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 right, plant and equipment; and accruals for income tax uncertainties and other contingencies. The current economic environment has increased the degree of uncertainty inherent in those 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 18 months, to guarantee product quality. Retainage is considered as a payment term included as a part of the contract price, and recognize as revenue base upon shipment of products. Due to nature of the retainage, the Company’s policy is to take into revenue the full value of the contract, including any retainage, as it performs against the contact since the Company has experienced insignificant warranty claims historically 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 provides warranty for all of its products and provides 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.

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 $217,139 and $428,686 for the three months ended June 30, 2011, and 2010, respectively; $347,940 and $518,994 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

SELLING EXPENSE

Selling expense includes transportation expense, advertising, salaries, conference fees, sales commissions, and shipping and handling.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE

General and administrative expenses include insurance expense, administrative and management salaries, bad debt expense, depreciation, rent, travel expense, welfare expense, office expenses, meal and entertainment expense, conference expense, and repairs and maintenance expense.

ADVERTISING

Advertising costs are expensed when incurred and are included in selling, general and administrative expenses, which amounted to $26,001 and $4,928 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively; $53,871 and $18,675 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, 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 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 June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 were translated at 6.46 and 6.59 RMB to $1.00. The average translation rates applied to the statements of operations and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 were 6.54 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 the period required to complete the 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.

10


INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Intangible assets consist of patents, software and land use rights. 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 – 50.0 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 at internal reporting unit - individual operating subsidiary basis in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company determines the reporting units based on following factors: a. it engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses; b. its operating results are regularly reviewed by the Company’s chief operating decision makers to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance; and c. its discrete financial information is available.

A significant amount of judgment is involved in determining if an indicator of impairment has occurred. Such indicators may include current period operating or cash flow losses combined with a historical of operating or cash flow losses, a projection or forecast that demonstrates continuing operating or cash flow losses, a significant adverse change in AR collection and unanticipated technology revolution in valves industry, among others. The Company performs its annual impairment review of goodwill every year at December 31 and when a triggering event occurs between annual impairment tests. 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 Company 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 has acquired several entities resulting in the recording of intangible assets, including goodwill, which represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets of businesses acquired.

The Company has six operating subsidiaries as reporting units included in continuing operations as of June 30, 2011, among which three reporting units had goodwill. The following table represents goodwill of the three subsidiaries as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.

(in thousands)   June 30, 2011     December 31, 2010  
    (Unaudited)        
Kaifeng Valve $  10,783   $  10,783  
ZD Valve   10,029     10,029

Foreign currency translation adjustment   1,752     1,097  
           Total $  33,610   $  32,955  

No impairment loss was incurred for the year ended December 31, 2010 based on the Company’s annual impairment test.

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 three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company determined that no impairment of long-lived assets deemed necessary.

11


INVENTORIES

The Company’s aggregate inventories are carried at cost or, if lower, net realizable value determined on the weighted average method. The Company provides a reserve for estimated inventory obsolescence or excess quantities on hand equal to the difference between the cost of the inventory and its estimated realizable value. The future estimated realizable value of inventory is generally based on the historical usage of such inventory. The Company ages its inventory with no recent demand and applies various valuation factors based on the last demand from customers for such material. If future conditions cause a reduction in the Company’s current estimate of realizable value, due to a decrease in customer demand, a drop in commodity prices or other market-related factors that may influence demand for particular products, additional provisions may be required. In addition, the Company also reviews most recent quotes from vendors and compares with the carrying value of its inventory. If carrying amount of raw materials exceeds prices available at the balance sheet date, then the excess amount is directly written off and included in cost of the goods sold.

As of June 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company reserved $1,171,492 and $434,744 in allowance due to slow moving inventory, most of which are commodity valves whose technical specification no longer matched customers’ demand. Commodity valves are universal products we produce to meet general needs. $214,221 was directly written off and included in cost of goods sold after comparing the carrying value of inventory and recent market prices for the six months ended June 30, 2011.

Semi-finished products are work-in-process ("WIP") inventory at the finishing stages of production. These products that are awaiting final assembly have similar physical shape to finished goods. The Company differentiates these products from WIP for inventory management purpose.

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 three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010. U.S. 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 are comprised 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.

RESTRICTED CASH

The Company’s restricted cash consists of cash in the bank as security for its exported products, security deposits for contract performance, notes payable and cash held in escrow to pay for certain investor relations expenses. 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 is expensed as incurred. Restricted cash amounted to $2,362,731 and $1,164,598 as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, 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 the United States. Balances at financial institutions of state owned banks within the PRC are not covered by insurance. As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company’s cash and restricted cash balances, totaling $39,862,642 and $26,596,872 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 customers represented approximately 12% and 13% of the Company’s total sales for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2011, respectively. Five major customers represented approximately 15% and 13% of the Company’s total sales for six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. No major customers accounted more than 10% of the Company’s total sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010. The five major customers accounted for 7% and 9% of total accounts receivable as of June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Five major suppliers, including one related party, represented approximately 17% and 21% of the Company’s total purchases for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Five major suppliers, including a related party, represented approximately 17% and 21% of the Company’s total purchases for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. No major vendors accounted more than 10% of the Company’s total purchases for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010. The five major vendors accounted for 6% and 10% of total accounts payable as of June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

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:

13


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.

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.

14


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 $806,284 and $790,572 as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. There has been no change in the carrying value since initial investment, other than the effects of translation difference.

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 June 30, 2011, 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 June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, customer deposits amounted to $ 9,926,235 and $6,499,833, respectively.

STOCK COMPENSATION

The Company applies the accounting standard regarding 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 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 non-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 April 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-03, Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860): Reconsideration of Effective Control for Repurchase Agreements (ASU 2011-03), intended to improve financial reporting of repurchase agreements and refocus the assessment of effective control on a transferor’s contractual rights and obligations rather than practical ability to perform those rights and obligations. The guidance in ASU 2011-03 is effective for the first interim or annual period beginning on or after December 15, 2011. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2011-03 to have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-04, Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs (ASU 2011-04). ASU 2011-04 represents the converged guidance of the FASB and the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) on fair value measurement. A variety of measures are included in the update intended to either clarify existing fair value measurement requirements, change particular principles requirements for measuring fair value or for disclosing information about fair value measurements. For many of requirements, the FASB does not intend to change the application of existing requirements under Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements. ASU 2011-04 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011 and early application is not permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact adoption of ASU 2011-04 and does not expect the adoption of ASU 2011-04 will have significant impact on its financial statements.

15


In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, Presentation of Comprehensive Income (ASU 2011-05), intended to increase the prominence of items reported in other comprehensive income and to facilitate convergence of accounting guidance in this area with that of the IASB. The amendments require that all non-owner changes in stockholders’ equity be presented in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. Amendments under ASU 2011-05 for public entities should be applied retrospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning December 15, 2011. The Company is evaluating the impact adoption of ASU 2011-05 and does not expect the adoption of ASU 2011-05 will have significant impact on its financial statements..

Note 6 – Goodwill

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.

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.

On April 8, 2010, the Company acquired 100% of Hanwei Valve with a total cash consideration of approximately $19.5 million. 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 said acquisition.

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:

Expected synergies from combining operations of the Company’s operating subsidiaries and Hanwei Valve;

   
ii)

The experienced work force;

The 1.7% and 1.3% represents net expenses incurred by the Company that are not deductible for PRC income tax purpose for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

The estimated tax savings due to the reduced tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 are $725,496 and $317,330, respectively. The net effect on basic and diluted earnings per share if the income tax had been applied would decrease earnings per share by $0.02 and $0.01 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

The estimated tax savings due to the reduced tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 are $1,236,141 and $317,330, respectively.

Note 10 – Statutory reserves

The laws and regulations of the PRC require that before a foreign invested enterprise can legally distribute profits, it must first satisfy all tax liabilities, provide for losses in previous years, and make allocations, in proportions determined at the discretion of the board of directors, to the statutory reserve. The statutory reserves include the surplus reserve fund.

The Company is required to transfer 10% of its net income, as determined in accordance with the PRC accounting rules and regulations, to a statutory surplus reserve fund until such reserve balance reaches 50% of the Company’s registered capital. The transfer to this reserve must be made before distribution of any dividends to shareholders. The remaining reserve to fulfill the 50% registered capital requirement amounted approximately $14.8 million and $26.3 million as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.

The surplus reserve fund is non-distributable other than during liquidation and can be used to fund previous years’ losses, if any, and may be utilized for business expansion or converted into share capital by issuing new shares to existing shareholders in proportion to their shareholding or by increasing the par value of the shares currently held by them, provided that the remaining reserve balance after such issue is not less than 50% of the registered capital.

Contingency

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.

On June 28, 2011, the court has designated Bristol Investment Fund, Ltd. as the lead plaintiff in the securities class actions and its counsel, the Ball Law Firm, as the lead plaintiff's counsel and further consolidated all previously filed and related cases. Bristol Investment Fund, Ltd. has until August 29, 2011 to file a consolidated complaint - thus, presumably the plaintiffs' want to amend the complaint on file at its earliest convenience. The Company believes the class action lawsuits are still too preliminary to make any reasonable determination about a range of possible losses.

In January 2011, the Company issued common stock purchase warrants to acquire 250,000 shares of common stock. The warrants have a strike price equal to $10.00 per share and a term of 180 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:

The value of the warrants was based on the Company’s common stock price of $8.85 on the date the warrants were issued. The warrants were valued at $110,815 when they were issued on January 11, 2011.

Warrants issued and outstanding, all of which are exercisable at June 30, 2011,

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.

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 (unaudited):

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.

China’s valve industry is highly fragmented in terms of geography and industries served. The Company has been planning to consolidate the industry and expand its products portfolio. Yangzhou Rock is the only Chinese company to produce valve locks. It has a number of invention patents. Changsha Valve produces large size butterfly valves for the hydropower industry. Hanwei valve manufactures ball valves for the petro-chemical industry, and is also one of only two companies in the world that can produce the 24-way rotary valve.

Yangzhou Rock acquisition

In January, 2010, a subsidiary of the Company completed the acquisition of Yangzhou Rock for a total cash consideration of $7.2 million from an unaffiliated third party. The acquisition was accounted as a business combination in accordance to the terms of the purchase agreement and no contingent consideration arrangements were associated with the acquisition. The Company assumed the following net assets:

Yangzhou Rock   Fair Value     Assumed by
the Company
 
Inventory $  1,734,593   $  1,734,593  
Buildings and Equipment   3,350,119     3,350,119  
Intangible Assets   3,111,580     3,111,580  
Total assets   8,196,292     8,196,292  
Total liabilities   -     -  
Net assets $  8,196,292   $  8,196,292  

27


The Company allocated the purchase price based on the fair value of the assets acquired and recorded a gain of approximately $1.0 million in other income in the current period.

Changsha Valve acquisition

In February 2010, the Company acquired all the equity interests in Changsha Valve, formerly an indirect subsidiary of Watts Water Technologies, Inc. (‘Watts”), for a purchase price of $12.12 million plus $2.8 million for other payments associated with the acquisition, an aggregate expenditure of approximately $15.0 million at the time of acquisition. Changsha Valve was purchased from Able Delight Investment, Ltd. (“Able Delight”), which had acquired Changsha Valve from Watts in January 2010 with $6.07 million from funds loaned to it by the Company. 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. No contingent consideration arrangements were associated with the acquisition. The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination in accordance with the terms of the purchase agreement. Net assets acquired included the following:

Changsha Valve   Fair Value     Assumed by
the Company
 
Cash $  8,740   $  8,740  
Receivables   3,454,156     3,454,156  
Inventory   4,954,596     4,954,596  
Buildings and equipment   4,595,254     4,595,254  
Intangible Assets   5,490,873     5,490873  
Total assets   18,503,619     18,503,619  
Payables   3,703,845     3,703,845  
Total liabilities   3,703,845     3,703,845  
Net assets $  14,799,774   $  14,799,774  

The Company allocated the purchase price based on the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed and recorded a gain of approximately $2.68 million in other income in the current period.

As the purchase agreement between Able Delight and Watts did not cover indemnification for liability associated with the disclosure regarding the possible improper payments to foreign government officials by employees of Changsha Valve, the Company has successor liability for any potential liabilities.

Hanwei Valve acquisition

In April 2010, the Company acquired Hanwei Valve from unaffiliated individuals who owned Hanwei Valve through two holding entities - Shanghai Han Huang Investment Co., Ltd and Hong Kong Han Xi Co., Ltd for an aggregate consideration of $19.5 million.

Net Assets of Hanwei Valve acquired at the acquisition date were as follow:

Hanwei Valve   Fair Value     Assumed by
the Company
 
Inventory $  1,802,490   $  1,802,490  
Buildings and Equipment   2,526,087     2,526,087  
Intangible Assets   4,121,271     4,121,271  
Total assets   8,449,848     8,449,848  
Total liabilities   -     -  
Net assets $  8,449,848   $  8,449,848  
             
Consideration paid   19,495,922     19,495,922  
Goodwill $  11,046,074   $  11,046,074  

28


The Company allocated the purchase price based on the fair value of the assets acquired and recorded goodwill of approximately $11.0 million in the current period. The goodwill recognized in conjunction with the acquisition of Hanwei represents intangible values that Hanwei 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:

v)

Expected synergies from combining operations of the Company’s operating subsidiaries and Hanwei Valve;

   
vi)

The experienced work force;

   
vii)

Proprietary technologies related to certain products; and

   
viii)

The proprietary manufacturing processes.

Pursuant to Regulation Section 197(c)(1), amortization under Section 197 is not available for the cost of acquiring stock. Thus, no goodwill would be deductible for tax purposes in connection with the Hanwei acquisition.

The following unaudited pro forma condensed income statement for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 were prepared under generally accepted accounting principles, as if the acquisitions of Hanwei Valve, Yangzhou Rock and Changsha Valve had occurred as of the first day of the respective periods.

The decrease in gross margin was because higher inflation in China resulted in a 5% to 15% increase in the cost of raw materials which generally accounts for around 80% of the unit cost of our valves during the period, such as purchase prices of casting and forging steel, steel bars, shafts, bolts, nuts and etc. Higher labor cost also contributed to lower gross margin. Furthermore, during the period we sold more medium to low pressure valves with lower profit margin, which also contributed to the decrease in gross profit margin.

Operating expenses. Our total operating expenses increased by $3.5 million, or 58.6%, to $9.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011, from $5.9 million for the same period in 2010. The increase was primarily attributable to a 110.9% increase in our general and administrative expenses during the 2011 period. Total expenses as a percentage of sales increased to 16.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from 12.0% for the same period in 2010.

Selling expenses. Selling expenses, which consist primarily of sales commission, advertising and promotion expenses, freight charges and related compensation, were $2.8 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2011, compared with $2.8 million for the period ended June 30, 2010, a decrease of $0.01 million, or approximately 0.4%, which suggests that the implementation of the cost control and centralized sales function were working during the period in 2011.

General and administrative expenses. Our general and administrative expenses, which consist primarily of related salaries and benefits, business development, traveling expenses, legal and professional expenses, depreciation, and bad debt expenses, were $6.4 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2011, compared with $3.0 million for the period ended June 30, 2010, an increase of $3.4 million, or approximately 110.9%. The increase is due to $1.3 million stock-based compensation expense for the shares issued to directors and officers for the period ended June 30, 2011, compared with $0.01 million for the same period in 2010; higher bad debt expenses, which were $0.6 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2011, compared with $0.01 million bad debt recovery for the period ended June 30, 2010, an increase of $0.6 million. Higher labor costs also resulted in higher general and administrative expenses in the period.

Management reviewed accounts receivable balances periodically and, based on an assessment of the historical bad debts rate, individual customer receivable balances and aging, customers’ financial conditions, project status in which our valves are used, retainage and current economic trends. 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 the trade balance is less than one year. Due to the specificities of our industry, collectability of accounts receivable with aging more than one year was assessed case by case. Before our customers’ projects in which our valves installed are completed and/or the corresponding retainage is due, the customers’ receivable with aging more than one year is generally considered to be recoverable.

33


Further, our allowance for doubtful debts accounted for an insignificant portion of the receivable balance in spite of the increasing trade receivable balance throughout the reporting periods. Many of our customers who have long-time business relationships have good settlement histories. In the absence of significant bad debt experience, we consider the existing provisioning policy as adequate.

For the three months ended June 30, 2011, based on individual collectability assessment, including aging analysis, customer visit and interviews and background research, management decided there would be a higher possibility of failure to collection from several customers due to unfavorable economic trends and poor market liquidity and a $0.1 million allowance has been reserved against their accounts receivable.

Income from Operations. Income from operations was $14.4 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2011, compared with $17.1 million for the period ended June 30, 2010. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower gross margin and higher general and administrative expenses in the second quarter 2011.

Income taxes. We incurred income taxes of $3.7 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2011. This is a decrease of $0.3 million, or 8.4%, from the taxes we incurred in the 2010 period, which were $4.0 million. It was in line with the decrease in income from operations.

Net income. As a result of the foregoing factors, our net income decreased by $3.5 million, or 24.5%, to $10.8 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2011, from $14.3 million for the same period in 2010. Net income as a percentage of sales was 18.7% and 29.0% for the three month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Sales. Our sales revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2011 amounted to $99.6 million, which is approximately $23.6 million, or 31.0%, more than that of the same period in 2010, when we had revenue of $76.0 million. The increase can be attributed to Hanwei Valve, a subsidiary acquired on April 8, 2010, operated fully during the period ended June 30, 2011, which contributed $6.5 million sales, compared with only 83 days operation in the same period of 2010. Meanwhile, Changsha Valves contributed $2.7 million sales, which was acquired on February 3, 2010, and operated fully during the period ended June 30, 2011. The acquisitions of Hanwei Valve and Changsha Valve attributed 12.1% growth of sales for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared with the same period in 2010. In addition, strong demand for our products in the power supply sector, and petrochemical and oil sector also helped increase in sales. Sales increases in both sectors for the six months ended June 30, 2011 were 22.5% and 30.5%, respectively, compared with the same period in 2010. Sales of gate valves and global valves for the six months ended June 30, 2011 were 47.3% and 54.3%, respectively, more than the same period in 2010. Organic growth in sales for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was 18.9% compared with the same period in 2010.

The following tables set forth our sales by valve types, in terms of sales revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010.

Cost of sales. Our cost of sales was $58.4 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2011, an increase of $19.2 million, or 49.0%, as compared with $39.2 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2010. Cost of sales as a percentage of total sales were 58.6% and 51.5% for the six month periods ended on June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The increase was mainly due to the acquisition of a new business, Hanwei Valve and Changsha Valve, which contributed $6.0 million, 10.3% to the total cost of sales. The increase was in line with the increase in sales revenues due to higher raw material and labor costs.

Gross profit and gross margin. Gross profit was $41.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, an increase of $4.4 million, or 11.9%, as compared with $36.8 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2010. Our gross profit margin decreased to 41.4% as compared to 48.5% in the same period of 2010. The decrease in gross margin was because newly acquired subsidiary Hanwei Valve had a lower gross profit margin, 32.9%, as the products sold by the subsidiary during the period, such as gate valves and ball valves, had lower gross profit margins than that of the butterfly valves and high pressure valves sold by ZD Valve and Kaifeng Valve. In addition, the higher raw material costs with around 5% to 15% increase resulted in lower overall gross profit margin. Furthermore, during the period we sold more medium to low pressure valves, which generally have lower selling prices, which also contributed to the decrease in gross profit margin.

Operating expenses. Our total operating expenses increased by $7.2 million, or 69.5%, to $17.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, from $10.4 million for the same period in 2010. The increase was primarily attributable to a 20.1% increase in our selling expenses and a 104.2% increase in our general and administrative expenses during the 2011 period. Total expenses as a percentage of sales increased to 17.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from 13.7% for the same period in 2010.

Selling expenses. Our selling expenses were $5.1 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2011, compared with $4.2 million for the period ended June 30, 2010, an increase of $0.8 million, or approximately 20.1%, while new acquired business Hanwei Valve and Changsha vales contributed $0.4 million. As overall sales increased, sales commissions, freight charges and marketing and promotion expenses have increased as well. As a percentage of sales, total selling expenses increased to 5.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from 5.5% for the same period in 2010.

General and administrative expenses. Our general and administrative expenses were $12.4 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2011, compared with $6.1 million for the period ended June 30, 2010, an increase of $6.3 million, or approximately 104.2%. The increase is primarily due to the acquisition of, Hanwei Valve and Changsha Valves, which contributed $0.7 million and also an increase in management labor cost. And $1.3 million stock-based compensation expense for the shares granted to directors and officer for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared with $0.03 million for the same period in 2010. Bad debt expenses, which were $1.8 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2011, compared with $0.1 million for the period ended June 30, 2010, an increase of $1.7 million, also resulted in higher general and administrative expenses in the period.

Income from Operations. Income from operations was $23.6 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2011, compared with $26.4 million for the period ended June 30, 2010. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower gross margin and higher general and administrative expenses in the 2011 period.

Income taxes. We incurred income taxes of $6.1 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2011. This is a decrease of $0.2 million, or 2.8%, from the taxes we incurred in the 2010 period, which were $6.3 million. This is in line with the decrease of income from operations.

Net income. As a result of the foregoing factors, our net income decreased by $2.6 million, or 12.2%, to $18.4 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2011, from $20.9 million for the same period in 2010. Net income as a percentage of sales was 18.4% and 27.5% for the six month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

To date, we have financed our operations primarily through cash flows from operations, augmented by short-term bank borrowings and equity contributions by our stockholders. As of June 30, 2011, we had cash and cash equivalents of $37.6 million. The following table sets forth a summary of our cash flows for the periods indicated:

37


Cash Flow
(all amounts in thousands of U.S. dollars)

    Six Months Ended June 30,  
    2011     2010  
    (Unaudited)  
Net cash provided by operating activities $  2,414   $  5,149  
Net cash used in investing activities   (1,201 )   (31,096 )
Net cash provided by financing activities   10,083     24,534  
Effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents   515     290  
Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents   11,811     (1,123 )
Cash and cash equivalents at beginning of the period   25,821     14,485  
Cash and cash equivalent at end of the period $  37,632   $  13,362  

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities was $2.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011, compared with net cash provided by operating activities of $5.1 million in the same period in 2010. The decrease was primarily attributable to the increase in accounts receivable and inventory.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities decreased to $1.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011, compared with $31.1 million in the same period in 2010, which was used primarily for the acquisitions of Hanwei Valve, Changsha Valve and Yangzhou Rock. The net cash used in investing activities during the period ended June 30, 2011 was primarily used for the purchase of equipment, intangible assets and payments made for construction in progress.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities was $10.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011, compared with net cash provided by financing activities of $24.5 million in the same period in 2010 as we received less net proceeds from the January 2011 registered direct offering than those from the January 2010 registered direct offering. As of June 30, 2011, there was no principal outstanding under our credit facilities and lines of credit.

In January 2011, we conducted a registered direct offering of an aggregate of 1,000,000 shares of our common stock to several accredited institutional investors at a price of $10.00 per share for gross proceeds of approximately $10 million. In addition, we issued the investors warrants to purchase an aggregate of 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 been used for working capital.

Capital Expenditures

The capital expenditures in the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 are set out as below. Our capital expenditures were used primarily for plant construction and the purchase of equipment to expand our production capacity. The table below sets forth the breakdown of our capital expenditures by use for the periods indicated.

(all amounts in thousands of U.S. dollars)

    Six Months Ended June 30,  
    2011     2010  
    (Unaudited)  
Acquisition of intangible assets $  71   $  220  
Advance on equipment purchases   12     -  
Purchase of equipment and intangible assets   1,158     2,330  
Acquisition and investment   -     28,546  
Total capital expenditures $  1,241   $  31,096  

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

Seasonality of our Sales

Our operating results and operating cash flows historically have not been subject to seasonal variations. This pattern may change, however, as a result of new market opportunities or new product introductions.

Inflation

Inflation does not materially affect our business or the results of our operations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to our investors.

Critical Accounting Policies

Critical accounting policies are those we believe are most important to portraying our financial conditions and results of operations and also require the greatest amount of subjective or complex judgments by management. Judgments and uncertainties regarding the application of these policies may result in materially different amounts being reported under various conditions or using different assumptions. There have been no material changes to the critical accounting policies previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 2 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report.

ITEM 3.     QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

Our operations are carried out in the PRC and we are subject to specific considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in North America and Western Europe. Accordingly, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic and legal environments in the PRC, and by the general state of the PRC economy. Our 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.

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to interest rate risk primarily with respect to our short-term bank loans. Although the interest rates, which are based on the banks’ prime rates with respect to our short-term loans are fixed for the terms of the loans, the terms are typically three to twelve months for short-term bank loans and interest rates are subject to change upon renewal. There were no material changes in interest rates for short-term bank loans renewed during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011.

A hypothetical 1.0% increase in the annual interest rates for all of our credit facilities under which we had outstanding borrowings as of June 30, 2011 would decrease net income before provision for income taxes by approximately $0.03 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011. Management monitors the banks’ prime rates in conjunction with our cash requirements to determine the appropriate level of debt balances relative to other sources of funds. We have not entered into any hedging transactions in an effort to reduce our exposure to interest rate risk.

39


Foreign Exchange Risk

While our reporting currency is the U.S. Dollar, all of our consolidated revenues and consolidated costs and majority of expenses are denominated in RMB. All of our assets are denominated in RMB, except certain cash balances. 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 U.S. Dollars and RMB. If RMB depreciates against the U.S. Dollar, the value of our RMB revenues, earnings and assets as expressed in our U.S. Dollar financial statements will decline. Assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates at the balance sheet dates and revenue and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates and shareholders’ equity is translated at historical exchange rates. Any resulting translation adjustments are not included in determining net income but are included in determining other comprehensive income, a component of stockholder’s equity. We have not entered into any hedging transactions in an effort to reduce our exposure to foreign exchange risk.

The value of the RMB against the U.S. dollar and other currencies is affected by, among other things, changes in China’s political and economic conditions. Since July 2005, the RMB has not been pegged to the U.S. dollar. Although the People’s Bank of China is regularly involved 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 or Euro 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 involvement in the foreign exchange market.

Account Balances

We maintain balances at financial institutions which, from time to time, may exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limits for the banks located in the United States or may exceed Hong Kong Deposit Protection Board insured limits for the banks located in Hong Kong. Balances at financial institutions or state-owned banks within the PRC are not covered by insurance. Total cash in banks and restricted cash as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 amounted to $39,862,642 and $26,596,872, respectively, all of which are not covered by insurance. We have not experienced any losses in such accounts and we do not believe that we are exposed to any significant risks on our cash in bank accounts.

Inflation

Inflationary factors such as increases in the cost of our sales and overhead costs may adversely affect our operating results. Although we do not believe that inflation has had a material impact on our financial position or results of operations to date, 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, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales if the selling prices of our products do not increase with these increased costs.

ITEM 4.     CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Disclosure controls and procedures refer to controls and other procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As required by Rule 13a-15(e), our management has carried out an evaluation, with the participation and under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Jianbao Wang and our Chief Financial Officer, Mr. Gang Wei, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as of June 30, 2011. Based upon, and as of the date of this evaluation, Messrs. Wang and Wei, determined that, because of the material weaknesses described in Item 9A “Controls and Procedures” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, which we are still in the process of remediating as of June 30, 2011, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

Investors are directed to Item 9A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 for the description of these weaknesses.

Our management has implemented the following changes in our internal controls over financial reporting system during the six months ended June 30, 2011:

a.

Involved both internal accounting and operations personnel and outside contractors with technical accounting expertise early in the evaluation of our complex, non-routine transactions to obtain additional guidance as to the application of generally accepted accounting principles to such transactions;

  
b.

Required 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 also consulted experts in the event that transactions were beyond our comprehension;

  
c.

Trained internal accounting personnel in generally accepted accounting principals in the United States; and

  
d.

Strengthened our  internal audit function by hiring an experienced internal audit manager.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We regularly review our system of internal control over financial reporting and make changes to our processes and systems to improve controls and increase efficiency, while ensuring that we maintain an effective internal control environment. Changes may include such activities as implementing new, more efficient systems, consolidating activities, and migrating processes.

There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the second quarter of fiscal 2011 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II
OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. 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.

On June 28, 2011, the court has designated Bristol Investment Fund, Ltd. as the lead plaintiff in the securities class actions and its counsel, the Ball Law Firm, as the lead plaintiff's counsel and further consolidated all previously filed and related cases. Bristol Investment Fund, Ltd. has until August 29, 2011 to file a consolidated complaint - thus, presumably the plaintiffs' want to amend the complaint on file at its earliest convenience. The Company believes the class action lawsuits are still too preliminary to make any reasonable determination about a range of possible losses.
