Background

On May 1, 2014 The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) halted trading in the securities of China Ceramics Co., Ltd. (the “Company”) and notified the Company of the Company’s non-compliance with the Nasdaq Marketplace continued listing requirements. The Company had previously notified Nasdaq (i) of the Company’s inability to timely file its Annual Report on Form 20-F, and (ii) of the Company’s termination of Grant Thornton Shanghai PRC (“GT”) as the Company’s principal independent registered public accountants on April 30, 2014. In connection with its audit of the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013, GT raised a number of concerns with the Company and differences arose regarding the manner in which the concerns should be addressed. The Audit Committee and the Board voted to dismiss GT and to engage a new auditing firm to audit the financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2013 and to re-audit the financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011based on the communications between GT and management and the Audit Committee regarding the concerns, the view of a majority of the members of the Audit Committee that communications between GT and the Company’s management and Audit Committee had become impaired, and the fact that the positions adopted by GT had already foreclosed the timely filing of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 20-F.

Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountants

The Company terminated the engagement of GT as the Company’s principal independent registered public accountants, effective April 30, 2014, pursuant to action taken by the Audit Committee and the Board of Directors on April 27, 2014. That action was based in part upon the view of a majority of the Audit Committee members that communications between GT and the Company’s management and Audit Committee had become impaired as described above. Additional information regarding the concerns raised by GT will be included in subsequent reports on Form 6-K and/or in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2013.

On May 1, 2014 the Company engaged Crowe Horwath (HK) CPA Limited (“CHHK”) as the Company’s principal independent registered public accountant to audit the Company's financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013 and to re-audit the prior fiscal years ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, as well as to perform services related to the auditing of those financial statements. CHHK was engaged pursuant to an affirmative vote and recommendation of the Audit Committee on April 30, 2014 and the affirmative vote of the Board of Directors on the same date. During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, and the interim period through April 30, 2014, the Company did not consult with CHHK regarding: (1) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either proposed or completed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements; or (2) any matter or “reportable event” as that term is defined for purposes of Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation SK. The Audit Committee intends to prescribe additional audit procedures to be performed by CHHK with respect to the concerns expressed by GT.

Departure of Directors or Principal Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

Audit Committee Membership Changes

On April 27, 2014, following the Audit Committee determination to terminate GT, William L. Stulginsky, the former Chairman of the Audit Committee, tendered his resignation as an independent director and Chairman of the Audit Committee. A copy of his resignation letter is filed Exhibit 99.1 to this report and is incorporated herein by reference (the “Stulginsky Resignation Letter”).

Following Mr. Stulginsky’s resignation, the Board appointed Liu Jianwei, an independent member of the Board, to the office of the Chairman of the Audit Committee, effective immediately. Mr. Liu was appointed to the Board on January 7, 2014. Prior to this Chairmanship appointment, he served as a member of the Board’s Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Nominating Committees, respectively, and he continues to serve on each of those Committees.

Executive Director Resignation

On April 28, 2014, Su Pei Zhi tendered his resignation as a Board member to ensure that a majority of the Board of Directors continued to consist of independent directors. A copy of his resignation letter is filed Exhibit 99.2 to this report (the “Su Pei Zhi Resignation Letter”).

As a result of the above-described changes to the Board constituency, the Board includes three independent directors, Liu Jianwei, Shen Chengliang and Cheng Yan Davis, and two executive directors, Huang Jia Dong and Su Wei Feng.

Trading Halt

On May 1, 2014 the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) halted trading in the Company’s securities pending Nasdaq’a issuance of, and the Company response to, information requests from Nasdaq, which the Company received on May 2, 2014. Nasdaq took that action after the Company notified Nasdaq (i) of the Company’s inability to timely file its Annual Report on Form 20-F, and (ii) of the Company’s termination of GT as the Company’s principal independent registered public accountant. The Company intends to cooperate fully with Nasdaq’s inquiry. However, the Company does not expect trading to recommence until the Company becomes current in filing it’s periodic reports, and the Company regains compliance with the Nasdaq Marketplace Rules. There can be no assurance that trading on Nasdaq will recommence, or when it may recommence. See “Nasdaq Non-Compliance Letter & Opportunity To Submit A Plan of Compliance” below. Moreover, it is possible that Nasdaq may seek to delist the Company's securities based upon the Company's failure to timely file its periodic reports before the Company is able to regain compliance with its reporting requirements. If there is an extended trading halt, there is a possibility that trading could occur on the OTCBB or the pink sheets.

Nasdaq Non-Compliance Letter & Opportunity To Submit A Plan of Compliance

Following the trading halt on May 1, 2014, the Company received a letter from Mr. Randy Genau, Director, Listing Qualifications, Nasdaq on May 1, 2014 (the “Letter”), informing the Company that it no longer complies with the Nasdaq requirements for continued listing set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1), which requires the timely filing of periodic reports. The non-compliance cited in the Letter was the result of the Company's failure to timely file its Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2013.

The Letter states in part that the Nasdaq Staff pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5101 has afforded the Company the opportunity to submit a plan prior to June 2, 2014 that addresses the details of the Company’s plan to regain compliance with the Nasdaq Marketplace Rules. The Letter recites that the Nasdaq Marketplace Rules provide that the Staff can grant the Company an extension of up to 180 calendar days from the filing's due date to regain compliance if Nasdaq accepts the Company’s plan of compliance. After submission and review of the plan, the Nasdaq Staff will determine whether or not to grant additional time to the Company to file its Form 20-F (and any other periodic reports that hereafter may become due) and to regain compliance with the Listing Rules as permitted under The Nasdaq Marketplace Rules. There is no assurance that the terms of such plan will be accepted by the Nasdaq staff. If the Company’s plan of compliance is not accepted, the Company would have the opportunity to appeal that decision to a Hearings Panel.

The Letter advises that in determining whether to accept the Company’s plan, the Nasdaq Staff will consider matters such as: the likelihood that the Form 20-F, along with any subsequent periodic filing that will be due, can be made within the 180 day period; the Company’s compliance history; the reasons for the late filing of the Form 20-F; other corporate events that may occur within the review period; the Company’s overall financial condition; and the Company’s public disclosures.

The Company plans to present its plan of compliance to Nasdaq and to request continued listing pending the completion of the plan. There is no assurance that the compliance plan that the Company intends to file with Nasdaq will be accepted by the Nasdaq Staff.

A copy of the Letter is attached as Exhibit 99.3 and a copy of the press release required to be issued pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(b), entitled “China Ceramics Announces Receipt of Nasdaq Non-Compliance Letter & Opportunity To Submit A Plan of Compliance” is attached as Exhibit 99.4.

Other Events

The Company issued a press release, entitled “China Ceramics Announces Delays In Filing its Fiscal 2013 Annual Report, Suspension of Trading, and Preliminary Unaudited 2013 Financial Results” which reported, among other things, the change in the Company’s principal independent registered public accountant, the trading halt and the Company’s preliminary unaudited 2013 financial results.

Re:	China Ceramics Co., Ltd. (the “Company”)
	Nasdaq Symbol:  CCCL

Dear Mr. Edmund:

I am following up on our telephone conversation with Ralph DeMartino, Esq. earlier today, in which we explained that since your Company has not yet filed its Form 20-F for the period ended December 31, 2013 (the “Filing”), it no longer complies with our Listing Rules (the “Rules”) for continued listing.¹ Generally, the Company would be afforded 60 days to prepare and submit a plan of compliance.² However, given the circumstances surrounding the Company’s inability to file, as described in the Company’s May 1, 2014 Form 12b-25, Staff has determined to utilize its discretionary authority set forth in Listing Rule 5101³ to shorten this timeframe to 30 calendar days, or June 2, 2014. If we accept your plan, we can grant an exception of up to 180 calendar days from the Filing’s due date, or until October 27, 2014, to regain compliance. Your plan should be as definitive as possible, addressing any issues that you believe would support your request for an exception. The fee for the compliance plan review is $5,000.⁴ Please submit your non-refundable Compliance Plan Review fee in accordance with the instructions provided on the attached “Check Payment Form”.

In determining whether to accept your plan, we will consider such things as the likelihood that the Filing, along with any subsequent periodic filing that will be due, can be made within the 180 day period, the Company’s past compliance history, the reasons for the late Filing, other corporate events that may occur within our review period, the Company’s overall financial condition and its public disclosures. Please note that any subsequent periodic filing that is due within the 180 day exception period must be filed no later than the end of the period. Therefore, it would be helpful if your plan addresses each of these points. ⁵

China Ceramics Announces Delays In Filing its Fiscal 2013 Annual Report, Suspension of Trading, Changes In Its Board of Directors, And Preliminary Unaudited 2013 Financial Results

JINJIANG, China, May 2, 2014 /PRNewswire/ — China Ceramics Co., Ltd. (NASDAQ Global Market: CCCL) ("China Ceramics" or the "Company"), today announced that on May 1, 2014 it filed a notification on Form 12b-25 with the Securities and Exchange Commission of the Company's inability to timely file its Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2013. The audit of the Company's consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013 has not been completed. On April 30, 2014, the Company terminated the engagement of Grant Thornton (Shanghai, PRC) ("GT") as its principal independent registered public accountants. Following the GT termination, the Company engaged Crowe Horwath (HK) CPA Limited ("CHHK") as the Company's principal independent registered public accountant to audit the Company's financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, as well as to perform services related to the auditing of those financial statements. The Audit Committee and the Board of Directors voted to terminate GT's engagement and to engage a new auditing firm on April 27, 2014, and on April 30, 2014 the Audit Committee and the Board of Directors approved the engagement of CHHK. CHHK was formally engaged on May 1, 2014. The Company anticipates that the completion of the audit process and subsequent filing of the 2013 Annual Report on Form 20-F will occur within ninety days of the date of this press release. Further information regarding the above-disclosed circumstances will be provided in a Report on Form 6-K which the Company intends to file within a few days. In a related event, The Nasdaq Stock Market halted trading in the Company's securities pending the issuance by Nasdaq of information requests and Nasdaq's receipt of the Company's responses to those requests. The Company intends to cooperate fully with Nasdaq's inquiry. However, based on Nasdaq's communications with the Company, the Company does not expect trading to recommence on Nasdaq until all of the Company's periodic reports have been filed. There can be no assurance that trading will recommence or when it may recommence. Moreover, it is possible that Nasdaq may seek to delist the Company's securities based upon the Company's failure to timely file its periodic reports before the Company is able to regain compliance with its reporting requirements. If there is an extended trading halt, there is a possibility that trading could occur on the OTCBB or the pink sheets.

Write Down of Assets in the Fourth Quarter of 2013

During the course of the preparation of its 2013 financial statements, the Company identified certain adjustments in the fourth quarter in connection with a write down of assets resulting from unused capacity at the Company's Hengdali facility. The Company's Hengdali facility utilized capacity capable of producing eight million square meters of ceramic tiles annually in 2013 out of an annual productive capacity of 30 million square meters. The Company's current estimate of the asset write-down for the fourth quarter is approximately $7.5 million.

Preliminary Unaudited Financial Results for the Fourth Quarter of 2013

Revenue for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2013 was RMB 220.3 million (US$ 36.5 million), a decrease of 10.2% as compared to the fourth quarter of 2012. The year-over-year decrease in revenue was due to an 11.5% decrease in sales volume to 7.7 million square meters of ceramic tiles. The Company attributes its reduced revenue to improved but still recovering business conditions in China's real estate and construction sectors as a result of the difficult market conditions that began in late 2012. Gross profit for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2013 was RMB 6.4 million (US$ 1.1 million), a decrease of 78.2% as compared to the fourth quarter of 2012. The year-over-year decrease in gross profit margin was caused by higher raw material prices, a change in product mix towards lower profit margin products and an increased inventory provision which increased cost of sales. Of the total cost of sales for the quarter ended December 31, 2013, RMB 12.7 million (US$ 2.1 million) related to a provision for inventory that was aging as compared to RMB 3.2 million (US$ 0.5 million) for the quarter ended December 31, 2012.

Preliminary Unaudited Financial Results for the Fiscal Year ended December 31, 2013

Revenue for the year ended December 31, 2013 was RMB 932.9 million (US$ 151.9 million) a decrease of 35.4% as compared to RMB 1,444.9 million (US$ 230.7 million) from year ended December 31, 2012. The year-over-year decrease in revenue was mainly was due to a 24.8% decrease in the sales volume of ceramic tiles to 34.7 million square meters in the year ended December 31, 2013 from 46.2 million square meters in the same period in 2012 and a 14.1% decrease in the Company's average selling price, which decreased to RMB 26.9 ($4.4) per square meter for the year end 2013 per square meter compared to RMB 31.3 ($5.0) per square meter for the year end 2012. The Company attributes its reduced sales volume in fiscal 2013 to the continued challenging business conditions in China's real estate and construction sector. However, the Company believes that the decrease in the pricing of its ceramic tile products is temporary and that product pricing will revert to normal levels once business conditions improve. Gross profit was RMB 67.0 million (US$ 10.9 million), down 82.4% from RMB 381.0 million (US$ 60.8 million) for the year ended December 31, 2012. The year-over-year decrease in gross profit margin was primarily driven by a decrease in its average selling price and an increase in materials and labor costs.
