PART I
 
ITEM 1. BUSINESS.
 
Business Overview
 
We manufacture and sell starch-based biodegradable and disposable food trays, containers, tableware and packaging materials.  Our starch-based material is a substitute to conventional petroleum-based plastic and paper materials used to make food trays, containers, tableware and packaging products.  We produce the starch-based material for our products using a proprietary manufacturing method which we refer to as dry-powder blending and we believe this method reduces our processing time and costs, as compared to conventional liquid solvents methods. We believe that our products are competitively priced as compared to petroleum-based plastic food containers and paper food containers in China. We market our products through our internal marketing and distribution personnel, currently located at our new corporate office in Harbin, China, as well as through third-party distributors.  Beginning in January 2010, we began selling our products to a customer in Italy.  We attempt to improve our products and production processes through our internal research and development personnel with assistance from personnel in our production department.
 
History
 
We are a Nevada corporation incorporated in December 1997 under the name Mount Merlot Estates, Inc.  At the time we acquired our current business in February 2007, our corporate name was “Ubrandit.com.”  On January 14, 2008, we changed our name to “China Green Material Technologies, Inc.”  Since on or about February 25, 2011, the Company’s shares have been quoted on the OTCQB market operated by Pink OTC Markets Inc. under the symbol CAGM.PK.  Prior to such time, the Company’s shares were traded on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board (the “Bulletin Board”) operated by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority under the symbol CAGM.OB, whereas before its name change in January 2008 the Company’s shares were quoted on the Bulletin Board under the symbol UBDT.OB.
 
On February 9, 2007, we acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of Advanced Green Materials, Inc. (“AGM”), a Nevada corporation, by merging a wholly owned subsidiary of ours into AGM. Through AGM, we indirectly own all of the outstanding capital stock of Harbin ChangFangYuan Hi-Tech Environment-Friendly Industrial Co., Ltd. (“CHFY”), a corporation organized under the laws of the PRC.  AGM has substantially no operations and substantially no assets other than the shares of CHFY and Zhonghao Bio (as defined below).  Through CHFY and Zhonghao Bio, we operate the business described in this annual report on Form 10-K and in the financial statements included herein.  We sometimes refer to our acquisition of AGM and CHFY as our “2007 Business Combination.”  Immediately before our 2007 Business Combination, we had no material assets and no material operations and therefore we were considered a “shell company” (as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act).  As consideration for the acquisition of AGM and CHFY, we issued to the former owners of AGM shares of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock that were convertible into approximately 98% of our outstanding common shares, on an post-converted basis.
 
On January 14, 2008, concurrent with our name change, we effected a 1-for-150 reverse split of our common stock.  In connection with the split, we issued additional shares to certain shareholders so that, after the split, no shareholder owned fewer than 100 shares.  The following month, on February 29, 2008, the holders of all outstanding shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock converted their preferred shares into a total of 18,150,000 shares of our common stock, and all shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock were cancelled.
 
CHFY was incorporated in the Heilongjiang Province of China on May 12, 1999. It was known as Harbin TianHao Technology Co., Ltd., and changed its name to Harbin ChangFangYuan Hi-Tech Industry Co., Ltd. on September 28, 2004, and further changed its nature from a joint stock limited company into a limited liability company on August 15, 2006 and changed its name to Harbin ChangFangYuan Hi-Tech Environment-Friendly Industrial Co., Ltd. and in the meantime AGM acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of CHFY on September 1, 2006.
 
Prior to May 2006, CHFY engaged only in product development and the establishment of manufacturing facilities and marketing relationships.  CHFY’s business realized its first revenue in May 2006.

On June 26, 2010, AGM completed the incorporation of a wholly owned subsidiary, Heilongjiang Zhonghao Starch-Based Biodegradable Materials Co., Ltd. (“Zhonghao Bio”) with registered capital of US$2.8 million in the Heilongjiang Province of China. Through Zhonghao Bio, the Company owns the new manufacturing facility and corporate headquarter located in Harbin Economic Technological Development Zone, which is described below under Item - “Business – Properties.”. The Company moved its corporate office to this new headquarter in September 2010.

Market Opportunity
 
We believe that, because of concerns over environmental safety, health, and renewability of resources, there is an increasing demand worldwide for products made from materials other than oil-based plastics and paper materials.  And because of fossil fuel’s detrimental impact on the environment and in order to reduce the deposit of solid waste and plastics in the environment, we believe that there is a growing trend for government incentives and restrictions favoring the use of alternatives to products made from oil-based plastics and paper materials.  The Chinese government has deemed environmental protection an important national interest, and since 2001 has promulgated a series of laws aimed at increasing the use of biodegradable materials, including mandates for the use of recyclable materials in certain packaging and has severely limited the use of disposable polystyrene bags, cutlery and tableware.  For example, in 2001 the PRC’s State Economic and Trade Commission announced a ban on production and use of disposable expanded plastic food containers throughout China; in 2007, the PRC’s General Office of the State Council announced a ban on the production, sale and use of plastic shopping bags thinner than 0.025 millimeters; effective June 1, 2008, under the PRC’s State Council Decree, it prohibited retailers from providing free plastic bags to customers; and on June 1, 2009, the PRC Food Safety Law (which also applies to food packaging materials and food containers) established an enhanced monitoring and supervision system, a product-recall system and a set of national safety standards.  The Food Safety Law will apply stricter tests on raw materials and higher control over the manufacturing processes of foods and food packaging materials.

Our goal is to provide products that address the opportunities created by these developments.  Because our products are made from sustainable resources, renewable ingredients and are biodegradable, we believe they are environment friendly and consistent with the “4R” environmental goals of “Reduce,” “Recycle,” “Reuse”, and “Recover.” We focus our research and development efforts on improving our current lines of disposable consumer goods in the catering, frozen food and home and personal use areas and on the development and introduction of new biodegradable plastic replacement products.
 
Our Products
 
Our starch-based material is potentially a substitute for the oil-based plastics and papers used in a wide variety of products.  We currently manufacture and sell disposable food trays, containers, tableware and packaging materials and we are actively researching the introduction of additional product lines.  During 2010 we developed food trays to hold frozen dumplings, which we produce in various sizes, including food containers with height of 8 cm and width of A4 paper size and a starch-based cup which we produce in sizes up to 17 cm tall.  In addition, during 2010 we also designed dual purpose, customized biodegradable and disposable tableware products for operational personal in the Railway Bureau of Harbin, potentially one of our major customers. 
 
Current Products We manufacture and sell customized starch-based biodegradable disposal tableware to retail consumers via supermarket chain operators, and customized food packaging products to frozen food manufacturers and railway bureaus in China.  We also manufacture and sell food and beverage containers and utensils made from our starch-based biodegradable material, including cups, plates and bowls to our distributors. Within the area of food and beverage containers and utensils, we produce a “Enjoy Dinner without Dish Washing” and set of “Four-pieces disposable tableware” series, which is a traveling, hotel and restaurant, picnic and outdoor series of tableware products.

Our starch-based products are an alternative to conventional petroleum-based plastic polymers such as polypropylene “PP” and polystyrene “PS” which are widely used to produce disposable take-away containers, disposable cups, plates, trays and cutlery.

Possible Future Products  We believe our starch-based material may be suited for additional uses and we are actively considering the introduction of additional product lines including:
 
·    
Trash bags and shopping bags.  We believe our starch-based material would be an alternative to conventional plastic polymers such as high density polyethylene “HDPE” and low density polyethylene “LDPE” which widely used to produce trash bags and shopping bags. Use of our material in these products will help reduce the use of non-biodegradable plastic polymers and landfill impact attributable to the disposal of petroleum and petroleum-based plastics.
 
5
 
 

 
·    
Packaging materials.  We are evaluating the use of our starch-based material as an alternative to plastic polymer such as low density polyethylene (“LDPE”) which is widely used for various packaging products. We have produced and used this starch-based material as packaging material for our products sold to a customer in Italy.
  
If we determine that the market opportunities exist for us to expand our business through introduction of either or both of these new products, we may consider acquiring or constructing an additional production facility, either in the area of the city of Harbin or in other areas of China near large consumer markets and with good access to key raw materials such as corn starch.  In addition, we may consider acquisitions of businesses with complementary product lines or in related industries.  Either of these strategies are likely to require that we obtain substantial additional amounts of financial resources, and there is no assurance that adequate additional capital would be available to us for these or any other purposes on satisfactory terms if at all.

Our Starch-Based Material
 
We produce a starch-based material using corn starch as the principal ingredient, and we manufacture all our products using this starch-based material.  Our starch-based material is non-toxic, harmless, heat-resistant, odor free and can be used in microwave ovens and retains its structural integrity at temperatures between -40°C and +150°C.
 
Our starch-based material is produced by adding bio-additives, such as polymer starch, cellulose and polyols, into modified starch to synthesize propionolactones, which is a cyclic lactone compound easily broken down with reagents such as water and alcohol. Such material has good structural strength and plasticity. However, when exposed to microorganisms such as those prevailing in urban garbage dumps, it can almost be completely decomposed into carbon dioxide and water through enzymes secreted by microorganisms. The decomposition process takes about 45 days after it is initially exposed to high concentrations of microorganisms in experimental conditions without any toxic effects to the atmosphere and soil. In contrast, other degradable products and biodegradable materials produced by our competitors typically take more than 45 days to decompose.
 
Our Technology
 
We utilize “dry-powder blending” technology, a proprietary water-free production process in the production of the biodegradable, starch-based material used to manufacture our products.  At present, both in China and elsewhere, the formulation of starch-based biodegradable products often involves the use of liquid solvents to modify the property of starch through mixed liquid polymerization. We believe that our dry-powder blending technology helps us to reduce the time and, as a result, the cost to produce our material compared with production methods using liquid solvents.

On September 17, 2009, to acquire technology for use in the manufacture of the Company’s starch-based material, the Company entered into an agreement to purchase two technologies from four individuals including two related parties, Mr. Zhonghao Su, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, and Mr. Yingjie Qiao, ex-technical director of the Company.  Pursuant to the sales agreement, Mr. Zhonghao Su agreed to contribute his interest in the technologies without any consideration. The total amount payable for these two technologies was RMB 15 million which was the fair value of the know-how right (US$ 2,264,937), of which the Company paid RMB5 million (US$754,979).  The remaining RMB10 million (US$1,509,958), which was recorded as contingent liabilities, will be paid by the Company upon receipt of the patent rights certificates for these two technologies and transfer of the ownership of these patent rights to the Company.  
 
On December 17, 2009, the Company entered into a supplemental agreement with three owners of these technologies, Mr. Yingjie Qiao, Mr. Zhonghao Su, and one of the two unrelated sellers, to amend the agreement for the purchase of the technologies. Pursuant to the supplemental agreement, the Company only acquired one technology for the total purchase price of RMB15 million (US$2,264,937) payable to Mr. Yingjie Qiao and Mrs. Dongyen Tang, of which the Company has already paid RMB5 million (US$754,979). Under the supplemental agreement, there was no change in the arrangement to pay the remaining RMB10 million (US$1,509,958); such amount was recorded as contingent liabilities and will be paid by the Company to Mr. Yingjie Qiao and one of the two unrelated sellers when the Company receives the patent right certificate for the technology and the ownership of the patent right has been completely transferred to the Company.  This acquired technology is an alternative dry-powder blending process to produce a starch-based material safe to eat and having improved tensile strength so that it can be made into film.  The PRC State Intellectual Property Office (“SIPO”) is presently reviewing a patent application, SIPO number 200810064592.8, for this technology. The Company plans to use this technology in the production of wrapping materials for food products.
 

6
 
 

 
Pursuant to the supplemental agreement, the Company also obtained the right to use the other technology which was the subject of the original agreement and which the Company currently applies in its dry-powder blending process to produce its starch-based material. The supplemental agreement provides the Company with a royalty-free right to use this other technology as long as it is owned by the current owners, a right of first refusal on any proposed transfers of the technology by the current owners and an option to purchase the technology for RMB15 million (US$2,264,937). This technology is also the subject of a SIPO patent application, number 200810170935.9, filed with and presently under review by SIPO. 

A “biodegradable” material is a compound that will decompose into simple molecular material under natural conditions through the activity of microorganisms (e.g., bacteria, fungus, algae, etc.).  Biodegradable materials are divided into two categories:  complete biodegradation materials and partial biodegradation materials.  With complete biodegradation materials, the biochemical reactions caused by the microorganisms cause the physical properties of the plastic structure to collapse.
 
We believe that our technology and know-how, including the intellectual property which is the subject of our two patent applications, allow us to produce, at a relatively low cost, a starch-based material that can be completely broken down into carbon dioxide and water by microorganisms (such as bacteria, fungi, algae, etc.) under natural conditions.
 
We have developed proprietary know-how relating to the production process for our starch-based material.  We believe that this know-how, when combined with our technical formulas, enables us to produce a biodegradable material that distinguishes our end products from those of our competitors in terms of speed of biodegradability and lower price.
 
Research and Development
 
Besides the purchases of intellectual property as discussed in “Our Technology,” we have an expanding internal research and development program that has regularly improved our manufacturing processes and helped us to maintain a technological advantage.  Expenditures related to our research and development activities were approximately $18,173 in 2010 and $11,084 in 2009.  Our research and development goals are to:
 
·
Reduce the cost of production of our starch-based material and to improve its competitiveness with petroleum-based plastics.
 
·
Increase the market applications for our starch-based material.
 
·
Develop, acquire additional technology and know-how in plant-based resins as alternative to oil-based materials and protect our intellectual property.
  
·
Continue to explore new alternatives and source new materials for our biodegradable material.
 
·
Explore the possibility to increase the starch-based content in our biodegradable material.

Manufacturing
 
We produce the products from our starch-based material at our two factories in the area of Harbin City, the capital city of Heilongjiang Province, China.  See additional information below under Item 2 “Properties.” Our production process consists of starch modification through high-speed blending of component ingredients into a proprietary composite material using industrial mixers, then processing such ingredients through heat, extrusion and pullout of sheet materials with customized extruders, positive and negative pressure molding of finished products, selection, disinfection and packaging. All the ingredients are blended in specific percentages according to proprietary formulations and are processed on customized equipment using our production know-how and technology. 

During 2009 and 2010, our production facility consisted of a 4,192 square-meter leased facility in Harbin City, China. This facility has annual production capacity of approximately 9,000 tons of finished goods. This facility has 40 production machines, a research and development line, a lab area for product and starch-based material testing, and a logistic area with storage for raw materials and finish goods.
 
7
 
 

 
Because of growing demand for our finished goods, during 2010 we purchased a new 5,921 square-meter manufacturing building located in the Harbin Economic and Technological Development Zone. During the latter half of 2010, we completed the purchase and installation of the substantial majority of the production equipment for this new facility and moved our corporate administrative office, sales force and logistics center to the new facility.  The Company encountered delays in coordinating with the local electrical utility for the installation and certification of high voltage power transformers and substation needed to operate the production lines in the facility. However, during the first quarter of 2011 the installation and certification of the electrical equipment was completed and we began production at the facility.  The new facility has 22 advanced production machines, a research and development line, a lab area for product and starch-based material testing and a logistic area with storage for raw material and finished goods.  Upon reaching full capacity, the facility will be able to produce approximately 11,000 tons of finished goods annually, increasing our finished goods production capacity from the current level of 9,000 tons annually to an estimated 20,000 tons annually. We are also using this new facility as the distribution facility for our products.

We believe that our manufacturing and marketing efficiency, quality and productivity will be enhanced as a result of improvements in our manufacturing, research and development, administration and marketing functions resulting from this new facility.

Our existing production facility has United States FDA Registration, ISO 9001 quality management system certification, ISO14001 environmental management system certification and ISO22000 food safety management system certification, and to our knowledge is the only starch-based biodegradable packaging material products facility with the “China Environmental Labeling Product Certificate.” At date of this report, our new production facility had applied for ISO9001 and ISO14001 certifications and currently pending the approval from relevant authorities.

For the foreseeable future, we intend to conduct our production operations from both the existing facility and our new facility, giving us total production capacity of approximately 20,000 tons annually. We believe this capacity will adequately serve the demand we currently project for our products during 2011 and beyond.  However, in the event we determine to expand our product lines to include grocery and shopping bags, as discussed elsewhere in this annual report, or other products, we anticipate that additional production capacity would be required.  In that case, we would need to purchase or construct additional facilities, and we anticipate that we would likely need additional financial resources for such purpose, and there is no assurance that we would be able to secure such additional financial resources on term that would be acceptable to us, if at all.

Suppliers
 
Our major suppliers for corn-starch and bio-additives are Heilongjiang Longfeng Corn Development Co., Ltd. and Heilongjiang Yanshou Natural Pigment Co., Ltd, respectively. These two suppliers offer lower transportation costs due to their close proximity to our existing and new production facilities in Harbin. However, there are several other corn-starch and bio-additives suppliers in Heilongjiang and Jilin Provinces from whom we could obtain adequate supplies of corn-starch and bio-additives at reasonable prices.  Because our manufacturing facility is located in the largest corn producing area in China, which is the Northeast area of China, we have local access to a sufficient amount of raw materials. We have developed a raw-material control network based on independent regional corn-starch buyers to effectively manage the price and quantity of our supply of corn-starch. During 2010 there was a global trend toward higher commodities prices, particularly corn-starch, and these higher prices have decreased our gross margin percentage because to date we have not raised prices to our customers by commensurate amounts.

Marketing and Sales
 
As of December 31, 2010, we had a sales and marketing staff of 58 full-time employees located at our corporate office adjacent to our new manufacturing facility located in the Harbin Economic and Technological Development Zone.  Our sales and marketing staff is organized into teams that focus on different customers or categories of customers such as major distributors and large industrial customers, major supermarkets, international sales via trade shows and China import and export fairs finally retail end-users such as hotels and restaurants.  Each team is headed by its own marketing manager, who in turn reports to our marketing vice president.  In January 2010, we began to conduct international sales through our internal sales force with sales of our products to a customer in Italy. Our goal is to increase our market penetration within China and to continue to expand our international sales.

We sell our finished goods to 150 distributors, besides supermarket chains and railway bureaus.  As of December 31, 2010, our largest distributors were Weihai Tianyuan Environmental-friendly Products Co., Ltd., Jinan Ai’Jiaren Environmental-friendly Products Trading Co., Ltd. And Dalian Green Land Trading Co., Ltd., which accounted for 24.9%, 23.0% and 19.5% of our sales during 2010, respectively.  Our top five customers accounted for approximately 74.3% of our total sales in 2010.  
 
8
 
 

 
Approximately 32.6% of our sales in 2010 were “customized” orders as compared to 24.6% in 2009, which means that we can tailor our products to meet stringent customer design needs and requirements besides delivering our high-quality standard lines of products.

In 2010, our disposable consumer goods, including cups, bowls, boxes and plates, were sold by supermarket chain operators, such as Lotus supermarkets, QKL supermarkets and RT-Mart in China.  We also continue to develop supply relationships with the provisional railway bureaus such as Harbin Railway Bureau, Jiamusi Railway Bureau and Qiqihar Railway Bureau and frozen food producer such as Zhengzhou Synear Group.
 
Our strategy is to use high-quality production standards to achieve high-quality products, thus creating brand awareness and brand loyalty.  We believe the increasing quality standards at our new production facility will contribute to this goal.  We invest in human, financial and material resources into brand-building efforts such as logo development and registration, brand promotion and corporate identity planning.  We intend to continue our efforts to build brand image through mass media, in connection with product distribution, and then transform the brand awareness into customer loyalty through improved performance and optimized service.  In this connection, during 2011 we intend to begin an advertising campaign in selected mass media in the area of Northeast China and in Shandong province of China, including billboards, magazines, newspapers, television and radio.  We expect that total expenditures for this media campaign may total approximately RMB20 million (US$3.0 million). At the same time, we may adopt “brand bundling marketing,” in which we bundle our products together with high-end brands to improve our brand image with targeted consumer groups.
 
We have registered one trademark, an associated mark of “Changfangyuan” in Chinese characters and “CAFY” in English characters, the “CHFY” brands, for food packaging products in the disposable consumer goods industry including packing boxes and packing bowls used in the catering industry, special lunch boxes and multi-functional lunch boxes used in railways, locked packing boxes and food boxes, fruit trays and special trays used in refrigerators and microwave ovens covering 14 categories and 121 series.  We market a “Enjoy Dinner without Dish Washing” series, which is a traveling, picnic and outdoor series of tableware products.  We also produce a special tray series used in refrigerators for 13 series of products.  With a rich variety of products, we believe the “Enjoy Dinner” series can fundamentally meet the demands of the market for biodegradable disposable tableware.

Competition

There are a large number of manufacturers of biodegradable materials, both in China and internationally.  These competitors include Kaneka, located in Japan, Wuhan Huali Co., Ltd. and Biograde (Nanjing) Environmental Materials Co., Ltd located in China.   Many of our competitors have substantially greater resources than we do.  In addition, several large international chemical companies have introduced both bio-based resins, polymers and/or compostable synthetic-based resins, including BASF and DuPont.  We believe we will face increased competition in the future as more competitors recognize the trend toward use of environment-friendly and fully biodegradable products.

Competition in China’s biodegradable material industry is very fragmented and consists of a combination of a few foreign competitors and many domestic biodegradable material companies. Whereas most international competitors seek to provide biodegradable plastics resins for the industrial users, our focus is on developing customized applications for the biodegradable material and selling the resulting products directly to retail end-users via our major distributors, in supermarket chains, in railway bureaus, to frozen food producers, and in hotels and restaurants.

We believe that the following competitive strengths enable us to compete effectively in China’s biodegradable material industry:

  
Leading-Edge Technology and Processing Know-how We believe we are one of the technology leaders in the biodegradable material industry in China and have a strong and extensive technology background.  Currently, we believe that we are the only company to use a water-free production process, which is our proprietary “dry-powder blending” manufacturing method to produce our biodegradable material, which enables us to reduce production time and costs.
 
  
R&D Affiliation with Harbin Engineering University – Through our early alliance with Harbin Engineering University, we developed a strong and extensive technology background. Through a cooperation agreement with Chemical Institute of Harbin Engineering University, we have access to certain of the university’s materials science reports and its team of over 30 scientists and researchers to support our R&D initiatives.
 
9
 
 

 
  
Environmental Labeling Product Certificate - We believe that we are the only starch-based biodegradable manufacturing facility in China that certificated by China Environmental United (Beijing) Certification Center Co., Ltd and authorized by the State Environmental Protection Administration of China, under Ministry of Environmental Protection of the People’s Republic of China.  We believe that this certification and authorization help in our efforts to secure orders from industrial end-users such as railway bureaus.
 
  
Brand Image - We believe that we have built a valuable brand image through our track record of successful execution of customized, disposable biodegradable products to meet specific requirements for our diverse customers including railway bureaus, frozen food producers and supermarket operators. We also provide high-quality standardized, disposable biodegradable products. We plan to leverage our brand image to attempt to obtain new and recurring business, due to our ability to produce customized products.
 
  
Superior Management Team - Three members of our executive management team were among the first biodegradable materials developers in China. Collectively, they have more than 34 years of experience with biodegradable materials. They are complemented by two executives with extensive finance and corporate financial reporting experience.
 
  
Operational and Quality Management - We are ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 22000 certified for our existing facility. We conduct internal performance assessments twice a year and external verification annually.
 
  
Ready Access to Raw Materials – Located in the Northeast region of China, one of China’s top corn producing areas, we have a large pool of qualified suppliers to choose from for our production needs.
 
 Employees
 
As of December 31, 2010, we employed a total of 245 full-time employees. The following table sets forth for the number of our employees by function as of December 31, 2010:

Our employees are not represented by a labor organization or covered by a collective bargaining agreement. We have not experienced any work stoppages. We are required under PRC law to make contributions to the employee benefit plans at specified percentage of after-tax profit. In addition, we are required by the PRC law to cover employees in China with various types of social insurance. We believe that we are in material compliance with the relevant PRC laws. We believe that we maintain a satisfactory working relationship with our employees and we have not been experienced any significant labor disputes or any difficulty in recruiting staff for our operations.

We employ many highly educated and skilled senior managers, including professors and individuals with masters and doctoral degrees and overseas working experience.  Ninety-nine percent of our management employees have obtained at least a bachelor degree; the average age of our employees is 34 years.

Seasonality

Our results of operations are not materially affected by seasonality and we do not expect seasonality to cause any material impact on our operations in the future.

Insurance

We do not have any business liability, interruption or litigation insurance coverage for our operations in China. Insurance companies in China offer limited business insurance products. While business interruption insurance is available to a limited extent in China, we have determined that the risks of interruption, cost of such insurance and the difficulties associated with acquiring such insurance on commercially reasonable terms make it impractical for us to have such insurance.  Therefore, we are subject to business and product liability exposure. See Item 1A, “Risk Factors – Our inability to protect our trademarks, patent and trade secrets may prevent us from successfully marketing our products and competing effectively.”

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.
 
The shares of our common stock are highly speculative in nature, involve a high degree of risk and should be purchased only by persons who can afford to lose the entire amount invested in the common stock. Before purchasing any of the shares of common stock, you should carefully consider the following factors relating to our business and prospects. You should pay particular attention to the fact that we conduct all of our operations in China and are governed by a legal and regulatory environment that in some respects differs significantly from the environment that may prevail in the U.S. and other countries. If any of the following risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition or operating results will suffer, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS
 
There is no assurance that the market for biodegradable materials will grow.
 
The use of biodegradable tableware and packaging materials instead of plastics may be considered a luxury in certain segments of our target markets.  In order for the market for biodegradable materials to develop, it will be necessary for a portion of the population in our target markets to become willing to pay the cost associated with biodegradable materials, which may in some cases be higher than the cost associated with non-biodegradable materials, in order to obtain the related social benefits. At present our largest market is China. Although the economy of China is growing, the average income of the Chinese population remains far below that of European and American countries where biodegradable materials have developed a clientele. The conversion of the Chinese population from standard plastics to biodegradable materials will require the concerted efforts of the biodegradable materials industry, provincial and national government, and popular opinion. If a significant portion of the Chinese population is not willing to pay the cost associated with biodegradable materials, the growth of our business will be hindered.
 
There is no assurance that our preferred Corporate Income Tax (“CIT”) rate of 15% will be renewed after 2011.
 
The normal CIT rate in China is 25%. Under the laws of the PRC, CHFY, as a wholly foreign-owned enterprise, we have been subject to lower income tax rates since 2007.  During 2009 and 2010, these income tax rates were 15.0% and 15.1%, respectively.  These lower rates will cease to be available to us after 2011, and in 2012 and subsequent years CHFY will pay income taxes at the rate of 25%.  However, during 2011 the Company will apply for “High-Technology Status Enterprise” status for Zhanghao-Bio, our subsidiary formed to own the new production facility we established during 2010 in the Harbin Economic and Technological Development Zone.  If this application is approved, the lower tax rate of 15% will continue to apply to the income attributable to Zhanghao-Bio.  Designation as a High-Technology Status Enterprise is awarded by the Chinese authorities to companies that consistently invest in the research and development of new technology and products or own proprietary intellectual property rights in some key areas supported by the Chinese government, such as environmental and sustainable materials.  There is no assurance that this application will be approved by the applicable provincial government.  Moreover, even if the application is approved, changes in applicable tax law could nullify the benefits of this designation.  Further, if the application is granted, the amount of our income that would be subject to the lower tax rate would be an amount reasonably attributable to the operations of our new facility, which is currently operating far below its capacity.
 
We will be unable to compete effectively unless we maintain the commercial viability of our technology.
 
Our starch-based technology is just one among many technologies competing to become the standard for biodegradable consumer products.  Because of the current international focus on environmental protection, many well-financed companies are devoting substantially more resources than us to the development of advanced systems for producing “green” materials.  Ultimately our success as a business will depend on our ability to be offer products that incorporate commercially viable technology.  If new developments in the production of biodegradable materials eclipse the advantages of our materials, we will be unable to compete effectively, which will adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
 
12
 
 

 
We may be unable to protect our proprietary and technology rights.
 
Our success will depend in part on our ability to protect our proprietary rights and technologies.  We rely on a combination of patents, trademark laws, trade secrets, confidentiality provisions and other contractual provisions to protect our proprietary rights. However, these measures afford only limited protection.  If we fail to adequately protect our proprietary rights our competitive prospects will be adversely affected. Despite our efforts to protect our proprietary rights, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy aspects of our products or to obtain and use trade secrets or other information that it regards as proprietary.
 
Our means of protecting our proprietary rights in the PRC may not be adequate. The system of laws and the enforcement of existing laws in China may not be as certain in implementation and interpretation as in the United States.  The Chinese judiciary is relatively inexperienced in enforcing corporate and commercial law, leading to a higher than usual degree of uncertainty as to the outcome of any litigation. The inability to enforce or obtain a remedy for theft of our proprietary information may have a material adverse impact on our business operations, financial condition and results of operations.
 
Litigation or other proceedings or third-party claims of intellectual property infringement could require us to spend significant time and money, could prevent us from selling our products or could adversely impact the price of our common stock.
 
Our commercial success depends in part on our non-infringement of the patents or proprietary rights of third parties and the ability to protect our own intellectual property.  Third parties may assert that we are employing their proprietary technology without authorization even if we are not.  As we enter new markets, if any, competitors may assert that our products infringe their intellectual property rights as part of a business strategy to impede our successful entry into those markets.  Third parties may have obtained and may in the future obtain patents and claim that manufacture, use and/or sale of our technologies, methods or products infringes these patents.  We could incur substantial costs and divert the attention of our management and technical personnel in defending ourselves against these claims even if we are eventually successful in such defense.  Furthermore, parties making claims against us may be able to obtain injunctive or other relief, which effectively could block our ability to further develop, commercialize, manufacture, use and sell methods and products, and could result in the award of substantial damages against us.  In the event of a successful claim of infringement against us, we may be required to pay damages and obtain one or more licenses from third parties, or we may be prohibited from making, using or selling certain methods and/or products.  We may not be able to obtain such a license at a reasonable cost, or at all.  In that event, we could encounter delays in product introductions while we attempt to develop alternative methods or products.  Defense of any lawsuit or failure to obtain any of these licenses on favorable terms could prevent us from commercializing products, and the prohibition of sale of any of our products could materially affect our ability to grow and to maintain profitability.

The approval of the China Securities Regulatory Commission may be required in connection with an offering of our securities under PRC regulations, and, if required, we cannot currently predict whether we would be able to obtain such approval.
 
On August 8, 2006, six PRC regulatory agencies, including the China Securities Regulatory Commission, or “CSRC,” Ministry of Commerce, or “MOFCOM”, the State-Owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, or “SASAC”, the State Administration of Taxation, or “SAT”, the State Administration for Industry and Commerce, or “SAIC” and State Administration of Foreign Exchange , or “SAFE” jointly promulgated the Regulation on Mergers and Acquisitions of Domestic Companies by Foreign Investors, which became effective on September 8, 2006 and was amended on June 22, 2009 (the “M&A Regulation”). This M&A Regulation, among other things, has certain provisions that purport to require offshore special purpose vehicles, or “SPVs”, formed for the purpose of listing of the equity interests in the PRC Companies on an overseas stock exchange and directly or indirectly controlled by PRC individuals or companies to obtain approval from the CSRC prior to listing their securities on an overseas stock exchange. The application of this M&A Regulation remains unclear with no consensus currently existing among the leading PRC law firms regarding the scope and applicability of the CSRC approval requirement. On September 21, 2006, the CSRC published on its official website a notice specifying the documents and materials that are required to be submitted for obtaining CSRC approval. As the application of this M&A rule is currently unclear and since the M&A Regulation was promulgated, the PRC government has not issued the implementing rules, and there may be some uncertainties as to how this M&A Regulation will be interpreted or implemented. If the CSRC or another PRC regulatory agency subsequently were to determine that the CSRC approval is required for an offering, we could face sanctions by the CSRC or other PRC regulatory agencies. If this happens, these regulatory agencies may impose fines and penalties on our operations in the PRC, limit our operating privileges in the PRC, delay or restrict the repatriation of the proceeds from this transaction into the PRC, restrict or prohibit payment or remittance of dividends by its PRC subsidiaries, or take other actions that could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, reputation and prospects, as well as the trading price of our ordinary shares. The CSRC or other PRC regulatory agencies may also take actions requiring or advising us to halt such an offering.
 
13
 
 

 
The approval of MOFCOM may be required in connection with the acquisition of CHFY by AGM under PRC regulations, and, if required, we cannot currently predict whether we will be able to obtain such approval.
 
The M&A Regulation also established additional procedures and requirements that could require the approval of MOFCOM or its competent local office before any change-of-control transaction in which a foreign investor takes control of a PRC domestic enterprise. Where a PRC enterprise or individual intends to acquire a domestic PRC affiliate in the name of a foreign company which the enterprise or the individual lawfully established or controls, such transaction shall be treated as a “related acquisition” and subject to the examination and approval of the MOFCOM.  Regarding the transaction between AGM and CHFY, because we obtained the Certification of Approval for Establishment of Enterprises with Foreign Investment in the PRC before the M&A Regulation became effective, but obtained the Business License after the effectiveness of the M&A Regulation, there is no assurance that relevant PRC government authorities will not determine that MOFCOM approval was required at the time of the acquisition. If relevant PRC government authorities deem such transactions to be a related acquisition subject to the M&A Regulation, we may have violated the M&A Regulation and could be subject to administrative fines and other penalties from relevant PRC authorities, and we may be required to obtain approval for such transactions from the MOFCOM and could be required to divest CHFY, which constitutes substantially all of our business. There are no specific declarations of fines or penalties for such violations under current PRC laws and regulations and so the penalties we could suffer are uncertain.

In the future, our strategy may include growing our business in part by acquiring additional businesses in China. Compliance with the requirements of the M&A Regulation to complete such transactions could be time-consuming, and any required approval processes, including obtaining approval from the MOFCOM or its competent local office, may delay or inhibit our ability to complete such transactions, which could affect our ability to expand business.

Currency fluctuations and restrictions on currency exchange may adversely affect our business, including limiting our ability to convert Chinese Renminbi, or RMB, into foreign currencies and, if the RMB were to decline in value, reducing our revenue in U.S. dollar terms.

The exchange rate of the RMB is currently managed by the Chinese government, and generally floats, within a percentage range, based on market supply and demand with reference to a basket of currencies.  The weight of each currency within the basket has not been announced.  The People’s Bank announced on June 19, 2010 its intention to allow the RMB to move more freely against the basket of currencies, which increases the possibility of sharp fluctuations in the value of the RMB in the near future and thus the unpredictability associated with the RMB exchange rate.

The value of our common stock will be indirectly affected by the foreign exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and the RMB. Appreciation or depreciation in the value of the RMB relative to the U.S. dollar would affect our financial results reported in U.S. dollar terms without giving effect to any underlying change in our business or results of operations. Fluctuations in the exchange rate will also affect the relative value of any dividend we issue that will be exchanged into U.S. dollars, as well as earnings from, and the value of, any U.S. dollar-denominated investments we make in the future.

Our operations are conducted in RMB, and a substantial amount of our assets are denominated in RMB.  These RMB-denominated accounts are translated into U.S. dollars at the average exchange rates in each applicable period, or for asset accounts, at each applicable date. To the extent the U.S. dollar strengthens against the RMB, the translation results in reduced revenue, operating expenses and net income for our operations, substantially all of which are denominated in RMB. Similarly, to the extent the U.S. dollar weakens against the RMB, the translation of RMB-denominated transactions results in increased revenue, operating expenses and net income. These conversions lead to translation gains or losses, which are recorded as a component of other comprehensive income.

Changes in foreign exchange regulations in the PRC may affect our ability to pay dividends in foreign currency or conduct other foreign exchange business.

The PRC government imposes controls on the convertibility of RMB into foreign currencies and, in certain cases, the remittance of currency out of the PRC. We receive substantially all of our revenues in RMB, which is currently not a freely convertible currency. Shortages in the availability of foreign currency may restrict our ability to remit sufficient foreign currency to pay dividends, or otherwise satisfy foreign currency-denominated obligations. Under existing PRC foreign exchange regulations, payments of current account items, including profit distributions, interest payments and expenditures from the transaction, can be made in foreign currencies without prior approval from the SAFE, by complying with certain procedural requirements. However, approval from appropriate governmental authorities is required where RMB is to be converted into foreign currency and remitted out of China to pay capital expenses such as the repayment of bank loans denominated in foreign currencies.

The PRC government may also at its discretion restrict access in the future to foreign currencies for current account transactions. If the foreign exchange control system prevents us from obtaining sufficient foreign currency to satisfy our currency demands, we may not be able to pay certain of our expenses as they come due.

Recent PRC regulations relating to the establishment of offshore special purpose companies by PRC domestic residents and registration requirements for employee stock ownership plans or share option plans may subject our PRC resident beneficial owners or the plan participants to personal liability, limit our ability to inject capital into our PRC subsidiaries, limit our subsidiaries’ ability to increase their registered capital or distribute profits to us, or may otherwise adversely affect us.

SAFE issued a public notice entitled “Notice on Relevant Issues Concerning Foreign Exchange Administration on Financing and Round-Trip Investment through offshore Special Purpose Vehicles by Domestic Residents” (“Circular 75”) on October 2005, which requires PRC domestic residents to register with the local SAFE branch before establishing or controlling any company outside of the PRC for the purpose of capital financing with assets or equities of PRC companies, referred to in the notice as an “offshore special purpose company.” PRC domestic residents who are stockholders of offshore special purpose companies and have completed round trip investments but did not make foreign exchange registrations for overseas investments before November 1, 2005 were retroactively required to register with the local SAFE branch before March 31, 2006. PRC resident stockholders are also required to amend their registrations with the local SAFE in certain circumstances.

We are committed to complying with and to ensuring that our shareholders who are subject to the regulations will comply with the relevant rules. However, we cannot assure you that all of our shareholders who are PRC residents will comply with our request to make or obtain any applicable registrations or comply with other requirements required by Circular 75 or other related rules. The failure or inability of our PRC resident stockholders to comply with the registration procedures set forth therein may subject us to fines and legal sanctions, restrict our cross-border investment activities, or limit our PRC subsidiaries’ ability to distribute dividends or obtain foreign-exchange-dominated loans to our company.

As it is uncertain how the SAFE regulations will be interpreted or implemented, we cannot predict how these regulations will affect our business operations or future strategy. For example, we may be subject to more stringent review and approval process with respect to our foreign exchange activities, such as remittance of dividends and, if we decide to borrow funds in other currencies, any resulting foreign-currency-denominated borrowings, which may adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. In addition, if we decide to acquire a PRC domestic company, we cannot assure you that we or the owners of such company, as the case may be, will be able to obtain the necessary approvals or complete the necessary filings and registrations required by the SAFE regulations. This may restrict our ability to implement acquisitions that we determine would be beneficial to our growth strategy, and could adversely affect our business and prospects.
 

15
 
 

 
There are significant uncertainties under the EIT Law regarding our PRC enterprise income tax liabilities, such as tax on dividends paid to us by our PRC subsidiary and tax on any dividends we pay to our non-PRC corporate stockholders.

The EIT Law provides that enterprises established outside of the PRC whose “de facto management bodies” are located in the PRC are considered as a “tax-resident enterprise” and are generally subject to the uniform 25.0% enterprise income tax rate on global income. Under the implementation regulations to EIT Law, “de facto management body” refers to a managing body that in practice exercises overall management control over the production and business, personnel, accounting and assets of an enterprise. In addition, on April 22, 2009, the State Administration of Taxation of the PRC issued the Notice on the Issues Regarding Recognition of Overseas Incorporated Enterprises that are Domestically Controlled as PRC Resident Enterprises Based on the De Facto Management Body Criteria, or Circular 82, which was retroactively effective as of January 1, 2008. This notice provides that an overseas incorporated enterprise which is controlled by PRC enterprises will be recognized as a “tax-resident enterprise” if it satisfies all of the following conditions: (i) the senior management responsible for daily production/business operations are primarily located in the PRC, and the location(s) where such senior management execute their responsibilities are primarily in the PRC; (ii) strategic financial and personnel decisions are made or approved by organizations or personnel located in the PRC; (iii) major properties, accounting ledgers, company seals and minutes of board meetings and stockholder meetings, etc, are maintained in the PRC; and (iv) 50.0% or more of the board members with voting rights or senior management habitually reside in the PRC. Although Circular 82 only applies to offshore enterprises controlled by PRC enterprises, not those controlled by PRC individuals or foreigners, like our company, the determining criteria set forth in Circular 82 may reflect the State Administration of Taxation’s general position on how the “de facto management body” test should be applied in determining the tax resident status of offshore enterprises, regardless of whether they are controlled by PRC enterprises, individuals or foreigners. If the PRC tax authorities determine that we are a “tax-resident enterprise,” we may be subject to enterprise income tax at a rate of 25.0% on our worldwide income. This may have an impact on our effective tax rate, and may result in a material adverse effect on our net income and results of operations. In addition, dividends paid by us to our non-PRC corporate stockholders as well as gains realized by such stockholders from the sale or transfer of our stock may be subject to a PRC tax under the EIT Law, and we may be required to withhold PRC tax on dividends paid to our non-PRC corporate stockholders.

We face uncertainty from the Circular on Strengthening the Administration of Enterprise Income Tax on Non-resident Enterprises’ Share Transfer (“Circular 698”) released in December 2009 by China’s State Administration of Taxation, or the SAT, effective as of January 1, 2008.

Pursuant to the Circular on Strengthening Administration of Enterprise Income Tax for Share Transfers by Non-PRC Resident Enterprises (“Circular 698”) issued by the SAT on December 10, 2009, where a foreign investor transfers the equity interests of a PRC resident enterprise indirectly via disposing of the equity interests of an overseas holding company (an “Indirect Transfer”) and such overseas holding company is located in a tax jurisdiction that: (i) has an effective tax rate less than 12.5% or (ii) does not tax foreign income of its residents, the foreign investor shall report such Indirect Transfer to the competent tax authority of the PRC resident enterprise. The PRC tax authority will examine the true nature of the Indirect Transfer, and if the tax authority considers that the foreign investor has adopted an abusive arrangement in order to avoid PRC tax, they will disregard the existence of the overseas holding company and re-characterize the Indirect Transfer and as a result, gains derived from such Indirect Transfer may be subject to PRC withholding tax at the rate of up to 10%. Circular 698 also provides that, where a non-PRC resident enterprise transfers its equity interests in a PRC resident enterprise to its related parties at a price lower than the fair market value, the competent tax authority has the power to make a reasonable adjustment to the taxable income of the transaction.

Since Circular 698 became effective on January 1, 2008, we cannot assure you that our reorganization will not be subject to examination by PRC tax authorities or that any direct or indirect transfer of our equity interests in our PRC subsidiaries via our overseas holding companies will not be subject to a withholding tax of 10%.

We are subject to the environmental protection law of China.

Our manufacturing process may produce by-products such as effluent, gases and noise, which are harmful to the environment. We are subject to multiple laws governing environmental protection, such as “The Law on Environmental Protection of the PRC”, as well as standards set by the relevant governmental authorities determining the classification of different wastes and proper disposal. Not obeying the laws and regulations and not paying the pollution discharge fees on time may result in fines or penalties on us and adversely affect our business and results of operations.
 

16
 
 

 
China is experiencing substantial problems with environmental pollution. Accordingly, it is likely that the national, provincial and local governmental agencies will adopt stricter pollution controls. There can be no assurance that future changes in environmental laws and regulations will not impose costly compliance requirements on us or otherwise subject us to future liabilities. Our profitability may be adversely affected if additional or modified environmental control regulations are imposed upon us.

Under PRC law, we are required to obtain permits and business licenses, and our failure to do so would adversely impact our ability to conduct business in China.

We hold various permits, business licenses, and approvals authorizing our operations and activities, which are subject to periodic review and reassessment by the Chinese authorities. Standards of compliance necessary to pass such reviews change from time to time and differ from jurisdiction to jurisdiction, leading to a degree of uncertainty. If renewals, or new permits, business licenses or approvals required in connection with existing or new facilities or activities, are not granted or are delayed, or if existing permits, business licenses or approvals are revoked or substantially modified, we will suffer a material adverse effect. If new standards are applied to renewals or new applications, it could prove costly to us to meet any new level of compliance.

New labor laws in the PRC may adversely affect our results of operations.
 
On June 29, 2007, the PRC government promulgated a new labor law, namely, the Labor Contract Law of the PRC, or the New Labor Contract Law, which became effective on January 1, 2008. The New Labor Contract Law imposes stricter obligations on employers. Under the New Labor Contract Law, an employer is obligated to execute written labor contracts with all of its employees; otherwise an employee without a written labor contract will be entitled to claim double monthly salary from the employer. Certain of our employees hired on a temporary basis were hired without execution of a written labor contract. Should such an employee file a valid claim, there can be no assurance that we will not be required to make additional payments under the New Labor Contract Law, which would adversely affect our results of operations.
 
The New Labor Contract Law also imposes tougher procedural requirements related to a reduction in workforce and requires certain terminations to be based upon seniority and not merit. In the event we decide to significantly change or decrease our workforce, the New Labor Contract Law could adversely affect our ability to enact such changes in a timely and cost-effective manner that is most advantageous to our business, which may materially and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Our failure to fully comply with PRC labor laws exposes us to potential liability.

Companies operating in China must comply with a variety of labor laws, including certain social insurance, housing fund and other staff welfare-oriented payment obligations. There exist uncertainties as to the interpretation, implementation and enforcement of such obligations. If relevant governmental authorities determine that we have not complied fully with such obligations, we may be in violation of applicable PRC labor laws and we cannot assure you that PRC governmental authorities will not impose penalties on us for any failure to comply. In addition, in the event that any current or former employee files a complaint with relevant governmental authorities, we may be subject to making up such staff-welfare oriented obligations as well as paying administrative fines. In order to preempt any penalties for failure to fully comply with applicable PRC labor laws, we are in the process of making a supplementary social insurance and housing fund payments. We may be liable for the payments and fines arising from such delinquent payments.

If our land use rights are revoked, we would have no operational capabilities.
 
Under Chinese law, land is owned by the state or rural collective economic organizations. The state issues to tenants the rights to use property. Use rights can be revoked and the tenants forced to vacate at any time when redevelopment of the land is in the public interest. The public interest rationale is interpreted quite broadly and the process of land appropriation may be less than transparent. CHFY and Zhonghao Bio rely heavily on these land use rights for its operations and the loss of such rights would have a material adverse effect on our company.
 
17
 
 

 
Our sales and operating revenues could decline due to macro-economic and other factors outside of our control, such as changes in consumer confidence and declines in employment levels.
 
Changes in national, regional and local economic conditions may result in reduced purchases of our products by consumers and reduction in the prices we are able to charge for our products. These economic conditions involve, among other things, conditions of supply and demand in local markets and changes in consumer confidence and income, employment levels, and government regulations. If these changes in economic conditions have an adverse effect on consumer demand for and the pricing of our products, our operating revenues and profitability would decline.
 
We are subject to extensive government regulation which could cause us to incur significant liabilities or restrict our business activities.
 
We are subject to certain Chinese government statues, rules and regulations in the field of food packaging materials.  Regulatory requirements could cause us to incur significant liabilities and operating expenses and could restrict business activities.  Our operating expenses may be increased by governmental regulations such as new industry standards, and by the possible imposition of new fees and taxes to pay for certain governmental services and improvements. Any delay or refusal from government agencies to grant us necessary licenses, permits and approvals could have an adverse effect on our operations.
 
We may require additional capital in the future, which may not be available on favorable terms or at all.
 
Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including industry and market conditions, our ability to successfully implement our branding and marketing initiatives and expansion of our production capabilities.  We may need to raise additional funds in order to grow our business and implement our business strategy. We anticipate that any such additional funds would be raised through equity or debt financings.  In addition, we may enter into a revolving credit facility or a term loan facility with one or more syndicates of lenders.  Any equity or debt financing, if available at all, may be on terms that are not favorable to us.  Even if we are able to raise capital through equity or debt financings, as to which there can be no assurance, the interest of existing stockholders in our Company may be diluted, and the securities we issue may have rights, preferences and privileges that are senior to those of our common stock or may otherwise materially and adversely affect the holdings or rights of our existing stockholders.  If we cannot obtain adequate capital, we may not be able to fully implement our business strategy, and our business, results of operations and financial condition would be adversely affected. In addition, if we raise additional capital through private placements or registered offerings, it is likely that broker-dealers will be engaged.  The activities of such broker-dealers are highly regulated and we cannot assure that the activities of such broker-dealers will not violate relevant regulations and generate liabilities despite our expectation otherwise.
 
We depend on the availability of additional human resources for future growth.
 
If we are able to achieve significant future growth in our sales volume, such growth may strain on our management and operations and financial resources. If our operations continue to grow, we would need to improve our management, operational and financial systems, procedures and controls, and other resources infrastructure, and expand our workforce. There can be no assurance that our existing or future management, operating and financial systems, procedures and controls will be adequate to support a significantly higher level of operations, or that we will be able to recruit, retain and motivate our personnel to the extent needed to support such operations. Further, there can be no assurance that we will be able to establish, develop or maintain the business relationships beneficial to our operations, or to implement any of the above activities in a timely manner.  Failure to manage growth effectively could have a material adverse effect on our business and the results of our operations and financial condition.
 
 Intense competition from existing and new entities may adversely affect our revenues and profitability.
 
In general, our industry is new but intensely competitive and highly fragmented. We compete with numerous companies, many of whom are more established than we are and have significantly greater financial, technical, marketing and other resources than we possess. These competitors may be able to respond more quickly to new or changing opportunities and customer requirements and may be able to undertake more extensive promotional activities, offer more attractive terms to customers, and adopt more aggressive pricing policies.  We cannot assure you that we will be able to compete effectively or successfully with current or future competitors or that the competitive pressures we face will not harm our business.
 
18
 
 

 
We also expect to encounter intense competition from other entities seeking to pursue new business opportunities or business combinations. Many of these entities are well-established and have extensive experience in connection with identifying new prospective business opportunities or in effecting business combinations. Many of these competitors possess greater financial, technical, human and other resources than we do and there can be no assurance that we will have the ability to compete successfully for new opportunities or business combinations.  Based upon limited financial and personnel resources, we may lack sufficient resources as compared to those of many of potential competitors.
 
Our success depends on our management team and other key personnel, the loss of any of whom could disrupt our business operations.
 
Our future success will depend in substantial part on the continued service of our senior management, including Mr. Zhonghao Su, our President and Chief Executive Officer, and Mr. Yan Seong Low, our Chief Financial Officer. The loss of the services of one or more of our key personnel could impede implementation of our business plan and result in reduced profitability. We do not carry key man life or other insurance in respect of any of our officers or employees. Our future success will also depend on the continued ability to attract, retain and motivate highly qualified technical sales and marketing customer support personnel. Because of the rapid growth of the economy in the PRC, competition for qualified personnel is intense. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to retain our key personnel or that we will be able to attract, assimilate or retain qualified personnel in the future.
 
We have limited business insurance coverage.
 
The insurance industry in China is at an early stage of development.  Insurance companies in China offer limited business insurance products, and do not, to our knowledge, offer business liability insurance.  As a result, we do not have business liability insurance coverage for our operations. Moreover, while business disruption insurance is available, we have determined that the risks of disruption in comparison to the cost of the insurance are such that we do not require it at this time. Therefore, any business disruption, litigation or natural disaster might result in substantial costs and diversion of our resources.
 
Our management may exercise broad discretion and judgment.
 
Any person who invests in our common stock will do so without an opportunity to evaluate the specific merits or risks of many potential new prospective business opportunities in which we may engage.  In these circumstances, investors will be entirely dependent on the broad discretion and judgment of management in connection with the selection of a prospective business. There can be no assurance that determinations made by management will guarantee that we will achieve our business objectives.
 
 There is no active market in our common stock and none may develop or be sustained.
 
Our stock is currently quoted on the OTCQB market operated by Pink OTC Market Inc. under the symbol “CAGM.PK.” There is currently no active trading market in our common stock and there is no assurance that an active trading market will develop.  In the event that an active trading market commences, there can be no assurance as to the market price of the shares of common stock, whether any trading market will provide liquidity to investors, or whether any trading market will be sustained.
 
Our management may face potential conflicts of interest.
 
Management is not required to commit its full time to Company affairs.  There may be a conflict of interest in allocating their time in the event that management engages in similar business efforts for other entities.  Management will devote such time, in its sole discretion, to conduct Company business, including the evaluation of potential new business opportunities and the negotiation and consummation of a business combination. As a result, the amount of time devoted to Company business and affairs may vary significantly depending upon whether our Company has identified a new prospective business opportunity or is engaged in active negotiations related to the consummation of a business combination.
 
State blue sky regulations may restrict the transferability of our common stock.
 
The holders of our Company’s shares of common stock registered under the Exchange Act and those who desire to purchase them in any trading market that might develop in the future should be aware that there may be state blue-sky law restrictions upon the ability of investors to resell such securities. Accordingly, investors should consider the secondary market for our Company’s securities to be a limited one.
 
19
 
 

 
We may issue additional securities.
 
We may issue additional shares of common stock in connection with a future financing. To the extent that additional shares of common stock are issued, our stockholders would experience dilution of their respective ownership interests in our shares. The issuance of additional shares of common stock may adversely affect the market price of our common stock, in the event that an active trading market commences, of which there can be no assurance.
 
We face general economic risks.
 
Our current and future business plans are dependent, in large part, on the state of the general economy. Adverse changes in economic conditions may adversely affect plans of operation. These conditions and other factors beyond our control include, but are not limited to regulatory changes.
 
Recent market events and conditions may adversely affect our access to additional capital.

Since 2006, U.S. credit markets have experienced disruption due to a deterioration in residential property values, defaults and delinquencies in the residential mortgage market (particularly, sub-prime and non-prime mortgages) and a decline in the credit quality of mortgage backed securities.  These problems led to a slow-down in residential housing market transactions, declining housing prices, delinquencies in non-mortgage consumer credit and a general decline in consumer confidence.  These conditions caused a loss of confidence in the broader U.S. and global credit and financial markets and resulting in the collapse of, and government intervention in, major banks, financial institutions and insurers and creating a climate of greater volatility, less liquidity, widening of credit spreads, a lack of price transparency, increased credit losses and tighter credit conditions.  These disruptions in the current credit and financial markets have had a significant material adverse impact on a number of financial institutions and have limited access to capital and credit for many companies.  These disruptions could, among other things, make it more difficult for us to obtain, or increase our cost of obtaining, capital and financing for our operations.  Our access to additional capital may not be available on terms acceptable to us or at all.

General economic conditions may adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

The recent unprecedented events in global financial markets have had a profound impact on the global economy.  Many industries are impacted by these market conditions.  Some of the key impacts of the current financial market turmoil include contraction in credit markets resulting in a widening of credit risk, devaluations and high volatility in global equity, commodity and foreign exchange markets, and a lack of market liquidity.  A continued or worsened slowdown in the financial markets or other economic conditions, including but not limited to, consumer spending, employment rates, business conditions, inflation, fuel and energy costs, consumer debt levels, lack of available credit, the state of the financial markets, interest rates, and tax rates may adversely affect our Company’s growth and profitability.  Specifically:

·
the global credit/liquidity crisis could impact the cost and availability of financing and our Company’s overall liquidity;
·
volatile energy prices, commodity and consumables prices and currency exchange rates impact potential production costs; and
·
the devaluation and volatility of global stock markets impacts the valuation of our Company’s equity securities.

These factors could have a material adverse effect on our Company’s financial condition and results of operations.
 
There are risks related to doing business in China given an uncertain regulatory environment.
 
Uncertainty in the state regulatory environment in China such as in the field of corporate financial and investment and fund raising activities may expose our Company to unexpected liability exposure and possibly even penalties. We finance our operations through equity and debt financings. China has an evolving regulatory environment as to what is permitted and often new regulations are adopted to regulate certain areas where there were no regulations before. As a result, our Company may be exposed to unforeseen risks of violating rules that did not exist. Such risks apply to all aspects of the operation of our Company. In case our Company is found to be in such violation, we could be subjected to monetary and other unexpected penalties.  This may in turn have an impact on our results of operation and the value of shares of our common stock.
 
20
 
 

 
The People’s Republic of China’s Economic Policies could affect our business.
 
Substantially all of our assets are located in the PRC and substantially all of our revenue is derived from our operations in the PRC. Accordingly, our results of operations and prospects are subject, to a significant extent, to economic, political and legal developments in the PRC.  While the PRC’s economy has experienced significant growth in the past 20 years, such growth has been uneven geographically and among various sectors of the economy. The Chinese government has implemented various measures to encourage economic growth and guide the allocation of resources. Some of these measures benefit the overall economy of the PRC, but some measures may have a negative effect on us.  For example, our operating results and financial condition may be adversely affected by the government control over capital investments or changes in tax regulations.
  
The economy of the PRC has been changing from a planned economy to a more market-oriented economy.  In recent years the Chinese government has implemented measures emphasizing the utilization of market forces for economic reform, the reduction of state ownership of productive assets, and the establishment of corporate governance in business enterprises; however, a substantial portion of productive assets in the PRC are still owned by the Chinese government.  In addition, the Chinese government continues to play a significant role in regulating industry development by imposing industrial policies. It also exercises significant control over the PRC’s economic growth through the allocation of resources, the control of payment of foreign currency-denominated obligations, the setting of monetary policy and the provision of preferential treatment to particular industries or companies.
 
Capital outflow policies in the People’s Republic of China may hamper our ability to remit income to the United States.
 
The PRC has adopted currency and capital transfer regulations. These regulations may require us to comply with complex regulations for the movement of capital. Although our directors believe that it is currently in compliance with these regulations, should these regulations or the interpretation of them by courts or regulatory agencies change, we may not be able to remit all income earned and proceeds received in connection with our operations or from the sale of our operating subsidiary to our stockholders.
 
It may be difficult to enforce judgments or bring actions outside the United States against our Company and certain of our directors and officers.
 
It may be difficult to effect service of process and enforcement of legal judgments upon our Company and our officers and directors because some of them reside outside the United States. As our operations are presently based in China and some of our key directors and officers reside outside the United States, service of process on our key directors and officers may be difficult to effect within the United States. Also, substantially all of our assets are located outside the United States and any judgment obtained in the United States against us may not be enforceable outside the United States.
 
If relations between the United States and China worsen, our stock price may decrease and we may have difficulty accessing the U.S. capital markets.
 
At various times during recent years, the United States and China have had disagreements over political and economic issues. Controversies may arise in the future between these two countries. Any political or trade controversies between the United States and China could adversely affect the market price of our common stock and our ability to access U.S. capital markets. We may have difficulty establishing adequate management, legal and financial controls in the PRC.
 
We may experience difficulty in establishing business controls and procedures that meet Western standards.
 
The PRC historically has not adopted a Western style of management and financial reporting concepts and practices, modern banking, computer or other control systems. We may have difficulty in hiring and retaining a sufficient number of qualified employees to work in the PRC. As a result of these factors, we may experience difficulty in establishing management, legal and financial controls, collecting financial data and preparing financial statements, books of account and corporate records and instituting business practices that meet Western standards.
 
21
 
 

 
We may face judicial corruption in the People’s Republic of China.
 
Another obstacle to foreign investment in the PRC is corruption. There is no assurance that we will be able to obtain recourse, if desired, through the PRC’s poorly developed and sometimes corrupt judicial systems. There is no assurance of an established public trading market, which would adversely affect the ability of investors in our Company to sell their securities in the public markets.  Although our common stock trades on the OTC Bulletin Board, a regular trading market for the securities may not be sustained in the future as the NASD has enacted recent changes that limit quotations on the OTC Bulletin Board to securities of issuers that are current in their reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The effect on the OTC Bulletin Board of these rule changes and other proposed changes cannot be determined at this time. The OTC Bulletin Board is an inter-dealer, over-the-counter market that provides significantly less liquidity than the Nasdaq Stock Market. Quotes for stocks included on the OTC Bulletin Board are not listed in the financial sections of newspapers as are those for the Nasdaq Stock Market. Therefore, prices for securities traded solely on the OTC Bulletin Board may be difficult to obtain and holders of common stock may be unable to resell their securities at or near their original offering price or at any price.

RISKS RELATED TO THE MARKET FOR OUR STOCK

The market price of our common stock is volatile, leading to the possibility of its value being depressed at a time when you want to sell your holdings.

The market price of our common stock is volatile, and this volatility may continue. For instance, between January 1, 2010 and December 31, 2010, the closing price of our common stock, as reported on the markets on which our securities have traded, ranged between $0.98 and $2.89. Numerous factors, many of which are beyond our control, may cause the market price of our common stock to fluctuate significantly. These factors include:

  
our earnings releases, actual or anticipated changes in our earnings, fluctuations in our operating results or our failure to meet the expectations of financial market analysts and investors;
 
  
changes in financial estimates by us or by any securities analysts who might cover our stock;
 
  
speculation about our business in the press or the investment community;
 
  
significant developments relating to our relationships with our customers or suppliers;
 
  
stock market price and volume fluctuations of other publicly traded companies and, in particular, those that are in the transportation information systems industries;
 
  
customer demand for our products;
 
  
investor perceptions of the transportation information systems industries in general and our company in particular;
 
  
the operating and stock performance of comparable companies;
 
  
general economic conditions and trends;
 
  
major catastrophic events;
 
  
announcements by us or our competitors of new products, significant acquisitions, strategic partnerships or divestitures;
 
  
changes in accounting standards, policies, guidance, interpretation or principles;
 
  
loss of external funding sources;
 
  
sales of our common stock, including sales by our directors, officers or significant stockholders; and
 
  
additions or departures of key personnel.
 
Securities class action litigation is often instituted against companies following periods of volatility in their stock price. This type of litigation could result in substantial costs to us and divert our management’s attention and resources. Moreover, securities markets may from time to time experience significant price and volume fluctuations for reasons unrelated to operating performance of particular companies. For example, since mid-2008, the securities markets in the United States have experienced a significant decline in share prices. These market fluctuations may adversely affect the price of our common stock and other interests in our company at a time when you want to sell your interest in us.

 
23
 
 

 
Our common stock is quoted on the OTCQB market operated by Pink OTC Market Inc. which may have an unfavorable impact on our stock price and liquidity.

Our common stock is quoted on the OTCQB market operated by Pink OTC Market Inc.  The OTCQB is a significantly more limited market than the New York Stock Exchange or NASDAQ system, and is also more limited than the OTC Bulletin Board.  The quotation of our shares on the OTCQB may result in a less liquid market available for existing and potential stockholders to trade shares of our common stock, could depress the trading price of our common stock and could have a long-term adverse impact on our ability to raise capital in the future.
 
We are subject to penny stock regulations and restrictions.
 
The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted Rule 15g-9 which establishes the definition of a “penny stock,” for the purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require:

 
 
that a broker or dealer approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks; and

 
 
that the broker or dealer receives from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased.
 
In order to approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must:

 
 
obtain financial information concerning the person’s financial situation, and investment experience and investment objectives of the person; and

 
 
make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and the person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks.
 
The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the Commission relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form:

 
 
sets forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination; and

 
 
that the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction.

Generally, brokers may be less willing to execute transactions in securities subject to the “penny stock” rules. This may make it more difficult for investors to dispose of our common stock and cause a decline in the market value of our stock. Disclosure also has to be made about the risks of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and in secondary trading and about the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and the rights and remedies available to an investor in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions. Finally, monthly statements have to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks.

Our President and Chief Executive Officer holds a significant percentage of our outstanding voting securities.
 
Mr. Zhonghao Su, our Chief Executive Officer, President and Director is the beneficial owner of approximately 28.3% of our outstanding voting securities.  As a result, he possesses significant influence, giving him the ability to elect a majority of our Board of Directors and to authorize or prevent significant corporate transactions.  His ownership and control may impede or delay any future change in control through merger, consolidation, takeover or other business combinations; and may discourage a potential acquirer from making a tender offer.

 
24
 
 

 
Certain provisions of our Articles of Incorporation may make it more difficult for a third party to effect a change-in-control.
 
Our Articles of Incorporation authorize the Board of Directors to issue up to 20,000,000 shares of preferred stock. 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 include 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 the Board of Directors to issue preferred stock could make it more difficult, delay, discourage, prevent or make it more costly to acquire or effect a change-in-control, which in turn could prevent the stockholders from recognizing a gain in the event that a favorable offer is extended and could materially and negatively affect the market price of our common stock.
 
Payment of dividends is unlikely.
 
We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on shares of our common stock. We intend to retain any future earnings, if any, to support operations and to finance the growth and development of our business. Therefore, we do not expect to pay any dividends on our common stock for the foreseeable future. The payment of dividends will be contingent upon future revenues and earnings, if any, capital requirements and overall financial conditions. The payment of any future dividends will be within the discretion of our board of directors (the “Board of Directors” or “Board”).

Not Applicable.
 
ITEM 2.  PROPERTIES.
 
All land in China is owned by the State or collectives. Individuals and companies are permitted to acquire land use rights for general or specific purposes. In the case when land is used for industrial purposes, the land use rights are granted for a period of 50 years. The rights may be renewed at the expiration of the initial and any subsequent terms according to the relevant Chinese laws. Granted land use rights are transferable and may be used as security for borrowings and other obligations.

We have two facilities located in the area of Harbin City in the Heilongjiang Province of the PRC.  One of the facilities was newly constructed during 2010 and was brought on line during the first quarter of 2011.  The other facility, or “existing facility,” was in continuous operation during 2009 and 2010 and produced our entire output of raw materials and finished products during those years.

Existing Facility – The existing facility consists of two separate buildings, one of which contains production equipment and the other of which serves as a warehouse.  This facility is capable of producing approximately 9,000 tons of finished goods annually.  During 2009 and 2010 we also located our corporate office, sales force and logistic center at this facility.  The facility covered an aggregate of 5,174 square meters. This facility has 40 production machines, a research and development line, a lab area for product and starch-based material testing, and a logistic area with storage for raw materials and finish goods.  The existing facility was subject to three operating leases – one of which is no longer in effect as of the date of filing this annual report – summarized as follows:

 
 
A lease for a manufacturing facility of 4,192 square meters with annual rent of RMB796,480 or US$117,662 (including an annual property management fee of RMB83,840) which expires in December 2011.

 
 
A lease for office space of 682 square meters with annual rent of RMB511,500 or US$75,562 which expired in December 2010.  Prior to expiration of this lease, we vacated these premises in September 2010 and moved our corporate office to the new facility described below.

 
 
A lease for warehouse space of 300 square meters with annual rent of RMB15,000 or US$2,216 expiring in October 2011.

We expect that we will be able to renew the two leases currently in effect for the existing facility on similar terms prior to their expiration.

New Facility — In July 2010, we purchased our new 5,921 square-meter facility which is located in the Harbin Economic and Technological Development Zone.  During the latter half of 2010, we completed the purchase and installation of the substantial majority of the production equipment for this new facility and moved our corporate administrative office, sales force and logistics center to the new facility.  In bringing this facility on line, we experienced delays in coordinating with the local electrical utility for the installation and certification of high voltage power transformers and substation needed to operate the production lines in the facility.  During the first quarter of 2011 the installation and certification of this electrical equipment was completed and in we began production at the facility.  Upon reaching full capacity, the facility will be able to produce approximately 11,000 tons of finished goods annually.  We are also using this new facility as the distribution facility for our products.

For the foreseeable future, we intend to conduct our production operations from both the existing facility and our new facility, giving us total production capacity of approximately 20,000 tons of finished goods annually. We believe this capacity will adequately serve the demand we currently project for our products during 2011 and beyond. However, in the event we determine to expand our product lines to include grocery and shopping bags, as discussed elsewhere in this annual report, we anticipate that additional production capacity would be required.

Part of the initial capitalization of our business included the contribution of a factory with 21,132 square meters of floor space.  We currently own such factory, but do not use it for our current business given its distant location from our raw material sources. The factory is currently leased to a third party and the proceeds are recorded as rental income on the income statement.

Our existing production facility has United States FDA Registration, ISO 9001 quality management system certification, ISO14001 environmental management system certification and ISO22000 food safety management system certification, and to our knowledge is the only starch-based biodegradable packaging material products facility with the “China Environmental Labeling Product Certificate.”  At date of this report, our new production facility has applied for ISO9001 and ISO14001 certifications and currently pending the approval from relevant authorities.

Our common stock is thinly traded and any reported sale prices may not be a true market-based valuation of our common stock.  As of April 12, 2011, there were approximately 2,469 owners of record of our common stock.
 
Trades in our common stock may be subject to Rule 15g-9 under the Exchange Act, which imposes requirements on broker-dealers who sell securities subject to the rule to persons other than established customers and accredited investors.  For transactions covered by the rule, broker-dealers must make a special suitability determination for purchasers of the securities and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction before the sale.
 
Our shares are subject to rules applicable to “penny stock” which pertain to any equity security with a market price less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share.  Penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC, which specifies information about penny stocks and the nature and significance of risks of the penny stock market. A broker-dealer must also provide the customer with bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer, and sales person in the transaction, and monthly account statements indicating the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. In addition, the penny stock rules require that, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity in our shares.

Dividend Policy
 
We have not paid or declared any cash dividends on our common stock within the past three years and do not foresee doing so in the foreseeable future.  We intend to retain any future earnings for the operation and expansion of our business.  Any decision as to future payment of dividends will depend on the available earnings, the capital requirements of our Company, our general financial condition and other factors deemed pertinent by our Board of Directors.
 

28
 
 

 
For information concerning possible legal restrictions and other possible limitations on our payment of dividends or on the ability of our subsidiaries to pay dividends to us, please refer to the disclosures set forth in this Annual Report within Item 1A. under the subheadings “Risk Factors – The approval of the China Securities Regulatory Commission may be required in connection with an offering of our securities under PRC regulations, and, if required, we cannot currently predict whether we would be able to obtain such approval”; “ – Changes in foreign exchange regulations in the PRC may affect our ability to pay dividends in foreign currency or conduct other foreign exchange business”; “ – Recent PRC regulations relating to the establishment of offshore special purpose companies by PRC domestic residents and registration requirements for employee stock ownership plans or share option plans may subject our PRC resident beneficial owners or the plan participants to personal liability, limit our ability to inject capital into our PRC subsidiaries, limit our subsidiaries’ ability to increase their registered capital or distribute profits to us, or may otherwise adversely affect us”; “ – There are significant uncertainties under the EIT Law regarding our PRC enterprise income tax liabilities, such as tax on dividends paid to us by our PRC subsidiary and tax on any dividends we pay to our non-PRC corporate stockholders”; and “ – Payment of dividends is unlikely.”

Sales of Unregistered Securities
 
During 2010 we made the following issuances of shares of our common stock in transactions that were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933:

 
 
In January 2010 we sold 5,051,461 shares of common stock to certain accredited investors pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement at a price of $0.90 per share, or an aggregate price of $4,546,315.

ITEM 7.  MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
 
The following management’s discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the notes thereto and the other financial information appearing elsewhere in this report. In addition to historical information, the following discussion contains certain forward-looking information. See “Special Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements” above for certain information concerning those forward looking statements.

Business Overview
 
We manufacture and sell starch-based biodegradable, disposable containers, tableware and packaging materials in China and, to a very limited extent, in other countries, primarily Italy. In making the starch-based material for our products, we use proprietary manufacturing methods that we believe reduce processing costs and time.  We market our products through our internal marketing and distribution personnel, currently located at our new corporate office in Harbin, China, as well as through third-party distributors.  We attempt to improve our products and production processes through our internal research and development personnel with assistance from personnel in our production department.

Our starch-based material is potentially a substitute for the oil-based plastics used in a wide variety of products. We currently manufacture and sell food packaging products and disposable tableware consumer goods, and we are actively researching the introduction of additional product lines. We manufacture and sell biodegradable disposal tableware to consumers and food packaging products to manufacturers of retail frozen food items. We also manufacture and sell food and beverage containers and utensils made from our biodegradable material, including cups, plates and bowls. Within the area of food and beverage containers and utensils, we produce a “Enjoy Dinner without Dish Washing” series, which is a traveling, picnic and outdoor series of tableware products.

We produce a starch-based material using corn starch as the principal ingredient, and we manufacture all our products using this starch-based material. Our starch-based material is non-toxic, harmless, heat-resistant and odor-free, can be used in microwave ovens and retains its structural integrity at temperatures between -40°C and +150°C.

We utilize “dry-powder blending” technology in the production of the biodegradable, starch-based material used to manufacture our products.  At present, both in China and elsewhere, the formulation of starch-based biodegradable products often involves the use of liquid solvents to modify the property of starch through mixed liquid polymerization. We believe that our dry-powder blending technology helps us to reduce the time and, as a result, the cost to produce our material compared with production methods using liquid solvents.

Market Opportunity

We believe that, because of concerns over environmental safety, health and renewability of resources, there is an increasing demand worldwide for products made from materials other than oil-based plastics and paper products.  We also believe that there is a growing trend for government incentives and restrictions favoring the use of alternatives to oil-based plastics and paper based products.  For example, the Chinese government has deemed environmental protection an important national interest, and since 1996 has promulgated a series of laws aimed at increasing the use of biodegradable materials, including mandates for the use of recyclable materials in certain packaging and has severely limited the use of disposable polystyrene bags, cutlery and tableware.  Our goal is to provide products that address the opportunities created by these developments.  Because our products are made from renewable ingredients and are biodegradable, we believe they are environmental friendly and consistent with the “4R” environmental goals of “Reduce,” “Recycle,” “Reuse”, and “Recover.” We focus our research and development efforts on improving our current lines of disposable consumer goods in the catering, frozen food and home and personal use areas, and on the development and introduction of new plastic replacement products.

Currency 

Our business operates in China and our internal accounting records are denominated in Chinese Renminbi (RMB), but we report our financial results in our SEC filings in U.S. dollars.  The conversion of our accounts from RMB to U.S. dollars results in translation adjustments, which are reported as a line item after net income and before comprehensive income. The net income is added to the retained earnings on our balance sheet; while the translation adjustment is added to a line item on our balance sheet labeled “accumulated other comprehensive income,” because it is more reflective of changes in the relative values of U.S. and Chinese currencies than of the success of our business.  For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, we recorded unrealized gains (losses) of $1,270,375 and ($20,380) on foreign currency translation, respectively.
 
Financial Performance Highlights

We continued to experience strong demand for our products during for the year ended December 31, 2010, which resulted in continued growth in our revenues. Despite the overall economic uncertainties in the global economy, we believe that the starch-based biodegradable, disposable and compostable materials industry in China is still in the process of continuous growth and development with an increasing of awareness and demand for environmentally friendly containers, tableware and packaging materials by the Chinese government and public. This trend is supported by the favorable governmental policies in the biodegradable materials sector. We believe this trend will continue to result in the growth in sales of our products.

The following are some financial highlights for the financial year ended December 31, 2010:

Revenues – Revenues were $20.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 an increase of 49.5% from the year ended December 31, 2009; of this increase 40.6% was due to an increase in the volume of products sold and 6.4% was due to an increase of average selling prices. In 2010, seven new major customers were secured whose purchases accounted for 9.1% of total revenue.
 
Gross Margin – Gross margin was 43.9% for the year ended December 31, 2010 as compared to 47.4% for the comparable financial year in 2009, due to an increase in overall production costs by 13.5% mainly caused by increases in raw materials price, amortization costs for know-how, utilities and packaging costs.
 
Income from operations – Income from operations was $6.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 an increase of 26.5% from $5.3 million of the comparable financial year in 2009.
 
Net Income – Net income was $5.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 an increase of 26.2% from $4.2 million of the comparable financial year in 2009.

Revenue   Total revenues were $20.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 compared to $13.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2009, an increase of $6.6 million or 49.5%. The increase was mainly attributable to the increased sales of our products which resulted from increased demand from our existing customers as well as new customers which contributed 35.6% and 13.9% of the 49.5% increase, respectively. We believe that such revenues increased as a result of growing recognition of our starch based biodegradable products and their environmental friendly advantages as well as the rapidly developing market opportunities in this sector in China. We continue our efforts to increase revenues by improving our marketing strategy, increasing our sales channels, increasing the geographical presence of our products within China and overseas and developing new biodegradable products. For the year ended December 31, 2010, the volume of our products sold increased by 40.6% and our average selling price increased by 6.4% as compared to the comparable period in 2009.  During 2010 we increased our internal marketing team members from 38 to 58.
 
Cost of Goods Sold  Cost of goods sold for the year ended December 31, 2010 was $11.3 million as compared to $7.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2009, an increase of $4.2 million or 59.5%. Gross margin was 43.9% for the year ended December 31, 2010 and 47.4% for the year ended December 31, 2009.  The 350 basis points or 7.4% decline in gross profit margin during 2010 compared with 2009 was due to the increase in overall production costs by 13.5%, which was mainly caused by increases in raw material price, depreciation charges for plant and equipment, amortization costs for know-how right, utilities and packaging costs in year ended December 31, 2010 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2009. Our increased average selling price during 2010 reduced the impact of the increase in production costs so that the costs of goods sold percentage increased by 6.7%, from 52.6% in 2009 to 56.1% in 2010.
 
Selling Expenses Selling expenses were $0.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2010, as compared to $0.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2009, a slight increase of $4,104 or 1.7%.  The relative stability of selling expenses was the result of increases in employee compensation, traveling expenses, entertainment expenses and stores admission fees which were offset by costs savings from closure of four branch offices during the year ended December 31, 2010 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2009.
 
General and Administrative Expenses   General and administrative expenses were $1.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2010, as compared to $0.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2009, an increase of  $0.9 million or 107.9%.  The increase was primarily due to increases in overall salary and related costs of $0.2 million, Zhonghao Bio start-up costs of $0.2 million, IR and travelling expenses of $0.1 million and professional fees of $0.4 million incurred for planned, proposed and completed corporate exercises and issuance of new common stock during the year ended December 31, 2010.

Stock based compensation Stock based compensation was $0.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 as compared to $0 for the year ended December 31, 2009, a 100% increase, which was attributable primarily to amortization of the fair market values of $0.1 million for the 457,500 one-year warrants we issued during April and July 2010 with exercise prices of $0.90 issued to IR firms for their 12 months of investors relation services, and stock awards issued to Independent Directors and Chief Financial Officer which had fair market values of $0.1 million.
 
Other Income (Expense)  Total other expenses were $0.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 as compared to total other expenses of $0.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2009, an increase of $ 0.2 million or 31.4%.  The increase primarily resulted from increases in impairment loss on investments of $0.3 million, net rental expense and realized foreign exchange losses of $0.2 million offset by a decrease of $0.3 million on loss on disposal of fixed and intangible assets.

Income Tax   We generate our income in China through the operations of our principal operating subsidiary CHFY.  Under the laws of the PRC, CHFY, as a wholly foreign owned enterprise, is entitled to an exemption from corporate income tax (“CIT”) during its first and second profitable years and a 50% reduction in its CIT in the subsequent three years.  Because 2007 and 2008 were CHFY’s first and second profitable years, CHFY was exempt from CIT for those years. Commencing in 2009, CHFY became subject to CIT in the PRC at a 15% tax rate.   As a result of the foregoing, the provision for income taxes was $ 0.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 as compared to $ 0.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2009. The effective tax rates were 15.0% for the year ended December 31, 2010 and 15.1% for the year ended December 31, 2009. The increase in the income tax expense mainly resulted from the increased taxable net income in 2010.  The 15% tax rate will continue through 2011.

 
33
 
 

 
In 2012 and subsequent years CHFY will pay income taxes at the rate of 25%.  However, during 2011 the Company will apply for “High-Technology Status Enterprise” status for Zhanghao-Bio, our subsidiary formed to own the new production facility we established during 2010 in the Harbin Economic and Technological Development Zone.  If this application is granted, the lower tax rate of 15% will continue to apply to the income attributable to Zhanghao-Bio.  Designation as a High-Technology Status Enterprise is awarded by the Chinese authorities to companies that consistently invest in the research and development of new technology and products or own proprietary intellectual property rights in some key areas supported by the Chinese government, such as environmental and sustainable materials.  There is no assurance that this application will be approved by the applicable provincial government.  Moreover, even if the application is approved, changes in applicable tax law could nullify the benefits of this designation.  Further, if the application is granted, the amount of our income that would be subject to the lower tax rate would be an amount reasonably attributable to the operations of our new facility, which is currently operating far below its capacity.
 
Net Income Per Share Basic net income per share is computed using the weighted average number of the ordinary shares outstanding during the year. Diluted net income per share is computed using the weighted average number of ordinary shares and ordinary share equivalents outstanding during the year.  The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net income per share for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009:

 Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our operations were initially capitalized by the combination of cash contributed to CHFY and a manufacturing facility and intellectual property contributed by our stockholders prior to 2008.   Since that time we have funded operations, including capital expenditures, primarily from cash generated by operations, by sales of our common stock in private placement transactions, by loans from third parties, and by loans from certain of our stockholders and management.  We repaid approximately $0.1 million of loans to one of the stockholders during 2010 and $1.0 million during 2009; as a result, as of December 31, 2010, we owed approximately $0.2 million in related party debt.  These loans are non-interest bearing, unsecured, and due on demand.  Accordingly, we include them as current liabilities.  We may make further repayments of these loans from time to time without interfering with the operation of our business.
 
As of December 31, 2010, we had net working capital of $19.4 million, including cash and equivalents of $12.1 million and accounts receivable of $10.1 million.  Most of our receivables are owed to us by our primary customers for products purchased from us during the year, and we consider the receivables to be collectible in the ordinary course.  We expect to collect substantially all of the December 31, 2010 balance of receivables during 2011. The ratio of current assets to current liabilities was 5.3:1.
 
The following is a summary of cash provided by or used in each of the indicated types of activities during the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009:

We incurred positive cash in-flow from operating activities of approximately $4.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. This was primarily attributable to our net income of approximately $5.2 million, non-cash items adjustments for depreciation and amortization and stock-based compensation offset by outflow from changes in operating assets and liabilities.

During the year ended December 31, 2010, we had cash outflow of $8.2 million from investing activities.  This was mainly attributable to $0.3 million deposit for construction for the Company’s new manufacturing facility, which has a total contract value of $0.8 million or RMB5,200,000 and value of variation orders subject to agreement by both parties, $8.1 million cash paid to purchase property, plant and equipment for the Company’s new corporate office and manufacturing facility and offset by the cash proceeds of $0.1 million received from disposal of fixed assets in the year of 2010. While in the comparable year of 2009, we paid $0.7 million for deposit to purchase know-how right and $0.1 million for purchase of fixed assets.  In addition, we made additional expenditures for equipment at this new facility during the first quarter of 2011, and the facility began production during the first quarter of 2011.
 
We had cash inflows from financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2010 of $8.4 million as compared to $1.0 million cash outflow from financing activities for the comparable period of 2009. The increase was mainly due to proceeds of $4.3 million and $2.8 million from the issuance of 5.1 million and 1.9 million shares of common stock in connection with the January 2010 Private Placement and June 2010 Private Placement, respectively, and $1.3 million of unsecured, non-interest bearing advance from a third party to facilitate our purchase of the new manufacturing facility property in Harbin Economic and Technological Development Zone, offset by a repayment of $ 0.1 million advance from stockholder.

During 2011 we have employed, or intend to employ, our cash resources for marketing and brand building, for completion of our new production facility, for increasing production at the new facility, and for general and corporate purposes.  As part of our marketing strategy, during 2011 we intend to begin an advertising campaign in selected mass media in the area of Northeast China and in Shandong province of China, including magazines, newspapers, television and radio.  We expect that total expenditures for this media campaign may total approximately RMB20 million (US$3.0 million) during 2011.  During the first quarter of 2011 we made additional expenditures of approximately US$1.5 million to acquire the remaining necessary high voltage power transformers and substation equipment needed to bring our new production facility on line.  During 2011 we have made investments in labor, raw materials and supplies to support the production at this new facility; in addition, we anticipate additional investments in labor, raw materials and supplies to support higher levels of production at the new facility as we continue to expand our sales in China and internationally.  We may recover substantially all of the investments necessary for production at the new facility during 2011 in the normal cycle of business through collection of receivables generated by the sale of the finished products from the new facility.  In addition, in the event that our patent application is granted, we will be required to pay approximately US$1.5 million to the sellers of the underlying technology; and in the event we decide to purchase the technology underlying the other patent subject to the supplemental agreement described elsewhere in this annual report under Item 1. “Business – Our Technology.”  We believe our current resources are sufficient to fund ongoing operations as well as our currently projected cash need for the foreseeable future.

We believe that our present capacity will adequately serve the demand we currently project for our products during 2011 and beyond.  However, in the event we determine to expand our product lines to include grocery and shopping bags, as discussed elsewhere in this annual report, or other products, we anticipate that additional production capacity would be required.  In that case, we would need to purchase or construct additional facilities, and we anticipate that we would likely need additional financial resources for such purpose; there is no assurance that we would be able to secure such additional financial resources on terms that would be acceptable to us, if at all.
 
We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on shares of our common stock. We intend to retain any future earnings, if any, to support operations and to finance the growth and development of our business. Therefore, we do not expect to pay any dividends on our common stock for the foreseeable future. The payment of dividends will be contingent upon future revenues and earnings, if any, capital requirements and overall financial conditions. The payment of any future dividends will be within the discretion of our Board of Directors.
 
Application of Critical Accounting Policies
 
a. Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 period. Significant estimates include the estimate of useful lives of property and equipment, intangible asset and know-how right, the deferred tax valuation allowance and the fair value of stock warrants and stock awards. Estimates, by their nature, are based on judgment and available information. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
 

35
 
 

 
b. Cash and Equivalents
 
The Company considers all highly liquid temporary cash investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased, to be cash equivalents.
 
c. Accounts Receivable
 
Accounts receivables are recognized and carried at original invoice amount less allowance for doubtful accounts based on a review of all outstanding amounts at year end. Management determines the allowance for doubtful accounts by using historical experience applied to an aging account and the estimated losses are based on a review of the current status of the existing receivables. The Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts equal to the estimated losses that will be incurred in the collection of all receivables. The allowance for doubtful accounts as of December 31, 2010 and 2009 were $0 and $32,786, respectively. Trade receivables are written off when deemed uncollectible.
 
d. Inventories
 
The Company value inventories, consisting of finished goods, work in progress, raw materials, and packaging material and others, at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined on the weighted average cost method. Cost of raw materials is determined on a first-in, first-out basis (“FIFO”). Finished goods are determined on a weight average basis and are comprised of direct materials, direct labor, and an appropriate proportion of overhead.
 
e. Property and Equipment
 
Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Expenditures for major additions and betterments are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred. Depreciation of property and equipment is computed by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the lease term or the useful lives of the assets. Upon sale or retirement of plant and equipment, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reflected in the Company’s Consolidated Income Statements.

 f. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
 
The Company evaluates the recoverability of its other long-lived assets, including amortizing intangible assets, if circumstances indicate impairment may have occurred pursuant to ASC 360. This analysis is performed by comparing the respective carrying values of the assets to the current and expected future cash flows, on an undiscounted basis, to be generated from such assets. If such analysis indicates that the carrying value of these assets is not recoverable, the carrying value of such assets is reduced to fair value through a charge to the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income.
 
g. Intangible Assets
 
At December 31, 2010 intangible assets consist of a land use right. With the adoption of ASC 350, intangible assets with a definite life are amortized on a straight-line basis. The land use right is being amortized over its estimated life of 50 years.  During 2009 we disposed of a patent right which, prior to its disposal, was being amortized over its estimated life 20 years. During 2009 the Company determined it would not use the patent right and accordingly disposed of the patent right and incurred a loss on the disposition of $395,251 which was recognized during the quarter ended September 30, 2009.  Our interests in the patent rights and related technology acquired by us in 2009 are accounted for on the balance sheet as "Know-how Right, Net."
 
Intangible assets with a definite life are tested for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that a carrying amount of an asset (asset group) may not be recoverable. An impairment loss would be recognized when the carrying amount of an asset exceeds the estimated undiscounted cash flows used in determining the fair value of the asset. The amount of the impairment loss to be recorded is calculated by the excess of the asset’s carrying value over its fair value. Fair value is generally determined using a discounted cash flow analysis. Costs related to internally develop intangible assets are expensed as incurred.
 
h. Revenue Recognition
 
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 605, Revenue Recognition, when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, collection is reasonably assured and delivery of products has occurred or services have been rendered. Revenue includes sales of products. Products revenue represents the invoiced value of goods sold recognized upon the delivery of goods to customers, net of allowance for estimated returns, when both title and risk of loss transfer to the customer, provided that no significant obligations remain. Deferred revenue represents the undelivered portion of invoiced value of goods sold to customers. The Company does not provide unconditional right of return, price protection or any other concession to its customers.
 

36
 
 

 
Sales revenue represents the invoiced value of goods, net of value-added tax ("VAT"). All of the Company’s products sold in the PRC are subject to VAT of 17% of gross sales price. This VAT may be offset by VAT paid by the Company on raw materials and other materials included in the cost of producing finished product. The Company recorded VAT payable and VAT receivable net of payments in the financial statements. The VAT tax return is filed offsetting the payables against the receivables.
 
i. Rental income recognition
 
Rental income from operating leases related to our unused factory facilities with 21,132 square meters of floor space is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease period. The Company recognized $266,078 (equivalent to RMB1.8 million) and $439,168 (equivalent to RMB3.0 million) rental income for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
 
j. Advertising Costs
 
Advertising costs, except for costs associated with direct-response advertising are charged to operations when incurred. The costs of direct-response advertising are capitalized and amortized over the period during which future benefits are expected to be received. Advertising expense were $73,273 and $88,596 for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
 
k. Employee Welfare Benefit
 
The Company has established an employee welfare plan in accordance with Chinese law and regulations. The Company makes annual pre-tax contributions of 14% of all employees’ salaries. Starting from the date on which the China subsidiary became foreign fully owned company in August 2006, the Company’s China subsidiary expenses were recorded all employee welfare benefit as incurred. The total expense for the above amounted to $7,840 and $8,971 for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
 
l. Research and development costs
 
Research and development costs are charged to operations when incurred and are included in operating expenses.  The amounts charged in 2010 and 2009 were $18,173 and $11,084 respectively.
 
m. Income Taxes
 
The Company’s PRC subsidiary files income tax returns under the Income Tax law of the People’s Republic of China concerning Foreign Investment Enterprises and Foreign Enterprises and local income tax laws.
 
The Company follows the method of accounting for income taxes prescribed by ASC 740  –”Accounting for Income Taxes”, which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowance are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
 
n. Comprehensive Income
 
ASC 220, “Reporting Comprehensive Income”, established standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances in a full set of general purpose financial statements. ASC 220 defines comprehensive income to include all changes in equity except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. Among other disclosures, ASC 220 requires that all items that are required to be recognized under current accounting standards as components of comprehensive income be reported in a financial statement that is presented with the same prominence as other financial statements. The Company’s only current component of comprehensive income is the foreign currency translation adjustment. The Company has reported the components of comprehensive income on its statements of stockholders’ equity.
 
37
 
 

 
o. Foreign Currency Translation
 
The Company financial statements are presented in the $, which is the Company’s reporting currency, while its functional currency is Renminbi (RMB), the national currency of the PRC, is the primary currency of the economic environment in which the operations of CHFY and Zhonghao Bio are conducted. Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded at the functional currency rate ruling at the date of transaction. Any differences between the initially recorded amount and the settlement amount are recorded as a gain or loss on foreign currency transaction in the consolidated statements of income. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency are translated at the functional currency rate of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. Any differences are taken to profit or loss as a gain or loss on foreign currency translation in the statements of income.

In accordance with ASC 830, Foreign Currency Matters, the Company translates the assets and liabilities into $ using the rate of exchange prevailing at the balance sheet date and the statements of income and cash flows are translated at an average rate during the reporting period, and equity is translated at the historical exchange rates. As a result, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the consolidated statements of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the consolidated balance sheets. Adjustments resulting from the translation from RMB into U.S. dollar are recorded in stockholders’ equity as part of accumulated other comprehensive income. The exchange rates used for financial statements in accordance with ASC 830, Foreign Currency Matters, are as follows:

   
Average Rate for the year
 
December 31,
 
2010
   
2009
 
Renminbi (RMB)
    6.76923       6.8311

United States dollar ($)
  $ 1.00       1.00  

p. Basic and diluted net income per share
 
The Company accounts for net income per common share in accordance with ASC 260, “Earnings per Share” (“EPS”).  ASC 260 requires the disclosure of the potential dilution effect of exercising or converting securities or other contracts involving the issuance of common stock. Basic net income per share is determined based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period.  Diluted net income per share is determined based on the assumption that all dilutive convertible shares and stock options were converted or exercised into common stock.
 
q. Concentration of Credit Risk
 
The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash and equivalents, which are invested in money market accounts and accounts receivable. The Company considers the book value of these instruments to be indicative of their respective fair value. The Company places its temporary cash investments with high credit quality institutions to limit its risk exposure. Most of the Company’s sales are credit sales which are primarily to customers whose ability to pay is dependent upon the industry economics prevailing in their respective areas; however, concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivable is limited due to generally short payment terms. The Company also performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers to help further reduce credit risk.
 
r. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
For certain of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, other receivables, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and short-term debt, the carrying amounts approximate their fair values due to their short maturities.
 

38
 
 

 
ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments held by the Company. ASC Topic 825, “Financial Instruments,” defines fair value, and establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement that enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measures.  The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for receivables and current liabilities qualify as financial instruments and are a reasonable estimate of their fair values because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and their current market rate of interest. The three levels of valuation hierarchy are defined as follows:
 
Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level 2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.
Level 3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.
 
The Company analyzes all financial instruments with features of both liabilities and equity under ASC 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity,” and ASC 815. 

As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company did not identify any assets and liabilities that are required to be presented on the balance sheet at fair value, other than the warrants discussed in Note 18 to the financial statements attached hereto.
 
s. Segment Reporting
 
ASC 280, “Disclosure about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information”, requires disclosure of reportable segments used by management for making operating decisions and assessing performance. Reportable segments are categorized by products and services, geography, legal structure, management structure, or any other manner in which management disaggregates a company. ASC 280 has no effect on the Company’s financial statements as substantially all of the Company’s operations and managements are conducted as a single operating segment.

t. Share-Based Payments

The Company adopted ASC 718, “Compensation-Stock Compensation” (“ASC No. 718”) effective January 1, 2006. ASC No. 718 amends existing accounting pronouncements for share-based payment transactions in which an enterprise receives employee and certain non-employee services in exchange for (a) equity instruments of the enterprise or (b) liabilities that are based on the fair value of the enterprise’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of such equity instruments. ASC No.718 generally requires such transactions to be accounted for using a fair-value-based method.

Impact of Accounting Pronouncements
 
We have adopted, or will adopt, certain recent accounting pronouncements as described in paragraph (t) “Recent Accounting Pronouncements” of Note 3 “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the “Notes of Consolidated Financial Statements” listed under the Financial Statements Section which is attached hereto.  We do not expect that our adoption of any of those pronouncements will have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations.
  
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures
 
As of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (the “Certifying Officers”), we conducted an evaluation of our Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. As defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act, the term “disclosure controls and procedures” means our controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our Company’s management, including the Certifying Officers, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on this evaluation, the Certifying Officers have concluded that our Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2010.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. The Exchange Act defines internal control over financial reporting as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by our board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America and includes those policies and procedures that:
 
§  
pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of our Company;
 
§  
provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures of our Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of our Company; and
  
§  
provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
 
Under the supervision and with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010. The framework on which such evaluation was based is contained in the report entitled “Internal Control — Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the “COSO Report”). Based on that evaluation and the criteria set forth in the COSO Report, management concluded that our Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2010.
 
40
 
 

 
This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management’s report in this annual report.
 
Changes in internal controls

During the fourth quarter of 2010 we implemented certain improvements in our Company’s internal control over financial reporting.  These improvements were in response to the conclusion by our Certifying Officers that, as of June 30 and September 30, 2010, there existed a material weakness in respect of our internal control over financial reporting, specifically in our control over the adoption of ASC 815-15, “Determining Whether an Instrument (or Embedded Feature) is indexed to an Entity's Own Stock” which the FASB finalized in June 2008 and which became effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008.  As in more detail in our Form 10-Q/A for June 30, 2010 and September 30, 2010, each of which was filed with the SEC on March 23, 2011, in response to comments raised by the SEC Staff, we determined that an error was contained in the initial filing of the reports on Form 10-Q as of and for the quarterly periods ended June 30 and September 30, 2010.  Such error related to the accounting for certain warrants issued during April 2010 and July 2010 and our failure to properly apply the accounting principles set forth in ASC 815-15 with respect to such warrants.  Based on the impact of the aforementioned accounting error, we determined to restate our consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2010 and September 30, 2010.  As a result of this material weakness, our CEO and CFO concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, or that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

We believe we have remediated the material weakness identified above. Because the material weakness was related to a lack of sufficient technical accounting expertise and knowledge of accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) that are relevant to the Company’s financial reporting requirements, we believe our addition of an employee within our accounting department has helped to remediate this material weakness.  This employee, who has 14 years of accounting experience, was hired during 2010 and has been assigned the task (among others) of helping to establish and carry out internal audit procedures and assisting with certain other accounting and related finance matters.  Since August 2010, we also have conducted several internal training sessions for various members of our accounting staff relating to various subjects including understanding and application of US GAAP and communication skills such as English-language report writing.  We believe that the hiring of an additional accounting department employee will permit our senior financial management team, led by our CFO, to increase its focus on the implementation of new accounting pronouncements such as ASC 815-15, and on our compliance with U.S. GAAP generally, and enhance our ability to properly account and report on complex material or non-routine transactions.  In addition, we believe our greater emphasis on the training of our internal accounting staff and our new internal audit procedures will also improve the effectiveness and reliability of our internal control over financial reporting. 

Although the management of our Company, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, believes that our disclosure controls and internal controls currently provide reasonable assurance that our desired control objectives have been met, management does not expect that our disclosure controls or internal controls will necessarily prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is also based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

On May 19, 2010, the Board established three committees: the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee and the Nominating and Governance Committee. Each of these committees are comprised entirely of independent directors. From time to time, the Board may establish other committees. The Board has adopted a written charter for each of the committees which may be obtained, without charge, by contacting the Corporate Secretary, China Green Material Technologies, Inc., No. 1 Yantai Third Rord, Centralism Area, Haping Road, Harbin Economic and Technological Development Zone, Harbin, Heilongjiang Province 150060 People’s Republic of China or through our website at www.sinogreenmaterial.com.

Prior to establishing the committees of the Board of Directors, our entire Board of Directors handled the functions that would otherwise be handled by each of the committees.

Governance Structure
 
Currently, our Chief Executive Officer is also our Chairman. The Board of Directors believes that, at this time, having a combined Chief Executive Officer and Chairman is the appropriate leadership structure for the Company. In making this determination, the Board of Directors considered, among other matters, Mr. Su’s experience and tenure of having been Chairman and Chief Executive Officer since 2007, and felt that his experience, knowledge, and personality allowed him to serve ably as both Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. Among the benefits of a combined Chief Executive Officer/Chairman considered by the Board of Directors is that such structure promotes clearer leadership and direction for our Company and allows for a single, focused chain of command to execute our strategic initiatives and business plans.

The Board’s Role in Risk Oversight
 
The Board oversees that the assets of the Company are properly safeguarded, that the appropriate financial and other controls are maintained, and that the Company’s business is conducted wisely and in compliance with applicable laws and regulations and proper governance. Included in these responsibilities is the Board of Directors’ oversight of the various risks facing the Company. In this regard, the Board seeks to understand and oversee critical business risks. The Board does not view risk in isolation. Risks are considered in virtually every business decision and as part of the Company’s business strategy. The Board recognizes that it is neither possible nor prudent to eliminate all risk. Indeed, purposeful and appropriate risk-taking is essential for the Company to be competitive on a global basis and to achieve its objectives.
 
While the Board oversees risk management, Company management is charged with managing risk. The Company has robust internal processes and a strong internal control environment to identify and manage risks and to communicate with the Board. The Board and the Audit Committee monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of the internal controls and the risk management program at least annually. The Board implements its risk oversight function both as a whole and through Committees. Much of the work is delegated to various Committees, which meet regularly and report back to the full Board. All Committees play significant roles in carrying out the risk oversight function. In particular:
 
 
The Audit Committee oversees risks related to the Company’s financial statements, the financial reporting process, accounting and legal matters. The Audit Committee oversees the internal audit function and the Company’s ethics programs, including the Codes of Business Conduct. The Audit Committee members meet separately with representatives of the independent auditing firm; and
 
 
The Compensation Committee evaluates the risks and rewards associated with the Company’s compensation philosophy and programs. The Compensation Committee reviews and approves compensation programs with features that mitigate risk without diminishing the incentive nature of the compensation. Management discusses with the Compensation Committee the procedures that have been put in place to identify and mitigate potential risks in compensation.
 
Independent Directors

Our Board has determined that the majority of the Board is comprised of “independent directors” within the meaning of applicable Nasdaq listing standards relating to Board composition and Section 301 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Our independent directors are Messrs. Lianjun Luo, Dongxiang (William) Wang and Johnson Shun-Pong Lau.

Audit Committee

Our Company has a separately-designated standing audit committee established in accordance with section 3(a)(58)(A of the Exchange Act.  Our audit committee consists of Messrs. Lianjun Luo, William Wang and Johnson Lau, each of whom is “independent” as that term is defined under the Nasdaq listing standards. The audit committee oversees our accounting and financial reporting processes and the audits of the financial statements of our company.  Our Board has determined that Mr. Lianjun Luo is an audit committee financial expert as that term is defined by the applicable SEC rules. The audit committee is responsible for, among other things:

 
selecting our independent auditors and pre-approving all auditing and non-auditing services permitted to be performed by our independent auditors;

 
reviewing with our independent auditors any audit problems or difficulties and management’s response;

 
reviewing and approving all proposed related-party transactions, as defined in Item 404 of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended;

 
discussing the annual audited financial statements with management and our independent auditors;

 
reviewing major issues as to the adequacy of our internal controls and any special audit steps adopted in light of significant internal control deficiencies;

 
annually reviewing and reassessing the adequacy of our audit committee charter;
 

45
 
 

 
 
meeting separately and periodically with management and our internal and independent auditors;

 
reporting to the full board of directors; and

 
such other matters that are specifically delegated to our audit committee by our board of directors from time to time.

Compensation Committee

Our compensation committee consists of Messrs. Johnson Lau and William Wang, each of whom is “independent” as that term is defined under the Nasdaq listing standards. Our compensation committee assists the board in reviewing and approving the compensation structure of our directors and executive officers, including all forms of compensation to be provided to our directors and executive officers. Our chief executive officer may not be present at any committee meeting during which his compensation is deliberated. The compensation committee is responsible for, among other things:

 
approving and overseeing the compensation package for our executive officers;

 
reviewing and making recommendations to the board with respect to the compensation of our directors;

 
reviewing and approving corporate goals and objectives relevant to the compensation of our chief executive officer, evaluating the performance of our chief executive officer in light of those goals and objectives, and setting the compensation level of our chief executive officer based on this evaluation; and

 
reviewing periodically and making recommendations to the board regarding any long-term incentive compensation or equity plans, programs or similar arrangements, annual bonuses, employee pension and welfare benefit plans.

The compensation committee has sole authority to retain and terminate outside counsel, compensation consultants retained to assist the compensation committee in determining the compensation of the Chief Executive Officer or senior executive officers, or other experts or consultants, as it deems appropriate, including sole authority to approve the firms' fees and other retention terms. The compensation committee may also form and delegate authority to subcommittees and may delegate authority to one or more designated members of the compensation committee. The compensation committee may from time to time seek recommendations from the executive officers of the Company regarding matters under the purview of the compensation committee, though the authority to act on such recommendations rests solely with the compensation committee.

Governance and Nominating Committee

Our governance and nominating committee consists of Messrs. Johnson Shun-Pong Lau and Dongxiang (William) Wang, each of whom is “independent” as that term is defined under the Nasdaq listing standards. The governance and nominating committee assists the board of directors in identifying individuals qualified to become our directors and in determining the composition of the board and its committees. The governance and nominating committee is responsible for, among other things:

 
identifying and recommending to the board nominees for election or re-election to the board, or for appointment to fill any vacancy;

 
reviewing annually with the board the current composition of the board in light of the characteristics of independence, age, skills, experience and availability of service to us;

 
identifying and recommending to the board the directors to serve as members of the board’s committees; and

 
monitoring compliance with our code of business conduct and ethics.

Director Qualifications

Directors are responsible for overseeing the Company’s business consistent with their fiduciary duty to shareowners. This significant responsibility requires highly-skilled individuals with various qualities, attributes and professional experience. The Board believes that there are general requirements for service on the Company’s Board of Directors that are applicable to all directors and that there are other skills and experience that should be represented on the Board as a whole but not necessarily by each director. The Board and the Governance and Nominating Committee of the Board consider the qualifications of directors and director candidates individually and in the broader context of the Board’s overall composition and the Company’s current and future needs.

Qualifications for All Directors
 
In its assessment of each potential candidate, including those recommended by shareowners, the Governance and Nominating Committee considers the nominee’s judgment, integrity, experience, independence, understanding of the Company’s business or other related industries and such other factors the Governance and Nominating Committee determines are pertinent in light of the current needs of the Board. The Governance and Nominating Committee also takes into account the ability of a director to devote the time and effort necessary to fulfill his or her responsibilities to the Company. 

The Board and the Governance and Nominating Committee require that each director be a recognized person of high integrity with a proven record of success in his or her field. Each director must demonstrate innovative thinking, familiarity with and respect for corporate governance requirements and practices, an appreciation of multiple cultures and a commitment to sustainability and to dealing responsibly with social issues. In addition to the qualifications required of all directors, the Board assesses intangible qualities including the individual’s ability to ask difficult questions and, simultaneously, to work collegially.

The Board does not have a specific diversity policy, but considers diversity of race, ethnicity, gender, age, cultural background and professional experiences in evaluating candidates for Board membership. Diversity is important because a variety of points of view contribute to a more effective decision-making process.
 
Qualifications, Attributes, Skills and Experience to be Represented on the Board as a Whole

The Board has identified particular qualifications, attributes, skills and experience that are important to be represented on the Board as a whole, in light of the Company’s current needs and business priorities. The Company’s services are performed in areas of future growth located outside of the United States. Accordingly, the Board believes that international experience or specific knowledge of key geographic growth areas and diversity of professional experiences should be represented on the Board. In addition, the Company’s business is multifaceted and involves complex financial transactions. Therefore, the Board believes that the Board should include some directors with a high level of financial literacy and some directors who possess relevant business experience as a Chief Executive Officer or President. Our business involves complex technologies in a highly specialized industry. Therefore, the Board believes that extensive knowledge of the Company’s business and industry should be represented on the Board. The Company’s business also requires compliance with a variety of regulatory requirements and relationships with various governmental entities. Therefore, the Board believes that governmental, political or diplomatic expertise should be represented on the Board.

Base Salaries

The Board is responsible for determining the appropriate level of compensation for each of our executive officers. Salaries for all executive officers for a given year are determined at the first Board meeting in January of each year. While Mr. Su does not participate in any discussions or voting related to his salary, he recommends salary levels for our Company’s other executive officers to the Board, which makes the ultimate determination of the salaries for such individuals.

In making recommendations regarding salary levels, the Board consults the salary levels of the industry.  In addition, the Board takes into account the performance of an individual over the previous year in determining the current year’s salary level.

Employment Agreements
 
Our Company has entered into a standard employment agreement with each of our executive officers. Each agreement has a term of one year, except for the agreement with Mr. Low, which has a term of three years. Except for the salary, the terms of the agreements are substantially identical, and reflect employment standards common in China as a result of law or customary business practices.

On July 1, 2010, the Company and Mr. Yan Seong Low entered into an employment agreement (the “Employment Agreement”), which is effective as of July 1, 2010 (the “Effective Date”). The term of the Employment Agreement is for three years (the “Initial Term”) commencing on the Effective Date and shall be automatically renewed for successive three years terms, unless either party gives the other party written notice of its intention not to renew the Agreement no later than 90 days prior to the expiration of the current term.

Our Board of Directors has determined that the provision by Golman Kurland and Mohidin LLP of the non-audit services referred to above is compatible with the maintenance of that firm’s independence.

Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures

Prior to the establishment of Audit Committee in May 2010, our Board of Directors instituted a policy to pre-approve audit and non-audit services (i.e., audit-related services, tax services, and all other services).  Mr. Zhonghao Su was given limited delegated authority from time to time by our Board to pre-approve permitted non-audit services.  Pre-approval is obtained prior to the commencement of the services.  Our Board also considers on a continuing basis whether the provision of non-audit services is compatible with maintaining the independence of the external auditor.

Under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, all audit and non-audit services performed by our auditors must be approved in advance by our Audit Committee to assure that such services do not impair the auditors’ independence from us. In accordance with its policies and procedures, our Audit Committee pre-approved the audit services performed by Goldman Kurland and Mohidin LLP for our consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2010. Our Audit Committee delegated its pre-approval authority regarding the non-audited services to its Chair. The Chair of our Audit Committee pre-approved the non-audit services performed by Goldman Kurland and Mohidin LLP for our consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2010.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
 

The Board of Directors and stockholders of
China Green Material Technologies, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of China Green Material Technologies, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“the Company”) as of December 31, 2009 and the related consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2009. The financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

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. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit includes consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides 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 China Green Material Technologies, Inc. and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2009 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2009 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

CHINA GREEN MATERIAL TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2010 AND 2009
 
1. Organization and Principal Activities
 
China Green Material Technologies, Inc. is a Nevada corporation incorporated in December 1997 under the name Mount Merlot Estates, Inc.  At the time we acquired our current business in February 2007, our corporate name was “Ubrandit.com.”  On January 14, 2008, we changed our name to “China Green Material Technologies, Inc.”  References in these Notes to the “Company” refer to China Green Material Technologies, Inc. and where applicable its direct and indirect wholly owned subsidiaries.   On or about February 25, 2011, and since then, the Company’s shares have been quoted on the OTCQB market operated by Pink OTC Markets Inc. under the symbol CAGM.PK.  Prior to such time, the Company’s shares were traded on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board (the “Bulletin Board”) operated by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority under the symbol CAGM.OB, whereas before its name change in January 2008 the Company’s shares were quoted on the Bulletin Board under the symbol UBDT.OB

On February 9, 2007, the Company acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of Advanced Green Materials, Inc. (“AGM”), a Nevada corporation, by merging a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company into AGM.  Through AGM, the Company indirectly owns all of the outstanding capital stock of ChangFangYuan Hi-tech Environment-Friendly Industrial Co., Ltd. (“CHFY”), a corporation organized under the laws of the People Republic of China (“China” or the “PRC”).  AGM has substantially no operations and substantially no assets other than the shares of CHFY.  Through CHFY, the Company operates the business described in this annual report on Form 10-K and in the financial statements included herein.   The Company’s acquisition of AMG and CHFY is sometimes herein referred to as the “2007 Business Combination.”  Immediately before the 2007 Business Combination, the Company had no material assets and no material operations and therefore it was considered a “shell company” (as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934).  As consideration for the acquisition of AGM and CHFY, the Company issued to the former owners of AGM shares of the Company’s Series A Convertible Preferred Stock that were convertible into approximately 98% of the Company’s outstanding common shares, on an after-converted basis. 
 
On January 14, 2008, concurrent with our name change, the Company effected a 1-for-150 reverse split of its common stock.  In connection with the split, the Company issued additional shares to certain shareholders so that, after the split, no shareholder owned fewer than 100 shares.  The following month, on February 29, 2008, the holders of all outstanding shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock converted their preferred shares into 18,150,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, and all shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock were cancelled. 
 
CHFY was incorporated in the Heilongjiang Province of China on May 12, 1999. It was known as Harbin TianHao Technology Co., Ltd., and changed its name to Harbin ChangFangYuan Hi-Tech Industrial Co., Ltd. on September 28, 2004, and further changed its name to Harbin ChangFangYuan Hi-Tech Environment-Friendly Industry Co., Ltd. on September 1, 2006.  AGM acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of CHFY on August 18, 2006.
 
Prior to May 2006, CHFY engaged only in product development and the establishment of manufacturing facilities and marketing relationships.  CHFY’s business realized its first revenue in May 2006. 

On June 25, 2010, AGM completed the incorporation of a wholly owned subsidiary, Heilongjiang Zhonghao Starch-Based Biodegradable Materials Co., Ltd. (“Zhonghao Bio”) with registered capital of $2.8 million in the Heilongjiang Province of China. Through Zhonghao Bio, the Company owns our new 5,921 square-meter corporate head office and manufacturing facility located in the Harbin Economic and Technological Development Zone, which commenced manufacturing, development, marketing and production of biodegradable packaging materials during the first quarter of 2011. 

2. Basis of Presentation
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company and all entities in which the Company has a controlling voting interest. These consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of China Green Material Technologies, Inc. and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation.
  
F-8
 
 

 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“US GAAP”). This basis of accounting differs from that used in the statutory accounts of some of the Company’s subsidiaries, which were prepared in accordance with the accounting principles and relevant financial regulations applicable to enterprises with foreign investment in the PRC (“PRC GAAP”). Necessary adjustments were made to the subsidiaries’ statutory accounts to conform to US GAAP to be included in these consolidated financial statements.
 
3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
a. Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates include the estimate of useful lives of property and equipment, intangible asset and know-how right, the deferred tax valuation allowance and the fair value of stock warrants and stock awards. Estimates, by their nature, are based on judgment and available information. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

b. Cash and Equivalents
 
The Company considers all highly liquid temporary cash investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
 
c. Accounts Receivable
 
Accounts receivables are recognized and carried at original invoice amount less allowance for doubtful accounts based on a review of all outstanding amounts at year end. Management determines the allowance for doubtful accounts by using historical experience applied to an aging account and the estimated losses are based on a review of the current status of the existing receivables. The Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts equal to the estimated losses that will be incurred in the collection of all receivables. The allowance for doubtful accounts as of December 31, 2010 and 2009 was $0 and $32,786, respectively. Trade receivables are written off when deemed uncollectible.
 
d. Inventories
 
The Company value inventories, consisting of finished goods, work in progress, raw materials, and packaging material and others, at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined on the weighted average cost method. Cost of raw materials is determined on a first-in, first-out basis (“FIFO”). Finished goods are determined on a weight average basis and are comprised of direct materials, direct labor, and an appropriate proportion of overhead.
 
e. Property and Equipment
 
Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Expenditures for major additions and betterments are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred. Depreciation of property and equipment is computed by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the lease term or the useful lives of the assets. Upon sale or retirement of plant and equipment, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reflected in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income.
 
 f. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
 
The Company evaluates the recoverability of its other long-lived assets, including amortizing intangible assets, if circumstances indicate impairment may have occurred pursuant to ASC 360. This analysis is performed by comparing the respective carrying values of the assets to the current and expected future cash flows, on an undiscounted basis, to be generated from such assets. If such analysis indicates that the carrying value of these assets is not recoverable, the carrying value of such assets is reduced to fair value through a charge to the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income.
  
F-9
 
 

 
g. Intangible Assets
 
At December 31, 2010 intangible assets consist of a land use right. With the adoption of ASC 350, intangible assets with a definite life are amortized on a straight-line basis. The land use right is being amortized over its estimated life of 50 years.  During 2009 we disposed of a patent right which, to its disposal, was being amortized over its estimated life of 20 years. During 2009 the Company determined it would not use the patent right and accordingly disposed of the patent right and incurred a loss on the disposition of $395,251 which was recognized during the quarter ended September 30, 2009.  Our interests in the patent rights and related technology acquired by us in 2009 are accounted for on the balance sheet as "Know-how Right, Net."
 
Intangible assets with a definite life are tested for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that a carrying amount of an asset (asset group) may not be recoverable. An impairment loss would be recognized when the carrying amount of an asset exceeds the estimated undiscounted cash flows used in determining the fair value of the asset. The amount of the impairment loss to be recorded is calculated by the excess of the asset’s carrying value over its fair value. Fair value is generally determined using a discounted cash flow analysis. Costs related to internally develop intangible assets are expensed as incurred.
 
h. Revenue Recognition
 
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 605, Revenue Recognition, when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, collection is reasonably assured and delivery of products has occurred or services have been rendered. Revenue includes sales of products. Products revenue represents the invoiced value of goods sold recognized upon the delivery of goods to customers, net of allowance for estimated returns, when both title and risk of loss transfer to the customer, provided that no significant obligations remain. Deferred revenue represents the undelivered portion of invoiced value of goods sold to customers. The Company does not provide unconditional right of return, price protection or any other concessions to its customers.

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

Sales and purchases are recorded net of VAT collected and paid as the Company acts as an agent for the government

i. Rental income recognition
 
Rental income from operating leases related to our unused factory facilities with 21,132 square meters of floor space is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease period. The Company recognized $266,078 (equivalent to RMB1.8 million) and $439,168 (equivalent to RMB3.0 million) rental income for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
 
j. Advertising Costs
 
Advertising costs, except for costs associated with direct-response advertising, are charged to operations when incurred. The costs of direct-response advertising are capitalized and amortized over the period during which future benefits are expected to be received. Advertising expenses were $73,273 and $88,596 for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
 
k. Employee Welfare Benefit
 
The Company has established an employee welfare plan in accordance with Chinese law and regulations. The Company makes annual pre-tax contributions of 14% of all employees’ salaries. Starting from the date on which the China subsidiary became a foreign fully owned company in August 2006, the Company’s China subsidiary recorded all employee welfare benefit expense as incurred. The total expense for the above was $7,840 and $8,971 for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
 
F-10
 
 

 
l. Research and development costs
 
Research and development costs are expensed to operations when incurred and are included in operating expenses.  The amounts expensed in 2010 and 2009 were $18,173 and $11,084, respectively.
 
m. Income Taxes
 
The Company’s PRC subsidiary files income tax returns under the Income Tax law of the PRC concerning Foreign Investment Enterprises and Foreign Enterprises and local income tax laws.
 
The Company follows the method of accounting for income taxes prescribed by ASC 740  –”Accounting for Income Taxes”, which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowance are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
 
n. Comprehensive Income
 
ASC 220, “Reporting Comprehensive Income”, established standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances in a full set of general purpose financial statements. ASC 220 defines comprehensive income to include all changes in equity except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. Among other disclosures, ASC 220 requires that all items that are required to be recognized under current accounting standards as components of comprehensive income be reported in a financial statement that is presented with the same prominence as other financial statements. The Company’s only current component of comprehensive income is the foreign currency translation adjustment. The Company has reported the components of comprehensive income on its statements of stockholders’ equity.
 
o. Foreign Currency Translation
 
The Company financial statements are presented in the U.S. dollar ($), which is the Company’s reporting currency, while its functional currency is the Renminbi (RMB), the national currency of the PRC and the primary currency of the economic environment in which the operations of CHFY and Zhonghao Bio are conducted. Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded at the functional currency rate prevailing at the date of transaction. Any differences between the initially recorded amount and the settlement amount are recorded as a gain or loss on foreign currency transaction in the consolidated statements of income. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency are translated at the functional currency rate of exchange prevailing at the balance sheet date. Any differences are taken to profit or loss as a gain or loss on foreign currency translation in the statements of income.

In accordance with ASC 830, Foreign Currency Matters, the Company translates the assets and liabilities into $ using the rate of exchange prevailing at the balance sheet date and the statements of income and cash flows are translated at an average rate during the reporting period, and equity is translated at the historical exchange rates. As a result, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the consolidated statements of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the consolidated balance sheets. Adjustments resulting from the translation from RMB into $ are recorded in stockholders’ equity as part of accumulated other comprehensive income. The exchange rates used for financial statements in accordance with ASC 830, Foreign Currency Matters, are as follows:

F-11
 
 

 
p. Basic and diluted net income per share
 
The Company accounts for net income per common share in accordance with ASC 260, “Earnings per Share” (“EPS”).  ASC 260 requires the disclosure of the potential dilution effect of exercising or converting securities or other contracts involving the issuance of common stock. Basic net income per share is determined based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period.  Diluted net income per share is determined based on the assumption that all dilutive convertible shares and stock options were converted or exercised into common stock.
  
q. Concentration of Credit Risk
 
The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash and equivalents, which are invested in non-interest bearing bank deposit accounts, money market accounts and accounts receivable. The Company considers the book value of these instruments to be indicative of their respective fair value. The Company places its temporary cash investments with high credit quality institutions to limit its risk exposure. Most of the Company’s sales are credit sales which are primarily to customers whose ability to pay is dependent upon the industry economics prevailing in their respective areas; however, concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivable is limited due to generally short payment terms. The Company also performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers to help further reduce credit risk.
 
r. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
For certain of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, other receivables, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and short-term debt, the carrying amounts approximate their fair values due to their short maturities.

ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments held by the Company. ASC Topic 825, “Financial Instruments,” defines fair value, and establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement that enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measures.  The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for receivables and current liabilities qualify as financial instruments and are a reasonable estimate of their fair values because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and their current market rate of interest. The three levels of valuation hierarchy are defined as follows:

Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level 2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.
Level 3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.
 
The Company analyzes all financial instruments with features of both liabilities and equity under ASC 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity,” and ASC 815. 

As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company did not identify any assets and liabilities that are required to be presented on the balance sheet at fair value, other than the warrants discussed in Note 18 below.

s. Segment Reporting
 
ASC 280, “Disclosure about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information”, requires disclosure of reportable segments used by management for making operating decisions and assessing performance. Reportable segments are categorized by products and services, geography, legal structure, management structure, or any other manner in which management disaggregates a company. ASC 280 has no effect on the Company’s financial statements as substantially all of the Company’s operations are conducted as a single operating segment.

t. Share-Based Payments

The Company adopted ASC 718, “Compensation-Stock Compensation” (“ASC No. 718”) effective January 1, 2006. ASC No. 718 amends existing accounting pronouncements for share-based payment transactions in which an enterprise receives employee and certain non-employee services in exchange for (a) equity instruments of the enterprise or (b) liabilities that are based on the fair value of the enterprise’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of such equity instruments. ASC No.718 generally requires such transactions to be accounted for using a fair-value-based method

F-12
 
 

 
u. Reclassifications  

Certain prior year amounts were reclassified to conform to the manner of presentation in the current year. 

 v. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2010-06, Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements (“ASU No. 2010-06”). The new standard addresses, among other things, guidance regarding activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Portions of ASU No. 2010-06 that relate to the Level 3 activity disclosures are effective for the annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2010. The Company will provide the required disclosures beginning with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2011. Based on the initial evaluation, we do not anticipate a material impact to our financial position, results of operations or cash flows as a result of this change.

On February 25, 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-09 Subsequent Events Topic 855 “Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements,” effective immediately. The amendments in the ASU remove the requirement for an SEC filer to disclose a date through which subsequent events have been evaluated in both issued and revised financial statements. Revised financial statements include financial statements revised as a result of either correction of an error or retrospective application of US GAAP. The FASB believes these amendments remove potential conflicts with the SEC’s literature. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

On March 5, 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-11 Derivatives and Hedging Topic 815 “Scope Exception Related to Embedded Credit Derivatives.” This ASU clarifies the guidance within the derivative literature that exempts certain credit related features from analysis as potential embedded derivatives requiring separate accounting. The ASU specifies that an embedded credit derivative feature related to the transfer of credit risk that is only in the form of subordination of one financial instrument to another is not subject to bifurcation from a host contract under ASC 815-15-25, Derivatives and Hedging — Embedded Derivatives — Recognition. All other embedded credit derivative features should be analyzed to determine whether their economic characteristics and risks are “clearly and closely related” to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract and whether bifurcation is required. The ASU is effective for the Company on July 1, 2010. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this ASU will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In April 2010, the FASB codified the consensus reached in Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 08-09, “Milestone Method of Revenue Recognition.” FASB ASU No. 2010-17 provides guidance on defining a milestone and determining when it may be appropriate to apply the milestone method of revenue recognition for research and development transactions. FASB ASU No. 2010 – 17 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010, and is effective on a prospective basis for milestones achieved after the adoption date. The Company does not expect that this ASU will have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations when it adopts this update on January 1, 2011.
 
4. Cash – restricted
 
Commencing from 2008, in accordance with the relevant Harbin local tax regulations, the Company is subjected to labor union fees at 2% of total payroll. The general union of city government will return the inherent 40% back to the Company, and requires that the returned amount should be deposited into a special bank account that is restricted to be used only for employees’ welfare purpose by the labor union department of the Company. As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, the amounts of cash - restricted were $4,266 and $3,443, respectively.  From January until October 2010 the Company also had cash deposited in an escrow account as described in Note 17 below.
 
 5. Accounts Receivable
 
The Company generally provides its major customers with short term credit pursuant to which the customers are required to make payment between three months and six months after delivery, depending on the customer’s payment history.  As of December 31, 2010 the accounts receivable balance was $10,097,506 (equivalent to RMB 66,872,753), none of which was outstanding more than six months.

11.   Know-how Right and Contingent Liabilities   
 
On September 17, 2009, to acquire technology for use in the manufacture of the Company’s starch-based material, the Company entered into an agreement to purchase two technologies from four individuals including two related parties, Mr. Zhonghao Su, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, and Mr. Yingjie Qiao, technical director of the Company.  Pursuant to the sales agreement, Mr. Zhonghao Su agreed to contribute his interest in the technologies without any consideration. The total amount payable for these two technologies was RMB 15 million which was the fair value of the know-how right ($2,264,937), of which the Company paid RMB 5 million ($754,979).  The remaining RMB 10 million ($1,509,958), which was recorded as contingent liabilities, will be paid by the Company upon receipt of the patent rights certificates for these two technologies and transfer of the ownership of these patent rights to the Company.  
 
On December 17, 2009, the Company entered into a supplemental agreement with three owners of these technologies, Mr. Yingjie Qiao, Mr, Zhonghao Su, and Mrs. Dongyan Tang, to amend the agreement for the purchase price of the technologies. Pursuant to the supplemental agreement, the Company would only acquire one technology for the total purchase price of RMB15 million ($2,264,937) payable to Mr. Yingjie Qiao and Mrs. Dongyen Tang, of which the Company has already paid RMB5 million ($754,979). The remaining RMB10 million ($1,509,958), which was recorded as contingent liabilities, will be paid by the Company when it receives the patent right certificate for the technology and the ownership of patent right has been completely transferred to the Company. The Company began using this technology for manufacturing in late 2009, and amortize over its estimated useful life of 10 years.

Pursuant to the supplemental agreement, the Company also obtained the right to use the other technology which was the subject of the original agreement and which the Company currently applies in its dry-powder blending process to produce its starch-based material.  The supplemental agreement provides the Company with a royalty-free right to use this other technology as long as it is owned by the current owners, a right of first refusal on any proposed transfers of the technology by the current owners and an option to purchase the technology for RMB15 million ($2,264,937). This technology is the subject of a patent application filed with, and presently under review by, the PRC State Intellectual Property Office. 
 
The know-how right consisted of the following as of December 31, 2010 and 2009:

In accordance with the relevant PRC tax laws and regulations, the Company’s PRC subsidiary, CHFY, is subject to CIT at 33% and 30% tax rate before and after September 1, 2006. Since CHFY became a foreign wholly-own company on August 18, 2006, CHFY had been authorized to reduce its income tax rate by 3% to 30% from the regular 33% tax rate starting from the following month of acquisition date. Commencing from January 2008, the PRC government reduced the regular CIT tax rate from 33% to 25%. However, company entitled to the temporary rate reduction described in the following paragraph must compute the tax based upon original CIT tax rate.
 
In accordance with the relevant tax laws and regulations of the PRC, CHFY is entitled to full exemption from CIT for the first two years and a 50% reduction in CIT for the next three years, commencing from the first profitable year after offsetting all tax losses carried forward from the previous five years. As 2007 was the Company’s first profitable year, CHFY was entitled to a full exemption from CIT for the years 2007 and 2008. Commencing from January 2009, CHFY had begun to be charged CIT at a 15% rate.
 
The deferred income tax assets result from impairment of investment and are deductible when the actual loss on investment is incurred.

Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, (i) $100,000 of the net proceeds was held in escrow to be paid to investor relations firms designated by a representative of certain of the Purchasers and approved by the Company (the “IR Cash”) and (ii) the Company deposited with an escrow agent warrants to purchase 700,000 shares of common stock of the Company at $0.90 per share with cashless exercise rights to be exercisable for one year from the date that such warrants were issued (the “IR Warrants”) to investor relations firms designated by a representative of certain of the Purchasers and approved by the Company. The investor relations firms proposed to receive the IR Cash and the IR Warrants were required to be designated (subject to Company approval) on or before September 30, 2010. On April 6, 2010 and July 12, 2010, the Company issued IR Warrants to purchase 437,500 and 20,000 shares of Common Stock, respectively.  Subsequent to September 30, 2010 and in accordance with the Company’s agreements under the Securities Purchase Agreement, the remaining IR Warrants in escrow, representing the potential right to purchase 242,500 shares, were cancelled.  Restricted cash equal to of $23,651 remained in escrow undisbursed to investor relations firms as of September 30, 2010 and as a result and in accordance with the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement, such cash was returned to the Company prior to December 31, 2010.

18. Stock-based compensation
 
Stock Warrants
 
Pursuant to the January 11, 2010 Securities Purchase Agreement, in April 2010, the Company issued IR Warrants to two investor relations firms to purchase 437,500 shares of Common Stock, and in July 2010, the Company issued IR Warrants to one other investor relations firm to purchase 20,000 shares of Common Stock.  Pursuant to their terms, the warrants will expire in April and July 2011, respectively.  The initial fair market value of the warrants issued in April 2010 was $1,025,812 and was recorded on the balance sheet as deferred consulting expense (i.e., an asset) and a corresponding amount was recorded as a warrants liability. The initial fair market value was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation, using the following assumptions: expected dividend yield 0%, risk-free interest rate of 0.49%, volatility of 289.07%, and an expected term of one year.  The initial fair market value of the warrants issued in July 2010 was $37,693 and was recorded on the balance sheet as deferred consulting expense and a corresponding amount was recorded on the balance sheet as a warrant liability. The initial fair value of these warrants was determined by using the Black-Scholes Options Pricing Model with the following assumptions: discount rate – 0.3%; dividend yield – 0%; expected volatility – 111.31% and term of 1 year.
 
The warrants have a reset provision that would reduce the exercise price to any amount below $0.90 if the Company issues shares below that price.  In accordance with ASC 815, we have accounted for these warrants as derivative liabilities. The initial fair market value of the expense resulting from such warrants is amortized on a straight line basis over the period of service under the agreement with the recipient of the warrants.  Any changes in the fair values of the warrants will be charged to expense or credited to income, as applicable, in the period of change.

At December 31, 2010, the derivative liabilities associated with these warrants had a fair value of $95,085, which was determined using the Black Scholes Option Pricing Model with the following assumptions: discount rate – 0.12%; dividend yield – 0%; expected volatility – 87.07% and expected term of 0.25 year.

19. Reserve Funds
 
The Company’s subsidiary in the PRC is required to maintain certain statutory reserves by appropriating from the profit after taxation in accordance with the relevant laws and regulations in the PRC and articles of association of the subsidiary before declaration or payment of dividends.

The Company accounts for net income per common share in accordance with ASC 260, “Earnings per Share” (“EPS”). ASC 260 requires the disclosure of the potential dilution effect of exercising or converting securities or other contracts involving the issuance of common stock.
