as a derivative liability separately in the balance sheet in accordance with ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, because the conversion price is denominated in US dollars, which is a currency other than the Company’s functional currency. Approximately 50% of the derivative liability is classified as a current liability while the other 50% is classified as a long-term liability based on the timing of the cash flows derived from the Convertible Notes. The Convertible Notes were recorded with a discount equal to the fair value of the conversion feature at the transaction date and were accreted to the redemption value of the Convertible Notes from the draw down date to the earliest redemption date using the interest method. The change in fair value of the derivative liability of $179,030 was recorded in the consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The interest expenses recognized for accretion to the redemption value of the Convertible Notes was $232,628 for the three months ended March 31, 2010.

The grant value of the warrants issued in conjunction with the Convertible Note was treated as a commitment fee for obtaining the Convertible Notes, and therefore the value was recorded as deferred financing cost to be amortized over the period from grant date to the earliest redemption date of the Convertible Notes. For the three months ended March 31, 2010, $138,791 of deferred financing cost was amortized and charged to financial expenses. The Commitment Warrants were recorded as derivative liabilities in accordance with ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, because the exercise price of the Commitment Warrant is denominated in US dollars, which is a currency other than the Company’s functional currency. Changes in fair value of the Commitment Warrants (Note 14) for the three months ended March 31, 2010 was recorded in the consolidated statements of operations.

Note 11 – Taxation

On February 22, 2008, the Ministry of Finance (“MOF”) and the State Administration of Taxation (“SAT”) jointly issued Cai Shui [2008] Circular 1 (“Circular 1”). According to Article 4 of Circular 1, distributions of accumulated profits earned by a foreign investment enterprise ( “FIE”) prior to January 1, 2008 to foreign investor(s) in 2008 or after will be exempt from withholding tax (“WHT”) while distribution of the profit earned by an FIE after January 1, 2008 to its foreign investor(s) shall be subject to WHT at a rate up to 10% (lower rate is available under the protection of tax treaties). Since the Company intends to indefinitely reinvest its earnings to further expand the businesses in mainland China, the foreign invested enterprises do not intend to declare dividends to their immediate foreign holding companies in the foreseeable future. As a result, if any dividends are declared out of the cumulative retained earnings as of December 31, 2007, they should be exempt from WHT. Accumulated profit of non-US subsidiaries as of December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2010 were approximately $1,059,500 (RMB 7,844,000) and $1,085,939 (RMB 8,070,534), respectively, and they are considered to be indefinitely reinvested. Accordingly, no provision has been made. No dividend was declared out of the cumulative retained earnings as of December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2010.

No provision for taxation has been made for Hi-tech, CER Hong Kong, and CER Yangzhou for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2010, as those subsidiaries did not generate any taxable profits during the periods.

The Company is incorporated in the U.S. and incurred a net operating loss for income tax purposes for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2010. The net operating loss carry forwards for the U.S. income tax purposes is approximately $3,481,502 and $5,769,315 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2010, respectively, which may be available to reduce future years' taxable income. These carry forwards will expire, if not utilized, in 20 years. Management believes that the realization of the benefits arising from this loss are uncertain due to Company's limited operating history and continuing losses for United States income tax purposes. In the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company accrued deferred tax liability due to convertible note of $431,970 of which the balance as of December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2010 was $352,876 and $273,783 respectively. Therefore the Company offset equivalent deferred tax asset and deferred tax liability. Except for the above mentioned deferred tax asset, the Company has provided a 100% valuation allowance of deferred tax asset at December 31, 2009 and March 31 2010. Management reviews this valuation allowance periodically and makes adjustments as warranted.

The valuation allowances as of December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2010 were as follows:

	Amount
Balance of December 31, 2008	$	1,173,146
Increase		649,079

Note 12 –Earnings/ (Loss) per Share

The Company reports earnings per share in accordance with the provisions of ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share”. This standard requires presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share in conjunction with the disclosure of the methodology used in computing such earnings per share. Basic earnings/(losses) per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period under the two-class method. Diluted earnings per share takes into account the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised and converted into common stock. In computing the dilutive effect of convertible securities, the number of shares is adjusted for the additional common stock to be issued as if the convertible securities are converted at the beginning of the period (or at the time of issuance, if later). In computing the dilutive effect of options and warrants, the treasury method is used. Under this method, options and warrants are assumed to be exercised at the beginning of the period and as if funds obtained thereby were used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period.

The following is a reconciliation of the basic and diluted earnings per share computations for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2010:

	Three months ended March 31,
	2009			2010
	(Restated)
Numerator:
Net (loss)/income for the period		(984,162	)		188,579
Amount allocated to preferred stockholders		-			1,557
Net (loss)/income available to common stock holders – Basic and diluted		(984,162	)		187,022

Denominator:
Denominator for basic earnings per share -weighted average common stocks outstanding		29,920,145			30,734,134
Denominator for diluted earnings per share		29,920,145			30,734,134
Basic (loss)/earnings per share		(0.03	)		0.01
Diluted (loss)/earnings per share		(0.03	)		0.01

For the three months ended March 31, 2009, there was no diluted effect to loss per share due to the net loss incurred. The Company has warrants to purchase 1,968,561 shares of common stock and options to purchase 260,000 shares of common stock as of March 31, 2009 and these were not included in the calculation of dilutive earnings/(loss) per share because of the loss situation.

For the three months ended March 31, 2010, there was no diluted effect to earnings per share due to anti-dilutive effect. The Company has warrants to purchase 3,357,450 shares of common stock and options to purchase 560,000 shares of common stock as of March 31, 2010 were not included in the calculation of dilutive earnings/(loss) per share because of their anti-dilutive effect.

Note 13 – Convertible Preferred Stocks

Series A Convertible Preferred Stock

On April 15, 2008 and as a condition to closing of the Share Exchange, CER entered into Securities Purchase Agreements with 25 accredited investors pursuant to which CER issued and sold an aggregate of 7,874,241 units at a unit price of $1.08 (the "Financing"). Each unit consisted of one share of CER's Series A convertible preferred stock, par value of $0.001, and one warrant to purchase one-half of one share of CER's common stock at an exercise price of $1.29 per share. After the 1-for-2 reverse stock split conducted on April 16, 2008, the 7,874,241 shares of the Company’s Series A convertible preferred stock are convertible into 3,937,121 shares of common stock and the warrants are exercisable into 1,968,561 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $2.58 per share. The issuance costs of $1,859,902, including commissions, legal fees and transaction expenses were taken from the proceedings. The net proceeds were allocated between the Series A convertible preferred stocks and warrants based on their relative fair values. As of the closing date, the fair value of Series A convertible preferred stock is estimated at $1.68 where as the fair value of the warrants is estimated at $0.85. As a result, an aggregate amount of $5,307,539 was allocated to Series A convertible preferred stocks and $1,336,739 was allocated to the warrants. The fair value of the warrants was initially valued using the binomial model with assumptions such as, stock price, volatility, expected term, dividend, risk-free interest rate, etc.

The rights, preferences and privileges with respect to the Series A convertible preferred stock are as follows:

Voting

Holders of Series A convertible preferred stock are entitled to the number of votes equal to the number of shares of common stock into which such shares of preferred stock could be converted and to vote as a single class.

Dividends

Holders of Series A convertible preferred stock are entitled to dividends when dividends are declared for common stockholders. There have been no dividends declared to date.

Liquidation

In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the holders of Series A convertible preferred stock shall be entitled to receive the amount of the original issue price per share (as adjusted for the 1-for-2 reverse stock split) for each share of Series A convertible preferred stock, plus all declared and unpaid dividends.

Conversion

Each share of Series A convertible preferred stock is convertible into common stock on a one-for-one basis, anytime at the option of the holder. The current conversion price is $2.16 after taking into effect the 1-for-2 reverse stock split, and the conversion price is subject to adjustment in accordance with the anti-dilution clause.

No beneficial conversion feature charge was recognized for the issuance of Series A convertible preferred stock on the issuance date as the estimated fair value of the common stock is less than the conversion price on the date of issuance. The Company’s common stock was quoted on the OTCBB and has been publicly traded. However, with the high volatility and extremely low volume traded during the time when the Company entered into this Financing transaction, the fair value of the Company’s common stock as of April 15, 2008 was determined based on the Company’s estimate relied in part on a valuation report prepared by an independent valuer. The estimated fair value of the common stock was $1.55 per share.

Adjustment of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock Conversion Price and Warrant Exercise Price

In accordance to the anti-dilution clause of the afore-mentioned Financing, if the Company shall issue additional shares without consideration or for consideration per share less than the conversion price and/or the warrant exercise price immediately prior to the issuance, such conversion price and exercise price shall be adjusted.

For the three months ended March 31, 2010, 462,963 shares of Series A convertible preferred stock were converted to 245,098 shares of common stock.

No further beneficial conversion feature charge was recognized for the adjustment of conversion price and exercise price.

As of December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2010, the Company had 662,963 and 200,000 shares of Series A convertible preferred stock issued and outstanding, respectively.

Series B Convertible Preferred Stock

In connection with the Convertible Notes Agreement discussed in Note 10, the Company was required to issue to the Lender one hundred shares of Series B Preferred Stock, par value at $0.001. The Series B preferred stock provides voting rights and the right to appoint directors only in the event of defaults which equal or exceed $1,000,000 in the aggregate. The Series B preferred stock is senior to all other capital stock of the Company. The holder of the Series B preferred stock will not be entitled to any dividends, any liquidation preference of any kind, or any conversion right to convert the Series B preferred stock into the Company’s common stock.

Note 14 – Warrant and Derivative Liabilities

In June 2008, the FASB issued authoritative guidance on determining whether an instrument (or embedded feature) is indexed to an entity’s own stock. Under the authoritative guidance, effective January 1, 2009, instruments, which do not have fixed settlement provisions, are deemed to be derivative instruments. The conversion feature of the Company’s convertible note (described in Note 10), the related warrants and the warrants issued in connection with the Series A convertible preferred stock, do not have fixed settlement provisions because their conversion and exercise prices are denominated in US dollars, which is a currency other than the Company’s functional currency. Additionally, the Company was required to include the reset provision in order to protect the holders from potential dilution associated with future financings. In accordance with the FASB authoritative guidance, the conversion feature of the Convertible Notes was separated from the host contract (i.e. the Convertible Notes) and recognized as a derivative liability in the balance sheet, and the warrants issued in connection with the Convertible Notes and Series A preferred stock have been recorded as warranty liabilities in the balance sheet to be re-measured at the end of every reporting period with changes in fair values reported in the consolidated statements of income and other comprehensive income.

The derivative liabilities were valued using both the Black-Scholes and Binomial valuation techniques with the following assumptions:

	September 29,2009			December 31, 2009			March 31, 2010
	(Issuance date)
Conversion feature of Convertible Note:
Risk-free interest rate		0.95	%		1.14	%		0.72	%
Expected volatility		79.86	%		83.32	%		94.40	%

Expected dividend yield		-			-			-

Fair Value:
Conversion feature	$	1,270,500			871,000			559,500

We calculated the derivative liability on exchange rate based on the following key assumptions:

	March 31,2010
Estimated forward rate		6.8263-6.4457
Discount rate		0.25%-1.68	%
Discount factor		1-0.95

Fair value	$	132,470

Fair Value:
Warrants issued in connection with Convertible Note	$	1,387,912			666,793			422,384

Warrants issued in connection with Series A convertible preferred stocks:

	December 31, 2009			March 31, 2010
Number of shares exercisable		1,968,561			1,968,561
Risk-free interest rate		1.81	%		1.61	%
Expected volatility		79	%		81	%
Expected life (in years)	3.29 years			3.04 years
Expected dividend yield		-			-
Fair Value:
Warrants issued in connection with Series A convertible preferred stock	$	703,850		$	432,073

(a)

The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury securities with compatible life terms.

(b)

Due to the short trading history of the Company’s stock, the Company uses the volatility of comparable guideline companies to estimate volatility.

(c)

The expected life of the conversion feature of the notes was based on the term of the notes and the expected life of the warrants was determined by the expiration date of the warrants.

(d)

The expected dividend yield was based on the fact that the Company has not paid dividends to common shareholders in the past and does not expect to pay dividends to common shareholders in the future.

The warrants issued in connection with the Series A convertible preferred stock were originally recorded at their relative fair value as an increase in additional paid-in capital. Upon the implementation of the FASB authoritative guidance in the first quarter of 2009, such warrants were reclassified to derivative liabilities at fair value on January 1, 2009. The change in fair value is reported as a cumulative change in accounting principles. The cumulative effect on the accounting for the warrants issued in connection with Series A preferred stock at January 1, 2009 is as follows:

	Additional Paid-in Capital				Warrant Liability
Warrants issued in connection with Series A convertible preferred stocks			1,524,268				(1,524,268	)

Note 15 - Stock-Based Compensation

Common Stock

On December 7, 2009, the Board approved the issuance of 700,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to a consulting company in exchange for consulting service received for the period of July 1, 2009 through December 31, 2009. The value of those shares issued is $840,000, which was measured based on the fair value of the Company’s common stock at December 7, 2009.

Stock Options

On September 18, 2008, the Company appointed three new independent directors and granted them stock options to purchase an aggregate of 260,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The options will vest and become exercisable in eight equal installments evenly spread out during the two year period beginning from October 1, 2008. On June 24, 2009, the Company appointed another independent director and granted him stock options to purchase 500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The options will vest and become exercisable in eight equal installments evenly spread out during the three year period beginning from July 1, 2009. On September 7, 2009, the Company appointed another independent director and granted her a stock option to purchase 60,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The options will vest and become exercisable in eight equal installments evenly spread out during the two year period beginning from October 1, 2009. Unvested options shall be terminated and forfeited upon the termination of a holder’s director status.

The Company used the Black-Scholes Model to value the options at the time they were granted. The following table summarizes the assumptions used in the Black-Scholes Model when calculating the fair value of the options at the grant dates:

Grant Date	Number of Options		Expected Term (Years)		Exercise Price		Expected Volatility			Dividend Yield		Risk Free Interest Rate			Grant Date Fair Value
18-Sep-08		260,000		1.81	$	2.90		79.00	%		-		1.45	%	$	311,350
24-Jun-09		500,000		1.81	$	1.58		92.00	%		-		1.01	%	$	370,650
1-Oct-09		60,000		1.81	$	1.22		94.00	%		-		0.84	%	$	34,926

Since the Company does not have sufficient applicable history of employee stock options activity, the Company uses the simplified method to estimate the life of the options by taking the sum of the vesting period and the contractual life and then calculating the midpoint which is the estimated term of the options.

For the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2010, the Company recognized $38,919 and, $35,253 compensation expenses in the form of options, respectively. Following is a summary of the status of options outstanding at March 31, 2010:

Outstanding Options						Exercisable Options
				Average						Average
				remaining		Average				remaining
Exercise				contractual		exercise				contractual
price		Number		term		Price		Number		term

$	1.22		60,000		2.75	$	1.22		15,000		2.75
$	1.58		500,000		2.50	$	1.58		125,000		2.5
Total			560,000						140,000

Following is a summary of the option activity:

On July 20, 2009, the Company terminated the service contract with a consultant. As a result, the options granted to him on September 18, 2008 to purchase 25,000 shares of the Company’s common stock expired on October 21, 2009.

In September 2009, another consultant gave up the options to purchase 50,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.

On September 7, 2009, one of the Company’s independent directors resigned from the Company’s Board of Directors, effective October 1, 2009. The options granted to her on September 18, 2008 to purchase 50,000 shares of the Company’s common stock expired on December 31, 2009.

On December 31, 2009, two of the Company’s independent directors resigned from the Company’s Board of Directors, effective January 1, 2010. The options granted to them on September 18, 2008 to purchase 210,000 shares of the Company’s common stock expired on March 31, 2010.

Note 17 – Related Party Transactions

In 2005, Shanghai Engineering entered into agreements with the son of Mr. Qinghuan Wu to lease the office at Quyang Road, Hongkou District, Shanghai for 5 years. For the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2010, the Company incurred $13,194 and $13,203, respectively, as rental expense to Mr. Qinghuan Wu's son.

On February 1, 2010, Mr. Qinghuan Wu, arranged for a loan from Haide Engineering (Hong Kong) Limited (“Haide”), a company controlled by Mr. Qinghuan Wu, to lend to the Paying Agent the sum of $1,000,000. The proceeds of this loan will be forwarded to CER Yangzhou for additional paid-in capital which will help fund the new plant being built in China. The loan is an interest only loan, bearing interest at the annual rate of 9.5%, and is unsecured; the Company will pay the sum of $23,750 at the end of every three calendar months. The principal is due in full on January 30, 2012. The loan is unsecured and there are no guarantees of the interest or principal. Shanghai Engineering has subordinated its loan to those under the Loan Agreements.

Note 18 – Retirement Benefits

As stipulated by the relevant laws and regulations applicable to enterprises operating in the PRC, the Company and its PRC subsidiaries and affiliates are required to maintain a defined contribution retirement plan for all of its employees who are residents of the PRC. The Company contributes to a statutory government retirement plan approximately 22% of the base salary of each of its employees and has no further obligations for the actual pension payments or post-retirement benefits beyond the annual contributions. The statutory government retirement plan is responsible for the entire pension obligations payable for all past and present employees.

The Company made contributions of $41,860 and $29,798 for employment benefits, including pension payments for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2010, respectively.

Note 19 – Statutory Reserve

As stipulated by the relevant laws and regulations applicable to enterprises operating in the PRC, the Company and its PRC subsidiaries and affiliates are required to make annual appropriations to a statutory surplus reserve fund. Specifically, the Company is required to deposit 10% of its profits after taxes, as determined in accordance with the PRC accounting standards applicable to the Company, to a statutory surplus reserve until such reserve reaches 50% of the registered capital of the Company.

The transfer to this reserve must be made before distribution of any dividend to shareholders. For the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company transferred $0, because its China subsidiaries incurred losses in 2009. Statutory reserve amounted to $132,802 as of December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2010.

The surplus reserve fund is non-distributable other than during liquidation and can be used to fund previous years' losses, if any, and may be utilized for business expansion or converted into share capital by issuing new shares to existing shareholders in proportion to their shareholding or by increasing the par value of the shares currently held by them, provided that the remaining reserve balance after such issue is not less than 50% of the registered capital. The remaining required contributions to the statutory reserves required were approximately $12,718,305 as of March 31, 2010.

Note 20 – Commitments and Contingencies

Capital contribution to CER Shanghai and CER Yangzhou

As described in Note 1, CER Shanghai has invested total registered capital of $5,000,000 as of November 4, 2010. CER Yangzhou has registered capital of $20,000,000 of which $7,500,000 has been invested before March 31, 2010; the remaining capital is scheduled to be injected before August 28, 2011.

Lease and Operation Commitments

According to the renewed and amended Leasing and Operation Agreement (Note 1) entered by Shanghai Engineering and Shanghai Si Fang, Shanghai Engineering has recorded a lease expense and integrated management fee in the amount of $215,477 and $124,989 under cost of revenue and general administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2010, respectively.

Minimum future payments under Lease and Operation Agreement are as follow:

		Lease				Non-lease				Total
Three Months ended March 31, 2010		$	198,927				176,040				374,967

Rental commitments

On January 1, 2009, Shanghai Engineering renewed the lease agreement with the son of Mr. Qinghuan Wu to continue the lease of the current office space (approximately 375 square meters) for one year until December 31, 2010 and the monthly rental was $4,398, which is approximately the market price in Shanghai. After moving into the new office space in Zhangjiang (as described below), this lease agreement will be terminated as of March 31 2011, when we move to our new building in Zhangjiang. For the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2010, the company incurred $13,194 and $13,203, respectively.

On March 19, 2009, CER Shanghai entered into an office lease agreement with Shanghai Zhangjiang Integrated Circuit Industrial Zone Development Co., Ltd., to lease an office space (approximately 2,664 square meters) in the Shanghai Zhangjiang Hi-tech Park (“Zhangjiang”), which is to be the new office space and the design and engineering center of the Company in China. The lease is for two years from March 1, 2009 through February 28, 2011. The Company is also required to make a security deposit of approximately $292,613 in addition to the annual lease payments. Then rental expenses have been recognized on a straight-line basis. CER Shanghai also has an option to purchase the office space. If CER Shanghai exercises the purchase option, all the lease payments and the deposit payment made can be credited against the purchase price and counted as a partial purchase payment. The Company has paid the first year’s rental fee in the amount of $146,304 and the security deposit of $292,613 in April 2009, and has also paid the second year’s rental fee in the amount of $851,525 in February 2010.The Company has amortized the total rental fee using straight-line method over the 2-year lease period. For the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2010, the rental expense was $41,602 and $124,805, respectively. Management is planning to exercise the option to purchase the building.

The Company has paid all the lease payments under this lease, therefore there is no future lease payment under this lease as of December 31 2010.

Commitments related to CER Yangzhou

On August 18, 2009, CER Hong Kong entered into a series of contracts with Yangzhou (Yizheng) Automobile Industrial Park Administration Committee, a government entity of the City of Yangzhou, Jiangsu Province, China, to acquire a tract of land on which the Company plans to build a new manufacturing facility. The new plant is planned as a world-class, state-of-the-art facility and will be dedicated to developing and manufacturing large-sized and sophisticated waste heat recovery systems and other related energy efficiency equipment.

Further to support CER’s waste heat recovery system development, the government will provide various preferential policies, including a government research and development grant at $2.44 million, which is recorded as other income, to be available to CER over time. CER is obligated to establish a foreign investment enterprise for its investment, to meet certain minimum capital levels, to make certain minimum levels of investment in the plant (Approximately $293,255, or equivalent to RMB 2 million, per Chinese acre, to be made by August 2011, otherwise either a portion of the land would need to be returned or the deficient investment would need to be made), and to satisfy established construction schedules (i.e., start construction within 6 months upon obtaining the land). If construction does not start in one year, or the area developed would be less than 1/3 of the land, or the investment is less than 1/4 of the proposed investment, or the Company stops the development without approval, then an unused land fee would be imposed and part of the land unused for over 2 years would need to be returned.

Note 21 – Subsequent events

In conjunction with the preparation of these financial statements, an evaluation of subsequent events was performed through March 3, 2011, which is the date of the financial statements were issued.

On December 9, 2010, CER Yangzhou entered into a three-year, loan facility with the Bank of China, Yizheng Branch. The facility is for RMB 30,000,000 (approximately $4,500,000). The funds may be used either as a short term loan or for trade financing and similar purposes. Any amounts due under the loan are repayable on November 24, 2013. The loan has been guaranteed by each of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and a director, two of the Company’s subsidiaries, CER Shanghai, Shanghai Engineering and Yizheng Auto Industrial Park Investment and Development Co., Ltd. The Company has also pledged the land use right in Yizheng. The Company has drawn RMB 21,000,000 (approximately $3,150,000) under the facility as a short-term loan, due in one year, which amount carries an annual interest rate of 5.838%. These funds will be used for working capital.

On December 31, 2010, the Company entered into a loan agreement with the lender (Note 9) to replace and continue the prior lending arrangement which was entered into on March 21, 2009, to extend the term until which the principal amount of $5,000,000 is due to September 29, 2012, and to change certain of the terms of the loan. The aggregate principal amount of the loan extension is $5,000,000, and bears interest at the annual rate of 15.1%, calculated on a monthly compounded basis. The principal and accrued interest are due September 29, 2012. The loan may be prepaid by the Company, without penalty. The loan agreement provides for the typical events of default (which includes default in payment of any part of the principal of or interest, performance or compliance with the collateral agreement, assets attached or seized by any third person and or any part of the loan agreement being declared null and void or its enforceability being challenged), including a cross default clause, and the Company has made various representations and given various covenants to the lender which includes the audit of the Company’s annual financial statements and review of the interim financial statements as well as the timely filing of such statements. In the event of a default, the lender would have the right to exercise the rights under the Class B Preferred Stock that was issued in connection with the 2009 loan, which will continue with respect to the new loan. The lender continues to have a right of first refusal with respect to future debt and equity fundings and a right to consent to certain debt and equity fundings by the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates. As a guarantee of the payments under the loan extension, Mr. Wu, the Chief Executive Officer of the Company and the principal officer of the Company pledged 8,000,006 shares for the repayment of the principal due under the loan agreement. The pledge will only take effect when the shares are released from the current pledge under another loan entered into by the Company. Additionally, since the loan is fixed in United States dollars, the lender will receive compensation for the value of the difference in the Renmenbi/US Dollar exchange rate between September 29, 2011, and the payment date, provided the Renmenbi exchange rate increases against the US dollar, times the amount of being paid.

Item 2 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Overview

On January 24, 2008, we entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the "Share Exchange Agreement") with Poise Profit International, Ltd. ("Poise Profit") and the shareholders of Poise Profit. Pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement, we acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Poise Profit's common stock in exchange for the issuance of 41,514,179 (pre reverse split) shares of our common stock to the shareholders of Poise Profit. The share exchange (the "Share Exchange") transaction was consummated on April 15, 2008.

As a result of the closing of the Share Exchange on April 15, 2008, our new business operations consist of those of Poise Profit's Chinese subsidiary, Hi-tech, which were subsequently transferred to CER (Hong Kong) Holdings Limited (“CER Hong Kong”). CER Hong Kong is principally engaged in designing, marketing, licensing, fabricating, implementing and servicing industrial energy recovery systems capable of capturing industrial waste energy for reuse in industrial processes or to produce electricity and thermal power.

Poise Profit, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, was incorporated on November 23, 2007 under the laws of the British Virgin Islands. Poise Profit, in turn, owns 100% of the issued and outstanding equity interests in Hi-tech and CER Hong Kong. Historically, all of our operations were conducted through Hi-tech via contractual arrangements with affiliated Chinese entities, but we are in the process of transferring our assets and operations from Hi-tech to CER Hong Kong and its wholly-owned subsidiary CER Energy Recovery (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. ("CER Shanghai"). As part of our reorganization, CER Hong Kong was incorporated on August 13, 2008 under the laws of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, China and was originally jointly owned by Mr. Qinghuan Wu, one of our directors and our Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, and his spouse, Mrs. Jialing Zhou, who is one of our directors. On December 3, 2008, Mr. Qinghuan Wu and Mrs. Zhou transferred ownership of CER Hong Kong to Poise Profit. CER Shanghai was incorporated on November 11, 2008 as a wholly foreign-owned enterprise in Shanghai, China. After our reorganization is complete, CER Shanghai will be our primary operating entity in China and CER Hong Kong will be our primary holding entity holding all equity interests in our Chinese subsidiaries, including CER Shanghai. While we are gradually transferring our current assets and operations to CER Shanghai, we plan that CER Shanghai will enter into the majority of all new business contracts.

Before December 3, 2008, all of our operations were conducted through Hi-tech and its affiliated companies. Hi-Tech was engaged in the marketing and sale of energy recovery systems which were designed, manufactured and installed by affiliated companies. Hi-tech had entered into contractual relationships with two entities incorporated in Shanghai, China: Shanghai Hai Lu Kun Lun Hi-tech Engineering Co., Ltd. ("Shanghai Engineering") and Shanghai Xin Ye Environmental Protection Engineering Technology Co., Ltd. ("Shanghai Environmental"). Each of Shanghai Engineering and Shanghai Environmental was considered a "variable interest entity" and its financial information was consolidated with Hi-tech's pursuant to the Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 810-10. Hi-tech entered into contractual relationships with Shanghai Engineering and Shanghai Environmental to comply with Chinese laws regulating foreign-ownership of Chinese companies. Shanghai Engineering is engaged in the business of designing, manufacturing and installing energy recovery systems. All manufacturing is done by Vessel Works Division pursuant to a cooperative manufacturing agreement between Shanghai Engineering and Vessel Works Division's parent, Shanghai Si Fang Boiler Factory ("Shanghai Si Fang"), as further described below. Vessel Works Division holds important permits for the manufacturing and installation of boilers used in our energy recovery systems. Shanghai Environmental is not an operating company but it served in the past as a vehicle for arranging sales and maximizing tax benefits. We no longer use Shanghai Environmental for these purposes and intend to start the process to dissolve Shanghai Environmental in 2011. Shanghai Engineering is owned jointly by Mr. Qinghuan Wu, our Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, and his spouse, Mrs. Jialing Zhou, who is one of our directors. Shanghai Environmental is wholly-owned by Mr. Qinghuan Wu.

All of Shanghai Engineering’s manufacturing activities are conducted through a Leasing and Operation Agreement, a form of cooperative manufacturing agreement, originally effective as of May 1, 2003 and subsequently renewed and amended with a state-owned enterprise, Shanghai Si Fang. Pursuant to the agreement, Shanghai Si Fang leases certain land use rights, buildings and fixed assets (lease elements) in one of its subsidiaries, Vessel Works Division, and provides management services and licenses the “Si Fang” brand and manufacturing license (non-lease elements) of Vessel Works Division to Shanghai Engineering. Because the arrangement contains both the lease and non-lease elements, the amount of quarterly payment is allocated between the lease and non-lease deliverables. The lease elements are classified and accounted for as operating leases and the lease expense is recorded on a straight-line basis. The non-lease elements are accounted for as prepayment for management and licensing fees and the payment is amortized on a straight-line basis over each contractual period

In August 2009, CER Hong Kong entered into a series of contracts with Yangzhou (Yizheng) Automobile Industrial Park Administration Committee, a government entity of the City of Yangzhou, Jiangsu Province, China, to acquire a tract of land on which CER Hong Kong plans to build a new manufacturing facility. The plant is currently under construction, and is expected to be completed in January 2011. Once the plant is operational, we intend to transfer the production function of Vessel Works Division to CER Yangzhou.

Energy is a major strategic issue affecting the development of the global and Chinese economy. The Chinese government has committed to adjusting the economic structure and changing the mode of economic growth in order to encourage the use of more advanced and more environment-friendly technologies. Also, the Chinese government has been promoting the development of recycling and the circulated use of resources by encouraging enterprises to engage in the energy recovery industry. Various government issued documents indicate the government’s plan to promote the use of energy saving and recycling equipment and systems.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

While our significant accounting policies are more fully described in Note 3 to our Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we believe that the accounting policies described below are the most critical to aid you in fully understanding and evaluating this management discussion and analysis.

Fair Value Measurements

Level 1	Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. Fair valued assets and liabilities that are generally included in this category are assets comprised of cash, accounts and notes receivable, and liabilities comprised of bank loans, accounts payable, convertible notes, accrued liabilities and other payables. As of December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2010, the carrying values of these assets and liabilities approximated their fair values.

Level 2	Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the assets or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instruments. At December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2010, the Company did not have any fair value assets or liabilities classified as Level 2.

Level 3

Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value. Inputs reflected management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Consideration is given to the risk inherent in the valuation technique and the risk inherent in the inputs to the model.

The following table presents information about the company’s financial liabilities classified as Level 3 as of March 31, 2010.

			Balance as of March 31, 2010
	Carrying		Fair Value Measurements
	Value		Using Fair Value Hierarchy
			Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Derivative liability, current (Note 14)	$	412,220		-		-	$	412,220
Derivative liability (Note 14)	$	279,750		-		-	$	279,750
Warrant liability (Note 14)	$	854,461		-		-	$	854,461

A summary of changes in Level 3 derivative and warrant liabilities for the years ended December 31, 2009 and for the three months ended March 31, 2010 were as follows:

Balance at January 1, 2009	$	1,524,268
Warrants issued at issuance of convertible notes (Note 14)		1,387,912
Derivative liability at issuance of convertible notes (Note 14)		1,270,500
Change in fair value of warrant liability recognized in earnings		(1,539,233	)
Change in fair value of derivative liability recognized in earnings		(399,500	)
Balance at December 31, 2009		2,243,947
Derivative liability at issuance of long term loan (Note 9)		132,470
Change in fair value of warrant liability recognized in earnings		(518,486	)
Change in fair value of derivative liabilities recognized in earnings		(311,500	)
Balance at March 31, 2010	$	1,546,431

Liability for Warrants

Effective January 1, 2009, the Company adopted the provisions of an accounting standard regarding instruments that are Indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock. This accounting standard specifies that a contract that would otherwise meet the definition of a derivative but is both (a) indexed to the Company’s own stock and (b) classified in stockholders’ equity in the statement of financial position would not be considered a derivative financial instrument. It provides a new two-step model to be applied in determining whether a financial instrument or an embedded feature is indexed to an issuer’s own stock and thus able to qualify for the scope exception within the standards.

Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities

In accordance with the FASB’s Interpretation regarding the consolidation of variable interest entities, variable interest entities are generally entities that lack sufficient equity to finance their activities without additional financial support from other parties or whose equity holders lack adequate decision making ability. Each variable interest entity with which the Company is affiliated must be evaluated to determine who is the primary beneficiary of the risks and rewards of ownership of the variable interest entity. The primary beneficiary is required to consolidate the variable interest entity's financial information for financial reporting purposes.

We have concluded that Shanghai Engineering and Shanghai Environmental are variable interest entities and that Poise Profit and CER Hong Kong are the primary beneficiaries. Under the requirements of FASB’s accounting standard, Poise Profit and CER Hong Kong consolidated the financial statements of Shanghai Engineering and Shanghai Environmental. As all companies are under common control (see Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements), the consolidated financial statements have been prepared as if the arrangements by which these entities became variable interest entities had occurred retroactively. We have eliminated inter-company items from our consolidated financial statements.

All of Shanghai Engineering’s manufacturing activities are conducted through a Leasing and Operation Agreement, a form of cooperative manufacturing agreement, originally effective as of May 1, 2003 and subsequently renewed and amended with a state-owned enterprise, Shanghai Si Fang. Pursuant to the agreement, Shanghai Si Fang leases certain land use rights, buildings and fixed assets (lease elements) in one of its subsidiaries, Vessel Works Division, and provides management services and licenses the “Si Fang” brand and manufacturing license (non-lease elements) of Vessel Works Division to Shanghai Engineering. Because the arrangement contains both the lease and non-lease elements, the amount of quarterly payments is allocated between the lease and non-lease deliverables. The lease elements are classified and accounted for as operating leases and the lease expense is recorded on a straight-line basis. The non-lease elements are accounted for as prepayment for management and licensing fees and the payment is amortized on a straight-line basis over each contractual period.

The arrangement, however, may result in Shanghai Engineering having variable interests in Shanghai Si Fang, but as Shanghai Si Fang is a state-owned enterprise that has substantive operations other than this lease and operation arrangement, Shanghai Engineering is not the primary beneficiary of Shanghai Si Fang.

Revenue Recognition

The Company derives revenues principally from

(a)

Sales of energy recovery systems, and

(b)

Provision of design services, and

(c)

Revenue by the above categories for three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2010 are summarized as follows:

	Three months ended March 31,
	2009			2010
Revenue:
Product		$	1,310,027		$	1,410,493
Service			-			-
EPC contracts			-			2,683,285
Totals		$	1,310,027		$	4,093,778

Classification of Current/Non-Current Receivables

In view of the global economic slowdown, we have reviewed our receivable balances and reassessed each balance and its collectability during the forthcoming 12 months. We have reclassified certain of these outstanding balances to non-current assets where we determined that there is no certainty of collection within the next 12 months. We intend to closely monitor our receivables and focus on increasing collections over the next quarter.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2010, the FASB issued new accounting guidance related to the disclosure requirements for fair value measurements and provides clarification for existing disclosures requirements. More specifically, this update will require (a) an entity to disclose separately the amounts of significant transfers in and out of Levels 1 and 2 fair value measurements and to describe the reasons for the transfers; and (b) information about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements to be presented separately (i.e. present the activity on a gross basis rather than net) in the reconciliation for fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 inputs). This guidance clarifies existing disclosure requirements for the level of disaggregation used for classes of assets and liabilities measured at fair value and require disclosures about the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements using Level 2 and Level 3 inputs. The new disclosures and clarifications of existing disclosure are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosure requirements for related to the purchases, sales, issuances and settlements in the rollforward activity of Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosure requirements are effective for fiscal years ending after December 31, 2010. The Company does not expect the adoption of the updated guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Revenues. Revenue was $4,093,778 for the three months ended March 31, 2010, as compared to $1,310,027 for the three months ended March 31, 2009, an increase of $2,783,751 or 212.5%. This increase was mainly due to the increase in the overall amount of revenue under our outstanding contracts and the increase of the number of new contracts. In recent years, the State Council and the National Development and Reform Commission have promulgated a two-pronged strategy of managing China’s growing energy needs. On the supply side, there has been a noticeable push towards renewable energy sources. On the demand side, various plans and incentives have been put in place to reduce energy demand such as through boosting energy efficiency. In 2009 and 2010, the State Council and various bodies issued a number of notices promoting clean energy use in industries and the recycling of waste heat. In January 2010, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology also announced a Rmb 5 billion plan to install waste heat power generators in 37 iron and steel enterprises over a three-year period. In February 2010, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology further proposed that the authorities intend to promote the installation of waste heat power generators to 95% of new dry cement production lines. The total required investment is Rmb12.7 billion over four years from 2010 to 2013.

An analysis of the revenues is as follows:

The average sales revenue recognized per product contract increased by $47,935 from $187,147 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 to $235,082 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 while the number of product contracts we completed did not change. This is mainly because of generally higher margin we get, especially on direct export sales, which have higher margins, in the first three months of 2010.

In the mean time, the Company's strategy is to shift its focus away from product sales and to re-direct its energies and resources to EPC contracts. In early 2010, we have started 4 EPC contracts while there were no such EPC contracts for the three months ended March 31, 2009.

With the recovery of the economy and the Chinese government’s emphasis on energy efficiency and pollution reduction, it is anticipated that the business will continue to grow in the future periods. We believe we are among the few companies in the industry with the necessary design and engineering capability to satisfy the growing market demand for larger energy recovery systems. Further, we have been expanding our marketing efforts to win new contracts by attending trade events both inside China and overseas, hosting focused industry seminars, increasing selling efforts to repeat customers and actively pursuing new customer prospects, and partnering with large engineering houses and foreign industry leaders. We are also building a new state-of-the-art manufacturing facility expected to be partly completed and in operation in January 2011, which is designed to expand our production capacity and solve the capacity limitations we experience at our current leased facility. The new plant with its higher efficiency and greater capacity, once in place, is expected to enable us to increase our sales and gross margin.

Cost of Revenues. Cost of revenues increased to $3,476,202 for the three months ended March 31, 2010, as compared to $1,185,667 for the three months ended March 31, 2009, an increase of $2,290,535, or 193.2%. As a percentage of revenues, cost of sales decreased from 90.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2009 to 84.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2010, a decrease of 5.6%. The absolute increase is consistent with the increase of revenue while the relative decrease is due to the significant increase of the per unit cost for overhead fixed costs in 2009 due to lower volume of product revenue along with the prices of main raw materials, such as steel, falling in 2010. Furthermore, with the worldwide economy recovering, the finished products and recent EPC under construction contracts are able to obtain higher margins in 2010 compared with the same period of 2009.

Gross Profit. Gross profit was $617,576 for the three months ended March 31, 2010, as compared to $124,359 for the three months ended March 31, 2009, an increase of $493,217 or 396.6%. The higher gross profit is mainly due to the better margins of delivered products in 2010.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $1,156,089 for the three months ended March 31, 2010, as compared to $948,387 for the three months ended March 31, 2009, an increase of $207,702 or 21.9%. Selling, general and administrative expenses, as a percentage of revenue, decreased from 72.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2009 to 28.2% for the same period in 2010, a decrease of 44.2%. This increase is mainly due to following reasons: Firstly, transportation expenses increased by $91,645, or 142%, resulting from the increase of sales quantity. Secondly, the Company signed a rental agreement with Shanghai Zhangjiang IC industrial zone development Co., Ltd. and as a result, since March 2009, the monthly rental charged increased by about $41,500. Thirdly, the expansion of CER’s business and construction of the CER Yangzhou production base resulted in more general operation expenses being incurred.

Loss from Operations. Loss from operations totaled $538,513 for the three months ended March 31, 2010, as compared to loss of $824,028 for the same period in 2009, a decrease of $285,515. The decrease is mainly attributable to increase in revenue and gross profit.

Other Income/(Expense). For the three months ended March 31, 2010, the Company incurred other income of $894,331 as compared to other expenses of $242,411 for the three months ended March 2009, an absolute difference of $1,136,742. Other income for the period ended March 31, 2010 consisted primary of $829,986 of change in fair value of warrants and derivative liabilities, and $728,713 of non-operating income, offset by $664,368 in interest expenses, all as further described below.

Change in fair value of warrants and derivative liabilities - This resulted from the valuation of warrants and derivative liabilities. The $1,003,853 absolute gain over the prior period is mainly due to the decrease of the Company’s stock price.

Non-operating Income, net - Non-operating income for the three months ended March 31, 2010 mainly consisted of subsidy income of CER Yangzhou on research and development fund from Yizheng industrial park.

Interest Income/(Expenses )- Interest expenses were $664,368 for the three months ended March 31, 2010, as compared to interest income of $1,194 for the three months ended March 31, 2009, an absolute difference of $665,562. This change is mainly due to interest expenses of $118,967 incurred in connection with the issuance of convertible notes and of $110,863 in connection with the $4,000,000 loan. In addition, the accretion on the convertible notes of $232,628 and an amortized long term deferred financial cost of $204,469 were also charged as financial expenses.

Benefit/(provision) for Income Taxes. The normal applicable income tax rate for the operating entities in China is 25%. Pursuant to the PRC income tax laws, Shanghai Engineering is subject to enterprise income tax at a statutory rate of 15% as a high technology entity. For the three months ended March 31, 2010, the Company incurred $167,239 of income tax provision, as compared to income tax benefit of $82,276 for the three months ended March 31, 2009, an absolute change of $249,515. This change mainly resulted from income incurred by CER Yangzhou. Most of our Chinese entities did not incur a profit for the three months ended March 31, 2010 while our Yangzhou received subsidy income which made the entity subject to income tax. On the other hand, we provided a 100% valuation allowance of deferred tax asset at December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2010 due to the net loss incurred by our Vessel Work Division. In addition, the absolute difference arising from derivative liabilities is much larger in the three months ended March 31, 2010, compared with the same period of 2009.

Net (Loss)/Income. Net income was $188,579 for the three months ended March 31, 2010, as compared to a net loss of $984,162 for the three months ended March 31, 2009, an increase of $1,172,741, or 119.2%. It is mainly due to higher revenue and gross profit generated in the first three months of 2010, and a gain of $ 829,986 from the change in fair value of warrants and derivative liabilities in the first three months of 2010 due the decrease of the Company’s common share price, as well as other non-operating income of $728,713.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal sources of liquidity have been cash generated from operations, the proceeds from the sale of equity to investors and borrowings from banks and other lenders. Our principal uses of cash have been to finance working capital, facility expansion and other capital expenditures.

It is our practice to carefully monitor the state of our business, cash requirements and capital structure. We believe that funds generated from our operations and available from our credit facilities will be sufficient to fund current business operations over at least the next twelve months. Notwithstanding our resources for operations on a going forward basis at current operating levels, we will need capital for our expansion plans, including funding for the building of our proposed new plant. To improve our cash and cash requirement position, we are making efforts to improve the collection of receivables, examine costs in an attempt to control or reduce expenses and use non-cash compensation, such as stock grants, where appropriate, all of which should have a positive effect on our working capital and increase our cash resources.

Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities was $2,256,991 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 compared with net cash used in operating activities of $1,660,321 for the three months ended March 31, 2009. The increase of cash used in operating activities was due to an increase in advance payments made in 2010 as compared to in 2009 attributable to an increase of EPC contracts for purchasing raw materials.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $769,577 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 compared to net cash used in investing activities of $48,248 for the three months ended March 31, 2009. The change was due to capital expenditures for the construction of CER Yangzhou (as described below).

On August 18, 2009, CER Hong Kong entered into a series of contracts with Yangzhou (Yizheng) Automobile Industrial Park Administration Committee, a government entity of the City of Yangzhou, Jiangsu Province, China, to acquire a tract of land on which CER Hong Kong plans to build a new manufacturing facility. The Company has been following the construction schedules and fulfilling the investment requirement.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities was $3,762,795 for the three months ended March 31,2010 compared to net cash used in financing activities of $381,420 for the three months ended March 31, 2009, an increase of $3,381,375. This is due to proceeds received from long-term loans in the amount $4,642,995, and offset in part by a repayment of a short-term bank loan of $880,200 in early 2010.

Capital Resources

On February 1, 2010, the Company entered into a series of agreements for a loan arrangement with two lenders (the “Loan Agreements”). The proceeds of this loan are primarily for the construction of a new plant in China. The aggregate principal amount of the loan under the two Loan Agreements is $4,000,000. The principal is due on January 15, 2013, and bears interest at the annual rate of 15.1%. As security for these Loan Agreements, Mr. Qinghuan Wu has pledged 8,000,006 shares of common stock of the Company, which shares will be held in escrow for the benefit of all the Lenders.

Additionally, since the repayment amount is fixed in United States dollars, the lenders will receive shares of common stock on each principal payment date in that number of shares representing the value of the difference in the RMB/US Dollar exchange rate between February 1, 2010, and the payment date, provided the RMB exchange rate increases against the US dollar, times the amount of principal being repaid, divided by the closing price of the common stock on the repayment date.

Contemporaneously with the funding of the Loan Agreements, on February 1, 2010, Mr. Qinghuan Wu, arranged for Haide Engineering (Hong Kong) Limited (“Haide”), a company that Mr. Qinghuan Wu controls, to lend to CER Hong Kong the sum of $1,000,000. The loan is an interest only loan, bearing interest at the annual rate of 9.5%, interest payable quarterly. The principal is due in full on January 30, 2012. The loan is unsecured and there are no guarantees of the interest or principal. CER Hong Kong has subordinated its loan to those under the Loan Agreements.

During the first quarter of 2010, the Company continued to establish and test the effectiveness of the relevant policies and procedures to strengthen the fraud risk assessment and anti-fraud system. The Company continually seeks to make other changes in the internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Some of such changes described above were initially implemented during the first quarter ended March 31, 2010.
