Business Overview

We are a leading producer and distributor of water purifying agents and high-performance aluminate calcium (HAC) powder, the core component of water purifying agents.

Jiangmen Wealth Water, our PRC Operating Company, is solely engaged in the production and sale of water purifying agents, while Guizhou Yufeng and Shanxi Wealth, the subsidiaries of Jiangmen Wealth Water, specialize in the production and sale of HAC powder. The core raw material of our water purifying agent is HAC powder, which is exclusively supplied by Guizhou Yufeng. Guizhou Yufeng manufactures HAC powder using the raw materials of aluminum ore and limestone from its own mines. Although Guizhou Yufeng sells HAC powder to third party customers, it prioritizes sales to Jiangmen Wealth Water over third party customers and seeks to ensure that its supply meets the demand of Jiangmen Wealth Water before products are sold to other customers.

Jiangmen Wealth Water has established its self-owned production facilities in the Jiangmen City of Guangdong Province, China, and has entered into production entrustment agreements with 4 water purifying agent production lines located in Zhaoqing City, Guangdong Province, Yibin City, Sichuan Province, Nanchang City, Jiangxi Province and Hangzhou City, Zhejiang Province (individually, the “Entrusted Production Line,” and collectively, the “Entrusted Production Lines”), that solely produce water purifying agent with our raw materials and pursuant to our production guidance and quality control standards.

Recent Developments

On December 15, 2010, we completed a private placement transaction with a group of accredited investors. Pursuant to the subscription agreement with the investors (the “Subscription Agreement”), we issued to the investors an aggregate of 222,402 units for a purchase price of $6,672,031, or $30.00 per unit (the “Unit”).  Each Unit consists of two preference shares with each preference share convertible into 7.1305357 (subject to customary adjustments for stock splits, combinations, or equity dividends on ordinary shares) ordinary shares (the “Preference Shares”) and a warrant to purchase 7.1305357 ordinary shares (the “Warrants”). The Warrants have a term of five (5) years, bear an exercise price of $3.16 per share (subject to customary adjustments), are exercisable on a net exercise or cashless basis and are exercisable by investors at any time after the closing date.

Following the closing of the private placement, the Company has taken steps to effectuate a 1:1.42610714 reverse stock split of the Company’s issued and outstanding ordinary shares as of the closing of the Share Exchange (the “Reverse Split”).  On February 14, 2011, the Company filed a preliminary proxy Statement on the Schedule 14A in anticipation of a shareholder meeting to be held to vote on the matters including the Reverse Spilt.  We have not filed a definitive proxy statement as of the filing of this prospectus and the Reverse Spilt has not been effectuated. If the Reverse Split is effectuated, after the adjustment for such Reverse Split, each Preference Shares will be convertible into 5 ordinary shares and the holder of each Warrant will be entitled to purchase 5 ordinary shares at an exercise price of $4.50 per share.

Risk Factors

Our ability to successfully operate our business and achieve our goals and strategies is subject to numerous risks as discussed more fully in the section titled “Risk Factors,” beginning on page 3, including for example:

·  
Our limited operating history makes evaluation of our business difficult;
·  
We may encounter raw material supply shortage and price increase, any failure to increase our reserve effectively could adversely affect our operations;
·  
Our future performance is dependent on researching and developing new products, the inability to do so could have an adverse effect on our business;
·  
If we need additional capital to fund our growing operations, we may not be able to obtain sufficient capital and may be forced to limit the scope of our operations;
·  
Certain political and economic considerations relating to the PRC could adversely affect our company;
·  
Inflation in the PRC could negatively affect our profitability and growth;
·  
Our labor costs have increased and are likely to further increase as a result of changes in Chinese labor laws; and
·  
Our ordinary shares have not been listed for trading on the OTC Bulletin Board or on any stock exchange and there can be no assurance that there will be a market developed for our ordinary shares in the future.

Any of the above risks could materially and adversely affect our business, financial position and results of operations. An investment in our securities involves risks. You should read and consider the information set forth in “Risk Factors” and all other information set forth in this prospectus before investing in our securities.

RISK FACTORS

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

Risks Relating to Our Business

OUR LIMITED OPERATING HISTORY MAKES EVALUATION OF OUR BUSINESS DIFFICULT.

We have a limited operating history and have encountered and expect to continue to encounter many of the difficulties and uncertainties often faced by early stage companies. Jiangmen Wealth Water, our PRC Operating Company, was incorporated in 2003. Our limited operating history makes it difficult to evaluate our future prospects, including our ability to develop a wide customer and distribution network for our services, to expand our operations to include additional services and to control raw material costs, all of which are critical to our success. An investor must consider our business and our prospects in light of the risks, uncertainties and difficulties common to early stage companies. We may encounter unanticipated problems, expenses and delays in developing and marketing our services and securing additional blending and storage facilities. We may not be able to successfully address these risks. If we are unable to address these risks, our business may not grow, our stock price may suffer, and we may be unable to stay in business.

WE NEED TO MANAGE GROWTH IN OPERATIONS TO MAXIMIZE OUR POTENTIAL GROWTH AND ACHIEVE OUR EXPECTED REVENUES AND OUR FAILURE TO MANAGE GROWTH WILL CAUSE A DISRUPTION OF OUR OPERATIONS RESULTING IN THE FAILURE TO GENERATE REVENUE AT LEVELS WE EXPECT.

In order to maximize potential growth in our current and potential markets, we believe that we must expand our producing and marketing operations. This expansion will place a significant strain on our management and our operational, accounting, and information systems. We will also need to effectively train, motivate, and manage our employees. Our failure to manage our growth could disrupt our operations and ultimately prevent us from generating the revenues we expect.

KEY EMPLOYEES ARE ESSENTIAL TO GROWING OUR BUSINESS. IN ADDITION WE NEED ADDITIONAL SKILLED MANAGEMENT AND TECHNICAL PERSONNEL AND OTHER EMPLOYEES.

Mr. Mingzhuo Tan, our Chief Executive Officer is essential to our ability to continue to grow our business. He has established relationships within the industries in which we operate. If he was to leave us, our strategy might be hindered, which could limit our ability to increase revenue.  Our future success also depends upon our ability to attract and retain highly qualified personnel. Expansion of our business and its management and operation will require additional managers and employees with industry experience, and the success of the Company will be highly dependent on the Company’s ability to attract and retain skilled management and technical personnel, and other employees. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to attract or retain highly qualified personnel. Competition for skilled personnel in the environmental protection industry is significant. This competition may make it more difficult and expensive to attract, hire and retain qualified managers and employees.
 
OUR FUTURE PERFORMANCE IS DEPENDENT ON RESEARCHING AND DEVELOPING NEW PRODUCTS AND OUR INABILITY TO DO SO COULD HAVE AN ADVERSE EFFECT ON OUR BUSINESS.

Our performance is dependent on our ability to develop and launch new products. Changes in technologies may render our products obsolete and our performance in the future is thus significantly dependent on our ability to develop and launch new products. There can be no assurance that our research and development efforts will be successful or completed within the anticipated timeframe. Moreover, there can be no assurance that any research and development project undertaken by us will result in commercially viable products. Unsuccessful development and release of new products could adversely affect our performance and our ability to compete.

OUR MANUFACTURING TECHNOLOGIES AND MANUFACTURING DESIGNS ARE NOT PROTECTED BY PATENT OR TRADEMARK. ANY UNAUTHORIZED USE COULD CAUSE MATERIAL DAMAGE TO OUR BUSINESS AND LEAVE US VERY LIMITED REMEDIES.

We consider our manufacturing technologies and manufacturing design critical to our business. Because we are not protected by patent or trademark law, if our technologies or designs are utilized by a third party without our permission, we have very limited legal remedies to force such third party to restrain from using the technologies or design, or to compensate us for damages caused, and therefore we cannot guarantee we will recover the damages that could be done to our business or to re-gain the advantage our technologies and designs have afforded us.

WE WILL ENCOUNTER SUBSTANTIAL COMPETITION IN OUR BUSINESS AND ANY FAILURE TO COMPETE EFFECTIVELY COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

Although currently we do not have any significant competitors in the HAC powder and water purifying agent business, more water purifying agents producers are entering the market with economic development and growing public awareness in China on environmental issues. In addition, some multi-national companies have entered or prepared to enter the Chinese water purifying market, such as General Veolia Water Solutions & Technologies. Our Company is facing fierce competition. We anticipate that other companies in the industry will continue to improve their products and introduce new products with competitive price and qualities. This could pose a threat to our current market share. Some of our international competitors have stronger brand names, greater access to capital, longer operating histories, longer or more established relationships with their customers, stronger research and development capabilities and greater marketing and other resources than we do.

Some of our domestic competitors have stronger distribution networks and end-user customer bases, better government relationship and stronger industry-based backgrounds than us. Due to the evolving markets in which we compete, additional competitors with significant market presence and financial resources may enter those markets, and thereby intensify competition. Existing and potential competitors may also develop relationships with our distributors in a manner that could significantly harm our ability to sell, market and develop our products. Our major competitors may be better able than we to successfully endure downturns in our industrial sector. Our competitors could develop a more efficient product or undertake more aggressive and costly marketing campaigns than ours, which may adversely affect our marketing strategies and could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
 
We expect that we will be required to continue to invest in product development and productivity improvements to compete effectively in our markets. In periods of reduced demand for our products, we can either choose to maintain market share by reducing our selling prices to meet competition or maintain selling prices, which likely sacrifice market would share. Sales and overall profitability would be reduced in either case. In addition, we cannot assure you that additional competitors will not enter our existing markets, or that we will be able to compete successfully against existing or new competition.

WE MAY EXPERIENCE MAJOR ACCIDENTS IN THE COURSE OF OUR OPERATIONS, WHICH MAY CAUSE SIGNIFICANT PROPERTY DAMAGE AND PERSONAL INJURIES.

We may experience major accidents in the course of our operations, which may cause significant property damage and personal injuries. Significant industry-related accidents and natural disasters may cause interruptions to various parts of our operations, or could result in property or environmental damage, increase in operating expenses or loss of revenue. The occurrence of such accidents and the resulting consequences may not be covered adequately, or at all, by the insurance policies we carry. In accordance with customary practice in China, we do not carry any business interruption insurance or third party liability insurance for personal injury or environmental damage arising from accidents on our property or relating to our operations other than our automobiles. Losses or payments incurred may have a material adverse effect on our operating performance if such losses or payments are not fully insured.

MINERAL EXPLORATION AND DEVELOPMENT IS SUBJECT TO EXTRAORDINARY OPERATING RISKS. WE DO NOT CURRENTLY INSURE AGAINST THESE RISKS. IN THE EVENT OF A CAVE-IN OR SIMILAR OCCURRENCE, OUR LIABILITY MAY EXCEED OUR RESOURCES, WHICH WOULD HAVE AN ADVERSE IMPACT ON OUR COMPANY.

Mineral exploration, development and production involve many risks which even a combination of experience, knowledge and careful evaluation may not be able to overcome. Our operations will be subject to all of the hazards and risks inherent in these activities, including liability for pollution, cave-ins or similar hazards against which we cannot insure or against which we may elect not to insure. Any such event could result in work stoppages and damage to property, including damage to the environment. We do not currently maintain any insurance coverage against these operating hazards. The payment of any liabilities that arise from any such occurrence would have a material adverse impact on our company.

OUR PLANNED EXPANSION AND TECHNICAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS COULD BE DELAYED OR ADVERSELY AFFECTED BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, DIFFICULTIES IN OBTAINING SUFFICIENT FINANCING, TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES, OR HUMAN OR OTHER RESOURCE CONSTRAINTS.

Our planned expansion and technical improvement projects could be delayed or adversely affected by, among other things, difficulties in obtaining sufficient financing, technical difficulties, or human or other resource constraints. Moreover, the costs involved in these projects may exceed those originally contemplated. Costs savings and other economic benefits expected from these projects may not materialize as a result of any such project delays, cost overruns or changes in market circumstances. Failure to obtain intended economic benefits from these projects could adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating performances.

WE MAY ENCOUNTER RAW MATERIAL SUPPLY SHORTAGES AND PRICE INCREASES.  ANY FAILURE TO INCREASE OUR NON-RESERVE DEPOSIT EFFECTIVELY COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR OPERATIONS. IF WE CANNOT OBTAIN SUFFICIENT RAW MATERIALS AND COMPONENTS THAT MEET OUR PRODUCTION STANDARDS AT A REASONABLE COST OR AT ALL, OUR ABILITY TO PRODUCE AND MARKET OUR PRODUCTS, AND THUS OUR BUSINESS, COULD SUFFER.

One main raw material for our products is calcium aluminate powder. The quality of calcium aluminate powder is adversely affected by a lack of high quality aluminum mines, thereby affecting our products’ quality. In Shanxi and Guizhou Provinces there are abundant aluminum deposits, but the level of mining technology is relatively low, which means these provinces cannot produce nearly enough aluminum to satisfy the market needs. As a result, the price for aluminum has increased substantially in recent years. Besides aluminum, we also use coal as a raw material for the production of alumina calcium powder. With prices of different kinds of energy all rising on the horizon, the fuel coal has also become more and more expensive. All these pose problems for us to reduce cost.

While these raw materials are generally available and we have yet to experience a raw material shortage, we cannot assure that the necessary raw materials will continue to be available or in the sense of prices, accessible to us. The prices for these raw materials have been fluctuating significantly and are likely to continue to do so in the future. Numerous factors, most of which are beyond our control, can influence the prices of our raw material. These factors include general economic conditions, industry capacity utilization, vendor backlogs and transportation delays, and other uncertainties.

We may experience a shortage in the supply of certain raw materials and components in the future, and if any such shortage occurs, our manufacturing capabilities and operations could be negatively affected. We may not be able to adjust our product prices, especially in the short-term, to recover cost increases in such raw materials. Our future profitability may be adversely affected if and when we are unable to pass on the higher raw material costs to our customers, to be decided by various market factors.

If our suppliers are unwilling or unable to provide us with high-quality raw materials/components in the required amount at prices acceptable to us, we may not have any feasible alternative to continue our production. In addition, even if they can provide the necessary raw materials, the quality may fail to meet the standards required by our customers. Under such circumstances, there may be production/shipments delays or reductions in manufacturing activities. Further, we may be required to adjust our products to better work with the materials and components provided by new, alternative suppliers, if we can locate them. Moreover, the suppliers may delay shipments or supply us with raw materials of inferior quality, and adversely impact the quality and performance of our products. If any of the above events relating to our obtaining qualified raw materials occurs, our ability to produce and/or market our products will encounter difficulties and our business could suffer.

OUR MANAGEMENT INTENDS TO EXPAND OUR PRODUCTION IN THE NEAR FUTURE AND IF WE TAKE STEPS TO IMPLEMENT EXPANSION, WE WILL REQUIRE CAPITAL EXPENDITURES.

If we take actions to expand our production in the near future, we will require capital expenditures.  We cannot assure you that cash generated from our operations will be sufficient to fund these development plans, or that our actual capital expenditures will not significantly exceed our current planned amounts. If either of these conditions arises, we may have to seek external financing to satisfy our capital needs. Our ability to obtain external financing at reasonable costs is subject to a variety of uncertainties, and failure to obtain sufficient external funds when we take actions to expand our production could have adverse effect on the development of business
 
 
5

 
 
 
WE MAY UNDERTAKE ACQUISITIONS, WHICH MAY HAVE A MATERIAL ADVERSE EFFECT ON OUR ABILITY TO MANAGE OUR BUSINESS AND MAY NOT BE SUCCESSFUL.

Our growth strategy may involve the acquisition of new technologies, businesses, products or services or the creation of strategic alliances in areas in which we do not currently operate. These acquisitions could require that our management develop expertise in new areas, manage new business relationships and attract new types of customers. Furthermore, acquisitions may require significant attention from our management, and the diversion of our management’s attention and resources could have a material adverse effect on our ability to manage our business. We may also experience difficulties integrating acquisitions into our existing business and operations. Future acquisitions may also expose us to potential risks, including risks associated with:
 
·  
the integration of new operations, services and personnel;
·  
unforeseen or hidden liabilities;
·  
the diversion of resources from our existing businesses and technologies;
·  
our inability to generate sufficient revenue to offset the costs of acquisitions; and
·  
potential loss of, or harm to, relationships with employees or customers, any of which may have a material adverse effect on our ability to manage our business.

IF WE NEED ADDITIONAL CAPITAL TO FUND OUR GROWING OPERATIONS, WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO OBTAIN SUFFICIENT CAPITAL AND MAY BE FORCED TO LIMIT THE SCOPE OF OUR OPERATIONS.

If adequate additional financing is not available on reasonable terms, we may not be able to undertake plant expansion, purchase additional machinery and purchase equipment for our operations and we would have to modify our business plans accordingly. Insufficient equipment investment will result in a low level of production automation in producing alumina calcium powder and series purifying agent, thus affecting our production quality. There is no assurance that additional financing will be available to us.

In connection with our growth strategies, we may experience increased capital needs and accordingly, we may not have sufficient capital to fund our future operations without additional capital investments. Our capital needs will depend on numerous factors, including (i) our profitability; (ii) the release of competitive products by our competition; (iii) the level of our investment in research and development; and (iv)  the amount of our capital expenditures, including acquisitions. We cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain capital in the future to meet our needs.

In recent years, the securities markets in the United States have experienced a high level of price and volume volatility, and the market price of securities of many companies have experienced wide fluctuations that have not necessarily been related to the operations, performances, underlying asset values or prospects of such companies. For these reasons, our ordinary shares can also be expected to be subject to volatility resulting from purely market forces over which we will have no control. If we need additional funding we will, most likely, seek such funding in the United States (although we may be able to obtain funding in the PRC) and the market fluctuations affect on our stock price could limit our ability to obtain equity financing.

If we cannot obtain additional funding, we may be required to: (i) limit our plant expansion; (ii) limit our marketing efforts; and (iii) decrease or eliminate capital expenditures.

Such reductions could materially adversely affect our business and our ability to compete.

IF OUR END-USER CUSTOMERS THAT USE OUR PRODUCTS SUCCESSFULLY ASSERT PRODUCT LIABILITY CLAIMS AGAINST US DUE TO DEFECTS IN OUR PRODUCTS, OUR RESULTS OF OPERATIONS MAY SUFFER AND OUR REPUTATION MAY BE HARMED.

Our products are used for various purposes, such as treating municipal sewage and industrial wastewater and purifying water for food and beverage and pharmaceutical production. These uses tend to affect large geographic areas and significant numbers of people, and often have serious impact on the environment and people’s health and safety and daily lives. Consequently, the malfunctioning of our products could potentially cause tremendous damage. If our products are not properly designed or manufactured or if they do not perform adequately in the treatment of water, we could be subject to claims for damages based on theories of product liability and other legal theories. The costs and resources to defend such claims could be substantial and, if such claims are successful, we could be responsible for paying some or all of the damages. We do not have product liability insurance for our products. In addition, negative publicity from such claims may also damage our reputation, regardless of whether such claims are successful. Any of these consequences resulting from defects in our products would harm our results of operations, adversely affect our safety reputation among customers and potential customers, decrease our overall market share and increase our costs by requiring us to take additional measures to ensure our safety precautions are even more visible and effective.

OUR LACK OF ACCOUNTING PERSONNEL WITH EDUCATION AND EXPERIENCE IN THE US GAAP CONSISTS A MATERIAL WEAKNESS IN OUR INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING AND COULD CAUSE AN OVERLOOK OR DELAY IN DETECTING A MATERIAL MISSTATEMENT OF THE COMPANY’S ANNUAL OR INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.

Our books and records are maintained in accordance with the Chinese GAAP and then converted into financial statements in accordance with the US GAAP. Our Chief Financial Officer, Mr. Lui, and the accountants under his supervision are primarily responsible for preparing our books and records under the Chinese GAAP and converting such books and records into financial statements in accordance with the US GAAP.  Mr. Lui and other accountants have limited knowledge and experience in preparing financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP and preparing financial reporting pursuant to the SEC rules and regulations. In this regard, Mr. Lui and the other accountants are not a certified public accountant or a certified management accountant in the US, and have not attended U.S. academic institutions or extended educational programs that would provide a sufficient relevant education in U.S. GAAP. Our management concluded this deficiency or deficiencies consists a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting as of this prospectus, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. We have engaged a financial advisor with US GAAP experience to improve our internal control over financial reporting, however, there is no assurance that such efforts can cure the material weakness.

WE MAY INCUR SIGNIFICANT COSTS TO ENSURE COMPLIANCE WITH UNITED STATES CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND ACCOUNTING REQUIREMENTS.

We may incur significant costs associated with our public company reporting requirements, costs associated with newly applicable corporate governance requirements, including requirements under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and other rules implemented by the SEC. We expect all of these applicable rules and regulations to significantly increase our legal and financial compliance costs and to make some activities more time consuming and costly. We also expect that these applicable rules and regulations may make it more difficult and more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance and we may be required to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage. As a result, it may be more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified individuals to serve on our board of directors or as executive officers. We are currently evaluating and monitoring developments with respect to these newly applicable rules, and we cannot predict or estimate the amount of additional costs we may incur or the timing of such costs.

GOVERNMENTAL REGULATIONS AFFECTING THE IMPORT OR EXPORT OF PRODUCTS COULD NEGATIVELY AFFECT OUR REVENUES.

We plan to expand to over-sea market based on our price advantage, however, the United States and various foreign governments have imposed controls, import license requirements, and restrictions on the import of some of our products. We do not currently export the Company’s water purifying agent directly or indirectly out of the PRC. However, if we were to begin exporting our products in the future, governmental regulation of exports, or our failure to obtain required export approval for our products, could harm our international and domestic sales and adversely affect our revenues. In addition, failure to comply with such regulations could result in penalties, costs, and restrictions on export privileges.

WE HAVE NO HISTORY OF COMPLIANCE WITH UNITED STATES SECURITIES LAWS AND ACCOUNTING RULES.

In order to comply with United States securities laws, the Company’s operating subsidiary and variable interest entities recently prepared their financial statements under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and had its initial audit of its financial statements in accordance with Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). As the Company does not have a long term familiarity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, it may be more difficult for it to comply on a timely basis with SEC reporting requirements than a comparable domestic company.

WE RELY ON CONTRACTUAL ARRANGEMENTS WITH OUR VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITY JIANGMEN WEALTH WATER AND ITS SHAREHOLDERS FOR THE OPERATION OF OUR BUSINESS, WHICH MAY NOT BE AS EFFECTIVE AS DIRECT OWNERSHIP. IF JIANGMEN WEALTH WATER AND ITS SHAREHOLDERS FAIL TO PERFORM THEIR OBLIGATIONS UNDER THESE CONTRACTUAL ARRANGEMENTS, WE MAY HAVE TO RESORT TO LITIGATION TO ENFORCE OUR RIGHTS, WHICH MAY BE TIME-CONSUMING, UNPREDICTABLE, EXPENSIVE AND DAMAGING TO OUR OPERATIONS AND REPUTATION.

We operate our business through our consolidated PRC subsidiary Jiangmen Wealth Water through a series of contractual arrangements. These contractual arrangements are intended to provide us with effective control over this entity and allow us to obtain economic benefits from it. Although we have been advised by our PRC counsel, Han Kun Law Offices, that these contractual arrangements are valid, binding and enforceable under current PRC laws, these contractual arrangements may not be as effective in providing control as direct ownership. For example, Jiangmen Wealth Water and its shareholders could breach their contractual arrangements with us by, among other things, failing to operate our business in an acceptable manner or taking other actions that are detrimental to our interests. If we were the controlling shareholder of Jiangmen Wealth Water with direct ownership, we would be able to exercise our rights as shareholders to effect changes to its board of directors, which in turn could implement changes at the management and operational level. However, under the current contractual arrangements, as a legal matter, if Jiangmen Wealth Water or its shareholders fail to perform their obligations under these contractual arrangements, we may have to incur substantial costs to enforce such arrangements, and rely on legal remedies under PRC law, including contract remedies, which may not be sufficient or effective. If we are unable to enforce these contractual arrangements, or if we suffer significant delay or other obstacles in the process of enforcing these contractual arrangements, our business and operations could be severely disrupted, which could materially and adversely affect our results of operations and damage our reputation.

THE CONTRACTUAL ARRANGEMENTS ENTERED INTO BETWEEN US AND JIANGMEN WEALTH WATER MAY RESULT IN ADVERSE TAX CONSEQUENCES TO US.

Under Chinese laws and regulations, arrangements and transactions among affiliated parties may be subject to audit or challenge by the Chinese tax authorities. We could face material and adverse tax consequences if the Chinese tax authorities determine that the contractual arrangements between us and Jiangmen Wealth Water do not represent arm’s-length prices and as a result, adjust any of the income in the form of a transfer pricing adjustment. A transfer pricing adjustment could, among other things, result in a reduction of expense deductions for Chinese tax purposes recorded by us or our PRC Subsidiaries or an increase in taxable income, all of which could increase our tax liabilities. In addition, the Chinese tax authorities may impose late payment fees and other penalties on us or our Chinese subsidiaries for under-paid taxes.

Risks Relating to the People’s Republic of China

CERTAIN POLITICAL AND ECONOMIC CONSIDERATIONS RELATING TO THE PRC COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR COMPANY.

The PRC is transitioning from a planned economy to a market economy. While the PRC government has pursued economic reforms since its adoption of the open-door policy in 1978, a large portion of the PRC economy is still operating under five-year plans and annual state plans. Through these plans and other economic measures, such as control on foreign exchange, taxation and restrictions on foreign participation in the domestic market of various industries, the PRC government exerts considerable direct and indirect influence on the economy. Many of the economic reforms carried out by the PRC government are unprecedented or experimental, and are expected to be refined and improved. Other political, economic and social factors can also lead to further readjustment of such reforms. This refining and readjustment process may not necessarily have a positive effect on our operations or future business development. Our operating results may be adversely affected by changes in the PRC’s economic and social conditions as well as by changes in the policies of the PRC government, such as changes in laws and regulations (or the official interpretation thereof), measures which may be introduced to control inflation, changes in the interest rate or method of taxation, and the imposition of restrictions on currency conversion in addition to those described below.

THE RECENT NATURE AND UNCERTAIN APPLICATION OF MANY PRC LAWS APPLICABLE TO US CREATE AN UNCERTAIN ENVIRONMENT FOR BUSINESS OPERATIONS AND THEY COULD HAVE A NEGATIVE EFFECT ON US.

The PRC legal system is a civil law system. Unlike the common law system, the civil law system is based on written statutes in which decided legal cases have little value as precedents. In 1979, the PRC began to promulgate a comprehensive system of laws and has since introduced many laws and regulations to provide general guidance on economic and business practices in the PRC and to regulate foreign investment. Progress has been made in the promulgation of laws and regulations dealing with economic matters such as corporate organization and governance, foreign investment, commerce, taxation and trade. The promulgation of new laws, changes of existing laws and the abrogation of local regulations by national laws could have a negative impact on our business and business prospects.

WE ARE REQUIRED TO MAINTAIN VARIOUS LICENSES AND PERMITS REGARDING OUR MANUFACTURING BUSINESS, AND THE LOSS OF OR FAILURE TO RENEW ANY OR ALL OF THESE LICENSES AND PERMITS MAY REQUIRE THE TEMPORARY OR PERMANENT SUSPENSION OF SOME OR ALL OF OUR OPERATIONS.

In accordance with the laws and regulations of the PRC, we are required to maintain various licenses and permits in order to operate our manufacturing business. Failure to maintain these licenses, or the loss of or failure to renew such licenses and production permits, could result in the temporary or permanent suspension of some or all of our production or distribution operations and could adversely affect our revenues and profitability.

SUBSTANTIALLY ALL OF OUR BUSINESS, ASSETS AND OPERATIONS ARE LOCATED IN PRC.

Substantially all of our business, assets and operations are located in PRC. The economy of PRC differs from the economies of most developed countries in many respects. The economy of PRC has been transitioning from a planned economy to a market-oriented economy. Although in recent years the PRC government has implemented measures emphasizing the utilization of market forces for economic reform, the reduction of state ownership of productive assets and the establishment of sound corporate governance in business enterprises, a substantial portion of productive assets in PRC is still owned by the PRC government. In addition, the PRC government continues to play a significant role in regulating industry by imposing industrial policies. It also exercises significant control over PRC’s economic growth through the allocation of resources, controlling payment of foreign currency-denominated obligations, setting monetary policy and providing preferential treatment to particular industries or companies. Some of these measures benefit the overall economy of PRC, but may have a negative effect on us.

WE DERIVE SUBSTANTIALLY ALL OF OUR REVENUES FROM SALES IN THE PRC AND ANY DOWNTURN IN THE CHINESE ECONOMY COULD HAVE A MATERIAL ADVERSE EFFECT ON OUR BUSINESS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION.

Substantially all of our revenues are generated from sales in the PRC. We anticipate that revenues from sales of our products in the PRC will continue to represent the substantial portion of our total revenues in the near future. Our sales and earnings can also be affected by changes in the general economy. Our success is influenced by a number of economic factors which affect disposable consumer income, such as employment levels, business conditions, interest rates, oil and gas prices and taxation rates. Adverse changes in these economic factors, among others, may restrict consumer spending, thereby negatively affecting our sales and profitability.

POTENTIAL ENVIRONMENTAL LIABILITY COULD HAVE A MATERIAL ADVERSE EFFECT ON OUR OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION.

To the knowledge of our management team, neither the production nor the sale of our products constitutes activities, or generates materials that create any environmental hazards or requires our business operations to comply with PRC environmental laws. Although it has not been alleged by PRC government officials that we have violated any current environmental regulations, we cannot assure you that the PRC government will not amend the current PRC environmental protection laws and regulations. Our business and operating results may be materially and adversely affected if we were to be held liable for violating existing environmental regulations or if we were to increase expenditures to comply with environmental regulations affecting our operations.

CURRENCY CONVERSION COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR FINANCIAL CONDITION.

The PRC government imposes control over the conversion of Renminbi into foreign currencies. Under the current unified floating exchange rate system, the People’s Bank of China publishes an exchange rate, which we refer to as the PBOC exchange rate, based on the previous day’s dealings in the inter-bank foreign exchange market. Financial institutions authorized to deal in foreign currency may enter into foreign exchange transactions at exchange rates within an authorized range above or below the PBOC exchange rate according to market conditions.

Pursuant to the Foreign Exchange Control Regulations of the PRC issued by the State Council which came into effect on April 1, 1996 and amended on January 14, 1997 and August 5, 2008, and the Regulations on the Administration of Foreign Exchange Settlement, Sale and Payment of the PRC which came into effect on July 1, 1996, regarding foreign exchange control, conversion of Renminbi into foreign exchange by Foreign Investment Enterprises, or FIEs, for use on current account items, including the distribution of dividends and profits to foreign investors, is permissible. FIEs are permitted to convert their after-tax dividends and profits to foreign exchange and remit such foreign exchange to their foreign exchange bank accounts in the PRC. Conversion of Renminbi into foreign currencies for capital account items, including direct investment, loans, and security investment, is still under certain restrictions. On January 14, 1997, the State Council amended the Foreign Exchange Control Regulations and added, among other things, an important provision, which provides that the PRC government shall not impose restrictions on recurring international payments and transfers under current account items.

Enterprises in the PRC (including FIEs) which require foreign exchange for transactions relating to current account items, may, without approval of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange, or SAFE, effect payment from their foreign exchange account or convert and pay at the designated foreign exchange banks by providing valid receipts and proofs.

Convertibility of foreign exchange in respect of capital account items, such as direct investment and capital contribution, is still subject to certain restrictions, and prior approval from the SAFE or its relevant branches must be sought.

Furthermore, the Renminbi is not freely convertible into foreign currencies nor can it be freely remitted abroad. Under the PRC’s Foreign Exchange Control Regulations and the Administration of Settlement, Sales and Payment of Foreign Exchange Regulations, Foreign Invested Enterprises are permitted either to repatriate or distribute its profits or dividends in foreign currencies out of its foreign exchange accounts, or exchange Renminbi for foreign currencies through banks authorized to conduct foreign exchange business. The conversion of Renminbi into foreign exchange by Foreign Invested Enterprises for recurring items, including the distribution of dividends to foreign investors, is permissible. The conversion of Reminbi into foreign currencies for capital items, such as direct investment, loans and security investment, is subject, however, to more stringent controls.

Jiangmen Huiyuan is a FIE to which the Foreign Exchange Control Regulations are applicable. Accordingly, we will have to maintain sufficient foreign exchange to pay dividends and/or satisfy other foreign exchange requirements.

SAFE RULES AND REGULATIONS MAY LIMIT OUR ABILITY TO TRANSFER THE NET PROCEEDS FROM THIS OFFERING TO JIANGMEN WEALTH WATER AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES, WHICH MAY ADVERSELY AFFECT THE BUSINESS EXPANSION OF JIANGMEN WEALTH WATER AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES, AND WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO CONVERT THE NET PROCEEDS FROM THIS OFFERING INTO RENMINBI TO INVEST IN OR ACQUIRE ANY OTHER PRC COMPANIES.

On August 29, 2008, SAFE promulgated Circular 142, a notice regulating the conversion by a foreign-invested company of foreign currency into Renminbi by restricting how the converted Renminbi may be used.  The notice requires that the registered capital of a foreign-invested company settled in Renminbi converted from foreign currencies may only be used for purposes within the business scope approved by the applicable governmental authority and may not be used for equity investments within the PRC.  In addition, SAFE strengthened its oversight of the flow and use of the registered capital of a foreign-invested company settled in Renminbi converted from foreign currencies. The use of such Renminbi capital may not be changed without SAFE’s approval, and may not in any case be used to repay Renminbi loans if the proceeds of such loans have not been used.  Violations of Circular 142 will result in severe penalties, such as heavy fines.  As a result, Circular 142 may significantly limit our ability to transfer the net proceeds from this offering to Jiangmen Wealth Water and its subsidiaries and we may not be able to convert the net proceeds from this offering into Renminbi to invest in or acquire any other PRC companies.

EXCHANGE RATE VOLATILITY COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR FINANCIAL CONDITION.

Since 1994, the exchange rate for Renminbi against the United States dollar has remained relatively stable, most of the time in the region of approximately RMB8.28 to $1.00. However, in 2005, the Chinese government announced that it would begin pegging the exchange rate of the Chinese Renminbi against a number of currencies, rather than just the U.S. dollar and, the exchange rate for the Renminbi against the U.S. dollar became RMB8.02 to $1.00. If we decide to convert Chinese Renminbi into United States dollars for other business purposes and the United States dollar appreciates against this currency, the United States dollar equivalent of the Chinese Renminbi we convert would be reduced. There can be no assurance that future movements in the exchange rate of Renminbi and other currencies will not have an adverse effect on our financial condition.

INFLATION IN THE PRC COULD NEGATIVELY AFFECT OUR PROFITABILITY AND GROWTH.

While the PRC economy has experienced rapid growth, it has been uneven among various sectors of the economy and in different geographical areas of the country. Rapid economic growth can lead to growth in the money supply and rising inflation. If prices for our products do not rise at a rate that is sufficient to fully absorb inflation-driven increases in our costs of supplies, our profitability can be adversely affected.

In order to control inflation in the past, the PRC government has imposed controls on bank credits, limits on loans for fixed assets and restrictions on state bank lending. The implementation of these and other similar policies can impede economic growth. In October 2004, the People’s Bank of China, the PRC’s central bank, raised interest rates for the first time in nearly a decade and indicated in a statement that the measure was prompted by inflationary concerns in the Chinese economy. Repeated rises in interest rates by the central bank would likely slow economic activity in China which could, in turn, materially increase our costs and also reduce demand for our products.

THE SLOWDOWN OF CHINA’S ECONOMY CAUSED IN PART BY THE RECENT CHALLENGING GLOBAL ECONOMIC CONDITIONS MAY ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR BUSINESS, RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION.

China’s economy has experienced a slowdown after the second quarter of 2007, when the quarterly growth rate of China’s gross domestic product reached 11.9%. A number of factors have contributed to this slowdown, including appreciation of the Renminbi, which has adversely affected China’s exports, and tightening macroeconomic measures and monetary policies adopted by the Chinese government aimed at preventing overheating of China’s economy and controlling China’s high level of inflation. The slowdown has been further exacerbated by the challenging global economic conditions in the financial services and credit markets, which in recent months has resulted in extreme volatility and dislocation of the global capital and credit markets.
 
 
10

 
 
It is uncertain how long the challenging global economic conditions in the financial services and credit markets will continue and how much of an adverse impact it will have on the global economy in general and the Chinese economy specifically. The slowdown of the Chinese economy could lead to a decrease in business and construction activity nationwide, which could reduce demand for our products and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

SINCE MOST OF OUR ASSETS ARE LOCATED IN PRC, ANY DIVIDENDS OF PROCEEDS FROM LIQUIDATION IS SUBJECT TO THE APPROVAL OF THE RELEVANT CHINESE GOVERNMENT AGENCIES.

Our assets are predominantly located inside PRC. Under the laws governing Foreign Invested Enterprises in 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 the relevant government agency’s approval and supervision as well as the foreign exchange control. This may generate additional risk for our investors in case of dividend payment and liquidation.

IT MAY BE DIFFICULT TO AFFECT SERVICE OF PROCESS AND ENFORCEMENT OF LEGAL JUDGMENTS UPON OUR COMPANY AND OUR OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS BECAUSE THEY RESIDE OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES.

As our operations are presently based in PRC and most of our directors and officers reside in PRC, service of process on our company and such director and officer may be difficult to effect within the United States. Also, our main assets are located in PRC and any judgment obtained in the United States against us may not be enforceable outside the United States.

OUR LABOR COSTS HAVE INCREASED AND ARE LIKELY TO FURTHER INCREASE AS A RESULT OF CHANGES IN CHINESE LABOR LAWS.

We expect to experience an increase in our cost of labor due to recent changes in Chinese labor laws which are likely to increase costs further and impose restrictions on our relationship with our employees. In June 2007, the National People’s Congress of the PRC enacted new labor law legislation called the Labor Contract Law and more strictly enforced existing labor laws. The new law, which became effective on January 1, 2008, amended and formalized workers’ rights concerning overtime hours, pensions, layoffs, employment contracts and the role of trade unions. As a result of the new law, we have had to increase the salaries of our employees, provide additional benefits to our employees, and revise certain other of our labor practices. The increase in labor costs has increased our operating costs, which increase we have not always been able to pass through to our customers. In addition, under the new law, employees who either have worked for us for ten years or more or who have had two consecutive fixed-term contracts must be given an “open-ended employment contract” that, in effect, constitutes a lifetime, permanent contract, which is terminable only in the event the employee materially breaches our rules and regulations or is in serious dereliction of his or her duties. Such non-cancelable employment contracts will substantially increase our employment related risks and limit our ability to downsize our workforce in the event of an economic downturn. No assurance can be given that we will not in the future be subject to labor strikes or that we will not have to make other payments to resolve future labor issues caused by the new laws. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that the labor laws will not change further or that their interpretation and implementation will vary, which may have a negative effect upon our business and results of operations.

OUR FAILURE TO FULLY COMPLY WITH PRC LABOR-RELATED LAWS HISTORICALLY EXPOSES US TO POTENTIAL PENALTY RISKS.

In October, 2010, the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress of the PRC promulgated the Social Insurance Law, which became effective on July 1, 2011.   The Social Insurance Law regulates the five basic social security insurance schemes, i.e. pension, medical insurance, work-related injury insurance, unemployment insurance and maternity insurance.  It is the first comprehensive law of China to regulate the five social insurance schemes and associated administrative issues, such as collection of social insurance premiums, management of social insurance funds and supervision of social insurances schemes.  According to the Social Insurance Law, employers who fail to pay sufficient social insurance premiums within the prescribed time limit may be ordered to rectify any such violations, may be assessed a late fee of 0.05% of the amount overdue per day from the original due date by the relevant authority and may also be imposed to one to three times of the amount overdue as fines by the relevant authorities.  According to the relevant PRC regulations on housing provident funds, PRC enterprises are required to contribute housing provident funds for their employees on a monthly base. Employers who fail to make housing provident funds may be ordered to rectify any such violation within a prescribed time limit.   Jiangmen Wealth Water, Shanxi Wealth and Guizhou Yufeng, had not paid sufficient social insurance premiums and housing provident funds for their employees pursuant to the applicable PRC laws in their history. Management has calculated our exposure related to the historical outstanding social insurance premiums and housing provident funds and believes the amount, including potential penalties is less than $300,000, and has made adequate provision of such outstanding amounts in our financial statements.  However, we may still be subject to fines for the prior non-compliance with applicable PRC labor-related laws and regulations and failure to rectify any such violations within the period prescribed by the relevant authorities.

A FAILURE BY OUR SHAREHOLDERS OR BENEFICIAL OWNERS WHO ARE PRC CITIZENS OR RESIDENTS TO COMPLY WITH CERTAIN PRC FOREIGN EXCHANGE REGULATIONS COULD RESTRICT OUR ABILITY TO DISTRIBUTE PROFITS, RESTRICT OUR OVERSEAS AND CROSS-BORDER INVESTMENT ACTIVITIES OR SUBJECT US TO LIABILITY UNDER PRC LAWS, WHICH COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR BUSINESS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION.

In October 2005, SAFE issued the Notice on Relevant Issues Concerning Foreign Exchange Administration for PRC Residents Engaging in Financing and Roundtrip Investments via Overseas Special Purpose Vehicles (“Circular 75”). Circular 75 regulates the foreign exchange matters in relation to the use of a “special purpose vehicle” by PRC residents to seek offshore equity financing and conduct “round trip investment” in China. Under Circular 75, a “special purpose vehicle” refers to an offshore entity established or controlled, directly or indirectly, by PRC residents or PRC entities for the purpose of seeking offshore equity financing using assets or interests owned by such PRC residents or PRC entities in onshore companies, while “round trip investment” refers to the direct investment in China by the PRC residents through the “special purpose vehicles,” including without limitation establishing foreign invested enterprises and using such foreign invested enterprises to purchase or control (by way of contractual arrangements) onshore assets. Circular 75 requires that, before establishing or controlling a “special purpose vehicle”, PRC residents and PRC entities are required to complete foreign exchange registration with the local offices of SAFE for their overseas investments. In addition, any PRC resident that is the shareholder of an offshore special purpose company is required to amend his or her SAFE registration with the SAFE or its competent local branch, with respect to that offshore special purpose company in connection with any of its increase or decrease of capital, transfer of shares, merger, division, equity investment or creation of any security interest over any assets located in China. To further clarify the implementation of Circular 75, SAFE also requires the PRC subsidiaries of an offshore company governed by Circular 75 to coordinate the filing and updating of the SAFE registrations in a timely manner regarding major capital changes of the offshore special purpose company. If our direct or indirect shareholders who are PRC citizens or residents do not complete their registration with the local SAFE authorities, our PRC subsidiaries will be prohibited from distributing their profits and proceeds from any reduction in capital, share transfer or liquidation to us, and we may be restricted in our ability to contribute additional capital to our PRC subsidiaries.

Because of uncertainty in how Circular 75 will be interpreted and enforced, we cannot be sure how it will affect our business operations or future plans. For example, our PRC subsidiaries’ ability to conduct foreign exchange activities, such as the remittance of dividends and foreign currency-denominated borrowings, may be subject to compliance with Circular 75 by our PRC resident beneficial holders over whom we have no control. We attempt to comply, and attempt to ensure that our shareholders, who are PRC citizens or residents, comply with Circular 75 requirements. We have requested Mr. Mingzhuo Tan who is PRC resident to make the necessary applications, filings and amendments as required under Circular 75 and other related rules. However, some or all of our shareholders who are PRC residents may not comply with our request to make or obtain any applicable registrations or approvals required by Circular 75. Furthermore, we may not at all times be fully aware or informed of the identities of all of our beneficial owners who are PRC citizens or residents, and we may not always be able to compel beneficial owners of our securities to comply with Circular 75 requirements. As a result, some or all of our shareholders or beneficial owners who are PRC citizens or residents may not at all times comply with, or in the future make or obtain any applicable registrations or approvals required by, Circular 75 or other related regulations. Failure by any such shareholders or beneficial owners to comply with Circular 75 could subject us to fines or legal sanctions, restrict our overseas or cross-border investment activities, or limit our subsidiaries’ ability to make distributions or pay dividends or affect our ownership structure, which could adversely affect our business and prospects.

WE MAY BE REQUIRED TO OBTAIN PRIOR APPROVAL OF THE CHINA SECURITIES REGULATORY COMMISSION, OR CSRC FOR THE LISTING AND TRADING OF OUR ORDINARY SHARES.

On August 8, 2006, the PRC Ministry of Commerce (“MOFCOM”), joined by the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council, the State Administration of Taxation, the State Administration for Industry and Commerce, the China Securities Regulatory Commission and SAFE, released a substantially amended version of the Provisions for Foreign Investors to Merge with or Acquire Domestic Enterprises (the “New M&A Regulations”), which took effect on September 8, 2006 and was further amended on June 22, 2009. These new rules significantly revised China’s regulatory framework governing onshore-to-offshore restructurings and foreign acquisitions of domestic enterprises. These new rules signify greater PRC government attention to cross-border merger, acquisition and other investment activities, by confirming MOFCOM as a key regulator for issues related to mergers and acquisitions in China and requiring MOFCOM approval of a broad range of merger, acquisition and investment transactions. Further, the new rules establish reporting requirements for acquisition of control by foreigners of companies in key industries, and reinforce the ability of the Chinese government to monitor and prohibit foreign control transactions in key industries.
 
 
12

 
 
Among other things, the New M&A Regulations include new provisions that purport to require that an offshore special purpose vehicle, or SPV, formed for listing purposes and controlled directly or indirectly by PRC companies or individuals must obtain the approval of the CSRC prior to the listing and trading of such SPV’s securities on an overseas stock exchange. On September 21, 2006, the CSRC published on its official website procedures specifying documents and materials required to be submitted to it by SPVs seeking CSRC approval of their overseas listings. However, the application of this PRC regulation remains unclear with no consensus currently existing among the leading PRC law firms regarding the scope and applicability of the CSRC approval requirement. Our PRC legal counsel, Han Kun Law Offices, believes that it is uncertain whether the transaction is subject to CSRC’s approval prior CSRC approval for the transaction (i) Jiangmen Huiyuan was incorporated by the means of direct investment by Wealth Environmental Technology, and there was no acquisition of the equity or assets of a “PRC domestic company” as such term is defined under the New M&A Rules; and (ii) there is no provision in the New M&A Rules that clearly classifies the contractual arrangements between Jiangmen Huiyuan and Jiangmen Wealth Water as a kind of transaction falling under the New M&A Rules; and in reality, many other similar companies have completed similar transactions like the share exchange and private placement contemplated under the Exchange Agreement without CSRC’s approval and our PRC legal counsel is not aware of any situation in which the CSRC has imposed a punishment or penalty in connection with any such transactions. However, if the CSRC or other PRC Government Agencies subsequently determine that CSRC approval is required for the share exchange contemplated under the Exchange Agreement, we may face material regulatory actions or other sanctions from the CSRC or other PRC Government Agencies. These regulatory agencies may impose fines and penalties on our operations in the PRC, limit our operating privileges in the PRC, or take other actions that could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, reputation and prospects, as well as the trading price of our ordinary shares.

UNDER THE NEW EIT LAW, WE, WEALTH ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION OR WEALTH ENVIRONMENTAL TECHNOLOGY, MAY BE CLASSIFIED AS “RESIDENT ENTERPRISES” OF CHINA FOR TAX PURPOSE, WHICH MAY SUBJECT US, WEALTH ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION OR WEALTH ENVIRONMENTAL TECHNOLOGY TO PRC INCOME TAX ON TAXABLE GLOBAL INCOME.

Under Enterprise Income Tax Law of the PRC (“EIT Law”) that became effective on January 1, 2008, enterprises are classified as “resident enterprises” and “non-resident enterprises.” Enterprises established outside of China whose “de facto management bodies” are located in China are considered PRC “tax resident enterprises” and will generally be subject to the uniform 25% PRC enterprise income tax rate on their global income. In addition, a tax circular issued by the State Administration of Taxation on April 22, 2009 regarding the standards used to classify certain Chinese-invested enterprises established outside of China as “resident enterprises” clarified that dividends and other income paid by such “resident enterprises” will be considered to be PRC source income, subject to PRC withholding tax, currently at a rate of 10%, when recognized by non-PRC enterprise shareholders. This recent circular also subjects such “resident enterprises” to various reporting requirements with the PRC tax authorities. Under the implementation rules to the Enterprise Income Tax Law, a “de facto management body” is defined as a body that has material and overall management and control over the manufacturing and business operations, personnel and human resources, finances and other assets of an enterprise. In addition, the tax circular mentioned above details that certain Chinese-invested enterprises will be classified as “resident enterprises” if the following are located or resident in China: senior management personnel and departments that are responsible for daily production, operation and management; financial and personnel decision making bodies; key properties, accounting books, company seal, and minutes of board meetings and shareholders’ meetings; and half or more of the senior management or directors having voting rights.

Given the short history of the EIT Law and lack of applicable legal precedent, it remains unclear how the PRC tax authorities will determine the PRC tax resident treatment of a non-PRC company such as us. Our management is substantially based in the PRC and expected to be based in the PRC in the future. If the PRC tax authorities determine that we are a “resident enterprise” for PRC enterprise income tax purposes, a number of unfavorable tax consequences could follow. First, we could be subject to the enterprise income tax at a rate of 25% on our global taxable income, as well as PRC enterprise tax reporting obligations. Second, although under the New EIT Law and its implementing rules dividends paid to us from our PRC Subsidiaries would qualify as “tax-exempted income”, we cannot assure you that such dividends will not be subject to a 10% withholding tax, as the PRC foreign exchange control authorities, which enforce the withholding tax, have not yet issued guidance with respect to the processing of outbound remittances to entities that are treated as resident enterprises for PRC EIT purposes. Finally, it is possible that future guidance issued with respect to the new “resident enterprise” classification could result in a situation in which a withholding tax of 10% for our non-PRC enterprise shareholders or a potential withholding tax of 20% for non-PRC individual shareholders is imposed on dividends we pay to them and with respect to gains derived by our non-PRC shareholders from transferring our shares. In addition to the uncertainty in how the new “resident enterprise” classification could apply, it is also possible that the rules may change in the future, possibly with retroactive effect. We are actively monitoring the “resident enterprise” classification rules and are evaluating appropriate organization changes to avoid this treatment, to the extent possible.

Currently, there has not been a definitive determination as to the “resident enterprise” or “non-resident enterprise” status of us. However, since it is not anticipated that we would receive dividends or generate other income in the near future, we are not expected to have any income that would be subject to the 25% enterprise income tax on global income in the near future. We will consult with the PRC tax authorities and make any necessary tax payment if we (based on future clarifying guidance issued by the PRC), or the PRC tax authorities, determine that we are a resident enterprise under the EIT Law, and if we were to have income in the future.

WE FACE UNCERTAINTY FROM CHINA’S CIRCULAR ON STRENGTHENING THE ADMINISTRATION OF ENTERPRISE INCOME TAX ON NON-RESIDENT ENTERPRISES’ SHARE TRANSFER INCOME (“CIRCULAR 698”) THAT WAS RELEASED IN DECEMBER 2009 WITH RETROACTIVE EFFECT FROM JANUARY 1, 2008.

The Chinese State Administration of Taxation (SAT) released a circular (Guoshuihan No. 698 – Circular 698) on December 10, 2009 that addresses the transfer of shares of Chinese resident companies by nonresident companies. Circular 698, which is effective retroactively to January 1, 2008, may have a significant impact on many companies that use offshore holding companies to invest in China. Circular 698, which provides parties with a short period of time to comply its requirements, indirectly taxes foreign companies on gains derived from the indirect sale of a Chinese company. Where a foreign investor indirectly transfers equity interests in a Chinese resident enterprise by selling the shares in an offshore holding company, and the latter is located in a country or jurisdiction where the effective tax burden is less than 12.5% or where the offshore income of his, her, or its residents is not taxable, the foreign investor is required to provide the tax authority in charge of that Chinese resident enterprise with the relevant information within 30 days of the transfers. Moreover, where a foreign investor indirectly transfers equity interests in a Chinese resident enterprise through an abuse of form of organization and there are no reasonable commercial purposes such that the corporate income tax liability is avoided, the PRC tax authority will have the power to re-assess the nature of the equity transfer in accordance with PRC’s “substance-over-form” principle and deny the existence of the offshore holding company that is used for tax planning purposes.

There is uncertainty as to the application of Circular 698. For example, while the term “indirectly transfer” is not defined, it is understood that the relevant PRC tax authorities have jurisdiction regarding requests for information over a wide range of foreign entities having no direct contact with China. Moreover, the relevant authority has not yet promulgated any formal provisions or formally declared or stated how to calculate the effective tax in the country or jurisdiction and to what extent and the process of the disclosure to the tax authority in charge of that Chinese resident enterprise. In addition, there are no formal declarations with regard to how to decide “abuse of form of organization” and “reasonable commercial purpose”. Due to the short history of the New EIT law and lack of applicable legal precedents, it remains unclear how the PRC tax authorities will determine the PRC tax resident treatment of our holding companies, China Growth Corporation, a Cayman Island corporation, Wealth Environmental Protection, a company organized under the laws of the British Virgin Islands and Wealth Environmental Technology, a company organized under the laws of Hong Kong. As a result, we may become at risk of being taxed under Circular 698 and we may be required to expend valuable resources to comply with Circular 698 or to establish that we should not be taxed under Circular 698, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

WE RELY PRINCIPALLY ON DIVIDENDS AND OTHER DISTRIBUTIONS ON EQUITY PAID BY OUR WHOLLY-OWNED SUBSIDIARY TO FUND ANY CASH AND FINANCING REQUIREMENTS WE MAY HAVE, AND ANY LIMITATION ON THE ABILITY OF OUR SUBSIDIARY TO PAY DIVIDENDS TO US COULD HAVE A MATERIAL ADVERSE EFFECT ON OUR ABILITY TO CONDUCT OUR BUSINESS.

As a holding company, we rely principally on dividends and other distributions on equity paid by Jiangmen Huiyuan, for our cash requirements, including the funds necessary to service any debt we may incur or for operating a public company. Jiangmen Huiyuan’s sole operations consist of providing technical and consulting services to Jiangmen Wealth Water pursuant to the contractual arrangements and all of Jiangmen Huiyuan’s revenue is generated from the service fees paid to it by Jiangmen Wealth Water pursuant to the contractual arrangements. As all of Jiangmen Huiyuan’s revenues consist of the annual service fee that Jiangmen Wealth Water pays to Jiangmen Huiyuan pursuant to the contractual arrangements, the amount of cash that Jiangmen Huiyuan has to distribute to us is entirely dependent on the operations of Jiangmen Wealth Water and the amount of annual service fee, which can vary from time to time. The payment of the service fee can be delayed by the Company, which could negatively affect its cash and financing requirements.

If Jiangmen Huiyuan incurs debt on its own behalf in the future, the instruments governing the debt may restrict its ability to pay dividends or make other distributions to us. In addition, the PRC tax authorities may require us to adjust our taxable income under the contractual arrangements Jiangmen Huiyuan currently has in place with Jiangmen Wealth Water in a way that would materially and adversely affect Jiangmen Huiyuan’s ability to pay dividends and other distributions to us. Furthermore, relevant PRC laws, rules and regulations permit payments of dividends by Jiangmen Huiyuan only out of its retained earnings, if any, determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards and regulations. Under PRC laws, rules and regulations, Jiangmen Huiyuan is also required to set aside a portion of its net profit each year to meet the statutory general reserve fund requirement. These reserves are not distributable as cash dividends. The statutory general reserve fund requires annual appropriations of 10% of after-tax profit to be set aside prior to payment of dividends until the cumulative fund reaches 50% of the registered capital. As a result Jiangmen Huiyuan is restricted in its ability to transfer a portion of its net assets to us whether in the form of dividends, loans or advances. Any limitation on the ability of Jiangmen Huiyuan to pay dividends to us could materially and adversely limit our ability to grow, make investments or acquisitions that could be beneficial to our businesses, pay dividends or otherwise fund and conduct our business.

The PRC government also imposes controls on the conversion of RMB into foreign currencies and the remittance of currencies out of the PRC. We may experience difficulties in completing the administrative procedures necessary to obtain and remit foreign currency for the payment of dividends from the Company’s profits.

THE CHINESE GOVERNMENT EXERTS SUBSTANTIAL INFLUENCE OVER THE MANNER IN WHICH WE MUST CONDUCT OUR BUSINESS ACTIVITIES.

We are dependent on our relationship with the local government in the province in which we operate our business. Chinese government has exercised and continues to exercise substantial control over virtually every sector of the Chinese economy through regulation and state ownership. Our ability to operate in China may be harmed by changes in its laws and regulations, including those relating to taxation, environmental regulations, land use rights, property and other matters. We believe that our operations in China are in material compliance with all applicable legal and regulatory requirements. However, the central or local governments of these jurisdictions may impose new, stricter regulations or interpretations of existing regulations that would require additional expenditures and efforts on our part to ensure our compliance with such regulations or interpretations. Accordingly, government actions in the future, including any decision not to continue to support recent economic reforms and to return to a more centrally planned economy or regional or local variations in the implementation of economic policies, could have a significant effect on economic conditions in China or particular regions thereof, and could require us to divest ourselves of any interest we then hold in Chinese properties.

Future inflation in China may inhibit our ability to conduct business in China. In recent years, the Chinese economy has experienced periods of rapid expansion and high rates of inflation. Rapid economic growth can lead to growth in the money supply and rising inflation. If prices for our products rise at a rate that is insufficient to compensate for the rise in the costs of supplies, it may have an adverse effect on profitability. These factors have led to the adoption by Chinese government, from time to time, of various corrective measures designed to restrict the availability of credit or regulate growth and contain inflation. High inflation may in the future cause Chinese government to impose controls on credit and/or prices, or to take other action, which could inhibit economic activity in China, and thereby harm the market for our products.

IF OUR LAND USE RIGHTS ARE REVOKED, OUR OPERATIONS WOULD BE ADVERSELT AFFECTED.

Under Chinese law land is owned by the state or rural collective economic organizations. The state issues to the land users the land use right certificate. Land use rights can be revoked and the land user forced to vacate at any time when redevelopment of the land is in the public interest. The public interest rationale is interpreted quite broadly and the process of land appropriation may be less than transparent. Each of Jiangmen Wealth Water, Guizhou Yufeng and Shanxi Wealth relies on these land use rights as the cornerstone of their operations, and the loss of such rights would have a material adverse effect on our company.

Risks Associated with Our Securities

WE ARE NOT LIKELY TO PAY CASH DIVIDENDS IN THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE.

We currently intend to retain any future earnings for use in the operation and expansion of our business. Accordingly, we do not expect to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future, but will review this policy as circumstances dictate. Should we determine to pay dividends in the future, our ability to do so may be, from time to time, subject to restrictions on our PRC Operation Companies’ ability to make distributions to us, including restrictions on the conversion of RMB into U.S. dollars or other hard currency and other regulatory restrictions.

WE MAY BE SUBJECT TO PENNY STOCK REGULATIONS AND RESTRICTIONS AND YOU MAY HAVE DIFFICULTY SELLING OUR ORDINARY SHARES.

The SEC has adopted regulations which generally define so-called “penny stocks” as an equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exemptions. If our ordinary shares become a “penny stock”, we may become subject to Rule 15g-9 under the Exchange Act (the “Penny Stock Rule”). This rule imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers that sell such securities to persons other than established customers and “accredited investors” (generally, individuals with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000, or $300,000 together with their spouses).  For transactions covered by Rule 15g-9, a broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to sale. As a result, this rule may affect the ability of broker-dealers to sell our securities and may affect the ability of purchasers to sell any of our securities in the secondary market.
 
 
15

 
 
For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require delivery, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, of a disclosure schedule prepared by the SEC relating to the penny stock market. Disclosure is also required to be made about sales commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative and current quotations for the securities. Finally, monthly statements are required to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stock.

There can be no assurance that our ordinary shares will qualify for exemption from the Penny Stock Rule. In any event, even if our ordinary shares were exempt from the Penny Stock Rule, we would remain subject to Section 15(b)(6) of the Exchange Act, which gives the SEC the authority to restrict any person from participating in a distribution of penny stock if the SEC finds that such a restriction would be in the public interest.

OUR ORDINARY SHARES HAVE NOT BEEN LISTED FOR TRADING ON THE OTC BULLETIN BOARD OR ON ANY STOCK EXCHANGE AND THERE CAN BE NO ASSURANCE THAT THERE WILL BE A MARKET DEVELOPED FOR OUR ORDINARY SHARES IN THE FUTURE.

Our ordinary shares are not currently listed or quoted for trading on any national securities exchange or national quotation system. We intend to apply for the quotation of our ordinary shares on a national major share exchange, such as the New York Stock Exchange or the NASDAQ Stock Market. There is no guarantee that such national major share exchange will permit our shares to be listed and traded.  Even if our shares may be listed on a national major share exchange, there can be no assurance that a public market for our shares will develop.  Consequently, investors may not be able to liquidate their investment or liquidate it at a price that reflects the value of the business.

Even if a public market should develop, the price may be highly volatile. Because there may be a low price for our ordinary shares, many brokerage firms may not be willing to effect transactions in the securities. Even if an investor finds a broker willing to effect a transaction in our ordinary shares, the combination of brokerage commissions, transfer fees, taxes, if any, and any other selling costs may exceed the selling price. Further, many lending institutions will not permit the use of such ordinary shares as collateral for any loans.

WE MAY USE THESE PROCEEDS IN WAYS WITH WHICH YOU MAY NOT AGREE.

We would receive proceeds to the extent that the selling shareholders exercise the Warrants in cash.  While we currently intend to use such proceeds for working capital and general corporate purposes, we have considerable discretion in the application of the proceeds. You will not have the opportunity, as part of your investment decision, to assess whether the proceeds are being used in a manner agreeable to you. You must rely on our judgment regarding the application of such proceeds, if any, from the exercise of the Warrants. Such proceeds may be used for corporate purposes that do not immediately improve our profitability or increase the price of our shares.

HOLDERS OF OUR ORDINARY SHARES MAY FACE DIFFICULTIES IN PROTECTING THEIR INTERESTS BECAUSE WE ARE INCORPORATED UNDER CAYMAN ISLANDS LAW.

Our corporate affairs are governed by our memorandum of association and articles of association, and by the Companies Law (2010 Revision) and the common law of the Cayman Islands. The rights of our shareholders and the fiduciary responsibilities of our directors under Cayman Islands law are not as clearly established as under statutes or judicial precedent in existence in jurisdictions in the United States. Therefore, shareholders may have more difficulty in protecting their interests in the face of actions by our management or board of directors than would shareholders of a corporation incorporated in a jurisdiction in the United States, due to the comparatively less developed nature of Cayman Islands law in this area.

Shareholders of Cayman Islands exempted companies have no general rights under Cayman Islands law to inspect corporate records and accounts or to obtain copies of lists of our shareholders. Our directors have discretion under our amended and restated memorandum of association and articles of association to determine whether and to what extent and at what times and places and under what conditions or regulations our accounts, books and documents, or any of them, shall be open to the inspection of shareholders not being directors, and no shareholder (not being a director) shall have any right of inspecting any account, book or document except as conferred by applicable law or the relevant code, rules and regulations of the exchange on which our shares are listed (if any), or authorized by our directors or by ordinary resolution of our shareholders. This may make it more difficult for you to obtain the information needed to establish any facts necessary for a shareholder motion or to solicit proxies from other shareholders in connection with a proxy contest.

Except as required by law, we assume no obligation to update any forward-looking statements publicly, or to update the reasons actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in any forward-looking statements, even if new information becomes available in the future.

USE OF PROCEEDS

The selling shareholders are selling the ordinary shares covered by this prospectus for their own account. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of these shares. To the extent that the selling shareholders exercise in cash all of the Warrants, we would receive $5,011,273 in the aggregate from such exercise.  The proceeds from the cash exercise of such Warrants, if any, will be used by us for working capital and other general corporate purposes. We will have broad discretion in the way that we use these proceeds. See “Risk Factors — Risks Related to our Securities — We may use these proceeds in ways with which you may not agree.”  We have agreed to bear the expenses relating to the registration of the shares for the selling security holders.

DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE

Since our ordinary shares are not listed or quoted on any exchange or quotation system, the offering price of the ordinary shares was determined by the effective price per ordinary share sold in a private placement completed on December 15, 2010, pursuant to an exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.

The offering price of our ordinary shares does not necessarily bear any relationship to our book value, assets, past operating results, financial condition or any other established criteria of value. The facts considered in determining the offering price were our financial condition and prospects, our limited operating history and the general condition of the securities market.

Although our ordinary shares are not currently listed or quoted for trading on any national securities exchange or national quotation system, we intend to apply for listing of our ordinary shares on a national major share exchange.  There can be no assurance that such application will be approved.

In addition, there is no assurance that our ordinary shares will trade at market prices in excess of the initial offering price as prices for the ordinary shares in any public market which may develop will be determined in the marketplace and may be influenced by many factors, including the depth and liquidity.

SELLING SHAREHOLDERS

This prospectus relates to the resale by the selling shareholders named below from time to time of up to a total of 4,757,537ordinary shares that were issued or are issuable to selling shareholders pursuant to transactions exempt from registration under the Securities Act. All of the ordinary shares offered by this prospectus are being offered by the selling shareholders for their own accounts.

On December 15, 2010, we completed a private placement transaction with a group of accredited investors.  Pursuant to the Subscription Agreement with the investors, we issued to the investors an aggregate of 222,402 Units for an aggregate purchase price of $6,672,031, or $30.00 per Unit. Each Unit consists of (i) two (2) shares of our Class A 6% convertible Preference Share, each convertible into 7.1305357 ordinary shares, and (ii) a Warrant to purchase 7.1305357 ordinary shares.  The Warrants have a term of 5 years, bear an exercise price of $3.16 per share (subject to customary adjustments), are exercisable on a net exercise or cashless basis and are exercisable by investors at any time after the closing date.

Pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, we are obligated to file a registration statement covering the resale of the ordinary shares underlying the Preference Shares and the Warrants no later than sixty (60) days following the closing date and use our best efforts to cause the registration statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as possible, but in no event later than 180 days following the closing date.  Under the Subscription Agreement, if we did not timely file the required registration statement, or if it is not declared effective by the SEC in a timely manner, then we are obligated to pay to each investor a liquidated damages fee of 1% of such investor’s investment per month. However, such liquidated damages payable in the event that the registration statement is not declared effective by the required date will be waived, provided that (1) we have responded to all SEC comments on the registration statement and its amendments within twenty (20) business days of their respective receipt, which shall be extended to thirty (30) business days if the SEC response cannot be submitted because we are required to provide updated financial statements pursuant to Regulation S-X; and (2) if we are current with the filing of all of our periodic reports under the Exchange Act.

The following table sets forth certain information regarding the selling shareholders and the shares offered by them in this prospectus. Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC. In computing the number of shares beneficially owned by a selling shareholder and the percentage of ownership of that selling shareholder, ordinary shares underlying the Preference Shares and Warrants held by that selling shareholder that are convertible or exercisable, as the case may be, within 60 days of October 11, 2011 are included. Those shares, however, are not deemed outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other selling shareholder. Each selling shareholder’s percentage of ownership in the following table is based upon 27,951,700 ordinary shares outstanding as of October 11, 2011.

Except Access American Fund, LP and its afflicates, none of the selling shareholders has held a position as an officer or director of the Company, nor has any material relationship of any kind with us or any of our affiliates.  All information with respect to share ownership has been furnished by the selling shareholders. The ordinary shares being offered are being registered to permit public secondary trading of the shares and the selling shareholders may offer all or part of the ordinary shares owned for resale from time to time. In addition, none of the selling shareholders has any family relationships with our officers, directors or controlling shareholders. Furthermore, no selling shareholder is a registered broker-dealer or an affiliate of a registered broker-dealer.

The term “selling shareholders” also includes any transferees, pledges, donees, or other successors in interest to the selling shareholders named in the table below. To our knowledge, subject to applicable community property laws, each person named in the table has sole voting and investment power with respect to the ordinary shares set forth opposite such person’s name. We will file a supplement to this prospectus (or a post-effective amendment hereto, if necessary) to name successors to any named selling shareholder who is able to use this prospectus to resell the securities registered hereby.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

The selling shareholders may, from time to time, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any or all of their ordinary shares or interests in the ordinary shares on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. These dispositions may be at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market price, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at negotiated prices.

The selling shareholders may use any one or more of the following methods when disposing of shares or interests therein:

The aggregate proceeds to the selling shareholders from the sale of the ordinary shares offered by them will be the purchase price of the ordinary shares less discounts or commissions, if any. Each of the selling shareholders reserves the right to accept and, together with their agents from time to time, to reject, in whole or in part, any proposed purchase of ordinary shares to be made directly or through agents. We will not receive any of the proceeds from this offering.

Broker-dealers engaged by the selling shareholders may arrange for other broker-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the selling shareholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchase of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated. The selling shareholders do not expect these commissions and discounts to exceed what is customary in the types of transactions involved, and in no case will the maximum compensation received by any broker-dealer exceed eight percent (8%).

Any underwriters, agents, or broker-dealers, and any selling shareholders who are affiliates of broker dealers that participate in the sale of the ordinary shares or interests therein may be “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act.  Any discounts, commissions, concessions or profit they earn on any resale of the shares may be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. Selling shareholders who are “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. We know of no existing arrangements between any of the selling shareholders and any other shareholder, broker, dealer, underwriter, or agent relating to the sale or distribution of the shares, nor can we presently estimate the amount, if any, of such compensation. See “Selling shareholders” for description of any material relationship that a shareholder has with us and the description of such relationship.

To the extent required, the shares of our ordinary shares to be sold, the names of the selling shareholders, the respective purchase prices and public offering prices, the names of any agents, dealer or underwriter, any applicable commissions or discounts with respect to a particular offer will be set forth in an accompanying prospectus supplement or, if appropriate, a post-effective amendment to the registration statement that includes this prospectus.

In order to comply with the securities laws of some states, if applicable, the ordinary shares may be sold in these jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the ordinary shares may not be sold unless it has been registered or qualified for sale or an exemption from registration or qualification requirements is available and is complied with.

We have advised the selling shareholders that the anti-manipulation rules of Regulation M under the Exchange Act may apply to sales of shares in the market and to the activities of the selling shareholders and their affiliates. In addition, we will make copies of this prospectus (as it may be supplemented or amended from time to time) available to the selling shareholders for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The selling shareholders may indemnify any broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving the sale of the shares against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.

We have agreed to pay certain fees and expenses incurred by us incident to the registration of the shares. Such fees and expenses are estimated to be $66,355.1. We have agreed to indemnify the selling shareholders against liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act and state securities laws, relating to the registration of the shares offered by this prospectus.

We have agreed with the selling shareholders to keep the registration statement of which this prospectus constitutes a part effective until the earlier of (1) such time as all of the shares covered by this prospectus have been disposed of pursuant to and in accordance with the registration statement or (2) the date on which the shares may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act.

Ordinary Shares

General. All the issued and outstanding ordinary shares are fully paid and non-assessable. Our ordinary shares are not entitled to any sinking fund or pre-emptive rights. As of the date of this prospectus, there are 27,951,700 ordinary shares issued and outstanding.

Dividends. The holders of our ordinary shares are entitled to such dividends as may be declared or paid by our board of directors subject to our memorandum of association and articles of association and the Companies Law. No dividend may be declared or paid unless our directors determine that immediately after the payment, we will be able to satisfy our liabilities as they become due in the ordinary course of business, and we have funds lawfully available for such purpose.

Voting Rights. The holders of our ordinary shares have identical rights, as provided by our Articles. General meetings of shareholders are expected to be held annually and may be convened by the board of directors as it may consider necessary or desirable or upon a written request of one or more shareholders entitled to attend and vote at general meetings of our company who in the aggregate hold not less than 10% of our voting share capital. If the board of directors does not convene a requisitioned meeting within 21 days of the deposit of the requisition (such meeting to be convened no less than 30 days from the date of the deposit of the requisition),  the requisitionists may themselves convene the general meeting.

A quorum for a general meeting of shareholders is considered present if there is one or more shareholders entitled to vote and present in person or by proxy holding in aggregate at least 50% of our voting share capital. If a quorum is not present within half an hour after the time appointed for the general meeting, the general meeting shall stand adjourned to the same day in the next week at the same time and place. If at such adjourned general meeting a quorum is not present within half an hour from the time appointed for holding the general meeting, the shareholder or shareholders present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote shall be a quorum and may transact the business for which the general meeting was called.

An ordinary resolution to be passed by the shareholders requires the affirmative vote of a simple majority of the votes attaching to our shares cast in a general meeting, while a special resolution requires the affirmative vote of no less than two-thirds of the votes cast attaching to our shares. Pursuant to the Companies Law, special resolution is required for important matters such as amending the memorandum of association and articles of association, effecting a change of name, and winding up. Holders of our shares may affect certain changes by ordinary resolution, including appointing and removing directors.

Transfer of Shares. Subject to our memorandum of association and articles of association, as applicable, any of our shareholders may transfer all or any of his or her ordinary shares by an instrument of transfer in the usual or common form or any other form approved by our board. Our board of directors may, in its absolute discretion, decline to register any transfer of any ordinary share for any or no reason. If our directors refuse to register a transfer, they shall, within two months after the date on which the instrument of transfer was lodged, send to the transferee notice of such refusal. The registration of transfers may be suspended at such times and for such periods as our board of directors may from time to time determine; provided, however, that the registration of transfers shall not be suspended for more than 45 days.  Our directors may provide that the register of shareholders shall be closed for transfers for a stated period not to exceed in any case 40 days.

Liquidation. On a return of capital on winding up or otherwise (other than on conversion, redemption or purchase of shares), after payment in full of the amounts required to be paid to creditors and holders of any issued and outstanding Preference Shares, if any, all holders of ordinary shares are entitled to receive such distribution in proportion to the capital paid-up, or which ought to have been paid-up, at the commencement of the winding up on the Shares held by them respectively.

Redemption of Ordinary Shares. Ordinary shares are not redeemable but, subject to the provisions of the Companies Law, we may issue shares on terms that are subject to redemption, at our option or at the option of the holders, on such terms and in such manner as may be determined pursuant to our Articles.

Variations of Rights of Shares. All or any of the special rights attached to any class of shares may, subject to the provisions of the Companies Law, be varied either with the written consent of the holders of two-thirds of the issued shares of that class or with the sanction of a special resolution passed at a general meeting of the holders of the shares of that class.

Inspection of Books and Records. Holders of our ordinary shares have no general right under Cayman Islands law to inspect or obtain copies of our list of shareholders or our corporate records (other than our memorandum of association and articles of association). However, we provide our shareholders with annual audited financial statements.

Directors. Unless the shareholders otherwise decide by ordinary resolution, the minimum number of directors is one, and the maximum number is unlimited. . Our board has the power at any time to appoint a person as a director either to fill a casual vacancy or as an addition to the existing board subject to the maximum number (if any) imposed by our shareholders by ordinary resolution. A director may be removed from office, with or without cause, by an ordinary resolution of shareholders. A meeting of directors is duly constituted if, (i) we have two or more directors and at the commencement of the meeting, there are present, in person or by proxy, two directors (unless a different quorum has otherwise been fixed by our board) or (ii) we have less than two directors and at the commencement of the meeting, there are present, in person or by proxy, one director (unless a different quorum has otherwise been fixed by our board).

Preemption Rights. Holders of our ordinary shares do not have preemptive rights with respect to our ordinary shares.

Preference Shares

On December 15, 2010, our board designated 700,000 shares of our Preference Shares, par value $0.000128 per share, as “Class A 6% Convertible Preference Shares” (which we refer to herein as the Preference Shares). As of the date of this prospectus, there are 444,804 Preference Shares issued and outstanding, convertible into 3,171,691 ordinary shares. A summary of the Preference Shares is set forth below:

Ranking. With respect to rights upon liquidation, winding-up or dissolution, the Preference Shares rank senior to our ordinary shares and any other classes or series of stock of the Company not designated as ranking senior to or pari passu with the Preference Shares.

Voting. The holders of the Preference Shares will be entitled to receive notice of, attend at and vote at any general meeting or to vote on any written resolutions of shareholders on an “as converted” basis, together with the ordinary shares, as a single class, in connection with any proposal submitted to our shareholders.

Conversion and Mandatory Conversion. All Preference Shares may be converted at the option of the holder at any time after the earlier to occur of (i) the consummation of a 1 for 1.42610714 reverse split on the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of the Company or (ii) February 28, 2011; Additionally, all Preference Shares automatically shall be converted into Ordinary Shares in the event that (i) a registration statement covering all the ordinary shares underlying the Preference Shares has been declared effective by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, and (ii) the Ordinary Shares of the Company are listed and traded on a U.S. senior stock exchange, including New York Stock Exchange, NYSE Amex, Nasdaq Captial Market, Nasdaq Global Market and Nasdaq Global Select (the “Conversion”). On a Conversion, each Preference Share shall convert into 7.1305357 Ordinary Shares.

Anti-Dilution. The number of ordinary shares into which each Preference Share may be converted into will be proportionally adjusted in the event of any stock splits, share consolidations or sub-division, bonus share issues, combinations, or equity dividends on ordinary shares. Upon certain reorganizations, reclassifications, mergers, or consolidations, the holders of Preference Shares may convert their shares into the securities or property that they would have been entitled to upon the consummation of such transaction if the holder had converted the Preference Shares immediately prior to such transaction.

Dividends. Each Preference Share will be entitled to receive cumulative dividends at the annual rate of six percent (6%) accruing on a daily basis on the purchase price of the Preference Share. Notwithstanding anything in the Articles, our directors do not need to declare a dividend on the Preference Shares and any dividend on the Preference Shares shall become a debt due from and immediately payable by our company to the holders of Preference Shares on January 1 in each year if such debt can lawfully arise on such date or otherwise as soon afterwards as such debt can lawfully arise. Such dividends will be payable in cash annually on January 1 beginning with the first such date after April 14, 2010. If the six percent (6%) dividend is not timely paid in full, any such unpaid dividend amount will be increased by 6% per year, accruing on a daily basis.

Liquidation. In the event of the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, the holders of the Preference Shares then outstanding will be entitled to receive, out of the assets of the Company available for distribution to its shareholders, an amount equal to the amount credited as paid up on the Preference Shares plus any dividend arrears and plus accrued but unpaid dividends, before any payment shall be made or any assets distributed to the holders of the ordinary shares or any other class or series of stock issued by the Company not designated as ranking senior to or pari passu with the Preference Shares in respect of the right to participate in distributions or payments upon a liquidation event.

Warrant

In connection with our private placement which was closed on December 15, 2010, we issued the Warrants to purchase in aggregate 1,585,846 ordinary shares. The Warrants have a term of five years with an exercise price of $3.16 per share and are exercisable by investors on a net exercise or cashless basis at any time after the closing date.
 
 
23

 
 
The number of ordinary shares to be received upon the exercise of the Warrants and the exercise price of the Warrants are subject to adjustment for reverse and forward stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations, reclassification, reorganization as described in the Form of Warrant and other similar transactions of the common stock that occur after the closing Date.

The Warrants may be called up to one hundred percent (100%) of this Warrant by providing the holder of the Warrants written notice if the per share market value of the ordinary shares is equal to or greater than $10.00 (as may be adjusted for any stock splits or combinations of the Ordinary Shares) for a period of third (30) consecutive Trading Days, provided, that a registration statement under the Securities Act providing for the resale of the Warrant Shares is in effect from the date of delivery of the call notice until the date which is the later of (A) the date the Holder exercises the Warrant pursuant to the call notice and (B) the 10th Trading Day after the holder receives the call notice.

As of the date of this prospectus, none of the above warrants have been exercised.

Corporate Law

The Companies Law differs from laws applicable to U.S. corporations and their shareholders. Set forth below is a summary of the significant differences between the provisions of the Companies Law applicable to us and the laws applicable to companies incorporated in the United States and their shareholders.

Director Independence

Neither Cayman Islands law nor our Articles require that a majority of our directors be independent. As a matter of Cayman Islands law, a director of a Cayman Islands company is in the position of a fiduciary with respect to the company, and therefore it is considered that he owes certain fiduciary duties to the company including the following: (i) a duty to act bona fide in the best interests of the company, (ii) a duty to exercise the powers of the company for a proper purpose, (iii) a duty not to make a profit based on his position as director (unless the company permits him or her to do so) and (iv) a duty not to put himself or herself in a position where the interests of the company conflict with his or her personal interest or his or her duty to a third party. Our Articles permit our directors to have such a conflict and to participate and vote in respect of any decision in which they may have a conflict, provided their conflicting interests are adequately disclosed. This does not modify the directors’ duty to act in a way they consider to be bona fide in the best interests of the Company.

A director of a Cayman Islands company also owes to the company a common law duty to act with reasonable skill and care. It was previously considered that a director need not exhibit in the performance of his duties a greater degree of skill than may reasonably be expected from a person of his knowledge and experience. However, English and Commonwealth courts have moved towards a dual objective/subjective standard with regard to the required skill and care, to the effect that a director must exercise the skill and care of a reasonably diligent person having both (a) the general knowledge, skill and experience that may reasonably be expected of a person carrying out the same actions as are carried out by that director in relation to the company and (b) the general knowledge, skill and experience that that particular director has. These English and Commonwealth court case authorities are persuasive authority to the Cayman Islands courts although not directly binding on the Cayman Islands courts.

Restrictions on Nonresident or Foreign Shareholders

Under Cayman Islands law, there are no limitations on the rights of nonresident or foreign shareholders to hold or vote our ordinary shares.

Anti-Money Laundering — Cayman Islands

In order to comply with legislation or regulations aimed at the prevention of money laundering, we may adopt and maintain anti-money laundering procedures, and we may require shareholders to provide evidence to verify their identity and source of funds. Where permitted, and subject to certain conditions, we may also delegate the maintenance of our anti-money laundering procedures (including the acquisition of due diligence information) to a suitable person.

We reserve the right to request such information as is necessary to verify the identity of a shareholder unless in the particular case we are satisfied that an exemption applies under the Money Laundering Regulations (2010 Revision) of the Cayman Islands, as amended and revised from time to time, or the Regulations. Depending on the circumstances of each application, a detailed verification of identity might not be required where:

·  
the shareholder makes the payment for their investment from an account held in the applicant’s name at a recognized financial institution; or

·  
the shareholder is regulated by a recognized regulatory authority and is based or incorporated in, or formed under the law of, a recognized jurisdiction; or
 
 
24

 
 
The purchase of shares is made through an intermediary which is regulated by a recognized regulatory authority and is based in or incorporated in, or formed under the law of a recognized jurisdiction, and an assurance is provided in relation to the procedures undertaken on the underlying investors.

For the purposes of these exceptions, recognition of a financial institution, regulatory authority or jurisdiction will be determined in accordance with the Regulations by reference to those jurisdictions recognized by the Cayman Islands Monetary Authority as having equivalent anti-money laundering regulations.

In the event of delay or failure on the part of a shareholder in producing any information required for verification purposes, we may refuse to accept the application, in which case any funds received will be returned without interest to the account from which they were originally debited.

We also reserve the right to refuse to make any redemption payment to a shareholder if our directors suspect, or are advised that, the payment of redemption proceeds to such shareholder might result in a breach of applicable anti-money laundering or other laws or regulations by any person in any relevant jurisdiction, or if such refusal is considered necessary or appropriate to ensure the compliance by us with any such laws or regulations in any applicable jurisdiction.

If any person resident in the Cayman Islands knows or suspects, or has reasonable grounds for knowing or suspecting, that another person is engaged in criminal conduct or is involved with terrorism or terrorist property, and the information for that knowledge or suspicion came to their attention in the course of business in the regulated sector, the person will be required to report such knowledge or suspicion to (i) the Financial Reporting Authority of the Cayman Islands, pursuant to the Proceeds of Crime Law, 2008 of the Cayman Islands, if the disclosure relates to criminal conduct or money laundering, or (ii) a police officer of the rank of constable or higher pursuant to the Terrorism Law (2009 Revision) of the Cayman Islands, if the disclosure relates to involvement with terrorism or terrorist financing and property. Such a report shall not be treated as a breach of confidence or of any restriction upon the disclosure of information imposed by any enactment or otherwise.

Squeeze-out Provisions

When a takeover offer is made and accepted by holders of not less than 90% in value of the shares to whom the offer is made within four months, the offeror may, within a two-month period, require the holders of the remaining shares to transfer such shares on the terms of the offer. An objection from the dissenting shareholder can be made to the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands.

Shareholders’ Suits

Derivative actions have been brought in the Cayman Islands courts, and the Cayman Islands courts have confirmed the availability of such actions. In most cases, we will be the proper plaintiff in any claim based on a breach of duty owed to us, and a claim against our officers or directors generally may not be brought by a shareholder. However, based on English authorities, which would in all likelihood be of persuasive authority and may be applied by a court in the Cayman Islands, exceptions to the foregoing principle include:

·  
a company is acting, or proposing to act, illegally or beyond the scope of its authority;

·  
those who control the company are perpetrating a “fraud on the minority.”

A shareholder may have a direct right of action against us where the individual rights of that shareholder have been infringed or are about to be infringed.

Our independent stock transfer agent is Corporate Stock Transfer, located in 3200 Cherry Creek Dr. South, Suite 430, Denver, Co 80209. Their phone number is (303) 282-4800.

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Please note that the information provided below relates to the combined enterprises after the acquisition of Wealth Environmental Protection, except that information relating to periods prior to the date of the reverse acquisition only relate to Wealth Environmental Protection and its consolidated subsidiaries unless otherwise specifically indicated.

Overview

We are a leading producer and distributer of water purifying agent and high-performance aluminate calcium (HAC) powder, the core component of water purifying agent.

Jiangmen Wealth Water, our PRC Operating Company, is solely engaged in the production and sale of water purifying agents, while Guizhou Yufeng and Shanxi Wealth, the subsidiaries of Jiangmen Wealth Water, specialize in the production and sale of HAC powder. The major raw material of our water purifying agent is HAC powder, exclusively supplied by Guizhou Yufeng , our PRC Operating Company. Guizhou Yufeng manufactures HAC powder using the raw materials of aluminum ore and limestone from its own mines. While selling HAC powder to third party customers, it prioritizes the supply to Jiangmen Wealth Water over third party customers and ensures that its supply meets the demand of Jiangmen Wealth Water before products being sold to other customers.

Jiangmen Wealth Water’s self-owned production facilities are located in Jiangmen City, Guangdong Province, in southeast China, covering an aggregate area of 36.84 mu (approximately 264,361.63 square feet). To expand our sales network and avoid high transportation costs arising from delivery of liquid purifying agent to customers located in different geographic areas, Jiangmen Wealth Water has established production entrustment agreements with 4 water purifying agent production lines located in Zhaoqing City, Guangdong Province, Yibin City, Sichuan Province, Nanchang City, Jiangxi Province and Hangzhou City, Zhejiang Province (individually, the “Entrusted Production Line,” and collectively, the “Entrusted Production Lines”), that solely produce water purifying agent with our raw materials and pursuant to our production guidance and quality control standards.

Our Corporate History and Background

We were organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands on September 27, 2006 as a blank check development stage company formed for the purpose of acquiring an operating business, through a stock exchange, asset acquisition or similar business combination.  On December 15, 2010, we completed a reverse acquisition transaction through a share exchange with Wealth Environmental Protection whereby we acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Wealth Environmental Protection. As a result of the reverse acquisition, Wealth Environmental Protection became our wholly-owned subsidiary. As a result of our reverse acquisition of Wealth Environmental Protection, we have assumed the business and operations of Jiangmen Huiyuan with our principle activities engaged in the manufacture of water purifying agents which are distributed in the southern, south-western, mid-eastern, and eastern part of China.

Wealth Environmental Protection was incorporated under the laws of British Virgin Islands on June 3, 2010 to serve as an investment holding company, and Wealth Environmental Technology was incorporated under the laws of Hong Kong by Wealth Environmental Protection on June 18, 2010. Jiangmen Huiyuan was incorporated under the laws of PRC on July 22, 2010, as wholly-owned subsidiary of Wealth Environmental Technology.

In August, 2010, Jiangmen Wealth Environmental Protection Stock Co., Ltd. transferred (i) all its equity interest in Jiangmen Wealth Water to Mr. Minzhuo Tan and Ms. Hongyu Du and (ii) all its equity interest in Guizhou Yufeng to Jiangmen Wealth Water and, Jiangmen Wealth Water became the sole shareholder of Guizhou Yufeng.  In September, 2010, Jiangmen Wealth Environmental Protection Stock Co., Ltd. and other minority shareholders of Shanxi Wealth transferred all their equity interest in Shanxi Wealth to Jiangmen Wealth Water. Upon the completion of the said transfers, Jiangmen Wealth Environmental Protection Stock Co., Ltd. no longer holds has any equity interest in our PRC Operating Companies in the Corporate Structure and Jiangmen Wealth Water therefore became the 62% shareholder of Shanxi Wealth and the remaining 38% equity interest of Shanxi Wealth was held by Mr. Mingzhuo Tan.

On September 29, 2010, Jiangmen Huiyuan entered into a series of contractual agreements with Jiangmen Wealth Water, a company incorporated under the laws of the PRC, and its shareholders, in which Jiangmen Huiyuan effectively assumed management of the business activities of Jiangmen Wealth Water and has the right to appoint all executives and senior management and the members of the board of directors of Jiangmen Wealth Water. The contractual arrangements are comprised of a series of agreements, including an Exclusive Business Cooperation Agreement, Exclusive Option Agreement, Equity Interest Pledge Agreement and Power of Attorney, through which Jiangmen Huiyuan has the right to provide exclusive complete business support and technical and consulting service to Jiangmen Wealth Water for an annual fee in the amount of Jiangmen Wealth Water’s yearly net profits after tax. Additionally, Jiangmen Wealth Water’s shareholders have pledged equity interest in Jiangmen Wealth Water as security for Jiangmen Huiyuan to collect consulting and services fees provided to Jiangmen Wealth Water through an Equity Pledge Agreement. In order to further reinforce Jiangmen Huiyuan’s rights to control and operate Jiangmen Wealth Water, the shareholders of Jiangmen Wealth Water have granted Jiangmen Huiyuan the exclusive right and option to acquire all of their equity interests in Jiangmen Wealth Water through an Exclusive Option Agreement. As all of the companies are under common control, this has been accounted for as a reorganization of entities and the financial statements have been prepared as if the reorganization had occurred retroactively. We have consolidated the operating results, assets and liabilities of Jiangmen Wealth Water within our financial statements.

On December 27, 2010, pursuant to a share transfer agreement between Mr. Tan and Jiangmen Wealth Water, Mr. Tan transferred all of his interest in Shanxi Wealth to Jiangmen Wealth Water. As a result, Jiangmen Wealth Water currently owns a 100% of the equity interest of Shanxi Wealth.

Industry and Market Overview

The annual amount of wastewater discharge in China has increased from 2005 to 2009 at a 2%-3% growth rate per year. In 2009, the amount of wastewater discharge in China reached 58.92 billion tons (Source: Chart of Annual Change of National Wastewater and Major Pollutants Discharge, Page 15 of the State of China’s Environment: 2009, available at http://www.mep.gov.cn/gzfw/xzzx/ ).  Due to deterioration in both water quantity and quality, water resource protection became a concern on the top of the agenda for both the Chinese government and the Chinese public. The Chinese government has adopted regulations and policies listing waste water disposal and drinking water safety as two issues of priority importance for the mid-term and long-term national development plans. The Chinese government is focused on controlling wastewater disposal rates, increasing the wholesome water coverage rate, raising discharge standards for nitrogen and phosphorus, and raising standards for drinking water.

As an expected result from the above-mentioned governmental endeavors, the demand for water purifying products has increased over the years and is expected to continue to increase in the future for a relatively long period of time, considering China’s large population and the severity of China’s current environmental situation. Accordingly, we believe that there will be increasing market need for our water purifying products.

Current Products

Water Purifying Agent

Jiangmen Wealth Water manufactures a variety of water purification products, including dyeing purifying agent, purifying for paper making waste water, purifying agent of phosphorus removal, and discoloring agent, for industries such as printing and dyeing, paper making, municipal wastewater, phosphorus removal, and oil removal from washing water.

Traditional water purifying agents are usually produced for general purposes without tailoring to the needs of particular industrial requirements. Our water purifying agents, on the other hand, are specially developed by our research and development team and the institutions Tongji University and Chongqing University which we work with aiming at satisfying particular industrial situations and requirements. We entered into a technology development agreement with Tongji University in October 2003 (the “Tongji Agreement”) and in pursuant to the agreement we have completed the research and development of the HAC powder which has been used in our water purifying agents. A copy of the Tongji Agreement has been included as Exhibit 10.27 to this prospectus. We have also been working with Chongqing University since 2005 on the research and development of water purifying technology, including developing flocculent for enhanced coagulation for drinking water, and we have not entered into any agreement in connection with such cooperation. With the technologies derived from our research and development, our products has been demonstrated a satisfying performance

·  
Dyeing Purifying Agent: The product is developed for the active dyes, acid dyes and direct dyes of the printing and dyeing wastewater, which is a polymeric flocculant made by a special synthetic polymer technology and added auxiliary decolorization agent. This product has a good decolorization and chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal effects, and is widely used in the treatment process of dyeing industrial wastewater. COD refers to the consumption of oxidizer when using strong oxidizer in water treatment process and indicates the amount of reducing substance in water which are the target to be removed by the purifying agent. COD removal effects refer to the performance of a purifying agent or equipment in removing reducing substance and is considered as an evaluating method of water treatment effect.

·  
Purifying Agent for Paper Making Wastewater: The product is a new inorganic polymer flocculant, specially developed for purifying papermaking wastewater which usually has a high concentration of micro fiber. It not only separates the water from pulp, but also kills the microorganism in the waste water and pulp, thus preventing the wastewater from turning stunk and waste pulp from nigrescence. The water and pulp are recyclable after the treatment.

·  
Purifying Agent for Phosphorus Removal: Purifying agent for phosphorus removal is an inorganic polymer flocculant made by a special synthetic polymer technology with a good phosphorus removal effect for phosphorus-containing industrial and residential wastewater.

·  
Discoloring Agent: The product is cationic organic macromolecular compound with functions of discoloring, flocculating, COD degrading. The special cationic group of the dyeing discoloring agent can combine with the color substance anion group of the wastewater to form a hydrophobic insoluble salt, thereby eliminate the colors, and because of the polymer adsorption bridging role, it also has a great coagulation & sedimentation effect. The decolorization rate to the dyeing water is more than 95 %, the COD removal ratio is from 50% to 85%.

HAC Powder

Our HAC powder has high aluminum content.

We employ HAC powder to produce water purifying agent, while American and European water purifying agent manufacturers use aluminum hydroxide to produce water purifying agents. Aluminum hydroxide provides a similar level of efficiency for water purifying agent but generally has a higher cost than HAC powder. Using HAC powder as our core raw material, we manufacture water purifying agents that we believe possess quality similar to those produced by our American and European counterparts but with cost savings. Those cost savings, in turn, provide us a significant price advantage.

Raw Material and Suppliers

HAC powder is the core ingredient of water purifying agent. In Shanxi and Guizhou provinces, there are abundant bauxite resources. In 2010, we acquired 100% of all the equity interest of Guizhou Yufeng and 100% of the equity interest of Shanxi Wealth. Guizhou Yufeng and Shanxi Wealth each own one bauxite mine and one limestone mine.

·  
Guizhou Yufeng is located in Xinghong Village, Zhazuo Town, Xiuwen County, Guizhou Province, with a business term from March 2005 to April 2018.  It has passed the annual inspection for the years of 2005 through 2010.
·  
Shanxi Wealth is located in Dong Jia Bi Village, Sanquan Town Industrial Zone, Fenyang City of Shanxi Province, with a business term from April 2004 to January 2012. It has passed the annual inspection for the years of 2004 through 2010.

Development of New Technologies

We are developing new technologies to enhance the quality of our current products and to introduce new products based upon our anticipation of the future market needs. We intend to introduce the following products and technologies to the market in the future:

Flocculent for Enhanced Coagulation for Drinking Water

In 2010 the Chinese government raised the standard for drinking water regarding turbidity, organic matter and a number of other indicators. Anticipating the future implementation of the stricter new drink water standard, most Chinese water companies contemplate upgrading their technologies to meet the government’s requirements. Flocculent for enhanced coagulation is widely accepted in the industry as the response to the stricter requirements and solution to the upgrading. To meet the market demands, we are now working with Chongqing University to develop flocculent for enhanced coagulation for drinking water. Currently we are conducting the second round testing of this product and expect to put it on the market in the first half of 2012. We have not entered into any agreement in connection with the cooperation with Chongqing University. We started our cooperation with Chongqing University in 2005 and have not paid considerations to Chongqing University in connection with such cooperation.

HAC Powder with High Purity

We employ HAC powder to produce water purifying agent, while American and European water purifying agent manufacturers use aluminum hydroxide to produce water purifying agents. Aluminum hydroxide provides a similar level of efficiency for water purifying agent but generally has a higher cost than HAC powder. Using HAC powder as our core raw material, we believe our products possess quality similar to the comparable products produced by our American and European counterparts but with lower cost. Those cost savings, in turn, provide us a significant price advantage.

Sewage-source Heat Pump High-speed Water-purifying Technology

The development of renewable energy is among those on the top of the agenda for China’s mid-term and long-term science and technology planning programs. Currently a number of cities in China have used sewage water as conduit for cooling and heating. To meet this market demand, we are performing research on using flocculent and sewage-source heat pump in treating sewage and generating renewable energy. Currently we have completed the initial testing of this technology and are in the process of a second round testing. We expect to apply this technology to our production on a small scale in 2012.

High-concentration Organic Wastewater Treatment

Backed by the joint efforts of our research and development team and Tongji University in Shanghai, PRC, we are able to use the hydrothermal technology to transform organic matter in the wastewater into useful industrial materials such as H2, DME, and C2H5OH. H2 is the chemical formula of hydrogen which is the basic component of many chemicals and is used for combinations of carbinol, artificial petroleum, plastic resin etc. DME is short for DiMethyl Ether which is a basic chemical raw material and due to its specialties in compression, condensation and evaporation it serves a unique role in production of medicine, fuel, pesticides etc. C2H5OH is the chemical formula of ethanol which is mainly used to produce acetaldehyde, diethyl ether, ethyl acetate, ethylamine and to product dyes, paintingand detergent etc.As of the date hereof, we have completed the initial testing of this technology and are in the process of second round testing. We expect to apply this technology to our production in 2013.

Microbial Flocculent

Microbial flocculent is a highly efficient, non-toxic, pollution-free, self-degradable, and broadly applicable new generation of flocculent. It incarnates the latest development in modern biology and water treatment technology, and represents the trend of flocculent development. Our research and development on this subject focuses on wastewater discoloration and industrial water reuse for the food industry. Traditional flocculents have the issue of secondary pollution when used in water treatment process. Therefore, it is meaningful for people’s health and environmental protection to develop a new micro-organic flocculent that is non-toxic, highly active and without secondary pollution. This technology is in an initial testing phase and may have issues of instability and high cost. We expect to market this technology on a small scale in 2014.

Aluminum Recovery Technology

Aluminum salt is widely used in water treatment processes, but chemical sludge generated in this process usually contains a high percentage of aluminum that is not effectively utilized. We are working on the aluminum recovery technology to save aluminum resources and avoid secondary pollution. We are in the process of initial testing of this technology and expect to apply this technology to our production in 2015.

Research & Development Activities

We have incurred costs in estimated amounts of $147,900 and $130,500 in conducting research and developing new products and technology for 2010 and 2009. We believe that such expenditures do not meet the requirements to be classified as research and development costs under ASC 730.

Research and development is critical to our business development. We have built a strong independent research team that includes 5 members with Ph.D. degrees, and 20 members with M.A. degrees. We have sophisticated laboratory facilities covering 1,000 square meters of land (1 square meter ≈ 10.78 square feet). The subjects of our research include, among others, HAC powder, bio-flocculent, industrial waste water purifying agent.

In addition to our independent research, we also collaborate with renowned research institutes in developing water purifying agents and other environment protection products. For example, we work with the College of Environmental Science and Engineering of Tongji Unviersity in setting up a post-doctoral research center focused on developing pollution prevention technology; and we work with Chongqing University on several environment-related research projects. Through collaboration with these institutions, we have further bolstered the research ability of our research and development team, expanded our experimental experience, and we expect to maintain our position in the water purifying industry in China.

Sales Network and Sales Model

Water Purifying Agent

Our current sales network of water purifying agent covers, four geographic areas of China, including the Southwest, South, Central, East of China. These geographic regions include some of the most developed economic areas in China and, accordingly, the local governments pay great attention to environmental issues, such as purifying waste water. We adopt a “regional production and sales” model with each of our self-owned production facilities in Jiangmen City, Guangdong Province, and the four Entrusted Production Lines responsible for meeting the market demand within its covered selling areas in order to minimize transportation costs.

HAC Powder

Given that preservation and delivery of HAC powder does not generate high transportation costs compared to delivery of liquid water purifying agent, our sales of HAC powder adopt a “direct distribution” model with Guizhou Yufeng and Shanxi Wealth directly delivering HAC powder to our distribution centers which in turn deliver HAC powder to customers. Currently, we have approximately 6 HAC powder distribution centers covering 13 provinces in China, consisting of Guangdong, Guangxi, Guizhou, Hainan, Henan, Hunan, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Shandong, Sichuan, Tianjin and Yunnan.

Market

Market Opportunity

Currently, China is in the process of rapid economic growth and market reform led by nation-wide industrial development. Unfortunately, following in the footsteps of many mature economies, China’s rapid industrial expansion has brought with it an almost inevitable by-product: industrially generated pollution of water, air and the environment as a whole. It is estimated that approximately 80% of China’s environmental pollution results from industry-produced solid waste, waste water and waste gas emissions. During the 1990’s the degree of and the dangers posed by China’s increasing levels of environmental pollution became widely perceived both inside and outside China, and drew concerns from the Central Chinese Government. A nation-wide awakening to the environmental crisis has pushed the reduction and elimination of waste water and airborne pollutants to matters of priority importance in China’s next five-year economic plan.

With only approximately 2,200 cubic meters per person, or one-fourth the world average, China is a country with limited water resources. Conservation through the improvement of usage efficiency has been the fundamental way to resolve the tension between water supply and demand. China’s very high rate of industrial water consumption (as compared to that of developed countries) demands water conservation and water re-use programs. For example, the industries involved in the discharge of industrial waste water, our principal target market, consume large quantities of water and thereby call for new technology and products to increase efficiency in water usage, reduce water consumption, decrease environmental cleaning costs and thereby avoid possible governmental penalties that arise when they fail to meet one or more standards.

Marketing Plan for the Next Three Years

·  
Expand the distribution coverage of our products.

·  
Establish contract with clients in operating their wastewater treatment systems, and develop long term business relationship by sharing with them our pollution treatment experiences.

·  
Take priority in addressing the market in the severely polluted, economically developed coastal areas, set up local factories for the largest purchasers, and cover the clients in the surrounding area

·  
Establish and develop our presence in the oversea markets. As mentioned above, with access to lower-cost raw materials, we are positioned to compete with European and American companies in the same industry. We may consider acquiring foreign companies in the following years for the purpose of producing and distributing high calcium aluminate powder and water purifying agents locally to achieve cost-efficiency.

Competition

In China, there are various companies producing water purifying agent, which are mainly located in Guangdong, Jiangsu, Shandong, Henan, Shanghai, Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei. Generally speaking, these areas are more economically developed than the rest of the country. Most companies currently in the industry are generally small in scale. Since there has not been any official statistic report issued relating to the water purifying agent industry in China, no quantified description of the competitive conditions in the industry is currently available. Compared to other companies in the industry, our company has a complete production chain from raw material procurement to production and to sales and distribution, strong management team and specialized research and development team. Our management believes that we are in the leading position with respect to both of our products in domestic market of China. Our principle methods of competition are cost saving, scale effect and technology advancement, which methods enable us to gain competitive advantages set forth below.

Competitive Advantages

·  
Cost advantages: In China, we are a high-tech enterprise possessing a complete industrial chain for the production of water purifying agent, with two subsidiaries, one in Guizhou province and the other in Shanxi supplying aluminum and calcium carbonate. At the same time, we have unique technology for high aluminate calcium powder production to decease the cost by approximately 8%.

·  
Scale advantages: We are a leading producer of water purifying agent and high calcium aluminate powder in China, with an annual production and distribution of approximately 240,000 and 180,000 tons of water purifying agent and approximately 230,000 and 180,000 tons of HAC powder for 2010 and 2009. Our operating scale has given us considerable competitive advantage in the aspects of reducing costs and developing new products to accommodate to the ever-evolving demands of the market.

·  
Technological advantages: we are applying our own “special addition” in HAC powder production, improving the traditional process to lower the purchasing and production cost and to enhance the aluminium content and activity. In addition, collaborating with Tongji University, we have spent substantial capital and more than one year developing high purity aluminate calcium production technology. The technology uses a heavy metal separation process to generate a high content of alumina, to meet international standards. The technology lowers production costs by 50 percent when compared to aluminium hydroxide. Customized products: We have developed a series of industry-specific purifying agent to implement targeted treatment for different type of water qualities, which produce a better effect than universal products and can reduce water treatment cost by 20 percent or more per ton.

Our employees are not represented by any collective bargaining agreement, and we have never experienced a work stoppage. We believe we have good relations with our employees.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are currently not involved in any litigation that we believe could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations. To our knowledge, there is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or by any court, public board, government agency, self-regulatory organization or body pending or, to the knowledge of our executive officers or any of our subsidiaries, threatened against or affecting our company, our ordinary shares, any of our subsidiaries or any of our companies or our company’s subsidiaries’ officers or directors in their capacities as such, in which an adverse decision could have a material adverse effect.

MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

Market Information

There currently is no market for our ordinary shares. We intend to apply for quotation of our ordinary shares on the OTCBB as soon as practicable. However, we cannot assure you that our ordinary shares will be approved for quotation on the OTCBB, or that we will be able to maintain any such quotation.  Even if our ordinary shares are approved for quotation on the OTCBB, we can provide no assurance that a public market for our ordinary shares will materialize.  In addition, an investor may find it difficult to obtain accurate quotations as to the market value of our ordinary shares and trading of our ordinary shares may be extremely sporadic. A more active market for our ordinary shares may never develop. In addition, if we failed to meet the criteria set forth in SEC regulations, various requirements would be imposed by law on broker-dealers who sell our securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors. Consequently, such regulations may deter broker-dealers from recommending or selling our ordinary shares, which may further affect its liquidity and could make it more difficult for us to raise additional capital.

Holders

As of the date of this registration statement, we had 480 shareholders of our ordinary shares and 20 shareholders of our Preference Shares.  This number does not include shares held by brokerage clearing houses, depositories or others in unregistered form.

Dividends

January 3, 2011, the Company declared a dividend payable of $290,072 to Mr. Tan, as consideration of acquiring 38% equity interest of Shainxi Wealth that was owned by Mr. Tan. Except the foregoing, we have not paid any dividends on our ordinary shares since inception. We currently do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future on our ordinary shares, when issued pursuant to this offering. Although we intend to retain our earnings, if any, to finance the exploration and growth of our business, our Board of Directors will have the discretion to declare and pay dividends in the future. Payment of dividends in the future will depend upon our earnings, capital requirements, and other factors, which our Board of Directors may deem relevant.

Securities Authorized for Issuance under Equity Compensation Plans

We do not have in effect any compensation plans under which our equity securities are authorized for issuance.

Penny Stock Regulations

The SEC has adopted regulations which generally define “penny stock” to be an equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share. Our ordinary shares, when and if a trading market develops, may fall within the definition of penny stock and be subject to rules that impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell such securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors (generally those with assets in excess of $1,000,000, or annual incomes exceeding $200,000 individually, or $300,000, together with their spouse).

For transactions covered by these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchase of such securities and have received the purchaser’s prior written consent to the transaction. Additionally, for any transaction, other than exempt transactions, involving a penny stock, the rules require the delivery, prior to the transaction, of a risk disclosure document mandated by the SEC relating to the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must disclose the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and, if the broker-dealer is the sole market-maker, the broker-dealer must disclose this fact and the broker-dealer’s presumed control over the market. Finally, monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks. Consequently, the “penny stock” rules may restrict the ability of broker-dealers to sell our common stock and may affect the ability of investors to sell their common stock in the secondary market.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

This section includes a number of forward-looking statements that reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. Forward-looking statements are often identified by words like believe, expect, estimate, anticipate, intend, project and similar expressions, or words which, by their nature, refer to future events. You should not place undue certainty on these forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from our predictions.

Company Overview

We are a leading manufacturer of water purifying agent in the PRC, specializing in manufacturing and distributing water purifying agent, dehydrating agent, papermaking auxiliary agent, printing and dyeing auxiliary agent, fine chemical materials, textile materials, steel, stainless steel, construction materials, aluminum alloy materials, electrical appliances and fittings, hardware for AC power, air-conditioning equipments, and plastic products. Our products are   distributed in the southern, south-western, mid-eastern, and eastern part of China.

The annual amount of wastewater discharge in mainland China has been on the rise from the years of 2005 to 2010 with a 2%-3% growth rate per year. Due to water deterioration in both quantity and quality, its protection becomes a concern on the top of the agenda for the Chinese government and the Chinese public. The Chinese government has adopted regulations and policies listing waste water disposal and drinking water safety as two issues of priority importance for Chinese mid-term and long-term national development plans. The Chinese government is making every effort to increase the wastewater disposal rate and wholesome water coverage rate, and at the same time raising the discharge standard for organic substances, nitrogen and phosphorus nutrient content, together with the standard for drinking water.  Given the above-mentioned governmental endeavors, the demand for water purifying products has increased over the years and is expected to continue to increase in the future, considering Chinese large population and the severity of China’s current environmental challenges. As a result, we believe that there will be increasing market demand for our water purifying products.

Production Capacity

As of December 31, 2010, the two wholly-owned HAC powder producing subsidiaries of Jiangmen Wealth Water, Guizhou Yufeng and Shanxi Wealth, respectively reach production capability of 100,000 tons and 200,000 tons. As of December 31, 2010, our water purifying agent producing subsidiary, Jiangment Wealth Water, maintains a production capacity between 350,000 and 400,000 tons.

Our management will continue to maintain its current production capacity, and considers the prospect of expanding the production capacity of HAC powder at Guizhou Yufeng and Shanxi Wealth in near future. However, we presently do not have a concrete plan with respect to expansion, and therefore we are not able to estimate capital expenditures associated with expansion with reasonable certainty.

Current Products and Manufacture Facilities

Our major products include water purifying agent and high calcium aluminate powder. As the leading manufacturer of water purifying agent and high calcium aluminate powder in China, for 2010 and 2009we manufactured and distributed approximately 240,000 and 180,000 tons of water purifying agent and approximately 230,000 and 180,000 tons of HAC powder.

We supply water purifying products for industries such as printing and dyeing, paper making, municipal wastewater, phosphorus removal, and oil removal from washing water. We employ high calcium aluminate powder to produce water purifying agent, while American and European water purifying agent manufacturers use higher-cost aluminium hydroxide.  Aided by our unique and advanced technologies, the quality of our water purifying agent is similar to that produced by our American and European counterparts, and better than the products of most of our Chinese competitors.  The cost of using HAC powder as raw material is only half of that of aluminum hydroxide, which gives Jiangsu Huiyuan a significant price advantage.

Traditional water purifying agents are usually produced for general purposes without tailoring to the needs of particular industrial requirements. Our water purifying agents, on the other hand, are specially developed by our research and development team and the institutions which we work with aiming at satisfying particular industrial situations and requirements. As a result, our products usually have better water purifying effects than other more general products and require less amount of post-sale services. The unique character and strength of our product have been widely acknowledged by our customers over our history of business.

Recent Events

On December 15, 2010, we also completed a private placement transaction with a group of accredited investors.

Critical Accounting Policies, Estimates and Assumptions

The SEC defines critical accounting policies as those that are, in management’s view, most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and those that require significant judgments and estimates.

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates including the allowance for doubtful accounts, the salability and recoverability of inventory, income taxes and contingencies. We base our estimates on historical experience and on other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form our basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

We cannot predict what future laws and regulations might be passed that could have a material effect on our results of operations. We assess the impact of significant changes in laws and regulations on a regular basis and update the assumptions and estimates used to prepare our financial statements when we deem it necessary.

Revenue recognition.  We recognize revenue from the sales of products. Sales are recognized when the following four revenue criteria are met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the selling price is fixed or determinable, and collectivity is reasonably assured. Sales revenue is presented net of value added tax (VAT), sales rebates and returns. No return allowance is made as product returns are insignificant based on historical experience.

Allowance for doubtful accounts. In estimating the collectability of accounts receivable we analyze historical write-offs, changes in our internal credit policies and customer concentrations when evaluating the adequacy of our allowance for doubtful accounts. Differences may result in the amount and timing of expenses for any period if we make different judgments or use different estimates. Our accounts receivable represent a significant portion of our current assets and total assets. Our realization on accounts receivable, expressed in terms of United States dollars may be affected by fluctuations in currency rates since the customer’s currency is frequently a currency other than United States dollars.

Inventories. Inventories comprise raw materials, work-in-progress, and finished goods are stated at the lower of cost or market. Substantially all inventory costs are determined using the weighted average basis. Costs of finished goods include direct labor, direct materials, and production overhead before the goods are ready for sale. Inventory costs do not exceed net realizable value.

Taxation

Cayman Islands

The Government of the Cayman Islands does not, under existing legislation, impose any income, corporate or capital gains tax, estate duty, inheritance tax, gift tax or withholding tax upon us or our shareholders. The Cayman Islands are not party to a double tax treaty with any country that is applicable to any payments made to or by us.

We have received an undertaking from the Governor-in-Cabinet of the Cayman Islands that, in accordance with section 6 of the Tax Concessions Law (1999 Revision) of the Cayman Islands, for a period of 20 years from 10 October, 2006 no law which is enacted in the Cayman Islands imposing any tax to be levied on profits, income, gains or appreciations shall apply to us or our operations and, in addition, that no tax to be levied on profits, income, gains or appreciations or which is in the nature of estate duty or inheritance tax shall be payable (i) on or in respect of our shares, debentures or other obligations or (ii) by way of the withholding in whole or in part of a payment of dividend or other distribution of income or capital by us to our shareholders or a payment of principal or interest or other sums by us due under a debenture or other obligation.

Hong Kong

Our indirect subsidiary, Wealth Environmental Technology, was incorporated in Hong Kong and under the current laws of Hong Kong, is subject to Profits Tax of 16.5%. No provision for Hong Kong Profits Tax has been made as Wealth Environmental Technology has no taxable income.

China

Before the implementation of the New EIT Law, FIEs established in the PRC, unless granted preferential tax treatments by the PRC government, were generally subject to an earned income tax, or EIT, rate of 33%, which included a 30% state income tax and a 3% local income tax. On March 16, 2007, the National People’s Congress of China passed the New EIT Law, and on November 28, 2007, the State Council of China passed the EIT Law Implementing Rules which took effect on January 1, 2008. The EIT Law and its implementing rules impose a unified EIT of 25% on all domestic-invested enterprises and FIEs, unless they qualify under certain limited exceptions.

In addition to the changes to the current tax structure, under the New EIT Law, an enterprise established outside of China with “de facto management bodies” within China is considered a resident enterprise and will normally be subject to an EIT of 25% on its global income. The implementing rules define the term “de facto management bodies” as “an establishment that exercises, in substance, overall management and control over the production, business, personnel, accounting, etc., of a Chinese enterprise.” If the PRC tax authorities subsequently determine that we should be classified as a resident enterprise, then our organization’s global income will be subject to PRC income tax of 25%. For detailed discussion of PRC tax issues related to resident enterprise status, see “Risk Factors – Risks Related to Our Business – Under the New Enterprise Income Tax Law, we may be classified as a “resident enterprise” of China contained in our Current Report on Form 8-K dated December 15, 2010, as amended. Such classification will likely result in unfavorable tax consequences to us and our non-PRC shareholders.
 
 
48

 
 
In addition, the New EIT Law and its implementing rules generally provide that a 10% withholding tax applies to China-sourced income derived by non-resident enterprises for PRC enterprise income tax purposes unless the jurisdiction of incorporation of such enterprises’ shareholder has a tax treaty with China that provides for a different withholding arrangement. In this regard, we expect that 10% withholding tax will apply to dividends paid to Wealth Environmental Technology by Jiangmen Huiyuan.

Our future effective income tax rate depends on various factors, such as tax legislation, the geographic composition of our pre-tax income and non-tax deductible expenses incurred. Our management carefully monitors these legal developments and will timely adjust our effective income tax rate when necessary.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 In August 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-05, Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value, which provides additional guidance on how companies should measure liabilities at fair value under ASC 820. The ASU clarifies that the quoted price for an identical liability should be used. However, if such information is not available, a entity may use, the quoted price of an identical liability when traded as an asset, quoted prices for similar liabilities or similar liabilities traded as assets, or another valuation technique (such as the market or income approach). The ASU also indicates that the fair value of a liability is not adjusted to reflect the impact of contractual restrictions that prevent its transfer and indicates circumstances in which quoted prices for an identical liability or quoted price for an identical liability traded as an asset may be considered level 1 fair value measurements.  The ASU is effective October 1, 2009. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard, but would not expect it to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial condition.

In September 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-12, Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent), that amends ASC 820 to provide guidance on measuring the fair value of certain alternative investments such as hedge funds, private equity funds and venture capital funds. The ASU indicates that, under certain circumstance, the fair value of such investments may be determined using net asset value (NAV) as a practical expedient, unless it is probable the investment will be sold at something other than NAV. In those situations, the practical expedient cannot be used and disclosure of the remaining actions necessary to complete the sale is required. The ASU also requires additional disclosures of the attributes of all investments within the scope of the new guidance, regardless of whether an entity used the practical expedient to measure the fair value of any of its investments. This ASU is effective October 1, 2009. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard, but would not expect it to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial condition.

In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-13, Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements—a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force, that provides amendments to the criteria for separating consideration in multiple-deliverable arrangements. As a result of these amendments, multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements will be separated in more circumstances than under existing U.S. GAAP. The ASU does this by establishing a selling price hierarchy for determining the selling price of a deliverable. The selling price used for each deliverable will be based on vendor-specific objective evidence if available, third-party evidence if vendor-specific objective evidence is not available, or estimated selling price if neither vendor-specific objective evidence nor third-party evidence is available. A vendor will be required to determine its best estimate of selling price in a manner that is consistent with that used to determine the price to sell the deliverable on a standalone basis. This ASU also eliminates the residual method of allocation and will require that arrangement consideration be allocated at the inception of the arrangement to all deliverables using the relative selling price method, which allocates any discount in the overall arrangement proportionally to each deliverable based on its relative selling price. Expanded disclosures of qualitative and quantitative information regarding application of the multiple-deliverable revenue arrangement guidance are also required under the ASU. The ASU does not apply to arrangements for which industry specific allocation and measurement guidance exists, such as long-term construction contracts and software transactions.  The ASU is effective beginning January 1, 2011. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on the Company’s consolidated results of operations and financial condition.

In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-14, Certain Revenue Arrangements That Include Software Elements—a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force, that reduces the types of transactions that fall within the current scope of software revenue recognition guidance. Existing software revenue recognition guidance requires that its provisions be applied to an entire arrangement when the sale of any products or services containing or utilizing software when the software is considered more than incidental to the product or service. As a result of the amendments included in ASU No. 2009-14, many tangible products and services that rely on software will be accounted for under the multiple-element arrangements revenue recognition guidance rather than under the software revenue recognition guidance. Under the ASU, the following components would be excluded from the scope of software revenue recognition guidance:  the tangible element of the product, software products bundled with tangible products where the software components and non-software components function together to deliver the product’s essential functionality, and undelivered components that relate to software that is essential to the tangible product’s functionality. The ASU also provides guidance on how to allocate transaction consideration when an arrangement contains both deliverables within the scope of software revenue guidance (software deliverables) and deliverables not within the scope of that guidance (non-software deliverables). The ASU is effective beginning January 1, 2011. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on the Company’s consolidated results of operations and financial condition.

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-6, Improving Disclosures About Fair Value Measurements, that amends existing disclosure requirements under ASC 820 by adding required disclosures about items transferring into and out of levels 1 and 2 in the fair value hierarchy; adding separate disclosures about purchase, sales, issuances, and settlements relative to level 3 measurements; and clarifying, among other things, the existing fair value disclosures about the level of disaggregation. This ASU is effective for the first quarter of 2010, except for the requirement to provide level 3 activities of purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements on a gross basis, which is effective beginning the first quarter of 2011. Since this standard impacts disclosure requirements only, its adoption will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial condition.

Three Months and Six Months Ended June 30, 2011 and June 30, 2010:

Revenue:

Revenue increased by $4,097,430 or 33%, to $16,665,595 for three months ended June 30, 2011 from $12,568,165 for the three months ended June 30, 2010, and increased by $11,979,889 or 56% to $33,426,565 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $21,446,676 for the six months ended June 30, 2010 . The increase in revenue for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2011 was primarily due to the increased sales contributed by sale unit price increase, sales generated from new customers and distributers, and overall increase in volume from our existing customers.

Our revenue from sales of water purifying agents for the three months ended June 30, 2011 was $9,642,860 and for the three months ended June 30, 2010 was $6,983,880, representing an increase of $2,658,980 or approximately 38%. Our revenue from sales of water purifying agents for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $18,037,879 and for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was $11,607,983, representing an increase of $6,429,896 or approximately 55%. The increase was due to continuous increase of the sales of our water purifying agents through expansion of our customer base and increased orders from our existing customers.

Our revenue from sales of HAC powder for the three months ended June 30, 2011 was $7,022,735 and for the three months ended June 30, 2010 was $5,584,285, representing an increase of $1,438,450 or approximately 26%. Our revenue from sales of HAC powder was $15,388,686 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and was $9,838,693 for the six months ended June 30, 2010, representing an increase of $5,549,993 or approximately 56%. Our revenues for sales of HAC powder increased at a lower rate in the second quarter of 2011 since we reduced our sales prices in order to better compete with our other competitors.  In the first quarter of 2011, we increased our sales prices which caused the slowdown of our customer orders. Consequently we dropped our prices in second quarter of 2011 in order to regain our customers’ orders. These steps caused our net sales for HAC powder in the second quarter to be less than those in the first quarter of 2011. We expect our sales for HAC powder for the second half of 2011 remain strong.

Cost of Revenue:

Cost of revenue increased by $2,655,358, or 41%, to $9,094,955 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from $6,439,597 for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and increased by $6,497,661, or 58%, to $17,605,145 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $11,107,484 for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The increase in the cost of revenue was mainly due to the increase in sales of our products and was in line with the increase of our revenue.

Cost of revenue from sales of water purifying agents for the three months ended June 30, 2011 were $3,575,188, an increase of $1,002,010 or 39%, from $2,573,178 for the same period in 2010.  Cost of revenue from sales of water purifying agents for the six months ended June 30, 2011 were $6,672,592, an increase of $2,319,253 or 53%, from$4,353,339 for the same period in 2010.  As a percentage of net revenue, cost of revenue from sales of water purifying agents was 37% and 37% for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and 37% and 38% for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The increase of cost of revenue from sales of water purifying agents was primarily attributable to the increase of our revenue from sales of water purifying agents.

Cost of revenue from sales of HAC powder for the three months ended June 30, 2011 were $5,516,767, an increase of $1,650,348 or 43%, from $3,866,419 for the same period in 2010.   Cost of revenue from sales of HAC powder for the six months ended June 30, 2011 were $10,932,553, an increase of $4,178,408 or 62%, from $6,754,145 for the same period in 2010. As a percentage of net revenue, cost of revenue from sales of HAC powder approximated 79% and 69% for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and 71% and 69% for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010. The increase of cost of revenue from sales of HAC powder was primarily attributable to the increase of our revenue from sales of HAC powder.

Gross profit and Gross Profit Margin:

Our gross profit increased by $1,442,072 or 24% to $7,570,640 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from $6,128,568 for the three months ended June 30, 2010, and increased by $5,482,228 or 53% to $15,821,420 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $10,339,192 for the six months ended June 30, 2010. Our gross profit margin (gross profit divided by net revenue) decreased to 45.43% for the three months ended June 30, 2011from 48.76% for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and decreased to 47.33% for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from 48.21% for the three months ended June 30, 2010.  The decrease in gross margin was primarily due to the selling price reduction for the HAC powder in the second quarter of 2011 to better compete with our competitors.  We expect our gross profit margin in the second half of 2011 to be comparable to that in the first half of 2011.

Selling and Marketing Expenses:

Our selling and marketing expenses increased by $165,131or 47% to $514,618 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from $349,487 for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and increased by $363,385 or 55% to $1,022,027 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $658,642 for the six months ended June 30, 2010.   The increase in our selling and marketing expenses in 2011 was primarily attributable to increase in head counts in the sales and marketing department which was in line with the increase of our revenue.

General and Administrative Expenses:

Our general and administrative expenses increased by $319,182 or 40% to $1,115,739 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from $796,557 for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and  increased by $801,870 or 59% to $2,162,337 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $1,360,467 for the six months ended June 30, 2010.  The increase in our general and administrative expenses was primarily attributable to the increase of professional expense as being a public reporting company in United States.   We also increased our head counts as our business continues to grow.

Research and Development Cost:

We incurred $152,786 and $289,745 for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2011 as we engaged an external firm to develop new products in order to continue to launch new products in the future.  We expect to continue to increase our research and development efforts to enhance the competitiveness of our products.

Other income (Expense):

Our interest income increased by $21,303,or 150% to $35,535 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from $14,232 for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and increase by $38,011,or 147% to $63,803 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $25,792 for the six months ended June 30, 2010.  The increase was primarily due to the increase in cash balance in banks as a result of our continuous increase in profits and the private placements took place in December 2010.

Net Income:

Net income increased by $582,020 or 16% to $4,330,345 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from $3,747,325 for the three months ended June 30, 2010, and  increased by $2,982,184 or 48% to $9,241,349 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from $6,259,165 for the six months ended June 30, 2010.   The increase of our net income was primarily due to the strong demand of our products as a result of our marketing efforts while we can continue keep our cost of revenue and other operating costs at the reasonable level.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We had an unrestricted cash balance of approximately $41.8 million as of June 30, 2011, as compared to $33.9 million as of December 31, 2010.  In addition, we also had approximately $870,000 in restricted cash as of June 30, 2011, as compared to $2.3 million as of December 31, 2010. Our restricted cash is held by Access America Investments, LLC as a security deposit for hiring a qualified chief financial officer (“CFO”) and investor relation firm and holding shareholders meeting.   In June 2011, we hired a qualified CFO.  Per further negotiation with Access America Investments, LLC, $750,000 is still held in Escrow for an additional three months from the date of hiring our new CFO.  $120,000 will continue to be held in the Escrow until we engage an Investor Relation firm.

Our funds are kept in financial institutions located in China, and banks and other financial institutions in the PRC, which do not provide insurance for funds held on deposit.  In the event of a bank failure, we may incur loss for our funds on deposit.  In addition, we are subject to the regulations of the PRC, which restrict the transfer of cash from China, except under certain specific circumstances. Accordingly, such funds may not be readily available to us to satisfy obligations that have been incurred outside the PRC.

We had working capital of approximately $44.3 million and $34.0 million as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. The increase of working capital was primarily due to the increase in cash flow generated from our profitable operations.

Our accounts receivable has been a small portion of our current assets, representing $4.6 million and $0.7 million, or 9.5% and 1.7% of current assets, as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.  During the six months ended June 30, 2011, our accounts receivable increased substantially as some of our customers requested longer credit terms from us due to the credit tightening from their banks as part of the China government policy.   If customers responsible for a significant amount of accounts receivable were to become insolvent or otherwise unable to pay for our products, or to make payments in a timely manner, our liquidity and results of operations could be adversely affected. An economic or industry downturn could materially adversely affect the servicing of these accounts receivable, which could result in longer payment cycles, increased collections costs and defaults in excess of management’s expectations. A significant deterioration in our ability to collect on accounts receivable could affect our cash flow and working capital position and could also impact the cost or availability of financing available to us.

We provide our major customers with payment terms ranging from 30 to 90 days. It takes approximately one day to mine our raw materials and deliver the raw materials to our Guizhou and Shangxi facilities. We can manufacture the HAC powder and water purification agent within one day. Therefore the average time from mining the raw materials to completion of our products is approximately 2 days. Depending on the locations of our customers, delivery time ranges between a few hours to three days.  We have frequent communications with our customers about their needs for our products.  Our customers send us purchase orders 2 to 4 weeks prior to the requested delivery dates.   We typically estimate our required raw materials for production at each month end for the following month based on the purchase orders received at month end.  Since our production lead time for HAC powder and purifying agent is very short, we keep relatively small amounts of inventories. We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make required payments. Allowance for doubtful accounts is based on our assessment of the aging of accounts receivable, the collectability of specific customer accounts, our history of bad debts, and the general condition of the industry.

Our aging of accounts receivables could result in our inability to collect receivables requiring us to increase our doubtful accounts reserve, which would decrease our net income and working capital. We experienced no bad debt expense during six months ended June 30, 2011 and the year ended December 31, 2010. As of June 30, 2011, we believed it was appropriate not to recognize bad debt expense primarily due to the subsequent collections made on our receivable balance and our historical ability to collect our accounts receivable. Bad debt expense was $0 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and the year ended December 31, 2010.

Inventories amounted to $1.3 million as of June 30, 2011, as compared to $0.7 million as of December 31, 2010.   Since our mines can provide stable and sufficient supplies of raw materials for our productions and our stable relationship with other suppliers, we have not experienced any shortage in raw materials as our sales continue to grow.  We do not need to maintain large amounts of raw materials.  We might expect to experience increase in our inventory levels in future, including both of raw material and finished goods to meet the market demands.

On December 15, 2010, the Company obtained financing of $6,672,031 in a private placement. We used the proceeds from the private placement to provide working capital, production capacity expansion, technology and product research and development, and basic research and application product development.

We are required to contribute for our employees to the Chinese government’s social insurance funds, including pension insurance, medical insurance, unemployment insurance, job injuries insurance, maternity insurance, and housing provident funds in accordance with relevant regulations. Total contributions to the funds are approximately $402,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2011. We expect that the amount of our contribution to the government’s social insurance funds and housing provident funds will increase in the future as we expand our workforce and operations.  In the years prior to December 31, 2010, we have approximately $300,000 of unpaid social insurance premiums and housing provident funds and potential penalties which are included in the accrued expenses.

The ability of the Company to pay dividends may be restricted due to the foreign exchange control policies and availability of cash balance of the Chinese operating subsidiaries. A majority of our revenue being earned and currency received are denominated in RMB, which is subject to the exchange control regulation in China, and, as a result, we may unable to distribute any dividends outside of China due to PRC exchange control regulations that restrict our ability to convert RMB into US Dollars. Accordingly, the Company’s funds may not be readily available to us to satisfy obligations which have been incurred outside the PRC, which could adversely affect our business and prospects or our ability to meet our cash obligations.

Future Capital Expenditure

In future years, as we accelerate expansion, we expect continued capital expenditure for adding manufacturing equipment, expanding workshops and harbors, and modernizing existing equipment. We believe that such expansion will have a material impact on liquidity, capital resources and/or results of operation.  However, we believe our existing cash, cash equivalents and cash flows from operations and proceeds from the completed financing in December 2010 will be sufficient to meet our presently anticipated future cash needs to bring all of our facilities into full production. We may, however, require additional cash resources due to changed business conditions or other future developments, including any investments or acquisitions we may decide to pursue.
 
It is management’s intention to expand our operations as quickly as reasonably practicable to capitalize on the demand opportunity for our products.  We regularly review our cash funding requirements and attempt to meet those requirements through a combination of cash on hand, cash provided by operations and available borrowings under bank lines of credit.  We believe that we can continue meeting our cash funding requirements for our business in this manner over the next twelve months.

We do not have a present plan with respect to steps to expand our production or a reasonable estimate of the capital expenditures associated with the expansion.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $6.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $7.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The decrease of net cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to an increase of accounts receivable of $3.9 million in 2011 as compared to $877,000 in 2010, an increase of inventories of $540,000 in 2011 as compared to $147,000 in 2010 and increase of accounts payable of $528,000 in 2011 as compared to $1.5 million in 2010, which such effects from operating activities were partially offset by an increase in our net income to $9.2 million in 2011 from $6.3 million in 2010.

Investing activity during the six months ended June 30, 2011 included the purchasing of equipment of approximately $51,000 and releasing of restricted cash of $1.4 million.  During the six months ended June 30, 2010, we purchased equipment of approximately $1,200.

Financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2011 included approximately $291,000 for dividends paid to our chairman and CEO.  During the six months ended June 30, 2010, we received cash of $250,000 related to the execution of the convertible note.

Based upon our present plans, we believe that cash on hand and cash flow from operations will be sufficient to fund our current capital needs. We expect that our primary sources of funding this year will be from cash flow from operations. However, our ability to maintain sufficient liquidity depends partially on our ability to achieve anticipated levels of revenue, while continuing to control our cost of revenue and other operating expenses. If we do not have sufficient cash, we would have to obtain additional debt financing or equity financing through other external sources, which may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all. Failure to maintain financing arrangements on acceptable terms would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Reconciliation of the Effect of Exchange Rates on Cash and Cash Equivalents

Our cash accounts are denominated in RMB and the absolute amount of RMB that we hold is unaffected by the change in the exchange rate of the RMB, our functional currency,  as compared to the US Dollar, our reporting currency. The effect of exchange rate changes on cash represents changes in the value of our cash accounts because the USD to RMB exchange rate has changed during the reporting periods. When the USD declines in value against the RMB, the translation of our financial statements at year end exchange rates yields an increase in the reported amount of cash in USD. A summary of the effect of exchange rates on cash and cash equivalents follows:

Revenue:

Revenue increased by $9,470,599 or 24.30%, from $38,975,961 in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009 to $48,446,560 in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010.

Our revenue from sales of water purifying agents for the twelve months ended December 31, 2010 was $25,764,665 and for the twelve months ended December 31, 2009 was $20,947,376, representing an increase of $4,817,289 or approximately 23%.  This increase in our revenue from sales of water purifying agents was primarily due to (i) increase of sales of water purifying agents from approximately 74,649 tons in 2009 to 104,967 tons in 2010, representing an increase of approximately 40.6%; and (ii) direct sales from 115,255 tons in 2009 to 130,722 tons in 2010.

Our revenue from sales of HAC powder from the twelve months ended December 31, 2010 was $22,681,895 and for the twelve months ended December 31, 2009 was $18,028,585, representing an increase of $4,653,310 or approximately 25.81%. This increase was primarily attributable to (i) increase of sales of agents from approximately 47,711 tons in 2009 to 60,347 tons in 2010, and (ii) direct sales from 133,462 tons in 2009 to 167,717 tons in 2010.

Cost of Goods Sold:

Cost of goods sold increased by $4,325,211, or 20.88%, from $20,703,600 in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009 to $25,028,811 in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010.

Cost of goods sold from sales of water purifying agents for the year ended December 31, 2010 were $9,576,323, an increase of $1,443,228, or 17.75%, from $8,133,095 for the same period in 2009. As a percentage of total net sales, cost of goods sold from sales of water purifying agents 37.17% and 38.83% for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The increase of cost of goods sold from sales of water purifying agents was primarily attributable to the increase of our revenue from sales of water purifying agents.

Cost of goods sold from sales of HAC powder for the year ended December 31, 2010 were $15,452,488 increase of $2,881,983 or 22.93%, from $12,570,505 for the same period in 2009. As a percentage of total net sales, cost of goods sold from sales of HAC powder approximated 68.13% and 69.73% for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The increase of cost of goods sold from sales of water purifying agents was primarily attributable to the increase of our revenue from sales of HAC powder.

Gross profit and Gross Profit Margin:

Our gross profit increased by $5,145,388 or 28.16%, from $18,272,361 in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009 to $23,417,749 in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010. Our gross profit margin (gross profit divided by sales revenue)  increased from 46.88% in 2009 to 48.34% in 2010.

Selling and Marketing Expenses:

Our selling and marketing expenses were $1,522,186 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 as compared to $1,454,054 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, representing an increase of $68,132 or 4.69%. The substantial increase in our selling and marketing expenses in 2009 was primarily attributable to the increase of our sales.

General and Administrative Expenses:

Our general and administrative expenses were $ 3,913,780 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 as compared to $2,251,883 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, representing an increase of $1,661,897 or 73.80%. The increase in our general and administrative expenses was primarily attributable to (i) professional fees related to fund raising and reverse merger by $823,362 and the development of  our business in 2010.

Net Income:

Net income was $11,273,663 in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 with an increase of $316,108 or 2.88% compared to $10,957,555 reported in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009.  The reason that our net income increased slowly is primarily due to the professional fees of $823,362 related to the fund raising and reverse merger, interest expense of $500,000 related to the amortization of discount on the convertible notes, and the common stock issuance of $1,538,856 related to the consulting service incurred in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We had an unrestricted cash balance of approximately $33.9 million as of December 31, 2010, as compared to $12.7 million as of December 31, 2009. In addition, we also had approximately $2.2 million in restricted cash as of December 31, 2010, as compared to $0 million as of December 31, 2009. Our restricted cash is held by AAI as a security deposit for hiring a qualified CFO and IR firm and holding shareholders meeting.  The restricted fund will be released when we meet the requirement above. Our funds are kept in financial institutions located in China, and banks and other financial institutions in the PRC do not provide insurance for funds held on deposit, and in the event of a bank failure, we may not have access to our funds on deposit.  In addition, we are subject to the regulations of the PRC, which restrict the transfer of cash from China, except under certain specific circumstances. Accordingly, such funds may not be readily available to us to satisfy obligations that have been incurred outside the PRC.

We had working capital of approximately $34.0 million and negative working capital of $12.2 million as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The increase of working capital was largely caused by a recent fund raising and positive cash flows generated from our operations.

Our accounts receivable has been a small portion of our current assets, representing $0.7 million and $0.9 million, or 1.7% and 6.3% of current assets, as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. If customers responsible for a significant amount of accounts receivable were to become insolvent or otherwise unable to pay for our products, or to make payments in a timely manner, our liquidity and results of operations could be adversely affected. An economic or industry downturn could materially adversely affect the servicing of these accounts receivable, which could result in longer payment cycles, increased collections costs and defaults in excess of management’s expectations. A significant deterioration in our ability to collect on accounts receivable could affect our cash flow and working capital position and could also impact the cost or availability of financing available to us.

We provide our major customers with payment terms ranging from 30 to 90 days. It takes approximately one day to mine our raw materials and deliver the raw materials to our Guizhou and Shangxi facilities.  We can manufacture the HAC powder and water purification agent within one day.  Therefore the average time from mining the raw materials to completion of our products is approximately 2 days.   Depending on the locations of our customers, delivery time ranges between a few hours to three days.  We have frequent communications with our customers about their needs for our products.  Our customers send us purchase orders 2 to 4 weeks prior to the requested delivery dates.   We typically estimate our required raw materials for production at each month end for the following month based on the purchase orders received at month end. Since our production lead time for HAC powder and purifying agent is very short, we keep relatively small amounts of inventories. We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make required payments. Allowance for doubtful accounts is based on our assessment of the aging of accounts receivable, the collectability of specific customer accounts, our history of bad debts, and the general condition of the industry.

Our aging of accounts receivables could result in our inability to collect receivables requiring us to increase our doubtful accounts reserve, which would decrease our net income and working capital. We experienced no bad debt expense during the year ended December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009. As of December 31, 2010, we believed it was appropriate not to recognize bad debt expense primarily due to the subsequent collections made on our receivable balance and our historical ability to collect our accounts receivable. Bad debt expense was $0 for the year ended December 31, 2010 and 2009.

As of December 31, 2010, inventories amounted to $0.7 million, compared to $0.6 million as of December 31, 2009. We have experienced increased sales volume annually; however, our supplier is steady and we own the mines providing raw materials. We do not need to maintain large amounts of raw materials.  We might expect to experience increase in our inventory levels in future, including both of raw material and finished goods to meet the market demands.

On December 15, 2010,  the Company entered  into a subscription agreement  with a group of accredited investors (the “Subscription Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company issued to the investors an aggregate of 222,402 units, or the Units, for an aggregate purchase price of $6,672,031, or $30.00 per Unit (the “Private Placement”). Each Unit consists of (i) two (2) shares of our Class A 6% convertible Preference Share with each of the Preference Share convertible into 7.1305357  ordinary shares for a total of ten ordinary shares per Unit, and (ii) a Warrant to purchase 7.1305357 ordinary shares at an exercise price of $3.16 per share.  The closing of the Share Exchange was conditioned upon all conditions set forth in the Subscription Agreement being met and the closing of the Private Placement was conditioned upon the closing of the Share Exchange.  As soon as practicable, we shall effectuate a 1: 1.42610714 reverse stock split on all of the ordinary shares issued and outstanding at the closing of the Share Exchange (the “Reverse Split”). We used the proceeds from the Private Placement to provide working capital, production capacity expansion, technology and product research and development,  and basic research and application product development..

We are required to contribute a portion of our employees’ total salaries to the Chinese government’s social insurance funds, including pension insurance, medical insurance, unemployment insurance, and job injuries insurance, and maternity insurance, in accordance with relevant regulations. Total contributions to the funds are approximately $343,192, and $328,359 for the years ended December 31, 2010, and 2009, respectively. We expect that the amount of our contribution to the government’s social insurance funds will increase in the future as we expand our workforce and operations and commence contributions to an employee housing fund.

According to the relevant PRC regulations on housing provident funds, PRC enterprises are required to contribute housing provident funds for their employees. The monthly contributions for Jiangmen City must be at least 5% of each employee’s average monthly income in the previous year. The Company has accrued  such funds for its employees since its establishment and the accumulated unpaid amount is approximately $300,000. Any change with the regulation will impact the Company’s operating results.

The ability of the Company to pay dividends may be restricted due to the foreign exchange control policies and availability of cash balance of the Chinese operating subsidiaries. A majority of our revenue being earned and currency received are denominated in RMB, which is subject to the exchange control regulation in China, and, as a result, we may unable to distribute any dividends outside of China due to PRC exchange control regulations that restrict our ability to convert RMB into US Dollars. Accordingly, the Company’s funds may not be readily available to us to satisfy obligations which have been incurred outside the PRC, which could adversely affect our business and prospects or our ability to meet our cash obligations.

Future Capital Expenditure

In future years, as we accelerate expansion, we expect continued capital expenditure for adding manufacturing equipment, expanding workshops and harbors, and modernizing existing equipment. We believe that such expansion will have a material impact on liquidity, capital resources and/or results of operation. However, we believe our existing cash, cash equivalents and cash flows from operations and proceeds from the completed financing in December 2010 will be sufficient to meet our presently anticipated future cash needs to bring all of our facilities into full production. We may, however, require additional cash resources due to changed business conditions or other future developments, including any investments or acquisitions we may decide to pursue.

It is management’s intention to expand our operations as quickly as reasonably practicable to capitalize on the demand opportunity for our products. However, we presently do not have a concrete plan with respect to expansion, and therefore we are not able to estimate capital expenditures associated with expansion with reasonable certainty.

We regularly review our cash funding requirements and attempt to meet those requirements through a combination of cash on hand, cash provided by operations and available borrowings under bank lines of credit. We believe that we can continue meeting our cash funding requirements for our business in this manner over the next twelve months.

Cash Flow

Net cash provided by operating activities was $16.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2010, compared to net cash used in operating activities of $13.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2009. The increase in net cash provided in operating activities was primarily due to an increase in our sales, collection of trade receivables and accounts payable and other payable. Our increase in net cash provided in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2010 was partially offset by an increase in cash used in inventory.

Investing activity during the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 included the purchasing of equipment and dividend paid to shareholders, which resulted in net cash used in investing activities of $2,300,121 for the year ended December 31, 2010, compared to net cash used in investing activities of $40,637 for the year ended December 31, 2009. The increase in net cash used in investing activities was primarily due to the dividend paid to shareholders in $0.7 million.

Net cash used in financing activities amounted to $6.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2010, compared to net cash used for financing activities of $8.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2009. The change in cash provided by financing activities was primarily due to the closing of the private placement and note payable financing which converted to common shares on December 15, 2010.

Based upon our present plans, we believe that cash on hand and cash flow from will be sufficient to fund our current capital needs. We expect that our primary sources of funding for our operations for this year will result from cash flow from operations to fund our operations during this year. However, our ability to maintain sufficient liquidity depends partially on our ability to achieve anticipated levels of revenue, while continuing to control costs. If we did not have sufficient available cash, we would have to seek additional debt or equity financing through other external sources, which may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all. Failure to maintain financing arrangements on acceptable terms would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Reconciliation of the Effect of Exchange Rates on Cash and Cash Equivalents

Our cash accounts are denominated in RMB and the absolute amount of RMB that we hold is unaffected by the change in the exchange rate of the RMB, our functional currency,  as compared to the US Dollar, our reporting currency. The effect of exchange rate changes on cash represents changes in the value of our cash accounts because the USD to RMB exchange rate has changed during the reporting period. When the USD declines in value versus the RMB, the translation of our financial statements at year end exchange rates yields an increase in the reported amount of cash in USD, and such increase is not attributable to our operations, investing activities or financing activities. This following table sets forth such increase in the reported amount of cash in USD for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010.

Code of Ethics

We currently do not have a code of ethics that applies to our officers, employees and director, including our Chief Executive Officer, however, we are in the process of formulating a code of ethics and intend to adopt one in the near future.

Limitation on Liability and Indemnification Matters

Cayman Islands law does not limit the extent to which a company’s memorandum of association and articles of association may provide for indemnification of officers and directors, except to the extent any such provision may be held by the Cayman Islands courts to be contrary to public policy, such as to provide indemnification against civil fraud or the consequences of committing a crime.

Our memorandum of association and articles of association provides for indemnification of our officers and directors for any liability incurred in their capacities as such, except through their own dishonesty. We have not entered into indemnification agreements with each of our officers and directors which indemnify such individuals to the extent allowable under Cayman Islands law.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the registrant, pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Registrant has been informed that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

The following sets forth information with respect to the compensation awarded or paid to our principal executive officer and the two other highest paid executive officers for all services rendered in all capacities to us and our subsidiaries in fiscal 2010 and 2009.

Policies and Procedures for Review, Approval or Ratification of Transactions with Related Persons

We expect to prepare and adopt a written related-person transactions policy that sets forth our policies and procedures regarding the identification, review, consideration and approval or ratification of “related-persons transactions.” For purposes of our policy only, a “related-person transaction” will be a transaction, arrangement or relationship (or any series of similar transactions, arrangements or relationships) in which we and any “related person” are participants involving an amount that exceeds $120,000. Transactions involving compensation for services provided to us as an employee, director, consultant or similar capacity by a related person will not be covered by this policy. A related person will be any executive officer, director or a holder of more than five percent of our ordinary shares, including any of their immediate family members and any entity owned or controlled by such persons.

We anticipate that, where a transaction has been identified as a related-person transaction, the policy will require management to present information regarding the proposed related-person transaction to our audit committee (or, where approval by our audit committee would be inappropriate, to another independent body of our board of directors) for consideration and approval or ratification. Management’s presentation will be expected to include a description of, among other things, the material facts, the direct and indirect interests of the related persons, the benefits of the transaction to us and whether any alternative transactions are available.

To identify related-person transactions in advance, we are expected to rely on information supplied by our executive officers, directors and certain significant shareholders. In considering related-person transactions, our board of directors will take into account the relevant available facts and circumstances including, but not limited to:

·  
the risks, costs and benefits to us;
·  
the effect on a director’s independence in the event the related person is a director, immediate family member of a director or an entity with which a director is affiliated;
·  
the terms of the transaction;
·  
the availability of other sources for comparable services or products; and
·  
the terms available to or from, as the case may be, unrelated third parties or to or from our employees generally.

We also expect that the policy will require any interested director to excuse himself or herself from deliberations and approval of the transaction in which the interested director is involved.

A “promoter” within the definition of 12b-2 includes (i) any person who, acting alone or in conjunction with one or more other persons, directly or indirectly takes initiative in founding and organizing the business or enterprise of an issuer; or (ii) any person who, in connection with the founding and organizing of the business or enterprise of an issuer, directly or indirectly receives in consideration of services or property, or both services and property, 10 percent or more of any class of securities of the issuer or 10 percent or more of the proceeds from the sale of any class of such securities.

We have no knowledge of any person who would be deemed a “promoter” of our company during the past five years within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act, except as follows:

Mr. David Richardson, who was a director at the inception of China Growth, may come into the definition of promoter as person taking initiative in founding and organizing the business of the company. On September 27, 2006, China Growth issued 78,125 ordinary shares (adjusted to reflect consolidation effectuated On March 1, 2008.) or 9.1% of the number of the outstanding ordinary shares at the time of the issuance, at par value of 0.000128 to Mid-Ocean Consulting Limited, for aggregate consideration of $10 at a purchase price of $.0001 per share. Mr. Richardson is the owner and the President and CEO of Mid-Ocean Consulting Limited and has voting and investment control over such shares, and therefore may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the shares issued by the company. The shares Mr. Richardson beneficially owns may be deemed an item of value received from the Company as a promoter.

Mr. Joseph Rozelle, who was a director at the inception of China Growth, may come into the definition of promoter as person taking initiative in founding and organizing the business of the company. On September 27, 2006, the company issued 781,250 ordinary shares (adjusted to reflect consolidation effectuated On March 1, 2008.) or 90.9% of the number of outstanding ordinary shares at the time of the issuance, at par value of 0.000128 to Nautilus Global Partners, LLC, for aggregate consideration of $100 at a purchase price of $.0001 per share. Mr. Rozelle  is the President  of  Nautilus  Global Partners but does not have voting or investment control over such shares, and the shares issued by China Growth may not be deemed to be beneficially owned by Mr.Rozelle, and therefore will not be deemed as item of value received by Mr. Rozelle from China Growth.

Director Independence

Because our common stock is not currently listed on a national securities exchange, we have used the definition of “independence” of The NASDAQ Stock Market to make this determination.  NASDAQ Listing Rule 5605(a)(2) provides that an “independent director” is a person other than an officer or employee of the company or any other individual having a relationship which, in the opinion of the company’s Board of Directors, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.  The NASDAQ listing rules provide that a director cannot be considered independent if:

·  
the director is, or at any time during the past three years was, an employee of the company;
·  
the director or a family member of the director accepted any compensation from the company in excess of $120,000 during any period of 12 consecutive months within the three years preceding the independence determination (subject to certain exclusions, including, among other things, compensation for board or board committee service);
·  
a family member of the director is, or at any time during the past three years was, an executive officer of the company;
·  
the director or a family member of the director is a partner in, controlling stockholder of, or an executive officer of an entity to which the company made, or from which the company received, payments in the current or any of the past three fiscal years that exceed 5% of the recipient’s consolidated gross revenue for that year or $200,000, whichever is greater (subject to certain exclusions);
·  
the director or a family member of the director is employed as an executive officer of an entity where, at any time during the past three years, any of the executive officers of the company served on the compensation committee of such other entity; or
·  
the director or a family member of the director is a current partner of the company’s outside auditor, or at any time during the past three years was a partner or employee of the company’s outside auditor, and who worked on the company’s audit.

Only Mr. Siqi Kang, Mr. Joseph Levinson and Mr. Huaili Zheng are considered independent in light of the NASDAQ Listing Rule 5605(a)(2) and the standards established by the SEC.

We do not currently have a separately designated audit, nominating or compensation committee.

Organization, Nature of Business and Basis of Presentation

China Growth Corporation. (“the Company” or “China Growth”) was incorporated in the Cayman Islands on December 7, 2006. The Company was originally organized as a “blank check” shell company to investigate and acquire a target company or business desiring to be a publicly held corporation. Wealth Environmental Protection Group, Inc. (“WEP”) was incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands on June 3, 2010 to serve as an investment holding company. On December 15, 2010, the Company (i) closed a share exchange transaction pursuant to which it became the 100% parent of WEP, and (ii) assumed the operations of WEP and its subsidiaries.

The share exchange transaction has been treated as a recapitalization of WEP, with China Growth emerging as the surviving legal entity and WEP is considered as the acquirer for accounting purpose.  Prior to the recapitalization, the China Growth had essentially no assets or liabilities and issued approximately 96% of its outstanding shares to the shareholders of WEP and their designees in the recapitalization. The historical consolidated financial statements of WEP are retroactively presented as the financial statements of China Growth.  A summary of the Company subsidiaries is currently as follows:

Organization, Nature of Business and Basis of Presentation, continued

On September 29, 2010, Jiangmen Huiyuan entered into a series of contractual agreements with Jiangmen Wealth Water, and its shareholders, in which Jiangmen Huiyuan effectively assumed management of the business activities of Jiangmen Wealth Water and has the right to appoint all executives and senior management and the members of the board of directors of Jiangmen Wealth Water. The contractual arrangements are comprised of a series of agreements, including an Exclusive Business Cooperation Agreement, Exclusive Option Agreement, Equity Interest Pledge Agreement and Power of Attorney, through which Jiangmen Huiyuan has the right to provide exclusive complete business support and technical and consulting service to Jiangmen Wealth Water for an annual fee in the amount of Jiangmen Wealth Water’s yearly net profits after tax. Additionally, Jiangmen Wealth Water’s shareholders have pledged their rights, titles and equity interest in Jiangmen Wealth Water as security for Jiangmen Huiyuan to collect consulting and services fees provided to Jiangmen Wealth Water through an Equity Pledge Agreement. In order to further reinforce Jiangmen Huiyuan’s rights to control and operate Jiangmen Wealth Water, the shareholders of Jiangmen Wealth Water have granted Jiangmen Huiyuan the exclusive right and option to acquire all of their equity interests in Jiangmen Wealth Water through an Exclusive Option Agreement.

Jiangmen Wealth Water owns all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Guizhou Yufeng, and Shanxi Wealth. During the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, Mr. Tan and his spouse, Ms. Hong Yu Du (“Ms. Du”) directly or through an affiliated company, had controlling equity interests in Jiangmen Wealth Water, Guizhou Yufeng and Shanixi Wealth.   In August and September 2010, through a restructuring process, Jiangmen Wealth Water paid $74,705 and $463,160 to acquire 100% equity interest of Guizhou Yufeng and 62% equity interest of Shainxi Wealth, respectively. On December 27, 2010 the Company acquired the remaining 38% equity interest of Shainxi Wealth owned by Mr. Tan through declared a dividend payable of $290,072 to Mr. Tan on Jan 3, 2011.  Mr. Tan and Ms. Du collectively owned 100% of Jiangmen Wealth Water and its subsidiaries after this restructuring.

Based on Jiangmen Huiyuan’s contractual relationship with Jiangmen Wealth, the Company has determined that a variable interest entity has been created and therefore Jiangmen Wealth is considered a consolidated subsidiary of the Company. Additionally, because all of the companies are currently under common control, the series of agreements and restructurings referred to above have been accounted for as a reorganization of the entities and the financial statements have been prepared as if the reorganization had occurred retroactively.  Accordingly these financial statements present the consolidated operating results, assets and liabilities of Wealth and its subsidiaries, which are collectively referred to as the “Company”.

The Company produces and sells water purifying agents and high-performance aluminate calcium (HAC) powder, the core ingredient of its water purifying agents in China.

The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2010, which has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements and the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, has been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations and the Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading.

In the opinion of management, these condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments which are of a normal recurring nature and which are necessary to present fairly the financial position of China Growth as of June 30, 2011 and the results of operations for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2011 and June 30, 2010, and the cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2011 and June 30, 2010. These condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010. The results of operations for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for the entire fiscal year.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, continued

Principles of Consolidation

These condensed financial statements present the consolidated accounts of WEP and its subsidiaries, Wealth Technology, Jiangmen Huiyan, and its variable interest entities, Jiangmen Wealth Water, Guizhou Yunfeng and Shanxi Wealth, which are collectively referred to as the “Company”. This presentation is based upon the retroactive treatment of series of agreements and restructurings of companies under common control as described in Note (1).

All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenue and expenses in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant accounting estimates reflected in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements include collectibility of accounts receivable, useful lives and impairment of property and equipment, mineral reserves available for mining production, total expected use of mineral reserves and value and realizability of intangible assets.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Segments

For the three months and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company’s operations have been broken down into segment based on production facility, in the manner that management reviews operations on a regular basis. All our operations revolve around the production of water purification agents made to similar specifications. All of the Company’s segments have similar assets, customers and distribution methods, and their economic characteristics are similar with regard to their gross margin percentages.

Currency Reporting

The Company’s operations in the PRC use the local currency, Renminbi (“RMB”), as their functional currency, whereas amounts reported in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and disclosures are stated in U.S. dollars, the reporting currency of the Company, unless stated otherwise. As such, the condensed consolidated balance sheets of the Company have been translated into U.S. dollars at the current rates as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 and the condensed consolidated statements of income have been translated into U.S. dollars at the weighted average rates during the periods the transactions were recognized.

The resulting translation gain adjustments are recorded as other comprehensive income in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income and as a separate component of equity in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Revenue Recognition

The Company’s main source of revenue is generated from sales of water purifying agents and high-performance calcium aluminates powder. The Company recognizes revenue when there is persuasive evidence of a sales arrangement, delivery and acceptance by the customer has occurred, the sales price is fixed or determinable, and collection is probable. Under the Company’s typical sales terms for both water purifying agents and HAC powder, the Company recognizes revenue when product is shipped from its production facilities because shipments are made FOB shipping point with the customer bearing all shipping costs and title and risk of loss transferring to the customer upon shipment. Sales terms for water purifying agents and HAC powder do not include customer acceptance provisions, the right of return (unless the product is proven to be defective) or other post-delivery obligations. The Company has not experienced any significant returns associated with defective product.

Value added taxes represent amounts collected on behalf of specific government agencies that require remittance of tax by specified dates. Value added taxes are collected at the time of sales and are detailed on invoices provided to customers. The Company accounts for value added taxes on a net basis. The Company recorded and paid sales related taxes based on a percentage of the value added taxes and reported the revenue net of the sales related taxes.

Major Customers

During the three months and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, there was no customer accounted for 10% or more of our net revenue.

Major Suppliers

During the three months and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, certain suppliers accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s total net purchases as follows:

Value-Added Tax (“VAT”)

Enterprises or individuals, who sell commodities, engage in repair and maintenance or import or export goods in the PRC are subject to a value-added tax in accordance with the PRC laws. The value-added tax standard rate for sales made by the Company is 17% of the gross sales price and the Company records its revenue net of VAT. A credit is available whereby VAT paid on the purchases of semi-finished products or raw materials used in the production of the Company’s finished products can be used to offset the VAT due on the sales of the finished products. When the Company purchases raw materials, the VAT incurred by the Company, and subject to credit, generally varies from 6% to 17% depending on the type of materials or services purchased. There is a significant difference in the VAT that the Company incurs on purchases and the amount the Company bills to customers for sales of HAC powder and water purifying agents due to the fact that the Company converts raw materials from their mined state to finished product and is responsible for the substantial portion of increased value in its products.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-6, Improving Disclosures About Fair Value Measurements, that amends existing disclosure requirements under ASC 820 by adding required disclosures about items transferring into and out of levels 1 and 2 in the fair value hierarchy; adding separate disclosures about purchase, sales, issuances, and settlements relative to level 3 measurements; and clarifying, among other things, the existing fair value disclosures about the level of disaggregation. This ASU is effective for the first quarter of 2010, except for the requirement to provide level 3 activities of purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements on a gross basis, which is effective beginning the first quarter of 2011. The adoption of this pronouncement does not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial condition.

Under the Make Good Escrow Agreement, the Company established minimum after tax net income thresholds (as determined in accordance with GAAP and excluding any non-cash expenses and one-time expenses related to the reverse acquisition of WEP and the private placement transaction) of $13.2 million for fiscal year 2010 and $18.09 million for fiscal year 2011 and minimum earnings per share thresholds (calculated on a fully diluted basis and including adjustment for any stock splits, stock combinations, stock dividends or similar transactions, and for shares issued in one public offering or pursuant to the exercise of any warrants, options, or other securities issued during or prior to the calculation period) of $0.58 for fiscal year 2010 and $0.66 for fiscal year 2011.  If our after tax net income or earnings per share for either fiscal year 2010 or fiscal year 2011 is less than 90% of the applicable performance threshold, then the performance threshold will be deemed not to have been achieved, and the investors will be entitled to receive ordinary shares based upon a pre-defined formula agreed to between the parties. The parties agreed that, for purposes of determining whether or not any of the performance thresholds are met, the release of any of the escrowed shares and any related expense recorded under U.S. GAAP shall not be deemed to be an expense, charge, or any other deduction from revenues even if U.S. GAAP requires contrary treatment or the annual report for the respective fiscal years filed with the SEC by the Company may report otherwise. At June 30, 2011, none was due to investors under the Make Good Escrow Agreement.

Income Taxes

The Company has not recorded a provision for U.S. federal income tax for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 because substantially all of the Company’s operations are conducted in the PRC.

On March 16, 2007, the National People’s Congress of China approved the new Corporate Income Tax Law of the PRC (New CIT Law), which is effective from January 1, 2008. Under the New CIT Law, the statutory corporate income tax rate applicable to most companies, including the Company is 25%. In accordance with the New CIT Law, enterprises established under the laws of foreign countries or regions and whose “place of effective management” is located within the PRC territory are considered PRC resident enterprises and subject to the PRC income tax at the rate of 25% on worldwide income. The definition of “place of effective management” refers to an establishment that exercises, in substance, overall management and control over the production and business, personnel, accounting, properties, etc. of an enterprise. As of June 30, 2011, no detailed interpretation or guidance has been issued to define “place of effective management”. Furthermore, as of June 30, 2011, the administrative practice associated with interpreting and applying the concept of “place of effective management” is unclear. However, the Company has analyzed the applicability of this law, as of and for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the Company has accrued and paid PRC tax on such basis. The Company will continue to monitor changes in the interpretation or guidance of this law.

Income Taxes, continued

The New CIT Law also imposes a 10% withholding income tax for dividends distributed by a foreign invested enterprise to its immediate holding company outside China. Such dividends were exempted from PRC tax under the previous income tax law and regulations.

The tax authority of the PRC Government conducts periodic and ad hoc tax filing reviews on business enterprises operating in the PRC after those enterprises had completed their relevant tax filings, hence the Company’s tax filings may not be finalized. It is therefore uncertain as to whether the PRC tax authority may take different views about the Company’s tax filings which may lead to additional tax liabilities.

The Company conducts substantially all of its business in PRC and it is subject to PRC income taxes at a 25% standard tax rate in 2011 and 2010.  Following is a reconciliation of the Company’s income tax provision of $1,492,687 and $1,249,431 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and $3,169,765 and $2,086,710 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively,  to the expected US statutory rate of 34%:

The Company accounts for uncertainty in income taxes in accordance with applicable accounting standards, which prescribe a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. These accounting standards also provide guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.

Based on the Company’s evaluation, the Company has concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in its financial statements.

General Reserve Fund

In accordance with the PRC Regulations on Enterprises with Foreign Investment, an enterprise established in the PRC with foreign investment is required to provide for certain statutory reserves, namely (i) General Reserve Fund, (ii) Enterprise Expansion Fund and (iii) Staff Welfare and Bonus Fund, which are appropriated from net profit as reported in the enterprise’s PRC statutory accounts. A WOFE is required to allocate at least 10% of its annual after-tax profit to the General Reserve Fund until the balance of such fund has reached 50% of its respective registered capital.  A non- wholly-owned foreign invested enterprise is permitted to provide for the above allocation at the discretion of its board of directors. Appropriations to the Enterprise Expansion Fund and Staff Welfare and Bonus Fund are at the discretion of the board of directors for all foreign invested enterprises. The aforementioned reserves can only be used for specific purposes and are not distributable as cash dividends. As a result, $496,396 has been appropriated to the accumulated statutory reserves (included in the retained earnings) by the Company as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 and the balance represents a fully funded General Reserve Fund:

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM


To the Board of Directors and Management of
China Growth Corporation:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of China Growth Corporation (the “Company”), as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

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

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

We were not engaged to examine management’s assertion about the effectiveness of China Growth Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010 and, accordingly, we do not express an opinion thereon.

Organization, Nature of Business and Basis of Presentation

China Growth Corporation. (“the Company” or “China Growth”) was incorporated in the Cayman Islands on December 7, 2006. The Company was originally organized as a “blank check” shell company to investigate and acquire a target company or business desiring to be a publicly held corporation. Wealth Environmental Protection Group, Inc. (“WEP”) was incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands on June 3, 2010 to serve as an investment holding company. On December 15, 2010, the Company (i) closed a share exchange transaction pursuant to which it became the 100% parent of WEP, and (ii) assumed the operations of WEP and its subsidiaries.

The share exchange transaction has been treated as a recapitalization of WEP, with China Growth emerging as the surviving legal entity and WEP treated as the acquirer from a financial reporting standpoint.  Prior to the recapitalization, the China Growth had essentially no assets or liabilities and issued approximately 96% of its outstanding shares to the shareholders of WEP and their designees in the recapitalization. The accompanying consolidated financial have been restated on a retroactive basis to present the capital structure of WEP as though it were the reporting entity.

Organization, Nature of Business and Basis of Presentation, continued

On September 29, 2010, Jiangmen Huiyuan entered into a series of contractual arrangements with Jiangmen Wealth Water, and its shareholders, in which Jiangmen Huiyuan effectively assumed management of the business activities of Jiangmen Wealth Water and has the right to appoint all executives and senior management and the members of the board of directors of Jiangmen Wealth Water. The contractual arrangements are comprised of a series of agreements, including an Exclusive Business Cooperation Agreement, Exclusive Option Agreement, Equity Interest Pledge Agreement and Power of Attorney, through which Jiangmen Huiyuan has the right to provide exclusive complete business support and technical and consulting services to Jiangmen Wealth Water for an annual fee in the amount of Jiangmen Wealth Water’s yearly net profits after tax. Additionally, Jiangmen Wealth Water’s shareholders have pledged their rights, titles and equity interests in Jiangmen Wealth Water as security for Jiangmen Huiyuan to collect consulting and services fees provided to Jiangmen Wealth Water through the Equity Interest Pledge Agreement. In order to further reinforce Jiangmen Huiyuan’s rights to control and operate Jiangmen Wealth Water, the shareholders of Jiangmen Wealth Water have granted Jiangmen Huiyuan the exclusive right and option to acquire all of their equity interests in Jiangmen Wealth Water through an Exclusive Option Agreement.

Jiangmen Wealth Water owns all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Guizhou Yufeng, and 62% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Shanxi Wealth. The remaining 38% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Shanxi Wealth is held by Mingzhuo Tan (“Mr. Tan”), our Chief Executive Officer. During the year ended December 31, 2009 and through the date of restructuring, Mr. Tan and his spouse, Ms. Hong Yu Du (“Ms. Du”) directly or through an affiliated company, had controlling equity interests in Jiangmen Wealth Water, Guizhou Yufeng and Shanixi Wealth.   In August and September 2010, through a restructuring process, Jiangmen Wealth Water paid $74,705 and $463,160 to acquire 100% equity interest of Guizhou Yufeng and 62% equity interest of Shainxi Wealth, respectively. Upon completion of this restructuring, the remaining 38% of Shainxi Wealth was owned by Mr. Tan who assigned all the ownership rights including voting rights to Jiangmen Wealth Water.  Mr. Tan and Ms. Du collectively owned 100% of Jiangmen Wealth Water and its subsidiaries after this restructuring.

Based on Jiangmen Huiyuan’s contractual relationship with Jiangmen Wealth, the Company has determined that a variable interest entity has been created and therefore Jiangmen Wealth is considered a consolidated subsidiary of the Company. Additionally, because all of the companies are currently under common control, the series of agreements and restructurings referred to above has been accounted for as a reorganization of the entities and the financial statements have been prepared as if the reorganization had occurred retroactively.  Accordingly these financial statements present the consolidated operating results, assets and liabilities of Wealth and its subsidiaries, which are collectively referred to as the “Company”.

The Company produces and sells water purifying agents and high-performance aluminate calcium (HAC) powder in China. HAC powder is the core ingredient of its water purifying agents.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”).

Consolidated Financial Statements

These financial statements present the consolidated accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries, WEP, Wealth Technology, Jiangmen Huiyan, Jiangmen Wealth Water, Guizhou Yunfeng and Shanxi Wealth, which are collectively referred to as the “Company”. This presentation is based upon the retroactive treatment of series of agreements and restructurings of companies under common control as described in Note 1.

All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in preparation of the consolidated financial statements.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenue and expenses in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant accounting estimates reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements include collectibility of accounts receivable, useful lives and impairment of property and equipment, mineral reserves available for mining production, total expected use of mineral reserves and value and realizability of intangible assets.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Codification

In June 2009, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 168, “The FASB Accounting Standards Codification TM and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles - a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162” (“SFAS No. 168”).  The FASB Accounting Standards Codification TM, (“Codification” or “ASC”) became the source of authoritative GAAP recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities.  On the effective date of SFAS No. 168, the Codification superseded all then-existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards.  All other non-grandfathered non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification became non-authoritative.

Following SFAS No. 168, the FASB will no longer issue new standards in the form of Statements, FASB Staff Positions, FASB Interpretations, or Emerging Issues Task Force Abstracts; instead, it will issue Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs”).  The FASB will not consider ASUs as authoritative in their own right; rather, these updates will serve only to update the Codification, provide background information about the guidance, and provide the bases for conclusions on the change(s) in the Codification.  SFAS No. 168 is incorporated in ASC Topic 105, Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.  The Company adopted SFAS No. 168 for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Segments

For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the operations of the Company’s operations have been broken down into segments based on production facility, which represents the manner that management reviews operations on a regular basis. All our operations revolve around the production of water purification agents made to similar specifications. All of the Company’s segments have similar assets, customers and distribution methods, and their economic characteristics are similar with regard to their gross margin percentages.

Currency Reporting

Amounts reported are stated in U.S. Dollars (“USD”), unless stated otherwise. The Company’s functional currency is Renminbi (“RMB”). Foreign currency transactions (outside the PRC) are translated into RMB according to the prevailing exchange rate at the transaction dates. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the balance sheet dates are translated into RMB at period-end exchange rates. For the purpose of preparing the consolidated financial statements, the consolidated balance sheets of the Company have been translated into USD at the current rates as of the end of the respective periods and the consolidated statements of income have been translated into USD at the weighted average rates during the periods the transactions were recognized. The resulting translation adjustments are recorded as other comprehensive income in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income and as a separate component of the consolidated statements of shareholders’ equity.

Following is an analysis of exchange rates used in translating the Company’s financial statements from the RMB to USD as of and for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 (Amounts represent the number of RMB necessary to equal one USD):

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash held in banks and on hand and highly liquid investments which are unrestricted as to withdrawal or use, and which have remaining maturities of three months or less when purchased.

Restricted Cash

The restricted cash represents cash deposits in the bank which are restricted until the Company fulfills certain requirements established under the Holdback Escrow Agreement and The IR Escrow Agreement as described in Note 7. At December 31, 2010 the Company has a total of $2,287,203 restricted cash.

Fair Value Disclosures of Financial Instruments

The Company has estimated the fair value amounts of its financial instruments using the available market information and valuation methodologies considered to be appropriate and has determined that the book value of the Company’s accounts receivable, inventories, loan from shareholders, accounts payable, value added taxes payable, other accrued liabilities, other taxes payable, and income tax payable as of December 31, 2010 and 2009 approximate fair value.

Comprehensive Income

Comprehensive income is defined to include all changes in equity except those resulting from investments by or distributions to shareholders. Among other disclosures, items that are required to be recognized under current accounting standards as components of comprehensive income are required to be reported in a financial statement that is presented with the same prominence as other financial statements. The changes in other comprehensive income of $1,311,888 and $4,043 for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, are foreign currency translation adjustments.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially expose the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable.  The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with reputable financial institutions with high credit ratings and the Company has not experienced any losses on deposits.

The Company conducts credit evaluations of customers and generally does not require collateral or other security from customers. When appropriate, the Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based on various factors including the age of receivables and other information relevant to the credit risk of specific customers. The Company has not experienced any significant credit losses on accounts receivable and at December 31, 2010 and 2009, management’s analysis of customer accounts did not indicate any impaired or problem accounts for which a reserve should be established. Accordingly, there is no allowance for doubtful accounts at December 31, 2010 or 2009.

Major Customers

During the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, there was no customer that accounted for 10% or more of the Company’s net revenue. However, certain customers did account for more than 10% of open accounts receivable at year end as described in the accounts receivable policy footnote.

Major Suppliers

During the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, certain suppliers accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s total net purchases as follows:

Supplier A
    14.47 %     16.60 %
Supplier B
    11.92 %     11.70 %

Revenue Recognition

The Company’s main source of revenue is generated from sales of water purifying agents and high-performance calcium aluminates powder (“HAC”). The Company recognizes revenue when there is persuasive evidence of a sales arrangement, delivery and acceptance by the customer has occurred, the sales price is fixed or determinable, and collection is probable. Under the Company’s typical sales terms for both water purifying agents and HAC the Company recognizes revenue when product is shipped from its production facilities because shipments are made FOB shipping point with the customer bearing all shipping costs and title and risk of loss transferring to the customer upon shipment. Sales terms for water purifying agents and HAC do not include customer acceptance provisions, the right of return (unless the product is proven to be defective) or other post-delivery obligations. The Company has not experienced any significant returns associated with defective product.

Value added taxes (“VAT”) represent amounts collected on behalf of specific government agencies that require remittance of tax by specified dates. VAT is billed to customers at the time of sales and is detailed on invoices provided to the customers. The Company accounts for value added taxes on a net basis. The Company records and remits sales related value added taxes based on the applicable value added tax percentage. VAT is not included in revenue or cost of goods sold, but is recorded in accounts receivable and recognized as a net liability for unremitted amounts on the balance sheet.

Accounts Receivable

The Company evaluates the collection status of outstanding receivables at the end of each reporting period and makes estimates of potential credit losses, if any. The Company has historically had no significant credit losses on its accounts receivable and, accordingly, has not provided an allowance for doubtful accounts as of December 31, 2010 or 2009.

Inventories

Finished goods and work-in-process inventories include the cost of raw materials, direct labor and manufacturing overhead. Raw materials inventory consists primarily of chemicals and coal for manufacturing. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (weighted average method) or market.

Cost of Goods Sold

Costs of goods sold includes raw materials, direct labor and factory overhead costs. Factory overhead costs consist of depreciation of production equipments and leasehold improvements, amortization of patent costs, amortization of mining and land use rights, indirect labor, utilities, repairs and maintenance costs related to the Company’s production equipment and costs related to the Company’s distribution network.

Operating Expenses

Selling and marketing expenses include salaries and employee benefits, commissions, sales rebates, travel and entertainment, regional office expenses and other selling expenses.

General and administrative expenses include management and office salaries and employee benefits, deprecation of office facilities, leasehold improvements, office equipment and automobiles, travel and entertainment, legal and accounting expenses, consulting fees, and other office expenses.

Transportation Charges

Transportation charges represent costs to deliver the Company’s inventory to the point of sale.  Substantially all sales by the Company are made FOB shipping point, and , accordingly, the customer bears the cost of shipping and the costs are not reflected in the Company’s financial statements. In the infrequent circumstance that the Company pays transportation costs on product sold, such costs are expensed and charged to costs of goods sold as incurred.

The Company incurs substantial shipping costs in moving mined bauxite and limestone from its mines to its manufacturing facilities and in moving product between facilities for further processing.  Such freight-in transportation costs are recognized in the cost of inventory and recognized as expense as the underlying products are sold. Transportation costs of mined products are included in the cost of Bauxite and Limestone as specified in mining service contracts and totaled approximately $2,313,956 and $1,779,760 during the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Transportation costs incurred in moving product between facilities totaled approximately $750,267 and $504,009 during the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Property, Plant and Equipment, and Land Use and Mining Rights

Property, equipment and equipment and land use rights are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization is calculated using the straight-line basis method over the following estimated useful lives:

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, continued

Property, Plant and Equipment, and Land Use and Mining Rights, continued

Mining rights, which are for definite terms ranging from 14 to 19 years, are amortized using the units of production method. In applying this method, the numerator is current year production and the denominator is expected production from mines over the life of the individual mining rights, with consideration of production limitations imposed by the mining rights agreements. See Long-Lived Assets below.

Intangible Assets

Acquired intangible assets with definite lives are amortized on a straight-line basis over their expected economic useful lives. The estimated economic useful lives of patents is 4 to 10 years. Amortization of patents during the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 was $0 and $5,096, respectively. Also during the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company recognized a loss on disposal of patents in the amount of $33,380.

Long-Lived Assets

If events or circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable, management tests property and equipment and intangible assets with definite lives for impairment. If the estimated future cash flows are projected to be less than the carrying amount, an impairment write-down (representing the carrying amount of the long-lived asset which exceeds the present value of estimated expected future cash flows) is recorded as a period expense.

Events that would trigger an impairment test include the following:

·  
A significant decrease in the market price of a long-lived asset.
·  
A significant change in the use of a long-lived asset or in its physical condition.
·  
A significant change in the business climate that could affect an asset’s value.
·  
An accumulation of cost significantly greater than the amount originally expected to acquire or construct a long-lived asset.
·  
A current period operating or cash flow loss combined with a history of such losses or a forecast demonstrating continued losses associated with the use of a long-lived asset.
·  
An expectation to sell or otherwise dispose of a long-lived asset significantly before the end of its estimated useful life.

Based on the Company’s reviews during the  years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, there were no events or circumstances that caused management to believe that impairment tests were necessary.

Value Added Taxes (“VAT”)

Enterprises or individuals, who sell commodities, engage in repair and maintenance or import or export goods in the PRC are subject to a value-added tax in accordance with the PRC laws. The value-added tax standard rate for sales made by the Company is 17% of the gross sales price and the Company records its revenue net of VAT. A credit is available whereby VAT paid on the purchases of semi-finished products or raw materials used in the production of the Company’s finished products can be used to offset the VAT due on the sales of the finished products. When the Company acquires raw materials the VAT incurred by the Company, and subject to credit, generally varies from 6% to 17% depending on the type of materials or services purchased. There is a significant difference in the VAT that the Company incurs on purchases and the amount the Company bills to customers for sales of HAC and water purifying agents due to the fact that the Company converts raw materials from their mined state to finished product and is responsible for the substantial portion of increased value in its products.

Following is an analysis of VAT billed to the Company on purchases, VAT billed by the Company on sales and VAT remitted to PRC during the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, with information related to the liability for uncollected or unremitted VAT at December 31, 2010 and 2009:

VAT is not included in revenue or costs of goods sold, but is recorded in accounts receivable and recognized as a liability for billed but uncollected or unremitted amounts on the consolidated balance sheets. The amount of VAT collected on sales differs from the 17% expected amount due to intercompany sales for which VAT is reported. VAT included in accounts receivable was approximately $95,206 and $129,053 at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Income Taxes

Deferred income taxes are recognized for temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Current income taxes are provided for in accordance with the laws of the relevant taxing authorities.

The FASB prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The Company recognizes a tax benefit associated with an uncertain tax position when, in the judgment of management, it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination by a taxing authority. For a tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, the Company initially and subsequently measures the tax benefit as the largest amount that the Company judges to have a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with a taxing authority. The liability associated with unrecognized tax benefits is adjusted periodically due to changing circumstances, such as the progress of tax audits, case law developments and new or emerging legislation. Such adjustments are recognized entirely in the period in which they are identified. The Company’s effective tax rate includes the net impact of changes in the liability for unrecognized tax benefits and subsequent adjustments as considered appropriate by management. The Company has not incurred any interest or penalties related to potential underpaid income taxes and has recognized no assets or liabilities associated with uncertain tax positions as of or for the years ended December 31, 2010 or 2009.

U.S. income taxes are not provided on foreign earnings when such earnings are indefinitely reinvested offshore. The Company periodically evaluates its investment strategies for each foreign tax jurisdiction in which it operates to determine whether foreign earnings will be indefinitely reinvested offshore and, accordingly, whether U.S. income taxes should be provided when such earnings are recorded. At December 31, 2010 and 2009, substantially all operations are in the PRC and management believes that all earnings will be indefinitely reinvested in the PRC.

Environmental Expenditures

The Company records liabilities for environmental assessments and/or cleanup when it is probable a loss has been incurred and the costs can be reasonably estimated. Environmental liability estimates may include costs such as anticipated site testing, consulting, remediation, disposal, post-remediation monitoring and legal fees, as appropriate. The liability does not reflect possible recoveries from insurance companies or reimbursement of remediation costs by state agencies, but does include estimates of cost sharing with other potentially responsible parties. Estimates are not discounted as the timing of the anticipated cash payments is not fixed or readily determinable. Claims for reimbursement of remediation costs are recorded when recovery is deemed probable. To date, the Company has not had any significant recurring costs associated with managing hazardous materials and pollution in its on-going operations or any mandated expenditures to limit or remediate contamination.

Earnings Per Share

The Company accounts for earnings per common share in accordance with the relevant accounting guidance which requires companies to present basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per share. Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income attributable to the Company by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income attributable to the Company by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding and dilutive securities outstanding during the year. In determining the number of shares outstanding and the weighted -average number of shares, the Company considered the effect of the restructuring described in Note 1. The components of basic and diluted earnings per share are as follows:

       
    2010     2009  
Net income (A)
  $ 11,273,663     $ 10,957,555

New Accounting Pronouncements

Effective April 1, 2009, the Company adopted authoritative guidance issued by the FASB, which is now codified in ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging” regarding the disclosures for derivative and hedging activities. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, continued

New Accounting Pronouncements, continued

Effective April 1, 2009, the Company adopted authoritative guidance codified as ASC 855 “Subsequent Events”, which establishes general standards for the accounting and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. In particular, ASC 855 sets forth the period after  the balance sheet date during which management of a reporting entity should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements; the circumstances under which an entity should recognize events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date in its financial statements; and the disclosures that an entity should make about events or transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date. The adoption of this guidance did not have a significant impact on Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Effective July 1, 2009, the Company adopted the amended authoritative guidance issued by the FASB regarding interim disclosures about fair value of financial instruments, which is now codified in ASC 805. The guidance requires disclosures about fair value of financial instruments for interim reporting periods as well as in annual financial statements of publicly traded companies. The guidance also requires those disclosures in summarized financial information at interim reporting periods. The adoption of this guidance did not have a significant impact on Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-13, “Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements—a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force, that provides amendments to the criteria for separating consideration in multiple-deliverable arrangements. As a result of these amendments, multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements will be separated in more circumstances than under existing U.S. GAAP. The ASU does this by establishing a selling price hierarchy for determining the selling price of a deliverable. The selling price used for each deliverable will be based on vendor-specific objective evidence if available, third-party evidence if vendor-specific objective evidence is not available, or estimated selling price if neither vendor-specific objective evidence nor third-party evidence is available. A vendor will be required to determine its best estimate of selling price in a manner that is consistent with that used to determine the price to sell the deliverable on a standalone basis. This ASU also eliminates the residual method of allocation and will require that arrangement consideration be allocated at the inception of the arrangement to all deliverables using the relative selling price method, which allocates any discount in the overall arrangement proportionally to each deliverable based on its relative selling price. Expanded disclosures of qualitative and quantitative information regarding application of the multiple-deliverable revenue arrangement guidance are also required under the ASU. The ASU does not apply to arrangements for which industry specific allocation and measurement guidance exists, such as long-term construction contracts and software transactions.  The ASU is effective beginning January 1, 2011. The Company does not expect that this standard will have a significant impact on Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, continued

In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-14, “Certain Revenue Arrangements That Include Software Elements—a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force”, that reduces the types of transactions that fall within the current scope of software revenue recognition guidance. Existing software revenue recognition guidance requires that its provisions be applied to an entire arrangement when the sale of any products or services containing or utilizing software when the software is considered more than incidental to the product or service. As a result of the amendments included in ASU No. 2009-14, many tangible products and services that rely on software will be accounted for under the multiple-element arrangements revenue recognition guidance rather than under the software revenue recognition guidance. Under the ASU, the following components would be excluded from the scope of software revenue recognition guidance:  the tangible element of the product, software products bundled with tangible products where the software components and non-software components function together to deliver the product’s essential functionality, and undelivered components that relate to software that is essential to the tangible product’s functionality. The ASU also provides guidance on how to allocate transaction consideration when an arrangement contains both deliverables within the scope of software revenue guidance (software deliverables) and deliverables not within the scope of that guidance (non-software deliverables). The ASU is effective beginning January 1, 2011. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-6, “Improving Disclosures About Fair Value Measurements”, that amends existing disclosure requirements under ASC 820 by adding required disclosures about items transferring into and out of levels 1 and 2 in the fair value hierarchy; adding separate disclosures about purchase, sales, issuances, and settlements relative to level 3 measurements; and clarifying, among other things, the existing fair value disclosures about the level of disaggregation. This ASU was effective for the first quarter of 2010, except for the requirement to provide level 3 activities of purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements on a gross basis, which is effective beginning the first quarter of 2011. Since this standard impacts disclosure requirements only, its adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Reclassifications

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the presentation for the current year.  Such reclassifications have no impact on net income or shareholders’ equity as previously reported.

The terms of the Company’s mining rights agreements provide the Company with only the right to produce specified quantities of minerals from specific mining sites. The amounts mined under the mining rights agreements are subject to annual limits; however, the rights are cumulative and the unused production in one year give rise to the right to mine greater amounts in subsequent years, up to the cumulative limit. At December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company has cumulative unused limestone and bauxite production that can be used to increase production in subsequent years as shown in the following table:

Income Taxes

The Company has not recorded a provision for U.S. federal income tax for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 because substantially all of the Company’s operations are conducted in the PRC. Following is an analysis of pre-tax income (loss) by country in 2010 and 2009:

On March 16, 2007, the National People’s Congress of China approved the new Corporate Income Tax Law of the PRC (“New CIT Law”), which was effective on January 1, 2008. Under the New CIT Law, the statutory corporate income tax rate applicable to most companies, including the Company is 25%. In accordance with the New CIT Law, enterprises established under the laws of foreign countries or regions and whose “place of effective management” is located within the PRC territory are considered PRC resident enterprises and subject to the PRC income tax at the rate of 25% on worldwide income. The definition of “place of effective management” refers to an establishment that exercises, in substance, overall management and control over the production and business, personnel, accounting, properties, etc. of an enterprise. As of December 31, 2010, no detailed interpretation or guidance has been issued to define “place of effective management”. Furthermore, as of December 31, 2010, the administrative practice associated with interpreting and applying the concept of “place of effective management” is unclear. However, the Company has analyzed the applicability of this law, as of and for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the Company has accrued and paid PRC tax on such basis. The Company will continue to monitor changes in the interpretation or guidance of this law.

The New CIT Law also imposes a 10% withholding income tax, subject to reduction based on tax treaty where applicable, for dividends distributed by a foreign invested enterprise to its immediate holding company outside China. Such dividends were exempted from PRC tax under the previous income tax law and regulations.

The tax authority of the PRC Government conducts periodic and ad hoc tax filing reviews on business enterprises operating in the PRC after those enterprises have completed their relevant tax filings, hence the Company’s tax filings may not be finalized. It is therefore uncertain as to whether the PRC tax authority may take different views about the Company’s tax filings which may lead to additional tax liabilities.

The Company conducts substantially all of its business and income producing activities  in the PRC and it is subject to PRC income taxes at a 25% standard tax rate in 2010 and 2009.  Following is a reconciliation of the Company’s income tax provision of $4,688,175 and $3,652,518, for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively,  to the expected US statutory rate of 34%:

A valuation allowance for the benefit of losses incurred in the US and British Virgin Islands has been established because the Company cannot demonstrate its ability to use those losses to offset income generated in those countries.

Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes

The Company accounts for uncertainty in income taxes in accordance with applicable accounting standards, which prescribe a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. These accounting standards also provide guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.

Based on the Company’s evaluation, the Company has concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in its consolidated financial statements.

General Reserve Fund

In accordance with the PRC Regulations on Enterprises with Foreign Investment, an enterprise established in the PRC with foreign investment is required to provide for certain statutory reserves, namely (i) General Reserve Fund, (ii) Enterprise Expansion Fund and (iii) Staff Welfare and Bonus Fund, which are appropriated from net profit as reported in the enterprise’s PRC statutory accounts. A WOFE is required to allocate at least 10% of its annual after-tax profit to the General Reserve Fund until the balance of such fund has reached 50% of its respective registered capital.  A non- wholly-owned foreign invested enterprise is permitted to provide for the above allocation at the discretion of its board of directors. Appropriations to the Enterprise Expansion Fund and Staff Welfare and Bonus Fund are at the discretion of the board of directors for all foreign invested enterprises. The aforementioned reserves can only be used for specific purposes and are not distributable as cash dividends. As a result, $496,396 has been appropriated to the accumulated statutory reserves (included in the retained earnings) by the Company as of December 31, 2010 and 2009 and the balance represents a fully funded General Reserve Fund:

Share Exchange Agreement and Reverse Stock Split

On December 15, 2010, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Share Exchange”) under which the Company will issue 25,955,150 shares of common stock, or approximately 96% of its outstanding shares for 100% of WEP. The closing of the Share Exchange was conditioned upon all conditions set forth in the Subscription Agreement being met and the closing of the Private Placement was conditioned upon the closing of the Share Exchange.  The shares to be issued under the share exchange agreement have not been physically issued by the stock transfer agent because the Company is awaiting shareholder approval of a 1: 1.42610714 reverse stock split on all of the ordinary shares issued and outstanding at the closing of the Share Exchange (the “Reverse Split”). Shares issued for compensation, shares issued in conversion of debt and shares issued under a private placement (the “Private Placement”) of preferred stock and warrants in the following descriptions of  stock activity have been adjusted to reflect a pre-split basis for all transactions even though certain agreements were prepared assuming the Reverse Split.

During the year ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company issued common and preferred stock as follows:

Common Stock

On December 15, 2010, the Company approved the issuance of 998,275 shares of common stock (700,000 post reverse split shares upon approval of such reverse split as described above) to Mr. Karlson Ka Tsun PO, at par value 0.000128 per share, as compensation for the services he provided to us in connection with the Share Exchange and Private Placement.

The notes carried an interest rate of 10% per annum and were secured by cash collateral of $250,000, all of assets of the Company and all of Company’s common shares owned by its primary shareholder, Mr. Tan Ming Zhuo.  The notes were set to mature on the earlier of (a) the one year anniversary of the date of issue, (b) a Public Offering, (c) a Qualified Equity Funding, or (d) the occurrence of a Change of Control or Change of Ownership (the “maturity”).   A “Qualified Equity Funding” means a sale by the Company of its equity securities that raises at least $6,500,000 for the Company.  The notes include a conversion feature that provides  that the outstanding notes amount will be converted to 998,275 shares of the Company’s common stock (700,000 post reverse split shares upon approval of such reverse split as described above) upon maturity. Such conversion was triggered on December 15, 2010, upon closing of the Private Placement Described below.

Since these notes were convertible into equity at a beneficial conversion rate, an embedded beneficial conversion feature was recorded as a debt discount and will be amortized utilizing the effective interest rate method over one year.  The Company originally recorded a beneficial conversion feature of $500,000 as a discount to the convertible note payable. Amortization of discount in the amount of $500,000 was recorded as interest expense prior to and upon closing of the Private Placement on December 15, 2010.

Contingencies and Commitments

Risks Associated with Operations in the PRC

The Company’s operations in the PRC are subject to specific considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in the United States of America. These include risks associated with, among others, the political, economic and legal environments and foreign currency exchange. The Company’s results may be adversely affected by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion and remittance abroad, and rates and methods of taxation.

Currency Risks Associated with RMB

The Company’s sales, purchases and expense transactions are denominated in RMB and all of the Company’s assets and liabilities are also denominated in RMB. The RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currencies under the PRC current law. In China, foreign exchange transactions are required by law to be transacted only by authorized financial institutions. Remittances in currencies other than RMB may require certain supporting documentation in order to affect the remittance.

Potential Liability Related to Unpaid Social Insurance Premiums and Housing Provident Funds

Neither Jiangmen Wealth, Shanxi Wealth, nor Guzhou Yunfeng, our operating subsidiaries under the PRC laws, have paid social insurance premiums and housing provident funds for their employees pursuant to the applicable PRC laws. The competent government authorities may require them not only to rectify their incompliance by paying the due and unpaid social insurance premiums and housing provident, but also impose fines. Management has calculated our exposure related to unpaid social insurance premiums and housing provident funds and believes the amount, including potential penalties is approximately $300,000 and such amount is accrued in the accompanying financial statements at December 31, 2010 and 2009.

Risks Associated with Mining

The Company is involved mineral exploration, development and production, activities that involve many risks that even a combination of experience, knowledge and careful evaluation may not be able to overcome. The Company’s operations are subject to all of the hazards and risks inherent in these activities, including liability for pollution, cave-ins or similar hazards against which we cannot insure or against which we may elect not to insure. Any such event could result in work stoppages and damage to property, including damage to the environment. We do not currently maintain any insurance coverage against these operating hazards. The payment of any liabilities that arise from any such occurrence would have a material adverse impact on our company.

Asset Retirement Obligation

According to the “Rules on Mineral Resources Administration” and “Rules on Land Rehabilitation” of the PRC, mining companies causing damages to cultivated land, grassland or forest are required to restore the land to a state approved by the local governments. Based on the current positions of with the local governments administering the “Rules on Mineral Resources Administration” and “Rules on Land Rehabilitation” related to the Company’s four mines and based on management’s review of rehabilitation requirements, , the Company believes that it is not required to restore or rehabilitate its two surface limestone mining sites and its two underground bauxite mining sites because all its current mines mining sites are located in distant areas and the mines do not affect cultivated land, grasslands or forests. Additionally, the Company’s believes that its mining and extraction activities have not negatively impacted the surrounding environment.

* Estimated. We are paying all expenses of the offering listed above. No portion of these expenses will be borne by the selling shareholders. The selling shareholders, however, will pay any other expenses incurred in selling their ordinary shares, including any brokerage commissions or costs of sale.

Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers

Cayman Islands law does not limit the extent to which a company’s memorandum of association and articles of association may provide for indemnification of officers and directors, except to the extent any such provision may be held by the Cayman Islands courts to be contrary to public policy, such as to provide indemnification against civil fraud or the consequences of committing a crime.

Our memorandum of association and articles of association provides for indemnification of our officers and directors for any liability incurred in their capacities as such. We have not entered into indemnification agreements with each of our officers and directors which indemnify such individuals to the extent allowable under Cayman Islands law.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the registrant, pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Registrant has been informed that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

Item 15. Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

The following sets for the issuance of unregistered securities by the registrant for the past three years.

On December 15, 2010, we issued a total of 24,956,875 ordinary shares to the Wealth Environmental Protection Shareholders, the sole shareholder of Wealth Environmental Protection, in exchange for 7,000 shares of Wealth Environmental Protection, representing all the issued and outstanding capital stock of Wealth Environmental Protection. The number of our shares issued to Wealth Environmental Protection Shareholders was determined based on an arms-length negotiation. The issuance of the above shares to these shareholders was made in reliance on the exemption provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and Regulation S promulgated thereunder. The facts relied upon to make the exemption available are described

On December 15, 2010, in a private placement, we sold to a group of accredited investors an aggregate 222,402 units for a purchase price of $6,672,031, or $30.00 per Unit. Each Unit consists of two Preferred Shares and a Warrant to purchase 7.1305357 ordinary shares. The Warrants are exercisable for a period of 5 years from its original issuance date, at an exercise price of $3.16 per share. The exercise prices of the Investor Warrants are subject to adjustment upon certain events, such as stock splits, combinations, dividends, distributions, reclassifications, mergers or other corporate change and dilutive issuances. The Warrants are also exercisable by a cashless exercise, commencing twelve (12) months from the issuance date if the Registration Statement providing for the resale of the Warrant Shares is no then effective. The foregoing securities were issued pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder.

On December 15, 2010, we issued 998,275 shares to Mr. Karlson Ka Tsun PO, at par value 0.000128 per share, as compensation for the services he provided to us in connection with the Share Exchange and Private Placement. The foregoing securities were issued pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act.

On December 15, 2010, we issued 998,725 shares to Access America Fund, LP as result of the automatic conversion of the notes for $500,000 that Access America Fund, LP in the event of the Share Exchange. The foregoing securities were issued pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act.
 
In instances described above where we issued securities in reliance upon Regulation D, we relied upon Rule 506 of Regulation D of the Securities Act. These shareholders who received the securities in such instances made representations that (a) the shareholder is acquiring the securities for his, her or its own account for investment and not for the account of any other person and not with a view to or for distribution, assignment or resale in connection with any distribution within the meaning of the Securities Act, (b) the shareholder agrees not to sell or otherwise transfer the purchased shares unless they are registered under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws, or an exemption or exemptions from such registration are available, (c) the shareholder has knowledge and experience in financial and business matters such that he, she or it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in us, (d) the shareholder had access to all of our documents, records, and books pertaining to the investment and was provided the opportunity ask questions and receive answers regarding the terms and conditions of the offering and to obtain any additional information which we possessed or were able to acquire without unreasonable effort and expense, and (e) the shareholder has no need for the liquidity in its investment in us and could afford the complete loss of such investment. Management made the determination that the investors in instances where we relied on Regulation D are accredited investors (as defined in Regulation D) based upon management’s inquiry into their sophistication and net worth. In addition, there was no general solicitation or advertising for securities issued in reliance upon Regulation D.
 
 
II-1

 
 
In instances described above where we indicate that we relied upon Section 4(2) of the Securities Act in issuing securities, our reliance was based upon the following factors: (a) the issuance of the securities was an isolated private transaction by us which did not involve a public offering; (b) there were only a limited number of offerees; (c) there were no subsequent or contemporaneous public offerings of the securities by us; (d) the securities were not broken down into smaller denominations; and (e) the negotiations for the sale of the stock took place directly between the offeree and us.

In instances described above where we indicate that we relied upon Regulation S in issuing the securities, our reliance was based upon the factors that such shareholders were not “U.S. Person” as that term is defined in Rule 902(k) of Regulation S under the Securities Act, that such shareholders were acquiring our securities, for investment purposes for their own respective accounts and not as nominees or agents, and not with a view to the resale or distribution thereof, and that the shareholders understood that the shares of our securities may not be sold or otherwise disposed of without registration under the Securities Act or an applicable exemption therefrom.

Item 17. Undertakings

Undertaking Required by Item 512 of Regulation S-K.

(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

 (1) to file, during any period in which it offers or sells securities are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement to:

(i) include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

(ii) reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and

(iii) include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

(2) For determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(3) File a post-effective amendment to remove from registration any of the securities that remain unsold at the end of the offering.

(b) For determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

(1) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

(2) Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the registrant or used or referred to by the registrant;

(3) The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the registrant; and

(4) Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the registrant to the purchaser.

(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
