Mr. Xiong Luo, Chief Executive Officer of Sino Green Land, commented, “We had record revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2011.  Our unique business model for the wholesale fruit distribution operations continues to deliver solid results.  During the second quarter, we also leased another 1,100 acres of apple plantation from the cooperative farming group.  This additional land should help grow our top and bottom lines next year.”

Mr. Luo continued, “The construction of our Metro Green distribution center is nearly complete and we are entering the planning stage for its operations.  We believe the Metro Green distribution center should help not only increase the availability of healthy foods in China but also establish a reputable channel for green, organic and imported food products.”

Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2011 increased 26.4% to $80.0 million, as compared to $63.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. This increase was mainly due to higher selling price of apples, which accounted for more than 86% of sales in the June 2011 period.  Our gross profit increased approximately $1.3 million to approximately $8.0 million in the June 2011 period from approximately $6.8 million in the June 2010 period.  Gross margin was 10.0% and 10.7% for the June 2011 and June 2010 periods, respectively.  The prices at which we purchased and sold apples increased proportionally, which enabled us to have relatively comparable gross margins for the June 2011 and 2010 periods. Our gross margin was in the June 2011 period was also affected by our incentive program designed to increase our business from larger wholesalers.  Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $3.1 million, or $0.02 per share (basic and diluted), as compared with $3.5 million, or $0.03 per share (basic and diluted) for the comparable period of 2010.

As of June 30, 2011, the company had cash and cash equivalents of $0.8 million, no long-term debt and shareholders’ equity of $62.7 million.

Sales increased approximately $9.0 million, or 30.3%, to approximately $38.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2011 from approximately $29.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2010.  Sales of our Fuji apples increased 26.9% in the three months ended June30, 2011 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2010.   Our gross profit increased 15.0%, from $3.1 million in the three months ended June 30, 2010 to $3.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2011. Gross margins were 9.3% and 10.5% for the quarters ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The decrease was mainly due to reduced revenue from an incentive program initiated in the period to increase sales to larger wholesalers to purchase our fruit.  Our net income was $1.4 million, or $0.01 per share (basic and diluted) for the three months ended June 30, 2011 period, as compared with a net income of $3.9 million, or $0.03 per share (basic and diluted) for the same period of 2010.
