During the three months ended December 31, 2009, we sold a total of 35,588 tons of products, an increase of 20,726 tons from 14,862 tons during the same period a year ago, due to increase in demand in a gradually improving market. We believe that such increase was mainly caused by increases in demand from the auto and home appliance products due to government subsidies to encourage consumer spending in these segments during the period ended December 31, 2009. Increased volume and sales have led to a gross profit of $3,635,955 and a net profit of $2,589,437 for the three months ended December 31, 2009.

Sales volume increased by 20,726 tons, or 139%, period-on-period to 35,588 tons for the three months ended December 31, 2009 from 14,862 tons for the three months ended December 31, 2008 and, as a result, sales revenues increased by $9,439,879, or 54%, period-on-period to $27,013,838 for the three months ended December 31, 2009 from $17,573,959 for the three months ended December 31, 2008. The increase in sales revenues during the three months ended December 31, 2009 is mainly attributable to increase in demand for high-carbon cold-rolled products used in automobile components production as well as increase in demand for low-carbon cold-rolled products used in home appliances production both due to favorable government policies and subsidies to encourage consumer spending.
