Overview of Our Business

We are an integrated food manufacturing company headquartered in Shandong Province, China. We develop, manufacture and sell the following types of food products:

• chestnut products,
• convenience foods (including ready-to-cook, or RTC, foods, ready-to-eat, or RTE, foods and meals ready-to-eat, or MRE); and
• frozen food products.

We conduct our production activities in China. Our products are sold in 26 provinces and administrative regions in China and 42 foreign countries. We derive most of our revenues from sales in China, Japan and South Korea. In 2010, our primary strategy was to expand our brand equity in the Chinese market for our convenience food products while maintaining the steady growth and brand recognition for our chestnut products and frozen products, which we will continue to execute in 2011. In addition, we are working to expand our marketing efforts in Asia, Europe, the Middle East and North America. We currently have limited sales and marketing activity in the United States, although our long-term plan is to significantly expand our activities there.

Organizational Structure

ALN is a Nevada corporation that was incorporated on February 4, 1986 and was formerly known as Millennium Quest, Inc. Prior to May 3, 2007, when ALN completed a recapitalization, or reverse merger, with ILH, ALN did not engage in active business operations other than to search for a potential acquisition target. Effective November 16, 2009, ALN reincorporated in Nevada from Delaware.

ALN owns 100% of ILH. ILH wholly owns two Chinese operating subsidiaries, Luotian Lorain and Junan Hongrun, directly. Junan Hongrun, in turn, wholly owns Dongguan Lorain. In addition, together with Junan Hongrun, ILH wholly owns Beijing Lorain, Shandong Greenpia, and owns approximately 80% of Shandong Lorain (Shandong Economic Development Investment Co. Ltd. owns approximately 20%). We sometimes refer to our six Chinese operating subsidiaries throughout this annual report on Form 10-K as the Lorain Group Companies. Below is an organizational chart of ALN, ILH and the Lorain Group Companies:

Products

Our products are categorized into the following three segments:

• chestnut products,
• convenience food products, and
• frozen food products.

We produced 241 products in 2010, including 15 new products in our chestnut and convenience foods segment. We also discontinued 4 products in 2010 in the convenience segment due to slow sales.

Our chestnut products and convenience foods were our main profit centers in 2010. Our convenience foods segment has been the fastest growing portion of our business and was one of the main catalysts of our growth during 2010. Frozen food products accounted for a smaller portion of our revenues in 2010 as compared with 2009 because we have been more focused on generating revenues from higher margin chestnut and convenience food products.

Chestnut Products

We believe that we are the largest chestnut processor and manufacturer in China. We have developed brand equity for our chestnut products in China, Japan and South Korea over the past 10 to 15 years. We produced 57 high value-added processed chestnut products in 2010, including 5 new products such as aerated chestnut with skin and chestnut paste. In 2010 and 2009, this segment contributed 54.9% and 60.7% of our total revenues, respectively.

Our best selling products in 2010 included our aerated open-bottom chestnuts, which are chestnuts packaged with nitrogen; sweetheart chestnuts, which are sweet preserved chestnuts; chestnuts in syrup, which are very popular in Japan and South Korea; and golden chestnut kernels. The majority of our chestnut products are natural and do not contain chemical additives.

The chestnut, in contrast to many other tree nuts, contains small quantities of oil and is very high in complex carbohydrates. This makes them useful for a wider food range than other common nuts. Chestnuts are commonly steamed, boiled, sugar stir-fried, roasted or added into dishes or desserts as an ingredient.

China is the largest grower of chestnuts in the world, followed by South Korea and Japan. In recent years, the chestnut production in South Korea and Japan has declined. This has been attributed to the increasing labor costs and operational costs incurred in growing chestnuts. Because of the declining domestic production, South Korean and Japanese customers have grown to rely more on imported chestnut products. Our strategy is to take advantage of these trends.

- 4 -

---

We differentiate our chestnut products based on flavor, size and method of packaging. For instance, some of our chestnut products that are sold in Japan are packaged in plastic bags or tin cans, each considered a different product. Similarly, some of our chestnut products are processed with hot water or cold water, each considered a different product.

Chestnut season in China lasts from September to January. We purchase and produce raw chestnuts during these months and store them in our refrigerated storage facilities throughout the year. Once we obtain a purchase order during the rest of the year, we remove the chestnuts from storage, process them and ship them within one day of production.

Convenience Foods

Our convenience food products are characterized as follows:

• Ready-to-cook, or RTC, food products,
• Ready-to-eat, or RTE, food products and
• Meals ready-to-eat, or MRE, food products.

These products are intended to meet the current demands of our customers for safe, wholesome and tasty foods that are easily prepared.

RTCs can be served after a few easy cooking procedures. Typically, when preparing a RTC, customers need only to heat the food in a microwave or boil it for several minutes before eating. Our best selling RTCs in 2010 were beef and lamb products.

RTEs can be served without any cooking. Our best selling RTEs in 2010 were various bean products and pickle products.

MREs are meal kits with self-heating devices or microwavable kits, such as microwavable rice boxes. Our self heating MREs are primarily for military use since no cooking device or other ingredients are needed other than water. We also introduced microwavable MREs for civilian uses such as camping, traveling and other situations since only simple preparation and a cooking device such as a microwave oven is required.

We produce various MREs based on Chinese cuisine, the best sellers of which were our pork with garlic sauce over rice and kungpao chicken with rice in 2010. Other MREs are based on other styles of food, such as Italian cuisine. Many of our convenience products are natural and do not contain chemical additives.

We produced 127 convenience food products in 2010, including 10 new products such as self-heating MRE rice products for civilian uses, which was previously exclusively for the army. In 2010 and 2009, this segment contributed 30.8% and 23.6%, respectively, of our total revenues.

Our convenience foods segment has been the fastest growing portion of our business and was one of the main catalysts of our growth during 2010. We expect our convenience foods segment to continue to be an important area of growth for our business in the future.

Frozen Food Products

We produce a variety of frozen foods, including frozen vegetables, frozen fruits, frozen fish, and frozen meats. We produced 61 frozen food products in 2010. Our best selling frozen foods in 2010 were frozen asparagus and frozen corn.

Our frozen food business allows us to mitigate the significant production seasonality of chestnut products and to increase the utilization rate of our production capacity. Historically, our frozen food division has been a significant portion of our business. With the growth of our convenience food segment, however, revenues and profits from our frozen food products as percentage to total revenue have decreased. In 2010 and 2009, this segment contributed 14.3% and 15.7%, respectively, of our total revenues. Gross margins in this segment are lower than the margins for chestnut products and convenience foods. We expect that the proportionate contribution of this business segment to our total revenues will continue to decline.

Our Manufacturing Facilities

General

We currently manufacture our products in six facilities in China, three of which are located in Junan County, Shandong Province, one in Luotian County, Hubei Province, one in Miyun County, Beijing City and one leased facility in Dongguan, Guandong Province. The following table indicates the year that operations commenced at each of the facilities and the size of the facilities:

- 5 -

---

	Year Operations	Facility Size
Facility	Commenced	(square meters)
Junan Hongrun	2002	38,865
Shandong Lorain	1995	15,392
Beijing Lorain	2003	21,000
Luotian Lorain	2003	9,558
Dongguan	2008	9,250
Shandong Greenpia	2010	9,179

Production Lines

We currently manufacture our products using 26 production lines. Each production line is used to produce between 10 and 50 products. We currently run three types of product lines:

• deep-freezing lines, which are used to freeze raw materials for year-round production and to produce frozen food;
• canning lines, which are used to produce canned products, including chestnut products; and
• convenience food lines, which are used for producing RTCs, RTEs and MREs, all of which have nitrogen preservation capacity.

The production process for our chestnut products initially involves sorting and cleaning the raw chestnuts purchased during the chestnut season. We then store the raw chestnuts in our refrigerated storage facilities throughout the year. Once we obtain a purchase order, we remove the chestnuts from storage and process them by steaming, decladding and deep-freezing the chestnuts, depending on the particular product. We then package and ship the processed chestnuts within one day of production.

The production process of our convenience products generally involves various steps, including soaking, boiling, coating, drying, deep freezing, packing, sealing and sterilizing.

The following table shows the number and types of production lines, the types of products produced and the production capacity at each facility:

Shandong Greenpia

2 Convenience food lines

Chestnut products, convenience foods

Multi-purpose production lines with 9,000 tons of production capacity and 1,500 tons of cold and frozen storage

- 6 -

---

We allocate our production lines based upon the location of our facilities to take advantage of efficiencies in the transportation of required raw materials. For example, Junan Hongrun and Shandong Lorain, which manufacture primarily chestnut and frozen products, are located in Shandong Province, which is China’s largest supplier of fresh products by volume. Shandong Province is also a major chestnut producing region. Likewise, all of our fish products are manufactured by Luotian Lorain, because the Luotian region is an area that has an abundance of the fish that we use as raw material.

Our production lines and facilities have all been designed to meet the standards and requirements of our largest customers in Japan, which is our largest export market. We employ advanced methods of quality control and have obtained various certifications for many of our products, packages and processes, including ISO 9000 or ISO 9001 certification for certain of our chestnut and frozen vegetable products, BRC certification for certain of our frozen fruit and vegetable products and HACCP certification for certain of our frozen vegetable, fruit and chestnut products and our bottom-open chestnuts. We believe that our quality controls and standards of products distinguish our products both in domestic and international markets. The import approvals that we have obtained from the Japanese government for our chestnuts and other convenience foods have been helpful in advocating with the Chinese government for domestic approvals to increase our product offerings.

With limited exception, we operate our production lines year round. In the past, when our production was focused almost exclusively on chestnuts, we experienced seasonal underutilization of our product lines. However, our current facilities have a multiple-function design, allowing us to use our production lines for our convenience and frozen products when we are not producing chestnuts at full capacity. Consequently, as we have increased our processed and convenience food offerings over the last several years, we have generally been able to run our production lines at close to full capacity throughout the year.

Previously, most of our processed and convenience foods were produced at our Beijing Lorain plant. With the introduction of bean products in 2009, we expanded our facility in Junan Hongrun with the addition of three convenience food production lines designed specifically for bean products with current annual capacity of 13,500 metric tons.

We believe our facilities are adequate for our current levels of production. We anticipate, however, that we will require additional facilities and/or product lines as our business grows. We are exploring the possibility of alliances with one or more OEM partners for the production, in the short-term, of some of our convenience food products and frozen products should our facilities be inadequate to meet increasing demand. We are also exploring the possibility of leasing additional production lines to expand our production capacity. In 2008, we leased two convenience foods production lines in Dongguan, Guangdong Province, which increased production capacity by approximately 3,000 metric tons per year to meet our short-term needs. Given the relatively low cost to lease, we may continue to lease additional facilities in 2011, if needed. In the long-term, we plan to increase our own production capacity by acquiring or building new facilities, subject to the availability of adequate sources of funding.

Storage Capacity

Storage of our raw materials and inventory is a critical element of our business. Our raw materials and partially finished products need to be preserved in frozen storages (-18ºC to -20ºC) or constant temperature storages (-5ºC to 5ºC). Storage is particularly critical for our chestnut products because chestnuts are a seasonal fruit.

The following table illustrates on a facility by facility basis the type and capacity of our storage resources:

Facility	Storage Type	Number of	Capacity
		Storage Units	(metric tons)
Junan Hongrun	Frozen Storage	13	6,600
	Constant Temperature	8	4,800
Shandong Lorain	Frozen Storage	5	2,000
	Constant Temperature	3	1,500
Luotian Lorain	Frozen Storage	8	4,500
	Constant Temperature	4	2,000
Beijing Lorain	Frozen Storage	6	2,850
	Constant Temperature	3	1,800
Dongguan	Frozen Storage	2	800
	Constant Temperature	2	1,450
Shandong Greenpia	Constant Temperature	4	1,500
TOTAL		58	29,800

- 7 -

---

As we have expanded our production capacity, we have also expanded our storage capacity. All of the listed storage facilities are owned by us. In 2009, we expanded our storage capacity in Junan Hongrun by an additional 3,600 metric tons. In 2010, we also expanded storage facility in Dongguan by 1,000 metric tons and, through our acquisition of Shandong Greenpia, we have added four additional storage units with an aggregate capacity of 1,500 square meters. We may also lease additional storage facilities from time to time should circumstance require.

Agricultural Operations

We grow or set up agricultural co-ops with local farmers to supply ourselves with a small portion of chestnut, fruit and vegetable products. For the year ended December 31, 2009 and 2010, the supplies coming from agricultural operations have been immaterial. We believe, however, that development of agricultural facilities is a good strategy for the long-term. We anticipate that self grown agricultural products will enable us to assure adequacy of supply, promote quality and reduce cost, particularly for our high margin offerings. For example, by growing Korean cultivar chestnuts domestically, we expect to significantly reduce our supply costs for this premium product, while ensuring superior quality.

Lands in which we grow our agricultural products for such products are shown in the following table.

	Area	Location
Harvest	(acres)	(PRC)
Chestnut (South Korean, Japanese, Australian cultivar)	329	Shandong
Chestnut (Japanese cultivar)	165	Beijing
Sticky Corn	342	Beijing

We began growing chestnuts in Shandong Province in 2003. Unlike most vegetables and fruits, chestnut trees have a 3-5 year growing phase before they can be harvested. Our current chestnut planting base has been self-supplying limited quantities of chestnuts to our production since 2007.

We began growing strawberries in 2008 in Shandong and peaches, apricots, pears and blackberries in 2009 in Beijing. We use these fruits in some of our frozen fruit products. We plan to continue to expand our agricultural operations over the next few years. Among other things, we plan to increase our self-production in China of Korean cultivar chestnuts. We expect to obtain funding for this expansion through a combination of commercial and government loans, including loans under Chinese government programs to promote agricultural industrialization. There is no assurance, however, that adequate funding for these purposes will be available to us.

Raw Materials

In 2010 and 2009, approximately 93% and 94% of our procured raw materials, respectively, consisted of agricultural products, including primarily chestnuts and vegetables, approximately 4% and 3%, respectively, consisted of packaging materials and approximately 3% consisted of condiments such as sugar, salt and flour.

Our Supply Sources

Our business depends on obtaining a reliable supply of various agricultural products, including chestnuts, vegetables, red meat, fish, eggs, rice and flour. Because of the diversity of available sources of these raw materials, we believe that our raw materials are currently in adequate supply and will continue to be so in the future.

- 8 -

---

We obtain our agricultural raw materials from three sources: domestic procurement (excluding self-supply), overseas markets, and self-supply. Domestic and overseas procurement accounted 97% and 2%, respectively, of our total raw material costs in 2009, with self-supply accounted for the remaining 1%. We obtained substantially all of our agricultural raw materials from domestic sources during 2010.

In 2010 and 2009, respectively, we procured approximately 55,200 and 69,364 metric tons of chestnuts and approximately 44,500 and 48,380 metric tons of vegetables and other raw materials from a number of third party suppliers, domestic and overseas, and produced approximately 60 and 49 metric tons of chestnuts from our own agricultural operations.

We select suppliers based on price and product quality. We typically rely on numerous domestic and international suppliers, including some with whom we have a long-term relationship. Our top 10 suppliers accounted for 17.4% and 21.3%, respectively, of the total procurement in 2010 and 2009 in value terms. We purchase from suppliers and farmers pursuant to supply contracts and underlying purchase orders. We have not entered into any long-term contracts with any of our suppliers.

Our suppliers generally include wholesale agricultural product companies, agricultural associations and distributors. Some raw materials must be imported at higher costs, however. Occasionally, we also work directly with farmers. For instance, we operate an initiative which involves a series of cooperation and lease agreements between Shandong Lorain, Beijing Lorain and local farmers. This initiative involves approximately 1,000 acres of land which is used primarily to produce Japanese and Korean style chestnuts, sticky corn and pumpkins for our operations.

Procurement Cost and Quality Control

To control procurement costs, we have located our facilities near domestic sources of agricultural raw materials. For example, Junan Hongrun and Shandong Lorain are located in Shandong Province, which is China’s largest supplier of fresh products by volume. Shandong Province is also a major chestnut producing region. Likewise, all of our fish products are manufactured by Luotian Lorain, because the Luotian region is an area that has an abundance of the fish that we use as raw material. Local procurement reduces our costs, especially transportation costs. It also gives us first-hand harvest and market information, which provides us with an advantage in price negotiations with suppliers.

Some raw materials must be imported at higher cost. As discussed, we have begun to develop our agricultural capabilities in order to control costs, particularly with respect to imported raw materials such as Korean-style chestnuts.

Pricing for agricultural products reflects several external factors, such as weather conditions and commodity market fluctuations, which are beyond our control. We obtain contemporaneous information on local harvests and collect daily reported price information on harvests in other markets from which we procure our products. We also attempt to predict harvest yields in advance based on our information gathering. We use this harvest information to negotiate best pricing with our suppliers.

We impose strict standards on our suppliers. During the harvest season, our internal procurement function may visit our sources of supply to assure that the products we are purchasing comply with our standards.

Our Customers

We sell our products in 26 provinces and administrative regions in China and 42 foreign countries globally. In 2010 and 2009, approximately 73.3% and 70.5%, respectively, of our sales were made domestically and approximately 26.7% and 29.5%, respectively, were to international customers, primarily Japan and South Korea.

Our top ten customers contributed 20.5% and 26.2% of our total revenues in 2010 and 2009.  Approximately 11.2% in 2009 and 8.6% in 2010 were of our total sales were attributable to revenues from Shandong Lvan Import & Export Co., Ltd., a food trading company in China.

Domestic

In China, we sell our products through our own sales team and through third-party distributors. We have 36 sales offices in 21 provinces in China. In 2010 and 2009, we sold approximately 89% and 82%, respectively, of our products directly to our Chinese customers and approximately 11% and 18% through third-party distributors.

We sell our products in all first-tier cities in China, including Beijing, Shanghai, Tianjin and Guangzhou, through our own sales efforts in order to capture the profit margin that would otherwise go to intermediate wholesalers and to enhance our brand recognition. Our sales team sells our products directly to supermarket chains, mass merchandisers, large wholesalers and others in these markets. In second-tier and third-tier cities, we currently sell our products to third-party distributors, such as food companies or trading companies with established distribution channels in such regions, rather than through our own sales team, in order to enable us to penetrate such markets more quickly without spending significant capital. We also sell to small customers through independent sales representatives.

- 9 -

---

Generally, our direct sales customers are required to pay us on 30 to 60 day credit terms. Third-party distributors, however, generally do not pay on credit, allowing us to obtain quicker payment terms and thereby decrease our accounts receivables.

The terms of a typical sales contract between us and our distributors provide that we are responsible for transportation costs and the distributors are responsible for storage costs. Furthermore, the distributors have the right to return products that fail to satisfy specified quality standards, at our cost. The majority of such contracts require the distributors to pay us in cash in full upon delivery, and the remaining contracts provide for short-term credit, usually two to three weeks. In addition, we typically offer distributors performance-based incentives, such as a cash bonus equal to 1% of total revenues generated by such distributor which exceed previously established sales targets.

We plan to gradually increase the portion of sales to third party distributors in order to access new markets in China in a cost effective manner and to improve our cash position. Such plans are subject to our ability to restructure the sales force and manage the increased number of distributors without compromising our profit margins.

International

Our export sales destinations include:

• Asia pacific, primarily Japan, South Korea and Malaysia, but also Singapore, Philippines, Indonesia and Australia;
• Europe, primarily Belgium and the United Kingdom, but also France, Germany, the Netherlands, Spain, Poland, and Denmark
• the Middle East, primarily Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and Israel;
• North America, including the United States and Canada

We generate most of our sales in Asia. In 2010 and 2009, respectively, approximately 92.7% and 94.0% of our international sales were in Asia and approximately 5.3% and 4.5% were in Europe.

We sell our products to international markets primarily through export and trading agents and companies in China, as well as our own sales team located in China. Our sales team sells directly to wholesalers, food processors and mass merchandisers. Many of our customers are well known in their local food market. We have established long-term relationships with many international customers, especially in Japan and South Korea. We currently have no sales offices outside of China and do not use alternative methods to sell our products outside of China. We attend trade shows in Europe and other international markets in order to promote our products.

In March 2011, the northern region of Japan experienced a severe earthquake followed by a tsunami. These geological events caused significant damage in that region and have adversely affected Japan's infrastructure and economy. Several of our customers are located in Japan and they may experience in the future shutdowns as a result of these events, and their operations may be negatively impacted by these events. Japan accounted for 10.7% and 12.9% of our total revenue for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. We do not expect the current crisis to harm our export sales to Japan because most of our products are distributed to Tokyo, Osaka, Nagoya, Kobe and Kyoto, which did not suffer direct damages in the earthquake or tsunami. In addition, demand for chestnuts, as a substitute for certain staple foods which may be of inadequate supply in certain regions in Japan, may increase. Thus far, we have not seen any negative impact based on existing export orders to Japan and do not foresee severe disruptions to our business. However, should the situation in Japan worsen, our exports to Japan may be negatively impacted.

Our Sales and Marketing Efforts

We seek to expand our customer base by:

• direct sales communications with our larger customers;
• sales through distributors to new customer bases;
• referrals from existing customers; and
• participation in domestic and international food exhibitions and trade conferences.

We have not spent a significant amount of capital on advertising in the past, and our advertising budget continues to be limited. In 2010 our marketing and branding efforts included supermarket advertising, internet advertising and contract with a local celebrity to promote certain convenience food products. We intend to increase our advertising and branding efforts given the consumer nature for many of our products. For the near future, our marketing efforts will continue to focus primarily on the domestic Chinese market for our chestnut and convenience food products.

Competition and Market Position

The overall food market is diverse, both globally and in China. We do not have a significant market share in any of our business segments.

- 10 -

---

Chestnut Products

We compete in the chestnut market primarily on the basis of the uniqueness of our products, quality, price and brand recognition. We also utilize our proprietary, patented and patent-pending technology in the production of our chestnut products to our competitive advantage.

The world market for chestnut products is highly fragmented. Our principal competitors in the chestnut product market are currently Hebei Liyuan, a Chinese company, and Foodwell Corporation, a South Korean company.

Convenience Food Products

Convenience food products market competition is based mostly upon quality and product variety. We attempt to use our modern food processing technology, such as nitrogen preservation, to produce a wide variety of high quality convenience foods.

The convenience food market in China is highly fragmented and we do not face competitive pressure from any particular competitor or small group of competitors.

Frozen Food Products

In the frozen food product market, competition is based primarily upon quality, ability to provide a reliable product supply and customer relationships.

Our strongest competitors in the frozen food products market are currently Weifang Langdong Food Co. Ltd., Yuyao Hongji Food Co. Ltd. and Yantai Pengshun Food Co. Ltd., all of which are located in China.

Competitive Advantages

We believe that we enjoy a number of competitive advantages, both domestically and internationally.

We have developed brand equity for our chestnut products in China, Japan and South Korea over the past 10 to 15 years. Our customers are willing to pay a premium for some of our chestnut products because of our brand equity. In addition, we believe that we have a strong distribution channel for our products in the markets in which we currently operate.

We believe that we are able to provide our customers with greater selection and a more reliable supply than many of our competitors, which is especially important for our supermarket chain and large wholesaler customers. We produced 52 chestnut products in 2010. We believe that we are the sole provider of certain bottom-open chestnut and sweetheart chestnut products in China.

Labor is a large portion of total operating costs for food companies. We believe that we have a lower labor cost structure and a more abundant labor supply than many of our international competitors.

We are focused on managing our costs in other ways as well. We seek to locate our production facilities in close proximity to our main domestic sources of raw materials supply to reduce transportation costs and give us first-hand knowledge of market factors affecting our cost of raw material supply. Our agricultural self-supply program, while modest at present, is expected to grow and to become a significant element of our cost containment efforts.

We use modern food processing technology and innovation in our formulations and manufacturing processes to create high quality products. Nitrogen preservation in particular, used in the production of convenience foods, is an innovative technology which has not been widely applied in China.

In 2008, we submitted an application for patent protection in the PRC for two of our technologies which support the production of our chestnut and convenience food products, with one successful patent grant and one denial. During 2009 and 2010, we submitted four additional patent applications, which are currently under review. These applications are still pending approval. (See “Intellectual Property” below.) We believe that our technology gives us an advantage over our Chinese competitors, allowing us to produce chestnut and convenience food products that are superior in quality and to offer more products varieties.

We believe that our reputation for quality also contributes to our competitiveness. We maintain high food safety standards, in order to satisfy both domestic and international requirements. We regularly test our products for quality and compliance with standards.

Intellectual Property

Trademarks

We use the trademarks and on all of our products sold in China.

Patents

We have developed the following three proprietary technologies to support our chestnut and convenience food production:

• The sweetheart chestnut is a premium product that is more expensive, and yields greater profit margins than our other chestnut products. Our proprietary technology relates to the process for evenly distributing throughout the chestnuts the syrup used to preserve the chestnuts. This technology enhances the texture of the chestnuts, preserves the natural form of the chestnuts and promotes the stability and uniformity of the chestnuts’ sweetness. In 2008, our patent application for this technology was approved by the State Intellectual Property Office of the PRC and is protected by PRC patent law for 20 years. We expect this technology to contribute to the growth of our sales of sweetheart chestnuts, which had been increasing at an annual rate of 25% to 30% over the past several years.

• Oden is a popular traditional Japanese dish, typically consisting of boiled eggs, daikon radish, konnyaku and processed fish cakes stewed in a light, soy-flavored dashi broth. Our technology relates to the process used to control the sterilization of the packaging for oden eggs. Our technology enables us to deliver convenience food products with unique freshness and authentic taste. This technology has been an important factor in expanding the market for our convenience foods products, particularly in Japan. Our patent application for this product was approved by the State Intellectual Property Office in February 2009.

• The pickle vegetable exhibition counter is ideal for shopping malls and supermarkets. It consists of the refrigerator cabinet which keeps the temperature low, and the exhibition cabinet, which sits above the refrigerator cabinet and with glass covers. The exhibition counter is intended for convenience observation and better preservation for the pickle vegetables. Our patent for this device was granted in April 2009.

We also have four patent applications pending with the State Intellectual Property Office of the PRC, including the preparation of aerated snack beans, frozen bottom open chestnuts, as well as the device and the preparation procedure for chestnut roasting within a high pressure cylinder device. The approval for patents typically takes 3 to 4 years.

We take reasonable steps to protect our proprietary information and trade secrets, such as limiting disclosure of proprietary plans, methods and the like on a need-to-know basis and requiring employees with access to our proprietary technology to enter into confidentiality arrangements. We believe that our proprietary technology and trade secrets are adequately protected.

Our Employees

As of December 31, 2010, we had a total of 2,050 full-time employees and 467 part-time employees. 696 of our full-time employees are directly employed by our subsidiary companies and the remaining employees are employed by Linyi Zhifu Labor Service Company, an outside company that leases employees to us to meet our staffing needs. As required by Chinese law, all employees are party to a written employment contract. We compensate the employees leased from Linyi Zhifu directly and pay Linyi Zhifu a service fee. Linyi Zhifu is responsible for the pension and social insurance benefits of the leased employees, as described below.

We believe that the relationship between management and our employees is good. We have not experienced any significant problems or disruption to our operations due to labor disputes, nor have we experienced any difficulties in recruitment and retention of experienced staff.

Our Shandong Lorain subsidiary has an employee relations department for the purpose of advancing employee welfare, encouraging employee participation in decision making and enhancing relations among employees and between employees and our management team.

We compensate our production line employees by unit produced (piece work) and compensate other employees with a base salary and bonus based on performance. We also provide training for our staff from time to time to enhance their technical and product knowledge, including knowledge of industry quality standards.

Our employees in China participate in a state pension scheme organized by Chinese municipal and provincial governments. We were required to contribute to the scheme on behalf of our direct employees at a rate of 24% of the average monthly salary for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009. In addition, we are required by Chinese law to cover our employees with various types of social insurance. We made contributions to the social insurance scheme on behalf of our direct employees at a rate of 4% of the average monthly salary for each employee for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009, and 2008. As indicated above, Linyi Zhifu is responsible for contributions on behalf of the leased employees.

Our Research and Development Activities

Our research and development efforts are focused on three objectives:

• Superior product safety and quality;

• Reduction of operating costs; and

• Sustaining growth through the development of new products.

We have research and development staff at each of our facilities. In total, 40 employees are dedicated to research and development.

We rely heavily on customer feedback to assist us in the modification and development of our products. We also utilize customer feedback to assist us in the development of new products. Over the past several years, on average, we added 10 to 20 new varieties to our product portfolio each year. In 2010, we added 15 new products, most in our chestnut and convenience foods segment. In 2010, we discontinued 4 products,in the convenience food segment primarily due to slow sales..

The amount we spent on research and development activities during the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 was not a material portion of our total expenses for those years.

Government Regulation

As a manufacturer and distributor of food products, we are subject to regulations of China’s Agricultural Ministry. This regulatory scheme governs the manufacture (including composition and ingredients), labeling, packaging and safety of food. It also regulates manufacturing practices, including quality assurance programs, for foods through its current goods manufacturing practices regulations, and specifies the standards of identity for certain foods, including the products sold by us, and prescribes the format and content of many of the products sold by us, the format and content of certain nutritional information required to appear on food products labels and approves and regulates claims of health benefits of food products.

We have obtained approvals from Chinese authorities for the production of certain categories of products, including chestnuts, frozen vegetables and fruits, fish, and canned products. Production of new products that do not fall into approved categories of products would require separate approval from the appropriate Chinese authorities. We have consistently obtained such approvals for our newly developed products in the past and do not anticipate any difficulties in obtaining new approvals in the future if needed.

In addition, we are required to obtain governmental approval, and to register with the State Administration for Industry and Commerce, in order to open a new facility in China. We have consistently obtained such approvals, and made such registrations, for our new facilities in the past and do not anticipate any difficulties in filing new registrations and obtaining new approvals in the future if needed.

Under the relevant Provisions of the PRC on Sanitation of Food for Export (for Trial Implementation), unless an exporter’s products are exempted from inspection, products must be inspected in accordance with the Law of the PRC on Import and Export Commodity Inspection. We have not been exempted from inspection. In the past, we were authorized by the relevant authorities to conduct self-inspection of certain of our export products. However, currently, the relevant authorities have imposed tighter food safety control in China, and as a result, all of our exported food products must be inspected by qualifying government agencies. We believe that all of our exported products are currently in compliance with such requirements and we do not anticipate any difficulties in complying with such rules in the future.

In addition, we are required to obtain a license from the local branch of the Entry-Exit Inspection and Quarantine Bureau of China for our exported products. We have consistently obtained such licenses in the past and we do not anticipate any difficulties in obtaining such licenses in the future.

Item 1A. RISK FACTORS

RISK FACTORS

From time to time, information provided by us, including but not limited to statements in this report, or other statements made by or on our behalf, may contain “forward-looking” information within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties, and contingencies, many of which are beyond our control, which may cause actual results, performance, or achievements to differ materially from those anticipated. Set forth below are important factors that could cause our results, performance, or achievements to differ materially from those in any forward-looking statements made by us or on our behalf.

Business Risks

We may not be able to obtain an adequate supply of high quality raw materials.

Our business depends on obtaining a reliable supply of various agricultural products, including chestnuts, vegetables, fruits, red meat, fish, eggs, rice, flour and packaging products. During 2010, the cost of our raw materials increased from $81,501,168 to $102,751,348 for an increase of approximately 26.1% . We may have to increase the number of our suppliers of raw materials and expand our own agricultural operations in the future to meet growing production demands. Despite our efforts to control our supply of raw materials and maintain good relationships with our suppliers, we could lose one or more of our suppliers at any time. The loss of several suppliers may be difficult to replace and could increase our reliance on higher cost or lower quality suppliers, which could negatively affect our profitability. In addition, if we have to increase the number of our suppliers of raw materials in the future to meet growing production demands, we may not be able to locate new suppliers who could provide us with sufficient materials to meet our needs. Any interruptions to, or decline in, the amount or quality of our raw materials supply could materially disrupt our production and adversely affect our business and financial condition and financial prospects.

The prices that we have paid for our raw materials recently have experienced significant fluctuation. If these price fluctuations continue, our profit margins may be materially adversely affected.

The average price that we paid for chestnuts in 2010 and 2009 was approximately $1,286 per metric ton and $868 per metric ton, respectively, excluding value added taxes. We do not currently hedge against changes in our raw material prices. Consequently, if the costs of our raw materials increase further, and we are unable to offset these increases by raising the prices of our products, our profit margins and financial condition could be adversely affected.

Price inflation in China could affect our results of operation if we are unable to pass along raw material price increases to our customers.

Inflation in China has recently increased. Reports indicate that inflation in China increased to a 28-month high in November 2010. Because we purchase raw materials from suppliers in China, price inflation has recently caused an increase in the cost of our raw materials. Price inflation could affect our results of operation if we are unable to pass along raw material price increases to customers. In addition, if inflationary trends continue in China, China could lose its competitive advantage as a low-cost manufacturing venue, which could in turn lessen some of the competitive advantages of our being based in China. Accordingly, inflation in China may weaken our competitiveness domestically or in international markets.

Our sales and reputation may be affected by product liability claims, litigation or, product recalls in relation to our products.

The sale of products for human consumption involves an inherent risk of injury to consumers. We face risks associated with product liability claims, litigation, or product recalls, if our products cause injury or become adulterated or misbranded. Our products are subject to product tampering and contamination, such as mold, bacteria, insects, shell fragments and off-flavor contamination, during any of the procurement, production, transportation and storage processes. If any of our products were to be tampered with, or become tainted in any of these respects, and we were unable to detect this, our products could be subject to product liability claims or product recalls. Our ability to sell products could be reduced if certain pesticides, herbicides or other chemicals used by growers have left harmful residues on portions of our raw materials or if our raw materials have been contaminated by other agents.

- 14 -

---

We have never had a product recall in the past but we have experienced product liability claims that were made by our customers. The amounts of such claims were immaterial. However, claims of product defect or product liability for material amounts, individually or in the aggregate, may be made in the future.

We have not procured a product liability or general liability insurance policy for our business, as the insurance industry in China is still in an early stage of development. To the extent that we suffer a loss of a type which would normally be covered by product liability or general liability insurance in the United States, we would incur significant expenses in defending any action against us and in paying any claims that result from a settlement or judgment against us. Product liability claims and product recalls could have a material adverse effect on the demand for our products and on our business goodwill and reputation. Adverse publicity could result in a loss of consumer confidence in our products.

We may be unable to manage future rapid growth.

We have grown rapidly over the last few years. Our sales increased from $27,735,833 in 2004 to $184,176,567 in 2010. The number of product types we sold increased from approximately 100 in 2004 to approximately 241 in 2010. We intend to continue to expand the volume and variety of products we offer, as well as the geographical scope of our sales and production facilities. Our business growth could place a significant strain on our managerial, operational and financial resources. Our ability to manage future growth will depend on our ability to continue to implement and improve operational, financial and management information systems on a timely basis and to expand, train, motivate and manage our workforce. Our personnel, systems, procedures and controls may not be adequate to support our future growth. Failure to effectively manage our expansion may lead to increased costs, a decline in sales and reduced profitability.

Our expansion strategy may not prove successful and could adversely affect our existing business.

Our growth strategy includes the expansion of our manufacturing operations, including new production lines and agricultural operations. We plan to expand our sales in China and internationally. We will need to engage in various forms of promotional and marketing activities in order to further develop the branding of our products and to increase our market share in new and existing markets. The implementation of this strategy may involve large transactions and present financial, managerial and operational challenges. We could also experience financial or other setbacks if any of our growth strategies incur problems of which we are not presently aware. If we fail to generate sufficient sales in new markets or increase our sales in existing markets, we may not be able to recover the production, distribution, promotional and marketing expenses, as well as administrative costs we have incurred in developing such markets.

Our results of operations could be affected by natural events in the locations in which our customers operate.

Several of our customers have operations in locations that are subject to natural disasters, such as severe weather and geological events, which could disrupt the operations of those customers and suppliers as well as our operations. For example, in March 2011, the northern region of Japan experienced a severe earthquake followed by a tsunami. These geological events caused significant damage in that region and have adversely affected Japan's infrastructure and economy. Several of our customers are located in Japan and they may experience in the future shutdowns as a result of these events, and their operations may be negatively impacted by these events. As a result, some or all of those customers may reduce their orders for our products, which could adversely affect our revenue and results of operations. In addition to the negative direct economic effects of recent events on the Japanese economy and on our customers and suppliers located in Japan, economic conditions in Japan could also adversely affect regional and global economic conditions. The degree to which these events, as well as future events, in Japan will adversely affect regional and global economies remains uncertain at this time. However, if these events cause a decrease in demand for our products, our financial condition and operations could be adversely affected.

The acquisition of other businesses could pose risks to our profitability.

We may try to grow through acquisitions in the future. Any proposed acquisition could result in accounting charges, potentially dilutive issuances of equity securities, and increased debt and contingent liabilities, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our existing business and the market price of our common stock. Acquisitions, in general, entail many risks, including risks relating to the failed integration of the acquired operations, diversion of management’s attention, and the potential loss of key employees of the acquired organizations. We may be unable to successfully integrate businesses or the personnel of any business that might be acquired in the future, and our failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on our business and on the market price of our common stock.

We are subject to risks of doing business internationally. If the international market does not grow as we expect, our business and financial condition may be adversely affected.

We conduct a substantial amount of business internationally. Our export sales destinations include countries in Asia, Europe, the Middle East and North America. Our international operations are subject to a number of inherent risks, including:

• chestnut products may not be widely recognized internationally, especially in Western countries;
• local economic and political conditions, including disruptions in trading markets;
• restrictive foreign governmental actions, including restrictions on transfers of funds and trade;
• protection measures, including export duties and quotas and customs tariffs;
• currency exchange rate fluctuations;
• earthquakes, tsunamis, floods or other major disasters may limit the imported food products; and
• unexpected incidents related to food safety.

Any of the foregoing risks could have a material and adverse effect on our operating results.

A significant amount of our revenues is dependent on a limited number of customers and the loss of any one of our major customers could materially and adversely affect our growth and our revenues.

A significant portion of our revenues has historically been derived from a limited number of customers, particularly in our chestnut products segment. Sales to our five largest customers accounted for approximately 21% and 16% of our total revenues in 2009 and 2010, respectively. The loss of any one of these customers, or a material decrease in purchases by any one of these customers, could adversely impact our revenues.

We rely primarily on distributors to sell our products. Any delays in delivery or poor handling by our distributors or third-party transport operators may affect our sales and damage our reputation.

In 2010, we sold our products through over 100 distribution service providers. The services provided could be suspended and could cause interruption to the supply of our products to domestic or overseas customers. Delivery disruptions may occur for various reasons beyond our control, including poor handling by service providers or third party transport operators, transportation bottlenecks, natural disasters and labor strikes, and could lead to delayed, damaged or lost deliveries. If our products are not delivered in a timely manner, our reputation could be harmed. If our products are damaged in the process of being delivered, we may be liable to pay for such damages incurred.

Failure of the market to accept our new products, or failure to obtain regulatory approval for our new products, may cause us to lose our competitive position in the food industry.

We introduced 19 new products in 2009 and 15 new products in 2010. We plan to introduce approximately 10 to 20 new products in 2011. The success of the new products we introduce depends on our ability to anticipate the tastes and dietary habits of consumers and to offer products that appeal to their preferences. We intend to introduce new products as well as alternative flavors, sizes and packaging for our existing products. We may not be able to gain market acceptance for our new products. Consumer preferences change, and any new products that we introduce may fail to meet the particular tastes or requirements of consumers, or may be unable to replace their existing preferences. Our failure to anticipate, identify or react to these particular tastes or changes could result in reduced demand for our products, which could in turn cause us to be unable to recover our development, production and marketing costs.

We are dependent on certain key personnel and loss of these key personnel could have a material adverse effect on our research and development, operations and revenue.

The Lorain Group Companies were founded in 1995 by Si Chen, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Chen, together with other senior management, has been a key driver of our strategy and has been fundamental to our achievements to date. The successful management of our business is, to a considerable extent, dependent on the services of Mr. Chen and other senior management. We compete for qualified personnel with other food processing companies, food retailers and research institutions. Consequently, we may either lose key employees to our competitors or we may need to significantly increase the compensation of such employees in order to retain them. The loss of the services of any key management employee or failure to recruit a suitable or comparable replacement could have a significant impact upon our ability to manage our business effectively, and our business and future growth may be adversely affected.

- 16 -

---

We face increasing competition from domestic and foreign companies.

The food industry in China is fragmented. Our ability to compete against other national and international enterprises is, to a significant extent, dependent on our ability to distinguish our products from those of our competitors by providing large volumes of high quality products that appeal to consumers’ tastes and preferences at reasonable prices. Some of our competitors have been in business longer than we have and are more established. Our competitors may provide products comparable or superior to those we provide or adapt more quickly than we do to evolving industry trends or changing market requirements. Increased competition may result in price reductions, higher raw materials prices, reduced margins and loss of market share, any of which could materially adversely affect our profit margins.

An increase in the cost of energy could affect our profitability.

Recently, we have experienced significant increases in energy costs, and energy costs could continue to rise, which would result in higher distribution, freight and other operating costs. Our future operating expenses and margins will be dependent on our ability to manage the impact of cost increases.

Our products are subject to counterfeiting or imitation, which could impact our reputation.

To date, we have experienced limited counterfeiting and imitation of our products. However, counterfeiting or imitation of our products may occur in the future and we may not be able to detect it and deal with it effectively. Any occurrence of counterfeiting or imitation could impact negatively upon our reputation, particularly if the counterfeit or imitation products cause sickness, or injury to consumers. In addition, counterfeit or imitation products could result in our need to incur costs with respect to the detection or prosecution of such activities.

We rely on an outside contractor to provide a majority of our labor.

We have hired Linyi Zhifu Labor Service Company to provide employees to our production facilities. Should Linyi Zhifu Labor Service Company be unable to continue to provide the number of employees we need, our production could be disrupted. In addition, Linyi Zhifu Labor Service Company could raise their service fees or terminate their relationship with us in the future, which may result in increased production costs.

Regulatory Risks

We are subject to extensive regulations by the Chinese government.

The food industry is subject to extensive regulations by Chinese government agencies. Among other things, these regulations govern the manufacturing, importation, processing, packaging, storage, exportation, distribution and labeling of our products. New or amended statutes and regulations, increased production at our existing facilities, and our expansion into new operations and jurisdictions may require us to obtain new licenses and permits and could require us to change our methods of operations at costs that could be substantial.

Our failure to comply with PRC environmental laws may require us to incur significant costs.

We carry on our business in an industry that is subject to PRC environmental protection laws and regulations. These laws and regulations require enterprises engaged in manufacturing and construction that may cause environmental waste to adopt effective measures to control such waste. In addition, such enterprises are required to pay fines, or to cease operations entirely under extreme circumstances, should they discharge waste substances. The Chinese government may also change the existing laws or regulations or impose additional or stricter laws or regulations, compliance with which may cause us to incur significant capital expenditures, which we may be unable to pass on to our customers through higher prices for our products.

Our failure to comply with PRC hygiene laws may require us to incur significant costs.

Manufacturers in the Chinese food industry are subject to compliance with PRC food hygiene laws and regulations. These food hygiene laws require all enterprises engaged in the production of chestnuts and various vegetables and fruits to obtain a hygiene license for each of their production facilities. Such laws also require manufacturers to comply with regulations with respect to food, food additives, packaging, and food production sites, facilities and equipment. Failure to comply with PRC food hygiene laws may result in fines, suspension of operations, loss of hygiene licenses and, in more extreme cases, criminal proceedings against an enterprise and its management. The Chinese government may also change the existing laws or regulations or impose additional or stricter laws or regulations, compliance with which may cause us to incur significant capital expenditures, which we may be unable to pass on to our customers through higher prices for our products.

- 17 -

---

Financial Risks

Our operations are cash intensive, and our business could be adversely affected if we fail to maintain sufficient levels of working capital.

We spend a significant amount of cash on our operations, principally to procure raw materials for our products. Many of our suppliers, including chestnut, vegetable and fruit farmers, and suppliers of packaging materials, do not allow us to pay on credit. However, some of the suppliers with whom we have a long-standing business relationship allow us to pay on credit. We fund the majority of our working capital requirements out of cash flow generated from operations. If we fail to generate sufficient sales, or if our suppliers stop offering us credit terms, we may not have sufficient liquidity to fund our operating costs and our business could be adversely affected.

We also fund approximately 37% of our working capital requirements from the proceeds of short-term loans from Chinese banks. We expect to continue to do so in the future. Such loans are generally secured by our fixed assets, receivables and/or guarantees by third parties. Our average loan balance from short-term bank loans in 2009 was approximately $32.7 million. The term of almost all such loans is one year or less. Historically, we have rolled over such loans on an annual basis. However, we may not have sufficient funds available to pay all of our borrowings upon maturity. Failure to roll over our short-term borrowings at maturity or to service our debt could result in the imposition of penalties, including increases in rates of interest, legal actions against us by our creditors, or even insolvency. In addition, in 2007, 2008 and 2009, we funded approximately $8.8 million, in the aggregate, of our working capital requirements from the proceeds of two private placement transactions conducted in May 2007 and October 2009. We can provide no assurances that we will be able to enter into any future financing or refinancing agreements on terms favorable to us, especially considering the current instability of the capital markets.

Management anticipates that our existing capital resources and cash flows from operations and current and expected short-term bank loans will be adequate to satisfy our liquidity requirements through 2010. However, if available liquidity is not sufficient to meet our operating and loan obligations as they come due, our plans include considering pursuing alternative financing arrangements or further reducing expenditures as necessary to meet our cash requirements. However, there is no assurance that, if required, we will be able to raise additional capital or reduce discretionary spending to provide the required liquidity. Currently, the capital markets for small capitalization companies are difficult and banking institutions have become stringent in their lending requirements. Accordingly, we cannot be sure of the availability or terms of any third party financing.

We are subject to credit risk in respect of account receivables.

In 2008 and 2009, some of our customers, including some of our large supermarket customers, delayed their payments for up to 60 to 90 days beyond their term. Our cash flow suffered while waiting for such payments. Consequently, at times we had to delay payments to our suppliers and to postpone business expansion as a result of these delayed payments. Starting from 2008, we gradually shortened credit terms for many of our international and domestic customers from between 30 and 180 days to between 30 and 60 days. Our large customers may fail to meet these shortened credit terms, in which case we may not have sufficient cash flow to fund our operating costs and our business could be adversely affected.

The discontinuation of any preferential tax treatment or other incentives currently available to us in the PRC could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our subsidiaries are entitled to certain special or preferential tax treatments regarding foreign enterprise income tax in accordance with the “Income Tax Law of the PRC for Enterprises with Foreign Investment and Foreign Enterprises” and related rules.

Accordingly, we have been entitled to tax concessions whereby the profit for the first two financial years beginning with the first profit-making year (after setting off tax losses carried forward from prior years) is exempt from income tax in the PRC and the profit for each of the subsequent three financial years is taxed at 50% of the prevailing tax rates set by the relevant tax authorities. However, on March 16, 2007, the PRC’s National People’s Congress passed a new corporate income tax law, which became effective on January 1, 2008. This new corporate income tax unifies the corporate income tax rate, cost deduction and tax incentive policies for both domestic and foreign-invested enterprises. According to the new corporate income tax law, the applicable corporate income tax rate of our operating subsidiaries has been increased to a rate of 25% over a five-year grandfather period. This tax rate increase applies across the board, for all enterprises whether domestic or foreign. The PRC government has established a set of transition rules to allow enterprises that already started tax holidays before January 1, 2008, to continue utilizing the tax holidays until fully utilized. The discontinuation of any such special or preferential tax treatment or other incentives could have an adverse affect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

In addition, under current PRC tax law, regulations and rulings, dividends from our operations in China paid to us are not currently subject to PRC income tax. If these distributions become subject to tax in the future, our net income would be adversely affected.

---

We may enter into additional financing agreements which may have a dilutive effect to our earnings per share and the rights of certain stockholders.

Additional financings could result in significant dilution to our earnings per share or the issuance of securities with rights superior to our current outstanding securities. For instance, we may grant registration rights to investors purchasing our equity or debt securities in the future.

We may be unable to raise additional capital.

If we are unable to raise additional financing when needed, we may be unable to implement our long-term business plan, develop or enhance our products and services, take advantage of future opportunities or respond to competitive pressures on a timely basis, if at all. In addition, a lack of additional financing could force us to substantially curtail or cease operations.

We may be exposed to potential risks relating to our internal control over financial reporting and our ability to have such controls attested to by our independent auditors.

The SEC, under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, adopted rules requiring public companies to provide in their annual reports on Form 10-K a report by management with respect to the company’s disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting. We are currently required to comply with this requirement. In addition, such rules require the independent registered public accounting firm auditing a company’s financial statements to attest to the operating effectiveness of such company’s internal controls. However, we are not subject to the requirements of SOX 404(b) until our fiscal year ended December 31, 2010. We can provide no assurance that we will comply with all of the requirements imposed thereby. Further, we cannot assure that we will receive a positive attestation from our independent auditors. Investors and others may lose confidence in the reliability of our financial statements in the event we identify significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in our internal controls that we cannot remediate in a timely manner or if we are unable to receive a positive attestation from our independent auditors with respect to our internal controls.

Risks Related To Doing Business In China

Changes in China’s political or economic situation could harm us and our operating results.

Economic reforms adopted by the Chinese government have had a positive effect on the economic development of the country. However, the Chinese government could change these economic reforms at any time. Such changes could negatively impact our operations and profitability.

The structure of the Chinese economy may inhibit our ability to expand our business.

The Chinese economy differs from the economies of most countries belonging to the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, or OECD, in several ways. For example, state-owned enterprises constitute a large portion of the Chinese economy. In addition, weak corporate governance practices and the lack of flexible currency exchange policies continue to persist. As a result of these differences, we may not develop in the same way or at the same rate as might be expected if the Chinese economy were similar to those of the OECD member countries.

Our business is largely subject to the uncertain legal environment in China.

The Chinese legal system is a civil law system based on written statutes. Unlike common law systems, it is a system in which precedents set in earlier legal cases are not generally used. Laws, regulations and legal requirements relating to foreign investments in China are still evolving, and their interpretation and enforcement involve uncertainties. These uncertainties could limit the legal protections available to foreign investors, such as the right of foreign enterprises to hold required business licenses and permits.

It may be difficult for our stockholders to affect service of process against our subsidiaries or our officers and directors.

Our operating subsidiaries were organized under the laws of China and substantially all of their assets are located outside the U.S. In addition, our executive officers and directors are residents of China and substantially all of their assets are located outside the U.S. As a result, it could be difficult for our stockholders to affect service of process in the U.S., or to enforce a judgment obtained in the U.S., against our officers and directors.

Restrictions on currency exchange may limit our ability to receive and use our revenues effectively.

The majority of our revenues are settled in Renminbi and U.S. dollars, and any future restrictions on currency exchanges may limit our ability to use revenue generated in Renminbi to fund any future business activities outside China or to make dividends or other payments in U.S. dollars. Although the Chinese government introduced regulations in 1996 to allow greater convertibility of the Renminbi for current account transactions, significant restrictions still remain. For instance, foreign enterprises may only buy, sell or remit foreign currencies after providing valid commercial documents at banks in China authorized to conduct foreign exchange business. In addition, conversion of Renminbi for capital account items, including direct investment and loans, is subject to governmental approval in China, and companies are required to open and maintain separate foreign exchange accounts for capital account items. The Chinese regulatory authorities may impose more stringent restrictions on the convertibility of the Renminbi in the future.

Failure to comply with PRC regulations relating to the establishment of offshore special purpose companies by PRC residents may have negative effects on our company.

In October 2005, the PRC State Administration of Foreign Exchange, or SAFE, issued the Notice on Relevant Issues in the Foreign Exchange Control over Financing and Return Investment Through Special Purpose Companies by Residents Inside China, generally referred to as Circular 75, which required PRC residents to register with the local SAFE branch before establishing or acquiring control over an offshore special purpose company, or SPV, for the purpose of engaging in an equity financing outside of China on the strength of domestic PRC assets originally held by those residents. Internal implementing guidelines issued by SAFE, which became public in June 2007 (known as Notice 106), further expanded the reach of Circular 75.

ILH acquired certain interests in the Lorain Group Companies controlled by Si Chen, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. Pursuant to Notice No. 75 and Notice 106, if a PRC resident has completed a round-trip investment through its established SPV but has not yet completed the required procedures of SAFE registration for offshore investment of the SPV, he must retroactively register the SPV with SAFE.

In order to avoid such SAFE registration requirements, a Japanese individual, Hisashi Akazawa, was designated as a nominee holder of ILH when ILH was established. Mr. Akazawa granted an option to our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Chen, allowing Mr. Chen to buy 90% of Mr. Akazawa’s interest in the Company at a fixed price at a future time in accordance with the terms of an option agreement between the two parties. On December 22, 2008, Mr. Chen exercised this option. In addition, on that date, Mr. Chen acquired all of the remaining shares of our company held by Mr. Akazawa. As a result, Mr. Chen is the beneficiary of ILH and may be required to register with and obtain approvals from SAFE or its agency in connection with respect to the direct offshore investment activities related to the acquisition of the Lorain Group Companies.

If the failure to identify and characterize Mr. Chen as a beneficial owner of ILH is determined by the PRC authorities to be a serious violation of the requirements of the PRC Company Law and the PRC Regulation of Registration of Companies, the Lorain Group Companies may be ordered by the company registration authority in the PRC to make corrections on its filed registration, to be fined an amount no less than RMB 5,000 and no more than RMB 50,000 or, in the worse scenario, to have its company registration certificate revoked or its business licenses canceled.

Moreover, because of uncertainty over how Circular 75 will be interpreted and implemented, and how or whether SAFE will apply it to us, we cannot predict how it will affect our business operations or future strategies, such as our present and prospective PRC subsidiaries’ ability to conduct foreign exchange activities including the remittance of dividends and foreign currency-denominated borrowings. In addition, our PRC resident beneficial holders may be subject to compliance with Circular 75. Such holders may not be able to complete the necessary registration procedures required by Circular 75.

Our financial condition is affected by the foreign exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and the Renminbi.

Our financial condition is affected by the foreign exchange rates, primarily the rate between the U.S. dollar and the Renminbi. In the event that the Renminbi appreciates against the U.S. dollar, our costs will increase.

Risks Related To the Market For Our Stock

Certain of our stockholders have the ability to delay or prevent adoption of important business decisions based on their ownership of a significant percentage of our outstanding voting securities.

Mr. Chen is the record owner of approximately 47% of our outstanding voting securities. As a result, he possesses significant influence over our business. For instance, Mr. Chen may elect our board of directors, authorize significant corporate transactions or prevent a future change in control of our company.

Certain provisions of our Certificate of Incorporation may make it more difficult for a third party to effect a change- in-control.

Our Certificate of Incorporation authorizes our board of directors to issue up to 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock without stockholder approval. The preferred stock may be issued in one or more series, the terms of which may be determined at the time of issuance by the board of directors without further action by the stockholders. These terms may contain voting rights, including the right to vote as a series on particular matters, preferences as to dividends and liquidation, conversion rights and redemption rights provisions. The issuance of any preferred stock could diminish the rights of holders of our common stock, and therefore could reduce the value of such common stock. In addition, specific rights granted to future holders of preferred stock could be used to restrict our ability to merge with, or sell assets to, a third party. The ability of our board of directors to issue preferred stock could make it more difficult to acquire our company and could negatively affect the market price of our common stock.

The exercise of outstanding warrants issuable for shares of our common stock may cause dilution to existing shareholders.

There are currently warrants outstanding to purchase up to an aggregate of 2,336,179 shares of our common stock. The term of 1,753,909 of these warrants expire in April 2015, the term of 501,115 of these warrants expire in October 2012, and the term of 81,155 of these warrants expire in January 2014. The exercise prices of these warrants range from $2.81 to $4.25 per share, subject to adjustment. If holders of these warrants exercise the warrants in exchange for shares of our common stock, such issuances may have a dilutive effect on the stock ownership of existing shareholders and may harm the market price of our stock. Furthermore, if we were to attempt to obtain additional financing during the term of these warrants, the terms on which we obtain such financing may be adversely affected by the existence of these warrants.

We do not expect to pay dividends in the future, and any return on your investment may be limited to the value of the shares you acquire.

Other than a special cash dividend which we paid to holders of our common stock as of April 16, 2007, we have never declared or paid cash dividends. We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future and any return on your investment may be limited to the value of the shares of our common stock that you acquire. We currently intend to retain and use any future earnings for the development and expansion of our business.

Item 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA
Not applicable.
Item 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Overview
We are an integrated food manufacturing company headquartered in Shandong Province, China. We develop, manufacture and sell the following types of food products:

• chestnut products,
• convenience foods (including ready-to-cook, or RTC, foods, ready-to-eat, or RTE, foods and meals ready-to-eat, or MRE); and
• frozen food products.

We conduct our production activities in China. Our products are sold in 26 provinces and administrative regions in China and 42 foreign countries. We believe that we are the largest chestnut processor and manufacturer in China. We have developed brand equity for our chestnut products in China, Japan and South Korea over the past 10 to 15 years. We produced 57 high value-added processed chestnut products in 2010. We derive most of our revenues from sales in China, Japan and South Korea. In 2010, our primary strategy was to expand our brand equity in the Chinese market for our convenience food products while maintaining the steady growth and brand recognition for our chestnut products and frozen products, we will continue to execute in 2011. In addition, we are working to expand our marketing efforts in Asia, Europe and the Middle East. We currently have limited sales and marketing activity in the United States, although our long-term plan is to significantly expand our activities there.

Production Factors that Affect our Financial and Operational Condition

Our business depends on obtaining a reliable supply of various agricultural products, including chestnuts, vegetables, fruits, red meat, fish, eggs, rice, flour and packaging products. During 2010, the cost of our raw materials increased from $81,501,168 to $102,751,348, for an increase of approximately 26.1% . We may have to increase the number of our suppliers of raw materials and expand our own agricultural operations in the future to meet growing production demands. Despite our efforts to control our supply of raw materials and maintain good relationships with our suppliers, we could lose one or more of our suppliers at any time. The loss of several suppliers may be difficult to replace and could increase our reliance on higher cost or lower quality suppliers, which could negatively affect our profitability. In addition, if we have to increase the number of our suppliers of raw materials in the future to meet growing production demands, we may not be able to locate new suppliers who could provide us with sufficient materials to meet our needs. Any interruptions to, or decline in, the amount or quality of our raw materials supply could materially disrupt our production and adversely affect our business and financial condition and financial prospects.

The average price that we paid for chestnuts in 2010 and 2009 was approximately $1,286 per metric ton and $868 per metric ton, respectively, excluding value added taxes. In past few years and most notably last year, increasing inflation pressures weighed on the Chinese economy, as well as on agricultural products. We do not have effective means and do not currently hedge against changes in our raw material prices. Consequently, if the costs of our raw materials increase further and we are unable to offset these increases by raising the prices of our products, our profit margins and financial condition could be adversely affected.

- 23 -

---

Uncertainties that Affect our Financial Condition

We spend a significant amount of cash on our operations, principally to procure raw materials for our products. Many of our suppliers, including chestnut, vegetable and fruit farmers, and suppliers of packaging materials, require us to pay for their supplies in cash on the same day that such supplies are delivered to us. However, some of the suppliers with whom we have a long-standing business relationship allow us to pay on credit. We fund the majority of our working capital requirements out of cash flow generated from operations. If we fail to generate sufficient sales, or if our suppliers stop offering us credit terms, we may not have sufficient liquidity to fund our operating costs and our business could be adversely affected.

We also funded approximately 43.9% and 71.2% of our working capital requirements in 2010 and 2009, respectively, from the proceeds of short-term loans from Chinese banks. We expect to continue to do so in the future. Such loans are generally secured by our fixed assets, receivables and/or guarantees by third parties. Our average loan balance from short-term bank loans in 2010 and 2009 were approximately $36.3 million and $32.8 million, respectively. The term of almost all such loans is one year or less. Historically, we have rolled over such loans on an annual basis. However, commencing 2010, the Chinese government is implementing more stringent credit policies to curb inflation and soaring property prices, which could negatively impact our ability to obtain or roll over these short term loans, and hence not having sufficient funds available to pay all of our borrowings upon maturity. Failure to roll over our short-term borrowings at maturity or to service our debt could result in the imposition of penalties, including increases in rates of interest, legal actions against us by our creditors, or even insolvency. In addition, we completed two private placement financings in September 2010 and October 2009 with net proceeds of $9.0 million and $10.9 million, respectively, the proceeds of which were primarily used as working capital. We can provide no assurances that we will be able to enter into any future financing or refinancing agreements on terms favorable to us, especially considering the current instability of the capital markets.

We anticipate that our existing capital resources, cash flows from operations, current and expected short-term bank loans, as well as remaining proceeds from the September 2010 private placement and the loan from DEG will be adequate to satisfy our liquidity requirements through 2011. However, if available liquidity is not sufficient to meet our operating and loan obligations as they come due, our plans include considering pursuing alternative financing arrangements or further reducing expenditures as necessary to meet our cash requirements. However, there is no assurance that, if required, we will be able to raise additional capital or reduce discretionary spending to provide the required liquidity. Currently, the capital markets for small capitalization companies are difficult and banking institutions have become stringent in their lending requirements. Accordingly, we cannot be sure of the availability or terms of any third party financing.

The crisis of the financial and credit markets worldwide in the second half of 2008 has led to a severe economic recession worldwide. Furthermore, the European countries experienced severe debt crisis during 2010 which further weighed on the global economic conditions as well as the financial market. The outlook for 2011 is still uncertain, but continuation or worsening of unfavorable economic conditions, including the ongoing global economy and capital markets disruptions, could have an adverse impact on our business, operating results or financial condition in a number of ways. For example, we may experience declines in revenues, profitability and cash flows as a result of reduced orders, delays in receiving orders, delays or defaults in payment or other factors caused by the economic problems of our customers and prospective customers. We may experience supply chain delays, disruptions or other problems associated with financial constraints faced by our suppliers and subcontractors. In addition, changes and volatility in the equity, credit and foreign exchange markets and in the competitive landscape make it increasingly difficult for us to predict our revenues and earnings into the future.

In 2010 and 2009, some of our customers, including some of our large supermarket customers, delayed their payments for up to 60 to 90 days beyond their term. Our cash flow suffered while waiting for such payments. Consequently, at times we had to delay payments to our suppliers and to postpone business expansion as a result of these delayed payments. Starting from 2008, we gradually shortened credit terms for many of our international and domestic customers from between 30 and 180 days to between 30 and 60 days. Our large customers may fail to meet these shortened credit terms, in which case we may not have sufficient cash flow to fund our operating costs and our business could be adversely affected.

Year Ended December 31, 2010 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2009

Revenue

Net Revenues. Net revenues increased by $37.4 million, or approximately 25.5%, to $184.2 million in 2010 from $146.8 million in 2009. This increase was attributable to the increased revenues generated from sales of each of our product segments, as reflected in the following table:

(in thousands		2010			2009			Increase /			Increase /
of U.S. dollars)		Revenues			Revenues			Decrease			Decrease
		($)			($)			($)			(%)
Chestnut Products		101,165			89,117			12,009			13.5%
Convenience Products		56,752			34,624			22,128			63.9%

Total		184,177			146,772			37,405			25.5%

The greatest increase in volume sold in 2010, as compared to 2009, was in the domestic PRC market. Revenues from sales in the Chinese domestic market increased by approximately $31.5 million, or approximately 30.5%, in 2010. As a percentage of total revenues, revenues from sales in the domestic PRC market increased to approximately 73.3% from approximately 70.5% in 2009.

In addition, in 2010, revenues from sales to Malaysia, Netherlands, United Kingdom, and United States as well as other countries increased, in the aggregate, approximately $11.1 million, or 48.3%, compared to 2009, partially offset by a decrease of an aggregate of $5.2 million, or 25.4%, of sales to Belgium, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, South Korea as well as other countries compared to 2009. See Note 16 to the financial statements contained elsewhere in this report for more information on the breakdown of our sales per geographic region.

Cost of Revenues. Our cost of revenues increased $28.2 million, or approximately 24.7%, to $142.3 million in 2010 from $114.1 million in 2009. This increase was attributable to the following factors, by percentage:

Category		Allocation of
		Increase in
		Cost
		of Revenues
		(%)
Raw Materials		26.1
Other Allocated Overhead		11.3
(depreciation, utilities, freight, equipment consumables)
Wages		5.5

Raw material costs increased to $102,751,348, or approximately 26.1%, in 2010 from $81,501,168 in 2009, primarily reflecting our increase operation and sales. Overhead expenses increased primarily due to increased depreciation expenses related to our new production lines in Junan Hongrun as well as the new storage facility in Dongguan Lorain. Wages increased due to increased employee base.

The following table reflects the changes in our cost of revenues in 2010 as compared to 2009 among our different segments:

(thousands of U.S. dollars)		2010 Cost of			2009 Cost of			Increase/
		Revenues			Revenues			(Decrease)
		($)			($)			(%)
Chestnut Products		77,136			68,263			13.0

Frozen Products		21,040			18,854			11.6
Total		142, 293			114,064			24.7

Gross Profit. Our gross profit increased $9.2 million, or 28.1%, to $41.9 million in 2010 from $32.7 million in 2009 as a result of higher net revenues, partially offset by higher cost of revenues, for the reasons indicated above.

Operating Expenses

Selling and Marketing Expenses. Our selling and marketing expenses increased approximately $2.1 million, or 32.6%, to $8.6 million in 2010 from $6.5 million in fiscal year 2009. The following table reflects the main factors that contributed to this increase as well as the dollar amount that each factor contributed to this increase:

(in U.S. dollars)		Increase in
		costs in 2010
		over 2009
Wages (sales personnel)		539,736
Transportation		1,285,529
Advertising		143,324
Customer Entertainment		137,198
Port Fee		232,478

The increases listed in the table above were partially offset by an aggregate of $624,925 decreases of other factors, including utility, commission and sea transportation.

General and Administrative Expenses. Our general and administrative expenses increased approximately $2.2 million, or 59.2%, to $5.8 million in 2010 from $3.6 million in 2009. The following table reflects the main factors that contributed to this increase as well as the dollar amount that each factor contributed to this increase:

	Increase in costs in 2010 over 2009
Wage and Social Security	540,983
Employee Welfare	236,924
Appraisal Expenses	48,588
Stock Option Expense	837,512

Government Subsidy Income

Government subsidy income increased from approximately $0.4 million in 2009 to approximately $1.3 million in 2010, representing grants received from the Hubei government, Junan County government and Miyun County government to assist us in our research and business development.

Income Before Taxation and Minority Interest

Income before taxation and minority interest increased $5.5 million, or 28.4%, to $25.1 million in 2010 from $19.5 million in 2009 as a result of higher revenues, partially offset by higher costs of revenues and operating expenses, for the reasons indicated above.

Income Taxes

Income taxes increased $1.6 million, or 38.1%, to $5.8 million in 2010, as compared to $4.2 million in 2009. This increase was attributable to the higher income earned in 2010 as compared to 2009. Effective January 1, 2008, the PRC government implemented a new 25% tax rate across the board for all enterprises, without any tax holiday. However, the PRC government has established a set of transition rules to allow enterprises that already started tax holidays before January 1, 2008 to continue utilizing such tax holidays until they are fully utilized. The income tax rates applicable to our Chinese operating subsidiaries in 2009, 2010, and 2011 are depicted in the following table:

		2009			2010			2011
Income Tax
Junan Hongrun		25%			25%			25%
Luotian Lorain		15%			15%			25%
Beijing Lorain		15%			15%			15%
Shangdong Lorain		25%			25%			25%
Dongguan Lorain		-			25%			25%
Shandong Greenpia		-			25%			25%

Minority Interest.

Shandong Economic Development Investment holds 19.8% of the equity of our subsidiary Shandong Lorain, which is reflected in the minority interest of $1.4 million in 2010 and $0.9 million in 2009.

Net Income.

Net income increased $3.4 million, or 23.8%, to $17.8 million in 2010 from $14.4 million in fiscal year 2009, as a result of the factors described above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

General

Our primary capital needs have been to fund the working capital requirements necessitated by our sales growth, adding new products and expanding our facilities. In the past, our primary sources of financing have been cash generated from operations and short-term loans from banks in China. In October 2009 and September 2010, we obtained approximately $11 million and 9 million, respectively, from two private placement transactions. We also secured a $15 million loan from Deutsche Investitions- und Entwicklungsgesellshaft (“DEG”) in May 2010 which we have drawn down $5 million as of December 2010. Proceeds from the private placement transactions and cash drawn down from the DEG loan, together with cash generated from operations and short-term bank loans, have been primarily used to fund our working capital needs, as well as addition to our construction in progress and purchase of fixed assets. At December 31, 2010 and 2009, cash and cash equivalents (including restricted cash) were $15.0 million $13.4 million, respectively.

We expect to continue to finance our operations and working capital needs in 2011 from cash generated from operations and short-term bank loans. In addition, we currently plan to finance or refinance approximately $8.8 million in the form of short-term bank loans in 2011. We expect that anticipated cash flows from operations and short-term bank loans will be sufficient to fund our operations through at least the next twelve months.

If available liquidity is not sufficient to meet our operating and loan obligations as they come due, our plans include pursuing alternative financing arrangements or reducing expenditures as necessary to meet our cash requirements. However, there is no assurance that we will be able to raise additional capital or reduce discretionary spending to provide liquidity, if needed. Currently, the capital markets for small capitalization companies are difficult. Accordingly, we cannot be sure of the availability or terms of any alternative financing arrangements.

The following table provides detailed information about our net cash flow for all financial statements periods presented in this report.

Cash Flows Data:
(in thousands of U.S. dollars)		For year ended December 31,
		2010			2009
Net cash flows provided by (used in) operating activities		24,429			(10,843	)
Net cash flows provided by (used in) investing activities		(35,649	)		(7,280	)
Net cash flows provided by (used in) financing activities		7,837			26,503	)

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities for 2010 was $24.4 million and net cash used in operating activities for 2009 was $10.8 million. The increase of approximately $35.3 million in net cash flows provided in operating activities resulted primarily from an increase in net income of $3.9 million, an additional decrease in prepayments of $25.9 million, and a lower decrease in accounts and other payables of $6.2 million, partially offset by additional increase in inventory of $1.2 million.

Investing Activities

During 2010, our uses of cash for investment activities are primarily purchase of plant and equipment as well as addition to constructions in progress related to the production lines and employee dormitory in Junan Hongrun as well as the storage facility in Dongguan Lorain. Net cash used in investing activities for 2010 and 2009 were $35.6 million and $7.3 million, respectively, with the increase of approximately $28.4 million resulted primarily from an increase of $15.7 million for the purchase of plant and equipment and an increase of $10.7 million for payments of construction in progress.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities for 2010 and 2009 were $7.8 million and $26.5 million, respectively. The decrease of approximately $18.7 million in net cash provided by financing activities resulted primarily from an increase of $38.1 million for repayment of bank borrowings, partially offset by an increase of approximately $11.9 million in proceeds from bank borrowings and $9.5 million additional increase in bank note financings.

Loan Facilities

As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, we carried $25.2 million and $35.5 million short term bank loans from Chinese domestic banks. Please refer to Note 9 of the consolidated financial statements for details.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles requires our management to make assumptions, estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements, including the notes thereto, and related disclosures of commitments and contingencies, if any. We consider our critical accounting policies to be those that require the more significant judgments and estimates in the preparation of financial statements, including the following:

Method of Accounting -- We maintain our general ledger and journals with the accrual method accounting for financial reporting purposes. The financial statements and notes are representations of management. Accounting policies adopted by us conform to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America and have been consistently applied in the presentation of financial statements, which are compiled on the accrual basis of accounting.

Use of estimates -- The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Management makes these estimates using the best information available at the time the estimates are made; however, actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

- 28 -

---

The use of estimates is critical to carrying value of asset accounts such as accounts receivable, inventory, fixed assets, and intangible assets. We use estimates to account for the related bad debt allowance, inventory impairment charges, depreciation and amortization of our assets. In the food processing industry these accounts have a significant impact on the valuation of our balance sheet and the results of our operations.

Principles of consolidation -- The consolidated financial statements are presented in US Dollars and include the accounts of the Company and its commonly controlled entity. All significant inter-company balances and transactions are eliminated in combination.

As of December 31, 2010, the particulars of the commonly controlled entities are as follows:

		Place of			Attributable equity			Registered
Name of Company		incorporation			interest %			capital
Shandong Lorain Co., Ltd		PRC			80.2		$	12,234,145
Luotian Lorain Co., Ltd		PRC			100			3,830,848
Junan Hongrun Foodstuff Co., Ltd		PRC			100			42,252,427
Beijing Lorain Co., Ltd		PRC			100			1,512,447
Shandong Greenpia Foodstuff Co.,Ltd		PRC			100			2,323,119
Dongguan Lorain Co,,Ltd		PRC			100			151,245
International Lorain Holding Inc.		Cayman Islands			100			47,065,474

Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets -- The long-lived assets held and used by us are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of assets may not be recoverable. It is reasonably possible that these assets could become impaired as a result of technology or other industry changes. Determination of recoverability of assets to be held and used is by comparing the carrying amount of an asset to future net undiscounted cash flows to be generated by the assets.

If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.

During the reporting years, there was no impairment loss.

Revenue recognition -- Our revenue recognition policies are in compliance with Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) 104. Sales revenue is recognized at the date of shipment to customers when a formal arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, the delivery is completed, we have no other significant obligations and collectability is reasonably assured. Payments received before all of the relevant criteria for revenue recognition are satisfied are recorded as unearned revenue.

Our revenue consists of invoiced value of goods, net of a value-added tax (VAT). No product return or sales discount allowance is made as products delivered and accepted by customers are normally not returnable and sales discount is normally not granted after products are delivered.

We believe that when custody and title of goods has been passed to our customers, or third party transporters revenue is recognized. Our industry does not call for revenue recognition under multiple deliverable arrangements.

Financial Instruments

Our financial instruments are cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other receivable, advances to suppliers, advances to employees, bank loans and notes, accounts payable, other payable, accrued liabilities, and long-term liabilities. The recorded values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other receivable, advances to suppliers, advances to employees, bank loans and notes, accounts payable, other payable, and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values based on their short-term nature. The recorded values of long-term liabilities approximate their fair values, as interest approximates market rates.

We have the accounting policy regarding financial instruments for our financial statements in 2009 and 2010. We consider it critical because our business is becoming more global in nature and the use of fair value for financial instruments has been widely adopted by accounting bodies around the globe. With financial statements that are widely accepted and comparable in many jurisdictions we will have greater access to capital locally.

Recent accounting pronouncements

In June 2009, FASB issued FASB Statement No. 166, Accounting for Transfers for Financial Assets (FASB ASC 860 Transfers and Servicing) and FASB Statement No. 167 (FASB ASC 810 Consolidation), a revision to FASB Interpretation No. 46 (Revised December 2003), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (FASB ASC 810 Consolidation).

Statement 166 is a revision to FASB Statement No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities (FASB ASC 860 Transfers and Servicing), and will require more information about transfers of financial assets, including securitization transactions, and where entities have continuing exposure to the risks related to transferred financial assets. It eliminates the concept of a “qualifying special-purpose entity,” changes the requirements for derecognizing financial assets, and requires additional disclosures. Statement No. 166 (FASB ASC 860 Transfers and Servicing) must be applied as of the beginning of each reporting entity’s first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. Earlier application is prohibited. This Statement must be applied to transfers occurring on or after the effective date. The Company has evaluated and determined that there was no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of the operations.

Statement 167 is a revision to FASB Interpretation No. 46 (Revised December 2003), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (FASB ASC 810 Consolidation), and changes how a reporting entity determines when an entity that is insufficiently capitalized or is not controlled through voting (or similar rights) should be consolidated. The determination of whether a reporting entity is required to consolidate another entity is based on, among other things, the other entity’s purpose and design and the reporting entity’s ability to direct the activities of the other entity that most significantly impact the other entity’s economic performance. Statement No. 167 (FASB ASC 810 Consolidation) shall be effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity’s first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period, and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. Earlier application is prohibited. The Company has evaluated and determined that there was no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of the operations.

On June 30, 2009, FASB issued FASB Statement No. 168, Accounting Standards Codification™ ( FASB ASC 105 Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162 the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. On the effective date of this standard, FASB Accounting Standards Codification™ (ASC) became the source of authoritative U.S. accounting and reporting standards for nongovernmental entities, in addition to guidance issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). This statement is effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. If an accounting change results from the application of this guidance, an entity should disclose the nature and reason for the change in accounting principle in their financial statements. This new standard flattens the GAAP hierarchy to two levels: one that is authoritative (in FASB ASC) and one that is non-authoritative (not in FASB ASC). Exceptions include all rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under the authority of federal securities laws, which are sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants, and certain grandfathered guidance having an effective date before March 15, 1992. Statement No. 168 is the final standard that will be issued by FASB in that form. There will no longer be, for example, accounting standards in the form of statements, staff positions, Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) abstracts, or AICPA Accounting Statements of Position. The Company has adopted the new accounting standard and determined that there was no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of the operations.

In April 2010, the FASB issued an Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No.2010-13,”Compensation-Stock Compensation” (Topic 718): Effect of Denominating the Exercise Price of a Share-Based Payment Award in the Currency of the Market in Which the Underlying Equity Security Trades,” which address the classification of a share-based payment award with an exercise price denominated in the currency of a market in which the underlying equity security trades. Topic 718 is amended to clarify that a 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 shall not be considered to contain a market, performance, or service condition. Therefore, such an award is not to be classified as a liability if it otherwise qualifies as equity classification. The amendments in this update should be applied by recording a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. The cumulative-effect adjustment should be calculated for all awards outstanding as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which the amendments are initially applied, as if the amendments had been applied consistently since the inception of the award. ASU 2010-13 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2010 and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of the operations.

REPORT OF REGISTERED INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To:	The Board of Directors and Stockholders of
	American Lorain Corporation

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of American Lorain Corporation as of December 31, 2010 and 2009 and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of American Lorain Corporation as of December 31, 2010 and 2009 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

AMERICAN LORAIN CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2010 AND 2009

(Stated in US Dollars)

1.	ORGANIZATION, BASIS OF PRESENTATION, AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES

	(a)	Organization history of American Lorain Corporation (formerly known as Millennium Quest, Inc.)
		American Lorain Corporation (the “Company” or “ALN”) was originally a Delaware corporation incorporated on February 4, 1986. From inception through May 3, 2007, the Company did not engage in any active business operations other than in search and evaluation of potential business opportunity to become an acquiree of a reverse-merger deal. On May 3, 2007, the Company entered into a share exchange agreement as described under “Reverse-Merger” below. On November 12, 2009, the Company filed a statement of merger in the state of Nevada to transfer the Company’s jurisdiction from Delaware to Nevada.
	(b)	Organization History of International Lorain Holding Inc. and its subsidiaries
		ALN owns 100% of the equity of International Lorain Holding Inc. (“ILH”). ILH is a Cayman Islands company incorporated on August 4, 2006 and was wholly-owned by Mr. Hisashi Akazawa until May 3, 2007. ILH presently has two direct wholly-owned subsidiaries, Junan Hongrun and Luotian Lorain, and three indirectly wholly-owned subsidiaries through Junan Hongrun, which are Beijing Lorain, Dongguan Lorain, and Shandong Greenpia Foodstuff Co., Ltd. (“Shandong Greenpia”).
		In addition, the Company directly and indirectly has 80.2% ownership of Shandong Lorain. The rest of the 19.8%, which is owned by the State under the name of Shandong Economic Development Investment Co. Ltd., is not included as a part of the Group.
		On April 9, 2009, the Company, through its Junan Hongrun subsidiary, invested cash to establish Dongguan Lorain. Dongguan Lorain is indirectly 100% beneficially owned by the Company.
		On June 28, 2010, the Company signed an equity transfer agreement with Shandong Greenpia. Shandong Greenpia was originally directly owned by Taebong Inc. and Shandong Luan Trade Company. The Company paid $2,100,000 to Korean Taebong Inc. for 50% equity of Shandong Greenpia on September 20, 2010. On September 23, 2010, the Company issued 731,707 shares of restricted stock at an agreed price of $2.87 per share to the owner of Shandong Luan Trade Company, Mr. Ji Zhenwei, for the remaining 50% equity of Shandong Greenpia. Since September 23, 2010, Shandong Greenpia was directly owned by both Junan Hongrun and ILH. As a result, Shandong Greenpia is 100% owned by the Company. Accordingly, the Company booked a gain of $383,482 which is included in the statement of income as other income.
	(c)	Reverse-Merger
		On May 3, 2007, the Company entered into a share exchange agreement with ILH whereby the Company consummated its acquisition of ILH by issuance of 697,663 Series B voting convertible preferred shares to the shareholders of ILH in exchange of 5,099,503 ILH shares. Concurrently on May 3, 2007, the Company also entered into a securities purchase agreement with certain investors and Mr. Hisashi Akazawa and Mr. Si Chen (each a “beneficial owner”) whereby the Company issued 319,913 (after reverse-split at 32.84 from 10,508,643) common shares to its shareholders as consideration of the Company’s reverse-merger with Lorain.
		The share exchange transaction is sometimes referred to hereafter as the “reverse-merger transaction.” The share exchange transaction has been accounted for as a recapitalization of ALN where the Company (the legal acquirer) is considered the accounting acquiree and ILH (the acquiree) is considered the accounting acquirer. As a result of this transaction, the Company is deemed to be a continuation of the business of ILH.
		Accordingly, the accompanying consolidated financial statements are those of the accounting acquirer, ILH. The historical stockholders’ equity of the accounting acquirer prior to the share exchange has been retroactively restated as if the share exchange transaction occurred as of the beginning of the first period presented. See also Note 14 Capitalization.

(Stated in US Dollars)

		The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
	(e)	Investment securities
		The Company classifies securities it holds for investment purposes into trading or available-for-sale. Trading securities are bought and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term. All securities not included in trading securities are classified as available-for-sale.
		Trading and available-for-sale securities are recorded at fair value. Unrealized holding gains and losses on trading securities are included in the net income. Unrealized holding gains and losses, net of the related tax effect, on available for sale securities are excluded from net income and are reported as a separate component of other comprehensive income until realized. Realized gains and losses from the sale of available-for-sale securities are determined on a specific-identification basis.
		A decline in the market value of any available-for-sale security below cost that is deemed to be other-than- temporary results in a reduction in carrying amount to fair value. The impairment is charged as an expense to the statement of income and comprehensive income and a new cost basis for the security is established. To determine whether impairment is other-than-temporary, the Company considers whether it has the ability and intent to hold the investment until a market price recovery and considers whether evidence indicating the cost of the investment is recoverable outweighs evidence to the contrary. Evidence considered in this assessment includes the reasons for the impairment, the severity and duration of the impairment, changes in value subsequent to year end, and forecasted performance of the investee.
		Premiums and discounts are amortized or accreted over the life of the related available-for-sale security as an adjustment to yield using the effective-interest method. Dividend and interest income are recognized when earned.
	(f)	Trade receivables
		Trade receivables are recognized and carried at the original invoice amount less allowance for any uncollectible amounts. An estimate for doubtful accounts is made when collection of the full amount is no longer probable. Bad debts are written off as incurred.
	(g)	Inventories
		Inventories consisting of finished goods and raw materials are stated at the lower of cost or market value. Finished goods are comprised of direct materials, direct labor and an appropriate proportion of overhead.
	(h)	Customer deposits and advances to suppliers
		Customer deposits were received from customers in connection with orders of products to be delivered in future periods.
		Advance to suppliers is a good faith deposit paid to the supplier for the purpose of committing the supplier to provide product promptly upon delivery of the Company’s purchase order for raw materials, supplies, equipment, building materials etc. Pursuant to the Company’s arrangements with its suppliers, this deposit is generally 20% of the total amount contracted for. This type of transaction is classified as a prepayment category under the account name “Advance to Suppliers” until such time as the Company’s purchase order is delivered, at which point this account is reduced by reclassification of the applicable amount to the appropriate asset account such as inventory or fixed assets or construction in progress.
	(i)	Property, plant and equipment

Plant and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method. Estimated useful lives of the plant and equipment are as follows:

	Buildings		40 years
	Landscaping, plant and tree		30 years
	Machinery and equipment		10 years
	Motor vehicles		10 years
	Office equipment		5 years

		The cost and related accumulated depreciation of assets sold or otherwise retired are eliminated from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in the statement of income. The cost of maintenance and repairs is charged to income as incurred, whereas significant renewals and betterments are capitalized.
	(j)	Construction in progress
		Construction in progress represents direct and indirect construction or acquisition costs. The construction in progress is transferred to plant and equipment when substantially all the activities necessary to prepare the assets for their intended use are completed. No depreciation is provided until the asset is completed and ready for intended use.
	(k)	Land Use Rights
		Land use rights are carried at cost and amortized on a straight-line basis over a specified period.
	(l)	Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
		The long-lived assets held by the Company are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of assets may not be recoverable. It is reasonably possible that these assets could become impaired as a result of technology or other industry changes. An impairment is present if carrying amount of an asset is less than its undiscounted cash flows to be generated.
		If an asset is considered impaired, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair market value of the asset. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. The Company believes no impairment has occurred to its assets during 2010.
	(m)	Advertising
		All advertising costs are expensed as incurred.
	(n)	Shipping and handling
		All shipping and handling are expensed as incurred.
	(o)	Research and development
		All research and development costs are expensed as incurred.
	(p)	Retirement benefits
		Retirement benefits in the form of contributions under defined contribution retirement plans to the relevant authorities are charged to the consolidated statement of income as incurred.
	(q)	Income taxes

The Company accounts for income tax using an asset and liability approach and allows for recognition of deferred tax benefits in future years. Under the asset and liability approach, deferred taxes are provided for the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. A valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not these items will either expire before the Company is able to realize their benefits, or that future realization is uncertain.

The Company has implemented Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. Income tax liabilities computed according to the United States and People’s Republic of China (PRC) tax laws are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in the financial statements and consists of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes related primarily to differences between the basis of fixed assets and intangible assets for financial and tax reporting. The deferred tax assets and liabilities represent the future tax return consequences of those differences, which will be either taxable or deductible when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled. Deferred taxes also are recognized for operating losses that are available to offset future income taxes. A valuation allowance is created to evaluate deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that these items will either expire before the Company is able to realize that tax benefit, or that future realization is uncertain.

Effective January 1, 2008, PRC government implemented a new 25% tax rate across the board for all enterprises regardless of whether domestic or foreign enterprise without any tax holiday which is defined as "two-year exemption followed by three-year half exemption" hitherto enjoyed by tax payers. As a result of the new tax law of a standard 15% tax rate, tax holidays terminated as of December 31, 2007. However, PRC government has established a set of transition rules to allow enterprises already started tax holidays before January 1, 2008, to continue enjoying the tax holidays until being fully utilized.

The Company is subject to United States Tax according to Internal Revenue Code Sections 951 and 957. Corporate income tax is imposed on progressive rates in the range of: -

			Taxable Income
	Rate		Over			But Not Over			Of Amount Over
	15%		0			50,000			0
	25%		50,000			75,000			50,000
	34%		75,000			100,000			75,000
	39%		100,000			335,000			100,000
	34%		335,000			10,000,000			335,000
	35%		10,000,000			15,000,000			10,000,000
	38%		15,000,000			18,333,333			15,000,000
	35%		18,333,333			-			-

	(r)	Statutory reserves
		Statutory reserves are referring to the amount appropriated from the net income in accordance with laws or regulations, which can be used to recover losses and increase capital, as approved, and are to be used to expand production or operations. The Company transferred $2,445,262 from retained earnings to statutory reserves during 2010. PRC laws prescribe that an enterprise operating at a profit, must appropriate, on an annual basis, an amount equal to 10% of its profit. Such an appropriation is necessary until the reserve reaches a maximum that is equal to 50% of the enterprise’s PRC registered capital.
	(s)	Foreign currency translation
		The accompanying financial statements are presented in United States dollars. The functional currency of the Company is the Renminbi (RMB). The financial statements are translated into United States dollars from RMB at year-end exchange rates as to assets and liabilities and average exchange rates as to revenues and expenses. Capital accounts are translated at their historical exchange rates when the capital transactions occurred.

	Year end RMB : US$ exchange rate		6.6118			6.8372
	Average yearly RMB : US$ exchange rate		6.7788			6.8408

		The RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currency and all foreign exchange transactions must take place through authorized institutions. No representation is made that the RMB amounts could have been, or could be, converted into US Dollars at the rates used in translation.
	(t)	Revenue recognition
		The Company's revenue recognition policies are in compliance with Staff accounting bulletin (SAB) 104. Sales revenue is recognized at the date of shipment to customers when a formal arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, the delivery is completed, no other significant obligations of the Company exist and collectibility is reasonably assured. Payments received before all of the relevant criteria for revenue recognition are satisfied are recorded as unearned revenue.
		The Company's revenue consists of invoiced value of goods, net of a value-added tax (VAT). The Company allows its customers to return products if they are defective. However, this rarely happens and amounts returned have been de minimis.
		The Company gradually switched its sales model from direct sales to third party distributor model and issues 1% sales incentive to distributors. The Company modified it accounting policy for the recognition of revenue accordingly. Given the circumstances of how the Company conducts its incentive program, the Company books the payments settled in cash as a contra account to Gross Revenue, and includes the amount in its reported “net revenue”. The Company has considered the guidance in FASB ASC 605-50 (EITF 01-9) and will account for its sales incentive program accordingly.
	(u)	Earnings per share
		Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the sum of the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding and potential dilutive securities during the year. During the years ended December 31, 2010, 81,155 warrants were issued to certain service providers. During the year ended December 31, 2009, 1,334,573 stock options were granted to employees pursuant to the Company’s equity incentive plan; 2,255,024 warrants were issued to investors in connection with a PIPE financing. These warrants and options could be potentially dilutive if the market price of the Company’s common stock exceeds the exercise price for these securities.
		The Company computes earnings per share (“EPS”) in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, “Earnings per share” (“SFAS No. 128”), and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 98 (“SAB 98”). SFAS No. 128 requires companies with complex capital structures to present basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is measured as the income or loss available to common shareholders divided by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is similar to basic EPS but presents the dilutive effect on a per share basis of potential common shares (e.g., convertible securities, options, and warrants) as if they had been converted at the beginning of the periods presented, or issuance date, if later. Potential common shares that have an anti-dilutive effect (i.e., those that increase income per share or decrease loss per share) are excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS.

(Stated in US Dollars)

		The Company’s financial instruments are cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other receivable, advances to suppliers, advances to employees, bank loans and notes, accounts payable, other payable, dividend payable, accrued liabilities, and long-term liabilities. The recorded values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other receivable, advances to suppliers, advances to employees, bank loans and notes, accounts payable, other payable, dividend payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values based on their short-term nature. The recorded values of long-term liabilities approximate their fair values, as interest approximates market rates.
	(w)	Commitments and contingencies
		Liabilities for loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines and penalties and other sources are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the assessment can be reasonably estimated.
	(x)	Comprehensive income
		Comprehensive income is defined to include all changes in equity except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. Among other disclosures, all items that are required to be recognized under current accounting standards as components of comprehensive income are required to be reported in a financial statement that is presented with the same prominence as other financial statements. The Company’s current component of other comprehensive income includes the foreign currency translation adjustment and unrealized gain or loss.
	(y)	Recent accounting pronouncements
		In June 2009, FASB issued FASB Statement No. 166, Accounting for Transfers for Financial Assets (FASB ASC 860 Transfers and Servicing) and FASB Statement No. 167 (FASB ASC 810 Consolidation), a revision to FASB Interpretation No. 46 (Revised December 2003), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (FASB ASC 810 Consolidation).
		Statement 166 is a revision to FASB Statement No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities (FASB ASC 860 Transfers and Servicing), and will require more information about transfers of financial assets, including securitization transactions, and where entities have continuing exposure to the risks related to transferred financial assets. It eliminates the concept of a “qualifying special-purpose entity,” changes the requirements for derecognizing financial assets, and requires additional disclosures. Statement No. 166 (FASB ASC 860 Transfers and Servicing) must be applied as of the beginning of each reporting entity’s first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. Earlier application is prohibited. This Statement must be applied to transfers occurring on or after the effective date. The Company has evaluated and determined that there was no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of the operations.
		Statement 167 is a revision to FASB Interpretation No. 46 (Revised December 2003), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (FASB ASC 810 Consolidation), and changes how a reporting entity determines when an entity that is insufficiently capitalized or is not controlled through voting (or similar rights) should be consolidated. The determination of whether a reporting entity is required to consolidate another entity is based on, among other things, the other entity’s purpose and design and the reporting entity’s ability to direct the activities of the other entity that most significantly impact the other entity’s economic performance. Statement No. 167 (FASB ASC 810 Consolidation) shall be effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity’s first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period, and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. Earlier application is prohibited. The Company has evaluated and determined that there was no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of the operations.

		On June 30, 2009, FASB issued FASB Statement No. 168, Accounting Standards Codification™ ( FASB ASC 105 Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162 the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. On the effective date of this standard, FASB Accounting Standards Codification™ (ASC) became the source of authoritative U.S. accounting and reporting standards for nongovernmental entities, in addition to guidance issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). This statement is effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. If an accounting change results from the application of this guidance, an entity should disclose the nature and reason for the change in accounting principle in their financial statements. This new standard flattens the GAAP hierarchy to two levels: one that is authoritative (in FASB ASC) and one that is non-authoritative (not in FASB ASC). Exceptions include all rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under the authority of federal securities laws, which are sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants, and certain grandfathered guidance having an effective date before March 15, 1992. Statement No. 168 is the final standard that will be issued by FASB in that form. There will no longer be, for example, accounting standards in the form of statements, staff positions, Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) abstracts, or AICPA Accounting Statements of Position. The Company has adopted the new accounting standard and determined that there was no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of the operations.
		In April 2010, the FASB issued an Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No.2010-13,”Compensation-Stock Compensation” (Topic 718): Effect of Denominating the Exercise Price of a Share-Based Payment Award in the Currency of the Market in Which the Underlying Equity Security Trades,” which address the classification of a share-based payment award with an exercise price denominated in the currency of a market in which the underlying equity security trades. Topic 718 is amended to clarify that a 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 shall not be considered to contain a market, performance, or service condition. Therefore, such an award is not to be classified as a liability if it otherwise qualifies as equity classification. The amendments in this update should be applied by recording a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. The cumulative-effect adjustment should be calculated for all awards outstanding as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which the amendments are initially applied, as if the amendments had been applied consistently since the inception of the award. ASU 2010-13 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2010 and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of the operations.
3.	RESTRICTED CASH
	Restricted Cash represents interest bearing deposits placed with banks to secure banking facilities in the form of loans and notes payable. The restriction of funds is based on time. The funds that collateralize loans are held for 60 days in savings account that pay interest at the prescribed national daily savings account rate. For funds that underline notes payable, the cash is deposited in six month time deposits that pay interest at the national time deposit rate.

5.	OTHER RECEIVABLES
	Other receivables consisted of the following as of December 31, 2010 and 2009:

			12/31/2010			12/31/2009
	Advances to employees for purchase of materials	$	-		$	4,041,986
	Advances to employees for job/travel disbursements		764,725			627,006
	Amount due by a non-related enterprise		215,685			1,999,671
	Other non-related receivables		512,440			1,772,128
		$	1,492,850		$	8,440,791

Advances to employees for job/travel disbursements consisted of advances to employees for transportation, meals, client entertainment, commissions, and procurement of certain raw materials. The advances issued to employees may be carried for extended periods of time because employees may spend several months out in the field working to procure new sales contracts or fulfill existing contracts.

Specifically, the company uses every available employee to arrange purchases with desirable chestnut or other raw material growers. However, because many of these growers are in rural farming areas of China where traditional banking and credit arrangements are difficult to implement, the Company must utilize cash purchases and also must contract for its future needs by placing a good faith deposit in cash with the growers. However none of these advances to employees for delivery to the growers on behalf of the Company are “personal loans” to the employees. Advances to employees for purchase of materials in other receivables are adjusted to advances to suppliers as of December 31, 2010.

Related party receivable consisted of the following as of December 31, 2010 and 2009:

			12/31/2010			12/31/2009
	Chen Si	$	123,467		$	541,245
	Lu Yundong		-			32,358
	Liu Gang		-			29,513
		$	123,467		$	603,116

	Related party receivable represented advances issued by management for job or travel disbursement in the normal course of business. The receivable had no impact on earnings. As with other employees, officers sign notes when cash is issued to them as job or travel disbursement.
6.	INVENTORIES
	Inventories consisted of the following as of December 31, 2010 and 2009:

			12/31/2010			12/31/2009
	Raw materials	$	18,128,883		$	12,014,402
	Finished goods		11,678,315			14,385,715
		$	29,807,198		$	26,400,117

7.	PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT
	Property, plant, and equipment consisted of the following as of December 31, 2010 and 2009:

			12/31/2010			12/31/2009

	Landscaping, plants, and trees accounts for the orchards that the Company has developed for agricultural operations. These orchards as well as the young trees which were purchased as nursery stock are capitalized into fixed assets.

The Company’s loan with DEG will be repaid in semi-annual installments beginning September 15, 2012. The loan was collateralized with the following terms:

	(a.)	Create and register a first ranking mortgage in the amount of about USD 12,000,000 on its land and building in favor of DEG.
	(b.)	Undertake to provide a share pledge of Mr. Si Chen shares in the sponsor in the amount of about USD 12,000,000 and being the majority shareholder in the sponsor in form and substance satisfactory to DEG

	(d.)	Undertake to provide a guarantee from the Shareholder in form and substance satisfactory to DEG

14.	CAPITALIZATION
	Dating back to May 3, 2007, the Company underwent a reverse-merger and a concurrent financing transaction that resulted in 24,923,178 shares of outstanding common stock that remained unchanged until through December 31, 2007. In connection with the financing, the Company also issued 1,037,858 and 489,330 warrants to the PIPE investors and placement agent, respectively. During 2008, several holders of warrants issued in connection with the financing transaction exercised their rights to purchase shares at the prescribed exercise price. The holders of the warrants exercised the right to purchase a total of 360,207 shares; however, because the holders did not pay in cash for the warrants, 110,752 of those shares were cancelled as consideration in lieu of the warrant holders paying in cash. Ultimately, 249,455 of new shares were issued to those who exercised their warrant. The Company also made an adjustment to its outstanding share count for rounding errors as result of the split and reverse splits made at the time of the reverse merger. The number of shares in the adjustment was an addition of seven shares. The Company believes the adjustment of seven shares is immaterial to both prior and current earnings per share calculation. As detailed in the table below, the total number of outstanding shares at December 31, 2010 was 31,419,709.
	During the year 2009, the Company issued 56,393 shares of stock to its employees and vendors and 5,011,169 shares to investors. The Company issued 1,334,573 stock options to employees on July 28, 2009. 1,753,909 shares of Series A warrants and 501,115 shares of Series B warrants were issued to investors on October 28, 2009.

17.	INCOME TAXES
	All of the Company’s operations are in the PRC, and in accordance with the relevant tax laws and regulations of PRC, the corporate income tax rate is 25%.
	The following tables provide the reconciliation of the differences between the statutory and effective tax expenses for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009.

			12/31/2010			12/31/2009

	Effect of tax exemption granted	$	76,199		$	199,841
	Weighted-Average Shares Outstanding Basic		31,507,044			26,075,413
	Per share effect	$	0.002		$	0.008

The difference between the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate and the Company’s effective tax rate was as follows for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009:

			2010			2009
	U.S. federal statutory income tax rate	$	35%		$	35.00%
	Lower rates in PRC, net		-10%			-10.00%
	Tax holiday for foreign investments		-1.75%			-3.38%
	The Company’s effective tax rate	$	23.25%		$	21.62%

Effective January 1, 2008, the PRC government implemented a new 25% tax rate across the board for all enterprises regardless of whether domestic or foreign enterprise without any tax holiday which is defined as “two-year exemption followed by three-year half exemption” hitherto enjoyed by tax payers. As a result of the new tax law of a standard 25% tax rate, tax holidays were terminated as of December 31, 2007. However, PRC government has established a set of transition rules to allow enterprises already started tax holidays before January 1, 2008, to continue enjoying the tax holidays until being fully utilized.

The Company has accrued a deferred tax asset as a result of its net operating loss in 2009 because the Company planned to setup operations in the United States. The company anticipates that the operations within the United States will generate income in the future so that it will be able to take full advantage of the accrued asset. Accordingly the Company has not provided a valuation allowances for the accrued tax asset.

The Company’s has detailed the tax rates for its subsidiaries for 2010 and 2009 in the following table.

	Income Tax Rate		2010			2009
	International Lorain		0%			0%
	Junan Hongran		25%			25%
	Luotian Lorain		15%			15%
	Beijing Lorain		15%			15%
	Shandong Lorain		25%			25%
	Shandong Greenpia		25%			0%

	B.	Interest risk
		The company subject to the interest rate risk when their short term loans become due and require refinancing.
	C.	Economic and political risks
		The Company’s operations are conducted in the PRC. Accordingly, the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations may be influenced by changes in the political, economic, and legal environments in the PRC.
		The Company’s operations in the PRC are subject to special considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in North America and Western Europe. These include risks associated with, among others, the political, economic and legal environment and foreign currency exchange. The Company’s results may be adversely affected by changes in the political and social conditions in the PRC, and by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion, remittances abroad, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things.
	D.	Environmental risks
		The Company has procured environmental licenses required by the PRC government. The Company has both a water treatment facility for water used in its production process and secure transportation to remove waste off site. In the event of an accident, the Company has purchased insurance to cover potential damage to employees, equipment, and local environment.
	E.	Inflation Risk
		Management monitors changes in prices levels. Historically inflation has not materially impacted the company’s financial statements; however, significant increases in the price of raw materials and labor that cannot be passed on the Company’s customers could adversely impact the Company’s results of operations.

AMERICAN LORAIN CORPORATION

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - DECEMBER 31, 2010 AND 2009

(Stated in US Dollars)

1.	ORGANIZATION, BASIS OF PRESENTATION, AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES

	(a)	Organization History of American Lorain Corporation and its subsidiaries
		American Lorain Corporation (the “Company” or “ALN”) is a corporation incorporated on February 4, 1986 and was formerly known as Millennium Quest, Inc. From inception through May 3, 2007, the Company did not engage in any active business operations other than in search and evaluation of potential business opportunity to become an acquiree of a reverse-merger deal. On May 3, 2007, the Company entered into a share exchange agreement. On November 12, 2009, the Company filed a statement of merger in the state of Nevada to transfer the Company’s jurisdiction from Delaware to Nevada.
		On May 3, 2007, the Company entered into a share exchange agreement with International Lorain Holding Inc. (“ILH”), whereby the Company consummated its acquisition of ILH by issuance of 697,663 Series B voting convertible preferred shares to the shareholders of ILH in exchange of 5,099,503 ILH shares. Concurrently on May 3, 2007, the Company also entered into a securities purchase agreement with certain investors and Mr. Hisashi Akazawa and Mr. Si Chen (each a “beneficial owner”) whereby the Company issued 319,913 (after reverse-split at 32.84 from 10,508,643) common shares to its shareholders as consideration of the Company’s reverse-merger with Lorain. The Company owns 100% of ILH.
		ALN owns 100% of the equity of International Lorain Holding Inc. (“ILH”). ILH is a Cayman Islands company incorporated on August 4, 2006 and was wholly-owned by Mr. Hisashi Akazawa until May 3, 2007. ILH presently has two direct wholly-owned subsidiaries, Junan Hongrun and Luotian Lorain, and three indirectly wholly-owned subsidiaries through Junan Hongrun, which are Beijing Lorain, Dongguan Lorain, and Shandong Greenpia Foodstuff Co., Ltd. (“Shandong Greenpia”).
	(b)	Business Activities
		Prior to May 3, 2007, when ALN completed a reverse merger with ILH, ALN did not engage in any active business operations other than in search and evaluation of potential business acquisition target. Currently, ALN mainly serves as holding company of its subsidiaries through the reverse-merger.

2.	SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

	(a)	Method of Accounting
		The Company maintains its general ledger and journals with the accrual method accounting for financial reporting purposes. The financial statements and notes are representations of management. Accounting policies adopted by the Company conform to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America and have been consistently applied in the presentation of financial statements, which are compiled on the accrual basis of accounting. These financial statements have been prepared without consolidating the Company’s subsidiaries which constitutes a departure from GAAP.
	(b)	Use of estimates
		The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Management makes these estimates using the best information available at the time the estimates are made; however actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
	(c)	Economic and political risks
		The Company’s subsidiaries operate in the PRC. Accordingly, the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic and legal environment in the PRC, and by the general state of the PRC economy.

AMERICAN LORAIN CORPORATION

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - DECEMBER 31, 2010 AND 2009

(Stated in US Dollars)

		The Company’s subsidiaries in the PRC are subject to special considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in North America and Western Europe. These include risks associated with, among others, the political, economic and legal environment and foreign currency exchange. The subsidiaries’ results may be adversely affected by changes in the political and social conditions in the PRC, and by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion, remittances abroad, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things.
	(d)	Cash and cash equivalents
		The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
	(e)	Income taxes
		The Company accounts for income tax using an asset and liability approach and allows for recognition of deferred tax benefits in future years. Under the asset and liability approach, deferred taxes are provided for the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. A valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not these items will either expire before the Company is able to realize their benefits, or that future realization is uncertain.
		The Company’s subsidiaries are subject to PRC tax laws.
	(f)	Earnings per share
		Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the sum of the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding and dilutive potential ordinary shares during the years.
		The Company computes earnings per share (“EPS”) in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, “Earnings per share” (“SFAS No. 128”), and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 98 (“SAB 98”). SFAS No. 128 requires companies with complex capital structures to present basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is measured as the income or loss available to common shareholders divided by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is similar to basic EPS but presents the dilutive effect on a per share basis of potential common shares (e.g., convertible securities, options, and warrants) as if they had been converted at the beginning of the periods presented, or issuance date, if later. Potential common shares that have an anti-dilutive effect (i.e., those that increase income per share or decrease loss per share) are excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS.
	(g)	Financial Instruments
		The Company’s financial instruments are cash and cash equivalents, intercompany receivables, related party receivables, prepaid expenses, prepaid taxes and related party payables. The recorded values of cash and cash equivalents, related party receivables, prepaid expenses, prepaid taxes, intercompany receivables and related party payables represent approximate their fair values based on their short-term nature.
	(h)	Recent accounting pronouncements
		On June 30, 2009, FASB issued FASB Statement No. 168, Accounting Standards Codification™ ( FASB ASC 105 Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162 the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. On the effective date of this standard, FASB Accounting Standards Codification™ (ASC) became the source of authoritative U.S. accounting and reporting standards for nongovernmental entities, in addition to guidance issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). This statement is effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. If an accounting change results from the application of this guidance, an entity should disclose the nature and reason for the change in accounting principle in their financial statements. This new standard flattens the GAAP hierarchy to two levels: one that is authoritative (in FASB ASC) and one that is non-authoritative (not in FASB ASC). Exceptions include all rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under the authority of federal securities laws, which are sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants, and certain grandfathered guidance having an effective date before March 15, 1992. Statement No. 168 is the final standard that will be issued by FASB in that form. There will no longer be, for example, accounting standards in the form of statements, staff positions, Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) abstracts, or AICPA Accounting Statements of Position. The Company has adopted the new accounting standard and determined that there was no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of the operations.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - DECEMBER 31, 2010 AND 2009

(Stated in US Dollars)

In April 2010, the FASB issued an Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No.2010-13,”Compensation-Stock Compensation” (Topic 718): Effect of Denominating the Exercise Price of a Share-Based Payment Award in the Currency of the Market in Which the Underlying Equity Security Trades,” which address the classification of a share-based payment award with an exercise price denominated in the currency of a market in which the underlying equity security trades. Topic 718 is amended to clarify that a 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 shall not be considered to contain a market, performance, or service condition. Therefore, such an award is not to be classified as a liability if it otherwise qualifies as equity classification. The amendments in this update should be applied by recording a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. The cumulative-effect adjustment should be calculated for all awards outstanding as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which the amendments are initially applied, as if the amendments had been applied consistently since the inception of the award. ASU 2010-13 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2010 and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of the operations.

4.	DEFERRED TAX ASSET
	The Company has a net operating loss of 1,502,052 and 444,606 during the years of 2010 and 2009. As the Company accounts for income tax using an asset and liability approach and allows for recognition of deferred tax benefits in future years, so the deferred tax asset is calculated as following:

			Taxable Income			Taxable Income Not
	Tax Rate		Over			Over			Deferred Tax Asset
	15%		0			50,000		$	7,500
	25%		50,000			75,000			6,250
	34%		75,000			100,000			8,500
	39%		100,000			335,000			91,650
	34%		335,000			10,000,000			37,266
	Deferred Tax Asset Total							$	151,166
