CHINA INDUSTRIAL STEEL INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.	Organization and Basis of Presentation

Organization

China Industrial Steel inc. (“CIS”) was incorporated January 27, 2010 under the laws of the State of Maryland. On February 5, 2010, CIS formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, Northern Steel Inc. (“Northern”), under the laws of the State of Colorado to facilitate the Company’s operations in China.

On July 15, 2010, Northern formed its wholly owned foreign enterprise in Handan City, Hebei Province, China, Nuosen (Handan) Trading Co., Ltd (“Nuosen”), under the laws of China. Nuosen is a management company to manage operations in China.

Handan Hongri Metallurgy Co., Ltd. (“Hongri”) is a Chinese company located at Handan City, Hebei Province, China. Hongri was incorporated under the Chinese laws on March 7, 2007 with registered capital of Reminbi (“RMB”) 90,489,999 (approximately $12 million US dollars). Hongri is primarily engaged in the business of manufacturing and selling steel plate, steel bars, steel wires and steel billets for domestic customers and certain related parties.

Hebei Wu’an Yuanbaoshan Industry Group Co., Ltd (“YBS Group”) is an enterprise incorporated and existing within the territory of China. YBS Group owns 70% equity interest of Hongri.

Fakei Investment (Hong Kong) Ltd (“Fakei”) is an enterprise incorporated in Hong Kong. Fakei owns 30% equity interest of Hongri.

On August 1, 2010, CIS, through Northern and its wholly owned foreign enterprise, Nuosen, entered into Entrusted Management Agreement, Exclusive Option Agreement, and Covenants Agreement (collectively, the “Entrusted Agreements”) with Hongri and shareholders of Hongri, YBS Group and Fakei. The effect of the Entrusted Agreements is to cede control of management and economic benefits of Hongri to Nuosen. As a consideration, CIS issued 44,083,529 restricted shares of its common stock, par value $0.0001, to Karen Prudente, a nominee and trustee for the shareholders of YBS Group entering into the Entrusted Agreements with Nuosen. CIS also issued 17,493,463 restricted shares of its common stock to the shareholders of Fakei in consideration for Fakei entering into the Entrusted Agreements with Nuosen.

The Entrusted Agreements empower CIS, through Northern and Nuosen, with the ability to control and substantially influence Hongri’s daily operations and financial affairs, appoint its senior executives and approve all matters requiring shareholders’ approval. As a result of these Entrusted Agreements, which obligate CIS to absorb a majority of expected losses of Hongri and enable CIS to receive a majority of expected residual returns from Hongri and because CIS has the power to direct the activities of Hongri that most significantly impact Hongri’s economic performance, CIS, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, accounts for Hongri as its Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”) under ASC 810-10-05-8A. Accordingly, CIS consolidates Hongri’s operating results, assets and liabilities.

On August 10, 2010, Mr. Liu Shenghong, the Chairman of the Board of Directors and one of the shareholders of YBS Group and several other shareholders of YBS Group (each of them, a “Purchaser”) have entered into call option agreements, (collectively, the “Call Option Agreements”), with the major shareholder, Karen Prudente, pursuant to which they are entitled to purchase up to 100% of the issued and outstanding shares from Karen Prudente at a price of $0.0001 per 100 shares for a period of five years as outlined in the Call Option Agreements: the Option may be exercised, in whole or in part, in accordance with the following schedule: 34% of the Option Shares subject to the Option shall vest and become exercisable on January 1, 2012; 33% of the Option Shares subject to the Option shall vest and become exercisable on January 1, 2013 and 33% of the Option Shares subject to the Option shall vest and become exercisable on January 1, 2014. 34% of the Option Shares became exercisable after December 31, 2011. The shareholders did not exercise these Option Shares as of the date of this report. According to the above mentioned Call Option Agreements, Karen Prudente would transfer all restricted shares of the Company’s common stock that she received to the shareholders of YBS Group subject to the terms and conditions thereunder and entrust the shareholders of YBS Group with her voting rights in the Company.

Table of Contents

For accounting purposes, the above transactions were accounted for in a manner similar to a reverse merger or recapitalization, since the former equity shareholders of Hongri now effectively own a majority of CIS’ common stock immediately following the transactions. Consequently, the assets and liabilities and historical operations reflected in the consolidated financial statements prior to the transactions are those of Hongri and are recorded at the historical cost of Hongri, and the consolidated financial statements after completion of the transactions include the assets and liabilities of CIS, Northern, Nuosen, and Hongri (collectively, CIS or the “Company”), historical operations of Hongri, and operations of CIS, Northern, Nuosen and Hongri from the date of the transaction.

CIS through Hongri, its operating company in China, produces and sells steel plates, steel bars, steel wires and steel billets. The Company currently has an aggregate production capacity of 2.3 million metric tons of steel per year from its headquarters on approximately 1,000 acres in Handan City, Hebei Province, China. Most of the Company’s products are domestically sold in China.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments unless otherwise indicated) which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented.

Certain information in footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America has been condensed or omitted pursuant to such principles and the financial results for the periods presented may not be indicative of the full year’s results. The Company believes the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2011 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10K filed in March 2012.

2.	Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

There have been no material changes during 2012 in the Companies’ significant accounting policies to these previously disclosed in the 2011 annual report. Only those policies considered to be most important to the reader have been disclosed in the quarterly Form 10-Q.

Advances from Customers

Customer advances consist of amounts received from customers relating to the sales of the Company’s steel products. The Company recognizes these funds as a current liability until the revenue can be recognized.

Foreign Currency Translation

The Company’s financial information is presented in U.S. dollars. The functional currency of the US parent company and US subsidiaries is the US dollar. The functional currency of the Company’s subsidiaries in the PRC is the RMB. Subsidiary transactions, which are denominated in currencies other than RMB, are translated into RMB at the exchange rate quoted by the People’s Bank of China prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Exchange gains and losses resulting from transactions denominated in a currency other than the RMB are included in statements of income as foreign currency transaction gain or loss.

F-5

Table of Contents

The unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company have been translated into U.S. dollars in accordance with ASC 830, “Foreign Currency Matters”. The financial information is first prepared in RMB and then is translated into U.S. dollars at period-end exchange rates for assets and liabilities and average exchange rates for revenue and expenses. Capital accounts are translated at their historical exchange rates when the capital transactions occurred. The effects of foreign currency translation adjustments are included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in stockholders’ equity.

The foreign exchange rates used in the translation were as follows:

	Three Months Ended				Nine Months Ended				Year Ended
	September 30,				September 30,				December 31,
	2012		2011		2012		2011		2011
RMB/US$ exchange rate	$	0.1591	$	0.1568	$	0.1591	$	0.1568	$	0.1589
Average RMB/US$ exchange rate		0.1575		0.1558		0.1580		0.1544		0.1547

The RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currency and all foreign exchange transactions must take place through authorized institutions. No representation is made that the RMB amounts could have been, or could be, converted into U.S. dollars at the rates used in translation.

Cash flows from the Company’s operations are calculated based upon the local currencies using the average translation rate. As a result, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the statements of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the balance sheets.

Net Income Per Share

Basic net income per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.

Diluted net income per share is computed similarly to basic net income per share except that it includes the dilutive securities (warrants) outstanding and potential dilution that could occur if dilutive securities were converted. Such securities (2,580,022 warrants at $4.50 per share and 1,000 warrants at $2.00 per share), had an anti-dilutive effect and, as such, were excluded from the calculation for all periods presented.

Risks and Uncertainties

The operations of the Company are located in the PRC. Accordingly, the Company’s business and financial condition may be influenced by the political, economic, and legal environments in the PRC, as well as by the general state of the PRC economy. The Company’s operations in the PRC are subject to special considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in North America and Western Europe. These include risks associated with, among others, the political, economic and legal environment and foreign currency exchange. The Company’s results may be adversely affected by changes in the political, regulatory and social conditions in the PRC, and by changes in governmental policies or interpretations with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion, remittances abroad, and rates and methods of taxation. The current management team (specifically the CEO) of the Company and the majority owner of the Company through YBS are also the majority owners of the controlled variable interest entity in the PRC, Handan Hongri Metallurgy Co. Ltd. (“Hongri”). The US parent company (or CIS) only controls Hongri through certain agreements which obligated CIS to absorb a majority of expected losses of Hongri or enabled CIS to receive a majority residual returns from Hongri and granted CIS the power to direct the activities of Hongri that most significantly impact Hongri’s economic performance. As such, there is a risk that the majority shareholders of the Company and, or Hongri could cancel these agreements. If such action was to be taken, the Company would no longer retain control of Hongri, the operating subsidiary. Although the Company has not experienced losses from these risks and believes that they are in compliance with existing laws and regulations including the organization and structure disclosed in Note 1, this may not be indicative of future results. In addition, the management of CIS currently intends to either reinvest or retain all of the income generated by Hongri for strategic expansion purposes and operations into the foreseeable future.

The Company has significant exposure to the fluctuation of raw materials and energy. The Company does not enter into any commodity contracts or other financial derivatives to hedge these risks. In addition, the Company is subject to the cyclical nature of the steel industry and the current economic and political environment as it relates to steel production in China. There are many factors of the business which are impacted by prevailing market conditions, specifically, a change in the raw material and energy product pricing environment, rise or decline, will influence our inventory levels, purchasing decisions and will, ultimately, all have an impact on the Company’s gross profit and operating results. Excessive steel production capacities, lack of demand for steel products and higher iron ore, coking coal and material costs are major challenges that can occur within the Chinese steel industry and have begun to be encountered by the Company. In addition, a significant portion of the Company’s assets have been advanced to a related party supplier (see Note 11). These advances have been or are expected to be used by the related party to purchase raw materials for production of molten iron, which is a major raw material of the Company, equivalent to approximately 100 days of cost of sales of the Company currently. To the extent the demand is actually lower, or there are further price reductions on raw materials already purchased, the gross profit margin and results of operations may be negatively impacted.

The Company provides credit in the normal course of business. Management continues to take appropriate actions to perform ongoing business and credit reviews of customers to reduce exposure to new and recurring customers who have been deemed to pose a high credit risk based on their commercial credit reports, the Company’s collection history, and perception of the risk posed by their geographic location. Concentration of credit risk with respect to accounts receivable is limited because a large number of geographically diverse customers make up the Company’s customer base. In addition, our customers may advance or deposit cash with the Company in order to obtain future order fulfillment preference. Such advances increased to $86 million at September 30, 2012. Should steel pricing further decrease or demand further deteriorate for any reason, such advances may need to be repaid to the applicable customer. Through the date of filing there have been no requests for repayment. However, this may not be indicative of future results.

The Company is potentially exposed to risks of losses that may result from business interruptions, injury to others (including employees) and damage to property. These losses may be uninsured, especially due to the fact that the Company’s operations are in China, where business insurance is not readily available. As of September 30, 2012, the Company has not experienced any uninsured losses from injury to others or other losses.

The Company incurred losses of $3,748,280 in the three months ended September 30, 2012. The cash flow generated from the Company’s operations can support the Company’s daily operations currently. However, it may not be enough to support the operations in the future if there is a continuous significant deterioration in the Chinese steel market. The Company is facing rigorous challenges in the remainder of 2012 and the coming 2013, including unfavorable steel industry cycles, unforeseeable recovery of world economy and uncertainty of political environment resulting from change of leadership in China. All those factors may have a negative impact on the Company’s future results of operations and cash flows which could be difficult to predict and mitigate.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

There were no new pronouncements that would have a material impact on the financial position of the Company.

3.	Bank Notes Receivable

Bank notes receivable are highly liquid negotiable instruments issued by banks in the PRC on behalf of Hongri’s customers. These notes typically have maturities between one to six months. With these bank notes, The Company can: (a) redeem the notes for face value at maturity, (b) endorse the notes to the Company’s vendors as a form of payment instrument at full value, or (c) factor the notes to a bank. In the event that the Company factors these notes to a bank, it will record as interest expense the difference between cash received and the face value of the note. The Company believes all of the notes are fully realizable.

Total estimated cost for expansion of steel wires capacity is approximately $32 million. The Company believes that facilities to produce steel plate are not impaired though the production was reduced in the current quarter. Management will continuously monitor the market situation and may add additional equipment to enable current plate production line to produce other steel products based on the demand of market, cash on hand and available credit facilitates in the future.

8.	Obligations Under Capital Leases – Related Parties

The Company accounts for its related party leases with YBS and its affiliates as capital leases under ASC 840 because YBS has the ability to extend the length of the terms of all of the leases whenever they see fit. Therefore, the leases meet the requirement for capitalization of assets as the term is expected to be greater than 75% of the useful life of the asset. Typically, the terms of the lease are based on YBS’s costs. The value of the capitalized assets have been calculated to be the present value of all lease payments over the stated term using the Company’s bank borrowing rates. Should YBS extend any of the leases, the Company will re-calculate the value of the capitalized lease based on the renewed terms and record an additional asset upon the occurrence.

Consolidation is required when an entity holds a controlling interest in another entity (often in the form of control through voting interests) or if the entity meets the requirements of a variable interest entity (“VIE”). The Company has no direct control of the affiliated companies, noted above, through voting interests. However, because the Company has a variable interest in some of these affiliated companies via the supply relationships noted above (i.e. implied relationships), the Company is required to determine whether such affiliates are VIE’s and, if so, whether the Company is the primary beneficiary so that consolidation must occur. A VIE has the following characteristics in accordance with ASC 810-10-15-14: insufficient equity investment at risk; equity lacking decision-making rights; equity with nonsubstantive voting rights; lacking the obligation to absorb an entity’s expected losses and lacking the right to receive an entity’s expected residual returns. The Company’s analysis concluded that such affiliates were not VIE’s because none of these characteristics are present.

As of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 advances to related parties and accounts payable - related parties consisted of:

The balance of advances to YBS group, a parent company, was $0 and $21,075,317 as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. YBS Group is a parent company. It provides various services to the subsidiary companies, such as market and industrial information, public relationship, various government agents’ relationship, coordination the production and purchase for subsidiaries and so on. Advances to YBS Group were in connection with the purchase of iron and supplementary materials used in Hongrong’s production, a motlen iron supplier of Hongri. The balance of advance to YBS Group will be returned or credited for YBS Group’s other services provided to the Company.

YBS group charged a service fee based on applicable itemized expenses and fixed service fee. Commencing in 2010, YBS Group charged 0.1% of current year revenue of Hongri as a fixed service fee. Service fees consisted of management salaries, training, consultations, common areas charges and other fees. Management believes that 0.1% of revenue is a reasonable charge method. The Company estimated that this service fee would be similar or marginally higher if the same services had been provided by third parties. In addition to the fixed service fee, the Company will charge itemized services and expenses to the Company if such service and expenses are incurred. The services fees were $165,787 and $225,953 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and $1,023,655 and $629,403 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

13.	Income Tax

The provision for income tax arose from income tax incurred and or paid to the Chinese tax agent.

Hongri is subject to the PRC’s 25% standard enterprise income tax. However, in 2007, the Company applied for a foreign investment enterprise exemption, and the application was approved by the local tax authority. The Company is entitled to a tax holiday of full (100%) income tax exemption for two (2) years starting from the first profitable year of 2008 through 2009 and then a 50% reduction in income tax for additional three (3) years from the year of 2010 to 2012.

Nuosen is subject to the PRC’s 25% standard enterprise income tax.

Foreign pretax loss was $3,679,977 for the three months ended September and earnings of $21,332,060 for the three months ended September 30, 2011, respectively. Foreign pretax earnings were $4,688,782 and $42,427,479 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Pretax earnings of a foreign subsidiary are subject to U.S. taxation when effectively repatriated. The Company provides income taxes on the undistributed earnings of non-U.S. subsidiaries except to the extent that such earnings are indefinitely invested outside the United States. At September 30, 2012, approximately $161,234,000 of accumulated unadjusted earnings of non-U.S. subsidiaries was indefinitely invested. At the existing U.S federal corporation income tax rate of 34%, an additional tax of $45,819,000 approximately would have to be provided if such earnings were remitted currently.

The following table reconciled the US statutory rates to the Company’s effective rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011.

	Three Months Ended September 30,						Nine Months Ended September 30,

CIS and Northern were incorporated in the United States and have incurred net operating losses for income tax purposes in past years and the current period. As of September 30, 2012, the Companies had loss carry forwards of approximately $1708,000 for U.S. income tax purposes available for offset against future taxable U.S. income expiring in 2030 and 2031. Management believes that the realization of the benefits from these losses appears uncertain due to the Company's limited operating history. Accordingly, a full deferred tax asset valuation allowance has been provided and no deferred tax asset benefit has been recorded. The valuation allowance as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 were approximately $581,000 and $411,000, respectively.

The Company did not have any significant temporary differences relating to deferred tax liabilities as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

The Company files income tax returns with U.S. Federal Government and the states of Maryland and Colorado. With few exceptions, the Company is subject to U.S. federal and Maryland state income tax examinations by tax authorities for years on or after 2007 and for years on or after 2006 by Colorado tax authorities. The Company’s foreign subsidiaries also file income tax returns with the National Tax Bureau (with its branches in Handan) and other taxes and surcharges with the Local Tax Bureaus (Hubei Provincial Tax Bureau and Handan Municipal Tax Bureau).

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and notes thereto included in this report.

On August 1, 2010, China Industrial Steel Inc. (“CIS” or the “Company”), through Northern Steel Inc. (“Northern”) and its wholly owned foreign enterprise, Nuosen (Handan) Trading Co., Ltd (“Nuosen”), entered into Entrusted Management Agreement, Exclusive Option Agreement, and Covenants Agreement (collectively, the “Entrusted Agreements”) with Handan Hongri Metallurgy Co., Ltd. (“Hongri”) and shareholders of Hongri, Hebei Wu’an Yuanbaoshan Industry Group Co., Ltd (“YBS Group”) and Fakei Investment (Hong Kong) Ltd (“Fakei”). The effect of the Entrusted Agreements is to cede control of management and economic benefits of Hongri to Nuosen. As a consideration, CIS issued 44,083,529 restricted shares of its common stock, par value $0.0001, to Karen Prudente, a nominee and trustee for YBS Group for entering into the Entrusted Agreements with Nuosen. CIS also issued 17,493,463 restricted shares of its common stock to Fakei in consideration for Fakei entering into the Entrusted Management Agreement with Nuosen.

The Entrusted Agreements empower CIS, through Northern and Nuosen, with the ability to control and substantially influence Hongri’s daily operations and financial affairs, appoint its senior executives and approve all matters requiring shareholders’ approval. As a result of these entrusted agreements, which obligate CIS to absorb a majority of expected losses of Hongri and enable CIS to receive a majority of expected residual returns from Hongri and because CIS has the power to direct the activities of Hongri that most significantly impact Hongri’s economic performance, CIS, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, accounts for Hongri as its Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”) under ASC 810-10-05-8A. Accordingly, CIS consolidates Hongri’s operating results, assets and liabilities. The management of the Company currently intends reinvest all of the income of Hongri for strategic expansion purpose for the foreseeable future.

For accounting purposes, the above transactions were accounted for in a manner similar to a reverse merger or recapitalization, since the former equity shareholders of Hongri now effectively own a majority of CIS’ common stock immediately following the transactions. Consequently, the assets and liabilities and historical operations reflected in the consolidated financial statements prior to the transactions are those of Hongri and are recorded at the historical cost of Hongri. The consolidated financial statements after completion of the transactions include the assets and liabilities of CIS, Northern, Nuosen, and Hongri (collectively, CIS or the “Company”), historical operations of Hongri, and operations of CIS, Northern, Nuosen and Hongri from the date of the transaction. The 44,083,529 restricted shares of common stock issued to Karen Prudente and 17,493,463 restricted shares of common stock issued to Fakei were presented as of the beginning of the first period presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

CIS through Hongri, its operating company in China, produces and sells steel plates, steel wires and steel billets. The Company currently operates from its headquarters on approximately 1,000 acres in Handan City, Hebei Province, China. Most of the Company’s products are sold domestically in China.

The Company completed construction of steel production phase II in 2009, which increased steelmaking capacity to 2.3 million metric tons in 2009 from 1.3 million tons in 2008. Annualized production of steelmaking to total capacity utilization rate was approximately 61% and 64% for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Annualized production of steelmaking to total capacity utilization rate was approximately 52% and 60% for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The decrease in capacity utilization rate in 2012 resulted from a reduced market demand for steel products during 2012.

In addition to steelmaking capacity, the Company currently has 2 million metric tons of steel rolling production capacity (including steel plate and steel bar production). Annualized production of steel rolling to total capacity utilization rate was approximately 61% and 57% for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Annualized production of steel rolling to total capacity utilization rate was approximately 52% and 51% for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Due to the nature of its business, the Company has significant exposure to the fluctuation of raw materials and energy prices as part of its normal operations. There are many factors of our business which are impacted by prevailing market conditions, specifically, a change in the raw material and energy pricing environment will influence our inventory levels and purchasing decisions which will, ultimately, impact our realized gross margin. The Company’s management operational decisions are a direct response to the market and, as such, will change as market conditions change. The Company does not -undertake any hedging strategies to mitigate the fluctuation of market price. Therefore, the fluctuation of commodity price will have a direct impact on our operation through the price change in local steel market.

The Company subcontracted Wu'an Hongrong Iron & Steel Co. Ltd (“Hongrong”), a related party, to process molten iron prior to February 2010. Beginning from February 2010, the Company terminated the subcontracting relationship with Hongrong and began purchasing processed molten iron from Hongrong at the prevailing market price on the local iron market, in accordance with a supply agreement. This change had no material impact on our gross profit margin since the subcontracting fees paid was commensurate with the gross profit of manufacturing molten iron in the local market.

For the three months ended September 30, 2012, 59% of the Company’s total purchase was from Hongrong, and 32% of the total purchase was from an unrelated party. For the comparable period of 2011, 98% of the total purchases were from Hongrong. No purchase from other vendors was over 5%. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, 62% of the Company’s total purchase was from Hongrong, and 32% of the total purchase was from an unrelated party. For the comparable period of 2011, 98% of the total purchases were from Hongrong. No purchase from other vendors was over 5%. The decrease in purchase form Hongrong was mainly due to the maintenance of the blast furnace and construction of a new blast furnace in Hongrong. It is expected that once the blast furnace is completed by late November, the purchases from Hongrong will increase and the third party purchases will decrease.

Excessive steel production capacities, lack of demand for steel products and higher iron ore, coking coal and material costs are major challenges that the Chinese steel industry has encountered today after more than twenty years of expansion and development in China. According to Association of Chinese Steel Industry, steel manufactures Chinese comprehensive price index of steel products (“CSPI”), an index combined various price of steel products, an economic indicator of market demand for steel products, was decreasing continuously from the beginning of 2012. At September 30, 2012, CSPI was 102.45, a decrease of 18 points compared to 120.45 at December 31, 2011; a decrease of 29.85 points compared to 132.30 at September 30, 2011. Though the price of iron ore, coking coal and other materials were decreased in the same period, the extent of decrease in raw material was less than the decrease in the price of steel products. Many Chinese steel manufacturers incurred losses in 2012. It was estimated by the “Association of Chinese Steel Industry” that 45% of steel manufacturers were experiencing losses during the nine months ended September 30, 2012. This loss percentage increased 11 points from 34% estimated for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The recovery of the Chinese steel market is still uncertain and will largely depend on the expected new Chinese government and its new economic development policy and bounce-back of the world economy.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, the decrease in sales price was greater than the decrease in cost of production had a material negative impact on the Company’s operation results. The Company incurred losses for the three months ended September 30, 2012. If the deterioration of steel market continues, the Company may have further losses in the remainder of 2012.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company incurred losses of $3,748,280 in the three months ended September 30, 2012. However, the Company still had positive cash inflow from operating approximately $6.4 million during the three months ended September 30, 2012, and $41.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The Company’s decision to modify steel bar production line to produce steel wires to adapt to the market demand in 2011helped the Company to alleviate some the negative market impact in 2012. During the three months ended September 30, 2012, the revenue from steel wires increased 110% compared to the comparable period of 2011. The revenue from steel wires accounted 47% of total revenue in the three months ended September 30, 2012.

The cash flow generated from our operations can support our daily operations currently. Nevertheless, it may not be enough to support our operation in the future if the deterioration of steel market continuous. The Company is facing rigorous challenges in the remainder of 2012 and the coming 2013, including unfavorable steel industry cycles, unforeseeable recovery of world economy and uncertainty of political environment resulting from change of leadership in China. All those factors may have a negative impact on our operations and cash flows. It is difficult to predict and mitigate these unfavorable trends. Management will continuously monitor these negative factors and determine the production based on the demand of market, cash on hand and available credit facilitates.

In addition, the Company plans to add a new production line to produce a coated steel product, known as Galvalume, which is primarily used in the automotive and home appliance industries. To implement this expansion strategy, it is estimated that we will require at least $80 million. Management believes that our available cash will not be sufficient to fund our expansion requirements and therefore, the Company will look for external sources such as debt or equity financings. However, there is no assurance that any such required funds from external sources will be available on attractive terms or that they will not have a significant dilutive effect on the Company’s existing stockholders. If such required funds from outside sources are limited, or not available, then the Company will adjust its expansion plan accordingly.

Relevant PRC statutory laws and regulations restrict certain payments, such as dividends, loans or advances, from the Companies’ registered capital. Such restricted capital amounted to approximate $15,244,000 as of September 30, 2012. The Company is also required to allocate a portion of its after-tax profits to the statutory reserve. Annual appropriations to the statutory reserve are required to be at least 10% of the enterprise’s after-tax net income determined under Chinese GAAP. When the surplus reserves account balance is equal to or greater than 50% of the Company’s paid-in capital, no further allocation to the surplus reserve account is required. As of September 30, 2012, the Company’s reserved fund totaled $6,530,869. In addition, our ability to use revenue generated in RMB to fund any future business activities outside of China or to make dividend or other payments in U.S. dollars is limited due to the regulations of PRC’s currency exchange. We cannot be certain that the Chinese regulatory authorities will not impose more stringent restrictions on the convertibility of the RMB in the future.

The Company currently intends to retain all earnings, if any, for use in its business operations. We have no plan to repurchase our common stock, nor declare any dividends in the near future.

The increase in advances to related parties resulted mainly from advance to Hongrong, the Company’s major molten iron supplier. The Company is in favor of Hongrong as its primary molten iron supplier. It will reduce the transportation cost and steel making cost since Hongrong is located nearby Hongri. Hongrong has a new blast furnace ready for production and to guarantee the Company has enough molten iron supply, the Company advanced more funds to Hongrong in order to ensure that at least 3 months of current volume demand is available for immediate use in Hongrong’s blast funace. The advance to Hongrong was $176,653,491 as of September 30, 2012, an increase of $120,312,523 compared $56,340,968 at December 31, 2011. Most of these advances related to the purchase of raw materials and other supplies in routine business and were short term in nature. The balance of advances to Hongong approximated 100 days of cost of sales at the current production level. To the extent the demand is actually lower, or there are further price reductions on raw materials already purchased, the gross profit margin, results of operations and cash flow may be negatively impacted.

The Company’s accounts payable were $96,776,076 at September 30, 2012, an increase of 73,680,249, compared $23,095,827 at December 31, 2011. The increase in accounts payable resulted mainly from increased payable balance to one new major pig iron supplier of the Company. The payable to such supplier amounted $73,659,103 and $0 at September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. The accounts payable balance is interest free and the Company has no specific terms of accounts payable with this vendor. The Company will pay this payable from cash generated from its operation currently. If the deterioration of steel market continues and the sales prices are further decreased, the Company’s ability to pay these payables from its operation is limited. The Company may require additional funding from external source, either debt or equity financing. We cannot be sure funding will be available on reasonable terms when we require funding.

Advance from customers was $86,023,316 at September 30, 2012, an increase of $72,765,829, compared to $13,257,487 at December 31, 2011. The sales prices of steel products are fluctuated daily. Timing of buying and selling is one of the keys for profit. In order to get the Company’s products with priority whenever the price of steel products are going up, the customer will deposit certain amount of money in Company’s account. During nine months ended September 30, 2012, two major customers increased approximately $48.4 million deposit in the Company’s account. These deposits are short term in nature and are interest free. If the deterioration of steel market continues and the sales prices are further decreased, some of the customer may recall their deposits. If it happens, it will have negative impact on Company’s cash flows. The Company may require additional funding from external source, either debt or equity financing. We cannot be sure funding will be available on reasonable terms when we require funding.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $41,261,887 in the nine months ended September 30, 2012. Net cash used in operation activities was $8,038,555 in the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The increase in net cash provided by operating activities in 2012 was mainly due to the following factors: A $33,385,651 negative change in net income ($2,806,281 in 2012 and $36,191,932 in 2011). A $14,543,820 positive change in accounts receivable ($14,929,348 decrease in accounts receivable in 2012, $385,528 decrease in accounts receivable in 2011) resulted from more subsequent collections in 2012. A $6,177,200 negative change in accounts receivable from related parties ($0 in accounts receivable – related parties in 2012, $6,177,200 increase in 2011) resulted from no accounts receivable from related parties in 2012. A $5,138,135 positive change in bank notes receivable ($2,104,142 decrease in 2012 and $3,033,993 increase in 2011) resulted from reduced amount of bank notes receivable in 2012. A $6,066,605 positive change in inventories ($6,325,459 decrease in inventories in 2012; $258,854 decrease in inventories in 2011) resulted from the Company purchasing molten iron from Hongrong, a related party, beginning from February 2010 instead of outsourcing the production and consequently reduced related inventories. A $97,699,904 negative change in advances to related parties ($140,477,692 increase in advance to related parties in 2012 and $42,777,788 increase in advance to related parties in 2011) resulted from the Company’s expectation for increasing demand of molten iron from Hongrong in the remaining of 2012. A $78,621,582 positive change in accounts payable ($73,122,036 increase in accounts payable in 2012; $5,499,546 decrease in accounts payable in 2011) resulted from the Company purchased 32% of its total purchase from a third party vendor, a pig iron supplier during the nine months ended September 30, 2012. A $4,887,355 positive change in accounts payable to related parties ($474,397 increase in 2012; $4,412,958 decrease in 2011) resulted from less accounts payables to related parties paid off in 2012 than in 2011. A $1,412,006 positive change in accrued expenses ($205,294 decrease in 2012; $1,617,300 decrease in 2011) resulted from more paid off and less accrued in 2011 than in 2012. A $83,945,372 positive change in advances from customers ($72,227,077 increase in 2012; $11,718,295 decrease in 2011) resulted from two major customer’s increased prepayments.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

In Note 2 to our audited consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 included in the Form 10-K filed on March 29, 2012, the Company discusses those accounting policies that are considered to be significant in determining the results of operations and its financial position. The Company believes that the accounting principles utilized by it conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP).

The Company has not entered into any off-balance sheet financing arrangements and has not established any special purpose entities. The Company has not guaranteed any debt or commitments of other entities or entered into any options on non-financial assets.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

Foreign Exchange Risk

While our reporting currency is the US dollar, almost all of our consolidated revenues and consolidated costs and expenses are denominated in RMB. All of our assets are denominated in RMB except for some cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivables. As a result, we are exposed to foreign exchange risk as our revenues and results of operations may be affected by fluctuations in the exchange rate between US dollar and RMB. If the RMB depreciates against the US dollar, the value of our RMB revenues, net income and assets as expressed in our US dollar financial statements will decline. If the RMB appreciates against the US dollar, the value of our RMB revenues, net income and assets as expressed in US dollars will increase. We have not entered into any hedging transactions in an effort to reduce our exposure to foreign exchange risk.

Inflation Risk

According to the National Bureau of Statistics of China, the change in Consumer Price Index in China was -0.7%, 3.3% and 5.4% in 2009, 2010 and 2011 respectively. In recent years, the PRC has not experienced significant inflation, and thus inflation has not had a material impact on our results of operations. Although we are generally able to pass along minor incremental cost inflation to our customers, a high rate of inflation in the future may have an adverse effect on our ability to maintain current levels of gross margin and selling and distribution, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net revenues if the selling prices of our products do not increase to cope with these increased costs.

Higher Interest Rate Risk

The Company may borrow more loans from bank in addition to other source of fund to support its expansion. We are exposed to higher interest rate risk arising from short-term borrowings. The interest rate in China is higher than that of in the US. The interest rate may go higher under the pressure of inflation. Our future interest expense will fluctuate in line with changes of borrowing rates.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As required by paragraph (b) of Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, our management, with the participation of our principal executive and principal financial officer evaluated our company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report on Form 10-Q. Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our company's reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our company's reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our principal executive officer and our principal accounting officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on their evaluation, management concluded that as of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, these disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

Plan for Remediation of Material Weaknesses

As financial conditions permit, we plan to take the following actions to improve our internal control over financial reporting, including actions to remediate those material weaknesses identified.

1.	Recruit qualified staff for internal control positions and develop a suitable internal control system. to provide effective oversight of our internal control over financial reporting.

2.	Conduct an equity level risk assessment by the end of this year.

3.	Look to engage the services of qualified consultants with China GAAP, U.S. GAAP and SEC reporting experience to support our financial reporting and SOX compliance requirements, including assistance with the following:

Remediating identified material weaknesses;

Monitoring our internal control over financial reporting on an ongoing basis;

Managing our period-end financial closing and reporting processes; and

Identifying and resolving non-routine or complex accounting matters.

Our management will continue to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures, as well as its internal control over financial reporting, on an ongoing basis, and is committed to taking further action and implementing additional improvements, as necessary and as funds allow. However, our management cannot guarantee that the measures taken or any future measures will remediate the material weaknesses identified or that any additional material weaknesses or significant deficiencies will not arise in the future due to a failure to implement and maintain adequate internal control.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
