PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
  
This summary contains basic information about us and this offering. You should read the entire prospectus carefully, especially the risks of investing in our common stock discussed under “Risk Factors.” Some of the statements contained in this prospectus, including statements under “Summary” and “Risk Factors” as well as those noted in the documents incorporated herein by reference, are forward-looking statements and may involve a number of risks and uncertainties. We note that our actual results and future events may differ significantly based upon a number of factors. You should not put undue reliance on the forward-looking statements in this document, which speak only as of the date on the cover of this prospectus.

References to “we,” “our,” “us,” the “Company,” or “Energroup” refer to Energroup Holdings Corporation, a Nevada corporation, and its consolidated subsidiaries.
 
ENERGROUP HOLDINGS CORPORATION

Energroup Holdings Corporation, through its subsidiaries, is engaged in the business of producing, packing, selling, marketing and distributing fresh pork and processed meat products to clients throughout the People’s Republic of China (“China” or the “PRC”). We are the second largest pork producer in northeastern China, which has a population of approximately 108 million. In 2006, we had approximately US $70.3 million in sales and US $12.6 million in gross profit.

We own three PRC operating subsidiaries (collectively, the “Chuming Operating Subsidiaries”):
 
1.
Dalian Chuming Slaughter and Packaging Pork Company Ltd. (the “Meat Company”), whose primary business activity is acquiring, slaughtering and packaging of pork and cattle;
 
2.
Dalian Chuming Processed Foods Company Ltd. (the “Foods Company”), whose primary business activity is the processing of raw and cooked meat products; and
 
3.
Dalian Chuming Sales Company Ltd. (the “Sales Company”), which is responsible for our sales, marketing and distribution activities.
 
Our three operating subsidiaries are spun off constituents of a former parent company, Dalian Chuming Group Co., Ltd. (the “Chuming Group”). We are headquartered in the City of Dalian, Liaoning Province, the People's Republic of China (PRC).
 
Corporate Reorganization
 
PRC law currently limits foreign ownership of certain companies based in the PRC. In order for us to raise equity capital from investors outside of China, we established an offshore holding company by the name of Precious Sheen Investments Limited (“PSI”) in the British Virgin Islands in May 2007. On September 26, 2007, the Chuming Group agreed to spin off and separate the Chuming Operating Subsidiaries from the Chuming Group, and these subsidiaries became wholly owned subsidiaries of Dalian Precious Sheen Investments Counsulting Co., Ltd., which is referred to in this prospectus as “Chuming.” The spin-off was accomplished by means of a series of share transfer agreements with the former parent company of the Chuming Operating Subsidiaries, the Chuming Group.  On October 23, 2007, Chuming completed all required registrations to complete the share transfer, and became the 100% owner of the Chuming Operating Subsidiaries. On November 14, 2007 the Dalian Commerce Bureau approved the transfer of Dalian Chuming Group Co., Ltd.’s 68% interest in Chuming to PSI, and upon this transfer, Chuming became a wholly foreign owned enterprise, with PSI as the 100% owner of Chuming (including its subsidiaries). On December 13, 2007, the PRC government authorities issued Chuming a business license formally recognizing it as a wholly foreign owned enterprise, of which PSI is the sole shareholder.

Following this corporate restructuring, PSI became the 100% owner and parent company of Dalian Precious Sheen Investments Consulting Co., Ltd. (“Chuming”), which in turn owns 100% of the Chuming Operating Subsidiaries: the Meat Company, the Foods Company and the Sales Company.

Throughout this prospectus, PSI, Chuming and the Chuming Operating Subsidiaries are sometimes collectively referred to as the “Company” or  “Chuming”. Dalian Chuming Group Co., Ltd., which is a separate privately-held PRC company and the former owner and parent company of the Chuming Operating Subsidiaries, is sometimes referred to as the “Chuming Group".

Share Exchange Transaction
 
On December 31, 2007, we acquired all of the outstanding shares of PSI in exchange for the issuance of 16,850,000 restricted shares of our common stock to the shareholders of PSI (“PSI Shareholders”). Immediately following this share exchange transaction (“Exchange Transaction”), the PSI Shareholders acquired approximately 97.55% of the then-issued and outstanding common stock of Energroup (excluding the shares issued in the “Strategic Financing” described below). As a result of this Exchange Transaction, PSI became our wholly owned subsidiary and we acquired the business and operations of Chuming.

Prior to the Exchange Transaction, Energroup was a public reporting “shell” company with nominal assets whose sole business was to identify, evaluate and investigate various companies with the intent that, if such investigation warrants, a reverse merger transaction be negotiated and completed pursuant to which Energroup would acquire a target company with an operating business with the intent of continuing the acquired company’s business as a publicly held entity.

As a result of the Exchange Transaction, PSI (and its subsidiaries) became the 100% owned subsidiary of Energroup Holdings Corporation, and we acquired the business and operations of Chuming.

$17 Million Financing

Concurrently with the Exchange Transaction, we sold and issued 3,863,635 shares of our common stock to ten accredited investors for an aggregate purchase price of US $17,000,000, or $4.40 per share, under a securities purchase agreement (the “Financing”). See the section below entitled “Strategic Financing.”

Financial Position

Our consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and the fiscal years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004 are included in this prospectus. For the nine months ended September 30, 2007, we achieved USD $89,718,84 in net sales and USD $14,752,390 in gross profit.  In fiscal 2006, we achieved USD $70,396,439 in net sales and USD $12,601,586 in gross profit. In fiscal 2005, we achieved USD $54,119,895 in net sales and USD $8,835,709 in gross profit. In fiscal 2004, we achieved USD $654,749 in net sales and USD $56,724 in gross profit. See Index to Consolidated Financial Information” beginning on page F-1.

SUMMARY OF RISK FACTORS

This document contains certain statements of a forward-looking nature. Such forward-looking statements, including but not limited to growth and strategies, future operating and financial results, financial expectations and current business indicators are based upon current information and expectations and are subject to change based on factors beyond our control. Forward-looking statements typically are identified by the use of terms such as “look,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “might,” “believe,” “plan,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate” and similar words, although some forward-looking statements are expressed differently. The accuracy of such statements may be impacted by a number of business risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected or anticipated, including but not limited to:

 
·
our ability to timely and accurately complete orders for our products;
 
 
·
our dependence on a limited number of major customers;
 
 
·
political and economic conditions within the PRC;
 
 
·
our ability to expand and grow our distribution channels;
 
 
·
general economic conditions which affect consumer demand for our products;
 
 
·
the effect of terrorist acts, or the threat thereof, on consumer confidence and spending;
 
 
·
acceptance in the marketplace of our new products and changes in consumer preferences;
 
 
·
foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations;
 
 
·
our ability to identify and successfully execute cost control initiatives;
 
 
·
other risks outlined above and in our other public filings.
 
You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this document. We undertake no obligation to update this forward-looking information.
 
While our management fully intends to make concerted efforts to manage these risks, we cannot assure you that we will be able to do so successfully. See “Risk Factors” beginning on page 31 of this prospectus.

STRATEGIC FINANCING

On December 31, 2007, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) pursuant to which we agreed to issue and sell 3,863,635 shares of our common stock to fifteen accredited investors for an aggregate purchase price of $17,000,000, or $4.40 per share (the “Financing”). The closing of the Financing coincided with the closing of the Exchange Transaction.
 
3



In connection with the Purchase Agreement, we agreed to set aside $4.25 million of the purchase price in a holdback escrow account, $2.0 million of which is to be released upon appointment and confirmation of a board of directors comprised of a majority of independent directors, $1.5 million of which shall be released to us upon appointment of a new Chief Financial Officer meeting certain qualifications, $500,000 of which is to be released upon selection of a successor independent accounting firm, and $250,000 of which shall be applied towards certain investor relations activities. We will owe partial liquidated damages to the investors equal to 0.5% per month (prorated daily) for each investor’s investment amount if, among other things, we do not successfully appoint a new Chief Financial Officer within 90 days after the closing of the Financing.
 
Under the terms of our arrangement with Hunter Wise Securities, LLC, our placement agent for the financing, we paid a commission equal to 7% of the aggregate gross proceeds of the Financing, plus an a amount equal to 3% of such proceeds to reimburse expenses of the placement agent. We also paid $75,000 to the lead investor in the Financing as reimbursement for fees and legal expenses. After deduction of these payments and our expenses, the resulting net proceeds to us was approximately $14.8 million.
 
Under the terms of the Financing, we agreed to a “make good” provision, under which certain of our founders’ shares were set aside in escrow, and must be released to the investors in the event that we do not meet specified earnings targets of $15.9 million in after-tax net income for 2008, and $20.9 million in after-tax net income and fully-diluted earnings per share of $0.99 for 2009. If the 2008 after-tax net income target is not met, 1,931,818 shares of common stock held by our founders (approximately 9.1% of the issued and outstanding shares) will be transferred to the investors pro rata in proportion to their investment in the Financing without any further consideration from or action by the investors. If both the 2009 after-tax net income and earnings per share targets are not met, an additional 1,931,818 shares of common stock (approximately 9.1% of the issued and outstanding shares) held by our founders will be transferred to the investors, also on a pro rata basis. “After-tax net income” is defined in the Purchase Agreement, and is calculated based upon our audited financial statements prepared by U.S. auditors in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. For purposes of determining whether or not “after-tax net income” has been achieved by us, any direct or indirect tax breaks, tax holidays, tax credits or similar tax benefits, compensation, grant or any other remuneration or deduction granted by any governmental authority or body which benefits us are excluded from the calculation.

We agreed to register for resale the 3,863,635 shares of common stock acquired by the investors pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-1, of which this prospectus forms a part. We also agreed to register the 1,931,818 shares for the 2008 “make good” escrow and the 1,931,818 shares for the 2009 “make good” escrow, which forms the total number of shares registered under this prospectus of 7,727,271 shares. In the event that our registration statement is not declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) within 135 days of the closing of the Financing, we will also owe liquidated damages to the investors of 1% of the total financing amount in cash per month after the 135 day period. The liquidated damages payable to the investors in the event of non-registration or late effectiveness is subject to a maximum limit of 10% of the total financing amount, or $1.7 million. The investor’s registration rights and our registration obligations are set forth in a registration rights agreement which we entered into in connection with the Financing.
 
Our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, who indirectly owns shares of our common stock through family-owned entities and trusts, agreed that his family-owned entities will enter into a lockup agreement under which these shareholders may not offer or sell their securities for a period of one year following the date on which the registration statement is declared effective. This lockup agreement was entered into at the closing of the Financing transaction.

The investors in the Financing have a right of first refusal on any placement or offering by us of debt or equity securities for a one year period following the date on which the registration statement is declared effective. The investors’ right of first refusal does not apply to options or warrants that we may issue to employees or consultants, or to non-affiliates as compensation for services, to securities issued in acquisitions or strategic investments that are not related to raising capital for the Company, or to securities issued in underwritten public offerings.
 
The Financing was subject to the completion of customary due diligence procedures conducted by our investors and their advisors, and we made various representations and warranties in the Purchase Agreement regarding our business, operations and corporate affairs. The Financing is also subject to rescission by the investors in the event that the PRC government challenges or otherwise adversely affects the Exchange Transaction (and the related corporate restructuring of Chuming in the PRC as a prelude to the transaction), if we cannot undo such governmental action or otherwise address the material adverse effect to the reasonable satisfaction of the investors within sixty (60) days after the action occurs.
 
Among other terms of the Financing, we agreed to reimburse the lead investor for certain fees and expenses in connection with the Financing, and allocate $250,000 of the proceeds from the Financing for our investor relations program. In December 2007, Chuming (our wholly owned subsidiary), agreed to engage Hayden Communications International, Inc. as our investor relations and public relations consultant. Under this arrangement, Hayden Communications agreed to provide us with consulting services for 13 months in exchange for fees consisting of $9,500 per month and 30,000 restricted shares of our common stock.
 
As a result of the closing of the Exchange Transaction and Purchase Agreement, the PSI Shareholders now own 81.7%, and the investors in the Financing own 18.3%, respectively, of our presently issued and outstanding capital stock. The closing of these transactions occurred on December 31, 2007 (the “Closing Date”). At the Closing Date, we had a total of 21,136,391 shares of its common stock issued and outstanding.

The securities were offered and sold in the financing to accredited investors in reliance on an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), under Regulation D. At the time of the closing, the offering was not registered under the Securities Act or any state securities or “blue sky” laws.

BUSINESS
 
Company Organization
 
We produce, pack, sell, market and distribute fresh pork and processed meat products to customers in the People’s Republic of China (“China” or the “PRC”).

We own three PRC operating subsidiaries (collectively, the “Chuming Operating Subsidiaries”):
 
1.
Dalian Chuming Slaughter and Packaging Pork Company Ltd. (the “Meat Company”), whose primary business activity is acquiring, slaughtering and packaging of pork and cattle;
 
2.
Dalian Chuming Processed Foods Company Ltd. (the “Foods Company”), whose primary business activity is the processing of raw and cooked meat products; and
 
3.
Dalian Chuming Sales Company Ltd. (the “Sales Company”), which is responsible for our sales, marketing and distribution activities.
 
The three operating subsidiaries are spun off constituents of a former parent company, Dalian Chuming Group Co., Ltd. (the “Chuming Group”). Our company is separate and independent from the Chuming Group, which operates a different business and has different operations from ours. We took over ownership and control of the three Chuming Operating Subsidiaries from the Chuming Group in September 2007 following our corporate reorganization (See subheading entitled “Corporate Reorganization” on page 1 of this prospectus). We are headquartered in the City of Dalian, Liaoning Province of China.
 
Corporate Reorganization
 
PRC law currently limits foreign ownership of certain companies based in the PRC. In order for us to raise equity capital from investors outside of China, we established an offshore holding company by the name of Precious Sheen Investments Limited (“PSI”) in the British Virgin Islands in May 2007. On September 26, 2007, Chuming entered into share transfer agreements with Dalian Chuming Group Co., Ltd., under which Dalian Chuming Group Co., Ltd. agreed to transfer ownership of the Chuming Operating Subsidiaries to Chuming. On October 23, 2007, Chuming completed all required registrations to complete the share transfer, and became the 100% owner of the Chuming Operating Subsidiaries. On November 14, 2007 the Dalian Commerce Bureau approved the transfer of Dalian Chuming Group Co., Ltd.’s 68% interest in Chuming to PSI, and upon this transfer, Chuming became a wholly foreign owned enterprise, with PSI as the 100% owner of Chuming (including its subsidiaries). On December 13, 2007, the PRC government authorities issued Chuming a business license formally recognizing it as a wholly foreign owned enterprise, of which PSI is the sole shareholder.

Following this corporate restructuring, PSI became the 100% owner and parent company of Dalian Precious Sheen Investments Consulting Co., Ltd. (“Chuming”), which in turn owns 100% of the Chuming Operating Subsidiaries: the Meat Company, the Foods Company and the Sales Company.

Throughout this prospectus, PSI, Chuming and the Chuming Operating Subsidiaries are sometimes collectively referred to as “Chuming.”
 
Share Exchange Transaction
 
On December 31, 2007, we acquired all of the outstanding shares of PSI in exchange for the issuance of 16,850,000 restricted shares of our common stock to the shareholders of PSI, which represented approximately 97.55% of  then-issued and outstanding common stock (excluding the shares issued in the Financing). As a result of that transaction, PSI became our wholly owned subsidiary and we acquired the business and operations of Chuming.

Prior to the Exchange Transaction, Energroup was a public reporting “shell” company with nominal assets whose sole business was to identify, evaluate and investigate various companies with the intent that, if such investigation warrants, a reverse merger transaction be negotiated and completed pursuant to which Energroup would acquire a target company with an operating business with the intent of continuing the acquired company’s business as a publicly held entity.

As a result of the Exchange Transaction, PSI (and its subsidiaries) became the 100% owned subsidiary of Energroup Holdings Corporation, and we acquired the business and operations of Chuming.

$17 Million Financing

On December 3, 2007, we completed a $17 million private placement in which we sold and issued 3,863,635 shares of our common stock to ten accredited investors for $4.40 per share. See the section in the summary above entitled “Strategic Financing.”  

Company Overview and History
 
Our business originated from the founding in 1999 of Dalian Chuming Group Co., Ltd. the former parent of Chuming. We began as a processor and supplier of fresh and frozen meat and meat products. Chuming is now among a select group of industrialized farming corporations in northeastern China, and is known for its world-class quality management standards and international safety certifications. We are the second largest pork producer in both China’s Northeastern Region (which has a population of approximately 108 million), as well as in Liaoning Province (which has a population of approximately 42 million), and is the largest in Dalian city (which has a population of approximately 3 million). At present, all of our sales are within China, which is the largest pork-consuming nation in the world, with a total of 54 million metric tons consumed in 2006. In addition to pork being the meat of choice among Chinese consumers, due to the rapid development of the Chinese economy, urbanization and strong income growth, pork consumption patterns are changing and consumption levels are continuing to increase. We have has been a significant producer and supplier in China’s meat industry and has experienced profitability and growth since its inception in 1999. From 2003 to 2006, Chuming’s sales grew at an average rate of 42% per annum.
 
Since 1999, we have been producing and marketing frozen fresh pork and meat products. Our major products are:
 
 
·
Fresh meat - pork that is processed in a controlled environmental chamber with closely monitored temperatures to ensure quality and safety standards during processing right up to the time of delivery to the consumer.

 
·
Frozen fresh meat - butchered pigs that are processed and immediately frozen, which includes such products as smoked pork, ham and roasts.

 
·
Frozen fresh byproducts - pork byproducts including pig’s liver, stomach, intestine, head and hoof.
 
We are part of an established pork production cycle that culminates in sales of fresh and frozen pork. This cycle includes feedstuff production (of which Dalian Chuming Group Co., Ltd. is capable of producing 300,000 tons annually, feeding one million pigs), pig breeding, slaughtering, processing, packaging and distribution.

The predecessor company of the Dalian Chuming Group Co., Ltd., the Dalian Chuming Industry Co., established the first modern pig-breeding farm in Dalian in 1992. This initiative was undertaken as a major project of the ‘Vegetable Basket Project’ in Dalian. The Vegetable Basket Project is a government-funded program devised by China’s Ministry of Agriculture to improve China’s unstable food supply and increase food production.
 
We are the first company in China’s meat industry to receive “Green Food” certification from China’s Ministry of Agriculture. Green Food is an innovative certification program unique to China that is awarded to food processors who produce using environmentally sustainable methods and meet certain high technical standards of quality control, safety, and product quality, and generate low levels of pollution. Under strict supervision, control and regulation in production, processing, packing, storage and transportation, Green Food-certified companies must apply these quality control standards from field to customer and regulate the application of inputs, including pesticide, fertilizer, veterinary drug and additives to minimize environmental pollution and prevent toxic and harmful substances from entering the food supply chain. The Green Food certification is based on standards defined by the Codex Alimentarius Commission (“CAC”), a joint body of the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization and the World Health Organization.

PRC law currently limits foreign ownership of certain companies based in the PRC. In order for us to raise equity capital from investors outside of China, we established an offshore holding company by the name of Precious Sheen Investments Limited (“PSI”) in the British Virgin Islands in May 2007. On September 26, 2007, In 2007, the Chuming Group completed a corporate reorganization whereby the Chuming Operating Subsidiaries (namely, the Meat Company, the Foods Company and the Sales Company) spun off and separated from the Chuming Group. On October 23, 2007, Chuming completed all required registrations to complete the share transfer, and became the 100% owner of the Chuming Operating Subsidiaries. On November 14, 2007 the Dalian Commerce Bureau approved the transfer of Dalian Chuming Group Co., Ltd.’s 68% interest in Chuming to PSI, and upon this transfer, Chuming became a wholly foreign owned enterprise, with PSI as the 100% owner of Chuming (including its subsidiaries). On December 13, 2007, the PRC government authorities issued Chuming a business license formally recognizing it as a wholly foreign owned enterprise, of which PSI is the sole shareholder.

Following this corporate restructuring, PSI became the 100% owner and parent company of Dalian Precious Sheen Investments Consulting Co., Ltd. (“Chuming”), which in turn owns 100% of the Chuming Operating Subsidiaries: the Meat Company, the Foods Company and the Sales Company. The business and operations of the Chuming Operating Subsidiaries now comprise the principal business and operations of our company.

In December 2007, Chuming completed a reverse-takeover transaction with a U.S. publicly reporting company, which resulted in our current corporate structure. Today, we are a U.S. public reporting company incorporated in the State of Nevada, and we own the Chuming Operating Subsidiaries that continue to operate in the city of Dalian, in the Liaoning Province of China. Our common stock is quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol “ENHD.OB.”

Concurrently with the closing of the reverse take-over transaction, on December 31, 2007 we closed our $17 million private placement financing involving the issuance of our common stock to 15 accredited investors. For an additional discussion of this financing, please refer to the section above entitled “Strategic Financing” on page 3 of this prospectus.

World Pork Market
 
According to an April 2007 report of the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), China is the largest pork producer and consumer in the world. China is the leading producer among other countries in the world by a wide margin, and produces and consumes more than half of the world’s pork. Preliminary numbers for 2006 worldwide production of pork was 99.0 million metric tons (MMT, carcass weight equivalent) and consumption was 98.1 MMT. The USDA forecast for 2007 is that both worldwide production and consumption are expected to expand by 4% over 2006 levels. According to the Ministry of Agriculture, China’s wholesale pork prices have increased by 19% during the first two months of 2007 as compared with the same period last year.

China’s Pork Industry
 
According to China’s National Bureau of Statistics, China’s US$176 billion animal husbandry sector is the second largest in the country’s basket of agricultural related industries including farming, forestry and fishery. The present size of the pork and processed meat market in China is an estimated US$32 billion.
 
A report from the China Meat Association Member’s Conference indicates that China’s per capita meat consumption was just over 55 kilograms by 2000, which is significantly smaller than the consumption level of over 100 kg per year by western standards. Taking into account Chinese culinary culture and habits, however, Chinese people are expected to consume more meat as their disposable income increases. For example, Hong Kong residents, who have a significantly higher per capita income, consumed on average 124 kg of meat in 2000.
 
The manner in which meat sales are conducted has changed as a result of new hygiene and food safety regulations that were introduced by the Chinese government in 1995. Historically, the great majority of meat sales in China had taken place in open-air markets or on streets, i.e. in free wet markets. These markets provided a location through which the consumer could buy live poultry or freshly slaughtered meat produced direct from local farmers. As a result of the new regulations however, governmental agencies recently have encouraged the replacement of open-air markets by supermarkets and convenience stores, and the market share of open-air markets has continued to decline.
 
The meat industry in China is characterized by fragmentation, sanitation and hygiene issues, as well as social demographic trends. Supply is extremely localized with limited distribution capability. China’s vast geography and ‘in-development’ transport infrastructure have made it difficult to create national or even regional level competition in the industry. Our management believes that the trend towards greater sales through formal supermarkets and chain stores, coupled with the expansion of our sales and distribution network, will continue to favorably impact our business. Additionally, the meat and meat processing industries in China are regarded by the central government as “key” industries and certain participants in the industry, including us, receive special tax incentives and technology subsidies.

Pork is China’s most important source of meat and is consumed at a much higher rate than other categories of meat. The following 2007 USDA Report shows that pork is consumed in China with five greater volume than poultry or “broiler meat” and almost seven times more than beef:

In addition to a greater general preference for pork, urbanization and rapid income growth are working in parallel to create more demand for pork and processed pork products. An emerging middle class of relatively high-income consumers is forming in certain Chinese cities. As household incomes rise, these high-income residents consume more of most foods on a per capita basis. According to the Urban Household Survey conducted in 2000 by China’s National Bureau of Statistics, pork consumption by low-income residents was 13.4 kg whereas it was 19.6 kg for high-income residents. These residents not only demand a greater quantity of food, but also higher quality (e.g. better cuts of meat, foods that are safer or healthier) and convenience (processed foods). Reports of food poisoning and dangerous chemical residues have given rise to strong demand for “green” foods for which we are certified. Affluent consumers are willing to pay premium prices for foods which have safety-related certifications, foods with purported health benefits or foods with other desirable attributes. We offer a wide range of food products that appeal to demands for safety, convenience, quality and health attributes demanded by high-income urban consumers.
 
Our management expects China’s meat industry to grow in line with China’s GDP growth and expects scaled meat processors to grow at significantly faster rates due to key driving forces including food safety concerns that will accelerate the transition from the traditional wet market to the modern dry market; rising modern retail channels; government mandates and supports of agricultural and meat processing companies; and consolidating forces.

·
Transitioning from “wet-market” to “dry-market” 

Food safety is the number one concern of Chinese consumers purchasing meat products and is a key driver in the modernization of China’s meat processing industry. Consumer surveys showed that food safety, nutritional value and taste are the top three concerns of consumers, while price was ranked fourth. Furthermore, surveys showed that 60% of the consumers have a low degree of confidence in meat products in general. There are a number of food safety concerns facing the Chinese pork industry, including swine streptococcus and Foot and Mouth Disease, the use of antibiotics and illegal feed additives such as Clenbutero, pork injected with water and illegal slaughterhouses. China’s meat industry traditionally has been dominated by small and family-operated butcher shops that would slaughter the livestock in the open-air marketplaces and without the necessary safety and sterilized equipment. These unsanitary operations create what is commonly known as the “wet market,” which currently represents 80% of the overall meat-processing sector. However, the industry is changing rapidly. Along with the prevalent use of refrigerators in urban households, health conscious consumers are demanding more sanitary quality meat products which can only be processed and delivered in a temperature controlled cold chain environment. This presents significant opportunities to meat processors with advanced processing plants and refrigerated transportation capabilities.
  
 
·
Government quality control 

Frequent occurrences of food safety scares have hastened the Chinese government’s effort in regulating food safety and quality. For example, in 2006 pork containing Clenbutero were found to be sold in several wet markets in Shanghai that resulted in over 330 people being poisoned, and an outbreak of swine Streptococcus in Sichuan Province led to the death of 17 people. A number of Chinese organizations are involved in an effort to bring the Chinese meat industry’s safety, hygiene and sanitation standards to an international level, including the Ministry of Agriculture, Ministry of Health, State Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection, and Quarantine, State Food and Drug Administration, and the Ministry of Commerce. It is believed by experts that the Chinese government hopes to change the ratio of wet markets to dry markets 20/80, with dry markets outnumbering wet markets, by 2010, instead of the current ratio of 80/20 wet to dry. Tougher quality standards set for the meat processing industry represent barriers to newcomers while forcing operationally inadequate and financially unsound companies to shut down. Our management anticipates that companies such as ours, with quality meat processing and modern logistics systems, will benefit as they capture market share and build consumer brand loyalty.

 
·
Government’s strong support of meat processing industry 

The main theme of China’s 11th Five Year Plan is the development of China’s rural economy. With the widening wealth gap between the rich and poor or between urban and rural regions, China’s central government has shifted its focus from urban industrial growth to rural agricultural development aimed at improving the standard of living in the poorer regions. Many preferential policies were enacted to help the farming communities including subsidized livestock insurance and interest free loans. Scaled meat processors are considered active agents in galvanizing the rural economies by providing jobs, injecting capital, and introducing new technology and management expertise to the local economies. Consequently, many qualified meat-processing companies are also incentivized by the Chinese government including VAT rebates and favorable tax incentives such as tax exemptions on upstream pork products.

·
National retailers provide platform for growth 

The increasingly widespread use of refrigerators in urban Chinese households has attracted many retailers to carry more frozen food products, making available a wide variety of frozen products to consumers. Major domestic retailers, including LianHua have made an impact in introducing more brands of frozen food products in their retail stores. Even more significantly going forward will be the rapid expansion of international hypermarkets in China, including France’s Carrefour, the U.S.’s Wal-mart, and Germany’s Metro. These retailers with national reach will significantly change the retail industry landscape as they provide the platform for the large branded food companies to efficiently and rapidly distribute their products to large and untapped markets. These international retail chains can also provide excellent export opportunities to scaled, quality meat processing companies.

 
·
Industry consolidation benefits scaled players 

In the more mature US meat market, the top three producers represent about 50% of the meat industry there. But in China the meat-processing industry is very fragmented with over 3,000 meat-processors most of which are small operators. The top three producers represent less than 5% of the overall market. Pig farms in China are also very fragmented with over 90% of the farms possessing fewer than 10 pigs. As smaller players experience pressure from margin compression and stricter government regulations, we believe scaled meat processors will make attractive acquisitions in order to capture market share, gain scale, secure raw material, and move closer to clients. The combination of stricter hygiene regulations, increasing competition from well-financed players, struggling meat suppliers, and increasing international competition from companies like Hormel will induce major industry shakeout and consolidation in the coming years.
 
Macro and Demographic Trends

The rapidly expanding middle-class in China has fueled the demand for meat products. China’s GDP has been growing at over 9% per year for the past 10 years and has created millions of new consumers whose buying trends fit well with our strategy.
 
 
·
Incomes in urban China increased by 10% in the first nine months of 2006. China’s middle class - citizens making at least 50,000 Yuan (US$6,250) - are expected to double by 2010 to 25% of the country’s population, fueling domestic consumption.

 
·
While overall income grew rapidly, urban per capita disposable income grew even faster at 39.6% between 2002 and 2005, compared to 34.7% for per capita rural income during the same period. Urban per capita consumption of meat is twice that of the national average.

 
·
Due to the increasing rural migration to urban cities, China expects to double its major cities by 2010 creating new waves of Chinese urban meat consumers. The number of Chinese cities with over 1 million people is projected to reach 125 by 2010 according to the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and cities with over 2 million people are projected to reach 300 by 2020.

 
·
Domestic demand for meat products in China is expected to grow to a projected 100 million metric tons in 2010 from an actual 72.4 million metric tons in 2004 according to Access Asia, an independent research firm. Total production value of meat products are expected to increase to a projected US$120 billion from an actual US$84 billion and per capita meat consumption is expected to increase from an actual 49 kg to a projected 75 kg during the same period. Pork represents the bulk of meat products consumed in China.
 
15


With higher standards of living and more a demanding working lifestyle, urban Chinese consumers are purchasing more processed meat products and spending more on dining on meat products outside of the home.
 
 
·
It is estimated that currently less than 10% of the meat consumed in China is processed. Meat consumption out of the home has surpassed in-home meat consumption in 11 Chinese provinces, especially in more economically developed regional markets such as Shanghai, Beijing, and Shenzhen, according to the National Bureau of Statistics.

 
·
Chinese consumers have become more conscious of food safety and quality, fueling demand for branded foods. This has become more evident after the occurrence of a series of disease outbreaks across Asia including SARS and the avian flu. With changing lifestyles and food quality awareness, Chinese consumers are seeking more name brands to ensure the quality in processed meat that they purchase.

 
·
The new health-conscious consumer group has become more educated and concerned with the freshness and nutritional value of various meat products. For example, LTMP (low temperature meat product) pork has become more popular recently as urban consumers become aware that LTMP has better nutritional value and fresher taste than the longer-shelf-life HTMP (high temperature meat product) pork products.
 
Processing of Meat Products in China
 
In the PRC, regulations relating to the processing of meat products are set forth in the PRC Law of Food Hygiene and the Administrative Measures for the Hygiene of Meat and Meat Products. A PRC food processing company is required to obtain a hygiene permit from the Hygiene Bureau of the relevant districts before it is permitted to apply to the Ministry of Industry and Commerce for a business license.
 
A food processing company may not purchase or use meat that has not been inspected and approved by the Animal Supervision Authority. Even if the meat has been so inspected, it must still satisfy other hygiene requirements. Each food processing company must have facilities to conduct regular laboratory testing of its products to ensure food safety requirements are met. For instance, sometimes traceable levels of contaminants and radioactive substances are found in meat products, and these must not exceed certain established national standards.
 
Food processing companies are required to possess hygienic cold storage facilities, and proper management of such cold storage facilities must be set out. All storage equipment and packing materials must also comply with hygienic standards. All meat products which are packed must be labeled, specifying requisite information such as name of the product, place of manufacture, manufacture date, lot number or code, final consumption date and ingredients. Any meat product to be exported shall be inspected by the Animal and Plant Quarantine Authority when passing through customs. Only meat products which have passed such inspections may be exported.
 
Business
 
We are principally engaged in the production, processing, sale and distribution of fresh and prepared meat products in China. Our products are classified as fresh and frozen pork, and prepared foods, which includes prepared pork, seafood and by-products.

Our production facilities are located in Dalian, a coastal city with a population of 3 million. Referred to as the “Boston of China” due to its Northeast proximity and port orientation, Dalian is the most affluent city in the Liaoning Province, with a population of 42 million. Dalian serves as a finance and export trade center of Northeast China, and is also the center of the “Buo Sea Economical Zone” (“BSEZ”). According to China’s National Bureau of Statistics, the BSEZ covers 12% of the territory and 20% of the population in China, and is the most important economic center in Northern China. The National Bureau of Statistics also projects that these two areas may generate a more rapid growth rate than the overall GDP growth of China in next 10 years. Our facilities include 5 production lines with the slaughtering capacity of 123,318 metric tons and prepared food capacity of 16,000 metric tons. Our prepared food facilities are the largest in Liaoning Province.
 
Our production lines are imported from international manufacturing automation leader Stork™ of the Netherlands, with the state-of-the-art technology and specialized for their in-process testing and quality controls. Our production facilities are certified under ISO9001 and HACCP. Our products are sold under the brand name of “Chuming™,” which is well recognized in our region as the organic premium quality alternative to low quality pork products. Our meat products are qualified “Green Food” by the National Green Food Development Center and qualified as one of 14 “National Safe Foods” by the National Slaughtering Authentication Center.
 
We distribute our products through dealers and agents to more than 100 supermarkets, including Carrefour, Wal-mart, Metro, New-mart, Hymall and others. We also distribute our products to over 500 schools, hospitals, factory canteens and restaurants, and more than 500 “Chuming” franchise stores or specialty counters in wet markets.
 
Our business activities are the slaughter, processing, packing and distribution of pork and seafood products for sale to clients throughout the PRC. We have a 250,000 square meter campus which houses an international standards-based meat processing plant located in the city of Dalian of the Liaoning Province in the PRC. We have a total of five production lines and an aggregate capacity to slaughter approximately 1.5 million pigs per year. We purchase hogs from more than 3,000 farms in the Liaoning Province and nearby areas, in addition to having an exclusive contract with farms owned and operated by Dalian Chuming Group Co., Ltd., to supply us with 600,000 live hogs in 2007, 750,000 in 2008, 800,000 in 2009, and 800,000 in 2010, at local market prices. Dalian Chuming Group Co., Ltd. provides breeding pigs, animal feed, vaccination, veterinary services and technology support to our subcontractor pig farmers, resulting in more favorable relations with these small independent suppliers.
 
Principal Products
 
We produce, distribute and sell fresh meat and prepared food products under the brand name “Chuming™,” through our dealership distribution network, our own sales force and franchise stores in the PRC.
 
We produce two main types of Processed Meat Products - High Temperature Meat Products (HTMP) and Low Temperature Meat Products (LTMP).
 
HTMP - HTMPs are cooked at a temperature of approximately 121°C and at approximately 2.5 times atmospheric pressure. These meat products can be stored at room temperature and have a shelf life of approximately six months from the date of production. However, the shelf life of these products is only 120 days from the date of production, and consumers prefer to purchase our products within a period of 120 days from the date of production.
 
17


HTMPs are generally priced lower than LTMP and do not require refrigeration. Therefore, they are affordable and accessible to the average PRC consumer.
 
LTMP - LTMPs are cooked at lower temperatures ranging from 65 to 85°C, under 1 atmospheric pressure. These meat products have a shelf life of three months from the date of production if they are stored at a temperature of 0°C.
 
In 2003, we introduced our LTMPs to the PRC market. The Chuming Group’s R&D studies have shown that LTMPs generally taste better than HTMPs because they are cooked at lower temperatures and thus are able to preserve the taste and nutrients found in the ingredients. The LTMPs generally cater to the taste of consumers in PRC cities who have higher purchasing power.
 
Currently, we have two main series of products for both HTMP and LTMP: the “Ham” series and the “Sausage” series. The Ham series has chunkier pieces of meat and thus has a meatier texture. It also has a corresponding higher percentage of meat content. The Sausage series has a lower percentage of meat content and has a smoother texture.
 
The range of products we offer includes more than 300 varieties of hams and sausages. The following is a summary of some of the types of Fresh and Processed Meat Products that we manufacture and how they are categorized:
 
Fresh Pork
 
Chinese people generally perceive that fresh meat retains a better flavor as compared with frozen meat. As such, the price of fresh pork meat is approximately 20% higher than frozen pork meat. The other producers of fresh pork meat in the PRC are generally farm-based suppliers, which supply the areas around the farms. The key difference between our fresh pork and that of farm-based suppliers is that our fresh pork is produced and packed in a highly controlled sanitized environment in our own facilities. Therefore, consumers have added assurance that our fresh pork meat is safe for consumption.
 
In order for the pork to remain fresh, at our facilities the pigs are slaughtered and then processed within 30 minutes. The meat is then cooled but not frozen at a temperature between 32° F (0° C) and 39.2° F (4° C) for about 20 hours. Following this cooling process, fresh pork is cut into various parts in a sterilized room with the constant temperature of 12° C. This reduces the risk of exposure to germs and bacterial contamination. Before delivery, the fresh pork is kept in our storage room at a controlled temperature of 0 to 4° C. The meat is stored in airtight freezers filled with ozone, which acts as a sterilizing agent, killing remaining germs and bacteria in the meat.
 
With our own temperature-controlled vans and trucks, we deliver the fresh pork to our customers including dealers, supermarkets and our franchise specialty stores. The entire process of cold production, cold storage and cold delivery is what we refer to as the “cold chain system.” This cold chain system ensures the freshness and quality of our product. Our fresh pork products have an average shelf life of 7 days.
 
Frozen Pork
 
In the production of Chuming’s frozen pork, the meat is frozen at -31° F (-35° C) to -40° F (-40° C) for 48 hours. It is then stored or transported at a constant temperature of between -0.4° F (-18° C) to -13° F (-25° C). Since frozen pork can be preserved for longer periods of time, our frozen meat products are ideal for distribution across longer distances to the Northeast and North China as well as potentially to international markets such as Korea, Russia and Japan. These products have an average shelf life of 180 days. We also sell our frozen pork to restaurants, supermarkets and fresh food markets.

Prepared Food Products
 
Our prepared food products include prepared pork, seafood and pig by-products, which accounted for 10% of our 2006 revenues.
 
Prepared Pork Products. Our prepared pork products are mainly LTMPs, which are cooked at lower temperatures ranging from 65° C to 85° C and under atmospheric pressure. These meat products generally have a shelf life of 30 days from the date of production if they are stored at a temperature ranging from 0° C to 4° C. For LTMPs, we currently have four series and more than 300 products. These foods are all made from the fresh pork that we produce.

Seafood Products.  Our prepared seafood products are made from fish, shrimp and other varieties of seafood. With our techniques of prepared food production, we prepare seafood products such as fish sausage and shellfish sausage. Seafood products have accounted for 5% of our revenue for the first six months of 2007. Due to the abundance of seafood in Dalian, located on the Northern coast of China, as well as relatively high profit margins for these products, we plan to expand our seafood output in the future. The following is a description of the varieties of seafood products we offer:

Pig By-Products. In China, virtually all parts of the pig are valued for consumption and are used in local cuisine. Pig “by-products” that are not typically used or sold in other parts of the world are prepared and sold in the Chinese market. This includes pig innards, pig skin, pig tails, lard and pig heads. Pig liver, stomach, intestine, head and hoofs are commonly used in Chinese cuisine and are sold to a ready market.
 
We produce our products through two of the Chuming Operating Subsidiaries: (i) Dalian Chuming Slaughter and Packaging Pork Company Ltd. in Wangfangdian, and (ii) Dalian Chuming Processed Foods Company Ltd. in Dalian.
 
Our fresh and frozen pork is produced by our subsidiary Dalian Chuming Slaughter and Packaging Pork Company Ltd. (“Meat Company”). Meat Company’s facilities cover 150,000 square meters and utilize state-of-art slaughtering and cutting lines imported from Stork Co. of the Netherlands. Meat Company has a slaughtering capacity of 250 pigs per hour, which is 1,500,000 pigs per year at full capacity. Our cutting line has a capacity of 30,132 metric tons per year. Our cold and freezing storage facilities can store up to 6,000 metric tons of fresh product. The fresh pork and frozen pork produced by Meat Company are typically sold either in whole carcass form or in cuts.
 
The prepared foods are produced by our subsidiary Dalian Chuming Processed Foods Company Ltd. (“Food Co.”), located in the Ganjingzi District of Dalian. Food Co., which includes a 10,000 square meter processing facility. There are three prepared food production lines including one pork processing line with the capacity of 10,000 metric tons, one seafood sausage production line with the capacity of 4,500 metric tons and one deli by-product production line with the capacity of 1,500 metric tons. All of Food Co.’s production line equipment is imported from Germany and features state-of-the-art technology. Food Co. is now the largest prepared food production plant in Liaoning Province.

Supply of Pigs
 
We do not rear pigs, but instead purchase them from our former parent company, Dalian Chuming Group Co., Ltd., and from other suppliers who aggregate supply from local pig farms. We purchase live pigs from Dalian Chuming Group Co., Ltd. and third party suppliers on a cash-on-delivery basis.  While Dalian Chuming Group Co., Ltd.’s breeding operations are well developed and large scale, most of the pig farming in the PRC is generally not well commercialized. Our third party suppliers aggregate supplies from hundreds of small pig farms, which are typically operated by independent family-owned farms. One advantage of decentralized supply is that we obtain competitive market pricing for our supply of pigs. Another advantage is that any outbreak of livestock disease is likely to be confined to a one or more of these farms and would not affect our entire supply.
 
Our pig suppliers supply us with regular quantities of pigs per based on the current prevailing market price of pigs on the day of delivery. We typically order a certain number of pigs per day from each of the farms that supply us pigs. For instance, if we expect to order 80,000 pigs per annum from a supplier, that supplier will supply somewhere between 240 and 260 pigs per day.
 
In order to ensure a consistent supply of fresh pork to our customers, we have made agreements with approximately 6,000 pig farms in the Dalian area to purchase pigs on demand from them at a fixed premium over market price. This is to supplement our usual supply of live pigs. These pig farms have agreed to guarantee us a supply of approximately 400,000 pigs in 2007. Our suppliers have an aggregate capacity to supply us with approximately 1,100 pigs per day. The price per pig is at a fixed premium of RMB 1.25 per kg over the usual market price for live pigs.
 
Although we incur additional costs on the sale of freshly kept pork meat supplied from such guaranteed sources due to the higher cost of the pigs supplied under these terms, our management believes that the benefits of this strategy outweigh the costs because of the goodwill that results from providing a stable, reliable supply of fresh pork to our customers.
 
Under our Long-Term Hog Procurement Agreement between Dalian Chuming Group Co., Ltd. and Dalian Chuming Slaughter and Packaging Pork Company, Ltd., Dalian Chuming Group Co., Ltd. agreed to supply no less than 750,000 live hogs to us in 2008, 800,000 in 2009, and 800,000 in 2010, and the price for the hogs is set at the fair market price at the time of delivery.
 
Due to a severe supply shortage of hogs in 2007, we processed approximately 608,000 pigs through September 30, which is 42,000 short of our 650,000 third quarter year-to-date target set up earlier this year.
 
Our breeding programs with farmers are backed by the local government. After a careful selection process, every sub-contracting breeder must have a pig farmer provide a guarantee of supply, who must be responsible for making up any differences between the agreed amount and actual number of pigs supplied to us. This program has been in existence since 1998, and has been very successful so far with the farmers.
 
Among our suppliers, Zheng Baojiang, Wang Fujie, Zhang Jihuan, Sun Siyuan, and Ge Hongqi are the most successful pig farmers in our supply chain, and they supplied an aggregate of 12,000, 10,000, 8,000, 8,000 and 6,000 hogs respectively through each of the first six months of 2007, contributing to 4.4% of our total supply.
 
In addition to the quality of our suppliers’ stock, and their health and safety controls, we have a quality control system of our own to ensure that pigs supplied to us are healthy and fit for human consumption. We require that pigs supplied to us be accompanied by required health certificates, and each must weigh at least between 90kg and 100kg. If the pigs meet the above criteria, we are then obligated to accept delivery of the pigs. (A pig that weighs between 90 and 100 kg, has more saleable meat per kilogram. If it is below this weight range, the ratio of meat to innards would be lower, resulting in less saleable meat per kilogram).

Customers and Distribution Methods of the Products
 
Customers
 
We have three primary types of customers for our products, which are (1) city and town households, (2) canteens and restaurants, and (3) food processing companies.
 
Chinese households prefer fresh pork to frozen pork. Consumers typically buy fresh pork in small quantities, in frequent visits to to markets where it is sold. Households usually choose the supermarkets, the wet market, or Chuming™ franchise stores to buy the fresh pork based on convenience. This type of customer accounted for 90% of our revenues in 2006.
 
Canteens include the cafeterias of government agencies, schools, factories and hospitals. These customers, including restaurants, often purchase our pork from Chuming™ franchise stores or directly from agents or wholesalers of the company. This customer segment accounted for 4% of our revenues in 2006.
 
In addition to the above two types of customers, we also provides several prestigious and high-visibility branded food processing companies with fresh and frozen pork. However, this customer segment accounted for less than 5% of our revenue in 2006. Since our sourced pigs are of good breed and have strict quality control in the production process, these food processors regularly rely on our pork as an ingredient in their products. Our clients in this segment include Taiwan Dachan, the largest feed supplier and food processor in Taiwan. These food processing companies typically get access to our products from Chuming agents or wholesalers.
 
Our largest customer accounted for approximately 19% and 26% respectively of our total turnover for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2006. Our top five customers accounted for approximately 61% and 71% of our total turnover for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2006, respectively. None of the directors, their associates or any shareholder of Chuming has any interest in any of our five largest customers.
 
Distribution Network
 
Our distribution network is organized and divided by geographic markets and sales regions, including: Dalian Metropolitan, Eastern Liaoning, Western Liaoning, Jilin, Heilongjiang and Hebei markets. In each market, we have a team led by a sales officer whose objective is to expand the Chuming sales network by developing potential dealers, agents and wholesalers, and maintaining the existing network by assisting our sellers. Our Sales Company works with dealers, agents and wholesalers, who then submit orders directly to us.

To differentiate ourselves, we have a unique retail strategy to complement our wholesale operations.
 
“Showcase stores” are owned and operated by independent operators. These specialty boutique-type stores must have the same design and physical layout and must follow our operating methodologies. These storefronts are highly visible with the Chuming™ brand name. We also set merchandising and pricing policies and all employees must undergo a mandatory training program. There are currently over 500 such boutique stores in Liaoning Province, providing high brand recognition and communicating a message of quality that will benefit all channels. These boutique stores target the new middle class that desire and can afford high quality goods and services. They provide particular convenience to a typical busy two-income, middle-class family which shops frequently after work. Most of these boutique shops are located in Dalian and the major cities of Liaoning Province. Each store has a minimum monthly sales requirement depending on the city and store.
 
Dealers, agents and wholesalers who we work with serve their own diverse distribution channels. Our affiliated dealers organize their sales to stores and supermarkets, such as Carrefour, Wal-mart, Hymall, New-mart and Metro. Our affiliated agents assist in identifying locations and opening Chuming™ franchise stores in their region, important to the expanding our revenues. Our affiliated wholesalers typically organize the sales to canteens and restaurants as well as food processing companies. In some regions, our affiliated agents will also directly contact local canteens and restaurants.

Chuming’s Distribution Network
 
Energroup Holdings Logo
 
We have our Chuming™ branded counters in large stores and supermarkets, which are the most important and highly visible locations to enhance our brand and image. Since large supermarkets such as Carrefour and Wal-mart have strict requirements to approve any suppliers, having Chuming™ counters in these megaretailers’ flagship stores reinforces the consumer confidence in our products. We have Chuming™ counters in more than 100 large supermarkets located in Northeast China and the Hebei Province.
  
Our most popular product, fresh pork, is sold primarily though our Chuming™ franchise stores. Chuming™ franchise stores are usually located in high-density, urban residential areas easily accessible by our customers. The Chuming™ franchise stores also save time compared to long lines sometimes found at large supermarkets. Chuming™ franchise stores are all equipped with refrigerators to keep the pork fresh. We have established more than 500 Chuming™ franchise stores now operating in Dalian and throughout the Liaoning Province. In the next few years, we aim to increase the number of our Chuming™ branded franchise stores to more than 1,000 outlets.

Delivery
 
In China, one of the main obstacles to expanding market share and developing national brands has been logistical management during processing. We address this issue by equipping our processing plant with modern technologically advanced, state-of-the art equipment and production lines. Our advanced logistical infrastructure includes the use of bar coding and electronic interchange to enhance the speed and accuracy of data flow. Over the years, we have built an extensive logistical system that includes 21 contracted refrigerated container trucks that allow us to better preserve the meat and to expand our market scope by delivering food to farther retail points. As a result, we have been able to make deliveries within a 500km radius of our Dalian processing plant. Furthermore, our modern information technology system adds additional competitive advantage as it provides us real time market and production data which in turn enables us to capitalize on the timely information regarding market pricing, inventory levels, and changes in demand.
 
After orders are gathered and processed at the Sales Company, our products are delivered utilizing our transportation fleet and through pick-up by certain accounts at our facilities. The quality of our fresh pork is highly dependent on the storage room and delivery vehicles once they leave the chill room. We currently have 21 temperature-controlled vehicles in operation which help guarantee the freshness of pork at the point of delivery to customer locations in our primary market which is within a two-hour radius of Dalian.
 
Quality Control
 
We maintain all required licenses and certificates from the relevant central and local government authorities with regard to our pork production business. In 2005, we were awarded ISO 9001:2000 certification that covers our production, research and development and sales activities. ISO 9001 certification indicates that our abattoirs and pork production operations comply with international standards of quality assurance established by the International Standards Organization. All of Chuming’s production lines have also passed the Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) test, which is certified by Moody International Certification Ltd.
 
We currently have 78 Quality Control (QC) personnel who run and refine our quality assurance system. This system is divided into two sections: Meat Production Supervision and Processed Meat Supervision. The 78 employees who work in our quality assurance program consist of 33 quality control engineers, and 45 staff. All members of the QC team are trained technicians with qualifications and experience in animal husbandry, quarantines and veterinary medicine. The quality control laboratory meets and exceeds all standards set by the authorities and relevant agencies in the PRC.
 
In addition, on average 11 government inspectors work in our slaughtering and packaging plant every shift. They examine animals before slaughter, supervise sanitation, inspect carcasses and internal organs for diseases during the slaughtering and processing procedures, and then certify carcasses and packaged products as to consumer readiness.
 
As discussed in the above section regarding our principal products, the pork products produced from freshly slaughtered pigs at our facilities are frozen after slaughtering to prevent deterioration of the meat caused by bacteria or chemical changes. The chilled and frozen pork are maintained within the requisite temperature ranges, during subsequent handling, transportation and distribution to retain freshness and to prevent deterioration of the meat.
 
25


Competition
 
We are currently the second largest producer in the three northeast provinces of Jilin, Liaoning and Hei Longjiang. According to management’s estimates, in Liaoning Province, we are the market leader for both fresh pork with 8.4% market share and for meat products with a 2.6% market share. Management estimates that in Dalian, we are the market leader for fresh pork with a 50% market share, and shares the lead position for meat products with a 20% market share. As we expand geographically, we expect to encounter additional regional and local competitors. Our management believes that all food segments in China compete on the basis of price, product quality, brand identification and customer service, and that we are well positioned in all of these areas.
 
Major Domestic Competitors
 
Currently, our primary competition comes from the domestic players that operate in a very fragmented industry environment. Presently, there is no clear leadership in the PRC pork industry. The top three players, Shuanghui, People’s Food and China Yurun, together capture less than 5% of the market. Most of the companies in the industry tend to focus on different product and market segments. Shuanghui has the largest market share in the HTMP pork segment, while Yurun is the leader in the LTMP space. Both companies have done well in the top tier markets. People’s Food, on the hand, tends to focus more of its distribution effort in the lower tier cities, where distribution is more challenging, and typically does not sell through large retail channels. On the other hand, about 40% of China Yurun’s sales are through supermarket and hypermarket chains. In terms of geographical focus, we believe People’s Food has a strong presence in Northeastern China, and China Yurun has announced plans to expand into the Northeast with plans for two new plants in Shenyang and Harbin.
 
New International Entrants
 
After China joined the WTO, many domestic industries were opened to international competition, including the meat-processing industry. Foreign companies have already entered China’s major cities, mainly though the major hypermarkets such as Carrefour. So far, domestic players have an advantage in the introduction of new products based on local tastes and distribution in below Super-tier cities. For example, Tyson Foods, Inc., U.S.A. has a joint venture with Shanghai Ocean Wealth Fish Products Corporation Limited. Hormel Foods Corporation, U.S.A., has set up representative offices in China in 1995 and currently operates processing factories in Shanghai and Beijing.

Advertising and Promotional Activities
 
Approximately US $75,000, US $100,000, US $150,000 and US $2,659,963 were spent respectively in the fiscal years ended 2004, 2005 and 2006 and nine months ended September 30, 2007 on advertising and promotional activities.
 
27


Advertisements are principally for Processed Meat Products and Fresh Pork and are targeted at consumers in the Northeast PRC. We advertise periodically in the local media to create and maintain public awareness of our products and branding. We increase the frequency of advertisements whenever new products are launched.
 
Intellectual Property Rights
 
Through our advertising efforts and the consistent quality of its products, our management believes that consumers in the PRC have come to associate our “Chuming™” brand name with quality meat products. Thus, our management believes that the goodwill in the “Chuming™” branding is a valuable asset to us. We have registered our “Chuming™” trademark in the PRC. We have also applied for trademark registration for our “Huayu” brand name in the PRC.
 
We believe that the protection of our brand names is important to our marketing efforts and believes that we have taken appropriate steps to protect our brand. We have not discovered any counterfeiting or any infringements of our Chuming™ or Huayu brand names during the three years prior to the date of this prospectus.
 
Research and Development
 
We have two operations, a Meat Engineering Center and a Sea Products Center, focused on the development of new products to the market. In addition to meeting the taste demands of consumers, these groups focus on quality, nutrition and safety standards. These groups draw upon a 25-employee research and development staff, including three professors in the field of animal nutrition and biology, supporting the safe and rapid introduction to the market of new products, specifically in the areas of seafood and meat by-products. We currently have more than 100 products available to consumers, with the average rate of three new products ready for the market per month. We are also working on anti-freezing experiments to facilitate preservation of our meats so as to minimize or eliminate the use of chemical preservatives.
 
Government Approval and Regulation of Principal Products
 
The Chinese government is actively promulgating a plan for “safe meat” and is expected to raise the proportion of slaughtering automation to over seventy percent of all meat and actively enforce authorized slaughtering and quarantine. Special grants, subsidized financing, preferential tax policies, governmental funding and other subsidies are provided to enterprises in order to acquire state of the art technology and equipment in meat processing. Such government incentives provide competitive advantages and opportunities to well-performing companies like us because such policies work to raise the bar for entering the industry and to eliminate inefficient companies in the industry. We expect such government support for the processing of agricultural products to continue for a number of years in the foreseeable future. Whether we can continue to benefit from such government programs in the next few years depends on how the government administers its incentive programs and how well we perform. If we maintain our current level of performance, it is possible that we may obtain further government support through such incentive programs. 

Compliance with Environmental Laws
 
We own two wastewater treatment plants on premise with a daily treating capacity of six hundred tons for each plant. Those plants were designed to comply with the Integrated Wastewater Discharge Standard of the PRC and the Environmental Protection Regulation of Dalian City. To the knowledge of our management, we have not breached any environment protection regulations during any of the past three years.

We and our predecessor companies have experienced excellent employee retention, which we believe is a result of our consistently-applied management policies and proactive employee benefit program participation. The average tenure is four years for factory workers and twelve years for management staff. All employees have health insurance, unemployment insurance and retirement benefits that are provided by the government. We make regular payments into these government-sponsored health insurance and retirement programs for each employee. Additionally, we provide free meals and accommodations to all employees on shift.
 
Certain of our employees are represented by a labor union which is governed by PRC Company and Labor Laws. There have been no adverse labor incidents or work stoppages in our history or our predecessor companies. Management believes that our relationship with our employees and the union are good.

Our main facility and principal executive offices are located at No. 9, Xin Yi Street, Ganjingzi District, Dalian City, Liaoning Province, PRC 116039, which also serves as the headquarters for our food subsidiary and sales subsidiary. Our main facility is located on 95 acres in the industrial area of Dalian, where we have developed over 74,000 sq. meters of factory floor. In addition to our corporate offices, we also own and maintain housing for up to 760 employees, and health maintenance facilities. Our slaughtering subsidiary’s principal facility is located at No.2026, Zhuanshi Street, Wafangdian Town, Dalian City, Liaoning Province, PRC. We believe that these facilities will be sufficient to house our operations for at least the next 3 years, and we have the capacity to accommodate our projected long-term growth plans.

Land Lease on Main Facility and Other Company Offices
 
We have acquired the land use certificate for all 95 acres of land, which entitles us to use and dispose of the land, and permits our use of the commercial or residential buildings on the land. We have also opened offices in eleven cities other than Dalian. We have entered leasing agreements for those office spaces for periods of between one and three years. We have agreed to pay RMB1.2 million per year for 50 years for the land. Our average office lease is for RMB240 per square meter per year.
 
Real Property Rights
 
We have rights to use and occupy two parcels of state-owned land, which are 106,466 square meters and 48,461 square meters in area, respectively, on which our operations are located. These land use rights are granted to us under two certificates dated March 3, 2003, granted by the Government of the Ganjingzi District of Dalian: (i) Gan Guo Yong [2003] No. 04010 for Site Number 4-17-03-09 (106,466 square meters), and (ii) Gan Guo Yong [2003] No. 04009 for Site Number 4-17-03-10 (48,461 square meters). These land use rights entitle us to use this land for a period of fifty years (until March 20, 2053) for industrial purposes.
 
We pledged our land use rights in the second parcel above (Gan Guo Yong [2003] No. 04009 for Site Number 4-17-03-10) to the Bank of China, Liaoning Province Branch, and the pledge has a term from December 14, 2006 to December 13, 2011.
Our plant, warehouse and office building have all been completed, and we are in the process of filing the proper documentation with the local PRC government to bring these properties into operation.

RISK FACTORS

You should carefully consider the risks described below together with all of the other information included in this prospectus before making an investment decision with regard to our securities. The statements contained in or incorporated into this prospectus that are not historic facts are forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in or implied by forward-looking statements. If any of the following risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be harmed. In that case, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.

Risks Relating to Our Business
 
Our limited operating history makes it difficult to evaluate our future prospects and results of operations.
 
We have a limited operating history. Our holding company, Chuming, was incorporated in 2004, and the companies that form its present subsidiaries were incorporated in 2003 - 2004. Accordingly, you should consider our future prospects in light of the risks and uncertainties experienced by early stage companies in evolving industries such as the meat industry in China. Some of these risks and uncertainties relate to our ability to:
 
·
maintain our market position in the meat business in China;
 
·
offer new and innovative products to attract and retain a larger customer base;
 
·
attract additional customers and increase spending per customer;
 
·
increase awareness of our brand and continue to develop user and customer loyalty;
 
·
respond to competitive market conditions;
 
·
respond to changes in our regulatory environment;
 
·
manage risks associated with intellectual property rights;
 
·
maintain effective control of our costs and expenses;
 
·
raise sufficient capital to sustain and expand our business;
 
·
attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel; and
 
·
upgrade our technology to support additional research and development.
 
If we are unsuccessful in addressing any of these risks and uncertainties, our business may be materially and adversely affected.

31

 
If there are any interruptions to or decline in the amount or quality of our live pigs, raw pork or other major raw material supply, our business could be materially and adversely affected.
 
Live pigs and raw pork are the principal raw materials used in our production. We procure all of our live pigs from a related party as well as a number of third party suppliers. Our third party suppliers may not continue to be able to supply an adequate number of live pigs to satisfy our present and future production needs. The supply of pigs is dependent on the output of pig farms, which may be affected by outbreaks of diseases or epidemics. Our current suppliers may not be able to provide live pigs of sufficient quality to meet our stringent quality control requirements. Any interruptions to or decline in the amount or quality of our live pig supply could materially disrupt our production and adversely affect our business. In addition to live pigs, we also use additives and packaging in our production, which we source from third party suppliers. Any interruptions to or decline in the amount or quality of our additives or packaging supply, could also disrupt our production or sales and adversely affect our business.
 
We are vulnerable to further increases in the price of raw materials (particularly of live pigs) and other operating costs, and we may not be able to entirely offset these increasing costs by increasing the prices of our products, particularly our processed meat products.
 
We purchase agricultural products, such as live pigs, for use in our production process and for resale. The price of such raw materials is subject to fluctuations that are attributable to a number of factors, such as the price of animal feed, diseases and infections, and weather conditions. During 2007, prices of live pigs rose sharply. If the costs of raw materials or other costs of production and distribution of our products increase further, and we are unable to entirely offset these increases by raising prices of our products, our profit margins and financial condition could be adversely affected.
 
We may be unable to anticipate changes in consumer preferences for processed meat products, which may result in decreased demand for our products.
 
Our continued success in the processed meat products market is in large part dependent on our ability to anticipate and develop products that appeal to the changing tastes, dietary habits and preferences of customers. If we are not able to anticipate and identify new consumer trends and develop new products accordingly, demand for our products may decline and our operating results may be adversely affected. In addition, we may incur significant costs relating to developing and marketing new products or expanding our existing product offerings in reaction to what we perceive to be a consumer preference or demand. Such development or marketing may not result in the level of market acceptance, volume of sales or profitability anticipated.
 
If the chilled and frozen pork market in China does not grow as we expect, our results of operations and financial conditions may be adversely affected.
 
We believe chilled and frozen pork products have strong growth potential in China and, accordingly, our sales of chilled and frozen pork have continually increased. Since inception, revenue attributable to our chilled and frozen pork products as a percentage of our total revenue has increased. If the chilled and frozen pork market in China does not grow as we expect, our business may be harmed, we may need to adjust our growth strategy and our results of operation may be adversely affected.

32

 
We require various licenses and permits to operate our business, and the loss of or failure to renew any or all of these licenses and permits could materially adversely affect our business.
 
In accordance with PRC laws and regulations, we are required to maintain various licenses and permits in order to operate our business, including, without limitation, a slaughtering permit in respect of each of our chilled and frozen pork production facilities and a permit for production of industrial products in respect of each of our processed meat production facilities. We are required to comply with applicable hygiene and food safety standards in relation to our production processes. Our premises and transportation vehicles are subject to regular inspections by the regulatory authorities for compliance with applicable regulations. Failure to pass these inspections, or the loss of or failure to renew our licenses and permits, could require us to temporarily or permanently suspend some or all of our production or distribution operations, which could disrupt our operations and adversely affect our business.
 
We are highly dependent on senior management and key research and development personnel.
 
We are highly dependent on our senior management to manage our business and operations and our key research and development personnel for the development of new processing methods and technologies, food products and the enhancement of our existing products. In particular, we rely substantially on our chairman and chief executive officer, Mr. Shi Huashan, to manage our operations. We also depend on our key research personnel. In addition, we also rely on information technology and logistics personnel for the production, storage and shipment of our products and on marketing and sales personnel, engineers and other personnel with technical and industry knowledge to transport, market and sell our products. We do not maintain key man life insurance on any of our senior management or key personnel. The departure of any one of them, in particular Mr. Shi, would have a material adverse effect on our business and operations. Competition for senior management and research and development personnel is intense and the pool of suitable candidates is limited. We may be unable to locate a suitable replacement for any senior management or key research and development personnel that we lose. In addition, if any member of our senior management or key research and development personnel joins a competitor or forms a competing company, they may compete with us for customers, business partners and other key professionals and staff members of our company.

We compete for qualified personnel with other food processing companies, food retailers, logistics companies and research institutions. Intense competition for these personnel could cause our compensation costs to increase significantly, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations. Our future success and ability to grow our business will depend in part on the continued service of these individuals and our ability to identify, hire and retain additional qualified personnel. If we are unable to attract and retain qualified employees, we may be unable to meet our business and financial goals.
 
Our growth strategy may prove to be disruptive and divert management resources.
 
Our growth strategy may involve large transactions and present financial, managerial and operational challenges, including diversion of management attention from existing businesses, difficulty with integrating personnel and financial and other systems, increased expenses, including compensation expenses resulting from newly-hired employees, assumption of unknown liabilities and potential disputes. We could also experience financial or other setbacks if any of our growth strategies incur problems of which we are not presently aware. We may require additional financing in the future.

33

 
We may need to obtain additional debt or equity to fund future capital expenditures. Additional equity may result in dilution to the holders of our outstanding shares of capital stock. Additional debt financing may include conditions that would restrict our freedom to operate our business, such as conditions that:
 
 
·
limit our ability to pay dividends or require us to seek consent for the payment of dividends;

 
·
increase our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions;

 
·
require us to dedicate a portion of our cash flow from operations to payments on our debt, thereby reducing the availability of our cash flow to fund capital expenditures, working capital and other general corporate purposes; and

 
·
limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and our industry.
 
We cannot guarantee that we will be able to obtain any additional financing on terms that are acceptable to us, or at all.
 
Our operations are cash intensive and our business could be adversely affected if we fail to maintain sufficient levels of working capital.
 
We expend a significant amount of cash in our operations, principally to fund our raw material procurement. Our suppliers, in particular, third party suppliers of pigs, typically require payment in full within seven days after delivery, although some of our suppliers provide us with credit. In turn, we typically require our customers of chilled and frozen pork to make payment in full on delivery, although we offer some of our long-standing customers credit terms. We generally fund most of our working capital requirements out of cash flow generated from operations. If we fail to generate sufficient revenues from our sales, or if we experience difficulties collecting our accounts receivables, we may not have sufficient cash flow to fund our operating costs and our business could be adversely affected.
 
We may be unable to maintain our profitability in the face of a consolidating retail environment in China.
 
We sell substantial amounts of our products to supermarkets and large retailers. The supermarket and food retail industry in China has been, and is expected to continue, undergoing a trend of development and consolidation. As the food retail trade continues to consolidate and our retail customers grow larger and become more sophisticated, they may demand lower pricing and increased promotional programs. Furthermore, larger customers may be better able to operate on reduced inventories and potentially develop or increase their focus on private label products. If we fail to maintain a good relationship with our large retail customers, or fail to maintain a wide offering of quality products, or if we lower our prices or increase promotional support of our products in response to pressure from our customers and are unable to increase the volume of our products sold, our profitability could decline.
 
Our operating results may fluctuate from period to period and if we fail to meet market expectations for a particular period, our share price may decline.
 
Our operating results have fluctuated from period to period and are likely to continue to fluctuate as a result of a wide range of factors, including seasonal variations in live pig supply and processed meat products consumption. Our production and sales of chilled and frozen pork are generally lower in the summer, due to lower supply of live pigs. Interim reports may not be indicative of our performance for the year or our future performance, and period-to-period comparisons may not be meaningful due to a number of reasons beyond our control. We cannot assure you that our operating results will meet the expectations of market analysts or our investors. If we fail to meet their expectations, there may be a decline in our share price.

34


We derive all of our revenues from sales in China and any downturn in the Chinese economy could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.
 
All of our current revenues are generated from sales in China. We anticipate that revenues from sales of our products in China will continue to represent a substantial proportion of our total revenues in the near future. Any significant decline in the condition of the PRC economy could, among other things, adversely affect consumer buying power and discourage consumption of our products, which in turn would have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.

We rely on our exclusive network of showcase stores, network stores and supermarket brand counters for the success of our sales and our brand image, and should they perform poorly, our business and brand image could be materially and adversely affected.
 
In addition to our sales to wholesale customers, we sell our products through showcase stores, network stores and supermarket brand counters. All of these retail based stores exclusively sell our pork products and display the Chuming logo on our store facades. For the first half of 2007, these retail outlets accounted for approximately 43% of our total revenue. If the sales performance of our retail based stores deteriorates, this could adversely affect the financial results of the company. In addition, any sanitation, hygiene, or food quality problems that might arise from the retail based stores could adversely affect our brand image and lead to a loss of sales. Chuming does not own any of the retail based stores.
 
We rely on the performance of our wholesaler, retailer and mass merchant customers for the success of our sales, and should they perform poorly or give priority to our competitors’ products, our business could be materially and adversely affected.
 
In addition to our retail sales channel, we sell our products to supermarkets and large retailers, which in turn sell the products to end consumers. If the sales performance of our wholesale customers deteriorates, this could adversely affect our sales. Furthermore, our wholesale customers also carry products which directly compete with our products for retail space and consumer purchases. There is a risk that our wholesale customers may give higher priority to products of, or form alliances with, our competitors. If our wholesale customers do not continue to purchase our products, or provide our products with similar levels of promotional support, our sales performance and brand imaging could be adversely affected.
 
The loss of any of our significant customers could have an adverse effect on our business.
 
Our key customers are principally supermarkets and large retailers in the PRC. We have not entered into long-term supply contracts with any of these major customers. Therefore, there can be no assurance that we will maintain or improve the relationships with these customers, or that we will be able to continue to supply these customers at current levels or at all. If we cannot maintain long-term relationships with our major customers, the loss of a significant portion of our sales to them could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

35


Recent regulatory enforcement crackdowns on food processing companies in the PRC could adversely affect our businesses.
 
Recently, the PRC government authorities have taken certain measures to maintain the PRC food market in good order and to improve the integrity of the PRC food industry, such as enforcing full compliance with industry standards and closing certain food processing companies in the PRC that did not meet regulatory standards. We cannot assure you that our businesses and operations will not be affected as a result of the deteriorating reputation of the food industry in the PRC due to recent scandals regarding food products.
 
Environmental regulations and related litigation could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.
 
Our operations and properties are subject to extensive and increasingly stringent laws and regulations pertaining to, among other things, the discharge of materials into the environment and the handling and disposition of wastes (including solid and hazardous wastes) or otherwise relating to protection of the environment. Failure to comply with any laws and regulations and future changes to them may result in significant consequences to us, including civil and criminal penalties, liability for damages and negative publicity.
 
We have incurred, and will continue to incur, significant capital and operating expenditures to comply with these laws and regulations. W e cannot assure you that additional environmental issues will not require currently unanticipated investigations, assessments or expenditures, or that requirements applicable to us will not be altered in ways that will require us to incur significant additional costs.
 
Deterioration of our perishable products may occur due to delivery delays, malfunctioning of freezer facilities or poor handling during transportation, which could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.
 
The condition of our food products (being perishable goods) may deteriorate due to shipment or delivery delays, malfunctioning of freezer facilities or poor handling during delivery by shippers or intermediaries. We are not aware of any instances whereby we were made to compensate for delivery delays, malfunctioning of freezer facilities or poor handling during transportation. However, there is no assurance that such incidents will not occur in the future. In the event of any delivery delays, malfunctioning of freezer facilities or poor handling during transportation, we may have to make compensation payments and our reputation, business goodwill and revenue will be adversely affected.
 
Unexpected business interruptions could adversely affect our business.
 
Our operations are vulnerable to interruption by fire, power failure and power shortages, floods, computer viruses and other events beyond our control. In particular, China, especially eastern and southern China, is experiencing frequent electricity shortages. In addition, we do not carry business interruption insurance to compensate us for losses that may occur as a result of these kinds of events and any such losses or damages incurred by us could disrupt our production and other operations.

If we fail to develop and maintain an effective system of internal controls, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud; as a result, current and potential shareholders could lose confidence in our financial reports, which could harm our business and the trading price of our common stock.
 
Effective internal controls are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and effectively prevent fraud. Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires us to evaluate and report on our internal controls over financial reporting and have our independent registered public accounting firm annually attest to our evaluation, as well as issue their own opinion on our internal controls over financial reporting, beginning with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007. We plan to prepare for compliance with Section 404 by strengthening, assessing and testing our system of internal controls to provide the basis for our report. The process of strengthening our internal controls and complying with Section 404 is expensive and time consuming, and requires significant management attention, especially given that we have not yet undertaken any efforts to comply with the requirements of Section 404. We cannot be certain that the measures we will undertake will ensure that we will maintain adequate controls over our financial processes and reporting in the future. Furthermore, if we are able to rapidly grow our business, the internal controls that we will need will become more complex, and significantly more resources will be required to ensure our internal controls remain effective. Failure to implement required controls, or difficulties encountered in their implementation, could harm our operating results or cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations. If we or our auditors discover a material weakness in our internal controls, the disclosure of that fact, even if the weakness is quickly remedied, could diminish investors’ confidence in our financial statements and harm our stock price. In addition, non-compliance with Section 404 could subject us to a variety of administrative sanctions, including the suspension of trading, ineligibility for listing on one of the Nasdaq Stock Markets or national securities exchanges, and the inability of registered broker-dealers to make a market in our common stock, which would further reduce our stock price.
 
36

 
We will incur increased costs as a public company which may affect our profitability and an active trading market.
 
As a public company, Chuming will incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses that it did not incur as a private company. We are now subject to the SEC’s rules and regulations relating to public disclosure. SEC disclosures generally involve a substantial expenditure of financial resources. In addition, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as well as new rules subsequently implemented by the SEC, have required changes in corporate governance practices of public companies. We expect that full compliance with these new rules and regulations will significantly increase our legal and financial compliance costs and make some activities more time-consuming and costly. For example, we will be required to create additional board committees and adopt policies regarding internal controls and disclosure controls and procedures. Such additional reporting and compliance costs may negatively impact our financial results. To the extent our earnings suffer as a result of the financial impact of our SEC reporting or compliance costs, our ability to develop an active trading market for our securities could be harmed.
 
We have limited business insurance coverage.
 
The insurance industry in China is still at an early stage of development. Insurance companies in China offer limited business insurance products. We do not have any business liability or disruption insurance coverage for our operations in China. Any business disruption, litigation or natural disaster may result in our incurring substantial costs and the diversion of our resources. In addition, since  our business operations are based outside of the U.S. (although we are a Nevada corporation quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board in the U.S.), directors and officers insurance may not be readily available to us at the prices and on terms acceptable to us. If we are not able to secure satisfactory D & O insurance coverage, we may not be able to attract the most qualified directors and officers, and our business could be indirectly adversely affected.
 
Risks Relating To Our Industry
 
The pig slaughtering and processed meat industries in China are subject to extensive government regulation, which is in the process of change and development.
 
The pig slaughtering and processed meat industries in China are heavily regulated by a number of governmental agencies, including primarily the Ministry of Agriculture, the Ministry of Commerce, the Ministry of Health, the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine and the State Environmental Protection Administration. These regulatory bodies have broad discretion and authority to regulate many aspects of the pig slaughtering and processed meat industries in China, including, without limitation, setting hygiene standards for production and quality standards for processed meat products. In addition, the pig slaughtering and processed meat products regulatory framework in China is still in the process of being developed. If the relevant regulatory authorities set standards with which we are unable to comply or which increase our production costs and hence our prices so as to render our products non-competitive, our ability to sell products in China may be limited.

37


The pig slaughtering and processed meat industries in China may face increasing competition from both domestic and foreign companies, as well as increasing industry consolidation, which may affect our market share and profit margin.
 
The pig slaughtering and processed meat industries in China are highly competitive. Our processed meat products are targeted at mid- to high-end consumers, a market in which we face increasing competition, particularly from foreign suppliers. In addition, the evolving government regulations in relation to the pig slaughtering industry have driven a trend of consolidation through the industry, with smaller operators unable to meet the increasing costs of regulatory compliance and therefore are at a competitive disadvantage. We believe that our ability to maintain our market share and grow our operations within this landscape of changing and increasing competition is largely dependent upon our ability to distinguish our products and services.
 
In addition, prior to China’s entry into the World Trade Organization (“WTO”), high barriers to entry existed for many potential competitors in our business through the use of tariffs and restrictive import licensing and distribution practices. China’s admission to WTO has lowered some of the tariffs and other barriers to entry so we can expect that competition will increase.
 
We cannot assure you that our current or potential competitors will not develop products of a comparable or superior quality to ours, or adapt more quickly than we do to evolving consumer preferences or market trends. In addition, our competitors in the raw meat market may merge or form alliances to achieve a scale of operations or sales network which would make it difficult for us to compete. Increased competition may also lead to price wars, counterfeit products or negative brand advertising, all of which may adversely affect our market share and profit margin. We cannot assure you that we will be able to compete effectively with our current or potential competitors.
 
The outbreak of animal diseases or other epidemics could adversely affect our operations.
 
An occurrence of serious animal diseases, such as foot-and-mouth disease, or any outbreak of other epidemics in China affecting animals or humans might result in material disruptions to our operations, material disruptions to the operations of our customers or suppliers, a decline in the supermarket or food retail industry or slowdown in economic growth in China and surrounding regions, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our operations and turnover. There can be no assurance that our facilities or products will not be affected by an outbreak of any disease or outbreak in the future, or that the market for pork products in the PRC will not decline as a result of fear of disease. In either case, our business, results of operations and financial condition would be adversely and materially affected.
 
Consumer concerns regarding the safety and quality of food products or health concerns could adversely affect sales of our products.
 
Our sales performance could be adversely affected if consumers lose confidence in the safety and quality of our products. Consumers in the PRC are increasingly conscious of food safety and nutrition. Consumer concerns about, for example, the safety of pork products, or about the safety of food additives used in processed meat products, could discourage them from buying certain of our products and cause our results of operations to suffer.

38

 
We may be subject to substantial liability should the consumption of any of our products cause personal injury or illness.
 
The sale of food products for human consumption involves an inherent risk of injury to consumers. Such injuries may result from tampering by unauthorized third parties or product contamination or degeneration, including the presence of foreign contaminants, chemical substances or other agents or residues during the various stages of the procurement and production process. While we are subject to governmental inspections and regulations, we cannot assure you that consumption of our products will not cause a health-related illness in the future, or that we will not be subject to claims or lawsuits relating to such matters.
 
Even if a product liability claim is unsuccessful or is not fully pursued, the negative publicity surrounding any assertions that our products caused personal injury or illness could adversely affect our reputation with customers and our corporate and brand image. Consistent with industry practice in China, we do not maintain product liability insurance. Furthermore, our products could potentially suffer from product tampering, contamination or degeneration or be mislabeled or otherwise damaged. Under certain circumstances, we may be required to recall products. Even if a situation does not necessitate a product recall, we cannot assure you that government sanctions or product liability claims will not be asserted against us as a result. A product liability judgment against us or a product recall could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
 
Our product and company name may be subject to counterfeiting and/or imitation, which could impact upon our reputation and brand image as well as lead to higher administrative costs.
 
We regard brand positioning as the core of our competitive strategy, and intend to position our brand, “Chuming™” to create the perception and image of health, nutrition, freshness and quality in the minds of our customers. There have been frequent occurrences of counterfeiting and imitation of products in the PRC in the past. We cannot guarantee that counterfeiting or imitation of our products will not occur in the future or that we will be able to detect it and deal with it effectively. Any occurrence of counterfeiting or imitation could impact negatively upon our corporate and brand image, particularly if the counterfeit or imitation products cause sickness, injury or death to consumers. In addition, counterfeit or imitation products could result in a reduction in our market share, a loss of revenues or an increase in our administrative expenses in respect of detection or prosecution.
 
Risks Relating To Conducting Business in the PRC
 
Substantially all of our assets and projects are located in the PRC, and substantially all of our revenue is sourced from the PRC. Accordingly, our results of operations and financial position are subject to a significant degree to economic, political and legal developments in the PRC, including the following risks:
 
Economic, political and social conditions and government policies in China could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
 
The economy of China differs from the economies of most developed countries in many respects, including, but not limited to:
 
 
·
structure

39


 
·
capital re-investment

 
·
government involvement

 
·
allocation of resources

 
·
level of development

 
·
control of foreign exchange

 
·
growth rate

 
·
rate of inflation
 
The economy of China has been transitioning from a planned economy to a more market-oriented economy. Although in recent years the PRC government has implemented measures emphasizing the utilization of market forces for economic reform, a substantial portion of productive assets in China is still owned by the PRC government. In addition, the PRC government continues to play a significant role in regulating industries by imposing industrial policies. It also exercises significant control over China’s economic growth through allocation of resources, controlling payment of foreign currency-denominated obligations, setting monetary policy and providing preferential treatment to particular industries or companies.
 
Policies and other measures taken by the PRC government to regulate the economy could have a significant negative impact on economic conditions in China, with a resulting negative impact on our business. For example, our financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected by:
 
 
·
new laws and regulations and the interpretation of those laws and regulations;

 
·
the introduction of measures to control inflation or stimulate growth;

 
·
changes in the rate or method of taxation;

 
·
the imposition of additional restrictions on currency conversion and remittances abroad; or

 
·
any actions which limit our ability to develop, produce, import or sell our products in China, or to finance and operate our business in China.
 
Uncertainties with respect to the PRC legal system could adversely affect us.
 
We conduct our business primarily through our affiliated Chinese entity, Dalian Precious Sheen Investments Consulting Co., Ltd. Our operations in China are governed by PRC laws and regulations. We are generally subject to laws and regulations applicable to foreign investments in China and, in particular, laws applicable to wholly foreign-owned enterprises. The PRC legal system is based on written statutes. Prior court decisions may be cited for reference but have limited precedential value.

40


Since 1979, PRC legislation and regulations have significantly enhanced the protections afforded to various forms of foreign investments in China. However, China has not developed a fully integrated legal system and recently enacted laws and regulations may not sufficiently cover all aspects of economic activities in China. In particular, because these laws and regulations are relatively new, and because of the limited volume of published decisions and their nonbinding nature, the interpretation and enforcement of these laws and regulations involve uncertainties. In addition, the PRC legal system is based in part on government policies and internal rules (some of which are not published on a timely basis or at all) that may have a retroactive effect. As a result, we may not be aware of our violation of these policies and rules until some time after the violation. In addition, any litigation in China may be protracted and result in substantial costs and diversion of resources and management attention.
 
You may experience difficulties in effecting service of legal process, enforcing foreign judgments or bringing original actions in China based on United States or other foreign laws against us, our management or the experts named in this prospectus.
 
We conduct substantially all of our operations in China and substantially all of our assets are located in China. In addition, while we are incorporated in the State of Nevada, all of our senior executive officers reside within China. As a result, it may not be possible to effect service of process within the United States or elsewhere outside China upon our senior executive officers, including with respect to matters arising under U.S. federal securities laws or applicable state securities laws. Moreover, our PRC counsel has advised us that the PRC does not have treaties with the United States or many other countries providing for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of judgment of courts.
 
Governmental control of currency conversion may affect the value of your investment.
 
The PRC government imposes controls on the convertibility of RMB into foreign currencies and, in certain cases, the remittance of currency out of China. We receive substantially all of our revenues in RMB. Under our current structure, our income is primarily derived from payments from Dalian Precious Sheen Investments Consulting Co., Ltd. Shortages in the availability of foreign currency may restrict the ability of our PRC subsidiaries and our affiliated entity to remit sufficient foreign currency to pay dividends or other payments to us, or otherwise satisfy their foreign currency denominated obligations. Under existing PRC foreign exchange regulations, payments of current account items, including profit distributions, interest payments and expenditures from trade-related transactions, can be made in foreign currencies without prior approval from the PRC State Administration of Foreign Exchange by complying with certain procedural requirements. However, approval from appropriate government authorities is required where RMB is to be converted into foreign currency and remitted out of China to pay capital expenses such as the repayment of bank loans denominated in foreign currencies. The PRC government may also at its discretion restrict access in the future to foreign currencies for current account transactions. If the foreign exchange control system prevents us from obtaining sufficient foreign currency to satisfy our currency demands, we may not be able to pay dividends in foreign currencies to our shareholders.
 
Fluctuation in the value of RMB may have a material adverse effect on your investment.
 
The value of RMB against the U.S. dollar and other currencies may fluctuate and is affected by, among other things, changes in political and economic conditions. Our revenues and costs are mostly denominated in RMB, while we report our financial results and position in U.S. dollars. Any significant fluctuation in value of RMB may materially and adversely affect our reported cash flows, revenues, earnings and financial position, and the value of, and any dividends payable on, our stock in U.S. dollars. For example, an appreciation of RMB against the U.S. dollar would make any new RMB denominated investments or expenditures more costly to us, to the extent that we need to convert U.S. dollars into RMB for such purposes. An appreciation of RMB against the U.S. dollar would also result in foreign currency translation losses for financial reporting purposes when we translate our U.S. dollar denominated financial assets into RMB, as RMB is our reporting currency.

We face risks related to health epidemics and other outbreaks.
 
Our business could be adversely affected by the effects of SARS or another epidemic or outbreak. China reported a number of cases of SARS in April 2004. Any prolonged recurrence of SARS or other adverse public health developments in China may have a material adverse effect on our business operations. For instance, health or other government regulations adopted in response may require temporary closure of our production facilities or of our offices. Such closures would severely disrupt our business operations and adversely affect our results of operations. We have not adopted any written preventive measures or contingency plans to combat any future outbreak of SARS or any other epidemic.

Risks Related to Our Corporate Structure
 
In order to comply with PRC laws limiting foreign ownership of Chinese companies, we conduct our business in the PRC through Chuming by means of certain ownership arrangements. If the PRC government determines that these ownership arrangements do not comply with applicable regulations, our business could be adversely affected and we could be subject to sanctions.
 
As a result of the share exchange transaction disclosed elsewhere in this prospectus, we own 100% of the equity interest in Precious Sheen Investments Limited, a British Virgin Islands company (“PSI “). PSI owns 100% of the equity in Dalian Precious Sheen Investments Consulting Co., Ltd., a wholly foreign owned enterprise in the People’s Republic of China (“Chuming”). Chuming is a holding company for the following three operating subsidiaries: (i) Dalian Chuming Slaughter and Packaging Pork Company Ltd., (ii) Dalian Chuming Processed Foods Company Ltd., and (iii) Dalian Chuming Sales Company Ltd., each of which is a limited liability company headquartered in, and organized under the laws of, China (collectively, the “Chuming Operating Subsidiaries”). Throughout this prospectus, PSI, Chuming and the Chuming Operating Subsidiaries are sometimes collectively referred to as “Chuming.”
 
The PRC government restricts foreign investment in businesses in China. Accordingly, we operate our business in China through Chuming. Chuming holds the licenses and approvals necessary to operate our business in China.
 
Although we believe we comply with current PRC regulations, we cannot assure you that the PRC government would agree that these operating arrangements comply with PRC licensing, registration or other regulatory requirements, with existing policies or with requirements or policies that may be adopted in the future. If in the future the PRC government determines that we do not comply with applicable PRC law, it could impose fines on our PRC shareholders, and in extreme cases, the PRC government could take steps to revoke our business and operating licenses, require us to discontinue or restrict our operations, restrict our right to collect revenues, require us to restructure our operations, impose additional conditions or requirements with which we may not be able to comply, impose restrictions on our business operations or on our customers, or take other regulatory or enforcement actions against us that could be harmful to our business. Any of these or similar actions could significantly disrupt our business operations or restrict us from conducting a substantial portion of our business operations, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Recent PRC regulations relating to acquisitions of PRC companies by foreign entities may limit our ability to acquire PRC companies and adversely affect the implementation of our strategy as well as our business and prospects.
 
The PRC State Administration of Foreign Exchange, or SAFE, issued a public notice in January 2005 concerning foreign exchange regulations on mergers and acquisitions in China. The public notice states that if an offshore company controlled by PRC residents intends to acquire a PRC company, such acquisition will be subject to strict examination by the relevant foreign exchange authorities. The public notice also states that the approval of the relevant foreign exchange authorities is required for any sale or transfer by the PRC residents of a PRC company’s assets or equity interests to foreign entities, such as us, for equity interests or assets of the foreign entities.
 
In April 2005, SAFE issued another public notice further explaining the January notice. In accordance with the April notice, if an acquisition of a PRC company by an offshore company controlled by PRC residents has been confirmed by a Foreign Investment Enterprise Certificate prior to the promulgation of the January notice, the PRC residents must each submit a registration form to the local SAFE branch with respect to their respective ownership interests in the offshore company, and must also file an amendment to such registration if the offshore company experiences material events, such as changes in the share capital, share transfer, mergers and acquisitions, spin-off transactions or use of assets in China to guarantee offshore obligations.
 
On May 31, 2007, SAFE issued another official notice known as “Circular 106,” which requires the owners of any Chinese company to obtain SAFE’s approval before establishing any offshore holding company structure for foreign financing as well as subsequent acquisition matters in China.
 
If we decide to acquire a PRC company, we cannot assure you that we or the owners of such company, as the case may be, will be able to complete the necessary approvals, filings and registrations for the acquisition. This may restrict our ability to implement our acquisition strategy and adversely affect our business and prospects. In addition, if such registration cannot be obtained, our company will not be able to receive dividends declared and paid by our subsidiaries in the PRC and may be forbidden from paying dividends for profit distribution or capital reduction purposes.
 
Chuming is subject to restrictions on making payments to us.
 
We are a holding company incorporated in the State of Nevada and do not have any assets or conduct any business operations other than our investment in Chuming and their operating subsidiaries in China. As a result of our holding company structure, we rely entirely on payments or dividends from Chuming for our cash flow to fund our corporate overhead and regulatory obligations. The PRC government also imposes controls on the conversion of Renminbi into foreign currencies and the remittance of currencies out of China. We may experience difficulties in completing the administrative procedures necessary to obtain and remit foreign currency. Further, if our subsidiaries in China incur debt on their own in the future, the instruments governing the debt may restrict their ability to make payments. If we are unable to receive all of the revenues from our operations through these contractual or dividend arrangements, we may be unable to pay dividends on our shares of common stock.

Risk Relating to an Investment in Our Securities
 
Generally, we have not paid any cash dividends and no cash dividends will be paid in the foreseeable future.
 
We do not anticipate paying cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future and we may not have sufficient funds legally available to pay dividends. Even if the funds are legally available for distribution, we may nevertheless decide or may be unable due to pay any dividends. We intend to retain all earnings for our company’s operations.
 
The application of the “penny stock” rules could adversely affect the market price of our common stock and increase your transaction costs to sell those shares.
 
As long as the trading price of our common shares is below $5 per share, the open-market trading of our common shares will be subject to the “penny stock” rules. The “penny stock” rules impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors (generally those with assets in excess of US$1,000,000 or annual income exceeding US$200,000 or US$300,000 together with their spouse). For transactions covered by these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchase of securities and have received the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction before the purchase. Additionally, for any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the broker-dealer must deliver, before the transaction, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must disclose the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative and current quotations for the securities. Finally, monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent price information on the limited market in penny stocks. These additional burdens imposed on broker-dealers may restrict the ability or decrease the willingness of broker-dealers to sell our common stock, and may result in decreased liquidity for our common stock and increased transaction costs for sales and purchases of our common stock as compared to other securities.
 
Our common stock is thinly traded and, you may be unable to sell at or near “ask” prices or at all if you need to sell your shares to raise money or otherwise desire to liquidate your shares.
 
We cannot predict the extent to which an active public market for our common stock will develop or be sustained. However, we do not rule out the possibility of applying for listing on the Nasdaq Global Select Market, Nasdaq Global Market, Nasdaq Capital Market (the “Nasdaq Markets”), or other exchanges. Our common stock has historically been sporadically or “thinly-traded” on the “Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board,” meaning that the number of persons interested in purchasing our common stock at or near bid prices at any given time may be relatively small or nonexistent. This situation is attributable to a number of factors, including the fact that we are a small company which is relatively unknown to stock analysts, stock brokers, institutional investors and others in the investment community that generate or influence sales volume, and that even if we came to the attention of such persons, they tend to be risk-adverse and would be reluctant to follow an unproven company such as ours or purchase or recommend the purchase of our shares until such time as we become more seasoned and viable. As a consequence, there may be periods of several days or more when trading activity in our shares is minimal or non-existent, as compared to a seasoned issuer that has a large and steady volume of trading activity that will generally support continuous sales without an adverse effect on share price. We cannot give you any assurance that a broader or more active public trading market for our common stock will develop or be sustained, or that current trading levels will be sustained.

The market price of our common stock is particularly volatile given our status as a relatively small company with a small and thinly traded “float” that could lead to wide fluctuations in our share price. The price at which you purchase our common stock may not be indicative of the price that will prevail in the trading market. You may be unable to sell your common stock at or above your purchase price if at all, which may result in substantial losses to you.

44

 
The market for our common stock is characterized by significant price volatility when compared to seasoned issuers, and we expect that our share price will continue to be more volatile than a seasoned issuer for the indefinite future. The volatility in our share price is attributable to a number of factors. As noted above, our common stock is sporadically and/or thinly traded. As a consequence of this lack of liquidity, the trading of relatively small quantities of shares by our shareholders may disproportionately influence the price of those shares in either direction. The price for our shares could, for example, decline precipitously in the event a large number of our common shares are sold on the market without commensurate demand, as compared to a seasoned issuer which could better absorb those sales without adverse impact on its share price. The following factors also may add to the volatility in the price of our common stock: actual or anticipated variations in our quarterly or annual operating results; adverse outcomes; additions to or departures of our key personnel, as well as other items discussed under this “Risk Factors” section, as well as elsewhere in this Report. Many of these factors are beyond our control and may decrease the market price of our common stock, regardless of our operating performance. We cannot make any predictions or projections as to what the prevailing market price for our common stock will be at any time, including as to whether our common stock will sustain its current market prices, or as to what effect the sale of shares or the availability of common shares for sale at any time will have on the prevailing market price. However, we do not rule out the possibility of applying for listing on the Nasdaq Markets or another exchange.
 
Shareholders should be aware that, according to SEC Release No. 34-29093, the market for penny stocks has suffered in recent years from patterns of fraud and abuse. Such patterns include (1) control of the market for the security by one or a few broker-dealers that are often related to the promoter or issuer; (2) manipulation of prices through pre-arranged matching of purchases and sales and false and misleading press releases; (3) boiler room practices involving high-pressure sales tactics and unrealistic price projections by inexperienced sales persons; (4) excessive and undisclosed bid-ask differential and markups by selling broker-dealers; and (5) the wholesale dumping of the same securities by promoters and broker-dealers after prices have been manipulated to a desired level, along with the resulting inevitable collapse of those prices and with consequent investor losses. Our management is aware of the abuses that have occurred historically in the penny stock market. Although we do not expect to be in a position to dictate the behavior of the market or of broker-dealers who participate in the market, management will strive within the confines of practical limitations to prevent the described patterns from being established with respect to our securities. The occurrence of these patterns or practices could increase the volatility of our share price.
 
Volatility in our common stock price may subject us to securities litigation.
 
The market for our common stock may be characterized by significant price volatility when compared to seasoned issuers, and we expect our share price will be more volatile than a seasoned issuer for the indefinite future. In the past, plaintiffs have often initiated securities class action litigation against a company following periods of volatility in the market price of its securities. We may, in the future, be the target of similar litigation. Securities litigation could result in substantial costs and liabilities and could divert management’s attention and resources.
 
Legislative actions, higher insurance costs and potential new accounting pronouncements may impact our future financial position and results of operations.
 
There have been regulatory changes, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, and there may potentially be new accounting pronouncements or additional regulatory rulings that will have an impact on our future financial position and results of operations. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and other rule changes, as well as proposed legislative initiatives following the Enron bankruptcy, are likely to increase general and administrative costs and expenses. In addition, insurers are likely to increase premiums as a result of high claims rates over the past several years, which we expect will increase our premiums for insurance policies. Further, there could be changes in certain accounting rules. These and other potential changes could materially increase the expenses we report under generally accepted accounting principles, and adversely affect our operating results.

45

 
Past activities of our company and its affiliates may lead to future liability for our company.
 
Prior to our acquisition of Chuming in December 2007, we engaged in businesses unrelated to our current operations. Although certain previously controlling shareholders of our company are providing certain indemnifications against any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense arising out of or based on any breach of or inaccuracy in any of their representations and warranties made regarding such acquisition, any liabilities relating to such prior business against which we are not completely indemnified may have a material adverse effect on our company.
 
Future sales of shares of our common stock may decrease the price for such shares.
 
Actual sales, or the prospect of sales by our shareholders, may have a negative effect on the market price of the shares of our common stock. We may also register certain shares of our common stock that are subject to outstanding convertible securities, if any, or reserved for issuance under our stock option plans, if any. Once such shares are registered, they can be freely sold in the public market upon exercise of the options. If any of our shareholders either individually or in the aggregate cause a large number of securities to be sold in the public market, or if the market perceives that these holders intend to sell a large number of securities, such sales or anticipated sales could result in a substantial reduction in the trading price of shares of our common stock and could also impede our ability to raise future capital.
 
Mergers of the type we just completed with Chuming are often heavily scrutinized by the SEC and we may encounter difficulties or delays in obtaining future regulatory approvals.
 
Historically, the Securities and Exchange Commission and Nasdaq have not generally favored transactions in which a privately-held company merges into a largely inactive company with publicly traded stock, and there is a significant risk that we may encounter difficulties in obtaining the regulatory approvals necessary to conduct future financing or acquisition transactions, or to eventually achieve a listing of shares on one of the Nasdaq stock markets or on a national securities exchange. On June 29, 2005, the SEC adopted rules dealing with private company mergers into dormant or inactive public companies. As a result, it is likely that we will be scrutinized carefully by the SEC and possibly by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, which could result in difficulties or delays in achieving SEC clearance of any future registration statements or other SEC filings that we may pursue, in attracting FINRA-member broker-dealers to serve as market-makers in our common stock, or in achieving admission to one of the Nasdaq stock markets or any other national securities market. As a consequence, our financial condition and the value and liquidity of your shares of our common stock may be negatively impacted.
 
Our corporate actions are substantially controlled by our principal shareholders and affiliated entities.
 
Our principal shareholders and their affiliated entities will own approximately 69.5% of our outstanding ordinary shares, representing approximately 69.5% of our voting power. These shareholders, acting individually or as a group, could exert substantial influence over matters such as electing directors and approving mergers or other business combination transactions. In addition, because of the percentage of ownership and voting concentration in these principal shareholders and their affiliated entities, elections of our board of directors will generally be within the control of these shareholders and their affiliated entities. While all of our shareholders are entitled to vote on matters submitted to our shareholders for approval, the concentration of shares and voting control presently lies with these principal shareholders and their affiliated entities. As such, it would be difficult for shareholders to propose and have approved proposals not supported by management. There can be no assurances that matters voted upon by our officers and directors in their capacity as shareholders will be viewed favorably by all shareholders of our company.

46

 
The elimination of monetary liability against our directors, officers and employees under Nevada law and the existence of indemnification rights to our directors, officers and employees may result in substantial expenditures by us and may discourage lawsuits against our directors, officers and employees.
 
Our articles of incorporation contain specific provisions that eliminate the liability of our directors for monetary damages to our company and shareholders, and we are prepared to give such indemnification to our directors and officers to the extent provided by Nevada law. We may also have contractual indemnification obligations under our employment agreements with our officers. The foregoing indemnification obligations could result in our company incurring substantial expenditures to cover the cost of settlement or damage awards against directors and officers, which we may be unable to recoup. These provisions and resultant costs may also discourage our company from bringing a lawsuit against directors and officers for breaches of their fiduciary duties, and may similarly discourage the filing of derivative litigation by our shareholders against our directors and officers even though such actions, if successful, might otherwise benefit our company and shareholders.
 
The market price for our stock may be volatile.
 
The market price for our stock may be volatile and subject to wide fluctuations in response to factors including the following:
 
 
·
actual or anticipated fluctuations in our quarterly operating results;

 
·
changes in financial estimates by securities research analysts;

 
·
conditions in agricultural markets;

 
·
changes in the economic performance or market valuations of other meat processing companies;

 
·
announcements by us or our competitors of new products, acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures or capital commitments;

 
·
addition or departure of key personnel;

 
·
fluctuations of exchange rates between RMB and the U.S. dollar;

 
·
intellectual property litigation;

 
·
general economic or political conditions in China.

47

 
In addition, the securities market has from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are not related to the operating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of our stock.
 
We may need additional capital, and the sale of additional shares or other equity securities could result in additional dilution to our shareholders.
 
We believe that our current cash and cash equivalents, anticipated cash flow from operations and the net proceeds from a recent offering will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash needs for the near future. We may, however, require additional cash resources due to changed business conditions or other future developments, including any investments or acquisitions we may decide to pursue. If our resources are insufficient to satisfy our cash requirements, we may seek to sell additional equity or debt securities or obtain a credit facility. The sale of additional equity securities could result in additional dilution to our shareholders. The incurrence of indebtedness would result in increased debt service obligations and could result in operating and financing covenants that would restrict our operations. We cannot assure you that financing will be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all.

SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

All statements contained in this prospectus, other than statements of historical facts, that address future activities, events or developments, are forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, statements containing the words “believe,” “anticipate,” “expect” and words of similar import. These statements are based on certain assumptions and analyses made by us in light of our experience and our assessment of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments as well as other factors we believe are appropriate under the circumstances. However, whether actual results will conform to the expectations and predictions of management is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially. Such risks are summarized on page 1, in the section entitled “Risk Factors” on page 31, and in our previous SEC filings.

Consequently, all of the forward-looking statements made in this prospectus are qualified by these cautionary statements and there can be no assurance that the actual results anticipated by management will be realized or, even if substantially realized, that they will have the expected consequences to or effects on our business operations.

USE OF PROCEEDS
 
We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares by the selling shareholders. All proceeds from the sale of the shares offered by the selling shareholders under this prospectus will be for the account of the selling shareholders, as described below in the sections entitled “Selling shareholders” and “Plan of Distribution.” With the exception of any brokerage fees and commissions which are the respective obligations of the selling shareholders, we are responsible for the fees, costs and expenses of this offering which includes our legal and accounting fees, printing costs and filing and other miscellaneous fees and expenses.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
 
We are registering the shares of our common stock sold to certain investors in our December 31, 2007 Financing, to permit the resale of these shares of common stock by the selling shareholders from time to time after the date of this prospectus. We are also registering shares of common stock held in escrow under our Make Good Escrow Agreement, which shares will not be released until determination of our 2008 and 2009 financial results. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale by the selling shareholders of the shares of common stock held by them. We will bear all fees and expenses incident to our obligation to register these shares of common stock.
 
48

 
The selling shareholders and any of their pledgees, donees, transferees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their shares of common stock on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or quoted or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. The selling shareholders may use any one or more of the following methods when selling shares:
 
 
·
ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits Investors;
 
 
·
block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
 
 
·
purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;
 
 
·
an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;
 
 
·
privately negotiated transactions;
 
 
·
to cover short sales made after the date that this Registration Statement is declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission;
 
 
·
broker-dealers may agree with the Selling shareholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;
 
 
·
a combination of any such methods of sale; and
 
 
·
any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.
 
The selling shareholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus.
 
Broker-dealers engaged by the selling shareholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the selling shareholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated. The selling shareholders do not expect these commissions and discounts to exceed what is customary in the types of transactions involved.
 
The selling shareholders may from time to time pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell shares of common stock from time to time under this prospectus, or under an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act of 1933 amending the list of selling shareholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling shareholders under this prospectus.

49


When we are notified in writing by a selling shareholder that any material arrangement has been entered into with a broker-dealer for the sale of common stock through a block trade, special offering, exchange distribution or secondary distribution or a purchase by a broker or dealer, a supplement to this prospectus will be filed, if required, pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, disclosing (i) the name of each such selling shareholder and of the participating broker-dealer(s), (ii) the number of shares involved, (iii) the price at which such the shares of common stock were sold, (iv)the commissions paid or discounts or concessions allowed to such broker-dealer(s), where applicable, (v) that such broker-dealer(s) did not conduct any investigation to verify the information set out or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, and (vi) other facts material to the transaction. In addition, when we are notified in writing by a selling shareholder that a donee or pledgee intends to sell more than 500 shares of common stock, a supplement to this prospectus will be filed if then required in accordance with applicable securities law.
 
The selling shareholders also may transfer the shares of common stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.
 
The selling shareholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the shares may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. Discounts, concessions, commissions and similar selling expenses, if any, that can be attributed to the sale of securities will be paid by the selling shareholder and/or the purchasers. Each selling shareholder has represented and warranted to us that it acquired the securities subject to this prospectus and the registration statement of which it forms a part, in the ordinary course of such selling shareholder’s business and, at the time of its purchase of such securities such selling shareholder had no agreements or understandings, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute any such securities.
 
We have advised each selling shareholder that it may not use shares covered under this prospectus and the registration statement of which it forms a part, to cover short sales of common stock made prior to the date on which the registration statement shall have been declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission. If a selling shareholder uses this prospectus for any sale of the common stock, it will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The selling shareholders will be responsible to comply with the applicable provisions of the Securities Act and Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations thereunder promulgated, including, without limitation, Regulation M, as applicable to such selling shareholders in connection with resales of their respective shares under the related registration statement.
 
We are required to pay all fees and expenses incident to the registration of the shares, but we will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the common stock. We have agreed to indemnify the selling shareholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

SELLING SHAREHOLDERS

We are registering this offering under the terms of securities purchase agreements between us and the holders of certain of our securities. Such securities were issued by us in transactions that were exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act to persons reasonably believed by us to be “accredited investors” as defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act. We are registering these securities in order to permit the selling shareholders who purchased them from us to dispose of the shares of common stock, or interests therein, from time to time. The selling shareholders may sell all, some, or none of their shares in this offering. See “Plan of Distribution.”

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis of the results of operations and financial condition of Chuming for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004 and for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 should be read in conjunction with the Selected Consolidated Financial Data, the consolidated financial statements, and the notes to those financial statements that are included elsewhere in this prospectus. Our discussion includes forward-looking statements based upon current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties, such as our plans, objectives, expectations and intentions. Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors, including those set forth under the Risk Factors, Cautionary Notice Regarding Forward-Looking Statements and Business sections in this prospectus. We use words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plan,” “project,” “continuing,” “ongoing,” “expect,” “believe,” “intend,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements.
 
OVERVIEW

We are a meat processing company that specializes in pork and pork products. We have a unique wholesale and retail distribution model and sell directly to over 7,600 retail outlets, including supermarkets and hypermarkets across Northeast China.
 
Dalian Precious Sheen Investments Consulting Co., Ltd. (“Chuming”) is our holding company established in the People’s Republic of China (the “ PRC“ or “ China“) as a holding company for our three PRC operating subsidiaries (collectively, the “ Chuming Operating Subsidiaries“):
 
 
1.
Dalian Chuming Slaughter and Packaging Pork Company Ltd. (the "Meat Company"), whose primary business activity is acquiring, slaughtering and packaging of pork and cattle;

 
2.
Dalian Chuming Processed Foods Company Ltd. (the "Foods Company"), whose primary business activity is the processing of raw and cooked meat products; and

 
3.
Dalian Chuming Sales Company Ltd. (the "Sales Company"), which is responsible for Chuming’s sales, marketing and distribution operations.
 
The Chuming Operating Subsidiaries are spun off constituents of Chuming’s former parent company, Dalian Chuming Group Co., Ltd. Our primary business activities are the production and packing of fresh pork and also production of processed meat products for distribution and sale to clients throughout the PRC. We are headquartered in the City of Dalian, Liaoning Province of China. Chuming was incorporated in China as wholly foreign owned enterprise on in December 2007.
 
On December 31, 2007, Energroup acquired all of the outstanding shares of PSI in exchange for the issuance by Energroup of 16,850,000 restricted shares of our common stock to the shareholders of PSI, which represented approximately 97.55% of the then-issued and outstanding common stock of Energroup (excluding the shares issued in the Financing). As a result of this Exchange Transaction, PSI became Energroup’s wholly owned subsidiary and Energroup acquired the business and operations of Chuming.

55


Concurrently with the closing of the Exchange Transaction, on December 31, 2007 we raised $17,000,000 in a private placement by issuing 3,863,635 shares of our common stock to investors at $4.40 per share.
 
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Our management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our combined financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements as well as the reported net sales and expenses during the reporting periods. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and assumptions. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

While our significant accounting policies are more fully described in Note 2 to our combined financial statements included in this prospectus, we believe that the following accounting policies are the most critical to aid you in fully understanding and evaluating this management discussion and analysis:

Method of Accounting

We maintain our general ledger and journals with the accrual method accounting for financial reporting purposes. The financial statements and notes are representations of management. Accounting policies adopted by us conform to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America and have been consistently applied in the presentation of financial statements, which are compiled on the accrual basis of accounting.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements, which include the Company and its subsidiaries, are compiled in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The consolidated financial statements include 100% of assets, liabilities, and net income or loss of those wholly-owned subsidiaries.

We own three operating subsidiaries. The Sales Company and the Meat Company were incorporated and have been in existence since 2004. The Foods Company has been in existence since late 2003. As of December 31, 2006, the detailed identities of the consolidating subsidiaries are as follows:

Name of Company
 
Place of Incorporation

RMB 5,000,000
 
 
56


The consolidation of these operating subsidiaries into a newly formed holding company is permitted by United States GAAP: ARB51 paragraph 22 and 23.

Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management makes these estimates using the best information available at the time the estimates are made; however, actual results could differ materially from these estimates.

Accounts Receivable

We extend unsecured, non interest bearing credit to our customers; accordingly, we carry an allowance for doubtful accounts, which is an estimate, made by management. Management makes its estimate based on prior experience rates and assessment of specific outstanding customer balances. Management must approve credit extended to new customers who have met the criteria of our credit policy.

Inventory Carrying Value

Inventory, consisting of raw materials in the form of livestock, work in progress, and finished products, is stated at the lower of cost or market value. Finished products are comprised of direct materials, direct labor and an appropriate proportion of overhead. Periodic evaluation is made by management to identify if inventory needs to be written down because of damage, or spoilage. Cost is computed using the weighted average method.

Property, Plant, and Equipment

Property, plant, and equipment are stated at cost. Repairs and maintenance to these assets are charged to expense as incurred; major improvements enhancing the function and/or useful life are capitalized. When items are sold or retired, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gains or losses arising from such transactions are recognized.

Construction in progress represents the direct costs of design, acquisition, and construction of buildings, building improvements and land improvements. Capitalization of these costs ceases when substantially all activities necessary to prepare the assets for their intended use are completed. At such point, construction in progress is transferred to its respective asset classification. No depreciation is provided until it is completed and ready for intended use.

Property and equipment are depreciated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful life with a 5% salvage value. Their useful lives are as follows:
 
Fixed Asset Classification
 
  Useful Life
Land Improvements
 
  10 years
Buildings
 
  20 years
Building Improvements
 
  10 years
Manufacturing Machinery & Equipment
 
  10 years
Office Equipment
 
  5 years
Furniture & Fixtures
 
  5 years
Vehicles
 
  5 years
 
57


Land Use Rights

Land use rights are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. Amortization is provided over its useful life, using the straight-line method. The useful life of the land use right is 50 years.

Accounting for Impairment of Assets

We review the recoverability of our long-lived assets, such as property and equipment, when events or changes in circumstances occur that indicate the carrying value of the asset group may not be recoverable. The assessment of possible impairment is based on our ability to recover the carrying value of the asset from the expected future cash flows, undiscounted and without interest charges, of the related operations. If these cash flows are less than the carrying value of such assets, an impairment loss is recognized for the difference between estimated fair value and carrying value. The measurement of impairment requires management to estimate future cash flows and the fair value of long-lived assets.

Statutory Reserve

Statutory reserve refers to the amount appropriated from the net income in accordance with laws or regulations, which can be used to recover losses and increase capital, as approved, and, are to be used to expand production or operations. PRC laws prescribe that an enterprise operating at a profit, must appropriate, on an annual basis, from its earnings, an amount to the statutory reserve to be used for future company development. Such an appropriation is made until the reserve reaches a maximum equaling 50% of the enterprise’s capital.

Other Comprehensive Income

Comprehensive income is defined to include all changes in equity except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. Among other disclosures, all items that are required to be recognized under current accounting standards as components of comprehensive income are required to be reported in a financial statement that is presented with the same prominence as other financial statements. Our current component of other comprehensive income is the foreign currency translation adjustment.

Recognition of Revenue

Revenue from the sale of pork products, etc., is recognized on the transfer of risks and rewards of ownership, which generally coincides with the time when the goods are delivered to customers and the title has passed. 

Income Taxes

We account for income tax using an asset and liability approach and allow for recognition of deferred tax benefits in future years. Under the asset and liability approach, deferred taxes are provided for the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. A valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not these items will either expire we are able to realize their benefits, or that future realization is uncertain.

We are operating in the PRC, and in accordance with the relevant tax laws and regulations of PRC, the corporation income tax rate is 33%.

58

 
Economic and Political Risks

Our operations are conducted in the PRC. Accordingly, our 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 economy.

Foreign Currency Translation

We maintain our financial statements in the functional currency. The functional currency of the Company is the Renminbi (RMB). Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at rates of exchange prevailing at the balance sheet dates. Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchanges rates prevailing at the dates of the transaction. Exchange gains or losses arising from foreign currency transactions are included in the determination of net income for the respective periods.

For financial reporting purposes, our financial statements which are prepared using the functional currency have been translated into United States dollars. Assets and liabilities are translated at the 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 translation adjustments resulting are not included in determining net income but are included in foreign exchange adjustment to other comprehensive income, a component of shareholders’ equity.

Chinese RMB are not freely convertible into other foreign currencies, and all foreign exchange transactions must take place through authorized government regulatory 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.

Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the sum of the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding and dilutive potential ordinary shares during the years. During the years ended 2004, 2005, and 2006, no dilutive potential ordinary shares were issued.

We compute earnings per share (“EPS”) in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, “Earnings per share” (“SFAS No. 128”), and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 98 (“SAB 98”). SFAS No. 128 requires companies with complex capital structures to present basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is measured as the income or loss available to common shareholders divided by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is similar to basic EPS but presents the dilutive effect on a per share basis of potential common shares (e.g., convertible securities, options, and warrants) as if they had been converted at the beginning of the periods presented, or issuance date, if later. Potential common shares that have an anti-dilutive effect (i.e., those that increase income per share or decrease loss per share) are excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2005, the FASB issued a SFAS 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections” to replace APB Opinion No. 20, “Accounting Changes” and SFAS 3, “Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements” requiring retrospective application to prior periods financial statements of changes in accounting principle, unless it is impracticable to determine either the period-specific effects or the cumulative effect of the change. When it is impracticable to determine the period-specific effects of an accounting change on one or more individual prior periods presented, SFAS 154 requires the new accounting principle be applied to the balances of assets and liabilities as of the beginning of the earliest period for which retrospective application is practicable and that a corresponding adjustment be made to the opening balance of retained earnings (or other appropriate components of equity or net assets in the statement of financial position) for that period rather than being reported in an income statement. When it is impracticable to determine the cumulative effect of applying a change in accounting principle to all prior periods, SFAS 154 requires that the new accounting principle be applied as if it were adopted prospectively from the earliest date practicable. The effective date for this statement is for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2005.

In February 2006, the FASB issued a SFAS 155, “Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments” to amend FASB Statements No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, and No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities. This statement permits fair value remeasurement for any hybrid financial instrument that contains an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation and eliminate the prohibition on a qualifying special-purpose entity from holding a derivative financial instrument that pertains to a beneficial interest other than another derivative financial instrument. This statement is effective for all financial instruments acquired or issued after the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006.

In July 2006, the FASB issued FIN 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109, which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in tax positions. This Interpretation requires that we recognize in our consolidated financial statements the impact of a tax position if that position is more likely than not of being sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position. The provisions of FIN 48 are effective for us on January 1, 2007, with the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle, if any, recorded as an adjustment to opening retained earnings.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 157, Fair Value Measurements, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements, where fair value is the relevant measurement attribute. The standard does not require any new fair value measurements. SFAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal year beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years.
 
In September 2006, the SEC issued SAB No. 108, which provides guidance on the process of quantifying financial statement misstatements. In SAB No. 108, the SEC staff establishes an approach that requires quantification of financial statement errors, under both the iron-curtain and the roll-over methods, based on the effects of the error on each of our financial statements and the related financial statement disclosures. SAB No.108 is generally effective for annual financial statements in the first fiscal year ending after November 15, 2006. The transition provisions of SAB No. 108 permits existing public companies to record the cumulative effect in the first year ending after November 15, 2006 by recording correcting adjustments to the carrying values of assets and liabilities as of the beginning of that year with the offsetting adjustment recorded to the opening balance of retained earnings.

60


In February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities—Including an Amendment of SFAS 115 (SFAS No. 159), which allows for the option to measure financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected are reported in earnings. The objective of SFAS 159 is to provide opportunities to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply hedge accounting provisions. SFAS 159 also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between companies that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. This statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. We are currently evaluating the impact of SFAS No. 159 on our consolidated financial statements.

Contractual Obligations and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
Contractual Obligations
 
We have certain fixed contractual obligations and commitments that include future estimated payments. Changes in our business needs, cancellation provisions, changing interest rates, and other factors may result in actual payments differing from the estimates. We cannot provide certainty regarding the timing and amounts of payments. We have presented below a summary of the most significant assumptions used in our determination of amounts presented in the tables, in order to assist in the review of this information within the context of our consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.

Off-balance Sheet Arrangements
 
We have not entered into any other financial guarantees or other commitments to guarantee the payment obligations of any third parties. We have not entered into any derivative contracts that are indexed to our shares and classified as shareholder’s equity or that are not reflected in our consolidated financial statements. Furthermore, we do not have any retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to an unconsolidated entity that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support to such entity. We do not have any variable interest in any unconsolidated entity that provides financing, liquidity, market risk or credit support to us or engages in leasing, hedging or research and development services with us.

Related Party Transactions

For a description of our related party transactions, see the section of this Prospectus entitled “Certain Relationships and Related Transactions.”

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk 

We do not use derivative financial instruments in our investment portfolio and have no foreign exchange contracts. Our financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, accounts payable and long-term obligations. We consider investments in highly liquid instruments purchased with a remaining maturity of 90 days or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. However, in order to manage the foreign exchange risks, we may engage in hedging activities to manage our financial exposure related to currency exchange fluctuation. In these hedging activities, we might use fixed-price, forward, futures, financial swaps and option contracts traded in the over-the-counter markets or on exchanges, as well as long-term structured transactions when feasible.

Interest Rates. Our exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to our short-term investments and short-term obligations; thus, fluctuations in interest rates would not have a material impact on the fair value of these securities. At September 30, 2007, we had approximately $ 2,457,434 in cash and cash equivalents. A hypothetical 10% increase or decrease in interest rates would not have a material impact on our earnings or loss, or the fair market value or cash flows of these instruments.
 
Foreign Exchange Rates. All of our sales and inputs are transacted in Renminbi (“RMB”). As a result, changes in the relative values of U.S. Dollars and RMB affect our reported levels of revenues and profitability as the results are translated into U.S. Dollars for reporting purposes. However, since we conduct our sales and purchase inputs in RMB, fluctuations in exchange rates are not expected to significantly affect our financial stability, or gross and net profit margins. We do not currently expect to incur significant foreign exchange gains or losses, or gains or losses associated with any foreign operations. 
 
67


Our exposure to foreign exchange risk primarily relates to currency gains or losses resulting from timing differences between signing of sales contracts and settling of these contracts. Furthermore, we translate monetary assets and liabilities denominated in other currencies into RMB, the functional currency of our operating business. Our results of operations and cash flow are translated at average exchange rates during the period, and assets and liabilities are translated at the unified exchange rate as quoted by the People’s Bank of China at the end of the period. Translation adjustments resulting from this process are included in accumulated other comprehensive income in our statement of shareholders’ equity. We recorded net foreign currency gains of $285,352 and $610,696 in 2005 and 2006, respectively. We have not used any forward contracts, currency options or borrowings to hedge our exposure to foreign currency exchange risk. We cannot predict the impact of future exchange rate fluctuations on our results of operations and may incur net foreign currency losses in the future. As our sales denominated in foreign currencies, such as RMB, continue to grow, we may consider using arrangements to hedge our exposure to foreign currency exchange risk.

Our financial statements are expressed in U.S. dollars but the functional currency of our operating subsidiary is RMB. The value of your investment in our stock will be affected by the foreign exchange rate between U.S. dollars and RMB. A decline in the value of RMB against the U.S. dollar could reduce the U.S. dollar equivalent amounts of our financial results, the value of your investment in our company and the dividends we may pay in the future, if any, all of which may have a material adverse effect on the price of our stock.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS 

We are not aware of any material existing or pending legal proceedings against us, nor are we involved as a plaintiff in any material proceeding or pending litigation. There are no proceedings in which any of our current directors, officers or affiliates, or any registered or beneficial shareholder, is an adverse party or has a material interest adverse to us.

There are no family relationships, or other arrangements or understandings between or among any of the directors, executive officers or other person pursuant to which such person was selected to serve as a director or officer.
 
On February 6, 2008, Wendi Li resigned from our board of directors shortly after having been appointed. Ms. Li’s resignation was not due to any disagreements with our policies or management. Our board of directors is presently reviewing the candidacy of an independent director to fill the vacancy resulting from Ms. Li’s departure.
 
Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings
 
Our directors, executive officers and control persons have not been involved in any of the following events during the past five years:
 
1.     any bankruptcy petition filed by or against any business of which such person was a general partner or executive officer either at the time of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that time;
 
2.     any conviction in a criminal proceeding or being subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses);
 
3.     being subject to any order, judgment, or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction, permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting his involvement in any type of business, securities or banking activities; or
 
4.     being found by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a civil action), the SEC or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law, and the judgment has not been reversed, suspended, or vacated.
 
Audit Committee of the Board; Audit Committee Financial Expert
 
Our board of directors does not have a separate audit committee, however, we are not currently required to have such a committee. The functions ordinarily handled by an audit committee are currently handled by our entire board of directors. Our board of directors intends, however, to review our governance structure and institute board committees as necessary and advisable in the future, to facilitate the management of our business.
 
Our board of directors has also determined that it does not have a member of the board that qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in Item 401(e) of Regulation S-B, and is “independent” as the term is used in Item 7(d)(3)(iv) of Schedule 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended and as defined by Rule 4200(a)(15) of the NASDAQ Marketplace Rules. We believe that the members of our board of directors are collectively capable of analyzing and evaluating our financial statements and understanding internal controls and procedures for financial reporting. However, we are considering appointing an independent qualified financial expert to our board of directors in order to strengthen and improve its internal disclosure controls and procedures.
 
Director Independence
 
In connection with the Exchange Transaction, we appointed three non-independent directors, Shi Huashan, Wang Shu and Ma Fengqin, and independent directors Wang Shuying, Matthew Dillon, and Nestor Gounaris, to our board of directors. Management believes these independent directors meet the definitions and criteria for independence under the NASDAQ rules.

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act
 
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires our executive officers and directors, and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of a registered class of our equity securities to file with the SEC initial statements of beneficial ownership, reports of changes in ownership and annual reports concerning their ownership of our common stock and other equity securities, on Forms 3, 4 and 5 respectively. Executive officers, directors and greater than 10% shareholders are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) reports they file. Based on a review of the copies of such forms received by us, and to the best of our knowledge, all executive officers, directors and greater than 10% shareholders filed the required reports in a timely manner for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

No interlocking relationship exists between our board of directors on compensation committee of any other company, nor has any interlocking relationship existed in the past.
 
Code of Business Conduct and Ethics
 
We have not adopted a code of business conduct and ethics that applies to our officers, directors and employees, including our Chief Executive Officer, senior executive officers, principal accounting officer, controller and other senior financial officers.
 
Our board of directors and management are currently considering adopting a code of business conduct in connection with an overall review of our corporate governance and other policies in light of Section 406 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.
 
EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

We did not pay any compensation to members of our board of directors for fiscal year 2006. However, in connection with the Exchange Transaction, we appointed seven new directors consisting of four independent directors, Wang Shuying, Matthew Dillon, Wendy Li and Nestor Gounaris, and three non-independent directors, Shi Huashan, Wang Shu and Ma Fengqin. For our upcoming fiscal year, we have agreed to pay these incoming successor directors a flat fee of $12,000 per year as compensation for their services as directors, with additional compensation for service on board committees to be determined by the full board of directors.

Indemnification

The Nevada Revised Statutes and our bylaws permit us to indemnify our officers and directors for liabilities they may incur, including liabilities under the Securities Act and Exchange Act. Our bylaws provide that our officers and directors may be indemnified by us in the event of third party actions, if the officer or director acted in good faith and in a manner that he or she reasonably believed was in or not against the company’s best interests, and with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reason to believe that his or her actions were unlawful. Our bylaws also provide that we may provide indemnification for our officer and directors for any action by the company against such directors and officers, if the officer or director acted in good faith and in a manner that he or she reasonably believed was in or not against the company’s best interests, except no indemnification may be made for negligence or misconduct of such director’s or officer’s duties to the company, unless a court in which the matter is brought determines that in view of all the circumstance of the case, the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification. This and our bylaws indemnification may, however, be unenforceable as against public policy.

In conjunction with this stock purchase agreement, on May 3, 2007, certain of Energroup’s then-principal shareholders, as a condition of the closing of the stock purchase agreement surrendered and cancelled 1,350,000 then-issued and outstanding shares of Energroup common stock. These shares were surrendered as follows: Jenson Services, Inc., which then owned 2,480,500 pre-reverse split shares (approximately 354,290 post-reverse split shares) (or approximately 68% of our then-outstanding voting securities) delivered 375,000 of its pre-reverse split shares (approximately 53,572 post-reverse split shares) for cancellation; James P. Doolin, which then owned 475,000 pre-reverse split shares (approximately 67,858 post-reverse split shares) (or approximately 13% of our then-outstanding voting securities) delivered 475,000 pre-reverse split shares (approximately 67,858 post-reverse split shares) for cancellation; and his sister, Alycia Anthony, which then owned 500,000 pre-reverse split shares (approximately 71,429 post-reverse split shares (or approximately 14% of our then-outstanding voting securities) delivered 500,000 pre-reverse split shares (approximately 71,429 post-reverse split shares) for cancellation. All of these cancelled shares were returned to the status of authorized and unissued shares of Energroup. No consideration was given by Energroup in the cancellation of these shares. The effect of the share cancellations was to reduce the carrying par value of shares surrendered and a corresponding increase to additional paid-in capital.

Under the terms of the stock purchase agreement, on May 3, 2007, the board of directors of Energroup at the time declared a special cash distribution of $0.1219 per share to shareholders of record as of May 17, 2007, the record date for the special cash distribution. Neither HFI or the shares surrendered by Jenson Services or James P. Doolin or Alycia Anthony participated in the special cash distribution. The special cash distribution was paid on May 29, 2007, to shareholders of record on the record date, subject to the closing of the stock purchase agreement. The special cash distribution was paid to the holders of an aggregate 2,297,421 pre-reverse split shares of Energroup’s common stock, after giving effect to the cancellation of 1,350,000 pre-reverse split shares discussed above, which resulted in a total cash distribution of approximately $280,000. The special cash distribution was a condition of the closing of the stock purchase agreement.

77

 
Further, the stock purchase agreement contained covenants that required HFI, in its capacity as Energroup’s controlling shareholder following closing of the stock purchase agreement, to agree that it will not approve any reverse splits other than a one-time reverse split of not greater than 1-for-7 without the prior consent of Energroup’s former officers as representatives of Energroup’s continuing shareholders; that it will not authorize the issuance of any additional shares of common stock or securities convertible into shares of common stock except in connection with a combination transaction with a corporation with current business operations (a “Going Public Transaction”); and that it will not allow Energroup to enter into a Going Public Transaction unless Energroup, on a combined basis with the operating entity with which it completes a Going Public Transaction, satisfies the financial conditions for listing on the Nasdaq Small-Cap Market (now Nasdaq Capital Market) immediately following the closing of the Going Public Transaction. These conditions were deemed satisfied by HFI prior to the Exchange Transaction of December 31, 2007. The stock purchase agreement also grants demand and “piggy back” registration rights to HFI and to any continuing holders of Energroup’s common stock that are deemed to be holding “restricted securities.”

As at the date of this prospectus, we do not have any policies in place with respect to whether we will enter into agreements with related parties in the future.
 
DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

The following information describes our capital stock and provisions of our articles of incorporation and our bylaws, all as in effect upon the closing of the Exchange Transaction. This description is only a summary. You should also refer to our articles of incorporation, bylaws and articles of amendment which have been incorporated by reference or filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission as exhibits to the registration statement on Form S-1 of which this prospectus forms a part.

General

On December 14, 2007, we conducted a 4.6 to 1 reverse stock split, which resulted in the reduction of our outstanding common stock from 1,943,812 to 422,756 shares. In the December 31, 2007 reverse take-over transaction, we issued a total of 16,850,000 shares in a share exchange transaction, which increased our outstanding shares of common stock to 17,272,756. In the concurrent Financing on December 31, 2007, we issued an additional 3,863,635 shares of common stock, bringing our total number of outstanding shares to 21,136,391 shares of common stock. We currently are authorized to issue up to 21,739,130 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.001 par value per share. As of February 11, 2008, there were 21,136,391 shares of common stock issued and outstanding, and no shares of preferred stock issued or outstanding.
 
Common Stock

Holders of common stock are entitled to one vote for each share on all matters submitted to a shareholder vote. Holders of common stock do not have cumulative voting rights. Subject to preferences that may be applicable to any then-outstanding preferred stock, holders of common stock are entitled to share in all dividends that the board of directors, in its discretion, declares from legally available funds. In the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, subject to preferences that may be applicable to any then-outstanding preferred stock, each outstanding share entitles its holder to participate in all assets that remain after payment of liabilities and after providing for each class of stock, if any, having preference over the common stock.

Holders of common stock have no conversion, preemptive or other subscription rights, and there are no redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to the common stock. The rights of the holders of common stock are subject to any rights that may be fixed for holders of preferred stock, when and if any preferred stock is authorized and issued. All outstanding shares of common stock are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
 
78


Preferred Stock

Our board of directors, without further shareholder approval, may issue preferred stock in one or more classes or series as the board may determine from time to time. Each such class or series shall be distinctly designated. All shares of any one class or series of the preferred stock shall be alike in every particular, except that there may be different dates from which dividends thereon, if any, shall be cumulative, if made cumulative. The voting powers, designations, preferences, limitations, restrictions and relative rights thereof, if any, may differ from those of any and all other series outstanding at any time. Our board of directors has express authority to fix (by resolutions adopted prior to the issuance of any shares of each particular class or series of preferred stock) the number of shares, voting powers, designations, preferences, limitations, restrictions and relative rights of each such class or series. The rights granted to the holders of any series of preferred stock could adversely affect the voting power of the holders of common stock and issuance of preferred stock may delay, defer or prevent a change in our control.

Registration Rights

We have agreed to undertake to file this prospectus and related registration statement to register the common stock issued to the investors in the Financing. In the event that the registration statement is not declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission within 135 days of the closing of the Financing, we will also owe liquidated damages to the investors of 1% of the total financing amount in cash per month after the 135 day period. The liquidated damages payable to the investors in the event of non-registration or late effectiveness is subject to a cap of 10% of the total financing amount.

Registration of these shares of common stock upon exercise of these registration rights would result in the holders being able to trade these shares without restriction under the Securities Act once the applicable registration statement is declared effective. We will pay all registration expenses related to any registration. Non-registration penalties do not apply when the holder can sell all of the holder’s shares pursuant to Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act.

DIVIDENDS

On May 3, 2007, prior to the Exchange Transaction, Energroup, along with its then-current directors and executive officers, entered into a stock purchase agreement with Halter Financial Investments, L.P., a Texas limited partnership (“HFI”), pursuant to which we agreed to sell to HFI 11,200,000 pre-reverse split shares (approximately 1,600,000 post-reverse split shares) of unregistered, restricted common stock for $350,000 cash. This transaction closed on May 22, 2007. In conjunction with this stock purchase agreement, on May 3, 2007, certain of our then-principal shareholders, as a condition of the closing of the stock purchase agreement surrendered and cancelled 1,350,000 then-issued and outstanding shares of our common stock. These shares were surrendered as follows: Jenson Services, Inc., which then owned 2,480,500 pre-reverse split shares (approximately 354,290 post-reverse split shares) (or approximately 68% of our then-outstanding voting securities) delivered 375,000 of its pre-reverse split shares (approximately 53,572 post-reverse split shares) for cancellation; James P. Doolin, which then owned 475,000 pre-reverse split shares (approximately 67,858 post-reverse split shares) (or approximately 13% of our then-outstanding voting securities) delivered 475,000 pre-reverse split shares (approximately 67,858 post-reverse split shares) for cancellation; and his sister, Alycia Anthony, which then owned 500,000 pre-reverse split shares (approximately 71,429 post-reverse split shares (or approximately 14% of our then-outstanding voting securities) delivered 500,000 pre-reverse split shares (approximately 71,429 post-reverse split shares) for cancellation. All of these cancelled shares were returned to the status of authorized and unissued shares. No consideration was given by us in the cancellation of these shares. The effect of the share cancellations was to reduce the carrying par value of shares surrendered and a corresponding increase to additional paid-in capital.

80

 
Under the terms of the stock purchase agreement, on May 3, 2007, the then-current board of directors of Energroup declared a special cash distribution of $0.1219 per share to its shareholders of record as of May 17, 2007, the record date for the special cash distribution. Neither HFI or the shares surrendered by Jenson Services or James P. Doolin or Alycia Anthony participated in the special cash distribution. The special cash distribution was paid on May 29, 2007, to shareholders of record on the record date, subject to the closing of the stock purchase agreement. The special cash distribution was paid to the holders of an aggregate 2,297,421 pre-reverse split shares of our common stock, after giving effect to the cancellation of 1,350,000 pre-reverse split shares discussed above, which resulted in a total cash distribution of approximately $280,000. The special cash distribution was a condition of the closing of the stock purchase agreement.

Except for the special cash distribution described above, we have never paid cash dividends on our common stock. Since the reverse take-over transaction on December 31, 2007, we have not declared or paid any dividends.

We intend to keep future earnings, if any, to finance the expansion of our business, and we do not anticipate that any cash dividends will be paid in the foreseeable future. Our future payment of dividends will depend on our earnings, capital requirements, expansion plans, financial condition and other relevant factors that our board of directors may deem relevant. Our retained earnings deficit currently limits our ability to pay dividends.
 
SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE

Prior to this offering, there has been little or no active market for our common stock. Future sales of substantial amounts of common stock in the public market could adversely affect prevailing market prices. Furthermore, because the trading volume of our shares is relatively low, sales of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market after the restrictions lapse could adversely affect the prevailing market price or our shares, and may limit our ability to raise equity capital in the future. When a registration statement is declared effective by the SEC (referred to as the “effective date”) covering the underlying shares of common stock, these shares, when issued, will be freely tradable without restriction under the Securities Act, unless purchased by our “affiliates” as that term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act (generally, officers, directors or 10% stockholders). See “Description of Securities - Registration Rights” for additional information.
 
Assuming full registration of the shares covered by this prospectus, management estimates that approximately 13.4 million shares (or approximately 64%) of our common stock outstanding will be “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act. Restricted securities may be sold in the public market only if registered or if they qualify for an exemption from registration under Rules 144, 144(k) or 701 promulgated under the Securities Act, which are summarized below. Sales of the restricted securities in the public market, or the availability of such shares for sale, could adversely affect the market price of the common stock.
 
81

 
In general, under Rule 144 as currently in effect, a person (or persons whose shares are aggregated) who has beneficially owned restricted shares of our Company for at least six months would be entitled to sell such shares without regard to volume limitations, manner of sale restrictions or Form 144 notice requirements, so long as current public information about us is available. Under Rule 144(k), a person who is not deemed to have been an affiliate of us at any time during the three months preceding a sale, and who has beneficially owned the shares proposed to be sold for at least one year, is entitled to sell such shares even if current public information about us is not available. Any person who is deemed to be an affiliate of us can begin selling restricted shares of our Company after six months, subject to volume limitations, manner of sale restrictions and current public information requirements. Our affiliates will not have to file a Form 144 unless the transaction is for at least 5,000 shares or $50,000.
 
Beginning 90 days after the effective date of our registration statement for the shares in this prospectus, any employee, officer or director of or consultant to us who purchases shares pursuant to a written compensatory plan or contract may be entitled to rely on the resale provisions of Rule 701 (if such plans are instituted and any plan shares are outstanding at that time). Rule 701 permits affiliates to sell their Rule 701 shares under Rule 144 without complying with the holding period requirements of Rule 144. Rule 701 further provides that non-affiliates may sell such shares in reliance on Rule 144 without having to comply with the holding period, public information, volume limitation or notice provisions of Rule 144. In addition, we may in the future, file registration statements under the Securities Act to register shares to be issued pursuant to employee benefit plans. As a result, any options exercised under any benefit plans after the effectiveness of such registration statement will also be freely tradable in the public market, except that shares held by affiliates will still be subject to the volume limitation, manner of sale, notice and public information requirements of Rule 144 unless otherwise resalable under Rule 701. As of September 30, 2007, we had no outstanding options.
 
CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON
ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

Prior to our reverse take-over transaction and $17 million financing, when we were a pubic reporting shell company, MantylaMCREYNOLDS LLC (“McReynolds”) served as our auditor of record. McReynolds resigned as the independent auditor of Energroup effective February 6, 2008. McReynolds served as Energroup’s independent auditors for the fiscal years ended December 31, 1999 thru December 31, 2006, and the interim periods during 2007.

McReynolds’ report on our financial statements for the two most recent fiscal years did not contain any adverse opinions or disclaimers of opinion, and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles, except for a going concern opinion expressing substantial doubt about the ability of Energroup to continue as a going concern with respect to Energroup in 2006, during which time Energroup was a “shell company” under Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act.

During our two most recent fiscal years and the interim periods through February 6, 2008, there were no disagreements with McReynolds on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements if not resolved to the satisfaction of McReynolds would have caused them to make reference to this subject matter of the disagreements in connection with their report, nor were there any “reportable events” as such term is described in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-B.

Also on February 6, 2008, we engaged Samuel H. Wong & Co., LLP (“Wong & Co.”) as our outside independent accounting firm. This action has also been approved by our board of directors. During our two most recent fiscal years and any subsequent interim period prior to the engagement of Wong & Co., neither we nor anyone on our behalf consulted with Wong & Co., regarding either (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either contemplated or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on our financial statements, or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a “disagreement” or a “reportable event.”
 
LEGAL MATTERS
 
Richardson & Patel LLP has rendered an opinion regarding the legality of the issuance of the shares of common stock being registered in this prospectus.

EXPERTS

Our consolidated financial statements for each of the twelve month periods ending December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004 have been audited by our independent auditor, Samuel H. Wong & Co., LLP, certified public accountants registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, which firm also reviewed our interim consolidated financial statements for the nine months ending September 30, 2007, as set forth in their report. We have included our consolidated financial statements in this prospectus in reliance on the report of the above-named independent auditor, given upon their authority as experts in accounting and auditing.
 
DISCLOSURE OF COMMISSION POSITION OF INDEMNIFICATION
FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted for our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the foregoing provisions or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

Report of Registered Independent Public Accounting Firm
 
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Precious Sheen Investments Ltd. as of December 31, 2006, 2005, and 2004 and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Precious Sheen Investments Ltd. as of December 31, 2006, 2005, and 2004, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
As of and for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005, and 2004

1.
The Company and Principal Business Activities

Energroup Holdings Corporation (the “Company”) (OTCBB: EGHC) is a holding company incorporated in the state of Nevada in the United States of America whose primary business operations are conducted through its three operating subsidiaries: (1) Dalian Chuming Processed Foods Company Ltd., (the “Foods Company”) (2) Dalian Chuming Slaughter and Packaging Pork Company Ltd. (the “Meat Company”), and (3) Dalian Chuming Sales Company Ltd. (the “Sales Company”), which are incorporated in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”). The Company is headquartered in the City of Dalian, Liaoning Province of China.

The three operating subsidiaries were spun-off constituents of former parent company, Dalian Chuming Group Co. Ltd. The Company indirectly holds the three operating subsidiary companies through its wholly owned intermediary subsidiaries: (A) Precious Sheen Investments Limited (“PSI”), a British Virgin Islands corporation, and (B) Dalian Chuming Precious Sheen Investments Consulting Co., Ltd., (“Chuming”), a wholly foreign owned enterprise incorporated in the PRC.

Dalian Precious Sheen Investments Consulting Co., Ltd. (“Chuming”) is an intermediary holding company established in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC” or “China”) formed for the purpose of providing a group structure to enhance the viable capacity of its three PRC operating subsidiaries.

The Company’s primary business activities are the production and packing of fresh pork and also production of processed meat products for distribution and sale to clients throughout the PRC.

Corporate Reorganization

PRC law currently has limits on foreign ownership of certain companies. To enable Chuming to raise equity capital from investors outside of China, it established an offshore holding company by incorporating Precious Sheen Investments Limited in the British Virgin Islands (“PSI”) in May 2007. On September 26, 2007, Chuming entered into share transfer agreements with Dalian Chuming Group Co., Ltd., under which Dalian Chuming Group Co., Ltd. agreed to transfer ownership of three operating subsidiaries (collectively known as “Chuming Operating Subsidiaries”) to Chuming. On October 23, 2007, Chuming completed all required registrations to complete the share transfer, and became the 100% owner of the Chuming Operating Subsidiaries. On November 14, 2007 the Dalian Commerce Bureau approved the transfer of Dalian Chuming Group Co., Ltd.’s 68% interest in Chuming to PSI, and upon this transfer, Chuming became a wholly foreign owned enterprise, with PSI as the 100% owner of Chuming (including its subsidiaries). On December 13, 2007, the PRC government authorities issued Chuming a business license formally recognizing it as a wholly foreign owned enterprise, of which PSI is the sole shareholder.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
As of and for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005, and 2004

The following is a description of the Chuming Operating Subsidiaries: -

A. Dalian Chuming Slaughter and Packaging Pork Company Ltd., whose primary business activity is acquiring, slaughtering, and packaging of pork and cattle;

B. Dalian Chuming Processed Foods Company Ltd., whose primary business activity is the processing of raw and cooked meat products; and

C. Dalian Chuming Sales Company Ltd., which is responsible for Chuming’s sales, marketing, and distribution operations.

Share Exchange Transaction

On December 31, 2007, the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of PSI in exchange for the issuance of 16,850,000 restricted shares of our common stock to the shareholders of PSI, which represented approximately 97.55% of the then-issued and outstanding common stock of the Company (excluding the shares issued in the Financing). As a result of that transaction, PSI became our wholly owned subsidiary and we acquired the business and operations of the three operation subsidiaries.

The share exchange transaction has been accounted for as a recapitalization of PSI where the Company (the legal acquirer) is considered the accounting acquiree and PSI (the legal acquiree) is considered the accounting acquirer. As a result of this transaction, the Company is deemed to be a continuation of the business of PSI.

Accordingly, the financial data included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for all periods prior to December 31, 2007 is that of the accounting acquirer (PSI). The historical stockholders’ equity of the accounting acquirer prior to the share exchange has been retroactively restated as if the share exchange transaction occurred as of the beginning of the first period presented.

The consolidation of these operating subsidiaries into a newly formed holding company i.e. “the Company” is permitted by United States GAAP: ARB51 paragraph 22 and 23.

 
(C)
Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management makes these estimates using the best information available at the time the estimates are made; however, actual results could differ materially from these estimates.

 
(D)
Cash Equivalents

For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid equity or debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

 
(E)
Accounts Receivable

The Company extends unsecured, non interest bearing credit to its customers; accordingly, the Company carries an allowance for doubtful accounts, which is an estimate, made by management. Management makes its estimate based on prior experience rates and assessment of specific outstanding customer balances. Management must approve credit extended to new customers who have met the criteria of the Company’s credit policy.

 
(F)
Inventory Carrying Value

Inventory, consisting of raw materials in the form of livestock, work in progress, and finished products, is stated at the lower of cost or market value. Finished products are comprised of direct materials, direct labor and an appropriate proportion of overhead. Periodic evaluation is made by management to identify if inventory needs to be written down because of damage, or spoilage. Cost is computed using the weighted average method.

(G)
Advances to Suppliers

Advances to suppliers represent the cash paid in advance for purchasing raw materials. The advances to suppliers are interest free and unsecured.

 
(H)
Property, Plant, and Equipment

Property, Plant, and Equipment are stated at cost. Repairs and maintenance to these assets are charged to expense as incurred; major improvements enhancing the function and/or useful life are capitalized. When items are sold or retired, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gains or losses arising from such transactions are recognized.

Construction in progress represents the direct costs of design, acquisition, and construction of buildings, building improvements and land improvements. Capitalization of these costs ceases when substantially all activities necessary to prepare the assets for their intended use are completed. At such point, construction in progress is transferred to its respective asset classification. No depreciation is provided until it is completed and ready for intended use.

   
Property and equipment are depreciated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful life with a 5% salvage value. Their useful lives are as follows: -

Fixed Asset Classification

(J)
Construction in Progress

Construction in progress represents the direct costs of design, acquisition, and construction of: buildings, building improvements, and land improvements. These costs are capitalized in the Construction-in-Progress account until substantially all activities necessary to prepare the assets for their intended use are completed. At such point, the Construction-in-Progress account is closed and the capitalized costs are transferred to their appropriate asset classification. No depreciation is provided until the assets are completed and ready for their intended use.
 
 
(J)
 Accounting for Impairment of Assets

   
The Company reviews the recoverability of its long-lived assets, such as property and equipment, when events or changes in circumstances occur that indicate the carrying value of the asset group may not be recoverable. The assessment of possible impairment is based on the Company’s ability to recover the carrying value of the asset from the expected future cash flows, undiscounted and without interest charges, of the related operations. If these cash flows are less than the carrying value of such assets, an impairment loss is recognized for the difference between estimated fair value and carrying value. The measurement of impairment requires management to estimate future cash flows and the fair value of long-lived assets.
 
 
(K) 
Statutory Reserve
 
Statutory reserve refer to the amount appropriated from the net income in accordance with laws or regulations, which can be used to recover losses and increase capital, as approved, and, are to be used to expand production or operations. PRC laws prescribe that an enterprise operating at a profit, must appropriate, on an annual basis, from its earnings, an amount to the statutory reserve to be used for future company development. Such an appropriation is made until the reserve reaches a maximum equalling 50% of the enterprise’s capital.
 
 
(L) 
Other Comprehensive Income

Comprehensive income is defined to include all changes in equity except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. Among other disclosures, all items that are required to be recognized under current accounting standards as components of comprehensive income are required to be reported in a financial statement that is presented with the same prominence as other financial statements. The Company’s current component of other comprehensive income is the foreign currency translation adjustment.

Income Taxes
 
The Company accounts for income tax using an asset and liability approach and allows for recognition of deferred tax benefits in future years. Under the asset and liability approach, deferred taxes are provided for the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. A valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not these items will either expire before the Company is able to realize their benefits, or that future realization is uncertain.

The Company is operating in the PRC, and in accordance with the relevant tax laws and regulations of PRC, the corporation income tax rate is 33%.
 
 
(R)
Economic and Political Risks

(S)
Foreign Currency Translation

The Company maintains its financial statements in the functional currency. The functional currency of the Company is the Renminbi (RMB). Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at rates of exchange prevailing at the balance sheet dates. Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchanges rates prevailing at the dates of the transaction. Exchange gains or losses arising from foreign currency transactions are included in the determination of net income for the respective periods.

For financial reporting purposes, the financial statements of the Company which are prepared using the functional currency have been translated into United States dollars. Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rates at the balance sheet dates and revenue and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates and stockholders’ equity is translated at historical exchange rates. Any translation adjustments resulting are not included in determining net income but are included in foreign exchange adjustment to other comprehensive income, a component of stockholders’ equity.

(T)
Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the sum of the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding and dilutive potential ordinary shares during the years. During the years ended 2004, 2005, and 2006, no dilutive potential ordinary shares were issued.

The Company computes earnings per share (“EPS”) in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, “Earnings per share” (“SFAS No. 128”), and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 98 (“SAB 98”). SFAS No. 128 requires companies with complex capital structures to present basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is measured as the income or loss available to common shareholders divided by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is similar to basic EPS but presents the dilutive effect on a per share basis of potential common shares (e.g., convertible securities, options, and warrants) as if they had been converted at the beginning of the periods presented, or issuance date, if later. Potential common shares that have an anti-dilutive effect (i.e., those that increase income per share or decrease loss per share) are excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS.

 Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2005, the FASB issued a SFAS 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections” to replace APB Opinion No. 20, “Accounting Changes” and SFAS 3, “Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements” requiring retrospective application to prior periods financial statements of changes in accounting principle, unless it is impracticable to determine either the period-specific effects or the cumulative effect of the change. When it is impracticable to determine the period-specific effects of an accounting change on one or more individual prior periods presented, SFAS 154 requires the new accounting principle be applied to the balances of assets and liabilities as of the beginning of the earliest period for which retrospective application is practicable and that a corresponding adjustment be made to the opening balance of retained earnings (or other appropriate components of equity or net assets in the statement of financial position) for that period rather than being reported in an income statement. When it is impracticable to determine the cumulative effect of applying a change in accounting principle to all prior periods, SFAS 154 requires that the new accounting principle be applied as if it were adopted prospectively from the earliest date practicable. The effective date for this statement is for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2005.

In February 2006, the FASB issued a SFAS 155, “Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments” to amend FASB Statements No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, and No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities. This statement permits fair value remeasurement for any hybrid financial instrument that contains an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation and eliminate the prohibition on a qualifying special-purpose entity from holding a derivative financial instrument that pertains to a beneficial interest other than another derivative financial instrument. This statement is effective for all financial instruments acquired or issued after the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006.

In July 2006, the FASB issued FIN 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109, which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in tax positions. This Interpretation requires that the Company recognizes in its consolidated financial statements the impact of a tax position if that position is more likely than not of being sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position. The provisions of FIN 48 are effective for the Company on January 1, 2007, with the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle, if any, recorded as an adjustment to opening retained earnings.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 157, Fair Value Measurements, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements, where fair value is the relevant measurement attribute. The standard does not require any new fair value measurements. SFAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal year beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years.

In September 2006, the SEC issued SAB No. 108, which provides guidance on the process of quantifying financial statement misstatements. In SAB No. 108, the SEC staff establishes an approach that requires quantification of financial statement errors, under both the iron-curtain and the roll-over methods, based on the effects of the error on each of the Company’s financial statements and the related financial statement disclosures. SAB No.108 is generally effective for annual financial statements in the first fiscal year ending after November 15, 2006. The transition provisions of SAB No. 108 permits existing public companies to record the cumulative effect in the first year ending after November 15, 2006 by recording correcting adjustments to the carrying values of assets and liabilities as of the beginning of that year with the offsetting adjustment recorded to the opening balance of retained earnings.

In February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities—Including an Amendment of SFAS 115 (SFAS No. 159), which allows for the option to measure financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected are reported in earnings. The objective of SFAS 159 is to provide opportunities to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply hedge accounting provisions. SFAS 159 also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between companies that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. This statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of SFAS No. 159 on our consolidated financial statements.

The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of the above standards will have a material impact on these consolidated financial statements.

Bank Loans From Group Leader

The Company obtained a loan of $20,466,901 (RMB 160,000,000) from its group leader, Dalian Chuming Group Co., Ltd; which in turn, obtained these funds in a joint loan commitment from both China Development Bank and Shenzhen Development Bank (“Banks”) via a collateralized loan. Dalian Chuming Group Co., Ltd. collateralized the loan by purchasing a bond from China Export and Credit Insurance Corporation (“Bond Issuer”). The bond guarantees to the Banks the entire principal and accrued interest of the loan. The cost of the bond is RMB 1,000,000 annually, or in USD: $120,668, 121,902, and 125,284 for the years 2004, 2005, and 2006, respectively, which was paid by the Company. The loan carries a fixed interest of 5.76% per annum. The Company pledged both land use rights and buildings to the Bond Issuer. The Company pursued a loan from its group leader as the financing solution of choice because the Company is in lack of tangible assets for collateral as well as favorable credit history to directly establish credit facility with the bank.

The operating subsidiary, Meat Union, has been given special tax-free status by the PRC government because of the Company standing as leader in its industry in Dalian; therefore, no provision for income tax in the PRC was made for years 2006, 2005, and 2004.

The Company’s operating subsidiary, Food, has provided provisions for income taxes in years 2006, 2005, and 2004 of $400,605, $338,214, and $0, respectively.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
As of and for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005, and 2004
 
The Company’s operating subsidiary, Sale, has not provided provisions for income taxes in years 2006, 2005, and 2004 as it has incurred operating losses for those respective years.

After adjusting for special tax-free status and net operating loss, the consolidated taxable earnings were determined, and the results were as follows: -

i.   2006
   
Tax benefit
   
1,609
 
ii.  2005
   
Tax expense
   
(191,284
)
iii.  2004
   
Tax benefit
   
66,403
 
 
At December 31, 2006, 2005, and 2004, the company’s operations were conducted entirely in the PRC. The Company at that point was not incorporated or governed by United States tax laws. Accordingly, no provision for income tax in the United States was made.
 
13.
Commitments

It is company policy to develop plant facilities based on availability of cash resources without incurring capital commitments. Therefore, the Company did not have any capital commitments existing at December 31, 2006.

There were not any severance packages provided to key management personnel that resigned their positions. The Company has the right to terminate employment for cause at any time.

14.

15.
Concentration of Risk

 
(A)
Demand Risk

The Company had concentrations of risk in demand for its products. Three customers accounted for 48.88% of the Company’s sales revenue in 2005, while four customers accounted for 67.75% of Company’s sales in 2006.

 
(B)
Supply Risk

The Company is subject to concentration of supply shortage risk because it purchases its materials for resale from a few select vendors. The Company’s availability of supply is correlated with the few select vendors’ ability to meet the market demand.

Report of Registered Independent Public Accounting Firm
 
We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Energroup Holdings Corporation as of September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2007. These interim consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.

We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying interim consolidated financial statements for them to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

The Company and Principal Business Activities

Energroup Holdings Corporation (the “Company”) (OTCBB: EGHC) is a holding company incorporated in the state of Nevada in the United States of America whose primary business operations are conducted through its three operating subsidiaries: (1) Dalian Chuming Processed Foods Company Ltd., (the “Foods Company”) (2) Dalian Chuming Slaughter and Packaging Pork Company Ltd. (the “Meat Company”), and (3) Dalian Chuming Sales Company Ltd. (the “Sales Company”), which are incorporated in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”). The Company is headquartered in the City of Dalian, Liaoning Province of China.

The three operating subsidiaries were spun-off constituents of former parent company, Dalian Chuming Group Co. Ltd. The Company indirectly holds the three operating subsidiary companies through its wholly owned intermediary subsidiaries: (A) Precious Sheen Investments Limited (“PSI”), a British Virgin Islands corporation, and (B) Dalian Chuming Precious Sheen Investments Consulting Co., Ltd., (“Chuming”), a wholly foreign owned enterprise incorporated in the PRC.

Dalian Precious Sheen Investments Consulting Co., Ltd. (“Chuming”) is an intermediary holding company established in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC” or “China”) formed for the purpose of providing a group structure to enhance the viable capacity of its three PRC operating subsidiaries.

The Company’s primary business activities are the production and packing of fresh pork and also production of processed meat products for distribution and sale to clients throughout the PRC.

Corporate Reorganization

PRC law currently has limits on foreign ownership of certain companies. To enable Chuming to raise equity capital from investors outside of China, it established an offshore holding company by incorporating Precious Sheen Investments Limited in the British Virgin Islands (“PSI”) in May 2007. On September 26, 2007, Chuming entered into share transfer agreements with Dalian Chuming Group Co., Ltd., under which Dalian Chuming Group Co., Ltd. agreed to transfer ownership of three operating subsidiaries (collectively known as “Chuming Operating Subsidiaries”) to Chuming. On October 23, 2007, Chuming completed all required registrations to complete the share transfer, and became the 100% owner of the Chuming Operating Subsidiaries. On November 14, 2007 the Dalian Commerce Bureau approved the transfer of Dalian Chuming Group Co., Ltd.’s 68% interest in Chuming to PSI, and upon this transfer, Chuming became a wholly foreign owned enterprise, with PSI as the 100% owner of Chuming (including its subsidiaries). On December 13, 2007, the PRC government authorities issued Chuming a business license formally recognizing it as a wholly foreign owned enterprise, of which PSI is the sole shareholder.

The following is a description of the Chuming Operating Subsidiaries: -

A. Dalian Chuming Slaughter and Packaging Pork Company Ltd., whose primary business activity is acquiring, slaughtering, and packaging of pork and cattle;

B. Dalian Chuming Processed Foods Company Ltd., whose primary business activity is the processing of raw and cooked meat products; and

C. Dalian Chuming Sales Company Ltd., which is responsible for Chuming’s sales, marketing, and distribution operations.

Share Exchange Transaction

On December 31, 2007, the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of PSI in exchange for the issuance of 16,850,000 restricted shares of our common stock to the shareholders of PSI, which represented approximately 97.55% of the then-issued and outstanding common stock of the Company (excluding the shares issued in the Financing). As a result of that transaction, PSI became our wholly owned subsidiary and we acquired the business and operations of the three operation subsidiaries.

The share exchange transaction has been accounted for as a recapitalization of PSI where the Company (the legal acquirer) is considered the accounting acquiree and PSI (the legal acquiree) is considered the accounting acquirer. As a result of this transaction, the Company is deemed to be a continuation of the business of PSI.

Accordingly, the financial data included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for all periods prior to December 31, 2007 is that of the accounting acquirer (PSI). The historical stockholders’ equity of the accounting acquirer prior to the share exchange has been retroactively restated as if the share exchange transaction occurred as of the beginning of the first period presented.

Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management makes these estimates using the best information available at the time the estimates are made; however, actual results could differ materially from these estimates.

 
(D)
Cash Equivalents

For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid equity or debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

 
(E)
Accounts Receivable

The Company extends unsecured, non interest bearing credit to its customers; accordingly, the Company carries an allowance for doubtful accounts, which is an estimate, made by management. Management makes its estimate based on prior experience rates and assessment of specific outstanding customer balances.

(F)
Inventory Carrying Value

Inventory, consisting of raw materials in the form of livestock, work in progress, and finished products, is stated at the lower of cost or market value. Finished products are comprised of direct materials, direct labor and an appropriate proportion of overhead. Periodic evaluation is made by management to identify if inventory needs to be written down because of damage, or spoilage. Cost is computed using the weighted average method.

 
(G)
Advances to Suppliers

Advances to suppliers represent the cash paid in advance for purchasing raw materials. The advances to suppliers are interest free and unsecured.
 
 
(H)
Property, Plant, and Equipment

Property, Plant, and Equipment are stated at cost. Repairs and maintenance to these assets are charged to expense as incurred; major improvements enhancing the function and/or useful life are capitalized. When items are sold or retired, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gains or losses arising from such transactions are recognized.

Construction in progress represents the direct costs of design, acquisition, and construction of buildings, building improvements and land improvements. Capitalization of these costs ceases when substantially all activities necessary to prepare the assets for their intended use are completed. At such point, construction in progress is transferred to its respective asset classification. No depreciation is provided until it is completed and ready for intended use.

   
Property and equipment are depreciated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful life with a 5% salvage value. Their useful lives are as follows: -

(I)
Land Use Rights

Land Use Rights are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. Amortization is provided over its useful life, using the straight-line method. The useful life of the land use right is 50 years.

(J)
Accounting for Impairment of Assets

   
The Company reviews the recoverability of its long-lived assets, such as property and equipment, when events or changes in circumstances occur that indicate the carrying value of the asset group may not be recoverable. The assessment of possible impairment is based on the Company’s ability to recover the carrying value of the asset from the expected future cash flows, undiscounted and without interest charges, of the related operations. If these cash flows are less than the carrying value of such assets, an impairment loss is recognized for the difference between estimated fair value and carrying value. The measurement of impairment requires management to estimate future cash flows and the fair value of long-lived assets.

(K)
Statutory Reserve

Statutory reserve refer to the amount appropriated from the net income in accordance with laws or regulations, which can be used to recover losses and increase capital, as approved, and, are to be used to expand production or operations. PRC laws prescribe that an enterprise operating at a profit, must appropriate, on an annual basis, from its earnings, an amount to the statutory reserve to be used for future company development. Such an appropriation is made until the reserve reaches a maximum equalling 50% of the enterprise’s capital.

(L)
Other Comprehensive Income

Comprehensive income is defined to include all changes in equity except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. Among other disclosures, all items that are required to be recognized under current accounting standards as components of comprehensive income are required to be reported in a financial statement that is presented with the same prominence as other financial statements. The Company’s current component of other comprehensive income is the foreign currency translation adjustment.

(M)
Recognition of Revenue

Revenue from the sale of pork products, etc., is recognized on the transfer of risks and rewards of ownership, which generally coincides with the time when the goods are delivered to customers and the title has passed.

(N)
Shipping and handling

All shipping and handling are expensed as incurred and are included as a component of cost of sales.

(O)
Advertising Expense

Costs related to advertising and promotion expenditures are expensed as incurred during the year.

(P)
Retirement Benefits

Retirement benefits in the form of contributions under defined contribution retirement plans to the relevant authorities are charged to the statement of operations as incurred.

(Q)
Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income tax using an asset and liability approach and allows for recognition of deferred tax benefits in future years. Under the asset and liability approach, deferred taxes are provided for the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. A valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not these items will either expire before the Company is able to realize their benefits, or that future realization is uncertain.

The Company is operating in the PRC, and in accordance with the relevant tax laws and regulations of PRC, the corporation income tax rate is 33%.
 
 
(R)
Economic and Political Risks

The Company’s operations are conducted 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 economy.

 
(S)
Foreign Currency Translation

The Company maintains its financial statements in the functional currency. The functional currency of the Company is the Renminbi (RMB). Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at rates of exchange prevailing at the balance sheet dates. Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchanges rates prevailing at the dates of the transaction. Exchange gains or losses arising from foreign currency transactions are included in the determination of net income for the respective periods.

Energroup Holdings Corporation
Unaudited Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
As of and for the Nine Months ended September 30, 2007
 
For financial reporting purposes, the financial statements of the Company which are prepared using the functional currency have been translated into United States dollars. Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rates at the balance sheet dates and revenue and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates and stockholders’ equity is translated at historical exchange rates. Any translation adjustments resulting are not included in determining net income but are included in foreign exchange adjustment to other comprehensive income, a component of stockholders’ equity.
 
Exchange Rates
 
 9/30/2007
 
Year end RMB : US$ exchange rate
   
7.5176
 
Average yearly RMB : US$ exchange rate
   
7.67576
 

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 US$ at the rates used in translation.

 
(T)
Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the sum of the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding and dilutive potential ordinary shares during the years. During the reporting periods, no dilutive potential ordinary shares were issued.

The Company computes earnings per share (“EPS”) in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, “Earnings per share” (“SFAS No. 128”), and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 98 (“SAB 98”). SFAS No. 128 requires companies with complex capital structures to present basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is measured as the income or loss available to common shareholders divided by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is similar to basic EPS but presents the dilutive effect on a per share basis of potential common shares (e.g., convertible securities, options, and warrants) as if they had been converted at the beginning of the periods presented, or issuance date, if later. Potential common shares that have an anti-dilutive effect (i.e., those that increase income per share or decrease loss per share) are excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
In February 2006, the FASB issued a SFAS 155, “Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments” to amend FASB Statements No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, and No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities. This statement permits fair value remeasurement for any hybrid financial instrument that contains an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation and eliminate the prohibition on a qualifying special-purpose entity from holding a derivative financial instrument that pertains to a beneficial interest other than another derivative financial instrument. This statement is effective for all financial instruments acquired or issued after the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006.

In July 2006, the FASB issued FIN 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109, which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in tax positions. This Interpretation requires that the Company recognizes in its consolidated financial statements the impact of a tax position if that position is more likely than not of being sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position. The provisions of FIN 48 are effective for the Company on January 1, 2007, with the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle, if any, recorded as an adjustment to opening retained earnings.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 157, Fair Value Measurements, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements, where fair value is the relevant measurement attribute. The standard does not require any new fair value measurements. SFAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal year beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years.

In September 2006, the SEC issued SAB No. 108, which provides guidance on the process of quantifying financial statement misstatements. In SAB No. 108, the SEC staff establishes an approach that requires quantification of financial statement errors, under both the iron-curtain and the roll-over methods, based on the effects of the error on each of the Company’s financial statements and the related financial statement disclosures. SAB No.108 is generally effective for annual financial statements in the first fiscal year ending after November 15, 2006. The transition provisions of SAB No. 108 permits existing public companies to record the cumulative effect in the first year ending after November 15, 2006 by recording correcting adjustments to the carrying values of assets and liabilities as of the beginning of that year with the offsetting adjustment recorded to the opening balance of retained earnings.

In February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities—Including an Amendment of SFAS 115 (SFAS No. 159), which allows for the option to measure financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected are reported in earnings. The objective of SFAS 159 is to provide opportunities to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply hedge accounting provisions. SFAS 159 also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between companies that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. This statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of SFAS No. 159 on our consolidated financial statements.

The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of the above standards will have a material impact on these consolidated financial statements.

Bank Loans From Group Leader

As of September 30, 2007, outstanding bank loans and notes were $18,622,965 (12/31/2006: $17,908,539). The Company obtained a loan of $20,466,901 (RMB 160,000,000) from, Dalian Chuming Group Co., Ltd; which in turn, obtained these funds in a joint loan commitment from both China Development Bank and Shenzhen Development Bank (“Banks”) via a collateralized loan. Dalian Chuming Group Co., Ltd. collateralized the loan by purchasing a bond from China Export and Credit Insurance Corporation (“Bond Issuer”). The bond guarantees to the Banks the entire principal and accrued interest of the loan. The cost of the bond is RMB 1,000,000 annually, or in USD: $120,668, 121,902, and 125,284 for the years 2004, 2005, and 2006, respectively, which was paid by the Company. The loan carries a fixed interest of 5.76% per annum. The Company pledged both land use rights and buildings to the Bond Issuer. The Company pursued a loan from Dalian Chuming Group Co., Ltd as the financing solution of choice because the Company lacks tangible assets for collateral as well as favorable credit history to directly establish credit facility with the bank.

As of and for the Nine Months ended September 30, 2007
 
As a result of the reverse take-over transaction, PSI’s Shareholders became Energroup’s controlling shareholders and PSI became Energroup’s wholly-owned subsidiary. As a result of PSI becoming Energroup’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Energroup acquired the business and operations of Chuming and the Chuming Operating Subsidiaries.

Under the Exchange Agreement, Energroup completed the acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding shares of PSI through the issuance of 16,850,000 restricted shares of common stock of Energroup to PSI’s Shareholders. Immediately prior to the Exchange Agreement transaction, the Company had 422,756 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. Immediately after the issuance of the shares to PSI’s Shareholders, the Company had 17,272,756 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. The 422,756 shares of PSI were cancelled and 17,272,756 shares of Energroup were issued to reflect this reverse take-over transaction.

Concurrently with the Exchange Agreement, Energroup also entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) pursuant to which Energroup agreed to issue and sell 3,863,635 shares of its common stock to ten accredited investors for an aggregate purchase price of $17,000,000 or $4.40 per share (the “Financing”). The closing of the Financing coincided with the Closing of the reverse take-over transaction.

ITEM 14. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

Indemnification Under Nevada Law

Nevada law generally permits us to indemnify our directors, officers and employees. Pursuant to the provisions of Nevada Revised Statutes 78.7502, a corporation may indemnify its directors, officers and employees as follows:

(a)  A corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any action, except an action by or in the right of the corporation, by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation, against expenses, actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the action, suit or proceeding if he: (a) is not liable for breach of his fiduciary duties as a director or officer pursuant to Nevada Revised Statutes 78.138; or (b) acted in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.
 
(b)  A corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any action by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor, by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation against expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense or settlement of the action or suit if he: (a) is not liable for breach of his fiduciary duties pursuant to Nevada Revised Statutes 78.138; or (b) acted in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation. Indemnification may not be made for any claim, issue or matter as to which such a person has been adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction, after exhaustion of all appeals therefrom, to be liable to the corporation or for amounts paid in settlement to the corporation, unless and only to the extent that the court in which the action or suit was brought or other court of competent jurisdiction determines upon application that in view of all the circumstances of the case, the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses as the court deems proper.
 
II-1

 
(c) To the extent that a director, officer, employee or agent of a corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, the corporation shall indemnify him against expenses, including attorneys’ fees, actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense.

Charter Provisions and Other Arrangements of the Registrant

Article VII of our articles of incorporation provides for the indemnification of any and all persons who serve as our director or officer to the fullest extent permitted under Nevada law. We do not currently carry directors’ and officers’ liability insurance covering our directors and officers, however, we are considering obtaining such insurance coverage from an internationally recognized underwriter with terms of coverage appropriate for a company of our size and nature.
 
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers, or persons controlling the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Company has been informed that, in the opinion of the Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.
 
ITEM 15. RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES
 
The following is a summary of our transactions during the last three years involving sales of our securities that were not registered under the Securities Act:

On December 31, 2007, we entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) with Precious Sheen Investments Limited, a British Virgin Islands company (“PSI”) and all of the shareholders of PSI’s issued and outstanding share capital (the “PSI Shareholders”). Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, we agreed to issue 16,850,000 shares of our common stock to the PSI Shareholders in exchange for 100% of the capital stock of PSI. The issuance of the common stock to the PSI Shareholders pursuant to the Exchange Agreement was exempt from registration under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(2) and Regulation D thereof. We made this determination based on the representations of the PSI Shareholders which included, in pertinent part, that such shareholders were “accredited investors” within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act, and that such shareholders were acquiring our common stock, for investment purposes for their own respective accounts and not as nominees or agents, and not with a view to the resale or distribution thereof, and that each member understood that the shares of our common stock may not be sold or otherwise disposed of without registration under the Securities Act or an applicable exemption therefrom.

On December 31, 2007, in connection with the Exchange Agreement, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) pursuant to which we agreed to issue and sell 3,863,635 shares of our common stock to fifteen accredited investors for an aggregate purchase price of $17,000,000, or $4.40 per share (the “Financing”). The issuance of the common stock to the fifteen investors pursuant to the Purchase Agreement was exempt from registration under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(2) and Regulation D thereof. We made this determination based on the representations of the fifteen investors which included, in pertinent part, that such investors were “accredited investors” within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act, and that such investors were acquiring our common stock, for investment purposes for their own respective accounts and not as nominees or agents, and not with a view to the resale or distribution thereof, and that each member understood that the shares of our common stock may not be sold or otherwise disposed of without registration under the Securities Act or an applicable exemption therefrom.
 
II-2


On May 3, 2007, prior to the reverse take-over transaction, Energroup, along with its then-current directors and executive officers, entered into a stock purchase agreement with Halter Financial Investments, L.P., a Texas limited partnership (“HFI”), pursuant to which Energroup agreed to sell to HFI 11,200,000 pre-reverse split shares (approximately 1,600,000 post-reverse split shares) of unregistered, restricted common stock for $350,000 cash. This transaction closed on May 22, 2007. The issuance of the common stock to HFI pursuant to the stock purchase agreement was exempt from registration under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(2) and/or Regulation D thereof. Energroup made this determination based on the representations of the HFI in the stock purchase agreement which included, in pertinent part, that such HFI was an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act, and that such shareholder was acquiring our common stock, for investment purposes for their own respective accounts and not as nominees or agents, and not with a view to the resale or distribution thereof, and that each member understood that the shares of our common stock may not be sold or otherwise disposed of without registration under the Securities Act or an applicable exemption therefrom.

On or about March 12, 2007, Energroup authorized the issuance of 5,462 shares of common stock in reconciliation of transfer records. Energroup received a General Release in conjunction with the issuance. Energroup completed the issuance because it believed the acquirer may be defined as a “Protected Purchaser” under Section 70A-8-303 of the Utah Code Annotated and Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code.

Except as stated above, we have had no recent sales of unregistered securities within the past three fiscal years. There were no underwritten offerings employed in connection with any of the transactions described above.
 
ITEM 16. EXHIBITS AND FINANCIAL STATEMENT SCHEDULES

(a) Exhibits

See “Exhibit Index” below which follows the signature pages to this registration statement.
 
ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS
 
(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

I.  To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement to:

(a)  Include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

(b)  Reflect in the prospectus any facts or events which, individually or together, represent a fundamental change in the information in the registration statement; and

(c)  Include any additional or changed material information on the plan of distribution.

II.  For the purposes of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933, treat each post-effective amendment as a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

II-3

 
III.  File a post-effective amendment to remove from registration any of the securities that remain unsold at the end of offering.
 
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer, or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by a director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of this issue.
 
In addition, the undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that:
 
 
1.
For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective, and
 
 
2.
For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and this offering of these securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
