ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE

The following chart reflects our organizational structure for our active subsidiaries as of the date of this Annual Report.


(1) Shanghai Hanhuang Valve Co., Ltd. and Hong Kong Hanxi Investment Co., Ltd were former shareholders of Hanwei Valve, both of which were acquired during acquisition of Hanwei Valve by the Company and are shell companies without any active operations.

OUR INDUSTRY

The Chinese valve market is expected to increase at an annual rate of more than 20% for the next few years. We believe that demand for valves will be driven primarily by the energy demand and water treatment system investment and upgrading. The stimulus package being implemented by the Chinese government in response to the global economic crisis is expected to emphasize basic infrastructure construction projects for water, electricity, gas and heat in order to ensure continuous economic development and meet the requirement of improving people’s living standard. We believe that these initiatives should generate strong demand for valves and promising business prospects for the valve industry and our company. We intend to focus our efforts on utilizing our tangible and intangible resources to expand and strengthen our products and increase our market share in response to industry demands.


The other driving force is that China central government strongly promotes localization of major equipments. The proportion of domestic in nuclear power, fossil power and chemical plants increased quickly, so that China Valves will have more opportunities to enter into the high-end valves areas which have been occupied by international companies.

As a supplier to customers in a variety of industries, our performance is largely dependent upon the overall economic conditions and the growth and performance of industries and companies operating in those industries which purchase our valve products. The following provides a brief overview of the historical and projected performance and growth of the four largest industries in which our customers operate.

Our Involvement in the Power Industry

Fossil power

The Chinese government continues to improve installed capacity of fossil power plants to meet the growing electric demand for both industrial and residential uses. Many ultra-critical fossil power plants are on construction or on engineering, and smaller sub-critical fossil power plants were shut down or upgrading to improve energy efficiency and improve the environment.

Kaifeng Valve is the only valve supplier in China to provide main stream isolation valve and main feed water isolation valve in ultra-critical fossil power plants. Benefiting from the government requirement for localization, Kaifeng Valve expects to have an extensive market share in this area.

The increase use of the fossil power demands more and more large size butterfly valves and control valves for circulating water system. ZD Valve and Changsha Valve expect to receive more orders from ultra-critical fossil power plants.

Nuclear power

Nuclear power plants normally demand more valves than the same capacity fossil power plants, and purchase price and amount are much higher than traditional power plants due to higher security requirements. That’s the reason why our main competitors invest a large amount of human and financial capacities to nuclear power.

As one of the main suppliers of high pressure high temperature valves in China nuclear power industry, Kaifeng Valve has been cooperating with two biggest nuclear investment companies in China-CNNC and CGNPC. Kaifeng Valve was awarded as qualified valve supplier from National Energy Board.

Changsha Valve and ZD Valve are major suppliers of butterfly valves for nuclear power plants. They expect to steadily expand their market share in nuclear power industry.

Our Involvement in the Petrochemical, Oil and gas Industries

Energy preservation is the top priority of the Chinese government in recent years. Long distance oil and gas pipelines, huge LNG and LPG tank farms, large size ethylene and refinery will be built in the near future to ensure safe and efficient transportation of energy. In addition, national oil companies like CNPC, Sinopec and CNOOC have increased their investment in oversea oilfields and refineries.

As one of the main valve suppliers of oil and gas industry, Hanwei Valve will benefit from large demand for pipeline ball valve, check valve and gate valve. Kaifeng Valve expects to receive more orders for large demand of high pressure valves in ethylene and refinery plants. Yangzhou Rock strives to compete with imported cryogenic butterfly valves in LNG and LPG tank farms with its reliable products and services.

Our Involvement in the Water treatment

The Chinese government stably increases its investment to upgrade public facilities, water pipe network and sewage treatment in thousands of cities and municipals. The total annual demand for valves in the water treatment industry will be RMB 10 billion in recent years.

As the main valve suppliers in water treatment, ZD Valve and Changsha Valve will improve their production capacities to meet the rapid growth of the demand. In addition, we work closely with our customers and research institutes to develop high quality products to compete with imported products.

OUR COMPETITIVE STRENGTHS

  • Broad range of products and leading brands. From the extreme high/low temperature, extreme high pressure, extreme abrasion and corrosion, to the most complex smart valves, we believe that we have the most comprehensive range of valve products in our industry and enjoy leading market positions based on the estimated market share of our key products, broad brand recognition and a strong reputation for quality and service within the markets we serve.


  • Low-cost and high quality manufacturing capabilities. We believe our historical capital investment in manufacturing technologies helps us reduce the costs of producing our products. We focus on manufacturing and selling high quality valves at competitive prices. We believe we have a price advantage over most of our competitors.

  • Highly experienced and incentivized research and development team. Our R&D department composed of engineers with many years of experience, some of them is the most professional engineers in China valves industry. We are committed to developing new products and we have in recent months generally launched a new model every two months. We have cooperated with universities and institutions to improve and develop products.

  • Highly experienced, proven management team. We are led by an experienced management team with a long and successful track record, enabling us to recognize and capitalize upon attractive opportunities in our key markets. Most of senior management members have an average of over 18 years of experience in the valve industry; top management team like CEO and CFO came from international valves group or has international management experience.

OUR STRATEGY

Our objective is to increase profitability, cash flow and revenue while developing and enhancing our position as the leading valve manufacturer in China. Our strategy for achieving these objectives includes the following key elements:

Pursue Strategic Acquisitions. China’s valve market is very fragmented. According to the China Valve Industry Association’s statistics, there are more than 4,000 local valve manufacturers in the market. The top ten local valve manufactures have an aggregate Chinese market share of 12.1% only. We anticipate that the fragmented nature of the Chinese valve market will continue to provide opportunities for growth through strategic acquisitions. Our acquisition strategy will continue to focus on entities with products that provide opportunities for us to expand and products that can be marketed through our existing distribution channels or provide us with new distribution channels for our existing products, thereby increasing marketing and distribution efficiency. Furthermore, we seek acquisition candidates that demonstrate a combination of good profit margins, strong cash flow, leading positions in the local markets and products that generate recurring revenue. We will use our brand advantage to consolidate China’s valve market and to increase our market share.

In 2010, we finished the acquisition with Yangzhou Rock, Changsha Valve and Hanwei Valve. These acquisitions enabled us to expand the products line and advanced technologies we offer to the growing oil and gas, hydropower and fossil power markets.

Further Penetrate Existing Market Segments. We plan to further penetrate existing market segments to drive sustainable growth by strengthening our existing customer relationships and attracting new customers. We intend to further penetrate existing customers by continuing to:

  • provide quality products;

  • fulfill logistical requirements and volume demands efficiently and consistently;

  • provide comprehensive product support from design to after-market customer service;

  • cross-sell our brands across various business segments to our customers;

  • leverage strong established distribution channels.

Enter New Market Segments. To drive organic growth from our existing businesses, we will continue to leverage our customer relationships to develop or acquire new products and product extensions to enter into new market segments. In 2010, we signed Strategic Cooperation Agreement with China Dongfang Electric Corporation (DEC) in 2010, the biggest power generation equipment manufacturer of the world. The first order with DEC was over $8 million. We were awarded as qualified nuclear safety grade valve supplier by National Energy Board. Besides the traditional local market, we established sales headquarter in Shanghai to strengthen our market share in multi-national chemical companies and oversea oil and gas market.

High End Product Focus. We will keep focusing on high end, more sophisticated valve products, including high-parameter and special usage valves. The majority of valve companies in China focus only on low end products at lower prices. Because of our technology and R&D strength, we will continue focusing on high end valve products and pursing higher margins than the industry average. Our 24-way rotary valves have been successfully used in PX, MX etc. petrochemical plants, and now it will be used in chromatogram separation unit of biological engineering. Deep-water ball valve will be put into production in 2011, and it will be used in the deep-sea drilling platform widely. We also focus on exploring and commercializing new technologies in smart control like intelligent interlock, remote flexible control, intelligent alarm link. In many of our research areas, we are working with universities, institutes and experts in the appropriate fields to ensure that the latest technologies will be applied in our products and services.

Strengthen Overseas Market. We integrated direct sales team and distributors in Europe, Russia, Middle East, Central Asia and Southeast Asia, so that they will represent all of China Valves products and services instead of the products of ZD Valve or Hanwei Valve only. We participated in more flow control exhibitions, and upgraded our website so that oversea customers could reach us easily.

 


OUR MANUFACTURING PROCESS

Our manufacturing process is a multi-step process involving the following tasks:

  • purchasing and depositing of raw materials;

  • raw material processing and analysis;

  • production of inventory of semi-finished products (or transporting to the next step directly);

  • product assembly;

  • product inspection and testing, and placing finished products in inventory.

Our modern computer aided design (“CAD”) center can assist in the design of all products. We closely monitor and test the quality of raw materials, including casting steel blank parts, forging steel blank parts and steel. We use a high-speed direct reading spectrograph (32 channels) for the analysis of the chemical components of raw materials. We have cobalt 60y flaw detectors, high-power magnetic particle flaw detectors and ultrasonic flaw detectors, non-destructive equipment that helps to ensure the internal quality of forging blank parts. We have a metal material test room for physical and chemical analysis and mechanical testing of raw materials. In order to ensure production structural capability, we utilize high-precision equipment, including high-precision computer numerical control (“CNC”) lathes and advanced welding equipment to satisfy the requirements of our product designs. We have modern product-processing workshops mainly with CNC lathes and approximately 20 units of large-scale high-precision equipment, including 4 m CNC vertical lathes, CNC horizontal lathes and CNC boring and milling machines. In addition, we have pressure equipment to conduct pressure testing for finished products in accordance with appropriate standards.

We have set up a comprehensive and reliable quality management system with strict material manufacturing procedures and standard inspection. We have been adhering to a lean production principle. By continuously seeking to improve production, we eliminate non-value added activities, such as reducing the waiting time among each manufacturing process, building up design standard code to reduce the cycle and improve the time of products delivery to our customers. Order-based productions reduce inventory and improve cash flow. In addition, workplace monitoring and certain rules to follow improve the manufacturing efficiency. Because of increasing efficiencies in our production cycle, we have quicker feedback from our customers about our products allowing us to make improvements for their next order.

WARRANTIES

We typically warranty all of our products and provide replacement or credit to our customers who are not satisfied with our products for a period of one year from the date of shipment. When we receive an indication that a product did not perform as expected, our quality control specialists and laboratory personnel test the product to determine if our process was correct for the specifications submitted by the customer and if the manufacturing process was completed as planned. If we failed to produce the product according to the customer’s specifications or if the manufacturing process was flawed, we provide immediate credit to the customer. If we produced the product to the customer’s specifications and if the manufacturing process was not flawed, we send a team to the customer’s facilities to see if we can assist the customer in correcting its process. Typically a team consists of at least one engineer, at least one experienced production person and the customer’s sales representative. If the product was manufactured to the proper specifications, our team works with the customer in developing corrective action to solve its problem.

We have not established reserve funds for potential customer claims because, historically, we have not experienced significant customer complaints about our products and none of our customers have requested damages for any loss incurred due to product quality problems. We believe that our customer support teams, our quality assurance and manufacturing monitoring procedures will continue to keep claims at a level that does not support a need for a reserve. We review customer returns on a monthly basis and may establish a reserve as we expand our business by volume and products. If we were to experience a significant increase in warranty claims, our financial results could be adversely affected. Please refer to “Risk Factors - Risks Related to Our Business”. We do not maintain a reserve for warranty or defective products claims. Our costs could substantially increase if we experience a significant number of warranty claims.

SUPPLIERS OF OUR RAW MATERIALS

The primary raw materials that are used in the production of these valves include carbon steel, stainless steel, low temperature steel and heat resistant steel, casting blank parts and actuating devices. The prices for such materials fluctuate depending upon market conditions. However, because we have long-term suppliers and clients, the influence of price fluctuations are not currently material to the Company.

We have established long-term relationships with key suppliers. However, we do not exclusively rely on our key suppliers. We have adopted a dual supplier system for raw materials. Therefore, if our primary suppliers cannot supply us with our raw material for any reason, we are able to seamlessly acquire raw material from another supplier. All of our suppliers must meet our quality standards and delivery requirements consistently in order to remain on our approved supplier list. If deliveries are delayed repeatedly, we terminate the partnership with such supplier.

These flexible sourcing arrangements are designed to ensure the stable supply of raw material and promote healthy competition among our suppliers. We believe our supplier arrangements encourage our suppliers to provide advanced technology and high quality products.


SALES, MARKETING AND DISTRIBUTION

We market our products through regional agents. We provide periodic training to our sales staff. Because we have direct communication with clients and participate in trade exhibitions, our sales staff has produced successful results. As a major supplier of valve products in China, we believe we have established a good reputation in our industry.

We market our products through various ways. We have total around $183.7 million sales in our six facilities and in several regional offices. In addition, we have around 50 distributors across China. We provide periodic training to our sales staff and have direct communication and participate in trade exhibitions. In 2010, we set up a sales and marketing headquarter in Shanghai. We hired experienced sales personnel who have significant sales and marketing experience from multinational valves companies such as Tyco and Flowserve. Moreover, a professional technical support team was set up to enhance after-market service.

OUR RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EFFORTS

China Valves’ business is dependent on constantly improving the technology associated with developing and manufacturing valves. Therefore, China Valves has committed itself to research and development of new valves and developing state of the art valves that improve and advance the valve industry. In 2010 and 2009 we invested a total of $228,858 and $126,750 respectively to research and development efforts,. We also intend to increase the amount of resources we allocate to research and development as the Company continues to grow.

The company has 303 engineering and support technicians and researchers dedicated to actively researching and developing new valves and participating in valve production and improvement. China Valves operates a research and development laboratory with Lanzhou Science and Engineering University (the only university in China that offers a major in valve development and manufacturing). It has also partnered with Hefei General Mechanical Study Department Valves Study Institute to work to improve the development, manufacture and quality of valves produced in China. In addition, we focus on development of valves for nuclear power stations.

COMPETITORS

We compete against a number of international, local valve manufacturers as well as specialized manufacturers on the basis of product capacity, product quality, and breadth of product line, delivery and price. Our major competitors vary by industry and region.

The following is a list of our major competitors in the valve industry:

  • Hong Cheng Machinery Co., Ltd. – a manufacturer of medium pressure big diameter butterfly valves for the water supply industry. We compete with them in hydropower industry, and fossil power industry.

  • Sufa Technology Industry, Co., Ltd. – a leading manufacturer of nuclear safety grade valves. It has broad product line which including on/off valves, control valves and specialized valves. We compete with them in nuclear power, petrochemical and refinery industries.

  • Suzhou Neway Valve Co., Ltd. – a leading manufacturer of pipeline ball valves, API gate, globe, check and ball valves in China. Neway is a famous valve brand in the international market. We compete with them in oil and gas, petrochemical and chemical industries.

  • Dalian DV Valve Co. Ltd. – a leading manufacturer of high pressure gate, globe and check valves. We compete with them in fossil power, nuclear power industries.

There are, however, certain factors that we believe set us apart from all of our competitors, including the following:

  • We are the first manufacturer of main stream gate valves for 300MW and main water supply gate valves for 600MW power stations in China;

  • We are the sole designer and manufacturer in China of valves that are used for ultra-critical units of 1000MW power stations;

  • We are the first manufacturer of high pressure large diameter oil pipeline valves in China;

  • We are the first domestic manufacturer of 2,500lb high pressure gate valves for hydrogenation in chemical lines, which replace imported products;

  • We are the first domestic manufacturer of high pressure large diameter gate valves for the coal chemical industry;

  • We are the sole manufacturer in China that produces all of the following: blowtorch valves, water pressure testing valves, steam controlling valves for high parameter power stations and bypass valves for high pressure heaters;

  • We are one of the two suppliers who can provide 24-way rotary valve in the world; and

  • We manufacture the biggest size butterfly valve in China.


INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

We own the following six trademarks:


Our six operating subsidiaries own more than 50 patents for water supply and drainage pipes, supply and disposal pipes for water and gas, sewage disposal used for water and gas supply and drainage pipes, etc. The expiration dates for these patents range from 2011 to 2018.

We cannot give any assurance that the protection afforded our intellectual property will be adequate. It may be possible for third parties to obtain and use, without our consent, intellectual property that we own or are licensed to use. Unauthorized use of our intellectual property by third parties, and the expenses incurred in protecting our intellectual property rights, may adversely affect our business.

REGULATION

Because our six operating subsidiaries are located in the PRC, we are regulated by the national and local laws of the PRC.

There is no private ownership of land in China and all land ownership is held by the government of the PRC, its agencies and collectives. Land use rights can be obtained from the government for a period up to 70 years and are typically renewable. Land use rights can be transferred upon approval by the land administrative authorities of the PRC (State Land Administration Bureau) upon payment of the required land transfer fee.

We are also subject to the PRC’s foreign currency regulations. The PRC government has control over Renminbi reserves through, among other things, direct regulation of the conversion of Renminbi into other foreign currencies. Although foreign currencies that are required for “current account” transactions can be bought freely at authorized Chinese banks, the proper procedural requirements prescribed by Chinese law must be met. At the same time, Chinese companies are also required to sell their foreign exchange earnings to authorized Chinese banks and the purchase of foreign currencies for capital account transactions still requires prior approval of the Chinese government.

We do not face any significant government regulation in connection with the production of our products. We do not require any special government permits to produce our products other than those permits that are required of all corporations in China.

Item 1A. RISK FACTORS

RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS

Our business would be adversely affected by a downturn in government spending related to infrastructure upgrades, repairs and replacements, or by reduced demand in the power, petrochemical, oil or water supply industries.

Our business is primarily dependent upon spending on new infrastructure projects, as well as infrastructure upgrades, repairs and replacement, in the power, petrochemical, oil and water supply industries. We are also subject to general economic conditions, the need for large-scale projects, interest rates and government incentives provided for public work projects. We believe that the Chinese stimulus plan will result in an increase in infrastructure projects and an increase in demand for our valve products. If the Chinese stimulus plan does not have its desired effect or if there are declines in the number of projects planned by government agencies, government spending cuts, general budgetary constraints, difficulty in obtaining necessary permits or the inability of government entities to issue debt, sales of our valves may not increase at desired rates. It is not unusual for projects in power, petrochemical, oil or water supply industries to be delayed and rescheduled for a number of reasons, including changes in project priorities and difficulties in complying with environmental and other government regulations. We cannot assure you that economic growth experienced by China will continue or that if it does, that state and local governments will address deferred infrastructure needs. Any significant decline in the project spending in the key industries or governmental spending on infrastructure could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.


Our industry is very competitive in China.

The domestic market for valve products is fragmented and highly competitive. We compete with over 160 medium-sized, local Chinese valve manufacturers, although we are aware of only two that have similar manufacturing capacities as our company. The number of these companies varies from time to time. While we may have greater resources than our smaller competitors, it is possible that these competitors have better access in certain local markets to customers and prospects and lower production and raw material costs. Some of our valve products compete on the basis of price and are sold in fragmented markets with low barriers to entry, allowing less expensive domestic producers to gain market share and reduce our margins.

Our revenue will decrease if the industries in which our customers operate experience a protracted slowdown.

Our products mainly serve as key components in projects and machines operated by our customers which are mostly in the oil, power, water supply, petrochemical, and metallurgy industries. Therefore, we are subject to the general changes in economic conditions affecting those industry segments of the economy. If the industry segments in which our customers operate do not grow or if there is a contraction in those industries, demand for our valve products will decrease. Demand for our products is typically affected by a number of overarching economic factors, including, but not limited to, interest rates, the availability and magnitude of private and governmental investment in infrastructure projects and the health of the overall global economy. If there is a decline in economic activity in China and the other markets in which we operate or a protracted slowdown in industries on which we rely for our sales, demand for our products and our revenue will likewise decrease.

Foreign competition is intense and could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

In addition to domestic competition, we face intense competition from foreign competitors. The intensity of foreign competition is affected significantly by fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar against Chinese currency and by the level of import duties imposed by the Chinese government on certain products. Our major international competitors are Velan Inc., KSB Group and Tyco Flow Inc. Many of our competitors have more resources and greater brand recognition than we enjoy. While our resources may not be as great as our larger competitors, we believe our product quality and direct sales offices and distribution network are superior in China. If our competitors are able to gain greater market share or improve their sales efforts, our sales may decrease, we may be forced to lower our prices, or our marketing costs may increase, all of which could negatively impact our financial results.

Any decline in the availability, or increase in the cost of raw materials could materially affect our earnings.

Our valve manufacturing operations depend heavily on the availability of various raw materials and energy resources. The mix of raw materials used in the production of valves is mainly composed of casting steel blank parts, forging steel blank parts and steel, which represent 60% of all raw materials used in the production of valves. The fuel costs in our manufacturing operations, particularly heavy oil and electricity, account for over 2% of total manufacturing costs. The availability of raw materials and energy resources may decline and their prices may fluctuate greatly. We have long-term relationships with several suppliers; however, we do not have long term supply contracts and if our suppliers are unable or unwilling to provide us with raw materials on terms favorable to us, we may be unable to produce certain products. This could result in a decrease in profit and damage to our reputation in our industry. In the event our raw material and energy costs increase, we may not be able to pass these higher costs on to our customers in full or at all. Any increase in the prices for raw materials or energy resources could materially increase our costs and therefore lower our earnings.

We depend on a group of major distributors for a significant portion of our sales; any loss of these distributors could reduce our sales and continuing consolidation of distributors could cause price pressure.

In 2010, approximately 75% of our sales revenue was generated from our direct sales teams throughout China and 25% was generated from our distributors. Sales through distributors were highly concentrated in a few distributors, with 62% of distributor sales coming from our ten largest distributors, and 38% from the three largest distributors. Our business relationships with most of our major distributor branches may be terminated at the option of either party upon 30 days’ notice.

Although our relationships with our ten largest distributors have been long-lasting, distributors in our industry have experienced significant consolidation in recent years, and we cannot assure you that our distributors will not be acquired by other distributors who buy products from our competitors. Our ability to retain these customers in the face of other competitors generally depends on a variety of factors, including the quality and price of our products and our ability to market these products effectively. We cannot assure you that, as consolidation among distributors continues, distributors will not be able to force us to lower our prices, which would have an adverse impact on our financial condition or results of operations.


Any disruption in the supply chain of raw materials and our products could adversely impact our ability to produce and deliver products.

As a manufacturing company, we face serious challenges in supply chain management for raw materials and delivery of our products. Supply chain fragmentation and local protectionism within China further complicates supply chain disruption risks. Local administrative bodies and physical infrastructure built to protect local interests pose transportation challenges for raw material transportation as well as product delivery. In addition, profitability and volume could be negatively impacted by limitations inherent within the supply chain, including competitive, governmental, legal, natural disasters, and other events that could impact both supply and price. Any of these occurrences could cause significant disruptions to our supply chain, manufacturing capability and distribution system that could adversely impact our ability to produce and deliver products.

We do not maintain a reserve for warranty or defective products claims. Our costs could substantially increase if we experience a significant number of warranty claims.

We typically warrant all of our products and provide replacement or credit to our customers who are not satisfied with our products for a period of one year from the date of shipment. We have not established a reserve for potential customer claims because, historically, we have not experienced significant customer complaints about our products and none of our customers have requested damages for any loss incurred due to product quality problems.

We believe that our customer support teams, our quality assurance and manufacturing monitoring procedures will continue to keep claims at a level that does not support a need for a reserve. However, if we were to experience a significant increase in warranty claims, our financial results could be adversely affected.

Our rapid expansion could significantly strain our resources, management and operational infrastructure which could impair our ability to meet increased demand for our products and hurt our business results

To accommodate our anticipated growth, we will need to expend capital resources and dedicate personnel to implement and upgrade our accounting, operational and internal management systems and enhance our record keeping and contract tracking system. Such measures will require us to dedicate additional financial resources and personnel to optimize our operational infrastructure and to recruit more personnel to train and manage our growing employee base. If we cannot successfully implement these measures efficiently and cost-effectively, we will be unable to satisfy the demand for our products, which will impair our revenue growth and hurt our overall financial performance.

We must manage growth in operations to maximize our potential growth and achieve our expected revenues and any failure to manage growth will cause a disruption of our operations and impair our ability to generate revenue.

In order to maximize potential growth in our current and potential markets, we believe that we must expand the scope of our valve manufacturing and production facilities and capabilities and continue to develop new and improved valves. This expansion will place a significant strain on our management and our operational, accounting, and information systems. We expect that we will need to continue to improve our financial controls, operating procedures and management 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.

We cannot assure you that our internal growth strategy will be successful, which may result in a negative impact on our growth, financial condition, results of operations and cash flow.

One of our strategies is to grow internally through increasing the development of new products and improve the quality of existing products. However, many obstacles to this expansion exist, including, but not limited to, increased competition from similar businesses, our ability to improve our products and product mix to realize the benefits of our research and development efforts, international trade and tariff barriers, unexpected costs, costs associated with marketing efforts abroad and maintaining attractive foreign exchange rates. We cannot, therefore, assure you that we will be able to successfully overcome such obstacles and establish our services in any additional markets. Our inability to implement this internal growth strategy successfully may have a negative impact on our growth, future financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

We cannot assure you that our acquisition growth strategy will be successful, resulting in our failure to meet growth and revenue expectations.

In addition to our internal growth strategy, we have also explored the possibility of growing through strategic acquisitions. We intend to pursue opportunities to acquire businesses in the PRC that are complementary or related in product lines and business structure to us. We may not be able to locate suitable acquisition candidates at prices that we consider appropriate or to finance acquisitions on terms that are satisfactory to us. If we do identify an appropriate acquisition candidate, we may not be able to negotiate successfully the terms of an acquisition, or, if the acquisition occurs, integrate the acquired business into our existing business. Acquisitions of businesses or other material operations may require debt financing or additional equity financing, resulting in leverage or dilution of ownership. Integration of acquired business operations could disrupt our business by diverting management away from day-to-day operations. The difficulties of integration may be increased by the necessity of coordinating geographically dispersed organizations, integrating personnel with disparate business backgrounds and combining different corporate cultures.


We also may not be able to retain key employees or customers of an acquired business or realize cost efficiencies or synergies or other benefits we anticipated when selecting our acquisition candidates. In addition, we may need to record write-downs from future impairments of intangible assets, which could reduce our future reported earnings. At times, acquisition candidates may have liabilities or adverse operating issues that we fail to discover through due diligence prior to the acquisition. In addition to the above, acquisitions in the PRC, including state owned businesses, will be required to comply with the laws of the PRC, to the extent applicable. There can be no assurance that any given proposed acquisition will be able to comply with PRC requirements, rules and/or regulations, or that we will successfully obtain governmental approvals that are necessary to consummate such acquisitions, to the extent required. If our acquisition strategy is unsuccessful, we will not grow our operations and revenues at the rate that we anticipate.

We may have difficulty defending our intellectual property rights from infringement, resulting in lawsuits requiring us to devote financial and management resources that would have a negative impact on our operating results.

We regard our service marks, trademarks, trade secrets, patents and similar intellectual property as critical to our success. We rely on trademark, patent and trade secret law, as well as confidentiality and license agreements with certain of our employees, customers and others to protect our proprietary rights. We have received patent protection for certain of our products in the PRC. No assurance can be given that our patents, trademarks and licenses will not be challenged, invalidated, infringed or circumvented, or that our intellectual property rights will provide competitive advantages to us. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain a license from a third-party for technology that we may need to conduct our business or that such technology can be licensed at a reasonable cost.

Presently, we provide our valves mainly in the PRC. To date, no trademark or patent filings have been made other than in the PRC. To the extent that we market our services in other countries, we may have to take additional action to protect our intellectual property. The measures we take to protect our proprietary rights may be inadequate and we cannot give you any assurance that our competitors will not independently develop formulations, processes and services that are substantially equivalent or superior to our own or copy our products.

We depend on our key management personnel and the loss of their services could adversely affect our business.

We place substantial reliance upon the efforts and abilities of our executive officers. The loss of the services of any of our executive officers could have a material adverse effect on our business, operations, revenues or prospects. We do not maintain key man life insurance on the lives of these individuals.

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 corporate governance requirements, including requirements under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and other rules implemented by the Securities and Exchange Commission. 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 rules and regulations, and we cannot predict or estimate the amount of additional costs we may incur or the timing of such costs.

We may not be able to meet the accelerated filing and internal control reporting requirements imposed by the Securities and Exchange Commission, resulting in a possible decline in the price of our common stock and our inability to obtain future financing.

Companies that file reports with the SEC, including us, are subject to the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, or SOX 404. SOX 404 requires management to establish and maintain a system of internal control over financial reporting and annual reports on Form 10-K filed under the Exchange Act to contain a report from management assessing the effectiveness of a company’s internal control over financial reporting. Separately, under SOX 404, as amended by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010, public companies that are large accelerated or accelerated filers must include in their annual reports on Form 10-K an attestation report of their regular auditors attesting to and reporting on management’s assessment of internal control over financial reporting.

Although we continue to expend significant resources in developing the necessary documentation and testing procedures required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, there is a risk that we may not be able to comply timely with all of the requirements imposed by this rule. In the event that we are unable to receive a positive attestation from our independent registered public accounting firm with respect to our internal controls, investors and others may lose confidence in the reliability of our financial statements and our stock price and ability to obtain equity or debt financing as needed could suffer.


In addition, in the event that our independent registered public accounting firm is unable to rely on our internal controls in connection with its audit of our financial statements, and in the further event that it is unable to devise alternative procedures in order to satisfy itself as to the material accuracy of our financial statements and related disclosures, it is possible that we would be unable to file our Annual Report on Form 10-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which could also adversely affect the market price of our common stock and our ability to secure additional financing as needed.

We may have difficulty raising necessary capital to fund operations as a result of market price volatility for our shares of common stock.

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 has experienced wide fluctuations that have not necessarily been related to the operations, performance, underlying asset values or prospects of such companies. For these reasons, our shares of common stock can also be expected to be subject to volatility resulting from purely market forces over which we will have no control. If our business development plans are successful, we may require additional financing to continue to develop and exploit existing and new products and services related to our industries and to expand into new markets. The expansion of our products and services may, therefore, be dependent upon our ability to obtain financing through debt and equity or other means.

Our management is unfamiliar with United States securities laws and may have to expend time and resources becoming familiar with such laws which could lead to various regulatory issues.

We became a public company in December 2007 through the reverse acquisition with China Valves Samoa. Our management is not familiar with United States securities laws and will have to spend time and resources becoming familiar with such laws. This could be expensive and time-consuming and could lead to various regulatory issues which may adversely affect our operations.

RISKS RELATED TO DOING BUSINESS IN CHINA

Adverse changes in political and economic policies of the PRC government could impede the overall economic growth of China, which could reduce the demand for our products and damage our business.

We conduct substantially all of our operations and generate most of our revenue in China. Accordingly, our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects are affected significantly by economic, political and legal developments in China. The PRC economy differs from the economies of most developed countries in many respects, including:

  • a higher level of government involvement;

  • an early stage of development of the market-oriented sector of the economy;

  • a rapid growth rate;

  • a higher level of control over foreign exchange; and

  • the control over the allocation of resources.

As the PRC economy has been transitioning from a planned economy to a more market-oriented economy, the PRC government has implemented various measures to encourage economic growth and guide the allocation of resources. Although these measures may benefit the overall PRC economy, they may also have a negative effect on us.

Although the PRC government has in recent years implemented measures emphasizing the utilization of market forces for economic reform, the PRC government continues to exercise significant control over economic growth in China through the allocation of resources, controlling the payment of foreign currency-denominated obligations, setting monetary policy and imposing policies that impact particular industries or companies in different ways.

Any adverse change in economic conditions or government policies in China could have a material adverse effect on the overall economic growth in China, which in turn could lead to a reduction in demand for our products and services and consequently have a material adverse effect on our business and prospects.

Uncertainties with respect to the PRC legal system could limit the legal protections available to you and us.

We conduct substantially all of our business through our operating subsidiaries in the PRC. Our operating subsidiaries are generally subject to laws and regulations applicable to foreign investments in China and, in particular, laws applicable to foreign-invested enterprises. The PRC legal system is based on written statutes, and prior court decisions may be cited for reference but have limited precedential value. Since 1979, a series of new PRC laws and regulations have significantly enhanced the protections afforded to various forms of foreign investments in China. However, since the PRC legal system continues to rapidly evolve, the interpretations of many laws, regulations and rules are not always uniform and enforcement of these laws, regulations and rules involve uncertainties, which may limit legal protections available to you and us. In addition, any litigation in China may be protracted and result in substantial costs and diversion of resources and management attention. In addition, all of our executive officers and all of our directors are residents of China and not of the United States, and substantially all the assets of these persons are located outside the United States.


As a result, it could be difficult for investors to affect service of process in the United States or to enforce a judgment obtained in the United States against our Chinese operations and subsidiaries.

If we are found to have failed to comply with applicable laws, we may incur additional expenditures or be subject to significant fines and penalties.

Our operations are subject to PRC laws and regulations applicable to us. However, many PRC laws and regulations are uncertain in their scope, and the implementation of such laws and regulations in different localities could have significant differences. In certain instances, local implementation rules and/or the actual implementation are not necessarily consistent with the regulations at the national level. Although we strive to comply with all the applicable PRC laws and regulations, we cannot assure you that the relevant PRC government authorities will not later determine that we have not been in compliance with certain laws or regulations.

Our failure to comply with the applicable laws and regulations in China could subject us to administrative penalties and injunctive relief, as well as civil remedies, including fines, injunctions and recalls of our products. It is possible that changes to such laws or more rigorous enforcement of such laws or with respect to our current or past practices could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition. Further, additional environmental, health or safety issues relating to matters that are not currently known to management may result in unanticipated liabilities and expenditures.

The PRC government exerts substantial influence over the manner in which we must conduct our business activities.

The PRC 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, import and export tariffs, 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 the jurisdictions in which we operate 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 or joint ventures.

Restrictions on currency exchange may limit our ability to receive and use our sales revenue effectively.

All our sales revenue and expenses are denominated in RMB. Under PRC law, the RMB is currently convertible under the “current account” which includes dividends and trade and service-related foreign exchange transactions, but not under the “capital account” which includes foreign direct investment and loans. Currently, our PRC operating subsidiary may purchase foreign currencies for settlement of current account transactions, including payments of dividends to us, without the approval of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange (“SAFE”) by complying with certain procedural requirements. However, the relevant PRC government authorities may limit or eliminate our ability to purchase foreign currencies in the future. Because a significant amount of our future revenue will be denominated in RMB, any existing and future restrictions on currency exchange may limit our ability to utilize revenue generated in RMB to fund our business activities outside China that are denominated in foreign currencies.

Foreign exchange transactions by PRC operating subsidiaries under the capital account continue to be subject to significant foreign exchange controls and require the approval of or need to register with PRC government authorities, including SAFE. In particular, if our PRC operating subsidiaries borrow foreign currency through loans from us or other foreign lenders, these loans must be registered with SAFE, and if we finance the subsidiaries by means of additional capital contributions, these capital contributions must be approved by certain government authorities, including the Ministry of Commerce (“MOFCOM”) or their respective local counterparts. These limitations could affect our ability to obtain foreign exchange through debt or equity financing.

Fluctuations in exchange rates could adversely affect our business and the value of our securities.

The value of our common stock will be indirectly affected by the foreign exchange rate between U.S. dollars and RMB and between those currencies and other currencies in which our sales may be denominated. Because substantially all of our earnings and cash assets are denominated in RMB and the net proceeds from our August 2008 private placement were, and the proceeds we receive from the exercise of warrants we have issued if and when those warrants are exercised for cash will be, denominated in U.S. dollars, fluctuations in the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and the RMB will affect the relative purchasing power of these proceeds, our balance sheet and our earnings per share in U.S. dollars. In addition, appreciation or depreciation in the value of the RMB relative to the U.S. dollar would affect our financial results reported in U.S. dollar terms without giving effect to any underlying change in our business or results of operations. Although we have no current intention to pay any dividends in the foreseeable future, fluctuations in the exchange rate would also affect the relative value of any dividend we issue that will be exchanged into U.S. dollars as well as earnings from, and the value of, any U.S. dollar-denominated investments we make in the future.

Since July 2005, the RMB has no longer been pegged to the U.S. dollar. Although the People’s Bank of China regularly intervenes in the foreign exchange market to prevent significant short-term fluctuations in the exchange rate, the RMB may appreciate or depreciate significantly in value against the U.S. dollar in the medium to long term. Moreover, it is possible that in the future PRC authorities may lift restrictions on fluctuations in the RMB exchange rate and lessen intervention in the foreign exchange market.


Very limited hedging transactions are available in China to reduce our exposure to exchange rate fluctuations. To date, we have not entered into any hedging transactions. Although we may enter into hedging transactions in the future, the availability and effectiveness of these transactions may be limited, and we may not be able to successfully hedge our exposure at all. In addition, our foreign currency exchange losses may be magnified by PRC exchange control regulations that restrict our ability to convert RMB into foreign currencies.

Currently, some of our raw materials and major equipment are imported. In the event that the U.S. dollar appreciates against the RMB, our costs will increase. If we cannot pass the resulting cost increases on to our customers, our profitability and operating results will suffer. In addition, because our sales to international customers are growing rapidly, we are increasingly subject to the risk of foreign currency depreciation.

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 highly fluctuating rates of inflation. During the past ten years, the rate of inflation in China has been as high as 5.9% and as low as -0.8% . These factors have led to the adoption by the 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 the 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 and our company.

Restrictions under PRC law on our PRC subsidiaries’ ability to make dividends and other distributions could materially and adversely affect our ability to grow, make investments or acquisitions that could benefit our business, pay dividends to our shareholders, and otherwise fund and conduct our businesses.

Substantially all of our revenues are earned by our PRC subsidiaries. However, PRC regulations restrict the ability of our PRC subsidiaries to make dividends and other payments to their offshore parent company. PRC legal restrictions permit payments of dividend by our PRC subsidiaries only out of their accumulated after-tax profits, if any, determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards and regulations. Each of our PRC subsidiaries is also required under PRC laws and regulations to allocate at least 10% of its annual after-tax profits determined in accordance with PRC GAAP to a statutory general reserve fund until the amounts in said fund reaches 50% of our registered capital. Allocations to these statutory reserve funds can only be used for specific purposes and are not transferable to us in the form of loans, advances or cash dividends.

Any limitations on the ability of our PRC subsidiaries to transfer funds to us could materially and adversely limit our ability to grow, make investments or acquisitions that could be beneficial to our business, pay dividends and otherwise fund and conduct our business.

Under the New EIT Law, China Valves Technology Inc. and its subsidiaries China Fluid Equipment and Henan Tonghai Fluid may be classified as a “resident enterprise” of China. Such a classification would likely result in unfavorable tax consequences to us and our non-PRC stockholders.

China passed a new Enterprise Income Tax Law, or the New EIT Law, and its implementing rules, both of which became effective on January 1, 2008. Under the New EIT Law, an enterprise established outside of China with “de facto management bodies” within China is considered a “resident enterprise” meaning that it can be treated in a manner similar to a Chinese enterprise for enterprise income tax purposes. The implementing rules of the New EIT Law define de facto management as “substantial and overall management and control over the production and operations, personnel, accounting, and properties” of the enterprise. Because the New EIT Law and its implementing rules are new, no official interpretation or application of this new “resident enterprise” classification is available. Therefore, it is unclear how tax authorities will determine tax residency based on the facts of each case.

Our operating subsidiaries Kaifeng Valve, ZD Valve, Taizhou Taide Valve, Yangzhou Valve, Changsha Valve, and Shanghai Hanwei Valve are already designated as “resident enterprises” for PRC enterprise income tax purposes. However, if the PRC tax authorities determine that China Valves Technology Inc. and its subsidiaries China Fluid Equipment and Henan Tonghai Fluid are also “resident enterprises” for PRC enterprise income tax purposes, a number of unfavorable PRC tax consequences could follow. First, we may be subject to the enterprise income tax at a rate of 25% on our worldwide taxable income as well as PRC enterprise income tax reporting obligations. In our case, this would mean that income such as interest on offering proceeds and non-China source income would be subject to PRC enterprise income tax at a rate of 25%. Second, although under the New EIT Law and its implementing rules dividends paid to us from our PRC subsidiaries would qualify as “tax-exempt income,” we cannot guarantee 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 enterprise income tax 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 10% withholding tax is imposed on dividends we pay to our non-PRC stockholders and with respect to gains derived by our non-PRC stockholders from transferring our shares. We are actively monitoring the possibility of “resident enterprise” treatment for the 2008 tax year and are evaluating appropriate organizational changes to avoid this treatment, to the extent possible.


If we were treated as a “resident enterprise” by PRC tax authorities, we would be subject to taxation in both the U.S. and China, and our PRC tax may not be credited against our U.S. tax.

If the China Securities Regulatory Commission, or CSRC, or another PRC regulatory agency determines that CSRC approval is required in connection with the reverse acquisition, the reverse acquisition may be cancelled, or we may become subject to penalties.

On August 8, 2006, six PRC regulatory agencies, including the CSRC, promulgated the Provisions Regarding Mergers and Acquisitions of Domestic Enterprises by Foreign Investors (the “M&A Rule”) which became effective on September 8, 2006. The M&A Rule, among other things, requires that an offshore company controlled by PRC companies or individuals that have acquired a PRC domestic company for the purpose of listing the PRC domestic company’s equity interest on an overseas stock exchange must obtain the approval of the CSRC prior to the listing and trading of such offshore company’s securities on an overseas stock exchange. On September 21, 2006, the CSRC, pursuant to the M&A Rule, published on its official website procedures specifying documents and materials required to be submitted to it by offshore companies seeking CSRC approval of their overseas listings.

If the CSRC or another PRC governmental agency subsequently determines that we must obtain CSRC approval of the reverse acquisition, we may face regulatory actions or other sanctions from the CSRC or other PRC regulatory agencies. These regulatory agencies may impose fines and penalties on our operations in China and limit our operating privileges in China, 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 shares.

The M&A Rule establishes more complex procedures for some acquisitions of Chinese companies by foreign investors, which could make it more difficult for us to pursue growth through acquisitions in China.

The M&A Rule establishes additional procedures and requirements that could make some acquisitions of Chinese companies by foreign investors more time-consuming and complex, including requirements in some instances that the PRC Ministry of Commerce be notified in advance of any change-of-control transaction and in some situations, require approval of the PRC Ministry of Commerce when a foreign investor takes control of a Chinese domestic enterprise. In the future, we may grow our business in part by acquiring complementary businesses, although we do not have any plans to do so at this time. The M&A Rule also requires PRC Ministry of Commerce anti-trust review of any change-of-control transactions involving certain types of foreign acquirers. Complying with the requirements of the M&A Rule to complete such transactions could be time-consuming, and any required approval processes, including obtaining approval from the PRC Ministry of Commerce, may delay or inhibit our ability to complete such transactions, which could affect our ability to expand our business or maintain our market share.

You may have difficulty enforcing judgments against us.

We are a Nevada holding company and most of our assets are located outside of the United States. All of our current operations are conducted in the PRC. In addition, all of our directors and officers are nationals and residents of countries other than the United States. A substantial portion of the assets of these persons is located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for you to effect service of process within the United States upon these persons. It may also be difficult for you to enforce in U.S. courts judgments on the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws against us and our officers and directors, most of whom are not residents in the United States and the substantial majority of whose assets are located outside of the United States. In addition, there is uncertainty as to whether the courts of the PRC would recognize or enforce judgments of U.S. courts. Courts in China may recognize and enforce foreign judgments in accordance with the requirements of the PRC Civil Procedures Law based on treaties between China and the country where the judgment is made or on reciprocity between jurisdictions. China does not have any treaties or other arrangements that provide for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments with the United States. In addition, according to the PRC Civil Procedures Law, courts in the PRC will not enforce a foreign judgment against us or our directors and officers if they decide that the judgment violates basic principles of PRC law or national sovereignty, security or the public interest. Accordingly, it is uncertain whether a PRC court would enforce a judgment rendered by a court in the United States.

RISKS RELATED TO THE MARKET FOR OUR STOCK

Although publicly traded, the trading market in our common stock has been substantially less liquid than the average trading market for a stock quoted on the Nasdaq Stock Market and this low trading volume may adversely affect the price of our common stock.

Our common stock started trading on the Nasdaq Global Market under the symbol “CVVT” in November 2009. The trading volume of our common stock has been comparatively low to other companies listed on Nasdaq. Limited trading volume will subject our shares of common stock to greater price volatility and may make it difficult for you to sell your shares of common stock at a price that is attractive to you.

The market price of our common stock is volatile, leading to the possibility of its value being depressed at a time when you want to sell your holdings.

The market price of our common stock is volatile, and this volatility may continue. Numerous factors, many of which are beyond our control, may cause the market price of our common stock to fluctuate significantly. These factors include:


  • our earnings releases, actual or anticipated changes in our earnings, fluctuations in our operating results or our failure to meet the expectations of financial market analysts and investors;

  • changes in financial estimates by us or by any securities analysts who might cover our stock;

  • speculation about our business in the press or the investment community;

  • significant developments relating to our relationships with our customers or suppliers;

  • stock market price and volume fluctuations of other publicly traded companies and, in particular, those that are in the steel industries;

  • customer demand for our products;

  • investor perceptions of the steel industries in general and our company in particular;

Securities class action litigation is often instituted against companies following periods of volatility in their stock price. This type of litigation could result in substantial costs to us and divert our management’s attention and resources. Moreover, securities markets may from time to time experience significant price and volume fluctuations for reasons unrelated to operating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may adversely affect the price of our common stock and other interests in our company at a time when you want to sell your interest in us.

We do not intend to pay dividends for the foreseeable future.

For the foreseeable future, we intend to retain any earnings to finance the development and expansion of our business, and we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock. Accordingly, investors must be prepared to rely on sales of their common stock after price appreciation to earn an investment return, which may never occur. Investors seeking cash dividends should not purchase our common stock. Any determination to pay dividends in the future will be made at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on our results of operations, financial condition, contractual restrictions, restrictions imposed by applicable law and other factors our board deems relevant.

  • the operating and stock performance of comparable companies;

  • general economic conditions and trends;

  • major catastrophic events;

  • announcements by us or our competitors of new products, significant acquisitions, strategic partnerships or divestitures;

  • changes in accounting standards, policies, guidance, interpretation or principles;

  • loss of external funding sources;

  • sales of our common stock, including sales by our directors, officers or significant stockholders; and

  • additions or departures of key personnel.

Item 2. PROPERTIES

There is no private ownership of land in China and all land ownership is held by the government of the PRC, its agencies and collectives. Land use rights can be obtained from the government for a period up to 70 years and are typically renewable. Land use rights can be transferred upon approval by the land administrative authorities of the PRC (State Land Administration Bureau) upon payment of the required land transfer fee.

We did not previously own the building and land we operate on. Those buildings and the land use rights were owned by the Casting Company, one of our major suppliers and the land use rights and the buildings from which Kaifeng Valve operates were leased from the Casting Company. The Casting Company is located on the same piece of land. As a condition precedent to the consummation of the Securities Purchase Agreement related to the private placement of our common stock, on August 26, 2008, Kaifeng Valve and the Casting Company entered into an Agreement for the Transfer of Land Use Right and Housing Titles (the “ Real Estate Transfer Agreement ”) for the transfer of the land use rights for all the land and all the buildings on the land to Kaifeng Valve (the “ Real Estate ”). As the transfer was expected to take up to ten months to complete with relevant Chinese government agencies, on August 26, 2008, Kaifeng Valve and the Casting Company also entered into a Lease Agreement (the “ Lease Agreement ”) pursuant to which the Casting Company agreed to lease the Real Estate to Kaifeng Valve until the latter acquires title to the Real Estate. In addition, Kaifeng Valve and the Casting Company entered into a Leaseback Agreement (the “ Leaseback Agreement ”) pursuant to which Kaifeng Valve agreed to lease back to the Casting Company the portion of the Real Estate and the buildings used by the Casting Company, for a period of one year starting on the date of the acquisition of title to the Real Estate by Kaifeng Valve.

In connection with the Real Estate Transfer Agreement, on August 26, 2008, the Company entered into a Real Estate Share Escrow Agreement with the shareholder of the Casting Company, Mr. Bin Fang, Brean Murray, Carret & Co., LLC and Escrow, LLC (the “ Real Estate Escrow Agreement ”), pursuant to which the Company issued and placed in escrow, for the benefit of Mr. Fang or his designee, 2,750,000 shares of the Company’s common stock in exchange for Mr. Fang’s agreement to cause the Casting Company to transfer the Real Estate under the Real Estate Transfer Agreement. On March 6, 2009, the land use right for the Real Estate was transferred from the Casting Company to Kaifeng Valve and the 2,750,000 shares were released to Mr. Bin Fang.

All the onsite buildings and workplaces are utilized for manufacturing, R&D and administrative purposes. In addition, there is land available on for future expansion.

Item 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS            

On February 4, 2011, a plaintiff filed a purported class action naming the Company, its Chairman and certain present and former senior executives as defendants, asserting claims for certain violations of the securities laws and seeking unspecified damages. The complaint, which is styled Donald Foster, et al. v. China Valves Technology, Inc., et al., is currently pending in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. Substantially identical complaints, styled Donald London, et. al. v. China Valves Technology, Inc., et. al., and Elliott Greenberg, et. al. v. China Valves Technology, Inc. et al., were filed in the same court on February 17, 2011 and March 8, 2011, respectively. The complaints purport to assert claims on behalf of a purported class of persons and entities who purchased shares of the Company’s common stock at allegedly artificially high prices during the period between January 12, 2010 and January 13, 2011 and who suffered damages as a result of such purchases. The allegations in the complaints relate to the Company’s acquisitions of Changsha Valve and Hanwei Valve and include allegations regarding the Company’s financial statements and press releases. The complaints allege, among other things, that the Company’s statements about the nature and quality of the Company’s acquisition of Changsha Valve were materially false and misleading and that the Company’s statements failed to describe the role in the transaction of an alleged related party. In addition, the complaints allege that the Company’s statements about the Hanwei Valve acquisition were materially false and misleading because they failed to disclose the alleged involvement of certain related parties and allegedly misdescribed the transaction as a purchase of assets rather than as a purchase of an entity. The Company has not yet responded to any complaint, but intends to contest the allegations and to defend itself vigorously.

Not required.

Item 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

The following discussion is an overview of the important factors that management focuses on in evaluating our business, financial condition and operating performance and should be read in conjunction with the financial statements included in this Annual Report. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward looking statements as a result of any number of factors, including those set forth under the section entitled “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this Annual Report.


Our Business

Through our subsidiaries and commercial and contractual relationships and arrangements with other Chinese companies, we operate companies in China that develop, manufacture and distribute high quality metal valves for a variety of different industries. We are located in Kaifeng, Henan Province and do business throughout China, Southeast Asia, the Middle-East and Europe. We produce over 800 models of valves and service numerous industries, including the thermal power, water supply, municipal construction, sewage disposal, oil and chemical, metallurgy, heat power, and nuclear power industries. We are the leader in valve sales for the thermal power, water supply industries, oil and chemical, and valve lock in China.

Principal Factors Affecting our Financial Performance
We believe that the following factors affect our financial performance:

  • Growth of China’s Urbanization and Industrialization

The annual growth rate of the valve production industry in China is expected to be 20% for the next few years. This growth is fueled by rapid industrialization and manufacturing industries developing in China. If this growth continues, we believe that the growth rate of the valve production industry will grow at a similar rate and that the Company will be able to sustain its growth and continue to be a leader in the valve production industry in China.

  • PRC Regulations

China has looked favorably on the valve production industry and has loosened regulations to promote manufacturing growth in China, which ultimately benefits China Valves and similarly situated companies. For example, in June 2007, the State Department of China issued a new policy called “Expedite the development of China’s equipment manufacturing industry.” In this policy, the Chinese government committed to promote the development of China’s equipment manufacturing industry, which includes the valve industry, through, among other things, tax incentives, import/export support and capital support. In addition, the stimulus package offered by the Chinese government will provide market opportunities for us. As long as China continues to promote economic growth and allow manufacturing companies to grow and expand their operations, China Valves expects its operations will be positively affected by PRC regulations.

Recent Development

Registered Direct

On January 5, 2011, we conducted a registered direct offering of an aggregate of 1,000,000 shares of our common stock at a price of $10.00 per share for gross proceeds of approximately $10 million, to several accredited institutional investors. In addition, we issued to the investors warrants to purchase 250,000 shares of common stock, in the aggregate, at a price of $10.00 per share, exercisable for 180 days beginning on the date of the initial issuance of the warrants. The proceeds of the financing have or will be used for working capital.

Taxation

United States

We are subject to United States tax at a tax rate of 34%. No provision for US federal income taxes has been made as we had no taxable income in the United States for 2009 and 2010.

Hong Kong

Our subsidiaries, China Fluid and Hong Kong Hanxi are incorporated in Hong Kong. The subsidiaries did not earn any income that was derived in Hong Kong for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 and therefore was not subject to Hong Kong Profit Tax. The payments of dividends by Hong Kong companies are not subject to any Hong Kong withholding tax.

PRC

We conduct all our operating business through its operating subsidiaries in China. The operating subsidiaries are governed by the income tax laws of the PRC, the Company does not have any deferred tax assets or deferred tax liabilities because there are no temporary differences between financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of existing assets and liabilities.


Substantially all of our income may be derived from dividends we receive from our PRC operating subsidiaries described above. 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. We expect that such 10% withholding tax will apply to dividends paid to us by our PRC subsidiaries but this treatment will depend on our status as a non-resident enterprise. For detailed discussion of PRC tax issues related to resident enterprise status, see “Risk Factors — Risks Associated with Doing Business in China”. Under the New EIT Law, China Valves Technology Inc. and its subsidiaries China Fluid Equipment and Henan Tonghai Fluid may be classified as a ‘resident enterprise’ of China. Such a classification would likely result in unfavorable tax consequences to us and our non-PRC stockholders.”

Our Operating Subsidiaries are classified as resident enterprises under the EIT law. Beginning in January 2008, both Kaifeng Valve and ZD Valve became subject to an income tax at an effective rate of 25% under the EIT law. The new acquired operating company, Taide Valve, and Yangzhou Valve is also subject to an income tax rate of 25%. Changsha Valve is subject to an income tax at a reduced rate of 12.5% in 2010, which is the last year of tax benefit period before subjecting to a full 25% tax rate. Hanwei Valve as a high technology enterprise is subject to an income tax at rate of 15% until 2011. The local tax authorities will do a special taxation review regarding its development of high technology at the end of 2011. If the review is positive, Hanwei Valve will be subject to 15% of income tax rate for another three years until another three-year taxation review in 2014. We incurred income taxes of $14.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2010, an increase of $5.9 million or 68.9% from the taxes we incurred in the same 2009 period.

Penalties and interest incurred related to underpayment of income tax are classified as income tax expense in the year incurred. No significant penalties or interest relating to income taxes have been incurred during the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009.

Total sales revenue $  183,696   $  95,370  

Year Ended December 31, 2010 Compared with Year Ended December 31, 2009

Sales Revenue. Sales revenue increased $88.3 million, or 92.6%, to $183.7 million in 2010 from $95.4 million in 2009. The majority of this increase resulted from recently acquired subsidiaries, Yangzhou Valve, Changsha Valve and Hanwei Valve, which contributed $68.4 million to our sales revenue. Adjusting for the effect of changes in exchange rates, our sales revenue increased by 91.3% . The increase was also attributable to increased demand for our products fueled by rapid industrialization and governmental capital expenditure on China’s infrastructure. In addition, our innovations on high temperature high pressure power station gate valves and two-way metal sealing butterfly valves, which are popular among our customers, also contributed to sales volume increases as compared to sales in the same period last year. We also made efforts to expand sales in the petrochemical, oil and nuclear areas, while strengthening the current thermal power and hydro-power market for our products. Our success in adding new types of valves, such as large diameter high pressure valves used in power stations, valves for nuclear power plants, and other large governmental water-pipe projects requiring supplies of 3.5 meter and up diameter valves also helped fuel demand for our products and contributed to the sales increase. Our sales from organic growth accounted for 22.6% of total sales growth while sales from our newly acquired companies accounted for 77.4% of total sales growth.

In 2010, revenues from butterfly valves, gate valves and ball valves constituted 76.5% of our total revenues for the period.

Revenue from butterfly valves for 2010 amounted to $77.2 million which is $40.2 million or 108.7% more than revenue for the same period ended on December 31, 2009. This increase is mainly attributable to the newly acquired subsidiary Changsha Valve whose key product is butterfly valve. It is also due to the fact that we are the sole manufacturer and distributor for the integrated two-way metal sealed butterfly valves used to control municipal water and sewage flow. These new generation butterfly valves have achieved around 90% market share in the largest ten cities in China.


Revenue from gate valves for 2010 amounted to $32.8 million which is $6.2 million or 23.4% more than that of 2009. These increases were attributable to the large increase in power station construction projects in China. By the end of 2007, the Company had developed the capability to manufacture high quality technology intensive forged steel valves for use in ultra supercritical thermal power generators in 1,000MW power stations. The Company is the sole designer and manufacturer in China for this type of valve, which can replace the imported valves used in the thermal power industry. The newly developed, high-margin valves perform as well as the similar advanced overseas products and resulted in a large amount of orders in 2010. The other factor in the sales increase in 2010 was the continued extensive use of gate valves in the petro-chemical and nuclear power industries.

Revenue from ball valves for 2010 amounted to $30.5 million, which is $24.5 million or 411.4% more than that for 2009. This increase was attributable to the recently acquired subsidiary Hanwei Valve.

Cost of Sales. Our cost of sales is primarily comprised of the costs of our raw materials such as steel castings, components, labor and overhead. Our cost of sales increased $54.8 million, or 112.8% to $103.3 million in 2010 from $48.5 million in 2009. The cost of sales, as a percentage of sales revenue, increased from 50.9% in 2009 to 56.2% in 2010. The increase was in line with the increase in sales revenues and was also attributable to from higher labor and management costs of those newly acquired entities. The increase in cost of raw materials also contributed to an increase in cost of sales.

Gross Profit. Our gross profit is equal to the difference between our sales revenue and our cost of sales. Our gross profit increased $33.6 million, or 71.7% to $80.4 million in 2010 from $46.8 million in 2009. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales revenue decreased to 43.8% from 49.1% for the same period in 2009. The decrease in gross profit percentage was because the three recently acquired subsidiaries had lower overall gross profit percentage as the products sold by these subsidiaries during the period, such as gate valves and ball valves, had lower gross profit than that of the butterfly valves and high pressure valves sold by ZD Valve and Kaifeng Valve. In addition, the higher labor and management costs of the new subsidiaries resulted in higher fixed costs per unit and lower overall gross profit percentage. Furthermore, in 2010 the Company sold more medium to low pressure valves, which generally have lower selling prices, which also contributed to the decrease in gross profit percentage. The Company is currently standardizing production methodology and techniques at the new subsidiaries in order to optimize the new subsidiaries’ production capacity.

General and Administrative Expenses. Our general and administrative expenses, which consist primarily of related salaries and benefits, business development, travelling expenses, and legal and professional expenses, were $15.6 million for 2010, compared with $7.3 million for 2009, an increase of $8.3 million or approximately 112.8% .The increase is primarily due to increase in salary expense for the newly acquired subsidiaries, as well as the hire of more educated entry-level administrative and technologic personnel. Professional fees, travel expense and meal and entertainment expenses also increased due to various business acquisition activities. Depreciation expense increased as result of increased fixed asset purchases. General and administrative expenses as percentage of total revenue is 8.5% in 2010 as compared to 7.7% in 2009. The increase is primarily due to the increased expenses added by the recently acquired subsidiaries.

Selling Expenses. Selling expenses, which consist primarily of sales commission, advertising and promotion expenses, sales tax, freight charges and related compensation, were $10.4 million for 2010, compared with $6.3 million for 2009, an increase of $4.1 million or 64.8%, which was in line with the sales revenue increase. However, the implementation of the strengthened cost control policy and the setup of Headquarter of Sales and Marketing in Shanghai resulted in significantly improved marketing activities and brought in more large sales contracts with relatively lower sales and marketing expenses in 2010. The percentage of sales and marketing expenses as percentage of sales was 5.7%, compared to 6.6% in 2009.

Total Operating Expenses. Our total operating expenses increased $12.5 million, or 90.6%, to $26.3 million in 2010 from $13.8 million in 2009, which was in line with the sales revenue increase and mainly attributable to newly acquired subsidiaries.

Income Before Income Taxes. Income before income taxes increased $25.7 million, or 80.7%, to $57.6 million in 2010 from $31.9 million in 2009. Income before income taxes as a percentage of revenue decreased to 31.4% in 2010 from 33.5% in 2009.

Net Income. Net income increased $19.8. million, or 85.0%, to $43.2 million in 2010 from $23.4 million in 2009 as result of 92.6% increase in sales revenue and a lower effective income tax rate in 2010.

Foreign Currency Translation Gains

We had a foreign currency translation gain of $6.1 million in 2010 as compared with a $0.007 million currency translation loss in 2009. In July 2005, China reformed its foreign currency exchange policy and allowed the Renminbi to fluctuate as much as 0.3 percent per day against the U.S. dollar. We use period-end exchange rates in translating our assets and liabilities denominated in Renminbi into U.S. dollars and average exchange rates for the period to translate our income and expenses. At December 31, 2010, the period end exchange rate was RMB1 to US$0.1517 and the average exchange rate for 2010 was RMB1 to US$0.14760. At December 31, 2009, the period end exchange rate was RMB1 to US$0.1467 and the average exchange rate for 2009 was RMB1 to US$0.14661. RMB appreciated approximately 3.4% in 2010 in terms of the period-end exchange rate of 2010 compared with that of 2009.


Our sales revenue increased by RMB 594.1 million or 91.3% compared with the same period in 2009 and our operating expenses increased by RMB 86.0 million or 91.4% compared with the same period in 2009. As the Renminbi appreciated against the U.S. dollar during the period, our reported sales revenues and operating expenses were affected, increasing 92.6% and 90.6%, respectively, in U.S. dollar terms, as follows:

    Year Ended December 31,                          
(in million)         2010                 2009           Change     %        
    US$     Average Rate     RMB     US$     Average Rate     RMB     US$     RMB     US$     RMB  
Revenue   183.7     0.14760     1,244.6     95.4     0.14661     650.5     88.3     594.1     92.6%     91.3%  
Total operating expenses   26.3     0.14760     178.2     13.8     0.14661     94.2     12.5     84.0     90.6%     89.2%  

Allowance for Doubtful Debts

Our trade receivables net of allowance for doubtful accounts were $84.1 million as of December 31, 2010, an increase of $51.8 million, or 160.2%, from $32.3 million as of December 31, 2009. Our allowance for doubtful accounts totaled $998,739 as of December 31, 2010, compared with $908,338 at December 31, 2009.

The increase in our trade receivables was mainly due to recently acquired subsidiaries. Generally we consider a trade receivable as a doubtful account if it remains uncollected for more than one year from the due date or as specific events occurred to our customers which may require us to reserve allowance even if trade balance is below one year. Our allowance for doubtful debts accounts for an insignificant portion of the receivable balance in spite of the increasing trade receivable balance throughout the reporting periods because we have improved our account receivables collections. Many of our customers have long business relationships with us and good settlement histories. In the absence of significant bad debt experience, we consider the existing provisioning policy as adequate.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2010, we had cash and cash equivalents of $25.8 million and restricted cash of $1.2 million. The following table provides summarized information about our net cash flow for 2010 and 2009.

    Years Ended  
    December 31,  
    2010     2009  
    (dollars in thousands)  
Net cash provided (used in) by operating activities $  17,193   $  25,083  
Net cash used in investing activities   (30,599 )   (25,730 )
Net cash provided (used in) by financing activities   24,219     (1,476 )
Effect of foreign currency translation on cash and cash equivalents   523     180  
Net (decrease) increase in cash and cash equivalents   11,336     (1,943 )
Cash and cash equivalents, beginning of year   14,485     16,428  
Cash and cash equivalents, end of year $  25,821   $  14,485  

Operating Activities

In the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, our net cash flow provided by operating activities was $17.2 million, a decrease of $7.9 million from the net cash flow provided by operating activities of $25.1 million for the same period in 2009. This is attributed to an increase of accounts receivables of $49.6 million which offsets a strong increase of net profit of $19.8 million compared with 2009.

Investing Activities

Our main uses of cash for investing activities are for acquisitions of other companies, which the three acquisitions were closed with cash paid by $25.6 million in 2010. Also we spend another $4.3 million on the acquisition of plant and equipment as well as on building improvements. Net cash used in investing activities in 2010 was $30.6 million, as compared with $25.7 million in 2009.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities in 2010 totaled $24.2 million. On January 5, 2010, we completed a registered direct offering of our common shares to certain accredited investors resulting in $23.9 million in net proceeds.

Our debt to equity ratio was 0.26 as of December 31, 2010 as compared to 0.24 as of December 31, 2009. We believe we have greatly improved our company’s position by decreasing our borrowings. We plan to maintain our debt to equity ratio at the ratio as of December 31, 2010.


As of December 31, 2010, the maturities for our bank loans are all below one year.

We believe that we maintain good relationships with the banks we deal with and our current available working capital, after receiving the aggregate proceeds of the capital raising activities and bank loans, should be adequate to sustain our operations at our current levels through at least the next twelve months.

Capital Expenditures

Our capital expenditures in 2010 and 2009 are set forth below. Our capital expenditures were used primarily for plant construction and purchases of equipment to expand our production capacity.

    Years Ended December 31,  
    2010     2009  
    (in thousands)  
Construction costs $  590   $  7,178  
Purchase of equipment $  3,710   $  2,560  
Advance on equipment & construction fee $  125   $  655  
Total capital expenditure $  4,425   $  10,393  

Our depreciation and amortization expense for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the income statement line items in which it is included, was as follows:

    Years Ended December 31,  
    2010     2009  
    (in thousands)  
Cost of goods sold $  1,928   $  945  
General and administrative expenses $  2,942   $  1,011  
Total depreciation and amortization expense $  4,870   $  1,956  

Obligations under Material Contracts

We did not have any long-term debt obligations, capital commitments, purchase obligations or other long-term liabilities as of December 31, 2010.

Business Combinations

On January 13, 2010, the Company acquired the assets of Yangzhou Rock Valve Lock Technology Co., Ltd. for a total cash consideration of $7.2 million. Yangzhou Valve designs, manufactures and distributes interlock valves, valve block devices, magnetic valves, and mechanical interlocking machines.

In February 2010, the Company acquired all the equity interests in Able Delight (Changsha) Valve Co, Ltd., formerly an indirect subsidiary of Watts Water Technologies, Inc. (‘Watts”), for a purchase price of $12.12 million plus certain assumed obligations and acquisition expenses of $2.81 million, or an aggregate expenditure of approximately $15 million. Changsha Valve was purchased from Able Delight Investment, Ltd., which had acquired Changsha Valve from Watts in January 2010 with $6.07 million from funds loaned to it by the Company. The Company directly paid the balance of $8.93 million to other parties as disclosed in 8ka released on November 18, 2010. Able Delight Investment, Ltd. had been formed in November 2009 by Qing Lu, the wife of Bin Li, a 34% stockholder of the Company, in order to facilitate the Company’s purchase of Changsha Valve. The Company’s purchase price included the discharge of the loan, payments to certain of Watt’s subsidiaries, and certain other financial obligations of Changsha Valve. Changsha Valve is a manufacturer of butterfly and other valves used by hydro, thermal and nuclear power plants and in water and sewage treatment applications.

On April 8, 2010, the Company acquired from certain unaffiliated individuals the two entities that were owners of the joint venture that in turn owned Shanghai Pudong Hanwei Valve Co., Ltd. (“Hanwei Valve”), together with certain intangible assets used in the operation of Hanwei Valve, for an aggregate of $19.5 million. Hanwei Valve is a manufacturer of various valve products and the sole producer in China of the fully-welded ball valve used in long distance gas pipelines and the 24-way rotary valve used in the petrochemical industry.

The acquisitions of Yangzhou Valve, Changsha Valve and Hanwei Valve contributed, in the aggregate, $68.4 million to the Company’s 2010 sales revenues, representing 37.2% of such revenues, and contributed significantly to the Company’s 85.0% increase in net income for 2010.


Critical Accounting Policies

Our consolidated financial information has been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which requires us to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect (1) the reported amounts of our assets and liabilities, (2) the disclosure of our contingent assets and liabilities at the end of each fiscal period and (3) the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during each fiscal period. We continually evaluate these estimates based on our own historical experience, knowledge and assessment of current business and other conditions, our expectations regarding the future based on available information and reasonable assumptions, which together form our basis for making judgments about matters that are not readily apparent from other sources. Since the use of estimates is an integral component of the financial reporting process, our actual results could differ from those estimates. Some of our accounting policies require a higher degree of judgment than others in their application.

When reviewing our financial statements, the following should also be considered: (1) our selection of critical accounting policies, (2) the judgment and other uncertainties affecting the application of those policies, and (3) the sensitivity of reported results to changes in conditions and assumptions. We believe the following accounting policies involve the most significant judgment and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements.

Revenue Recognition

The Company’s revenue recognition policies are in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles regarding revenue recognition. Sales revenue is recognized when all of the following have occurred: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, (iii) the price is fixed or determinable, and (iv) the ability to collect is reasonably assured. These criteria are generally satisfied at the time of delivery for domestic sales when risk of loss and title passes to the customer. For international sales, the revenue recognition criteria are generally satisfied under Free on Board (“FOB”) terms, in which the Company’s responsibility ends once the goods clear the port of shipment.

The Company recognizes revenue when the goods are delivered and title has passed. Sales revenue represents the invoiced value of goods, net of a value-added tax (“VAT”). All of the Company’s products that are sold in the PRC are subject to a Chinese value-added tax at a rate of 17% of the gross sales price or at a rate approved by the Chinese local government. This VAT may be offset by the VAT paid by the Company on raw materials and other materials included in the cost of producing their finished product.

The Company allows its customers to retain 5% to 10% of the contract prices as retainage during the warranty period, usually 12 or 24 months, to guarantee product quality. Historically, the Company has experienced insignificant warranty claims resulting in the Company having to repair or exchange a defective product. Due to the infrequency and insignificant amount of warranty claims, the ability to collect retainage is reasonably assured and is recognized at the time of shipment.

The Company also provides services to some of its sales agents and distributors. The Company recognizes revenue on these services once a contract is signed and the services have been rendered.

Foreign Currency Translation and Other Comprehensive Income

The reporting currency of the Company is the US dollar. The functional currency of our Chinese operating entities Kaifeng Valve, ZD Valve, Taizhou Taide Valve, Yangzhou Valve, Changsha Valve and Hanwei Valve is the Renminbi (RMB).

For the subsidiaries whose functional currencies are other than the US dollar, all assets and liabilities accounts were translated at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date; shareholders’ equity is translated at the historical rates and items in the income and cash flow statements are translated at the average rate for the year. Because cash flows are calculated based using the average translation rate, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the statement of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the balance sheet. Translation adjustments resulting from this process are included in accumulated other comprehensive income in the statement of shareholders’ equity. The resulting translation gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the results of operations as incurred.

Accumulated other comprehensive income in the consolidated statement of shareholders’ equity amounted to $12,230,406 and $ 6,151,902 as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The balance sheet amounts with the exception of equity at December 31, 2010 and 2009 were translated at 6.59 RMB and 6.82 RMB to $1.00 USD, respectively. The average translation rates applied to income and cash flow statement amounts for the year ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 were 6.78 RMB and 6.82 RMB to $1.00, respectively.

Income Taxes

The Company applies the accounting standard regarding accounting for income taxes and the accounting standard regarding accounting for uncertainty in income taxes for income taxes. This accounting standard requires recognition of deferred income tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the income tax basis and financial reporting basis of assets and liabilities. Provision for income taxes consist of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes. The charge for taxation is based on the results for the year as adjusted for items that are non-assessable or disallowed. It is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. Deferred taxes are accounted for using the balance sheet liability method in respect of temporary differences arising from differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax basis used in the computation of assessable tax profit. In principle, deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences, and deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilized.


Under the accounting standard regarding, accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, a tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the “more likely than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded. Penalties and interest incurred related to underpayment of income tax are classified as income tax expense in the year incurred. No significant penalties or interest relating to income taxes have been incurred during the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009. GAAP also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.

Warranties

We typically warranty all of our products. It is the Company’s policy to replace parts if they become defective within one year after deployment at no additional charge. Historically, failure of product parts due to materials or workmanship is rare. Therefore, at December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the Company made no provision for warranty claims for our products. Management continuously evaluates the potential warranty obligation. Management will record the expenses related to the warranty obligation if the estimated amount becomes material at the time revenue is recorded.

Concentration Risks

The Company's operations are carried out in the PRC. Accordingly, the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic and legal environment in the PRC, and by the general state of the PRC's economy. The Company's operations in the PRC are subject to specific considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in North America and Western Europe. 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, among other things.

Certain financial instruments may subject the Company to concentration of credit risk. The Company maintains bank deposits within state-owned banks within the PRC, Hong Kong and United States. Balances at financial institutions of state owned banks within the PRC are not covered by insurance. As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company’s cash and restricted cash balances, totaling $26,596,872 and $14,505,745, respectively at those dates, were not covered by insurance. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant risks on its cash in bank accounts.

Five suppliers represented approximately 24% and 17% of the Company’s total purchases for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Five customers accounted for 9% and 11% of total sales as of December 31, 2010 and 2009 respectively.

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company’s business operations are conducted in the PRC. During the normal course of business, the Company extends unsecured credit to its customers by selling on various credit terms. Management reviews its accounts receivable on a quarterly basis to determine if the allowance for doubtful accounts is adequate. An estimate for doubtful accounts is recorded when collection of the full amount is no longer probable. The Company’s existing reserve is consistent with its historical experience and considered adequate by the management.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company adopted SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” on January 1, 2008. SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measures. The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for receivables and payables qualify as financial instruments and are a reasonable estimate of fair value because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and their current market rate of interest. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the assets or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instruments.

Level 3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value.

The Company analyzes all financial instruments with features of both liabilities and equity under the accounting standards regarding accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity, accounting for derivative instruments and hedging activities, accounting for derivative financial instruments indexed to, and potentially settled in, a company’s own stock, and the accounting standard regarding determining whether an instrument (or embedded feature) is indexed to an entity’s own stock. The accounting standard specifies that a contract that would otherwise meet the definition of a derivative but is both (a) indexed to the Company’s own stock and (b) classified in stockholders’ equity in the statement of financial position would not be considered a derivative financial instrument. This standard provides a two-step model to be applied in determining whether a financial instrument or an embedded feature is indexed to an issuer’s own stock and thus able to qualify for this accounting standard scope exception. All warrants issued by the Company are denominated in USD; because the Company’s functional currency is the RMB, the Company accounts for these warrants as derivative instrument liabilities and marks them to market each period. Because there is no quoted or observable market price for the warrants, the Company used level 3 inputs for its valuation methodology.


The Company invested in China Perfect Machinery Industry Co., Ltd. in 1996 and Kaifang Commercial Bank in 1997. These long term investments are carried at the lower of cost or market value and amounted to $790,572 and $764,515 as of December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. There is no quoted or observable market price for these investments; therefore, the Company used level 3 inputs for its valuation methodology. Based on its proportionate share of the underlying book value of the investees, the Company believes the fair value of the investments is at least equal to the original cost. The determination of the fair value was based on the capital investment that the Company contributed. There has been no change in the carrying value since inception, other than the effects of translating the balances to US dollars.

Long-lived Assets

Long lived assets, including buildings and improvements, equipment and intangible assets are reviewed if events and changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying amount may not be recoverable, to determine whether their carrying value has become impaired. The Company considers assets to be impaired if the carrying value exceeds the future projected cash flows from related operations. The Company also re-evaluates the periods of depreciation and amortization to determine whether subsequent events and circumstances warrant revised estimates of useful lives. For the year-ended December 31, 2010, the Company impaired long lived assets in the amount of $1,341,962, which were included in cost of goods sold.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquisition over the fair value of the net assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized, but is instead tested for impairment. Goodwill is reviewed for impairment annually in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. The goodwill impairment test is a two-step test. Under the first step, the fair value of the reporting unit is compared with its carrying value (including goodwill). If the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value, an indication of goodwill impairment exists for the reporting unit and the enterprise must perform step two of the impairment test (measurement). Under step two, an impairment loss is recognized for any excess of the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill over the implied fair value of that goodwill. The implied fair value of goodwill is determined by allocating the fair value of the reporting unit in a manner similar to a purchase price allocation and the residual fair value after this allocation is the implied fair value of the reporting unit goodwill. Fair value of the reporting unit is determined using a discounted cash flow analysis. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, step two does not need to be performed. The Company performs its annual impairment review of goodwill every year at December 31 and when a triggering event occurs between annual impairment tests. No impairment loss was recorded for the year ended December 31, 2010.

Stock Based Compensation

The Company applies Statement of Financial Accounting Standards on “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”, which defines a fair-value-based method of accounting for stock based employee compensation and transactions in which an entity issues its equity instruments to acquire goods and services from non-employees. Stock compensation for stock granted to non-employees has been determined in accordance with the standard and the "Accounting for Equity Instruments that are issued to Other than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling Goods or Services" standard, as the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measured. The standard allows the “simplified” method to determine the term of employee options when other information is not available.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements

In January 2010, FASB issued ASU No. 2010-02 regarding accounting and reporting for decreases in ownership of a subsidiary. Under this guidance, an entity is required to deconsolidate a subsidiary when the entity ceases to have a controlling financial interest in the subsidiary. Upon deconsolidation of a subsidiary, and entity recognizes a gain or loss on the transaction and measures any retained investment in the subsidiary at fair value. In contrast, an entity is required to account for a decrease in its ownership interest of a subsidiary that does not result in a change of control of the subsidiary as an equity transaction. This ASU clarifies the scope of the decrease in ownership provisions, and expands the disclosures about the deconsolidation of a subsidiary or de-recognition of a group of assets. This ASU is effective for beginning in the first interim or annual reporting period ending on or after December 31, 2009. The Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements In January 2010, FASB issued ASU No. 2010-02 – Accounting and Reporting for Decreases in Ownership of a Subsidiary – a Scope Clarification. The amendments in this Update affect accounting and reporting by an entity that experiences a decrease in ownership in a subsidiary that is a business or nonprofit activity. The amendments also affect accounting and reporting by an entity that exchanges a group of assets that constitutes a business or nonprofit activity for an equity interest in another entity. The amendments in this update are effective beginning in the period that an entity adopts SFAS No. 160, “Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements – An Amendment of ARB No. 51.” If an entity has previously adopted SFAS No. 160 as of the date the amendments in this update are included in the Accounting Standards Codification, the amendments in this update are effective beginning in the first interim or annual reporting period ending on or after December 15, 2009. The amendments in this update should be applied retrospectively to the first period that an entity adopted SFAS No. 160. The Company adopted this standard and the adoption of this standard did not have material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.


In January 2010, FASB issued ASU No. 2010-06 – Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements. This update provides amendments to Subtopic 820-10 that requires new disclosure as follows: 1) Transfers in and out of Levels 1 and 2. A reporting entity should disclose separately the amounts of significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and describe the reasons for the transfers. 2) Activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. In the reconciliation for fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3), a reporting entity should present separately information about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements (that is, on a gross basis rather than as one net number).This update provides amendments to Subtopic 820-10 that clarify existing disclosures as follows: 1) Level of disaggregation. A reporting entity should provide fair value measurement disclosures for each class of assets and liabilities. A class is often a subset of assets or liabilities within a line item in the statement of financial position. A reporting entity needs to use judgment in determining the appropriate classes of assets and liabilities. 2) Disclosures about inputs and valuation techniques. A reporting entity should provide disclosures about the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. Those disclosures are required for fair value measurements that fall in either Level 2 or Level 3.The new disclosures and clarifications of existing disclosures are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU. However, the Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-09, “Subsequent Events (Topic 855): Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements,” or ASU 2010-09. ASU 2010-09 primarily rescinds the requirement that, for listed companies, financial statements clearly disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. Subsequent events must still be evaluated through the date of financial statement issuance; however, the disclosure requirement has been removed to avoid conflicts with other SEC guidelines. ASU 2010-09 was effective immediately upon issuance and was adopted in February 2010.

In April 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-13, “Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Effect of Denominating the Exercise Price of a Share-Based Payment Award in the Currency of the Market in Which the Underlying Equity Security Trades,” or ASU 2010-13. ASU 2010-13 provides amendments to Topic 718 to clarify that an employee share-based payment award with an exercise price denominated in currency of a market in which a substantial porting of the entity’s equity securities trades should not be considered to contain a condition that is not a market, performance, or service condition. Therefore, an entity would not classify such an award as a liability if it otherwise qualifies as equity. The amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2010. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2010-17 to have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In April 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update 2010-17, “Revenue Recognition—Milestone Method (Topic 605): Milestone Method of Revenue Recognition” or ASU 2010-17. This Update provides guidance on the recognition of revenue under the milestone method, which allows a vendor to adopt an accounting policy to recognize all of the arrangement consideration that is contingent on the achievement of a substantive milestone (milestone consideration) in the period the milestone is achieved. The pronouncement is effective on a prospective basis for milestones achieved in fiscal years and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after June 15, 2010. The adoption of ASU 2010-17 does not have any significant impacts on the consolidated financial statements.

In July 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-20, “Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses.” This update amends codification topic 310 on receivables to improve the disclosures that an entity provides about the credit quality of its financing receivables and the related allowance for credit losses. As a result of these amendments, an entity is required to disaggregate by portfolio segment or class certain existing disclosures and provide certain new disclosures about its financing receivables and related allowance for credit losses. This guidance is being phased in, with the new disclosure requirements for period end balances effective as of December 31, 2010, and the new disclosure requirements for activity during the reporting period are effective March 31, 2011. The troubled debt restructuring disclosures in this ASU have been delayed by ASU 2011-01 “Deferral of the Effective Date of Disclosures about Troubled Debt Restructurings in Update No. 2010-20,” which was issued in January 2011.

In December 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-28 which amend “Intangibles- Goodwill and Other” (Topic 350). The ASU modifies Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test for reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts. For those reporting entities, they are required to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test if it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists. An entity should consider whether there are any adverse qualitative factors indicating that impairment may exist. The qualitative factors are consistent with the existing guidance in Topic 350, which requires that goodwill of a reporting unit be tested for impairment between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances changes that would more likely than not reduce the faire value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. ASU 2010-28 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2010. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU; however, the Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In December 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-29 which address diversity in practice about the interpretation of the pro forma revenue and earnings disclosure requirements for business combinations (Topic 805). This ASU specifies that if a public entity presents comparative financial statements, the entity should disclose revenue and earnings of the combined entity as though the business combination(s) that occurred during the current year had occurred as of the beginning of the comparable prior annual reporting period only. This ASU also expands the supplemental pro forma disclosures under Topic 805 to include a description of the nature and amount of material, nonrecurring pro forma adjustments directly attributable to the business combination included in the reported pro forma revenue and earnings. ASU 2010-29 is effective prospectively for business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2010. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU and expected the adoption of this ASU will have an impact on its future business combinations.

DISCLOSURES.

We were notified that, effective January 1, 2010, certain partners of MSWFT and Frost, PLLC (“Frost”) formed Frazer Frost, LLP (“Frazer Frost”), a new partnership.

Frazer Frost is registered with the Public Company Accounting and Oversight Board (PCAOB).

Item 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, Mr. Jianbao Wang and Mr. Gang Wei, respectively, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports, such as this report, that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, Mr. Wang and Mr. Wei concluded that because of the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting described below, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2010, to satisfy the objectives for which they are intended.

(b) Management’s annual report on internal control over financial reporting

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Company. Internal control over financial reporting refers to the process designed by, or under the supervision of, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, and effected by our Board of Directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and includes those policies and procedures that:


  • pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;

  • provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with the authorization of our management and directors; and

  • provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

During our assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010, our management identified material weakness related to the following:

Control Environment - The Company’s control environment did not sufficiently promote effective internal control over financial reporting. Specifically, the Company did not conduct a comprehensive risk assessment during the year with all of its major transactions. In addition, the lack of oversight from top management also results in incomplete disclosure on its acquisitions.

Accounting and Finance Personnel Weaknesses US GAAP expertise. Our current accounting staff is relatively new and inexperienced, and needs substantial training to meet the higher demands of being a U.S. public company. The accounting skills and understanding necessary to fulfill the requirements of U.S. GAAP-based reporting, including the skills of subsidiary financial statements consolidation, are inadequate and were inadequately supervised. The lack of sufficient and adequately trained accounting and finance personnel resulted in ineffective top level review and analysis of year-end evaluation of the Company’s inventory and AR allowance.

As disclosed in our Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting filed with the 2009 Form 10-K, the Company's management has identified the steps necessary to address the material weaknesses described above and in 2010, we continued to implement these remedial procedures.

1. Hire, as needed, additional US GAAP experienced accounting and operations personnel and outside contractors with technical accounting expertise and reorganized the accounting and finance department to ensure that accounting personnel with adequate experience, skills and knowledge relating to complex, non-routine transactions are directly involved in the review and accounting evaluation of our complex, non-routine transactions.

2. Involve, as needed, both internal accounting and operations personnel and outside contractors with technical accounting expertise early in the evaluation of our complex, non-routine transaction to obtain additional guidance as to the application of generally accepted accounting principles to such a proposed transaction.

3. Require that our senior accounting personnel and the principal accounting officer review our complex, non-routine transactions to evaluate and approve the accounting treatment for such transactions. We will also consult experts in the event that transaction is beyond our comprehension.

4. We are currently documenting and implementing internal control over financial reporting, however, as of December 31, 2010, we did not have sufficient time to remediate all deficiencies identified in order to render current year’s internal control over financial reporting effective. We will continue monitor and improve controls over financial reporting in the coming year.

Our management is not aware that the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting causes them to believe that any material inaccuracies or errors existed in our financial statement as of December 31, 2010. The reportable conditions and other areas of our internal control over financial reporting identified by us as needing improvement have not resulted in a material restatement of our financial statements. Nor are we aware of any instance where such reportable conditions or other identified areas of weakness have resulted in a material misstatement or omission in any report we have filed with or submitted to the Commission.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies and procedures may deteriorate.

Management remains committed to improving its internal controls and will continue to work to put effective controls in place. The Company is actively recruiting staff with good knowledge of U.S. GAAP to assist in the Company’s financial reporting.

The Company’s independent public accounting firm has audited and issued a report on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting which is included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K and incorporated by reference herein.

(c) Changes in internal control over financial reporting

Except as described above, there were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during our fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.



REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and
Stockholders of China Valves Technologies, Inc

We have audited China Valves Technologies, Inc.’s and Subsidiaries’ (the “Company’s”) internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audit 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 effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

A material weakness is a control deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, 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. The following material weakness has been identified and included in management’s assessment.

Control Environment - The Company’s control environment did not sufficiently promote effective internal control over financial reporting. Specifically, the Company did not conduct a comprehensive risk assessment during the year with all of its major transactions. In addition, the lack of oversight from top management also result in incomplete disclosure on its acquisitions. These control deficiencies by themselves do not directly result in a material misstatement to the financial statements; however, deficiencies in the control environment are pervasive in nature.


Accounting and Finance Personnel Weaknesses US GAAP expertise. The Company’s current accounting staff is relatively new and inexperienced, and needs substantial training to meet the higher demands of being a U.S. public company. The accounting skills and understanding necessary to fulfill the requirements of U.S. GAAP-based reporting, including the skills of subsidiary financial statements consolidation, are inadequate and were inadequately supervised. The lack of sufficient and adequately trained accounting and finance personnel resulted in ineffective top level review and analysis of year-end evaluation of the Company’s inventory and AR allowance This material weakness was considered in determining the nature, timing, and extent of audit tests applied in our audit of the 2010 financial statements, and this report does not affect our report dated March 16, 2011 on those financial statements.

In our opinion, because of the effect of the material weakness described above on the achievement of the objectives of the control criteria, the Company has not maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets and the related statements of income and other comprehensive income, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows of the Company, and our report dated March 16, 2011 expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements.

Under the terms of the indemnification agreement, we agreed to indemnify the independent director against expenses, judgments, fines, penalties or other amounts actually and reasonably incurred by the independent director in connection with any proceeding if the independent director acted in good faith and in our best interests. It is our practice to reimburse our directors for reasonable travel expenses related to attendance at board of directors and committee meetings.

On November 22, 2008, the Company appointed Peter Li and William Haus as new directors of the Company to fill the vacancies created by Huifeng Chen and Renrui Tang’s resignations from the board on the same day.

Limitation of Liability and Indemnification of Officers and Directors

Our bylaws provide for the indemnification of our present and prior directors and officers or any person who may have served at our request as a director or officer of another corporation in which we own shares of capital stock or of which we are a creditor against expenses actually and necessarily incurred by them in connection with the defense of any actions, suits or proceedings in which they, or any of them, are made parties, or a party, by reason of being or having been director(s) or officer(s) of us or of such other corporation, in the absence of negligence or misconduct in the performance of their duties. This indemnification policy could result in substantial expenditure by us, which we may be unable to recoup.

Insofar as indemnification by us for liabilities arising under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to provisions of the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification by such director, officer or controlling person of us in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by us is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

At the present time, there is no pending litigation or proceeding involving a director, officer, employee or other agent of ours in which indemnification would be required or permitted. We are not aware of any threatened litigation or proceeding which may result in a claim for such indemnification.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and
Stockholders of China Valves Technologies, Inc

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of China Valves Technologies, Inc and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related statements of income and other comprehensive income, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2010. The Company’s management is responsible for these financial statements. 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 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2010 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO), and our report dated March 16, 2011 expressed an adverse opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting because of material weaknesses.

CHINA VALVES TECHNOLOGY, INC AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

See report of independent registered public accounting firm.

F-6



The results of operations of the three acquired entities, Yangzhou Rock, Changsha Valve and Hanwei Valve, are included in the consolidated statement of income since the acquisition dates in accordance to the acquisition method in ASC 805.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("US GAAP"). In the opinion of management, the accompanying balance sheets, and statements of income and other comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity and cash flows include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring items, considered necessary to give a fair presentation of operating results for the periods presented. All material inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

The Renminbi (RMB) of the People’s Republic of China has been determined to be the Company’s functional currency. The balance sheets were translated at year end exchange rates. Expenses were translated at moving average exchange rates in effect during the periods. The effects of rate changes on assets and liabilities are recorded as accumulated other comprehensive income.

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

China Valves Technology Inc. is a holding company which conducts its business through its operating subsidiaries. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and the Company’s wholly indirectly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated. The results of companies acquired during the year are included in the consolidated financial statements from the effective date of acquisition.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the useful lives of fixed assets; the allowance for doubtful accounts; the fair value determination of financial and equity instruments, realizability of inventories; the recoverability of goodwill, intangible assets, land use rights, plant and equipment; and accruals for income tax uncertainties and other contingencies. The current economic environment has increased the degree of uncertainty inherent in these estimates and assumptions.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

The Company’s revenue recognition policies are in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles regarding revenue recognition. Sales revenue is recognized when all of the following have occurred: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, (iii) the price is fixed or determinable, and (iv) the ability to collect is reasonably assured. These criteria are generally satisfied at the time of delivery for domestic sales when risk of loss and title passes to the customer. For international sales, the revenue recognition criteria are generally satisfied under Free on Board (“FOB”) terms, in which the Company’s responsibility ends once the goods clear the port of shipment.

The Company recognizes revenue when the goods are delivered and title has passed. Sales revenue represents the invoiced value of goods, net of a value-added tax (“VAT”). All of the Company’s products that are sold in the PRC are subject to a Chinese value-added tax at a rate of 17% of the gross sales price or at a rate approved by the Chinese local government. This VAT may be offset by the VAT paid by the Company on raw materials and other materials included in the cost of producing their finished product.

The Company allows its customers to retain 5% to 10% of the contract prices as retainage during the warranty period, usually 12 or 24 months, to guarantee product quality. Historically, the Company has experienced insignificant warranty claims resulting in the Company having to repair or exchange a defective product. Due to the infrequency and insignificant amount of warranty claims, the ability to collect retainage is reasonably assured and is recognized at the time of shipment.

The Company also provides services to some of its sales agents and distributors. The Company recognizes revenue on these services once a contract is signed and the services have been rendered.

WARRANTIES

The Company typically warranty all of its products and provide replacement or credit to its customers who are not satisfied with the products for a period of one year from the date of shipment. The Company has not established reserve funds for potential customer claims because, historically, the Company has not experienced significant customer complaints about its products. The Company believes that its customer support teams, quality assurance team and manufacturing monitoring procedures will continue to keep claims at a level that does not support a need for a reserve. The Company reviews customer returns on a monthly basis and may establish a reserve when necessary.

See report of independent registered public accounting firm.

F-7


COST OF GOODS SOLD

Cost of goods sold consists primarily of direct material costs, direct labor costs, direct depreciation and related direct expenses attributable to the production of the products. Inbound shipping and handling costs and purchasing are included in direct material costs. Manufacturing overhead includes expenses such as indirect labor, depreciation as it relates to the cost of production, rent, utilities, receiving costs, and equipment maintenance and repairs.

SHIPPING AND HANDLING

Shipping and handling costs incurred for shipping of finished products to customers are included in selling expense and totaled $1,131,575 and $386,929 for the years ended December 31, 2010, and 2009, respectively.

ADVERTISING

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and totaled $153,159 and $36,834 for the years ended December 31, 2010, and 2009, respectively.

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION AND OTHER COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

The reporting currency of the Company is the US dollar. The functional currency of the Company and the local currency of its operating subsidiaries is the Chinese Renminbi (RMB).

For those entities whose currency is other than the US dollar, all assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date; shareholders’ equity is translated at historical rates and items in the statements of income and of cash flows are translated at the average rate for the period. Because cash flows are translated based on the average translation rate, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported in the statement of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances in the balance sheet. Translation adjustments resulting from this process are included in accumulated other comprehensive income in the statement of shareholders’ equity. Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the results of operations as incurred.

The balance sheet amounts with the exception of equity at December 31, 2010 and 2009 were translated at 6.59 RMB and 6.82 RMB to $1.00. The average translation rates applied to the statements of operations and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 were 6.76 RMB and 6.82 RMB to $1.00, respectively.

PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

Plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated life of the asset, ranging from five to thirty years.

Construction in progress represents direct costs of construction as well as acquisition and design fees incurred. Capitalization of these costs ceases and the construction in progress is transferred to plant and equipment when substantially all the activities necessary to prepare the assets for their intended use are completed. Interest incurred during construction is capitalized into construction in progress. All other interest is expensed as incurred. No depreciation is provided until construction is completed and the asset is ready for its intended use. Maintenance, repairs and minor renewals are charged directly to expenses as incurred. Major additions and betterments to property and equipment are capitalized.

INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Intangible assets consist of patents, software and land use rights. Patents and software are subject to amortization. Patents are being amortized over 5-20 years as management believes those are the estimated useful life of the patents currently owned by the Company. Land use rights are carried at cost and charged to expense on a straight-line basis over the period the rights are granted, 46.4 - 50 years. Software is amortized over 10 years, its estimated useful life.

GOODWILL

Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquisition over the fair value of the net assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized, but is instead tested for impairment. Goodwill is reviewed for impairment annually in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. The goodwill impairment test is a two-step test. Under the first step, the fair value of the reporting unit is compared with its carrying value (including goodwill). If the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value, an indication of goodwill impairment exists for the reporting unit and the enterprise must perform step two of the impairment test (measurement). Under step two, an impairment loss is recognized for any excess of the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill over the implied fair value of that goodwill. The implied fair value of goodwill is determined by allocating the fair value of the reporting unit in a manner similar to a purchase price allocation and the residual fair value after this allocation is the implied fair value of the reporting unit goodwill. Fair value of the reporting unit is determined using a discounted cash flow analysis. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, step two does not need to be performed. The Company performs its annual impairment review of goodwill every year at December 31 and when a triggering event occurs between annual impairment tests. No impairment loss was recorded for the year ended December 31, 2010.

See report of independent registered public accounting firm.

F-8


LONG-LIVED ASSETS

Long lived assets, including buildings and improvements, equipment and intangible assets are reviewed if events and changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying amount may not be recoverable, to determine whether their carrying value has become impaired. The Company considers assets to be impaired if the carrying value exceeds the future projected cash flows from related operations. The Company also re-evaluates the periods of depreciation and amortization to determine whether subsequent events and circumstances warrant revised estimates of useful lives. For the year-ended December 31, 2010, the Company impaired long lived assets in the amount of $1,341,962, which were included in cost of goods sold.

INVENTORIES

The Company values its inventories at the lower of cost or market, determined on a weighted average method, or net realizable value. The Company reviews its inventories periodically to determine if any reserves are necessary for potential obsolescence or if a write down is necessary because the carrying value exceeds net realizable value.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT COSTS

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. The costs of material and equipment that are acquired or constructed for research and development activities and which have alternative future uses, either in research and development, marketing, or sales, are classified as property and equipment and depreciated over their estimated useful lives.

RETIREMENT BENEFIT COSTS

Amounts payable to the PRC state managed retirement benefit programs are expensed in the financial statements following the accrual basis of accounting.

INCOME TAXES

The Company applies the accounting standard regarding accounting for income taxes and the accounting standard regarding accounting for uncertainty in income taxes for income taxes. This accounting standard requires recognition of deferred income tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the income tax basis and financial reporting basis of assets and liabilities. Provision for income taxes consist of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes. The charge for taxation is based on the results for the year as adjusted for items that are non-assessable or disallowed. It is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. Deferred taxes are accounted for using the balance sheet liability method in respect of temporary differences arising from differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax basis used in the computation of assessable tax profit. In principle, deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences, and deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilized.

Under the accounting standard regarding, accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, a tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the “more likely than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded. Penalties and interest incurred related to underpayment of income tax are classified as income tax expense in the year incurred. No significant penalties or interest relating to income taxes have been incurred during the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009. GAAP also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

Cash and cash equivalents comprise of cash in banks and on hand, demand deposits with banks and other financial institutions, and short-term, highly liquid investments which are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value, having been within three months of maturity at acquisition.

The Company’s restricted cash consists of cash in the bank as security for its product shipments, notes payable, government required housing fund, and cash held in escrow pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement entered into on August 26, 2008. For restricted cash held in bank, the restriction is released after the customers have received and inspected the products. The Company has notes payable outstanding with various banks and is required to keep certain amounts on deposit that are subject to withdrawal restrictions. Cash held in escrow pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement is released after the Company satisfies certain covenants as stated in the Securities Purchase Agreement. Restricted cash amounted to $ 1,164,598 and $1,047,389 as of December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.

CONCENTRATION RISKS

The Company's operations are carried out in the PRC. Accordingly, the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic and legal environment in the PRC, and by the general state of the PRC's economy. The Company's operations in the PRC are subject to specific considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in North America and Western Europe. The Company's results may be adversely affected by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, restrictions on currency conversion and remittance abroad, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things.

Certain financial instruments may subject the Company to concentration of credit risk. The Company maintains bank deposits within state-owned banks within the PRC, Hong Kong and United States. Balances at financial institutions of state owned banks within the PRC are not covered by insurance. As of December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the Company’s cash and restricted cash balances, totaling $26,596,872 and $14,505,745 respectively at those dates, were not covered by insurance. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant risks on its cash in bank accounts.

Five major suppliers, including a related party, represented approximately 24% and 17% of the Company’s total purchases for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Five major customers represented approximately 9% and 11% of the Company’s total sales for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The accounting standards regarding disclosures about fair value of financial instruments defines financial instruments and required fair value disclosure of those instruments. This accounting standard defines fair value, establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measures. Receivables, investments, payables, short and long term debt and warrant liabilities qualified as financial instruments. Management believes the carrying amounts of receivables, payables and debt are a reasonable estimate of fair value because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments, their expected realization, and if applicable, their stated interest rate is equivalent to interest rates currently available. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the assets or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instruments.

Level 3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value.

The Company analyzes all financial instruments with features of both liabilities and equity under the accounting standards regarding accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity, accounting for derivative instruments and hedging activities, accounting for derivative financial instruments indexed to, and potentially settled in, a company’s own stock, and the accounting standard regarding determining whether an instrument (or embedded feature) is indexed to an entity’s own stock. The accounting standard specifies that a contract that would otherwise meet the definition of a derivative but is both (a) indexed to the Company’s own stock and (b) classified in stockholders’ equity in the statement of financial position would not be considered a derivative financial instrument. This standard provides a two-step model to be applied in determining whether a financial instrument or an embedded feature is indexed to an issuer’s own stock and thus able to qualify for this accounting standard scope exception. All warrants issued by the Company are denominated in USD; because the Company’s functional currency is the RMB, the Company accounts for these warrants as derivative instrument liabilities and marks them to market each period. Because there is no quoted or observable market price for the warrants, the Company used level 3 inputs for its valuation methodology.

See report of independent registered public accounting firm.

The Company invested in China Perfect Machinery Industry Co., Ltd. in 1996 and Kaifeng Commercial Bank in 1997. There is no quoted or observable market price for these investments; therefore, the Company used level 3 inputs for its valuation methodology. Based on its proportionate share of the underlying book value of the investees, the Company believes the fair value of the investments is at least equal to the original cost. The determination of the fair value was based on the capital investment that the Company contributed. There has been no change in the carrying value since inception, other than the effects of translating the balances to US dollars.

A discussion of the valuation technique used to measure the fair value of the warrant liabilities is provided in Note 13.

RECEIVABLES

The Company’s business operations are conducted in the PRC by selling on various credit terms. Management reviews its receivables on a quarterly basis to determine if the allowance for doubtful accounts is adequate. An estimate for doubtful accounts is recorded when collection of the full amount is no longer probable. Known bad debts are written off against the allowance for doubtful accounts when identified. The Company’s existing reserve is consistent with its historical experience and considered adequate by management.

EARNINGS PER SHARE

The Company reports earnings per share in accordance with the provisions of the accounting standard regarding "Earnings per Share." This accounting standard requires presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share in conjunction with the disclosure of the methodology used in computing such earnings per share. Basic earnings per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share takes into account the potential dilution (using the treasury stock method) that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised and converted into common stock.

Common stock equivalents represent the dilutive effect of the assumed exercise of the outstanding stock options and warrants, using the treasury stock method, at either the beginning of the respective period presented or the date of issuance, whichever is later, and only if the common stock equivalents are considered dilutive based upon the Company's net income (loss) position at the calculation date.

OTHER INVESTMENTS

The Company invested in China Perfect Machinery Industry Co., Ltd. in 1996 and Kaifeng Commercial Bank in 1997. The Company owns approximately 0.07% of China Perfect Machinery Industry Co. Ltd. and approximately 0.82% of Kaifeng Commercial Bank. The Company does not have the ability to exercise control over the investee companies and the investments have been recorded under the cost method. These long term investments amounted to and $790,572 and $764,515 as of December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.

See report of independent registered public accounting firm.

The Company evaluates potential impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the investments may not be recoverable. For investments carried at cost, the Company recognizes impairment in the event that the carrying value of the investment exceeds the Company’s proportionate share of the net book value of the investee. As of December 31, 2010, management believes no impairment charge is necessary.

CUSTOMER DEPOSITS

Customer deposits represent amounts advanced by customers on product orders. The product normally is shipped within six months after receipt of the advance payment and the related sale is recognized in accordance with the Company’s revenue recognition policy. As of December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, customer deposits amounted to $6,499,833 and $3,325,906, respectively.

STOCK COMPENSATION

The Company applies the accounting standard regarding accounting for stock compensation, which defines a fair-value-based method of accounting for stock based employee compensation and transactions in which an entity issues its equity instruments to acquire goods and services from employees and non-employees. Stock compensation for stock granted to non-employees has been determined in accordance with this accounting standard and the accounting standard regarding accounting for equity instruments that are issued to other than employees for acquiring, or in conjunction with selling goods or services, as the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measured. This accounting standard allows the “simplified” method to determine the term of employee options when other information is not available.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In January 2010, FASB issued ASU No. 2010-02 regarding accounting and reporting for decreases in ownership of a subsidiary. Under this guidance, an entity is required to deconsolidate a subsidiary when the entity ceases to have a controlling financial interest in the subsidiary. Upon deconsolidation of a subsidiary, and entity recognizes a gain or loss on the transaction and measures any retained investment in the subsidiary at fair value. In contrast, an entity is required to account for a decrease in its ownership interest of a subsidiary that does not result in a change of control of the subsidiary as an equity transaction. This ASU clarifies the scope of the decrease in ownership provisions, and expands the disclosures about the deconsolidation of a subsidiary or de-recognition of a group of assets. This ASU is effective for beginning in the first interim or annual reporting period ending on or after December 31, 2009. The Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements In January 2010, FASB issued ASU No. 2010-02 – Accounting and Reporting for Decreases in Ownership of a Subsidiary – a Scope Clarification. The amendments in this Update affect accounting and reporting by an entity that experiences a decrease in ownership in a subsidiary that is a business or nonprofit activity. The amendments also affect accounting and reporting by an entity that exchanges a group of assets that constitutes a business or nonprofit activity for an equity interest in another entity. The amendments in this update are effective beginning in the period that an entity adopts SFAS No. 160, “Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements – An Amendment of ARB No. 51.” If an entity has previously adopted SFAS No. 160 as of the date the amendments in this update are included in the Accounting Standards Codification, the amendments in this update are effective beginning in the first interim or annual reporting period ending on or after December 15, 2009. The amendments in this update should be applied retrospectively to the first period that an entity adopted SFAS No. 160. The Company adopted this standard and the adoption of this standard did not have material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In January 2010, FASB issued ASU No. 2010-06 – Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements. This update provides amendments to Subtopic 820-10 that requires new disclosure as follows: 1) Transfers in and out of Levels 1 and 2. A reporting entity should disclose separately the amounts of significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and describe the reasons for the transfers. 2) Activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. In the reconciliation for fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3), a reporting entity should present separately information about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements (that is, on a gross basis rather than as one net number).This update provides amendments to Subtopic 820-10 that clarify existing disclosures as follows: 1) Level of disaggregation. A reporting entity should provide fair value measurement disclosures for each class of assets and liabilities. A class is often a subset of assets or liabilities within a line item in the statement of financial position. A reporting entity needs to use judgment in determining the appropriate classes of assets and liabilities. 2) Disclosures about inputs and valuation techniques. A reporting entity should provide disclosures about the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. Those disclosures are required for fair value measurements that fall in either Level 2 or Level 3.The new disclosures and clarifications of existing disclosures are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU. However, the Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-09, “Subsequent Events (Topic 855): Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements,” or ASU 2010-09. ASU 2010-09 primarily rescinds the requirement that, for listed companies, financial statements clearly disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. Subsequent events must still be evaluated through the date of financial statement issuance; however, the disclosure requirement has been removed to avoid conflicts with other SEC guidelines. ASU 2010-09 was effective immediately upon issuance and was adopted in February 2010.

In April 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-13, “Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Effect of Denominating the Exercise Price of a Share-Based Payment Award in the Currency of the Market in Which the Underlying Equity Security Trades,” or ASU 2010-13. ASU 2010-13 provides amendments to Topic 718 to clarify that an employee share-based payment award with an exercise price denominated in currency of a market in which a substantial porting of the entity’s equity securities trades should not be considered to contain a condition that is not a market, performance, or service condition. Therefore, an entity would not classify such an award as a liability if it otherwise qualifies as equity. The amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2010. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2010-17 to have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In April 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update 2010-17, “Revenue Recognition—Milestone Method (Topic 605): Milestone Method of Revenue Recognition” or ASU 2010-17. This Update provides guidance on the recognition of revenue under the milestone method, which allows a vendor to adopt an accounting policy to recognize all of the arrangement consideration that is contingent on the achievement of a substantive milestone (milestone consideration) in the period the milestone is achieved. The pronouncement is effective on a prospective basis for milestones achieved in fiscal years and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after June 15, 2010. The adoption of ASU 2010-17 does not have any significant impacts on the consolidated financial statements.

In July 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-20, “Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses.” This update amends codification topic 310 on receivables to improve the disclosures that an entity provides about the credit quality of its financing receivables and the related allowance for credit losses. As a result of these amendments, an entity is required to disaggregate by portfolio segment or class certain existing disclosures and provide certain new disclosures about its financing receivables and related allowance for credit losses. This guidance is being phased in, with the new disclosure requirements for period end balances effective as of December 31, 2010, and the new disclosure requirements for activity during the reporting period are effective March 31, 2011. The troubled debt restructuring disclosures in this ASU have been delayed by ASU 2011-01 “Deferral of the Effective Date of Disclosures about Troubled Debt Restructurings in Update No. 2010-20,” which was issued in January 2011.

In December 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-28 which amend “Intangibles- Goodwill and Other” (Topic 350). The ASU modifies Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test for reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts. For those reporting entities, they are required to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test if it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists. An entity should consider whether there are any adverse qualitative factors indicating that impairment may exist. The qualitative factors are consistent with the existing guidance in Topic 350, which requires that goodwill of a reporting unit be tested for impairment between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances changes that would more likely than not reduce the faire value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. ASU 2010-28 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2010. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU; however, the Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In December 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-29 which address diversity in practice about the interpretation of the pro forma revenue and earnings disclosure requirements for business combinations (Topic 805). This ASU specifies that if a public entity presents comparative financial statements, the entity should disclose revenue and earnings of the combined entity as though the business combination(s) that occurred during the current year had occurred as of the beginning of the comparable prior annual reporting period only. This ASU also expands the supplemental pro forma disclosures under Topic 805 to include a description of the nature and amount of material, nonrecurring pro forma adjustments directly attributable to the business combination included in the reported pro forma revenue and earnings. ASU 2010-29 is effective prospectively for business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2010. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU and expected the adoption of this ASU will have an impact on its future business combinations.

Note 6 – Goodwill

In 2004, the Company acquired two companies engaged in the production of valves. As a result of these acquisitions the Company recorded goodwill representing the fair value of the assets acquired in these acquisitions over the cost of the assets acquired.

The Company acquired 100% of Hanwei Valve with a total cash consideration of approximately $19.5 million on April 8, 2010. The fair value of the assets of Hanwei Valve was valued at approximately $8.5 million on the acquisition date; the Company recognized approximately $11.0 million goodwill through the said acquisition.

The Company accounts for business combinations using the purchase method of accounting. The total consideration paid in an acquisition is allocated to the fair value of the acquired company’s identifiable assets and liabilities. Any excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill.

The goodwill recognized in conjunction with the acquisition of Hanwei Valve represents intangible values that Hanwei Valve has built over its more than 16 years of history, which do not qualify for separate recognitions, or other factors. These values include but are not limited to:

i) Expected synergies from combining operations of the Company’s operating subsidiaries and Hanwei Valve;
   
ii) The experienced work force;
   
iii) Proprietary technologies related to certain products
   
iv) The proprietary manufacturing processes.

As of December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the carrying value of goodwill amounted to $ 32,955,163 and $20,811,767, respectively.

WARRANTS

2008 placement agent warrants

At the closing of the 2008 private placement, as part of the compensation to the placement agent, the Company issued warrants to the placement agent to acquire 587,249 shares of common stock. The warrants have a strike price equal to $4.29 and a term of 3 years. The shares underlying the warrants will have registration rights. The warrants contain a standard anti-dilution provision for stock dividends, stock splits, stock combination, recapitalization and a change of control transaction. Because the warrants are denominated in U.S. dollars and the Company’s functional currency is the RMB, they do not meet the requirements of the accounting standard to be indexed only to the Company’s stock. Accordingly, they are accounted for at fair value as derivative liabilities and marked to market each period

The initial value of the warrants was determined using the Cox-Ross-Rubinstein binomial model using the following assumptions: volatility of 75%; risk free interest rate of 2.64%; dividend yield of 0% and expected term of 3 years. The volatility of the Company’s common stock was estimated by management averaging its own volatility and three other comparable companies’ volatility, the risk free interest rate was based on Treasury Constant Maturity Rates published by the U.S. Federal Reserve for periods applicable to the life of the warrants, the dividend yield was based on the Company’s current and expected dividend policy and the expected term is equal to the contractual life of the warrants. The value of the warrants was based on the Company’s common stock price of $3.576 on the date the warrants were issued.

On February 18, 2009, the placement agent, Brean Murray, Carret & Co., LLC performed a cashless exercise of 352,349 warrant shares; which were converted to 201,326 shares of common stock. The Company valued the conversion on exercise date, and recorded $229,673 loss from changes in fair value of derivative. A total of $756,012 of carrying value and derivative liability had been reclassified into equity.

In the month of February, 2010, the placement agent, Rosewood Securities LLC exercised 10,202 warrants shares into 10,202 shares of common stock.

On April 7, 2010, another 82,567 warrant shares were exercised into 82,567 shares of common stock.

2009 placement agent warrants

At the closing of the 2009 securities purchase, the Company issued short-term 30-day common stock purchase warrants to acquire 50,000 shares of common stock. The warrants have a strike price equal to $9.00 and a term of 30 days. The shares underlying the warrants will have registration rights. The warrants contain a standard anti-dilution provision for stock dividends, stock splits, stock combination, recapitalization and a change of control transaction. Because the warrants are denominated in U.S. dollars and the Company’s functional currency is the Renminbi, they do not meet the requirements of the accounting standard to be indexed only to the Company’s stock. Accordingly, they are accounted for at fair value as derivative liabilities and marked to market each period The initial value of the warrants was determined using the Cox-Ross-Rubinstein binomial model using the following assumptions: volatility 96%; risk free interest rate 0.030%; dividend yield of 0% and expected term of one month. The value of the warrants was based on the Company’s common stock price of $9.140 on the date the warrants were issued. The warrants were valued at $53,560 when they were issued on December 28, 2009. As of December 31, 2009, the estimated fair value of these warrants was $56,484 and a loss of $2,924 was recorded in the Company’s income statement.

On January 19, 2010, the 50,000 warrants shares as described above were exercised at $9.00 into 50,000 shares of common stock. The Company valued the conversion on exercise date, and recorded $56,016 loss from changes in fair value of derivative.

The warrants contain a standard anti-dilution provision for stock dividends, stock splits, stock combination, recapitalization and a change of control transaction. Because the warrants are denominated in U.S. dollars and the Company’s functional currency is the Renminbi, they do not meet the requirements of the accounting standard to be indexed only to the Company’s stock. Accordingly, they are accounted for at fair value as derivative liabilities and marked to market each period. The initial value of the warrants was determined using the Cox-Ross-Rubinstein binomial model using the following assumptions:

  • Expected volatility of 19.36%

  • Expected dividend yield of 0%

  • Risk-free interest rate of 0.020%

  • Expected lives of 30 days

  • Market price at issuance date of $9.39

  • Strike price of $9.00

The value of the warrants was based on the Company’s common stock price of $9.39 on the date the warrants were issued. The warrants were valued at $165,296 when they were issued on January 7, 2010.

From January to March 2010, all, but 3,334 shares of warrant shares in connection with the 2010 securities purchase were exercised. A total of $575,576 carrying value and derivative liability had been reclassified to equity. The Company recorded a loss of $410,281 related to these warrants. On February 4, 2010, the expiration date of the warrants shares pursuant to the shares purchase agreement of January 7, 2010, 3,334 shares were not exercised and therefore expired. A total of $3,801 of carrying value and derivative liability had been reversed.

In December, 2010, CCG exercised all of its 50,000 warrant shares into 21,778 shares of common stock. The Company valued the conversion on the exercise date, and recorded a $4,209 gain from changes in fair value of derivative in the income statement.

As of December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, warrant liabilities amount to $880,565 and $1,730,837, respectively. The Company recorded a total loss of $785,350 and $1,508,997, in the Company’s statements of operations related to the change in fair value of warrants for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

STOCK COMPENSATION

In connection with the Company’s private placement on August 26, 2008, the Company entered into the Make Good Escrow Agreement, under which 12,583,032 shares of the Company’s common stock held by Bin Li, the Company’s major shareholder, were placed in escrow. These shares are the subject of an Earn-In Agreement between Bin Li and Siping Fang as described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements. Bin Li entered into the Make Good Escrow Agreement on behalf of Siping Fang. For each of the calendar years 2008, 2009 and 2010, 4,194,344 shares will be released to the investors or returned to the shareholder, depending on the fulfillment of specified earnings targets. As of September 30, 2010, a total of 8,388,688 shares has been returned to the shareholder upon meeting 2008 and 2009’s earnings target. In 2008, the Company recorded $15.0 million expenses for the release of the escrow shares as the escrow shares were originally thought to be compensatory. However, in January 2010, FASB issued ASU No. 2010-05 – Escrowed Share Arrangements and the Presumption of Compensation. This update codifies EITF Topic D-110, which clarifies overcoming the presumption that for certain shareholders these arrangements represent compensation. Historically, an escrowed share arrangement involving the release of shares to certain shareholders based on performance-related criteria is presumed to be compensatory. When evaluating whether the presumption of compensation has been overcome, substance of the arrangement should be considered, including whether the arrangement was entered into for purposes unrelated to, and not contingent upon, continued employment. If specific facts and circumstances indicate that the arrangement, such as investors request that specific significant shareholders participate in an escrowed share arrangement, which will be released or canceled without regard to continued employment, is in substance an inducement made to facilitate the transaction on behalf of the company, rather than as compensatory, the arrangement should be recognized and measured according to its nature and reflected as a reduction of the proceeds allocated to the newly-issued securities. The Company’s CEO, SiPing Fang’s, escrowed shares, in connection with the 2008 Make Good Escrow agreement, are placed in escrow at request of the investors and without regard to continued employment. Based on the clarification from the ASU, the release of the escrowed shares to SiPing Fang as result of the Company meeting the make good annual income target should not be recorded as compensation expense. Hence, the Company did not record compensation expense for Mr. Fang for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009.

On June 29, 2009, the Company granted one of its independent directors 5,000 shares of restricted common stock. The stock will vest on January 1, 2011. The Company valued the fair value of the stock grant at $22,500 based on the shares issued and the stock price of $4.50 on June 29, 2009. The $22,500 stock compensation will be amortized over a 2 year period.

On June 29, 2009, the Company granted options to the Company’s independent directors to purchase a total of 50,000 shares of common stock. 27,500 options, expires 5 years from the date of grant, are exercisable at a price of $6.00 per share; and 22,500 options, expires 4.4 years from the date of grant, are exercisable at a price of $8.00 per share. On June 30, 2009, the Company granted options to the Company’s officer to purchase a total of 50,000 shares of common stock. This 50,000 options, expires 3.0 years from the date of grant, are exercisable at a price of $6.00. The $172,771 fair values of the 100,000 stock options are expensed ratably over the service period of the respective personnel. The fair value of the stock options was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions: exercise prices of $6.00 (for 27,500 stock options), $8.00 (for 22,500 stock options) and $6.00 (for 50,000 stock options), expected life of options of 2 years( for 27,500 stock options), 2 years( for 22,500 stock options) and 3 years (for 50,000 stock options) expected volatility of 107%, expected dividend yield of 0%, and risk-free interest rate of 1.11% (for 27,500 stock options), 1.11% (for 22,500 stock options) and 1.64% (for 50,000 stock options

On May 28, 2010, the Company’s CFO resigned and the 50,000 options granted to her were forfeited.

For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, $56,019 and $47,057 were expensed and recorded as compensation expense in the Company’s income statements, respectively.

Note 15 - Geographic and product lines

The Company sells valves, which are used by customers in various industries. The production process, class of customer, selling practice and distribution process are the same for all valves. The Company’s chief operating decision-makers (i.e. chief executive officer and his direct reports) review financial information presented on a consolidated basis, accompanied by disaggregated information about revenues by product lines for purposes of allocating resources and evaluating financial performance. There are no segment managers who are held accountable for operations, operating results and plans for levels or components below the consolidated unit level. Based on qualitative and quantitative criteria established by the accounting standard regarding “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information”, the Company considers itself to be operating within one reportable segment.

The Company does not have long-lived assets located in foreign countries. In accordance with the enterprise-wide disclosure requirements of the accounting standard, the Company's net revenue from external customers by main product lines (based upon primary markets defined by the Chinese Valve Industry Association) and by geographic areas is as follows:

    For the years ended December 31,  
    2010     2009  
    (in thousands)  
Power Supply $  51,963   $  28,206  
Petrochemical and Oil   55,635     16,250  
Water Supply   43,626     28,301  
Metallurgy   8,999     6,173  
Other   23,473     16,440

Total sales revenue $  183,696   $  95,370  

Note 16 – Business combinations

Effective January 1, 2009, the Company adopted the accounting standard regarding business combinations. This standard retains the fundamental requirements that the acquisition method of accounting (which this standard called the purchase method) be used for all business combinations and for an acquirer to be identified for each business combination. This standard requires an acquirer to recognize the assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree at the acquisition date, measured at their fair values as of that date, with limited exceptions. This replaces the old accounting standard’s cost-allocation process, which required the cost of an acquisition to be allocated to the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values. If the fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities is still greater than the consideration transferred, then the acquirer is to recognize a gain for the difference on the acquisition date.

Yangzhou Rock acquisition

In January, 2010, a subsidiary of the Company completed the acquisition of Yangzhou Rock Valve Lock Technology Co., Ltd. ("Yangzhou Rock"), for a total cash consideration of $7.2 million. The acquisition was accounted as a business combination in accordance to the terms of the purchase agreement. The Company assumed the following net assets:
