ORGANIZATION AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES

China Chemical Corp. (formerly Bomps Mining, Inc.) was incorporated in the state of California on July 16, 2008. Effective September 24, 2010, Bomps Mining, Inc. changed its name to China Chemical Corp. (“CHCC” or the “Company”).

Gold Champ Consultants Limited, a Hong Kong corporation (“Gold Champ”) is a holding company whose asset is 100% of the registered capital of Zibo Costar Information Consulting Co., Ltd. ("Zibo Costar"), a Wholly Owned Foreign Enterprise ("WFOE") organized under the laws of the People's Republic of China ("PRC").

Zibo Jiazhou Chemical Industry Co., Ltd., a limited liability enterprise organized under the laws of the People's Republic of China ("ZBJZ") is a manufacturing company that is based in Shandong, China. It is principally engaged in the manufacturing of organic chemical compounds.

On September 30 2010, CHCC entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “share exchange”) with Gold Champ and the shareholders of Gold Champ.  As a result of the share exchange, CHCC acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding capital of Gold Champ in exchange for 19,861,700 shares of CHCC’s common stock, par value $0.0001, thereby providing the former shareholders of Gold Champ approximately 66% ownership equity in CHCC at September 30, 2010.

On September 30, 2010, Zibo Costar entered into a series of contractual agreements (known as a “variable interest entity” (VIE) arrangement,) with ZBJZ and its shareholders to govern Zibo Costar’s relationships with ZBJZ.  These contractual arrangements allow the Company to obtain effective control over ZBJZ through the ability to exercise all the rights of ZBJZ's shareholders, the rights to absorb substantially all of the economic residual benefits and the obligation to fund all of the expected losses of ZBJZ. Zibo Costar has been determined to be the primary beneficiary of ZBJZ because it is most closely associated with ZBJZ due to its obligation to provide unlimited financial support and its ability to determine strategic business decisions of ZBJZ through voting rights.  In accordance with SEC Regulation SX-3A-02 and Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 810 ("ASC 810"), Consolidation, the Company, through Zibo Costar, consolidates the operating results of ZBJZ.

ORGANIZATION AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES (CONTINUED)

As of March 31, 2011, the total assets of the consolidated VIE were $269 million, mainly comprising cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, plant and equipment, net, construction in progress and due from related parties.  As of March 31, 2011, the total liabilities of the consolidated VIE were $184 million, mainly comprising short-term bank loans, notes payable and long-term bank loans.  These balances are reflected in Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements with intercompany transactions eliminated. Under the contractual arrangements with the VIEs, the Company has the power to direct activities of the VIEs, and can have assets freely transferred out of the VIEs without any restrictions. Therefore, the Company considers that there is no asset in the VIE that can be used only to settle obligations of the VIE, except for its registered capital of $4.5 million and PRC statutory reserves of $1.9 million as of March 31, 2011. As the VIE is incorporated as a limited liability company under the PRC Company Law, creditors of the VIE do not have recourse to the general credit of the Company for any of the liabilities of the consolidated VIE.

Currently there is no contractual arrangement that requires the Company to provide additional financial support to the VIE. As the Company is conducting its business mainly through the VIE, the Company may provide such support on a discretionary basis in the future, which could expose the Company to a loss.

 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a)  
Basis of Presentation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Rule 8.03 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements.

However, such information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments), which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair presentation of the consolidated financial position and the consolidated results of operations. Results shown for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be obtained for a full year. The condensed balance sheet information as of December 31, 2010 was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 30, 2011. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Form 10-K.

(b)  
Principles of Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CHCC and its subsidiaries and VIE.

Inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

(d)  
Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.

Management makes these estimates using the best information available at the time the estimates are made. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

ASC 820-10, Fair Value Measurements, establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three levels based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market.

  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(e)      Fair Value of Financial Instruments (Continued)

These tiers include:

•Level 1—defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;
•Level 2—defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and
•Level 3—defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.
     
Cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of highly rated money market funds at a variety of well-known PRC and international institutions with original maturities of three months or less. Restricted cash represents time deposits on account for bank acceptance notes, open letters of credit and short-term bank loans. The original cost of these assets approximates fair value due to their short-term maturity.

The carrying amounts of other financial assets and liabilities, such as accounts receivable, notes receivable, prepayments for goods, prepaid expenses and other receivables, lease income receivable, accounts payable, other payables and accrued liabilities, short-term bank loans, customer deposits, notes payable, income tax payable, payable to contractors, due to related parties, current portion of long-term bank loans and current portion of financial obligations, sale-leaseback approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments. The fair value of the Company’s long-term bank loans, financial obligations, sale-lease back and due from related parties is estimated based on the current rates offered to the Company for debt of similar terms and maturities. Under this method, the Company’s fair value of long-term bank loans, financial obligation, sale-lease back and due from related parties was not significantly different from the carrying value at March 31, 2011.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(f)  
Restricted Cash

Restricted cash represents PRC time deposits reserved for settlement of notes payable, open letters of credit in connection with inventory purchases and short-term bank loans. The cash is held in the custody of the bank issuing the notes payable, letter of credit or short-term bank loans, and is restricted as to withdrawal or use, and is currently earning interest.

(g)  
Accounts and Notes Receivable
 
Accounts and notes receivable are carried at net realizable value. An allowance for doubtful accounts is recorded in the period when loss is probable based on an assessment of specific evidence indicating troubled collection, historical experience, accounts aging and other factors. A receivable is written off after all collection efforts have ceased.  There is no provision for accounts receivable or notes receivable for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010.

(h)  
Prepayment for Goods

Prepayments for goods represent cash paid in advance to suppliers for purchases of raw materials. An estimate for doubtful accounts is made when realization of the full amount is no longer probable. At March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company has an allowance for doubtful accounts of $161,170 and $159,538, respectively.

(i)  
Capitalized Interest

The interest cost associated with debt relating to construction projects is capitalized and included in the cost of the project. When no debt is incurred specifically for a project, interest is capitalized on amounts expended on the project using the weighted-average cost of the Company’s outstanding borrowings. Capitalization of interest ceases when the project is substantially completed or development activity is suspended for more than a brief period. Capitalized interest for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 was $427,452 and $348,045, respectively. See Notes 10 and 13.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(m)  
Comprehensive Income

Comprehensive income is defined to include all changes in equity except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. Among other disclosures, all items that are required to recognize under current accounting standards as components of comprehensive income should be reported in a financial statement that is presented with the same prominence as other financial statements. The Company’s current component of other comprehensive income is the foreign currency translation adjustment.

(n)  
Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed similar to basic earnings per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. The Company does not have dilutive securities for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010.

(o)  
Segment

The Company operates in one business segment, the design, development, manufacture, and commercialization of organic chemical materials, such as phthalic anhydride and maleic anhydride and their byproducts, mainly in the PRC. The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is the Chief Executive Officer who, as of March 31, 2011, reviews the operating results when making decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance.

The Company had no sales outside of the PRC for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010.  As substantially all of the Company's long-lived assets and revenues are in and derived from the PRC, geographical segments are not presented.

  LIQUIDITY

The Company has a working capital deficit of $42,283,032 at March 31, 2011. This was in part due to the Company’s use of cash to purchase construction in progress. The Company had $131 million of short-term bank loans and notes payable at March 31, 2011.

The Company currently generates its cash flow through operating income, and the Company had net income of $3,210,461 for the three months ended March 31, 2011. As of the date of this report, the Company has not experienced any liquidity problems in settling payables in the normal course of business or repaying the bank loans or notes payable when they become due.

To improve liquidity, the Company may explore new expansion opportunities and funding sources from which the management may consider seeking external funding and financing. At March 31, 2011, the Company has unused credit lines of approximately $30.4 million in total with two banks for short-term borrowings.

In May 2011, the Company obtained a written commitment from the chief executive officer of the Company to provide working capital to the Company, if needed, in the form of notes payable or personal loans. There can be no assurance that the chief executive officer  will actually execute the commitment or has the ability to execute such commitment, if and when needed.

In May 2011, the Company signed supplemental agreements with certain contractors to extend approximately $15 million of the $32,274,255 purchase commitment payments over the next three years.  See Note 16 (III).

FINANCIAL OBLIGATIONS, SALE-LEASEBACK

In May 2010 and November 2010, the Company refinanced its machinery under sale-leaseback agreements A and B, respectively.

Under the sale-leaseback agreement A, machinery was sold for $2,597,481 and concurrently, the Company leased the machinery back for $2,597,481 with a weighted-average annual interest rate of 27.53%, payable in periodic installments through June 2013. Of the $2,597,481 selling price, $1,514,566 was received in cash, and the remaining balance of $1,082,915 was treated as an advance payment to purchase the machinery back at the expiration date of the lease.  The financial obligation under the sale-leaseback was reduced by the $1,082,915 advance payment.  The transaction was accounted for as a financing arrangement, wherein the machinery remains on the Company’s books and continues to be depreciated. A financial obligation in the amount of $1,514,566, representing the net proceeds of the financial obligation, has been recorded under “Financial obligations, sale-leaseback” in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets, and is being reduced based on lease payments under the financial obligation.

TAXES

(I) Corporation Income Tax (“CIT”)

The CIT rate applicable to our subsidiaries and VIE is 25%. However, in accordance with the relevant taxation laws in the PRC, from the time that a company has its first profitable tax year, a foreign investment company is exempt from corporate income tax for its first two years and is then entitled to a 50% tax reduction for the succeeding three years. For the Company, the first profitable year for income tax purposes as a foreign investment company was 2006. The Company was awarded the High-Tech Enterprise Award which entitles the Company a favourable tax rate of 15% for the year ended December 31, 2011. The tax rate for ZBJZ was 15% and 12.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Effective January 1, 2007, the Company adopted FASB ASC 740-10. The interpretation addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements.

In June 2006, the FASB issued FASB ASC 740-10 which seeks to reduce the diversity in practice associated with the accounting and reporting for uncertainty in income tax positions. This interpretation prescribes a comprehensive model for the financial statement recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in an income tax return. FASB ASC 740-10 presents a two-step process for evaluating a tax position. The first step is to determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, based on the technical merits of the position. The second step is to measure the benefit to be recorded from tax positions that meet the more likely than not recognition threshold, by determining the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement, and recognizing that amount in the financial statements. At the date of adoption, and as of March 31, 2011, the Company does not have a liability for unrecognized tax benefits. There was no effect on financial condition or results of operations as a result of implementing FASB ASC 740-10.

Significant Accounting Policies and Management Estimates

This section should be read together with the Summary of Significant Accounting Policies included as Note 2 to the financial statements included in the Form 10-K filed on March 30, 2011.

China Chemical Corp. (formerly Bomps Mining, Inc.) was incorporated in the state of California on July 16, 2008. Effective September 24, 2010, Bomps Mining, Inc. changed its name to China Chemical Corp. (“CHCC” or the “Company”).

Gold Champ Consultants Limited, a Hong Kong corporation (“Gold Champ”) is a holding company whose asset is 100% of the registered capital of Zibo Costar Information Consulting Co., Ltd. (“Zibo Costar”), a wholly- foreign owned enterprise (“WFOE”) organized under the laws of the PRC.

Zibo Jiazhou Chemical Industry Co., Ltd., a limited liability enterprise organized under the laws of the PRC (“ZBJZ”) is a manufacturing company that is based in Shandong, PRC. It is principally engaged in the manufacturing of organic chemical compounds.

On September 30 2010, we entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “share exchange”) with Gold Champ and the shareholders of Gold Champ.  As a result of the share exchange, we acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding capital of Gold Champ in exchange for 19,861,700 shares of our common stock, par value $0.0001, thereby providing the former shareholders of Gold Champ approximately 66% ownership equity in the Company at September 30, 2010. Thus, Gold Champ became our wholly owned subsidiary.

On September 30, 2010, Zibo Costar entered into a series of contractual agreements (known as a “variable interest entity” (VIE) arrangement), with ZBJZ and its shareholders to govern Zibo Costar’s relationships with ZBJZ.
 
i.  
Exclusive service agreements: Under these agreements Zibo Costar provides exclusive management services and exclusive technology consulting services to ZBJZ in exchange for substantially all of the net income of ZBJZ.

ii.  
Equity pledge agreement: As collateral to ensure ZBJZ’s payments under the exclusive service agreements, the shareholders of ZBJZ, through an equity pledge agreement, pledged all of their rights and interests in ZBJZ, including voting rights and dividend rights, to Zibo Costar.

iii.  
Exclusive option agreement: In addition, the shareholders of ZBJZ, through an exclusive option agreement, granted to Zibo Costar an exclusive, irrevocable and unconditional right to purchase part or all of the equity interests in ZBJZ when the purchase becomes permissible under the relevant PRC laws.

These contractual arrangements allow the Company, through Zibo Costar, to obtain effective control over ZBJZ through the ability to exercise all the rights of ZBJZ's shareholders, the rights to absorb substantially all of the economic residual benefits and the obligation to fund all of the expected losses of ZBJZ. Zibo Costar has been determined to be the primary beneficiary of ZBJZ because it is most closely associated with ZBJZ due to its obligation to provide unlimited financial support and its ability to determine strategic business decisions of ZBJZ through voting rights. In accordance with SEC Regulation SX-3A-02 and Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 810 (“ASC 810”), Consolidation, the Company, through Zibo Costar, consolidates the operating results of ZBJZ.

We believe that our contractual arrangements with ZBJZ, the VIE, are in compliance with PRC laws and legally enforceable.  The shareholders of the VIE are also shareholders of the Company except YLL Investment Group which is the non-controlling shareholder of Zibo Costar and therefore have no current interest in seeking to act contrary to the contractual arrangements.  However, uncertainties in the PRC legal system could limit the Company’s ability enforce these contractual arrangements and if the shareholders of the VIE were to reduce their interest in the Company, their interests may diverge from that of the Company and it may potentially increase the risk that they would seek to act contrary to the contractual terms, for example by influencing the VIEs not to pay the service fees when required to do so.

As of March 31, 2011, the total assets of the consolidated VIE were $269 million, mainly comprising cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, plant and equipment, net, construction in progress and due from related parties.  As of March 31, 2011, the total liabilities of the consolidated VIE were $184 million, mainly comprising short-term bank loans, notes payable and long-term bank loans.  These balances are reflected in Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements with intercompany transactions eliminated. Under the contractual arrangements with the VIE, the Company has the power to direct activities of the VIE, and can have assets freely transferred out of the VIE without any restrictions. Therefore, the Company considers that there is no asset in the VIE that can be used only to settle obligations of the VIE, except for its registered capital of $4.5 million and PRC statutory reserves of $1.9 million as of March 31, 2011. As the VIE is incorporated as a limited liability company under the PRC Company Law, creditors of the VIE do not have recourse to the general credit of the Company for any of the liabilities of the consolidated VIE.

Currently there is no contractual arrangement that requires the Company to provide additional financial support to the VIE. As the Company is conducting its business mainly through the VIE, the Company may provide such support on a discretionary basis in the future, which could expose the Company to a loss.

Principles of Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries and VIE.

Inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.
 
Management makes these estimates using the best information available at the time the estimates are made. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
 
Estimates Affecting Accounts Receivable and Prepayments for Goods

The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect our reporting of assets and liabilities. These estimates are particularly significant where they affect the reported net realizable value of the Company’s accounts receivable, prepayments for goods.

At March 31, 2011, the Company provided no reserve against accounts receivable. Management’s estimate of no reserve on accounts receivable at March 31, 2011 was based on the aged nature of these accounts receivable. In making its judgment, management assessed its customers’ ability to continue to pay their outstanding invoices on a timely basis, and whether their financial position might deteriorate significantly in the future, which would result in their inability to pay their debts to the Company.

At March 31, 2011, the Company provided an allowance against its prepayments for goods amounting to $161,170. Management’s estimate of the appropriate reserve on the prepayments for goods at March 31, 2011 was based on the aged nature of these prepayments for goods. In making its judgment, management assessed its suppliers’ ability to continue to provide goods or repayment their outstanding debts on a timely basis, and whether their financial position might deteriorate significantly in the future, which would result in their inability to pay their debts to the Company.

While the Company currently believes that there is little likelihood that actual results will differ materially from these current estimates, if the financial condition of our customers or suppliers deteriorates in the near future, the Company could realize significant write downs for uncollectible accounts receivable or prepayments for goods.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue represents the invoiced value of goods sold recognized upon the delivery of goods to customers. Revenue is recognized when all of the following criteria are met:
 
·  
Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists,
 
·  
Delivery has occurred or services have been rendered,
 
·  
The seller’s price to the buyer is fixed or determinable, and
 
·  
Collectability is reasonably assured.
 
Management conducts credit background checks for new customers as a means to reduce the subjectivity of assuming collectability. The majority of the Company's revenue results from sales contracts with customers and revenue is recorded upon the shipment of goods.
 
New Accounting Pronouncements
 
There were no new accounting pronouncements not yet adopted by the Company that would have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2011.

Revenue

The Company’s revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was $18,417,150, which represented an increase of 9.75% from $16,781,643 for the same period in the prior year. The increase was due to the increase in the sales price of MAH and PA as compared to the same period of last year.

The sale of PA decreased by 9.53% to $6,871,748 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 from $7,595,791 for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The decrease in volume of 18.04% was due to lower production for the three months ended March 31, 2011 from March 31, 2010.  The increase in sales price of 6.50% was due to the increase in average sales price per metric ton for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and March 31, 2010, respectively.
 
The production of PA decreased by 24.58% to 6,095 metric tons for the three months ended March 31, 2011 from 8,081 metric tons for the three months ended March 31, 2010. This was due to declining demand for PA.
 
The sale of MAH increased by 47.75% to $9,016,640 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 from $6,102,581 for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The increase in sales volume of 31.02% was due to the increase of production capacity that went online for the three months ended March 31, 2011 from March 31, 2010.  The increase in sales price of 8.80% was due to the increase in average sales price per metric ton for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and March 31, 2010, respectively.
 
The production of MAH increased by 59.39% to 7,775 metric tons for the three months ended March 31, 2011 from 4,878 metric tons for the three months ended March 31, 2010. This was due to the increase in our production capacity that went on line in January 2011.
 
The average sales price per metric ton is calculated by taking total sales divided by the sales volume for PA and MAH for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
 
Cost of Goods Sold

Cost of goods sold for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was $14,656,333 which is 79.58% of total revenues and represents a 19.17% increase as compared to $12,298,949 which is 73.29% of total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The increase was due to an increase in the price of raw materials as compared to the same period of last year.

The decrease in volume of the raw material, o-xylene, used for the production of PA was 18.04% due to the decrease in production for the three months ended March 31, 2011 from March 31, 2010.  The increase in cost of o-xylene was 17.00% was due to the increase in average price per metric ton for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
 
The increase in volume of the raw material, coking benzene, used for the production of MAH was 31.02% due to the increase of production for the three months ended March 31, 2011 from March 31, 2010.  The increase in cost of coking benzene of 18.00% was due to the increase in average price per metric ton for the three months ended March 31, 2011 as compared to the same period in 2010.

Cost of goods sold as a percentage of revenue may fluctuate in the future. The main cost driver is the raw materials, o-xylene and coking benzene, which attribute approximately 90% of the cost of goods sold.  This fluctuation may primarily be due to changes in the price of raw materials, which can have a significant impact on the cost of goods sold.

Gross Profit

The Company’s gross profit decreased by $721,877, or 16.10%, to $3,760,817 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 as compared to $4,482,694 for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The decrease was due to an increase in raw materials as compared to the same period of last year.
 
Operating Income

The Company’s operating income for the three months ended March 31, 2011 decreased 21.69% to $3,301,619 from $4,216,065 reported for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The decrease was due to an increase in raw materials as compared to the same period of last year.

Operating Expenses
 
General and administrative expenses

The Company incurred general and administrative expenses of $440,083 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, representing an increase of $176,095, or 66.71%, as compared to $263,988 for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The increase was primarily due to an increase in costs associated with consulting fees compared to the same period of last year.

Selling and distribution expenses

The Company incurred selling and distribution expenses of $19,115 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, representing an increase of $16,474, or 623.78%, as compared to $2,641 for the three months ended March 31, 2010.
 
Lease Income from a Non- Related Party and Related Party, Net

The Company has lease income, net of $802,715 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, representing an increase of $97,858, or 13.88%, as compared to $704,857 for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The increase was due to the increase in the rental fee.

Interest Expense, Net

Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was $981,171 which represents a 181.42% increase from $348,646 for the same period of last year. The increase of $632,525 was mainly due to the increase in the average balances of short-term bank loans and amortization of financial obligations of $527,144 during this period.

Other Income (Expenses), Net
 
Other income for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was $629,564, which represents a 1,352.04% increase from expense of $(50,283) for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The increase was due to a $0.8 million foreign exchange gain of a $13 million 6 month time bank deposit in EURO.

Income Tax

The Company incurred income tax expense of $542,266, for the three months ended March 31, 2011, a decrease of $20,681, or 3.67%, as compared to income tax expense of $562,947 for the three months ended March 31, 2010. This was attributed to the decrease in income before income tax. Our effective tax rate was 15.00% and 12.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

The corporation income tax CIT rate applicable to ZBJZ is 25%. However, in accordance with the relevant taxation laws in the PRC, from the time that a company has its first profitable tax year, a foreign investment company is exempt from corporate income tax for its first two years and is then entitled to a 50% tax reduction for the succeeding three years. For ZBJZ the first profitable year for income tax purposes as a foreign investment company was 2006. Therefore, ZBJZ had a favourable income tax rate of 12.5% for the year ended December 31, 2010. ZBJZ was awarded the High-Tech Enterprise Award which entitles ZBJZ a favourable tax rate of 15% for the year ended December 31, 2011. The tax rate for ZBJZ is 15% and 12.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
 
Net Income

The Company’s net income of $3,210,461, for the three months ended March 31, 2011 represented a decrease of $748,585, or 18.91%, as compared to $3,959,046, for the three months ended March 31, 2010. This decrease was due to the increase in the cost of goods sold as compared to the same period of last year.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2011

Liquidity

The Company had a working capital deficit of $42,283,032 at March 31, 2011. This was in part due to the Company’s use of cash to purchase construction in progress. The Company had $131 million of short-term bank loans and notes payable at March 31, 2011.

The Company currently generates its cash flow through operating income, and the Company had net income of $3,210,461 for the three months ended March 31, 2011. As of the date of this report, the Company has not experienced any liquidity problems in settling payables in the normal course of business or repaying the bank loans or notes payable when they become due.

To improve liquidity, the Company may explore new expansion opportunities and funding sources from which the management may consider seeking external funding and financing. At March 31, 2011, the Company has unused credit lines of approximately $30.4 million in total with two banks for short-term borrowings.

In May 2011, the Company obtained a written commitment from the Chief Executive Officer of the Company to provide working capital to the Company, if needed, in the form of notes payable or personal loans. There can be no assurance that the Chief Executive Officer will actually execute the commitment or has the ability to execute such commitment, if and when needed.

In May 2011, the Company signed supplemental agreements with certain contractors to extend approximately $15 million of the $32,274,255 purchase commitment payments over the next three years.

The Company entered into the loan agreements with its primary lenders including but not limited to the Agricultural Bank of China, Bank Austria Beijing and Bank of Rizhao.  As of March 31, 2011, we had an aggregate principal amount of $70,135,985 outstanding under both the long-term and short-term loan agreements, with maturities from April 2011 to July 2013 and interest rates from 3.80% to 9.88% per annum.  The loan agreements contain customary affirmative and negative covenants and are mainly guaranteed by third parties and individual persons or secured by a lien on our restricted cash, raw material inventories, and land use rights.  Historically, all debts due have been paid back by the Company on a timely manner.  All short-term bank loans are revolving loans whose terms (at due date of payment) are extended by the lender.  As of March 31, 2011, we were in material compliance with the terms of our loan agreements.  As such, management expects all unpaid short-term bank loan balances can be extended at the due dates, but reserves the right to negotiate with other banks on favorable terms.  Depending on the capital needs, the Company evaluates whether to apply for additional long-term bank loans when they are paid back. The Company currently has sufficient lines of credits in the amount of $30.4 million with the banks for short-term borrowings.
 
We have entered into the notes payable agreements with banks to the amount of $82,768,908 for bank acceptance notes.  As of March 31, 2011, we had an aggregate principal amount of $85,845,124 outstanding under the notes payable agreements, with maturities from April 2011 to September 2011 and are charged 0.05% of the principal for a total of $26,251  and interest expense of $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2011. 
 
These bank notes are secured by the Company’s restricted cash of $60,862,498. Restricted cash represents time deposits reserved for settlement of the bank acceptance notes payable. The cash is held in the custody of the bank issuing the notes payable and is restricted as to withdrawal or use, and is currently earning interest. The restricted cash increased approximately $6.5 million in line with the increase of the notes payable during the three months ended March 31, 2011.
 
The bank acceptance notes payable agreements contain customary affirmative and negative covenants and are mainly guaranteed by the Company’s restricted cash and third parties.  Historically, all notes payable debts due have been paid back by the Company on a timely manner.  All notes payable are whose terms (at due date of payment) are extended by the lender.  As of March 31, 2011, we were in material compliance with the terms of our notes payable agreements.  As such, management expects all unpaid notes payable balances can be extended at the due date, but reserves the right to negotiate with other third parties on favorable terms.

The Company is not subject to any significant financial covenants and believes that the Company will meet all debt covenants currently in place.

Restrictions on receipt of dividends from and transfer of funds to, our PRC operating subsidiaries may be imposed.

Gold Champ is incorporated in Hong Kong and is the holding company of our operating subsidiary. At present, Zibo Costar Information Consulting is the only operating subsidiary. The ability of Zibo Costar Information Consulting and any future subsidiaries which are WOFEs to declare dividends and other payments to Gold Champ may be restricted by factors that include changes in applicable foreign exchange and other laws and regulations in the PRC and in Hong Kong.

In particular, under PRC law, profit available for distribution from the PRC operating subsidiaries is determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the PRC. This calculation may differ from the one performed in accordance with US GAAP. As a result of the potential difference in profit calculation, there is a risk that the PRC subsidiaries may not have sufficient profit to distribute so as to allow distributions to the stockholders in the future. In addition, distributions by our subsidiaries other than as dividends may be subject to governmental approval and taxation.

Any transfer of funds to our PRC subsidiaries, either as a shareholder loan or as an increase in registered capital, is subject to registration or approval of certain PRC governmental authorities, including the relevant administration of foreign exchange and/or the relevant examining and approval authority. Further, it is not permitted under PRC law for our PRC subsidiaries to lend money to each other/another member. Therefore, it is difficult to change our capital expenditure plans once the relevant funds have been remitted to our PRC subsidiaries. These limitations on the free flow of funds between our companies and our PRC subsidiaries could restrict our ability to act in response to changing market conditions and to reallocate funds from one PRC subsidiary to another in a timely manner.

Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2011, our total assets were $268,752,040 and our total liabilities were $184,371,137. Our debt to asset ratio, calculated as total liabilities (including short-term debt and payables) over total assets, was 0.6860. Our operating revenue was $18,417,150 reflecting a total asset turnover of 0.0685.
 
The Company currently generates its cash flow through operations and the Company believes that its cash flow generated from operations will be sufficient to sustain operations for the next twelve months.

Capital Expenditures

In 2010 and 2009, the Company entered certain agreements for purchases of certain licensed technology and equipment to be used in the butanediol project with a contract amount of $74,213,954.  As of March 31, 2011, the Company made payments of $39,015,552, for the butanediol project. The Company is required to pay the remaining purchase price of $32,274,255 and $2,924,148 in the next first year and second year, respectively. The amount paid is recorded in construction in progress. The Company used its working capital and borrowed money from a local bank to fund the project. The Company estimates completion of the project in 2012.

In May 2011, the Company signed supplemental agreements with certain contractors to extend approximately $15 million of the $32,274,255 purchase commitment payments over the next three years.  These supplemental agreements require approximately $8.2 million and $6.7 million to be paid in the second year and third year, respectively.

Our assets are predominately located inside the PRC.  Under the laws governing VIEs in the PRC, dividend distribution and liquidation are allowed but subject to special procedures under the relevant laws and rules.  Any dividend payment will be subject to the decision of the board of directors and subject to foreign exchange rules governing such repatriation.  Any liquidation is subject to both the relevant government agency’s approval and supervision as well the foreign exchange control.  Certain payments from our PRC subsidiary to us may be subject to PRC taxes, such as withholding income tax.  In addition regulations in the PRC currently permit payment of dividends of a PRC company only out of accumulated distributable after-tax profits as determined in accordance with its articles of association and the accounting standards and regulations of China.  Our PRC subsidiary is required to set aside at least 10% of its after-tax profit based on PRC accounting standards every year to a statutory surplus reserve fund until the aggregate amount of such reserve fund reaches 50% of the registered capital of each subsidiary.  We do not have any present plan to pay any cash dividends on our ordinary shares in the foreseeable future.  This generates additional risk for our investors in case of a dividend payment or liquidation.

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities was approximately $5.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011, which was primarily attributable to our net income of $3.2 million adjusted by a non-cash depreciation and amortization of $2.1 million, offset by increases in inventories of $1.2 million, lease income receivable of $1.8 million and customer deposits of $3.2 million, decreases in prepayments of goods of $2.6 million, accounts payable of $1.3 million and other payables and accrued liabilities of $1.6 million.

1) An increase of $3.2 million in customer deposits
The increase was due to two new customers’ prepayment of  $3 million to purchase raw materials from the Company.

2) A decrease of $2.6 million in prepayment of goods
The decrease was due to the raw materials received in the current period. $6.5 million of the prepayments for goods at March 31, 2011 has been utilized subsequent to March 31, 2011.

Interest Rates Risk

Our exposure to interest rate risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to the interest bearing bank loans and interest income generated by the bank deposits. We have not used any derivative financial instruments in our investment portfolio or for cash management purposes. Interest-earning instruments carry a degree of interest rate risk. We have not been exposed, and do not anticipate being exposed to material risks due to changes in interest rates. However, our future interest expense or interest income may expect to be increased of expectations due to changes in interest rates in the PRC.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
 
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining a system of disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e)) under the Exchange Act) that is designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time specified in the Commission's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer's management, including its principal executive officer or officers and principal financial officer or officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report were effective such that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure. A controls system cannot provide absolute assurance, however, that the objectives of the controls system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.
 
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

During the most recent quarter ended March 31, 2011, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) ) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
 
   
PART II—OTHER INFORMATION
 
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

We are not a party to any pending legal proceeding, nor is our property the subject of a pending legal proceeding, that is not in the ordinary course of business or otherwise material to the financial condition of our business. None of our directors, officers or affiliates is involved in a proceeding adverse to our business or has a material interest adverse to our business.
