Cash Flow

2008 Compared to 2007

Cash flows from operations during 2008 amounted to $77,758,717, representing an increase of approximately 72% compared with cash flows from
operations of $45,099,379 in 2007. The increased cash flow was due primarily to the increase of our income from operations by 23%, to $64,330,696 in the year of 2008, compared with operation income of $52,228,110 in the year of 2007.

STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%">Our cash flows used in investing activities amounted to $257,374,093 in the year ended December 31, 2008. We also used $172,682,150 for the purchase
of construction in progress, property, plant and equipment and land use right in PRC. Compared to 2007, our cash flows used in investing activities increased by $187,528,391, which resulted primarily from the acquisition payments and investments in
long term assets.

Our cash flows from financing activities amounted to $80,948,164 in the year of 2008. During that period, the Company
received net proceeds of $110 million from the issuance of our convertible notes and paid $29,998,616 for our prepaid forward stock repurchase contract.

SIZE="2">2007 Compared to 2006

Cash flows from operations during 2007 amounted to $45,099,379, representing an increase of
approximately 55% compared with cash flows from operations of $29,093,464 in 2006. The increased cash flow was due primarily to the increase of our net income by 48%, to $43,290,881 in the year of 2007, compared with net income of $29,201,146 in the
year of 2006. The increased cash flow was also due in part to an increase in other payables and accrued expenses by $2,856,936 during 2007, due primarily to our increased accrual on advertisement. These increases were partly offset by an increase in
our accounts receivable of $4,142,308, other current assets of $2,755,757 and advances to suppliers and prepaid expenses of $2,205,730 during 2007, which resulted from our expanded scale of operations, which required support of increased sales and
production activities and additional demands on working capital.

Our cash flows used in investing activities amounted to $69,845,702 in
the year ended December 31, 2007. During that period, we paid $29,397,657 for the acquisition of CCXA and $36,475,090 for the acquisition of Boke. We also used $1,507,017 for the purchase of plant and equipment. Compared to 2006, our cash flows
used in investing activities increased by $43,459,138, which resulted primarily from the acquisition payments.

The increased cash flow was also due in part to a decrease in notes receivable by $1,014,478 and increase in accounts payable of $2,162,213 during the nine months ended September 30, 2007, due to our better control over payment to our vendors. These increases were partly offset by an increase in our accounts receivable of $3,913,584 and our inventories of $4,675,990 to support increased production activities. The increased cash flow was also offset by a decrease in customer deposits of $869,835 and accrued payroll and welfare of $868,625, which resulted from the payment of accrued bonus.

Our cash flows used in investing activities amounted to $23,219,046 in the nine months ended September 30, 2007.

Cash Flow

Cash flows from operations during the six months ended June 30, 2007 amounted to $16,007,441, representing an increase of approximately 96% compared with cash flows from operations of $ 8,187,584 in the same period of 2006. The increased cash flow was due primarily to the increase in our net income by 50%, to $16,117,817 in the first six months of 2007, compared with net income of $10,731,527 in the same period last year. The increased cash flow was also due in part to a decrease in notes receivable by $2,543,005 and increase in accounts payable of $734,805 during the six months ended June 30, 2007, due to our better control over payment to our vendors. These increases were partly offset by an increase in our advance to suppliers of $1,453,861 and our inventories of $1,371,699 to support increased production activities. The increased cash flow was also offset by a decrease in other payable and accrual of $1,897,810 and tax payable of $461,975, which resulted from the payment of accrued bonus and income tax.

Our cash flows used in investing activities amounted to $1,441,700 in the six months ended June 30, 2007. During that period, we paid $953,637 for purchases of plant and equipment and spent $488,063 on construction in progress.

Our cash flows from financing activities amounted to $4,060,627 in the six months ended June 30, 2007. During that period, we repaid $17,961 bank loans and received $3,960,164 proceeds from exercise of warrants.

Working Capital

Our working capital increased by $22,088,091 to $114,340,162 at June 30, 2007 as compared to $92,252,071 at December 31, 2006, primarily due to our increase in cash of $20,665,382, inventories of $1,446,938, advances to suppliers of $1,372,562 and partly offset by a decrease of $2,543,005 in notes receivable and an increase of $882,101 in accounts payable. The increase of inventory was because we maintained higher inventory level to prepare for increased operating activities. The decrease in notes receivable was the result of better credit control.

We currently generate our cash flow through operations. We believe that our cash flow generated from operations will be sufficient to sustain operations for at least the next twelve months. There is no identifiable expansion plan as of June 30, 2007, but from time to time, we may identify new expansion opportunities for which there will be a need for use of cash.
