FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
The discussions of the business and activities of Rongfu Aquaculture, Inc. (“we,” “us,” “our” or “the Company”) set forth in this Form 10-Q/A and in other past and future reports and announcements by the Company may contain forward-looking statements and assumptions regarding future activities and results of operations of the Company. You can identify these statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements include statements regarding, among other things, (a) our projected sales, profitability, and cash flows, (b) our growth strategies, (c) anticipated trends in our industry, (d) our future financing plans and (e) our anticipated needs for working capital. They are generally identifiable by use of the words "may," "will," "should," "anticipate," "estimate," "plans," “potential," "projects," "continuing," "ongoing," "expects," "management believes," "we believe," "we intend" or the negative of these words or other variations on these words or comparable terminology. These statements may be found under "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” as well as in this Form 10-Q generally. In particular, these include statements relating to future actions, prospective products or product approvals, future performance or results of current and anticipated products, sales efforts, expenses, the outcome of contingencies such as legal proceedings, and financial results.
Any or all of our forward-looking statements in this report may turn out to be inaccurate. They can be affected by inaccurate assumptions we might make or by known or unknown risks or uncertainties. Consequently, no forward-looking statement can be guaranteed. Actual future results may vary materially as a result of various factors, including, without limitation, the risks outlined under "Risk Factors" and matters described in the most recent Form 10-K filed by the Company. In light of these risks and uncertainties, there can be no assurance that the forward-looking statements contained in this filing will in fact occur. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.
We undertake no obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect subsequent events, changed circumstances, or the occurrence of unanticipated events.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2010
(UNAUDITED AND RESTATED)
Note 1 – ORGANIZATION
Rongfu Aquaculture, Inc., formerly named Granto, Inc (the “Company”) was incorporated in Nevada on February 29, 2008. On March 29, 2010, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with Rongfu Aquaculture, Inc. (“Rongfu”), certain stockholders and warrant holders of Rongfu (the “Rongfu Stockholders”) and a stockholder of Granto (the “Share Exchange Agreement”). Pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement, on March 29, 2010, 9 Rongfu Stockholders transferred 100% of the outstanding shares of common stock and 100% of the warrants to purchase common stock of Rongfu held by them, in exchange for an aggregate of 18,623,889 newly issued shares of our Common Stock held by them (the “Share Exchange Transaction”). In addition the shareholders received warrants to purchase an aggregate of 666,666 shares of our Common Stock. In connection with the closing of the Share Exchange Agreement, the former principal stockholder agreed to and did cancel 1,150,000 of the 1,200,000 shares of Granto, Inc. Common Stock held by her.
On March 29, 2010, the Company completed its merger with Rongfu in accordance with the Share Exchange Agreement. The Share Exchange Transaction is being accounted for as a reverse acquisition. In accordance with the Accounting and Financial Reporting Interpretations and Guidance prepared by the staff of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, the Company (the legal acquirer) is considered the accounting acquiree and Rongfu (the legal acquiree) is considered the accounting acquirer for accounting purposes. Subsequent to the Share Exchange Transaction, the financial statements of the combined entity will in substance be those of Rongfu. The assets, liabilities and historical operations prior to the share exchange transaction will be those of Rongfu. Subsequent to the date of the Share Exchange Transaction, Rongfu is deemed to be a continuation of the business of the Company. Therefore post-exchange financial statements will include the combined balance sheet of the Company and Rongfu, the historical operations of Rongfu and the operations of the Company and Rongfu from the closing date of the Share Exchange Transaction forward.
Rongfu was incorporated in Delaware on January 13, 2009. Flourishing Blessing (Hong Kong) Co., Ltd. (“Hong Kong Rongfu”) was incorporated on November 11, 2008. Pursuant to a Share Exchange Agreement, dated as of December 29, 2009, (the “December 2009 Agreement”) all of the shareholders of Hong Kong Rongfu exchanged all of the outstanding shares of Hong Kong Rongfu for shares of common stock of Rongfu and Rongfu became the owner of 100% of the outstanding capital stock of Hong Kong Rongfu. Hong Kong Rongfu owns 100% of the capital stock of Guangzhou Flourishing Blessing Hansen Agriculture Technology Limited (“Guangzhou Flourishing”). Guangzhou Flourishing is a wholly foreign-owned enterprise, or “WFOE,” under the laws of the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”) by virtue of its status as a wholly-owned subsidiary of a non-PRC company, Hong Kong Rongfu. In connection with the closing of the December 2009 Agreement, Guangzhou Flourishing entered into and consummated a series of agreements (the “Contractual Agreements”),with Chen Zhisheng and Foshan Nanhai Ke Da Heng Sheng Aquatic Co., Ltd. (“Nanhai Ke Da Heng Sheng”). Under the Contractual Agreements, Guangzhou Flourishing agreed to assume control of the operations and management of Nanhai Ke Da Heng Sheng in exchange for a management fee equal to Nanhai Ke Da Heng Sheng’s earnings before taxes. As a result, the business of Nanhai Ke Da Heng Sheng and Hainan Ke Da Heng Sheng Aquit Germchit Co., Ltd., a PRC corporation (“Hainan Ke Da Heng Sheng”) , 70% of the outstanding stock of which is owned by Nanhai Ke Da Heng Sheng, will be conducted by Guangzhou Flourishing. We anticipate that Nanhai Ke Da Heng Sheng and Hainan Ke Da Heng Sheng will continue to be the contracting parties under their customer contracts, bank loans and certain other assets until such time as those may be transferred to Guangzhou Flourishing. Nanhai Ke Da Heng Sheng was formed in the PRC on April 30, 2003 as a limited liability company (a company solely owned by a natural person). Hainan Ke Da Heng Sheng was formed in the PRC on August 6, 2007 as a limited liability company. Guangzhou Flourishing was incorporated in the PRC on January 9, 2009 as a WFOE.
The Contractual Agreements completed in December 2009 provide that Guangzhou Flourishing has controlling interest in Nanhai Ke Da Heng Sheng under FASB Accounting Standards Codification “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities”, an Interpretation of an Accounting Research Bulletin, which requires Guangzhou Flourishing to consolidate the financial statements of Nanhai Ke Da Heng Sheng and Hainan Ke Da Heng Shen and ultimately consolidate with its parent company, Rongfu Aquaculture, Inc.
The Company, through its subsidiaries, and Contractual Agreements, is engaged in integrated business of aquaculture including Tilapia brood stock, Tilapia fry, Tilapia farming, and marketing for Tilapia. It is specializing in the production of the Hengsheng Brand Nile Tilapia and the new licensed New Jifu Tilapia.
In the opinion of the management of the Company, the accompanying consolidated interim financial statements contain all material adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position of the Company at June 30, 2010 and the results of its operations for the six- month periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 and its cash flows for the six month periods June 30, 2010 and 2009. Actual results may differ from these estimates as a result of different assumptions or conditions.

All material inter-company accounts, transactions and profits have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company has adopted the Consolidation Topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification which requires a variable interest entity (“VIE”) to be consolidated by a company if that company is subject to a majority of the risk of loss for the VIE or is entitled to receive a majority of the VIE’s residual returns.
Translation Adjustment
As of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the accounts of the Company were maintained, and its financial statements were expressed, in Chinese Yuan Renminbi (“CNY”). Such financial statements were translated into U.S. Dollars (“USD”) in accordance with the Foreign Currency Matters Topic of the Codification, with the CNY as the functional currency. According to the Codification, all assets and liabilities were translated at the current exchange rate, stockholders’ equity are translated at the historical rates and income statement items are translated at the average exchange rate for the period. The resulting translation adjustments are reported under other comprehensive income in accordance with the Comprehensive Income Topic of the Codification, as a component of shareholders’ equity. Transaction gains and losses are reflected in the income statement.
Statement of Cash Flows
In accordance with the Statement of Cash Flows Topic of the Codification, cash flows from the Company’s operations are based upon the local currencies. As a result, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the statement of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the balance sheet.
Use of 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Comprehensive Income
The Company follows the Comprehensive Income Topic of the Codification. Comprehensive income is a more inclusive financial reporting methodology that includes disclosure of certain financial information that historically has not been recognized in the calculation of net income.
Risks and Uncertainties
The Company’s operations are carried out in the PRC. Accordingly, the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic and legal environments in the PRC, by the general state of the PRC’s economy. The Company’s business may be influenced by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion and remittance abroad, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things
The Company is subject to substantial risks from, among other things, intense competition associated with the industry in general, other risks associated with financing, liquidity requirements, rapidly changing customer requirements, limited operating history, foreign currency exchange rates and the volatility of public markets.

Note 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Contingencies
Certain conditions may exist as of the date the financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company’s management and legal counsel assess such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company’s legal counsel evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought. There were no contingencies of this type as of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009.
If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in the Company’s financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potential material loss contingency is not probable but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, together with an estimate of the range of possible loss if determinable and material would be disclosed. There were no contingencies of this type as of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009.
Loss contingencies considered to be remote by management are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the guarantee would be disclosed.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand and cash in time deposits, certificates of deposit and all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less.
Accounts Receivable
The Company maintains reserves for potential credit losses on accounts receivable. Management reviews the composition of accounts receivable and analyzes historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns to evaluate the adequacy of these reserves. Reserves are recorded primarily on a specific identification basis. There were no allowances for doubtful accounts as of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009.
Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost (determined on a weighted average basis) or market. As of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, inventories consist of the following:

Property, Plant & Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to earnings as incurred; additions, renewals and betterments are capitalized. When property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts, and any gain or loss is included in operations. Depreciation of property and equipment is provided using the straight-line method for substantially all assets with estimated lives of:
Buildings | 10-20 years |
Fishing gear | 5-10 years |

Depreciation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 was $54,726 and $54,369, respectively.
Long-Lived Assets
The Company adopted the Property, Plant and Equipment Topic of the Codification, which addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets and supersedes previous accounting guidance, “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of,” and “Reporting the Results of Operations for a Disposal of a Segment of a Business.” The Company periodically evaluates the carrying value of long-lived assets to be held and used, which requires impairment losses to be recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets carrying amounts. In that event, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair market value of the long-lived assets. Loss on long-lived assets to be disposed of is determined in a similar manner, except that fair market values are reduced for the cost of disposal. Based on its review, the Company believes that, as of June 30, 2010, there were no impairments of its long-lived assets.
Derivative Liability
The Company issued warrants in connection with the Share Exchange Agreement and Series A Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement dated March 29, 2010 (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”).
The Company determined that the warrants did not qualify for a scope exception under ASC 815 as they were determined to not be indexed to the Company’s stock as prescribed by ASC 815. The warrants, under ASC 815, were classified as derivative liability for the then relative fair market value of $3,267,797 and marked to market. For the six months ended June30, 2010, the Company recorded a loss on change in fair value of derivative liability of $5,307,988 to mark to market for the increase in fair value of the warrants through June 30, 2010. Under ASC 815, the warrants will be carried at fair value and adjusted at each reporting period.

Note 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
In accordance with FASB ASC 820, fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e., the “exit price”) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
In determining fair value, the Company uses various valuation approaches. In accordance with GAAP, a fair value hierarchy for inputs is used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are those that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s assumptions about the inputs market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The fair value hierarchy is categorized into three levels based on the inputs as follows:
· | Level 1 — inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. |
· | Level 2 — inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the assets or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instruments. |
· | Level 3 — inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value. |
As of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the derivative liabilities amounted to $8,575,785 and $0. In accordance with the accounting standards, the Company determined that the carrying value of these derivatives approximated the fair value using the level 1 inputs.
Revenue Recognition
The Company records revenues for goods shipped at the time of shipment. For goods delivered by the Company to a customer’s site, revenues are recognized at time of delivery.
The Company believes that recognizing revenue at these times is appropriate because the Company’s sales policies meet the four criteria of the SEC’s staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, which are: (i) persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists, (ii) service has occurred, (iii) the seller’s price to the buyer is fixed and determinable and (iv) collection is reasonably assured.
Research and development cost
Research and development costs are expensed in the period when they are incurred. During the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, research and development costs were $38,643 and $35,142, respectively. During the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, research and development costs were $18,807 and $16,307, respectively.
Advertising
Advertising expenses consist primarily of costs of promotion for corporate image and product marketing and costs of direct advertising. The Company expenses all advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expense for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 were $15,688 and $8,636, respectively. Advertising expense for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 were $8,089 and $6,610, respectively.

Shipping and handling fees
The Company follows ASC 605-45, “Handling Costs, Shipping Costs”. The Company does not charge its customers for shipping and handling. The Company classifies shipping and handling costs as part of selling, general and administrative expense. Shipping and handling fees for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 were $243,593 and $47,586, respectively. Shipping and handling fees for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 were $179,152 and $45,828, respectively.
Advances from Clients
The Company records deposits received by customers prior to the completion of the sale as deferred revenues and included as a component of advances from clients. At such time as the revenue cycle is complete, these monies will be recognized into revenues.
Income Taxes
The Company utilizes the accounting guidance, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each period end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. It is the Company’s intention to permanently reinvest earnings from activity with china. And thereby indefinitely postpone repatriation of these funds to the US. Accordingly, no domestic deferred income tax provision has been made for US income tax which could result from paying dividend to the Company.
There were no deferred tax difference as of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk are cash, accounts receivable and other receivables arising from its normal business activities. The Company places its cash in what it believes to be credit-worthy financial institutions. The Company has a diversified customer base, all are in China. The Company controls credit risk related to accounts receivable through credit approvals, credit limits and monitoring procedures. The Company routinely assesses the financial strength of its customers and, based upon factors surrounding the credit risk, establishes an allowance, if required, for uncollectible accounts and, as a consequence, believes that its accounts receivable credit risk exposure beyond such allowance is limited.

Note 15 – STATUTORY RESERVE
In accordance with the laws and regulations of the PRC, a wholly-owned Foreign Invested Enterprises income, after the payment of the PRC income taxes, shall be allocated to the statutory surplus reserves and statutory public welfare fund. Prior to January 1, 2006 the proportion of allocation for reserve was 10 percent of the profit after tax to the surplus reserve fund and additional 5-10 percent to the public affair fund. The public welfare fund reserve was limited to 50 percent of the registered capital. Effective January 1, 2006, there is now only one fund requirement. The reserve should be 10 percent of income after tax, not to exceed 50 percent of registered capital. Statutory Reserve funds are restricted for set off against losses, expansion of production and operation or increase in register capital of the respective company. Statutory public welfare fund is restricted to the capital expenditures for the collective welfare of employees. These reserves are not transferable to the Company in the form of cash dividends, loans or advances. These reserves are therefore not available for distribution except in liquidation. As of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the Company had allocated $1,076,310 and $1,051,089, to these non-distributable reserve funds.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion and analysis of the consolidated financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes of Rongfu Aquaculture, Inc. appearing elsewhere in this report. This discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements.
Overview
The Company is engaged in commercial freshwater aquaculture in the PRC. It sells fish and fish fry and also acts as a freshwater fish dealer (generating trading profits from the purchase of fish from third party farmers and the immediate sale of such fish to wholesalers).
The Company operates 13 adult fish breeding farms, covering a total area of 8,249 mu Three of the Company’s farms are located in Hainan Province, two in the town of Wenchang and one in Nanling. The other 10 farms are located in Guangdong Province in the towns or villages of Nanhai, Qinyuan, Taishan, Yangdong and Gaoyao. 9 of the farms consist of a series of man-made ponds. Each pond is outfitted with one or more oxygen aeration machines which float on the surface and one or more feeding machines which provide food to the fish twice per day. The aeration machines provide oxygen to the fish and enable the natural removal of fish wastes so that the water does not become toxic for the fish.
4 of the Company’s farms are each comprised of a single lake created by damming a river. Oxygen aeration equipment is not needed since the lakes have a much larger area than the ponds dug by the Company. The land on which the farms are located is leased by the Company from the village under leases for terms of 4 to 30 years.
In addition to its adult fish breeding farms, the Company operates a breeding farm in Wenchang, Hainan Province in which tilapia fry are produced from brood stock.
At its facilities in Nanhai (at which the Company’s fish clinic is also located) and Wenchang, the Company also has constructed and maintains concrete tanks where the Company incubates tilapia. The Company also incubates snakehead and crucian carp fry in its tank in Nanhai. After the incubation period the Company sells approximately 95% of the fry to distributors.
Comparison of three months ended June 30, 2010 and June 30, 2009
The following table presents the Company’s consolidated revenue for its lines of business for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and three months ended June 30, 2009, respectively:
Three Months Ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 | % | |||||||||||
2010 | 2009 | Change | ||||||||||
Farm growing | $ | 6,803,184 | $ | 4,114,201 | 65 | % | ||||||
Breeding | $ | 2,799,043 | $ | 2,462,782 | 14 | % | ||||||
Trading | $ | 3,027,670 | $ | 984,866 | 207 | % | ||||||
Consolidated | $ | 12,629,897 | $ | 7,561,849 | 67 | % |
Revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2010 were $12,629,897, an increase of $5,068,048 or 67%, when compared to the same period in 2009. Such increase was mainly attributed to the increase in sales of the trading business of adult fish, particularly snakehead which increased $2.1 million, and the farm growing of adult fish, particularly snakehead, which increased $2.7 million compared to the same period of 2009 following the opening in May 2010 of our logistics center which facilitated the distribution of snakehead to Guangzhou Province and other regions in the PRC. For the three months ended June 30, 2010, the sales of fish fry increased $336,260 compared to the same period of the prior year, due to sales of fry of our two new fish – yellow catfish and California perch.
Cost of goods sold for the three months ended June 30, 2010 were $7,726,590 an increase of $3,805,328 or 97%, when compared to the same sales period of the prior year, which consisted of an increase of $2,202,850 for breeding adult fish and an increase of $1,813,881 for the trading business, slightly offset by a decrease of $31,359 for breeding fish fry. The percentage increase in cost of goods sold is higher than that of the percentage increase in revenue mainly because the revenues of the farm growing segment and trading segment, with relatively higher costs of sales increased proportionately more than revenues of the breeding segment.
4
Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2010 was $4,903,307, an increase of $1,262,720 or 35%, when compared to the same period in 2009. The increase in gross profit is comprised of an increase of $666,177 for breeding adult fish, an increase of $228,924 for the Company’s trading business and an increase of $367,619 for breeding fish fry. The reason for the increase of gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2010 was the increase in sales. The percentage increase in gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2010 over the three months ended June 30, 2009 is lower than the percentage increase in revenues for the same periods due to higher costs of goods sold in the three months ended June 30, 2010 as a result of changes in the product mix.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2010 were $916,151, an increase of $300,463 or 49%, when compared to the same period in 2009, mainly due to an increase in selling expenses of $353,309 relating to the increase in sales and an increase in general and administrative expenses of $76,962 mainly due to the expansion of the Company’s business.
Research and development expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2010 were $18,807, an increase of $2,500 or 15%, when compared with $16,307 in the same period in 2009.
Income from operations for the three months ended June 30, 2010 was $3,968,349, an increase of $959,757 or 32%, when compared to the same period in 2009. The main reason for the increase in income from operations was the increase in sales of adult fish breeding and fish fry.
Interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2010 was $3,852, a decrease of $5,141 or 57%, when compared to the same period in 2009, primarily because the Company used a part of its interest earning funds to pay dividends and income tax in the fourth quarter in 2009, which decreased the Company’s interest income as a consequence. Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2010 was $17,447, an increase of $17,206 due to the increase in the Company’s short term bank loans, when compared to the same period in 2009.
Income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2010 was $252,098, an increase of $74,720, or 42%, when compared to the same period in 2009. In 2010 more fry was sold and fry was tax exempt while farmed fish was subject to a 12.5% income tax. Trading revenue from grown fish was taxed at a rate of 25%. In 2010 more revenue was contributed by farming and trading and therefore the income taxes were higher than that of 2009.
The Company recorded a loss on fair value of derivative liability of $745,740 for the three months ended June 30, 2010.
Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2010 was $2,956,916 as compared to net income of $2,839,965 for the three months ended June 30, 2009 mainly due to the increase in gross profit of $1,262,720 from business expansion offset by the increase in selling, general and administrative expenses of $300,463 and the non-cash item of loss on fair value of derivative liability of $745,740 in the second quarter in fiscal year 2010. During the first quarter of 2010, the Company completed a private placement of its preferred stock and warrants. The Company was required to separately account for the conversion option of 4,127,268 shares of common stock exercisable in 5 years embedded in Series A to D warrants issued on March 29, 2010 as a derivative instrument liability, carried at fair value and marked-to-market each period, with changes in the fair value each period charged or credited to the income statement. The warrants are therefore recorded as a derivative instrument liability, carried at fair value.
Comparison of six months ended June 30, 2010 and June 30, 2009
The following table presents the Company’s consolidated revenue for its lines of business for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and six months ended June 30, 2009, respectively:

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2010 were $1,781,495, an increase of $416,344 or 30%, when compared to the same period in 2009, mainly attributable to the increase in selling expenses of $551,650 for the expansion of the Company’s business. The increase in selling expenses was offset by a decrease in general and administrative expenses by $135,306 due to less maintenance fees and security fees incurred in the six months ended June 30, 2009 that did not recur in the six months ended June 30, 2010.
Income from operations for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was $6,286,901, an increase of $906,924 or 17%, when compared to the same period in 2009. The main reason for the increase in income from operations was the increase in sales of adult fish and fish fry.
Interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was $6,614, a decrease of $14,226 or 68%, when compared to the same period in 2009, primarily because the Company used a part of its interest earning funds to pay dividends and income tax of the fourth quarter in 2009, which decreased the Company’s interest income as a consequence.

This loss on fair value was recorded to mark to market for the increase in fair value of the warrants through March 31, 2010. Under ASC 815, the warrants will be carried at fair value and adjusted at each reporting period.
Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was $462,102 as compared to net income of $5,021,462 for the six months ended June 30, 2009. The $4,559,360 difference is attributable to the loss of $5,307,988 on fair value of derivative liability offset by the improvement in net income from operations in the six months ended June 30, 2010. During the first quarter of 2010, the Company completed a private placement of its preferred stock and warrants. The Company was required to separately account for the conversion option of 4,127,268 shares of common stock exercisable in 5 years embedded in Series A to D warrants issued on March 29, 2010 as a derivative instrument liability, carried at fair value and marked-to-market each period, with changes in the fair value each period charged or credited to the income statement..

The majority of the increase was in cash, accounts receivable and inventories, which was partially offset by a decrease in amount due from shareholders.
During the six months ended June 30, 2010, cash increased by $3,931,229, or 123%, to $7,125,477 as compared to $3,194,248 as of December 31, 2009. This is mainly attributed to the Company’s receipt of $6,561,077 in net proceeds from the sales of the Company’s convertible preferred stock and warrants in a private placement in March 2010, which funding was partially offset by the increase in inventories and payment of dividends to shareholders in the first six months of 2010.
At June 30, 2010, the accounts receivable balance increased by $1,806,951, or 764%, from the balance at December 31, 2009 as a result of an increase in sales during the six months ended June 30, 2010 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2009. In addition, we have granted our customers a longer credit period as a strategy to increase our market share.
At June 30, 2010, there were no amounts due from shareholders, as compared to due from shareholders of $4,008,659 as of December 31, 2009. This is attributed to the complete repayment by shareholders during the first quarter of 2010 of the $4,008,659 due from shareholders as of December 31, 2009.

The Company's inventory as of June 30, 2010 was $8,987,628, an increase of $6,007,875, or 202%, compared to inventory at December 31, 2009.

The main reason of the increase in inventory is the Company increased its breeding capacity in the six months ended June 30, 2010 in anticipation of future sales.
At June 30, 2010 fixed assets were $905,285, mainly consisting of aerators, feeding machines and other equipment used in fish farms, representing an increase of $500,138, or 123%, compared to fixed assets as of December 31, 2009.
At June 30, 2010 biological assets were $366,200, a decrease of $66,608, or 15%, compared to biological assets as of December 31, 2009. The decrease in biological assets was due to amortization for the six months in 2010, offset by the procurement of certain breeding fish during the 2010. Biological assets consist of tilapia, snakehead, crucian carp, yellow catfish and California perch.
At June 30, 2010 accounts payable were $5,361,607, as compared to $0 as of December 31, 2009. The increase in accounts payable was due to the procurement of fish food used in the Company’s fish farms and fish fry breeding.
At June 30, 2010 other payables were $264,575, a decrease of $2,479,385, or 90%, compared to other payables as of December 31, 2009. The main item included in other payables is personal income tax payable, and the high personal income tax payable was due to the dividend payable in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, which was paid in the first quarter of 2010.
At June 30, 2010, there was no advance from clients, as compared to the advance from clients of $498,785 as of December 31, 2009. Because goods were distributed to clients in the first quarter of 2010, there was no advance from clients as of June 30, 2010.
At June 30, 2010, there were no bank loans payable as compared to a bank loan payable of $1,550,343 as of December 31, 2009. The loan was fully repaid in the six months ended June 30, 2010.
At June 30, 2010, there was no dividend payable, as compared to a dividend payable of $3,466,331 as of December 31, 2009 since the dividend was fully paid in the six months ended June 30, 2010.
At June 30, 2010 income tax payable was $251,866, a decrease of $743,447, or 75%, compared to income tax payable (which is included as a component of other payable) of $995,313 as of December 31, 2009. This is mainly because the fourth quarter is the peak season of sales normally, and therefore the income tax for the six months ended June 30, 2010 is lower than the income tax for the whole 2009 fiscal year.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company has typically financed its operations and expansion from cash flows from operations and loans from its shareholders and banks. The Company consummated a reverse merger transaction and raised approximately $7.7 million in gross proceeds in a private placement financing on March 29, 2010.
Nanhai Ke Da Heng Sheng has entered into two credit line agreements with Foshan Nanhai Allied Rural Credit Union Danzhao Credit Association with credit lines of RMB 7,000,000 (approximately $ 1,044,000 based on the conversion rate as of June 30, 2010) and RMB 5,000,000 (approximately $746,000 based on the conversion rate as of June 30, 2010), respectively. The two credit lines are secured by real estate owned by the sister-in-law of Chen Zhisheng, our Chairman of the Board. The agreements were entered into on January 14, 2009 and January 13, 2009, respectively, for two-year terms expiring in January 2011. Outstanding loans under the two credit lines bear interest at a rate of 5.4% per year. Interest is payable monthly. As of June 30, 2010, there were no outstanding loans payable
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Management's discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Our financial statements reflect the selection and application of accounting policies which require management to make significant estimates and judgments. See note 2 to our consolidated financial statements, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies." Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We believe that the following reflect the more critical accounting policies that currently affect our financial condition and results of operations.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Rongfu Aquaculture, Inc (formerly, Granto, Inc.) and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Flourishing HK, the WOFE, Nanhai Ke Da Heng Sheng, and Hainan Ke Da Heng Sheng (collectively referred to herein as the” Company”). All material inter-company accounts, transactions and profits have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company has adopted the Consolidation Topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification which requires a variable interest entity (“VIE”) to be consolidated by a company if that company is subject to a majority of the risk of loss for the VIE or is entitled to receive a majority of the VIE’s residual returns.
7
Use of 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost (determined on a weighted average basis) or market.
Derivative Liability
The Company issued warrants in connection with the Purchase Agreement dated March 29, 2010 with certain reset exercise price provisions.
Adoption of the Derivative and Hedging Topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC 815”), the Company determined that the warrants did not qualify for a scope exception under ASC 815 as they were determined to not be indexed to the Company’s stock as prescribed by ASC 815. The warrants, under ASC 815, were classified as derivative liability for the then relative fair market value of $ 3,267,797 and marked to market. For the six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company recorded a loss on change in fair value of derivative liability of $8,575,785 to mark to market for the increase in fair value of the warrants through ended June 30, 2010. Under ASC 815, the warrants will be carried at fair value and adjusted at each reporting period.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Financial Instrument Topic of the Codification requires that the Company disclose estimated fair values of financial instruments. The carrying amounts reported in the statements of financial position for current assets and current liabilities qualifying as financial instruments are a reasonable estimate of fair value.
Revenue Recognition
The Company’s revenue recognition policies are in compliance with the Revenue Recognition Topic of the Codification. Sales revenue is recognized at the date of shipment to customers when a formal arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, the delivery is completed, no other significant obligations of the Company exist and collectability is reasonably assured. Payments received before all of the relevant criteria for revenue recognition are satisfied are recorded as unearned revenue.
Income Taxes
The Company utilizes the accounting guidance, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each period end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
It is the Company’s intention to permanently reinvest earnings from activity with China and thereby indefinitely postpone repatriation of these funds to the U.S. Accordingly, no domestic deferred income tax provision has been made for U.S. income tax which could result from paying dividends to the Company.
At June 30, 2010, there were permanent tax differences relating to stock based compensation in conjunction with professional services of $191,141 and the loss on change in fair value of derivative liability of $5,307,988 to mark to market for the increase in fair value of the warrants through ended June 30, 2010.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk are cash, accounts receivable and other receivables arising from its normal business activities. The Company places its cash in what it believes to be credit-worthy financial institutions. The Company has a diversified customer base, all are in China. The Company controls credit risk related to accounts receivable through credit approvals, credit limits and monitoring procedures. The Company routinely assesses the financial strength of its customers and, based upon factors surrounding the credit risk, establishes an allowance, if required, for uncollectible accounts and, as a consequence, believes that its accounts receivable credit risk exposure beyond such allowance is limited.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company’s management, with participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. The term “disclosure controls and procedures” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) means controls and other procedures of the Company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in reports, such as this report, that it files, or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, management concluded that, as of June 30, 2010, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at that reasonable assurance level to satisfy the objectives for which they are intended.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
On March 29, 2010 the Company completed the acquisition of Rongfu Aquaculture, Inc. (“Rongfu”) pursuant to a share exchange agreement. The acquisition was accounted for as a recapitalization effected by a share exchange. Rongfu is considered the acquirer for accounting and financial reporting purposes. Prior to the acquisition the Company was a shell company.
During the preparation of our financial statements for the quarter ended September 30, 2010, we determined that there existed deficiencies in controls relating to the following and that it was necessary for the Company to restate to its previously issued financial statements as of December 31, 2009 and the quarters ended March 31, 2009 and March 31, 2010 and June 30, 2009 and June 30, 2010 for the following reasons:
1. The number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding as of December 31, 2009 and the weighted average common shares outstanding for the quarters ended March 31, 2009, June 30, 2009 and March 31, 2010 were overstated in such financial statements and earnings per share for the quarters ended March 31, 2009, June 30, 2009 and March 31, 2010 were understated in such financial statements.
2. The value attributed to shares of the Company’s common stock which were issued for prior services on March 29, 2010 should have been expensed in the Company’s income statements for the quarter ended March 31, 2010 and for the six months ended June 30, 2010.
3. $7,700,000 of Preferred Stock included under Stockholders’ Equity on the Company’s balance sheets as of March 31, 2010 and June 30, 2010 should be reclassified as Temporary Equity.
We have further concluded that such deficiencies represented material weaknesses. As a result, we concluded that the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting were not effective at June 30, 2010.
The Company is in the process of enhancing its financial reporting by implementation of stronger internal controls through the recruitment of high caliber personnel with strong financial reporting backgrounds and the establishment of effective checking and reviewing procedures. In 2011 we plan to enrich the accounting knowledge of all of our financial and accounting personnel by holding training to increase the awareness and use of controls and transparency by all staff and by redesigning document flows and establishing strong control points.
