NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
1. ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS
Silvan Industries, Inc. (formerly known as Exotacar, Inc., Phoenix Energy Resource Corporation (PNXE) and China Forestry Industry Group, Inc.) ( the Company, we, us, our or CNFI) was incorporated on June 3, 2005 in the State of Nevada. On June 25, 2008, the Company changed its business focus from the development of online exotic car sales and entered into the oil and natural gas industry towards identifying and pursuing options regarding the development of energy resources, and changed its name from Exotacar, Inc. to Phoenix Energy Resource Corporation. From June 25, 2008 through to the date of the reverse acquisition, the Company was a designated shell company with minimal operations. On January 7, 2011, the Company changed its name from Phoenix Energy Resource Corporation to China Forestry Industry Group, Inc. to more accurately reflect the new business operations. On October 3, 2011, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment to the Articles of Incorporation of the Company with the Nevada secretary of State to change its name from China Forestry Industry Group, Inc. to Silvan Industries, Inc.
On November 1, 2010, the Company completed a reverse acquisition transaction pursuant to a share exchange agreement among the Company, China Bingwu Forestry Group Limited (CBF) and CBFs sole stockholder, Ms. RenPing Tu, whereby the Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of CBF in exchange for 20,500,000 shares of the Companys stock, which constituted 68.33% of the Companys issued and outstanding capital stock on a fully-diluted basis as of and immediately after the consummation of the reverse acquisition. As a result of the acquisition of CBF, the Company now owns all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of CBF, which in turn owns Qianxinan Aosen Forestry Co., Limited (QAF) and Qianxinan Silvan Touch Flooring Co., Limited (QSTF). For accounting purposes, the share exchange transaction with CBF was treated as a reverse acquisition and recapitalization of CNFI, with CBF as the acquirer and CNFI as the acquired party. Upon completion of the exchange, CBF, QAF and QSTF became wholly owned subsidiaries of CNFI.
China Bingwu Forestry Group Limited (CBF) was incorporated under the Companies laws of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the Peoples Republic of China on April 9, 2010. It was principally established to serve as an investment holding company and its operations are carried out in Hong Kong.
On May 18, 2010, CBF entered into an Equity Ownership Transfer Agreement (the Transfer Agreement) with the existing stockholders of QAF, namely Mr. YuLu Bai, to acquire 100% equity interest of QAF for $2,488,471. This business combination was accounted for as entities under common control because the majority shareholders of CBF and QAF are the same people.

Revenue recognition
The Companys revenue recognition policies are in compliance with ASC 605 Revenue Recognition. Sales revenue is recognized when all of the following have occurred: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, (iii) the price is fixed or determinable, and (iv) the ability to collect is reasonably assured. These criteria are generally satisfied at the time of shipment when risk of loss and title passes to the customer, including the distributor and the end user. No return allowance is made as products returns are insignificant based on historical experience.
The Company recognizes revenue upon shipment. Sales revenue represents the invoiced value of goods, net of a value-added tax (VAT). All of the Companys products that are sold in the PRC are subject to a Chinese value-added tax at a rate of 17% of the gross sales price or at a rate approved by the Chinese local government. This VAT liability may be offset by the VAT paid by the Company on raw materials and other materials included in the cost of producing their finished product.
Shipping and handling
Shipping and handling costs are included in cost of revenue and selling expenses which totaled $1,553 and $25,216 for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Shipping and handling costs amounted to $29,869 and $88,355 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
Advertising
Advertising costs are included in selling expenses which totaled $50,635 and $6,237 for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Advertising costs amounted to $155,105 and $60,673 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
Government grants
Government grants may represent local authority grants to the company for industry development and the revenue is recognized on cash basis when the local authority approves the grant to the Company. Government grant income may also consist of certain other reimbursements from the government.

Foreign currency translation differences are included as a component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Stockholders Equity.
The exchange rates used to translate amounts in RMB into USD for the purposes of preparing the financial statements were as follows:
9/30/2011 | 9/30/2010 | |||||
Period end RMB : USD exchange rate | 6.39 | 6.68 | ||||

Credit risk
The Company may be exposed to credit risk from its cash at bank. An allowance has been considered for estimated irrecoverable amounts determined by reference to past default experience and the current economic environment. No allowance is considered necessary for the period.
Accounts receivable
The Company maintains reserves for potential credit losses on accounts receivable. Management reviews the composition of accounts receivable and analyzes historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns to evaluate the adequacy of these reserves. Reserves are recorded primarily on a specific identification basis.
The standard credit period for most of the Companys clients is three months. Management evaluates the collectability of the receivables at least quarterly. The estimated average collection period was 90 days as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010. Allowance for doubtful accounts as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 are $0 and $27,252, respectively.
Inventory
Inventory is valued at the lower of cost (determined on a weighted average method) and net realizable value.
Costs incurred in bringing each product to its location and conditions are accounted for as follows:
Raw materials purchase cost on a weighted average basis;
Manufactured finished goods and work-in-progress cost of direct materials and labor and a portion of manufacturing overhead based on normal operating capacity but excluding borrowing costs; and
Retail and wholesale merchandise finished goods purchase cost on a weighted average basis.

Property and equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses.
The Company changed the estimated maximum useful life of the machinery and equipment from 30 years to 15 years and that of furniture and fixtures from 30 years to 5 years. The change in estimate is accounted for prospectively beginning the quarter ended September 31, 2011.
Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets.
Assets Classifications | Estimated Useful Lives |
Buildings | 30 years |
Machinery and equipment | 3 to 15 years |
Motor vehicles | 5 to 10 years |
Office equipment | 3 to 10 years |
Furniture and fixtures | 4 to 5 years |
An item of property and equipment is removed from the accounts upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on disposal of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the item) is included in the consolidated statements of income in the period the item is disposed. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred, whereas major betterments are capitalized as additions to property and equipment. The Company reviews its property and equipment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of certain assets might not be recoverable. In these instances, the Company recognizes an impairment loss when it is probable that the estimated cash flows are less than the carrying value of the asset. To date, no such impairment losses have been recorded.

Construction in progress
Construction in progress represents the direct cost of construction and cost of plant and machinery installed as well as acquisition cost and design fees incurred. Capitalization of these costs ceases and the construction in progress is transferred to property and equipment when substantially all the activities necessary to prepare the assets for their intended use are completed. No depreciation is provided until construction in progress is completed and the asset is ready for its intended use.
Interest is capitalized as part of the historical cost during the construction period for qualified assets. Interest is capitalized until the asset is ready for service. Capitalized interest is determined based upon the Companys weighted-average borrowing cost on debt for the average amount of qualifying costs incurred. Once an asset subject to interest capitalization is completed and placed in service, the associated capitalized interest is expensed through depreciation or impairment, along with other capitalized costs related to that asset. Interest that is qualified for capitalization is insignificant for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, as such, no capitalized interest was recorded for the aforementioned periods.
Intangible assets
Intangible assets consist of land use rights which represent acquisition of land use rights of agriculture land from farmers and are amortized on the straight line basis over their respective lease periods. The lease period of agriculture land ranges from 30 years to 60 years.
Impairment of long lived assets and intangible assets
In accordance with ASC 360, Property, Plant and Equipment, long-lived assets to be held and used are analyzed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the related carrying amounts may not be recoverable. The Company reviews the carrying amount of its long-lived assets, including intangibles, for impairment, each reporting period. An asset is considered impaired when estimated future cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the asset. In the event the carrying amount of such asset is considered not recoverable, the asset is adjusted to its fair value. Fair value is generally determined based on discounted future cash flow. As of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company determined no impairment charges were necessary.

Income taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under the provisions of ASC 740 "Accounting for Income Taxes". Under ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect in the years in which the differences are expected to reverse.
The provision for income tax is based on the results for the year as adjusted for items, which are non-assessable or disallowed. It is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date. Deferred tax is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method in respect of temporary differences arising from differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax basis used in the computation of assessable tax profit. In principle, deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences, and deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilized.
Deferred income taxes are calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realized or the liability is settled. Deferred tax is charged or credited in the income statement, except when it related to items credited or charged directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is also dealt with in equity. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the Company intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.
ASC 740 also prescribes a more-likely-than-not threshold for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken, or expected to be taken, in a tax return. ASC 740 also provides guidance related to, among other things, classification, accounting for interest and penalties associated with tax positions, and disclosure requirements. Any interest and penalties accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits will be recorded in tax expense.

Trade and other payables
Trade payables and other payables are carried at cost and represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Company prior to the end of the period that are unpaid and arise when the Company becomes obliged to make future payments in respect of the purchase of these goods and services. Trade payables are non-interest bearing and are normally settled on 7 to 60 day terms.
Bills receivable and Bills payable
The Company utilizes bankers acceptances in the form of bills receivable and bills payable. The Company accepts customer payment for the Companys products by bills receivable. Bills receivable represent short-term notes receivable issued either by the customer or by the customer and an accepting bank that entitles the Company to receive the full face amount from the customer or the accepting bank at maturity, which is generally six months from the date of issuance.
Bills payable represent bills issued by an accepting bank in favor of the Companys suppliers. The Companys suppliers receive payments from the accepting bank directly upon maturity of the bills, and the Company is obliged to repay the face value of the bills to the accepting bank. These bills are interest free and generally mature six months from the date of issuance. To secure the banks undertakings, the Company is required to maintain deposits with such banks amounts equal to 50% to 100% of the bills amounts issued, such deposits are presentedas restricted cash as of September 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010. Upon maturity of the bills payable, the banks deduct the bills payable amount from the restricted cash account.
Product warranties
Substantially all of the Companys products are covered by a standard warranty of 1 year for products. In the event of a failure of products covered by this warranty, the Company must repair or replace the products or, if those remedies are insufficient, and at the discretion of the Company, provide a refund. The Company provides warranty reserve for product warranties to reflect estimated material and labor costs of maintenance for potential or actual product issues but for which the Company expects to incur an obligation. Based on historically insignificant amount of warranty expense, management determined that no product warranty reserve was necessary as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010.

PRC state managed retirement benefit programs are defined contribution plans and the payments to the plans are charged as expenses when employees have rendered service entitling them to the contribution.
Accumulated other comprehensive income
ASC Topic 220 Comprehensive Income establishes standards for reporting and displaying comprehensive income and its components in financial statements. Comprehensive income is defined as the change in stockholders equity of a business enterprise during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. The comprehensive income for all periods presented includes both the reported net income and net change in cumulative translation adjustments.
Earnings per share (EPS)
Earnings per share is calculated in accordance with ASC 260-10 Earnings per Share, which requires the Company to calculate net income (loss) per share based on basic and diluted net income (loss) per share, as defined. Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock.
Statutory Surplus Reserve
In accordance with the relevant laws and regulations of the PRC and the articles of associations of the Company, CNFIs subsidiaries in the PRC are required to allocate 10% of their net income reported in the PRC statutory accounts, after offsetting any prior years losses, to the statutory surplus reserve, on an annual basis.

The statutory surplus reserves can be used to offset prior years losses, if any, and may be converted into registered capital, provided that the remaining balances of the reserve after such conversion is not less than 25% of registered capital. The statutory surplus reserve is non-distributable.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRS. The amendments change the wording used to describe the requirements in U.S. GAAP for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about the fair value measurements. The amendments include the following:
1. | Those that clarify the Boards intent about the application of existing fair value measurement and disclosure requirements. |
|
2. | Those that change a particular principle or requirement for measuring fair value or for disclosing information about fair value measurements. |
The amendments in this Update are to be applied prospectively. For public entities, the amendments are effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. For nonpublic entities, the amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. Early application by public entities is not permitted. Nonpublic entities may apply the amendments in this Update early, but no earlier than for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2011.
The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, of ASU No. 2011-04 on the Companys financial position and results of operations.
In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income.

In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-08, Intangibles Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment. The objective of this Update is to simplify how entities, both public and nonpublic, test goodwill for impairment. The amendments in the Update permit an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis of determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test described in Topic 350. The more-likely-than-not threshold is defined as having a likelihood of more than 50 percent. The amendments are effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is permitted, including for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed as of a date before September 15, 2011, if an entitys financial statements for the most recent annual or interim period have not yet been issued or, for nonpublic entities, have not yet been made available for issuance.

Overview of Our Business
We produce and sell floor materials and related products to residential and commercial customers in China. Our product lines include laminate flooring and fiber floor boards that are manufactured in a variety of colors, dimensions and designs.
2
The primary raw material used in our products is wood, which we currently procure from third party suppliers. We expect that commencing in late 2012, we will be able to procure approximately 20% of our wood from a 2,250 hectares (approximately, 22.5 km2) of fir forest in Guizhou Province.
Our manufacturing facility in Qianxinan, Guizhou Province has an annual production capacity of six million square meters of laminate flooring and 75,000 cubic meters of industrial fiber boards. We are constructing two new manufacturing facilities next to our current facility to expand our laminate flooring production line and industrial fiber board production line. We expect that this expansion will increase our overall capacity to 200,000 cubic meters of fiber boards and 12 million square meters of laminate floor.
We market and sell our products through five branch offices and 504 contracted flooring specialty retail stores, concentrated mostly in southwestern China. We also sell some of our products through eight retail stores which we refer to as flagship stores because they are generally larger and better equipped with samples, promotional material and product inventory, as compared to regular retail stores, and as a result, they better promote our image and the quality of our products. We are also seeking commercial arrangements for the sale of our products through home supply stores, such as our recent agreement to sell our products at Red Star Macalline Furniture Malls Guiyang store. Red Star Macalline Furniture Mall is a large home products supply store chain in China, similar to Home Depot and Lowes in the U.S., with over 30 malls and stores across China. We believe that home supply stores are an important channel for the sale of building/home renovation materials and we plan to increase our efforts to work with more home supply stores in the future.
In March 2011, we established Guiyang Silvan Touch in order to expand our sales channels. Guiyang Silvan Touchs principal activity is the wholesaling of wood flooring, furniture and decorations.
Recent Developments
- On October 3, 2011, we filed a Certificate of Amendment to our
Articles of Incorporation with the Nevada Secretary of State to change the name
of the Company from China Forestry Industry Group, Inc. to Silvan Industries,
Inc. Please see our current report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on October 6,

Revenue. We generate revenue from the sales of our industrial fiber boards, laminate flooring, wooden flooring, and related flooring products. Our revenue increased to $10.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011, from $8.8 million for the same period in 2010, representing a 22.1% increase. The increase in revenue was mainly due to an increase in average unit sales price with stable sales volume across all product categories.
In terms of product lines, sales of our laminate flooring and fiber board products accounted for approximately 62.6% and 37.4% of our revenue, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2011, as compared to approximately 64.5% and 35.5%, respectively, for the same period in 2010. We did not sell any hard wood flooring products in the third quarter because we are still developing this new product market.
The average unit sales price of our laminate flooring products increased slightly by approximately 2.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2011. We sold approximately 1.00 million square meters of laminate flooring products during the three months ended September 30, 2011, as compared to approximately 1.07 million square meters of laminate flooring products for the same period in 2010. We were able to maintain the relatively stable sales volume as last year with the increased average unit sales price mainly due to our continued promotion and market expansion efforts for this product line.
The average sales price of our fiber board products increased approximately 26% in the third quarter of 2011 as compared to the same period last year. A larger portion of our products sold in this quarter was 15mm fiber board which generally has a higher sales price than our 12mm fiber board which was the major products sold in the same quarter last year. Sales volume remained fairly stable. We sold approximately 0.6 million pieces of fiber boards during the three months ended September 30, 2011 as compared to approximately 0.59 million pieces of fiber boards for the comparative period in 2010.
Cost of revenue. Our cost of revenue is primarily comprised of the costs of our raw materials, labor and overhead. Our cost of revenue increased $1.5 million, or 26%, to $7.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011, from $5.8 million for the same period in 2010. The cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue increased from 67% for the three months ended September 30, 2010 to 69% for the three months ended September 30, 2011. Such increase was primarily due to the significant increase in cost of raw materials primarily including wood, chemical boards and papers. Unit cost for these raw materials has increased 19 to 20% compared to the same period in 2010. The rise in raw material cost is due to macro inflationary environment in China, which in turn resulted in the increase in unit cost and until selling price of our products.

Gross profit and gross margin. Our gross profit is equal to the difference between our revenue and our cost of revenue. Our gross profit increased $0.5 million, or 15%, to $3.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011, from $2.9 million for the same period in 2010. Gross profit as a percentage of net revenue (gross margin) was 31% and 33% for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The decrease in the gross margin was primarily driven by the decreased gross margin of our laminate flooring products. The respective gross margins for our laminate flooring and fiber board products were 25% and 25% for the three months ended September 30, 2011, as compared to 32% and 21% for the same period in 2010. The drop in the gross margin of our laminate flooring product line was mainly attributable to a greater percentage increase in average cost than the percentage increase in average sales price.
Selling expenses. Our selling expenses are comprised primarily of sales commissions, the cost of advertising and promotional materials, salaries and fringe benefits of sales personnel, travel expense, consulting fees and other sales related costs. Our selling expenses increased by $241,633, or 868%, to $269,467 for the three months ended September 30, 2011, from $27,834 for the same period in 2010. The increase was primarily a result of the expansion of our sales network leading to increased salary, welfare expenses and advertisement and exhibition expenses. Our salary expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2011 amounted to $144,315, compared to $12,171 for the same period in 2010. Our welfare expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2011 amounted to $36,100, compared to $1,447 for the same period in 2010. Our advertisement and exhibition expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2011 amounted to $49,806, compared to $623 for the same period in 2010. Due to continued efforts to promote our brand recognition and marketing in the PRC, our travel and consultation expenses also increased and contributed to the increase of selling and marketing expenses. Our travel expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2011 amounted to $22,182, compared to $10,137 for the same period in 2010. Our consultation expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2011 amounted to $9,093, compared to $721 for the same period in 2010.
General and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses consist primarily of compensation and benefits to our management, finance and administrative staff, professional advisor fees, audit fees and other expenses incurred in connection with general operations. Our general and administrative expenses increased $374,716, or 116%, to $697,341 for the three months ended September 30, 2011, from $322,625 for the same period in 2010. This increase was mainly due to the hiring of additional staff to manage our expanding business, particularly in our finance department, to assist with the increased administrative duties associated with being a public company. This also led to increases of related welfare expenses.
Other income (expense). We had $433,903 in other expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2011, as compared to other income of $353,155 for the same period in 2010. Compared to same period in 2010, we incurred more expenses in this quarter mainly because of a higher interest expense of $290,926 resulting from increased bank borrowings during the three months ended September 30, 2011. We had approximately $19.6 million bank loans as of September 30, 2011 as compared to $4.5 million as of September 30, 2010. In addition, a majority of the 2010 other income was attributable to a $0.53 million value added tax refund. According to a tax refund approval notice issued by the Tax Administration of the Ministry of Finance of the PRC, certain items, including our wood flooring and wooden fiber sheets are qualified for the refund of VAT in 2009 and 2010. No such tax refund approval notice was issued for 2011. During the three months ended September 30, 2011, we received $31,184 in government grant income for use in research and development of applied technology as compared to $0 for the same period in 2010.
Income taxes. Our income taxes decreased by $0.09 million, or 11%, to $0.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011, from $0.8 million for the same period in 2010. The decrease was due to the decrease in our taxable income.
Net income. For the three months ended September 30, 2011, we generated a net income of $1.3 million, a decrease of $0.8 million, or 40.7%, from $2.1 million for the same period in 2010, as a result of the cumulative effect of the foregoing factors.

Revenue. Our revenue increased to $29.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, from $25.7 million for the same period in 2010, representing a 15% increase. The increase in revenue was mainly due to higher sales volume in the first quarter of 2011 after the expansion of our sales and distribution network, coupled with increase in unit sales price of both our laminate flooring and fiber boards. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, we sold approximately 2.9 million square meters of laminate flooring products and approximately 1.6 million pieces of fiber boards, as compared to approximately 1.6 million square meters of laminate flooring products and approximately 2.2 million pieces of fiber boards for the same period in 2010. In addition, we started selling hard wood flooring products in the first quarter of 2011 and sold approximately 0.05 million square meters of hard wood flooring products in the nine months ended September 30, 2011. Our respective sales of laminate flooring products, fiber board products and hard wood flooring products accounted for approximately 64.0%, 35.9% and 0.1% of our revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, as compared to 46.1%, 53.9% and 0% for the same period in 2010.
Cost of revenue. Our cost of revenue increased $2.3 million, or 13%, to $19.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, from $17.1 million for the same period in 2010. The increase was generally in line with the increase in sales volume. Cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue remain relatively consistent as we had a slight decrease from 66% for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 to 65% for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 primarily attributable to our fiber board product line. As a percentage of revenue, cost of revenue for our fiber board product line was 74% for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, as compared to 78% for the same period in 2010. The decrease was due to the fact that the percentage increase in the unit selling price of fiber boards outpaced the percentage increase in the raw material cost. The unit cost of major raw materials had a percentage increase between 2% to 29% while the unit selling price of 12mm and 15mm fiber boards increased by 7% and 25%, respectively. To minimize the impact of continuing rise in raw material cost, we hope that through our research and development efforts, we can improve our manufacturing technology of this product line which we expect to result in lower consumption of raw materials.
Gross profit and gross margin. Our gross profit increased $1.6 million, or 19%, to $10.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, from $8.6 million for the same period in 2010. Such increase in overall gross profit was mainly due to an approximately 27% increase in gross profit generated from sales of fiber boards which more than offset an approximately 6% decrease of gross profit from sales of laminate flooring products. Gross profit as a percentage of net revenue (gross margin) was 35% and 34% for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The slight increase in gross margin was primarily driven by increased gross margin of fiber board products. Gross margins for our laminate flooring products and fiber board products were 26% and 26%, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, as compared to 34% and 22%, respectively, for the same period in 2010. The gross margin of new hard wood flooring products was 24.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The improved gross margin of fiber board product line was due to the decrease in cost of revenue as noted above. The drop in gross margin of laminate flooring products was mainly attributable to a combined effect of decrease in their unit sales price and increase in unit cost. The average sales price of laminate flooring products per square meter dropped approximately 10% from the nine months ended September 30, 2010 as a result of intense competition in the market for similar products.

Selling expenses. Our selling expenses increased significantly by $0.8 million, or 580%, to $1.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, from $0.1 million for the same period in 2010. The increase was primarily a result of the expansion of our sales network leading to increased salary, welfare expenses and advertisement and exhibition expenses. Our salary expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 amounted to $0.7 million, compared to $0.3 million for the same period in 2010. Our welfare expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 amounted to $0.1 million, compared to $5,859 for the same period in 2010. Our advertisement and exhibition expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 amounted to $0.2 million, compared to $55,045 for the same period in 2010. Due to continued efforts to promote our brand and marketing in the PRC, we also incurred more travel and consultation expenses. Our travel expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 amounted to $72,292, compared to $17,974 for the same period in 2010. Our consultation expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 amounted to $96,325, compared to $721 for the same period in 2010.
General and administrative expenses. Our general and administrative expenses increased $0.5, million or 51%, to $1.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, from $1.1 million for the same period in 2010. This increase was mainly due to the hiring of additional staff to manage our expanding business, particularly in our finance department, to assist with the increased administrative duties associated with being a public company. This also led to increases of related welfare expenses.
Other income (expense). We had $1.0 million in net other expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, as compared to net other income of $1.8 million for the same period in 2010. The $2.8 million decrease in other income (expense) was primarily due to value added tax refund of $1.9 million received in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 coupled with higher interest expense of $1.1 million resulting from increased bank borrowings during the nine months ended September 30, 2011, as compared to $0.2 million interest expense for the comparative period in 2010.
Income taxes. Our income taxes decreased by $0.1 million, or 6%, to $1.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, from $2.0 million for the same period in 2010. The decrease was due to the decrease in our taxable income.
Net income. For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, we generated a net income of $4.7 million, a decrease of $2.4 million, or 34%, from $7.2 million for the same period in 2010, as a result of the cumulative effect of the foregoing factors.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of September 30, 2011, we had cash and cash equivalents of $72,045. The following table summarizes the key cash flow metrics from our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010.

Operating Activities
Net cash used in operating activities was $3.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, as compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $2.7 million for the same period in 2010. The decrease in net cash from operating activities was primarily due to a decrease of $2.4 million in net income, an approximately $5.6 million cash outflow in inventory purchases which was primarily offset with a corresponding increase in bills payable which are utilized to pay our suppliers for raw material purchases, a $7.3 million outflow in deposits and prepaid expenses primarily for deposits paid to suppliers of raw materials and goods supplies. In addition, as a result of increase in our bills payable, our cash outflow for the restricted cash balance, which serves as collaterals for bills payable, increased by $2.6 million. The significant increase in inventory during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was attributable to increased inventory and raw materials purchases in anticipation of the development of our sales network in some selected markets in China, as evidenced by our $12.9 million inventory balance as of September 30, 2011 and our $9.5 million sales order backlog.
7
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was $8.3 million, as compared to $6.2 million for the same period in 2010. The net cash used in investing activities was primarily due to our purchase of land use rights for approximately $2.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2011. In addition, we paid approximately $5.8 million as prepayment for properties under construction for the expansion of our facilities.
Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was $11.8 million, as compared to $3.4 million for the same period in 2010. The increase in net cash provided by financing activities was primarily due to increased bank borrowings of $17.7 million to fund our expansion. Such increase was offset by repayment of two short term bank loans totaled $3.1 million that matured in June and July 2011. In addition, we paid off $2.9 million payable to Mr. Yulu Bai for the purchase cost of the forestry land use right that Mr. Bai had paid on behalf of the Company.
Loan Commitments

We are not aware of any material trend, event or capital commitment, which would potentially adversely affect liquidity. In the event a material trend develops, we believe that our cash on hand and cash flow from operations will meet part of our present cash needs and we will require additional cash resources, including loans, to meet our expected capital expenditure and working capital for the next 12 months. In the future we may also require additional cash resources due to changed business conditions or acquisitions that we may decide to pursue. In addition, because substantially all of our revenues are generated from our indirect PRC subsidiaries, Aosen Forestry and Silvan Flooring, the ability of our PRC subsidiaries to make dividends and other payments to us is subject to the PRC dividend restrictions. Current PRC law permits payments of dividend by our PRC subsidiaries only out of their accumulated after-tax profits, if any, determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards and regulations. Our PRC subsidiaries are also required under PRC laws and regulations to allocate at least 10% of their annual after-tax profits determined in accordance with PRC GAAP to a statutory general reserve fund until the amounts in said fund reaches 50% of their registered capital. Allocations to the statutory reserve fund can only be used for specific purposes and are not transferable to us in the form of loans, advances or cash dividends. As we disclosed above, our PRC subsidiaries did not allocate their after-tax profits to the statutory general reserve fund pursuant to the PRC regulations. As of September 30, 2011, we had allocated an aggregate of RMB10,380,366 (approximately $1.6 million) to our fund.
If our own financial resources are insufficient to satisfy our capital requirements, we may seek to sell additional equity or debt securities or obtain additional credit facilities. The sale of additional equity securities could result in dilution to our stockholders. The incurrence of indebtedness would result in increased debt service obligations and could require us to agree to operating and financial covenants that would restrict our operations. Financing may not be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. Any failure by us to raise additional funds on terms favorable to us, or at all, could limit our ability to expand our business operations and could harm our overall business prospects.

Obligations Under Material Contracts
In addition to the loan obligations disclosed above, we have the following material contractual obligations:

-
As of September 30, 2011, we have operating lease commitments for four store leases and two warehouse leases, the leases expire through year 2013. Our future minimum lease payments are as follow: $19,988 for the remainder of 2011, $81,060 for 2012, $74,567 for 2013 and $10,380 for 2014.
Seasonality
Our operating results and operating cash flows historically have not been subject to seasonal variations. This pattern may change, however, as a result of new market opportunities or new product introduction.
Inflation
Inflation and changing prices have not had a material effect on our business, and we do not expect that inflation or changing prices will materially affect our business in the foreseeable future. However, our management will closely monitor price changes in the Chinese economy and our industry and continually maintain effective cost controls in 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, sales or expenses, results of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures, or capital resources that are material to an investment in our securities.
Critical Accounting Policies
Critical accounting policies are those we believe are most important to portraying our financial conditions and results of operations and also require the greatest amount of subjective or complex judgments by management. Judgments and uncertainties regarding the application of these policies may result in materially different amounts being reported under various conditions or using different assumptions. There have been no material changes to the critical accounting policies previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010.

Not Applicable.
ITEM 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES. |
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Disclosure controls and procedures refer to controls and other procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
As required by Rule 13a-15(e), our management has carried out an evaluation, with the participation and under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Yulu Bai, and Chief Financial Officer, Mr. Jiyong He, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as of September 30, 2011. Based upon, and as of the date of this evaluation, Messrs. Bai and He, determined that, because of the material weaknesses described in Item 9A Controls and Procedures of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, which we are still in the process of remediating as of September 30, 2011, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective. Investors are directed to Item 9A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 for the description of these weaknesses.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We regularly review our system of internal control over financial reporting and make changes to our processes and systems to improve controls and increase efficiency, while ensuring that we maintain an effective internal control environment. Changes may include such activities as implementing new, more efficient systems, consolidating activities, and migrating processes.
During its evaluation of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010, management concluded that we need to increase our qualified accounting personnel and enhance the supervision, monitoring and reviewing of financial statements preparation processes. We have already taken measures to remediate these material weaknesses by seeking an additional financial reporting and accounting staff member. We are currently seeking additional seasoned finance and accounting professionals and experienced financial reporting personnel with relevant knowledge in the preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP and financial reporting disclosure requirements under SEC rules to strengthen the accounting department. In addition, we are actively seeking a new CFO who is knowledgeable and experienced in US GAAP and SEC reporting matters. We have been interviewing potential candidates to seek for these qualified accounting staff and CFO.
In the meantime, we have hired AuditPrep Limited to assist with the preparation of US GAAP financial statements and assisting with the preparation of periodic reports under the Exchange Act. AuditPrep Limiteds professionals consist of managers and partners that are either AICPA or trained and experienced in US GAAP and SEC reporting matters
Other than the foregoing changes, there were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the third quarter of 2011 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
