2010 Third Quarter Key Financial Items

  • Revenue of $42.6 million represents an increase from $39.7 million in the third quarter of 2009.
  • Gross profit was $8.8 million, compared to $11.1 million in the third quarter of 2009.
  • Net income attributable to CNOA shareholders in the third quarter of 2010 was $1.9 million.
  • Fully diluted earnings per share in the third quarter of 2010 were $0.03 as compared to $0.06 in the third quarter of 2009.
  • Changbai Eco-Beverage Co., Ltd. has maintained consistent sales and profit since its acquisition in the first quarter of 2010.

Our revenue has slightly improved in the third quarter but is still restrained by the economic conditions in China. Almost all of the agricultural products we trade have stabilized at a higher market price compared to the previous year which results in our customers being more cautious with market conditions and placing fewer orders at a time.


Liquidity Requirements
We anticipate that our available funds and cash flows generated from operations will be sufficient to meet our anticipated on-going operating needs for the next twelve months. However, we may need to raise additional capital in order to fund acquisitions and any substantive construction projects. We would expect to raise those funds through credit facilities obtained from lending institutions, the issuance of equity, or a combination of both.
