The results of operations for the three month period and nine month period ended March 31, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the results for our full fiscal year ending June 30, 2008.
DRAGON INTERNATIONAL GROUP CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2008
NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year to conform to the current year presentation.
Restatement of financial statements
The financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007, including the three month period and nine month period ended March 31, 2007 have been restated to correct the accounting treatment previously accorded certain transactions.
| · | For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007, the Company erroneously filed financial statements presenting in their statement of cash flows the decrease of restricted cash as an investing activity. The Company is now presenting this as a financing activity, in accordance with SAS 95 “Statement of Cash Flows”. This error did not affect the balance sheet as of March 31, 2007, or the statements of operations for the three month period or nine month period ended March 31, 2007. With this correction, the statements of cash flows for the nine month period ended March 31, 2007 reflect an increase in cash flows from financing activities of $1,219,540. |
| · | For the fiscal years ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, the Company erroneously had deferred, over a three year period commencing in January 2006, $540,000 in consulting expense related to the issuance of 6,000,000 shares of its common stock to China Direct, Inc. and $395,675 related to the issuance of 4,700,000 common stock purchase warrants exercisable at $0.15 per share over a five year period, also to China Direct, Inc. In addition, in February 2006, the Company issued warrants to purchase 500,000 shares of common stock, exercisable for five years at $.15 per share, to Skyebanc, Inc. for a one year financial advisory consulting agreement. The Company had incorrectly deferred the fair value of these warrants of $71,243 over the contract term. The Company has restated the related financial statements to recognize the full expense of these agreements immediately upon entering into the consulting agreements in January 2006 and February 2006, under the provisions of EITF 96-18 and SFAS 123R. These corrections resulted in an increase in consulting expense for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006 and a reduction in consulting expense for subsequent periods, including a reduction in consulting expenses of $86,878 and $260,634 for the three month period and nine month period ended March 31, 2007, respectively, as detailed below. |
| · | In March 2007, pursuant to a consulting agreement, the Company issued 4,000,000 shares of its common stock to Capital One Resource Co., Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of China Direct, Inc. Initially, the Company had recorded and reported this issuance incorrectly as a cost of raising capital related to the private placement of $1,500,000 in units sold during the quarter. The Company has restated the financial statements to recognize the full expense of this agreement immediately upon entering into the consulting agreement in March 2007 under the provisions of EITF 96-18 and SFAS 123. This correction resulted in an increase in consulting expenses for the three month period ended and nine month period ended March 31, 2007 of $360,000 in each period. |
Components of the restatements are detailed in the following tables.
Consolidated statements of operations for the three month period ended March 31, 2007:

| (b) | To recognize the entire fair value of 4,000,000 shares of common stock issued to Capital One Resource Co., Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of China Direct, Inc. in March 2007. This transaction had previously been accounted for as a cost of raising capital rather than consulting expense. |
ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. Significant estimates in 2008 and 2007 include the allowance for doubtful accounts of accounts receivable, valuation of inventories, the useful life of property, plant and equipment and land use rights.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less and money market accounts to be cash equivalents. At March 31, 2008, the Company maintained a cash balance of $515,956. Of this amount $513,332 is held in China, and $2,624 is held in the U.S. Of the cash balance of $513,332 held in China, $284,811 is restricted, and is being held in a bank account as collateral for certain loans, totaling $569,622, held with Chinese banks and has been presented as restricted cash on the accompanying balance sheet.
ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE
Accounts receivable are reported at net realizable value. The Company has established an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon factors pertaining to the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends, and other information. Delinquent accounts are written-off against the allowance when it is determined that the amounts are uncollectible. At March 31, 2008, the allowance for doubtful accounts totaled $199,691.
INVENTORIES
Inventories, consisting of raw materials and finished goods related to the Company's products are stated at the lower of cost or market utilizing the weighted average method.

At March 31, 2008, advances on purchases amounted to $5,286,530. This amount consists of prepayments by the Company for merchandise orders that had not yet been shipped to the Company.
INTANGIBLE ASSETS / INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
The Company recognizes the value and amortizes intangible assets and intellectual property acquired in connection with their various acquisitions. The Company amortizes these assets based on expected useful lives of these assets, based on Company management projecting forward future revenue and expense streams of these acquired assets. For the nine months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, amortization expenses for intangible assets amounted to $56,821 and $79,775, respectively.
LONG - LIVED ASSETS
In accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, the Company evaluates its long-lived assets for possible impairment when changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Long-lived assets under certain circumstances are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value. Assets to be disposed of and assets not expected to provide any future service potential to the Company are recorded at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less related costs to sell. To the extent carrying values exceed fair values; an impairment loss is recognized in operating results.
STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Statement No. 123R, "Share-Based Payment, an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 123" ("FAS No. 123R"). FAS No. 123R requires companies to recognize in the statement of operations the grant- date fair value of stock options and other equity based compensation issued to employees. The Company adopted FAS No.123R in the first quarter of fiscal year 2006.
NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE
Basic income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income or loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock, common stock equivalents and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during each period.
The denominator used in the basic weighted average shares outstanding for the three month period and nine month period ended March 31, 2008 includes 8,186,029 shares issued on January 24, 2008 in connection with the acquisition of a 51% ownership interest in Wellton International Fiber Corp. Although the shares were not issued until January 24, 2008, they were considered contingently issuable shares within the meaning of SFAS 124, paragraph 10 as they were contractually committed in June 2007 and, accordingly, were considered outstanding during the entire nine month period ended March 31, 2008. In addition, while the 7,865,011 shares payable in connection with the September 28, 2007 acquisition of the remaining 49% interest in Wellton have not yet been issued by the Company as of this report date, these shares were considered outstanding for purposes of calculating basic earnings per share since September 28, 2007, the date the contract was entered into.
The following table presents a reconciliation of basic and diluted earnings per share:

NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
REVENUE RECOGNITION
The Company follows the guidance of the Securities and Exchange Commission's Staff Accounting Bulletin 104 for revenue recognition. In general, the Company records revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services have been rendered or product delivery has occurred, the sales price to the customer is fixed or determinable, and collectibility is reasonably assured.
SHIPPING AND HANDLING COSTS
The Company accounts for shipping and handling costs as a component of selling expenses.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION
Transactions and balances originally denominated in U.S. dollars are presented at their original amounts. Transactions and balances in other currencies are converted into U.S. dollars in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 52, "Foreign Currency Translation," and are included in determining net income or loss.
For foreign operations with the local currency as the functional currency, assets and liabilities are translated from the local currencies into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at weighted average exchange rates for the period to approximate translation at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates those elements are recognized in the financial statements. Translation adjustments resulting from the process of translating the local currency financial statements into U.S. dollars are included in determining comprehensive loss. At March 31, 2008 and 2007, the exchange rates for the Chinese dollar or Renminbi ("RMB") for 1 United States dollar were 7.0222 and 7.7409, respectively.
CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

NOTE 6 - OPERATING RISK
(a) Country risk
The Company's revenues are mainly derived from the sale of pulp, paper and packaging products in the Peoples Republic of China (PRC). The Company hopes to expand its operations to countries outside the PRC, however, such expansion has not been commenced and there are no assurances that the Company will be able to achieve such an expansion successfully. Therefore, a downturn or stagnation in the economic environment of the PRC could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition.
(b) Impact of the 2008 Beijing Olympics
Even though we are a U.S. company, the vast majority of our subsidiaries and their operations are located in the PRC. As a result, we are subject to the rules and regulations of that country. These risks include risks associated with the implementation of policies adopted by the PRC government. The PRC government has adopted various policies which will seek to minimize pollution during the Beijing Olympics to be held during August 2008. The new regulations seek to limit the operation of specific polluting agents commencing on June 1, 2008. Presently our facilities have not been notified of any potential interruption and we believe our facilities are in accordance with the new measures recently adopted. However, we are subject to the risk that suppliers of our raw materials may experience an interruption in their operations.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2008
NOTE 6 - OPERATING RISK (CONTINUED)
(c) Products risk
In addition to competing with other PRC based companies, the Company could have to compete with larger U.S. or foreign companies who have greater funds available for expansion, marketing, research and development and the ability to attract more qualified personnel, if access is allowed into the PRC market. If U.S. or foreign companies do gain access to the PRC markets, they may be able to offer products at a lower price. There can be no assurance that the Company will remain competitive should this occur.
(d) Exchange rate risk
The Company can not guarantee that the current exchange rate will remain steady, therefore there is a possibility that the Company could post the same amount of profit for two comparable periods and because of a fluctuating exchange rate actually post higher or lower operating profit depending on exchange rate of Chinese Renminbi converted to U.S. dollars for the period covered by the report. The exchange rate could fluctuate depending on changes in the political and economic environments without notice.
(e) Political risk
Currently, PRC is in a period of growth and is openly promoting business development in order to bring more business into the PRC. Additionally, the PRC allows a Chinese corporation to be owned by a United States corporation. If the laws or regulations are changed by the PRC government, the Company's ability to operate the PRC subsidiaries could be adversely affected.
(f) Key personnel risk
The Company's future success depends on the continued services of executive management in China. The loss of any of their services would be detrimental to the Company and could have an adverse effect on business development. The Company does not currently maintain key-man insurance on their lives. Future success is also dependent on the ability to identify, hire, train and retain other qualified managerial and other employees. Competition for these individuals is intense and increasing.
(g) Performance of subsidiaries risk
All of the Company's revenues are derived and are expected to continue to be derived through the operations of the Company's Chinese subsidiaries, most notably Wellton International Fiber Corp., which accounted for approximately 86% of our consolidated revenues for the nine month period ended March 31, 2008. Economic, governmental, political, industry and internal company factors outside of the Company's control affect each of the subsidiaries. If the subsidiaries do not succeed, the value of the assets and the price of our common stock could decline. Some of the material risks relating to the partner companies include the fact that the subsidiaries are located in China and have specific risks associated with that and the intensifying competition for the Company's products and services and those of the subsidiaries.
NOTE 7 – RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In July 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation ("FIN") No. 48, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes -- An Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109." FIN No. 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise's financial statements in accordance with SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." FIN No. 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The new standard also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods and disclosure. The provisions of FIN No. 48 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The adoption of FIN No. 48 has not had a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In September 2006, the Staff of the SEC issued SAB No. 108: "Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements". SAB No. 108 provides guidance on the consideration of the effects of prior year misstatements in quantifying current year misstatements for the purpose of determining whether the current year's financial statements are materially misstated. The SEC staff believes registrants must quantify errors using both a balance sheet and income statement approach and evaluate whether either approach results in quantifying a misstatement that, when all relevant quantitative and qualitative factors are considered, is material. This Statement is effective for fiscal years ending after November 15, 2006. The adoption of SAB No. 108 did not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157; "Fair Value Measurements". This statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This statement applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements, the FASB having previously concluded in those accounting pronouncements that fair value is a relevant measurement attribute. Accordingly, this statement does not require any new fair value measurements. However, for some entities, the application of this Statement will change current practices. This Statement is effective for financial statements for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. Earlier application is permitted provided that the reporting entity has not yet issued financial statements for that fiscal year. We are currently evaluating the provisions of FASB 157 to determine the future impact on our consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 7 – RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS (CONTINUED)
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, "The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities-including an amendment of FAS 115" ("SFAS 159"). SFAS 159 allows entities to choose, at specified election dates, to measure eligible financial assets and liabilities at fair value that are not otherwise required to be measured at fair value. If a company elects the fair value option for an eligible item, changes in that item's fair value in subsequent reporting periods must be recognized in current earnings. SFAS 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The adoption of SFAS No 159 is not expected to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007), “Business Combinations” (“SFAS No. 141R). SFAS No. 141 includes substantial changes to the acquisition method used to account for business combinations (formerly the “purchase accounting” method), including broadening the definition of a business, as well as revisions to accounting methods for contingent consideration and other contingencies related to the acquired business, accounting for transaction costs, and accounting for adjustments to provisional amounts recorded in connection with acquisitions. SFAS No. 141R retains the fundamental requirements of SFAS No. 141 that the acquisition method of accounting be used for all business combinations and for an acquirer to be identified for each business combination. SFAS No. 141R is effective for periods beginning on or after December 15, 2008, and will apply to all business combinations occurring after the effective date. The Company is currently evaluating the requirements of SFAS No. 141R.
In December 2007, the FASB also issued SFAS No. 160, “Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements- an amendment of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, Consolidated Financial Statements”. The Statement amends ARB No. 51 to establish new standards that will govern the (1) accounting for and reporting as part of equity in the consolidated subsidiaries and (2) the loss of control of subsidiaries. Non-controlling interest will be reported as part of equity in consolidated financial statements. Losses will be allocated to the non-controlling interest, and, if control is maintained, changes in ownership interests will be treated as equity transactions. Upon a loss of control, any gain or loss on the interest sold will be recognized in earnings. SFAS No.160 is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2008. The Company is currently evaluating the requirements of SFAS No.160.
In March 2008, FASB issued SFAS No.161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”. The new standard is intended to improve financial reporting about derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures to enable investors to better understand their effects on an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. It is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application encouraged. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS No.161 on our consolidated financial statements.
Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption.
NOTE 8 – WELLTON ACQUISITION
On September 28, 2007, the Company closed on the acquisition of the remaining 49% interest of Wellton International Fiber Corp. ("Wellton"), effective October 1, 2007, which resulted in Wellton becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. Wellton was established in 2002 as a company organized under the laws of the British Virgin Islands and acts as an agent and supplier for paper pulp and waste paper. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company agreed to issue 7,865,011 shares of its common stock, valued at $0.07 per share, the closing trade price of our common stock on the Over-the-Counter-Bulletin-Board on April 23, 2007, the date of the original agreement, in exchange for shares of Wellton. The consideration paid by the Company to Wellton is equal to 49% of Wellton’s net tangible assets of $1,123,573 as stated in Wellton’s unaudited financial statements as of March 31, 2007.
Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
OVERVIEW
Dragon International Group Corp., (“we”, the “Company” or “Dragon Nevada”) was incorporated in the state of Nevada in 1993. Through our subsidiaries, all located in the Peoples Republic of China (the “PRC”), we manufacture and distribute assorted paper products and paper based packaging materials.
Our main customers, also located in the PRC, are packaging companies for the tobacco, cosmetics and pharmaceutical industries as well as the wine, spirits and other beverage industries. Our products are used both as a finished product as well as a raw material input used by our customers in the manufacture of a variety of paper products and packaging materials.
While we operate through various entities, we manage and identify our products under one product segment.
We operate as a holding company with interests in the following subsidiaries:
| - | Dragon International Group., a Florida corporation (“Dragon Florida”) is a wholly owned subsidiary of Dragon Nevada. Dragon Nevada acquired a 100% interest in Dragon Florida in October 2004. |
| - | Ningbo Dragon International Trade Co., Ltd., (“Ningbo Dragon”). Ningbo Dragon is a wholly owned subsidiary of Dragon Florida. Dragon Florida acquired a 70% interest in Ningbo Dragon in June 2004 and the remaining 30% interest in December 2004. |
| - | Ningbo City Jiangdong Yonglongxin Special Paper co., Ltd. (“Yonglongxin”) was created as a wholly owned subsidiary of Ningbo Dragon in November 1999. Xianyang Naite Research and Development Center (“R&D Center”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Yonglongxin, was acquired by Yonglongxin in August 2005. |
| - | Ningbo Dragon Packaging Technology Co., Ltd., (“Dragon Packaging”) is a wholly owned subsidiary of Ningbo Dragon. Ningbo Dragon acquired a 100% interest in Dragon Packaging in June 2005. |
| - | Hangzhou Yongxin Paper Co., Ltd., (“Yongxin”) is a 60% owned subsidiary of Ningbo Dragon. The 60% interest was acquired in July 2005. |
| - | Shanghai JinKui Packaging Material Co., Ltd. (“JinKui”) is a wholly owned subsidiary of Dragon Nevada. Dragon Nevada acquired a 100% interest in JinKui in June 2006. |
| - | Wellton International Fiber Corp. (“Wellton”) is a wholly owned subsidiary of Dragon Nevada. Dragon Nevada acquired a 51% interest in Wellton in June 2007 and the remaining 49% in October 2007. |
FOREIGN EXCHANGE CONSIDERATIONS
Since revenues from our operations in the PRC accounted for 100% of our net revenues for the nine months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, how we report net revenues from our PRC-based operations is of particular importance to understanding our financial statements. Transactions and balances originally denominated in U.S. dollars are presented at their original amounts. Transactions and balances in other currencies are converted into U.S. dollars in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 52, "Foreign Currency Translation", and are included in determining net income or loss. For foreign operations with the local currency as the functional currency, assets and liabilities are translated from the local currencies into U.S. dollars at the prevailing exchange rate on the respective balance sheet date.
Revenues and expenses are translated at weighted average exchange rates for the period to approximate translation at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates those elements are recognized in the financial statements. Translation adjustments resulting from the process of translating the local currency financial statements into U.S. dollars are included in determining comprehensive loss.
The functional currency of our Chinese subsidiaries is the local currency, the Renminbi or the Chinese dollar, ("RMB"). The financial statements of our subsidiaries are translated to U.S. dollars using period and rates of exchange for assets and liabilities, and average rates of exchange for the period for revenues, costs, and expenses. Net gains and losses resulting from foreign exchange transactions are included in the consolidated statements of operations and were not material during the periods presented. Since 1994, the value of the Renminbi relative to the U.S. dollar has remained relatively stable; appreciating slightly against the U.S. dollar. On July 21, 2005, the PRC announced that the Renminbi would be pegged to a basket of currencies rather than tied to a fixed exchange rate to the U.S. dollar.
If any devaluation of the Renminbi were to occur in the future, returns on our operations in China, which are expected to be in the form of Renminbi, will be negatively impacted upon conversion to U.S. dollars. Although we attempt to have most future payments, mainly repayments of loans and capital contributions denominated in U.S. dollars, if any decrease in the value of the Renminbi were to occur in the future, our product sales in China and in other countries may be negatively affected.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates in 2008 and 2007 include inventory valuation, the allowance for doubtful accounts, the valuation of equity instruments, the useful life of property, plant and equipment and value of land use rights.
Inventories, consisting of raw materials and finished goods related to our products are stated at the lower of cost or market utilizing the weighted average method.
Our financial instruments at March 31, 2008 contain accounts receivable, accounts payable and short-term debt. The fair values of financial instruments approximate their recorded values.
We review the carrying value of property and equipment and land-use rights for impairment at least annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of long-lived assets is measured by comparison of its carrying amount to the undiscounted cash flows that the asset or asset group is expected to generate. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the property, if any, exceeds its fair market value.
During the nine month period ended March 31, 2008, there have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies that impacted our consolidated financial condition or results of operations.
REVENUE RECOGNITION
We follow the guidance of the Securities and Exchange Commission's Staff Accounting Bulletin 104 for revenue recognition. In general, we record revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services have been rendered or product delivery has occurred, the sales price to the customer is fixed or determinable, and collectibility is reasonably assured.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Revenues for the nine months ended March 31, 2008 were up sharply, increasing approximately 150% over the same period of the previous year. This increase was due to our acquisition of Wellton International Fiber corp. (“Wellton”). Revenues for the nine months ended March 31, 2008 totaled $33,288,872, a 150% increase over the prior year period of $13,326,569. Revenues attributable to Wellton totaled $28,745,005, or approximately 86% of all revenues for the current period. Revenues for the three month period ended March 31, 2008 increased by $8,998,165 to $12,302,847 over the $3,304,682 reported in the comparable period of the preceding year. This sharp increase was almost entirely due to the Wellton acquisition.
It must be noted that this significant growth resulted from the Wellton acquisition and not from organic growth. While we continue to seek potential acquisitions, there can be no assurance when or if future acquisitions will be identified. Accordingly, we do not believe this rate of growth is sustainable.
Our intentional shift in distribution services for paper and paper products from our other subsidiaries to Wellton resulted in a drop in sales for these companies of $8,782,702 for the nine month period ended March 31, 2008 compared to the same period in 2007. Our subsidiary, Yonglongxin, has suspended its distribution operations and has shifted its focus to the manufacturing of paper products, which, while in the preliminary stages, is expected to lead to higher margins in the future for the consolidated group.
A summary comparison between the nine month period ended March 31, 2008 and March 31, 2007 is as follows:

Total operating costs as a percentage of revenues | | | 5 | % | | | 11 | % | | | (6 | ) % |
Cost of sales as a percentage of revenues, remained relatively stable between the periods, totaling 93% of sales for the nine months ended March 31, 2008 and 92% for the same period of the preceding year. Cost of sales for the third fiscal quarters totaled 92% and 90%, for the three month periods March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The overall sharp increase of 281% is approximately in proportion to, and attributable to, the 272% increase in overall sales between the periods.
Selling expenses increased $230,570 or 93.1% during the current period over the $248,244 for the first nine months of the prior fiscal year to $478,814 in the current year. This increase, as was the $83,492 increase in the third quarter of the current year, is directly related to the overall increase in the level of sales.
General and administrative expenses declined between the periods, decreasing $129,889 or 11% between the periods. This decrease, despite the significant increases in revenues and directly related costs, is due to the economics enjoyed by consolidating our paper and paper related products in Wellton with a reduction in these costs previously spread over smaller subsidiaries.
Other income for the quarter ended and nine months ended March 31, 2008, consists primarily of a tax rebate granted by the Chinese tax authorities of $1,726,482. We accrued for value-added tax (“VAT”) recorded on the sale of our paper products, which are subject to VAT as imposed by the PRC and provincial tax authorities. While there can be no future assurance, we routinely receive abatements of VAT as we participate in a local provincial program of hiring employees with physical handicaps. The responsible tax authorities in the PRC notify us of our VAT abatements after we have collected the VAT from our customers as required. We incorporate the tax in our cost and pass it on to our end customers. Until we receive notification of the amount, if any, of VAT abated by the tax authorities, the VAT remains accrued. Upon notification of the tax authorities that all or a portion of our accrued VAT has been abated, the excess of accrued VAT is taken into income. Under PRC tax regulations, in the event the VAT collected by us from customers is either abated or partially abated, the amount of VAT abated is not required to be refunded to customers.
Net income increased sharply for the three months ended and nine months ended March 31, 2008 over the comparable periods of the preceding year. This increase was almost entirely due to the abatement of accrued VAT taxes, which totaled $1,726,482. While we intend to continue with our programs targeting employment of handicapped workers, there can be no assurance that the PRC taxing authorities will continue to grant us VAT abatements in the future. Had we not received the VAT abatement, net income for the nine month period ended March 31, 2008 would have been $470,922 or an increase of $819,510 over the comparable period of the preceding year.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As of March 31, 2008, we had on hand $231,145 in unrestricted cash, working capital of approximately $5,364,689 and an accumulated deficit since inception of $306,563. Our restricted cash balance on hand at March 31, 2008, totaling $284,811, is pledged to the repayment of notes, totaling $569,622, held by the Bank of Transportation in the PRC.
Cash used in operating activities totaled $1,838,309 for the nine months ended March 31, 2008 compared to cash used in operating activities for the same period of the preceding year of $576,542. This overall increase of $1,261,767 was primarily attributable to an overall increase in our level of activities stemming from our acquisition of Wellton. The largest uses of cash during the current period are primarily associated with the sharp increase in the level of sales including increased funding of: accounts receivable of $1,551,599; inventories of $1,286,080; prepaid and other current assets of $551,890; advances on purchases of $1,119,497; and accrued expenses of $176,033. These uses of cash were offset somewhat by an increase in accounts payable of $1,573,833and reduction in notes receivable of $419,511.
We have historically supplemented our operational cash flow, as needed, through PRC based bank borrowings. These borrowings have been primarily with the Agricultural Bank of China and the Bank of Communications. The level of these borrowings increased approximately 23% during the fiscal year and totaled $4,852,382 as of March 31, 2008, up from $3,946,378 at June 30, 2007. We believe our relationship with these banks remains good and we will be able to replace or renew these loans as they become due. We are current with our payment obligations relating to these loans. Our inability to renew these obligations as they become due or find alternate sources of funding will adversly affect our operations.
A summary of our notes payable, all current obligations as March 31, 2008 is as follows:

OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
As of the date of this report, we do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that are likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition material to our shareholders. In the ordinary course of business, we enter into operating lease commitments, purchase commitments and other contractual obligations. These transactions are recognized in our financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.
Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Information and Factors That May Affect Future Results
This report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Securities and Exchange Commission encourages companies to disclose forward-looking information so that investors can better understand a company's future prospects and make informed investment decisions. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB and other written and oral statements that we make from time to time contain such forward-looking statements that set out anticipated results based on management's plans and assumptions regarding future events or performance. We have tried, wherever possible, to identify such statements by using words such as "anticipate," "estimate," "expect," "project," "intend," "plan," "believe," "will" and similar expressions in connection with any discussion of future operating or financial performance. In particular, these include statements relating to future actions, future performance or results of current and anticipated sales efforts, expenses, the outcome of contingencies, such as legal proceedings, and financial results. A list of factors that could cause our actual results of operations and financial condition to differ materially is set forth below, and these factors are discussed in greater detail under Item 1. Description of Business--Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-KSB/A for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007:
The loss of the services of any of our executive officers or the loss of services of any of our key persons responsible for the management, sales, marketing and operations efforts of our subsidiaries; our ability to successfully transition the internal operations of companies which we acquired in the PRC from their prior status as privately held Chinese companies to their current status as subsidiaries of a publicly-held U.S. company; our acquisition efforts in the future may result in significant dilution to existing holders of our securities; difficulties in raising capital in the future as a result of the terms of our January 2007 financing; our ability to effectively integrate our acquisitions and manage our growth; the lack of various legal protections customary in certain agreements to which we are party and which are material to our operations which are customarily contained in similar contracts prepared in the United States; our dependence upon advisory services provided by a U.S. company due to our management’s location in the Peoples Republic of China (“PRC”); intense competition in the packaging products and paperboard industries; the impact of economic downturn in the PRC on our revenues from our operations in the PRC; the impact of changes in the political and economic policies and reforms of the Chinese government; fluctuations in the exchange rate between the U.S. dollars and Chinese Renminbi; the limitation on our ability to receive and use our revenue effectively as a result of restrictions on currency exchange in China; the impact of changes to the tax structure in the PRC; our inability to enforce our legal rights in China due to policies regarding the regulation of foreign investments; and the existence of extended payment terms which are customary in China; uncertainties related to PRC regulations relating to acquisitions of PRC companies by foreign entities that could restrict or limit our ability to operate, and could negatively effect our acquisition strategy.
We caution that the factors described herein and other factors could cause our actual results of operations and financial condition to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements we make and that investors should not place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements. Further, any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made, and we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which such statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events or circumstances. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of such factors. Further, we cannot assess the impact of each such factor on our results of operations or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.
ITEM 3. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended as of March 31, 2008, the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, our management concluded its evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures.
Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system's objectives will be met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. The design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
Disclosure controls and procedures and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time period specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to management including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Based upon that evaluation, our company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective because of the significant deficiency and the material weakness described below. Measures are being taken to include documentation of management oversight and review as part of the appropriate functional procedures.
Restatement of financial statements
The financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007, including the three month period and nine month period ended March 31, 2008 have been restated to correct the accounting treatment previously accorded certain transactions.
| · | For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007, the Company erroneously filed financial statements presenting in their statement of cash flows the decrease of restricted cash as an investing activity. The Company is now presenting this as a financing activity, in accordance with SFAS 95 “Statement of Cash Flows”. This error did not affect the balance sheet as of December 2006, or the statements of operations for the three month period or nine month period ended March 31, 2007. With this correction, the statements of cash flows for the nine month period ended March 31, 2007 reflect an increase in cash flows from financing activities of $1,219,540 |
| · | For the fiscal years ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, the Company erroneously had deferred, over a three year period commencing in January 2006, $540,000 in consulting expense related to the issuance of 6,000,000 shares of its common stock to China Direct, Inc. and $395,675 related to the issuance of 4,700,000 common stock purchase warrants exercisable at $0.15 per share over a five year period, also to China Direct, Inc. In addition, in February 2006, the Company issued warrants to purchase 500,000 shares of common stock, exercisable for five years at $.15 per share, to Skyebanc, Inc. for a one year financial advisory consulting agreement. The Company had incorrectly deferred the fair value of these warrants of $71,243 over the contract term. The Company has restated the related financial statements to recognize the full expense of these agreements immediately upon entering into the consulting agreements in January 2006 and February 2006, under the provisions of EITF 96-18 and SFAS 123. These corrections resulted in an increase in consulting expense for year ended June 30, 2006 and a reduction in consulting expense for subsequent periods including a reduction in consulting expenses of $86,878 and $260,634 for the three month period and nine month period ended March 31, 2008, respectively. |
| | |
| · | In March 2007, pursuant to a consulting agreement, the Company issued 4,000,000 shares of its common stock to Capital One Resource Co., Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of China Direct, Inc. Initially, the Company had recorded and reported this issuance incorrectly as a cost of raising capital related to the private placement of $1,500,000 in units sold during the quarter. The Company has restated the financial statements to recognize the full expense of this agreement immediately upon entering into the consulting agreement in March 2007 under the provisions of EITF 96-18 and SFAS 123. This correction resulted in an increase in consulting expenses for the quarter ended and nine month period ended March 31, 2007 of $360,000. |
All of our employees and the bulk of accounting staff are located in the PRC and we do not presently have a Chief Financial Officer, comptroller or similarly titled senior financial officer who is bilingual and experienced in the application of U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. During fiscal 2006 we began a search for an appropriate candidate who can fill such a position; however, as of May 2008, the Company has not engaged one and we are unable to predict when such a person will be hired. During fiscal 2006 we also began providing additional training to our accounting staff in the application of U.S. GAAP. As a result, our management believes that a deficiency in our internal controls continues to exist. Until we expand our staff to include a bilingual senior financial officer who has the requisite experience necessary, and supplement the accounting knowledge of our staff, it is likely that we will continue to have material weaknesses in our disclosure controls and procedures.
Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. The design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
Other than the items discussed above there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
ITEM 3A(T). CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Please refer to Item 3 above for:
| (i) a description of the conclusions of our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, regarding the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or Rule 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by the report, based on the evaluation of these controls and procedures required by paragraph (b) of Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15 under the Exchange Act; and |
| (ii) a report of management on the small business issuer's internal control over financial reporting; as well as changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with its evaluation that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. |
In addition, this quarterly report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only management's report in this quarterly report.
