China Carbon Graphite Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

(1) Organization and Business

China Carbon Graphite Group, Inc. (the “Company”), through its subsidiaries, is engaged in the manufacture of graphite-based products in the People’s Republic of China (“China” or the “PRC”). The Company’s products are used in the manufacturing process of other products, particularly non-ferrous metals and steel, and are incorporated in various types of products or processes, such as atomic reactors. The Company manufactures and sells three types of products throughout China and internationally: graphite electrodes; fine grain graphite; and high purity graphite.

The Company was incorporated on February 13, 2003 in Nevada under the name Achievers Magazine Inc. In connection with the reverse merger transaction described below, the Company’s corporate name was changed to China Carbon Graphite Group, Inc. on January 30, 2008.

On December 17, 2007, the Company completed a share exchange pursuant to a share exchange agreement with Sincere Investment (PTC), Ltd. (“Sincere”), a British Virgin Islands corporation. Sincere was the sole stockholder of Talent International Investment Limited (“Talent”), a British Virgin Islands corporation, which is the sole stockholder of XingheYongle Carbon Co., Ltd. (“Yongle”), a company organized under the laws of the PRC. Pursuant to the share exchange agreement, the Company issued 9,388,172 shares of common stock to Sincere in exchange for all of the outstanding on stock of Talent, and Talent became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Upon completion of the reverse merger, the Company’s business became the business of Talent, its subsidiaries and its affiliated variable interest entities.

Talent owns 100% of the stock of Yongle, which is a wholly foreign-owned enterprise organized under the laws of the PRC. Yongle is party to a series of contractual agreements with XingheXingyong Carbon Co., Ltd. (“Xingyong”), a corporation organized under the laws of the PRC. These agreements allow the Company to operate its business in the PRC and to control the management of Xingyong and receive economic remuneration from Xingyong’s business. Xingyong’s principal stockholder is Mr. Denyong Jin, the General Manager of the Company’s China operations. As a result, Xingyong is a variable interest entity and the operations of Xingyong are consolidated with those of the Company for financial reporting purposes.

Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 810-10-45-25 calls for balance sheet disclosure of (a) assets of a consolidated variable interest entity (VIE) that can be used only to settle obligations of the consolidated VIE, and (b) liabilities of a consolidated VIE for which creditors (or beneficial interest owners) do not have recourse to the general credit of the primary beneficiary. The entire operating business of the Company is conducted by Xingyong and the consolidated balance sheet of the Company reflects Xingyong’s balance sheet. There are no such assets or liabilities on the balance sheet of Xingyong. The Operating Agreement dated December 7, 2007 provides that Yongle is a full-recourse guarantor of all obligations of Xingyong, and Xingyong has pledged all of its assets to Yongle. The Consulting Agreement of that date includes an assignment of all of the revenues of Xingyong to Yongle. Yongle is 100% owned by Talent and Talent is 100% owned by the Company. Accordingly, there are no assets or liabilities of Xingyong that in which the Company does not share.

The consolidated financial statements presented herein consolidate the financial statements of China Carbon Graphite, Inc. with the financial statements of its subsidiaries, Talent and Yongle. Also consolidated are the financial statements of Xingyong. The financial statements of Xingyong are consolidated with our financial statements because Xingyong is a variable interest entity. The entire operating business operations of the Company are located in Xingyong. Therefore the financial position and results of operations and cash flows of the Company are significantly influenced by the results of Xingyong, the VIE. Talent is party to four agreements dated December 7, 2007 with the owners of the registered equity of Xingyong. The agreements transfer to Talent benefits and all of the risk arising from the operations of Xingyong, as well as complete managerial authority over the operations of Xingyong.

The following paragraphs briefly describe the key provisions of each contractual agreement that prescribes the Company’s relationship with Xingyong:

Exclusive Technical Consulting and Services Agreement . Technical consulting and services agreement entered into on December 7, 2007 between Yongle and Xingyong, pursuant to which Yongle has agreed to provide technical and consulting services related to the business operations of Xingyong. As consideration for such services, Xingyong has agreed to pay to Yongle a service fee equal to 80% to 100% of the profits of Xingyong. The exact fee is calculated and paid on a quarterly basis, and is determined based on a number of factors, including but not limited to the complexity of the services provided and the commercial value of the services provided. The exclusive technical consulting and services agreement has a 10 year term. Yongle may extend the term of such agreement. The parties may terminate the agreement, prior to its expiration, upon the mutual consent of Yongle and Xingyong.

Business Operations Agreement. Pursuant to the business operations agreement entered into on December 7, 2007 between Yongle, Xingyong, and the shareholders of Xingyong, Xingyong has agreed not to conduct any material transaction or corporate action without obtaining the prior written consent of Yongle. Furthermore, Xingyong and its shareholders have agreed to implement proposals made by Yongle with respect to the operations of Xingyong’s business and the appointment of directors and officers of Xingyong. Yongle may terminate the business operations agreement at any time. The term of the business operations agreement is indefinite.

Option Agreement . Yongle entered into an option agreement on December 7, 2007 with Xingyong and each of the shareholders of Xingyong, pursuant to which Yongle has an exclusive option to purchase, or to designate another qualified person to purchase, to the extent permitted by PRC law and foreign investment policies, part or all of the equity interests in Xingyong owned by the shareholders of Xingyong. To the extent permitted by the PRC laws, the purchase price for the entire equity interest shall equal the actual price designated by Yongle to the extent permitted by relevant laws and regulations. The option agreement has a 10 year term. Upon the request of Yongle, the parties shall extend the term of the option agreement.

Equity Pledge Agreement . Pursuant to an equity pledge agreement, dated December 7, 2007, each of the shareholders of Xingyong pledged his equity interest in Xingyong to Yongle to secure Xingyong’s obligations under the VIE agreements described above. In addition, the shareholders of Xingyong agreed not to transfer, sell, pledge, dispose of or create any encumbrance on any equity interests in Xingyong that would affect Yongle’s interests. The equity pledge agreement will expire when Xingyong fully performs its obligations under the various VIE agreements described above.

Because the relationship between Xingyong and Yongle is entirely contractual, the Company’s interest in Xingyong depends on the enforceability of those agreements under the laws of the PRC. The Company is not aware of any judicial decision as to the enforceability of similar agreements under PRC law. However, since the owner of the registered equity of Xingyong is Mr. Jin, the Company’s major shareholder and General Manager, the Company does not believe that there is a significant risk that Xingyong will seek to terminate the relationship or otherwise breach the agreements. Accordingly, the Company believes that consolidation of the financial statements of Xingyong with those of the Company is appropriate. The shareholders of Xingyong do not have any kick-back rights.

Acquisition in December 2013

On December 23, 2013, we acquired Golden Ivy Limited, a British Virgin Island company (“BVI Co.,”). Pursuant to the terms of the acquisition, we will issue an aggregate of 5,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, to the former shareholders of BVI Co. in exchange for 100% of the issued and outstanding equity of BVI Co.. BVI Co. then becomes a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The shares were issued on January 16, 2014.

BVI Co. currently has two business operations as follows (collectively the “Business”):

●

Manufacture of Graphene Oxide and graphite bipolar plates. Graphene Oxide has wide applications as a conductive agent, such as in lithium ion batteries, super capacitors, rubber and plastic additives, conductive ink, special coating, transparent conductive thin films and chips. Graphite bipolar plates are primarily used in solar power storage.

●

A business-to-business and business-to-consumers Internet portal (www.roycarbon.com) for graphite related products. Vendors can sell raw materials, industrial commodities and consumer (household) commodities to both business and consumers through the website by paying a fee for each transaction conducted through the website.

The Business and the facilities related thereto are all located in the People’s Republic of China (“China”). The Business is conducted by Royal Elite New Energy Science and Technology (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. (“Royal Shanghai”), a wholly foreign owned enterprise under laws of China. Royal Shanghai is wholly owned by Royal Elite International Limited, a Hong Kong company, (“Royal HK”), which is wholly owned by BVI Co. The Business currently generates minimal sales.

Royal Shanghai was set up in Shanghai on June 9, 2010. Royal HK was set up in Hong Kong on January 8, 2010.

Organizational Structure Chart

The following chart sets forth our organizational structure:

Liquidity and Working Capital Deficit

As of March 31, 2014 and as of December 31, 2013, the Company managed to operate its business with a negative working capital. The Company has been able to operate with negative working capital primarily due to its ability to borrow substantial short-term and long-term bank loans and notes payables from banks with the support of the local government in lnner Mongolia.

The Company Law of the PRC applicable to Chinese companies provides that net after tax income should be allocated by the following rules:

1.	10% of after tax income to be allocated to a statutory surplus reserve until the reserve amounts to 50% of the company’s registered capital.

2.	If the cumulative balance of statutory surplus reserve is not enough to make up the Company’s cumulative prior years’ losses, the current year’s after tax income should be first used to make up the losses before the statutory surplus reverse is drawn.

3.	Allocation can be made to the discretionary surplus reserve, if such a reserve is approved at the meeting of the equity owners.

Therefore, the Company is required to maintain a statutory reserve in China that limits any equity distributions to its shareholders. The maximum amount of the shareholders has not been reached. The Company has never distributed earnings to shareholders and has no intentions to do so.

(2) Going Concern

The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As of and for the period ended March 31, 2014, the Company has incurred significant operating losses, working capital deficit, and negative net cash flows from operating activities. While the Company’s sales revenue declined significantly for the period ended March 31, 2014 as compared to the same period prior year, the demand for the Company’s products remains highly uncertain. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to cease operations. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

Management’s Plan to Continue as a Going Concern

In order to continue as a going concern, the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources. Management’s plans to obtain such resources for the Company include (1) obtaining capital from the sale of its equity securities, (2) sales of its products, and (3) short-term or long-term borrowings from banks, stockholders or other party(ies) when needed. However, management cannot provide any assurance that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans.

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraph and eventually to secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations.

(3) Basis for Preparation of the Financial Statements

Management acknowledges its responsibility for the preparation of the accompanying interim consolidated financial statements which reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary in its opinion for a fair statement of its consolidated financial position and the results of its operations for the interim period presented. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the summary of significant accounting policies and notes to consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Form 10-K annual report for the year ended December 31, 2013. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2013 has been derived from the audited financial statements. The results of the three months ended March 31, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year ending December 31, 2014.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements for China Carbon Graphite Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries and variable interest entity, have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X.

The Company maintains its books and accounting records in Renminbi (“RMB”), but its reporting currency is U.S. dollars.

The financial statements have been prepared in order to present the financial position and results of operations of the Company, its subsidiaries and Xingyong, a variable interest entity whose financial condition is consolidated with the Company pursuant to ASC Topic 810-10, Consolidation, in accordance with U.S. GAAP. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

(4) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect the application of certain significant accounting policies as described in this note and elsewhere in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes.

Reclassifications

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on net earnings and financial position.

Use of estimates

The preparation of these financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of net sales and expenses during the reporting period. Some of the significant estimates include values and lives assigned to acquired property, equipment and intangible assets, reserves for customer returns and allowances, uncollectible accounts receivable, slow moving, obsolete and/or damaged inventory and stock warrant valuation. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Cash and cash equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with maturity periods of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The carrying amounts reported in the accompanying balance sheet for cash and cash equivalents approximate their fair value. Substantially all of the Company’s cash is held in bank accounts in the PRC and is not protected by FDIC insurance or any other similar insurance. The Company’s bank account in the United States is protected by FDIC insurance.

Restricted cash

Restricted cash represents amounts held by a bank as security for short-term bank notes payable and therefore is subject to withdrawal restrictions. As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, these amounts totaled $34,823,380 and $35,643,666, respectively. The restricted cash is expected to be released within the next twelve months after the bank notes have matured. Upon release the restricted cash will be used to repay the liabilities or as security for new debt.

Accounts receivable

Trade receivables are recognized and carried at the original invoice amount less allowance for any uncollectible amounts. An allowance for doubtful accounts is made when collection of the full amount is no longer probable. Bad debts are written off as incurred. Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. Management reviews the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts on an ongoing basis, using historical collection trends and aging of receivables. Management also periodically evaluates individual customer’s financial condition, credit history, and the current economic conditions to make adjustments in the allowance when it is considered necessary.

Inventory

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market. The cost of inventories comprises all costs of purchases, costs of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. The costs of conversion of inventories include fixed and variable production overhead, taking into account the stage of completion. Cost is determined using the weighted average method. Market value represents the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs necessary to complete the sale. The Company periodically reviews historical sales activity to determine excess, slow moving items and potentially obsolete items and also evaluates the impact of any anticipated changes in future demand. The Company provides inventory allowances based on excess and obsolete inventories determined principally by customer demand. Impairment of inventories is recorded in cost of goods sold.

For the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company has provision for inventory in regards to slow moving or obsolete items of $0 and $0, respectively. As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company has provision for inventory in regards to slow moving or obsolete items of $20 ,858,557 and $21,419,154, respectively.

Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment is stated at the historical cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation on property, plant and equipment is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets for both financial and income tax reporting purposes as follows:

Buildings	25 - 40 years
Machinery and equipment	10 - 20 years
Motor vehicles	5 years

Expenditures for renewals and betterments are capitalized while repairs and maintenance costs are normally charged to the statement of operations in the year in which they are incurred. In situations where it can be clearly demonstrated that the expenditure has resulted in an increase in the future economic benefits expected to be obtained from the use of the asset, the expenditure is capitalized as an additional cost of the asset.

Upon sale or disposal of an asset, the historical cost and related accumulated depreciation or amortization of such asset were removed from their respective accounts and any gain or loss is recorded in the statements of income.

The Company reviews the carrying value of property, plant, and equipment for impairment whenever events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable from the estimated future cash flows expected to result from its use and eventual disposition. In cases where undiscounted expected future cash flows are less than the carrying value, an impairment loss is recognized equal to an amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of assets. The factors considered by management in performing this assessment include current operating results, trends and prospects, the manner in which the property is used, and the effects of obsolescence, demand, competition and other economic factors. Based on this assessment, $0 and $0 of impairment expenses for property, plant, and equipment recorded in operating expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, $19,214,221 and $19,730,625 were recorded as impairment for property, plant and equipment, respectively .

Construction in progress

Construction in progress represents the costs incurred in connection with the construction of buildings or additions to the Company’s plant facilities. No depreciation is provided for construction in progress until such time as the assets are completed and placed into service. The Company has capitalized interest expenses of $319,083 and $178,177 for the three months ended at March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

The Company reviews the carrying value of construction in progress for impairment whenever events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable from the estimated future cash flows expected to result from its use and eventual disposition. In cases where undiscounted expected future cash flows are less than the carrying value, an impairment loss is recognized equal to an amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of assets. The factors considered by management in performing this assessment include current operating results, trends and prospects, the manner in which the property is used, and the effects of obsolescence, demand, competition and other economic factors. Based on this assessment, there was no impairment recorded for construction in progress during the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013. As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, $5,122,824 and $5,260,506 were recorded as impairment for construction in progress, respectively.

Land use rights

The Company has land use rights of 368,804 square meters used for operations in Xinghe County, Inner Mongolia, China. The land use rights have terms of 50 years, with the land use right relating to 112,171 square meters expiring in 2052 and the land use right with respect to 256,634 square meters expiring in 2053. In addition, in 2011, the local Chinese government and the Company agreed on terms for the land use rights of 387,838 square meters of land located adjacent to the Company’s facilities. The Company was not required to sign a land use right agreement or pay a fee but we have obtained its land use right certificate. In exchange, the Company will allow public use of this 387,838 square meters of land, provide improvements to the land and keep the land in good condition. The land use right has a term of 50 years, with such term expiring in January 2060. The value of the land is estimated to be $14,000,000. We used level 1, the most observable market inputs, to arrive at fair market value. In particular, we used market price of land use right in the open market to determine the fair market value of the public use land. The land use right is about 387,838 square meters. The market price for each square meter for industrial use land use right in that area is about $41. The Company has not accrued the liability or recorded the land use right asset for this property in accordance with ASC 450, Contingencies. Because of the relationship and agreement with the local government to keep provide improvements to the land and keep it in good condition, the Company believes that it is unlikely to have to pay for the land use right. The bank allows, and the Company uses, this land use right as collateral for its short-term bank loans.

The Company reviews the carrying value of land use rights for impairment whenever events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable from the estimated future cash flows expected to result from its use and eventual disposition. In cases where undiscounted expected future cash flows are less than the carrying value, an impairment loss is recognized equal to an amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of assets. The factors considered by management in performing this assessment include current operating results, trends and prospects, the manner in which the property is used, and the effects of obsolescence, demand, competition and other economic factors. Based on this assessment, no impairment of land use rights was deemed necessary for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Stock-based compensation

Stock-based compensation includes (i) common stock awards granted to employees and directors for services which are accounted for under FASB ASC 718, Compensation–Stock Compensation” and (ii) common stock awards granted to consultants which are accounted for under FASB ASC 505-50, Equity–Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees.

All grants of common stock awards and stock options to employees and directors are recognized in the financial statements based on their grant date fair values. The Company has elected to recognize compensation expense using the straight-line method for all common stock awards and stock options granted with service conditions that have a graded vesting schedule, with a corresponding charge to additional paid-in capital.

Common stock awards are granted to directors for services provided. The vested portions of common stock awards granted but not yet issued are recorded in common stock to be issued.

Common stock awards issued to consultants represent common stock granted to non-employees in exchange for services at fair value. The measurement dates for such awards are set at the dates that the contracts are entered into as the awards are non-forfeitable and vest immediately. The measurement date fair value is then recognized over the service period as if the Company has paid cash for such service.

The Company estimates fair value of common stock awards based on the number of shares granted and the quoted price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant.

Foreign currency translation

The reporting currency of the Company is U.S. dollars. The Company uses RMB as its functional currency. The results of operations and cash flows are translated at average exchange rates during the period, and assets and liabilities are translated at the unified exchange rates at the balance sheet dates, and equity is translated at the historical exchange rates. As a result, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the statements of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding accounts on the balance sheets. Translation adjustments resulting from this process are included in accumulated other comprehensive income in the statements of stockholders’ equity. Translation adjustments for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 were $380,249 and $146,277, respectively. The cumulative translation adjustment and effect of exchange rate changes on cash for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 were $(8,868) and $3,283, respectively. Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the results of operations as incurred.

Assets and liabilities were translated at 6.22 RMB and 6.05 RMB to $1.00 at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. The equity accounts were stated at their historical rates. The average translation rates applied to income statements for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 were 6.10 RMB and 6.22 RMB to $1.00, respectively. Cash flows are also translated at average translation rates for the period; therefore, amounts reported on the statement of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the balance sheet.

Revenue recognition

We recognize revenue in accordance with ASC 605-25, Revenue Recognition, which states that revenue should be recognized when the following criteria are met: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) the service has been rendered; (3) the selling price is fixed or determinable; and (4) collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. Sales represent the invoiced value of goods, net of value added tax (“VAT”), if any, and are recognized upon delivery of goods and passage of title.

In accordance with ASC 605-25, the Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, transfer of title has occurred or services have been rendered, the selling price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured.

The Company derives revenues from the manufacturing and distribution of graphite based products. The Company recognizes its revenues net of VAT. The Company is subject to VAT, which is levied on a majority of the products, at a rate ranging from 13% to 17% on the invoiced value of sales. Output VAT is borne by customers in addition to the invoiced value of sales and input VAT is borne by the Company in addition to the invoiced value of purchases to the extent not refunded for export sales.

The Company recognizes revenue upon receipt of the delivery confirmation provided by the customer or distributor. The Company does not provide chargeback or price protection rights to the distributors. The distributor only places purchase orders with the Company once it has confirmed the sale with a third party because this is a specialized business, which dictates that the Company will not manufacture the products until the purchase order is received. The Company allows its customers to return products only if its products are later determined by the Company to be defective. Based on the Company’s historical experience, product returns have been insignificant throughout all of its product lines. Therefore, the Company does not estimate deductions or allowances for sales returns. If sales returns occur, they are taken against revenue when products are returned from customers. Sales are presented net of any discounts given to customers. Interest income is recognized when earned. The Company experienced no returns for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013.

Cost of goods sold

Cost of goods sold consists primarily of the costs of raw materials, freight charges, direct labor, depreciation of plants and machinery, warehousing and overhead associated with the manufacturing process and commission expenses. Cost of goods sold also includes impairment charge of inventories.

Shipping and handling costs

The Company follows ASC 605-45, Handling Costs, and Shipping Costs, formerly known as Emerging Issues Task Force No. 00-10, Accounting for Shipping and Handling Fees and Costs. The Company classifies shipping and handling costs paid on behalf of its customers in selling expenses. For the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, shipping and handling costs were $8,424 and $3,877, respectively.

Segment reporting

ASC 280, Segment Reporting, formerly known as Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131, Disclosure about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information, requires use of the “management approach” model for segment reporting. Under this model, segment reporting is consistent with the manner that the Company’s management organizes segments within the company for making operating decisions and assessing performance. Reportable segments are based on products and services, geography, legal structure, management structure or any other manner in which management disaggregates a company.

Because the Company sells only carbon graphite products to Chinese distributors and end users, it has only one business segment.

Taxation

Taxation on profits earned in the PRC has been calculated based on the estimated assessable profits for the year at the rates of taxation prevailing in the PRC after taking into account the benefits from any special tax credits or “tax holidays” allowed in the county of operations.

The Company does not accrue U.S. income tax since it has no operations in the United States. Its operating subsidiaries are organized and located in the PRC and do not conduct any business in the United States.

In 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASC, 740 Income Tax, formerly known as FIN 48, which clarifies the application of SFAS 109 by defining a criterion that an individual income tax position must meet for any part of the benefit of that position to be recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and provides guidance on measurement, recognition, classification, accounting for interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. In accordance with the transition provisions, the Company adopted FIN 48 effective January 1, 2007.

The Company recognizes that virtually all tax positions in the PRC are not free from some degree of uncertainty due to tax law and policy changes by the state. The Company cannot reasonably quantify political risk factors and thus must depend on guidance issued by current government officials.

Based on all known facts and circumstances and current tax law, the Company believes that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits as of March 31, 2014 is not material to its results of operations, financial condition or cash flows. The Company also believes that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits as of March 31, 2014, if recognized, would not have a material effect on its effective tax rate. The Company further believes that there are no tax positions, including the Enterprise Income Tax holiday from Xing He District Local Tax Authority, for which it is reasonably possible, based on current Chinese tax law and policy, that the unrecognized tax benefits will significantly increase or decrease over the next twelve months producing, individually or in the aggregate, a material effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

Enterprise income tax

The Company has been recognized as a high technology and science company by the Ministry of Science and Technology of the PRC. Therefore, Xing He District Local Tax Authority in the Nei Mongol province granted the Company a 100% tax holiday from the enterprise income tax for 10 years from 2008 through 2017. When the tax holiday ends, based on the present tax law and the Company’s status as a high technology and science company, the Company will be subject to a corporate income tax rate of 15% effective in 2018.

The enterprise income tax is calculated on the basis of the statutory profit as defined in the PRC tax laws. This statutory profit is computed differently than the Company’s net income under U.S. GAAP.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets, including tax loss and credit carry forwards, and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect of deferred tax assets and liabilities from a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred income tax expense represents the change during the period in the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities. The components of the deferred tax assets and liabilities are individually classified as current and non-current based on their characteristics. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

Value added tax

The Provisional Regulations of the PRC Concerning Value Added Tax promulgated by the State Council came into effect on January 1, 1994. Under these regulations and the Implementing Rules of the Provisional Regulations of the PRC Concerning Value Added Tax, value added tax (“VAT”) is imposed on goods sold in or imported into the PRC and on processing, repair and replacement services provided within the PRC.

VAT payable in the PRC is charged on an aggregated basis at a rate of 13% or 17% (depending on the type of goods involved) on the full price collected for the goods sold or, in the case of taxable services provided, at a rate of 17% on the charges for the taxable services provided, but excluding, in respect of both goods and services, any amount paid in respect of VAT included in the price or charges, and less any deductible value added tax already paid by the taxpayer on purchases of goods and services in the same financial year. VAT payable (recoverable), which is included in other payables, was $171,329 and $(23,055) as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

Contingent liabilities and contingent assets

A contingent liability is a possible obligation that arises from past events and whose existence will only be confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the Company. It can also be a present obligation arising from past events that is not recognized because it is not probable that the Company will incur a liability or obligations as a result. A contingent liability, which might occur but is not probable, is not recorded but is disclosed in the notes to the financial statements. The Company will recognize a liability or obligation when it is probable that the Company will incur it.

A contingent asset is an asset, which could possibly arise from past events and whose existence will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain events not wholly within the control of the Company. Contingent assets are not recorded but are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements when it is likely that the Company will recognize an economic benefit. When the benefit is virtually certain, the asset is recognized.

Retirement benefit costs

According to PRC regulations on pensions, the Company contributes to a defined contribution retirement program organized by the municipal government in the province in which the Company is registered and all qualified employees are eligible to participate in the program. Contributions to the program are calculated at 23.5% of the employees’ salaries above a fixed threshold amount and the employees contribute 2% to 8% while the Company contributes the remaining 15.5% to 21.5%. The Company has no other material obligation for the payment of retirement benefits beyond the annual contributions under this program.

Fair value of financial instruments

The Company has adopted ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in U.S. GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. It does not require any new fair value measurements, but provides guidance on how to measure fair value by providing a fair value hierarchy used to classify the source of the information. It establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy of valuation techniques based on observable and unobservable inputs, which may be used to measure fair value and include the following:

●	Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

●	Level 2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the assets or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instruments.

●	Level 3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value.

The fair value of the 2009 Warrants to purchase 200,000 shares of common stock was $390 and $808 at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. The Company recognized a gain of $418 from the change in fair value of these warrants for the three months ended March 31, 204.

The fair value of the 2009 Series B Warrants to purchase 804,200 shares of common stock was $9,227 and $11,106 at March 31, 2014, and December 31, 2013, respectively. The Company recognized a gain of $1,879 from the change in fair value of these warrants for the three months ended March 31, 2014.

The fair value of 2010 Series B warrants to purchase 100,000 shares of common stock was $1,355 and $1,553 at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. The Company recognized a gain of $198 from the change in fair value of these warrants for the three months ended March 31, 2014.

In summary, the Company recorded a total amount of $2,495 of changes in fair value of warrants in the Consolidate statement of income and comprehensive income for the three months ended March 31, 2014. Each reporting period, the change in fair value is recorded into other income (expense).

Warrants referred to in the preceding paragraphs do not trade in an active securities market, and as such, the Company estimates the fair value of these warrants using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following assumptions:

	March 31, 2014			December 31, 2013
2007 Warrants
Annual dividend yield		-			-
Expected life (years)		-			-
Risk-free interest rate		0.18	%		0.18	%
Expected volatility		163	%		152	%

	March 31, 2014			December 31, 2013
2009 Warrants
Annual dividend yield		-			-
Expected life (years)		0.46			0.71
Risk-free interest rate		0.18	%		0.18	%
Expected volatility		163	%		152	%

	March 31, 2014			December 31, 2013
2009 Series B Warrants
Annual dividend yield		-			-
Expected life (years)		0.73			0.98
Risk-free interest rate		0.18	%		0.18	%
Expected volatility		163	%		152	%

	March 31, 2014			December 31, 2013
2010 Series B Warrants
Annual dividend yield		-			-
Expected life (years)		0.78			1.03
Risk-free interest rate		0.18	%		0.18	%
Expected volatility		163	%		152	%

The carrying amount of restricted cash, other receivables, advance to vendors, advances from customers, other payables, accrued liabilities and short-term loans are reasonable estimates of their fair value because of the short-term nature of these items.

The following table sets forth by level within the fair value hierarchy of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities that was accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis or for purposes of disclosures as of March 31, 2014:

	Carrying Value at March 31,		Fair Value Measurement at March 31, 2014
	2014		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Warrant liability	$	10,972		-		-	$	10,972
Notes payable	$	59,841,709		-	$	59,841,709		-

The following table sets forth by level within the fair value hierarchy of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities that was used to calculate fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2013:

	Carrying Value at December		Fair Value Measurement at December 31, 2013
	31, 2013		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Warrant liability	$	13,467		-		-	$	13,467
Notes payable	$	68,553,116		-	$	68,553,116		-

The Company uses the black-scholes valuation method approach when determining fair values of its Level 3 recurring fair value measurements. Certain unobservable units for these assets are offered quotes, lack of marketability and volatility. For Level 3 measurements, significant increases or decreases in either of those inputs in isolation could result in a significantly lower or higher fair value measurement. In general, a significant change in the calculated volatility of the Company’s stock price could negatively affect the fair value of the warrant liability.

Summary of warrants outstanding:

	Warrants		Weighted Average Exercise Price
Outstanding as of December 31, 2013		1,229,200	$	1.51
Granted		-		-
Exercised		-		-
Cancelled		-		-
Outstanding as of March 31, 2014		1,229,200	$	1.51

Earnings (loss) per share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock, common stock equivalents and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during each period. Potentially dilutive shares of common stock consist of the common stock issuable upon the conversion of convertible debt, preferred stock and warrants. The Company has outstanding warrants to purchase 1,229,200 shares of common stock at an exercise price in the range of $1.30 - $2.00 per share. The Company uses if-converted method to calculate the dilutive preferred stock and treasury stock method to calculate the dilutive shares issuable upon exercise of warrants.

The following table sets forth the computation of the number of net income per share for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013:

	March 31, 2014			March 31, 2013
Weighted average shares of common stock outstanding (basic)		30,602,251			25,103,518
Shares issuable upon conversion of Series B Preferred Stock		-			-
Weighted average shares of common stock outstanding (diluted)		30,602,251			25,103,518
Net (loss) available to common shareholders	$	(2,722,440	)	$	(1,506,805	)
Net (loss) per shares of common stock (basic)	$	(0.09	)	$	(0.06	)
Net (loss) per shares of common stock (diluted)	$	(0.09	)	$	(0.06	)

For the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company excluded 300,000 shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of preferred stock, because such issuance would be anti-dilutive.

For the three months ended March 31, 2014 , the Company excluded 1,229,200 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of warrants, because such issuance would be anti-dilutive.

Accumulated other comprehensive income

The Company follows ASC 220, Comprehensive Income, formerly known as SFAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income, to recognize the elements of comprehensive income. Comprehensive income is comprised of net income and all changes to the statements of stockholders’ equity, except those due to investments by stockholders, changes in paid-in capital and distributions to stockholders. For the Company, comprehensive income for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 included net income and foreign currency translation adjustments.

Related parties

Parties are considered to be related to the Company if the parties that, directly or indirectly, through one or more intermediaries, control, are controlled by, or are under common control with the Company. Related parties also include principal owners of the Company, its management, members of the immediate families of principal owners of the Company and its management and other parties with which the Company may deal if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests. Transactions with related parties are disclosed in the financial statements.

Recent accounting pronouncements

The Company has reviewed all recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and does not believe the future adoption of any such pronouncements will have a material impact on its financial condition or the results of its operations.

In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-08, “Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360): Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity”. The amendments in the ASU change the criteria for reporting discontinued operations while enhancing disclosures in this area. It also addresses sources of confusion and inconsistent application related to financial reporting of discontinued operations guidance in U.S. GAAP. Under the new guidance, only disposals representing a strategic shift in operations should be presented as discontinued operations. In addition, the new guidance requires expanded disclosures about discontinued operations that will provide financial statement users with more information about the assets, liabilities, income, and expenses of discontinued operations. The amendments in the ASU are effective in the first quarter of 2015 for public organizations with calendar year ends. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption to have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.

(5) Concentration of Business and Credit Risk

Substantially all of the Company’s bank accounts are in banks located in the PRC and are not covered by any type of protection similar to that provided by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) on funds held in U.S. banks. The Company’s bank account in the United States is covered by FDIC insurance.

Because the Company’s operations are located in the PRC, this may give rise to significant foreign currency risks due to fluctuations in and the volatility of foreign exchange rates between U.S. dollars and RMB.

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist principally of cash, trade accounts receivables and inventories, the balances of which are stated on the balance sheet. The Company places its cash in banks located in China. Concentration of credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivables is limited due to the diversity of the Company’s customers who are located in different regions of China. The Company does not require collateral or other security to support financial instruments subject to credit risk.

For the three months ended March 31, 2014, three customers accounted for 10% or more of sales revenues, representing 36.3%, 29.5% and 14.8%, respectively of the total sales. For the three months ended March 31, 2013, three customers accounted for 10% or more of sales revenues, representing 36%, 23% and 23%, respectively of the total sales. As of March 31, 2014, there were two customers that constituted 41.7% and 11.5% of the accounts receivable. As of December 31, 2013, there were two customers that constituted 40.8% and 11.7% of the accounts receivable.

For the three months ended March 31, 2014, one supplier accounted for 10% or more of our total purchases, representing 94.1%. For the three months ended March 31, 2013, two suppliers accounted for 10% or more of our total purchases, representing 59.7% and 22.6%, respectively.

For the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company had insurance expense of $491 and $0 respectively. Accrual for losses is not recognized until such time as a loss has occurred.

(6) Income Taxes

Under the Provisional Regulations of The People’s Republic of China Concerning Income Tax on Enterprises promulgated by the PRC, which took effect on January 1, 2008, domestic and foreign companies pay a unified corporate income tax of 25%, except for a 15% corporate income tax rate for qualified high technology and science enterprises.

The Company has been granted a 100% tax holiday from enterprise income tax from the Xing He District Local Tax Authority for 10 years from 2008 through 2017.

A reconciliation of the provision for income taxes with amounts determined by the PRC statutory income tax rate to income before income taxes is as follows:

	Three months ended March 31,
	2014		2013
Computed tax at the PRC statutory rate of 15%	$	-	$	-
Benefit of tax holiday		-		-
Income tax expenses per books	$	-	$	-

(7) Accounts Receivable, net

The Company establishes an individualized credit and collection policy based on each individual customer’s credit history. The Company does not have a uniform policy that applies equally to all customers. The collection period usually ranges from three months to twelve months.

The Company grants extended payment terms to customers if based on the following factors: (a) whether or not the Company views a real need, from the customer’s perspective, for the extension and (b) how critical the Company’s relationship with the customer and is the customer the Company’s long-term business. The Company grants extended payment terms only when the Company believes that the payment will be collectible at the end of the term.

Overview

We are engaged in the manufacture of graphite-based products in the PRC. Our products are used in the manufacturing process of other products, particularly non-ferrous metals and steel, and are incorporated in various types of products or processes, such as atomic reactors. We currently manufacture and sell primarily the following types of graphite products:

●	graphite electrodes;

●	fine grain graphite;

●	high purity graphite ；

●	graphite oxide; and

●	graphite bipolar plates.

We also operate a business-to-business and business-to-consumers Internet portal (www.roycarbon.com) for graphite related products. Vendors can sell raw materials, industrial commodities and consumer (household) commodities to both business and consumers through the website by paying a fee for each transaction conducted through the website.

Based on information we receive about our industry in the course of our business, we believe that we are the largest wholesale supplier of fine grain graphite and high purity graphite in China and one of China’s largest producers and suppliers of graphite products overall. Historically approximately 40% of our products are sold directly to end users in China, primarily consisting of steel manufacturers. All other sales are made to over 200 distributors located throughout 22 provinces in China. Our distributors then sell our products to end users both in China and in foreign countries, including, among others, Japan, the United States, Spain, England, South Korea and India. In 2013, our revenues and profits decreased substantially from 2012 due to a decrease in demand for our products, which resulted from the struggles of steel companies in China relating to severe oversupply. In particular, the market for fine grain graphite and high purity graphite products has experienced extremely low demand. We are experiencing competitive market conditions. This trend continues in 2014. Refer to discussion in greater detail below under the heading “Results of Operations.”

As of and for the period ended March 31, 2014, the Company has incurred significant operating losses, working capital deficit, and negative net cash flows from operating activities. While the Company’s sales revenue declined significantly for the period ended March 31, 2014 as compared to the same period prior year, the demand for the Company’s products remains highly uncertain. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to cease operations. In order to continue as a going concern, the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources. Management’s plans to obtain such resources for the Company include (1) obtaining capital from the sale of its equity securities, (2) sales of its products, and (3) short-term or long-term borrowings from banks, stockholders or other party(ies) when needed. However, management cannot provide any assurance that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans.

During the three months ended March 31, 2014, we had sales of $1,311,755, compared to sales of $3,060,918 for the three months ended March 31, 2013, a decrease of $1,749,163, or approximately 57.1%. The decrease of sales is caused by the struggling steel and real estate industries. Consequently, demand for graphite decreased.

Our gross margin for the three months ended March 31, 2014 was a gross loss of (32.1)%, compared to gross loss of (8.5)% for the three months ended March 31, 2013. Our sales did not offset the costs we incurred during this period for raw materials, utilities, labor, depreciation, and impairment of inventory. Sales of our products decreased significantly during the three months ended March 31, 2014 due to continued decrease of demand caused by struggling of steel industry. The decrease of the gross margin is because of the change of the product mix. In the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company sold a higher percentage of lower margin products, compared to the same period of 2013.

Our cash increased and our accounts receivables decreased as of March 31, 2014 compared to the December 31, 2013, while collectability of our receivables remained highly probable. We believe that our allowance for doubtful accounts as of March 31, 2014 was adequate. The decrease of accounts receivable is caused by decreased sales in the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to the same period 2013.

The current budgeted investment for the construction of our new facility and for the land improvement are approximately $1.61 million and $0.16 million as of March 31, 2014, respectively. Approximately $29.0 million had been spent on these construction projects as of March 31, 2014. The purpose of our expansion is to well position the Company for long term development.

Some of our expansion plans, including our ongoing construction and the expansion of our product offerings to include nuclear, solar and semiconductor products and pursuing an acquisition, would likely require us to obtain additional financing from equity or debt markets, or borrow additional funds from local banks. There is no assurance that we will be able to raise any funds on terms favorable to us, or at all. In the event that we issue shares of equity or convertible securities, holdings of our existing stockholders would be diluted. In addition, there is no assurance that we will successfully manage and integrate the production and sale of new products.

At March 31, 2014, we had short-term bank loans of approximately $51.9 million. These bank loans, which are secured by liens on our fixed assets and land use rights, are due between June 2014 and March 2015, including approximately $47.6 million owed to the Construction Bank of China. We have used the proceeds of these short-term loans for raw material purchase and other operating purpose. During the year ended December 31, 2013 and the first quarter of 2014, pursuant to a secured line of credit obtained from China Construction Bank in January 2012, the Company rolled over all of its short-term bank loans from the China Construction Bank. In January 2012, the Company entered into a secured line of credit agreement with China Construction Bank for borrowings up to $71 million (or RMB 430 million) between January 10, 2012 and August 4, 2015, which is secured by liens on our fixed assets and land use rights. Under the secured line of credit, the Company is entitled to draw funds through sub-agreements of bank loans, foreign currency loans, bank acceptance notes, letter of credit, or bank guarantee letter. As of March 31, 2014, the unpaid principal balance drawn from the secured line of credit was $65.3 million, including $47.6 million of short-term bank loans as disclosed above and $17.7 million of long-term bank loans as disclosed below. We have used the proceeds of these long-term loans for raw material purchase and other operating purpose. Historically, we have rolled over our short-term loans when they became due. However, we cannot assure investors that our lenders, including the Construction Bank of China, will not demand repayment when these loans mature. If our lenders demand repayment when due, we may be unable to obtain the necessary funds to pay off these loans, which could result in the imposition of penalties, including a 50% increase in interest rates and a request from the banks for additional security for the loans. At March 31, 2014, our cash reserves, including restricted cash, were $35.3 million and are insufficient to pay off all of our loans when due.

We purchase all of our raw materials from domestic Chinese suppliers. Because we do not have any long-term contracts with our suppliers, any increase in the prices of our raw materials would affect the price at which we can sell our products. If we are unable to pass on increased costs to our customers, we may be unable to maintain our profit margins. Raw material prices decreased in 2013. During the first quarter of 2014 ， raw material prices decreased slightly. Average selling prices of our products decreased during the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared with average prices in the same period in 2013. As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, advances to suppliers amounted to $64,680 and $532,178, respectively. The decrease of advances to suppliers is mainly due to some advanced to suppliers were received during the three months ended March 31, 2014.

In times of decreasing prices such as the current downturn, we may have to sell our products at prices that are lower than the prices at which we purchased our raw materials. Furthermore, PRC regulations grant broad powers to the government to adjust the price of raw materials and manufactured products. Although the government has not imposed price controls on our raw materials or our products, it is possible that price controls may be implemented in the future, thereby affecting our results of operations and financial condition.

Sales .

During the three months ended March 31, 2014, we had sales of $1,311,755, compared to sales of $3,060,918 for the three months ended March 31, 2013, a decrease of $1,749,163, or approximately 57.1%. Sales decrease was mainly because the graphite industry experienced low demand during the three months ended March 31, 2014 as a result of the struggles of steel companies in China relating to severe oversupply. In particular, the market for fine grain graphite and high purity graphite products has experienced extremely low demand.

The breakdown of revenues for each of graphite electrodes, fine grain graphite and high purity graphite, during the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, was as follows:

	March 31, 2014 Sales		% of Total Sales			March 31, 2013 Sales		% of Total Sales
Graphite Electrodes	$	712,832		54.3	%	$	80,960		2.6	%
Fine Grain Graphite		398,925		30.4	%		1,394,956		45.6	%
High Purity Graphite		195,142		14.9	%		1,491,521		48.7	%
Others (1)		4,856		0.4	%		93,481		3.1	%
Total	$	1,311,755		100.0	%	$	3,060,918		100.0	%

(1) “Other” sales represent revenue generated by sales of semi-processed products and other types of products.

Cost of goods sold; gross margin .

Our cost of goods sold consists of the cost of raw materials, utilities, labor, and depreciation expenses in our manufacturing facilities, and impairment of inventory. During the three months ended March 31, 2014, our cost of goods sold was $1,732,513, compared to $3,320,320 for the cost of goods sold for the three months ended March 31, 2013, a decrease of $1,587,807 or approximately 47.8%. The decrease in the cost of sales was mainly due to decrease in sales volume.

Our gross margin decreased from (8.5)% for the three months ended March 31, 2013 to (32.1)% for the three months ended March 31, 2014. Our sales did not offset the costs we incurred during this period for raw materials, utilities, labor, depreciation, and inventory impairment cost. Sales of our higher margin products decreased significantly during the three months ended March 31, 2014 due to decreased demand and strong competition. The decrease of the gross margin is because of the change of the product mix. In the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company sold a higher percentage of lower margin products, compared to the same period of 2013.

Operating expenses.

Operating expenses totaled $1,303,909 for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to $470,411 for the three months ended March 31, 2013, an increase of $833,498, or approximately 177.2%.

Selling, general and administrative expenses

Selling expenses decreased from $17,941 for the three months ended March 31, 2013 to $14,724 for the three months ended March 31, 2014, a decrease of $3,217, or 17.9%. The decrease was mainly due to decreased sales commission and lower shipping and handling expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2014 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2013, which resulted from lower sales.

Our general and administrative expenses consist of salaries, office expenses, utilities, business travel, amortization expenses, public company expenses (including legal expenses, accounting expenses and investor relations expenses) and stock compensation. General and administrative expenses were $ 1,219,919 for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to $384,582 for the three months ended March 31, 2013, an increase of $835,337 , or 217.2 %. The increase in general and administrative expenses was mainly due to increased discount charge from banks, offset by decreased allowances for advance to suppliers.

Depreciation and amortization expenses

Depreciation and amortization expenses totaled $486,796 for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to $655,449 for the three months ended March 31, 2013, a decrease of $168,653, or approximately 25.7 %. For the three months ended March 31, 2014, depreciation and amortization was allocated between costs of goods sold and general and administrative expenses in the amounts of $417,530 and $69,266, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2013, depreciation and amortization was allocated between costs of goods sold and general and administrative expenses in the amounts $587,561 and $67,888, respectively. The decrease in depreciation and amortization expenses is because property and equipment decreased due to impairment reserved during the three months ended December 31, 2013.

Income (Loss) from operations.

As a result of the factors described above, operating loss was $(1,724,667) for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to operating loss of $(729,813) for the three months ended March 31, 2013, a decrease of approximately $994,854, or 136.3%.

Other income and expenses.

Our interest expense was $1,123,916 for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to $862,448 for the three months ended March 31, 2013, reflecting increased interest expenses on loans from banks. Expenses from changes in the fair value of our warrants as a result of adopting ASC 820-10 was $2,495 for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to $44,368 for the three months ended March 31, 2013.

Income tax.

During the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, we benefited from a 100% tax holiday from the PRC enterprise tax. As a result, we had no income tax due for these periods. The enterprise income tax at the statutory rates would have been approximately $0 and $0, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 without consideration of adjustments on taxable income. The tax holiday is from 2008 through 2017.

Net income (loss).

As a result of the factors described above, our net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2014 was $(2,722,440), compared to net loss of $1,502,268 for the three months ended March 31, 2013, an increase of $1,220,172, or 81.2%.

Foreign currency translation.

Our consolidated financial statements are expressed in U.S. dollars but the functional currency of our operating subsidiary is RMB. Results of operations and cash flows are translated at average exchange rates during the period, assets and liabilities are translated at the unified exchange rate at the end of the period and equity is translated at historical exchange rates. Translation adjustments resulting from the process of translating the financial statements denominated in RMB into U.S. dollars are included in determining comprehensive income. Our foreign currency translation gain for the three months ended March 31, 2014 was $380,249, compared to $146,277 for the three months ended March 31, 2013, an increase of $233,972, or 160.0%.

Net income (loss) available to common stockholders.

Net loss available to our common stockholders was $(2,722,440), or $(0.09) per share (basic and diluted), for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to net loss of $(1,506,805), or $(0.06) per share (basic and diluted), for the three months ended March 31, 2013.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

All of our business operations are carried out by Xingyong, and all of the cash generated by our operations has been held by that entity. In order to transfer such cash to our parent entity, China Carbon Graphite Group, Inc., which is a Nevada corporation, we would need to rely on dividends, loans or advances made by our PRC subsidiaries or VIE entity. Such transfers may be subject to certain regulations or risks. To date, our parent entity has paid its expenses by raising capital through private placement transactions. In the future, in the event that our parent entity is unable to raise needed funds from private investors, Xingyong would have to transfer funds to our parent entity through our wholly-owned subsidiaries, Talent and Yongle.

PRC regulations relating to statutory reserves and currency conversion would impact our ability to transfer cash within our corporate structure. The Company Law of the PRC applicable to Chinese companies provides that net after tax income should be allocated by the following rules:

1.	10% of after tax income to be allocated to a statutory surplus reserve until the reserve amounts to 50% of the company’s registered capital.

2.	If the accumulate balance of statutory surplus reserve is not enough to make up the Company’s cumulative prior years’ losses, the current year’s after tax income should be first used to make up the losses before the statutory surplus reverse is drawn.

3.	Allocation can be made to the discretionary surplus reserve, if such a reserve is approved at the meeting of the equity owners.

Therefore, the Company is required to maintain a statutory reserve in China that limits any equity distributions to its shareholders. The maximum amount of the shareholders has not been reached. The company has never distributed earnings to shareholders and has consistently stated in the Company’s filings it has no intentions to do so.

The RMB is not freely convertible into Dollars. The State Administration of Foreign Exchange (“SAFE”) administers foreign exchange dealings and requires that they be conducted though designated financial institutions. Foreign Investment Enterprises, such as Xingyong, may purchase foreign currency from designated financial institutions in connection with current account transactions, including profit repatriation.

These factors will limit the amount of funds that we can transfer from Xingyong to our parent entity and may delay any such transfer. In addition, upon repatriation of earnings of Xingyong to the United States, those earnings may become subject to United States federal and state income taxes. We have not accrued any U.S. federal or state tax liability on the undistributed earnings of our foreign subsidiary because those funds are intended to be indefinitely reinvested in our international operations. Accordingly, taxes imposed upon repatriation of those earnings to the U.S. would reduce the net worth of the Company.

Our primary capital needs have been to fund our working capital requirements. Our primary sources of financing have been cash generated from short-term and long-term loans from banks in China, loans from unrelated parties and loans from related parties. Currently and for the last two fiscal years, the Company has managed to operate the business with a low or negative net working capital. The Company’s low working capital is primarily due to substantial short-term loans from banks and borrowing from related parties. The Company is able to operate with a low or negative net working capital because of its ability to borrow substantial short-term and long-term bank loans and notes payable from banks with local governmental support in Inner Mongolia. For example, the local Chinese government and the Company agreed on terms for the land use rights of 387,838 square meters of land located adjacent to the Company’s facilities, as described below under the heading “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies—Land Use Rights.”

We are currently undergoing new construction, including new buildings and equipment, in connection with the manufacturing of graphite products. Although the current market for our products is extremely weak, we expect the market to improve in the long run. The current budgeted investment for the construction of our new production facility was approximately $22.7 million in the aggregate. Approximately $21.0 million had been spent as of March 31, 2014. We have used proceeds from a long-term loan to fund this construction.

Some of our expansion plans, including our ongoing construction, would likely require us to obtain additional financing from equity or debt markets, or borrow additional funds from local banks. There is no assurance that we will be able to raise any funds on terms favorable to us, or at all. In the event that we issue shares of equity or convertible securities, holdings of our existing stockholders would be diluted. In addition, there is no assurance that we will successfully manage and integrate the production and sale of new products.

At March 31, 2014, we had short-term loans in the aggregate amount of $51,927,160 outstanding, as described below.

Historically we have been able to renew our short-term loans on an annual basis. Although we believe that we will be able to obtain extensions of these loans when they mature, we cannot assure investors that such extensions will be granted. In the event repayment of the loans is not extended and we default on our obligations, the lenders could call the loans, foreclose on the collateral securing the loans or seek other remedies. If a lender foreclosed on our land, the lender would acquire the land use rights to such land, which rights are currently held by us. In addition, because we did not pay for the land use rights that were granted to us with respect to a portion of our facilities, we are required to keep such property in good condition and to allocate a portion of the land as a park that can be accessed by the public. In such an event, our operations and financial conditions would be materially adversely affected and we would be forced to cease operations if alternative funding is not obtained.

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to cease operations.

Despite a low amount of working capital, we are able to operate our business through bank financing, loans from related and unrelated parties and issuing equity in exchange for certain services provided. Our long-term goal is to continue to roll over short-term and long-term loans and obtain positive cash flows from collecting our outstanding accounts receivable and sales of inventory until our new facility is operating at full capacity. We have the ability to manage and predict our cash flow for inventory purchases and advances to suppliers because the length of the time it takes to complete purchase orders for customers, which on average is six months. Our customers must order products well in advance of productions, as a purchase order is fulfilled only six months after such order is placed, thereby allowing us to predict cash flow. During the interim, we expect that anticipated cash flows from future operations, short-term and long-term bank loans and loans from unrelated or related parties will be sufficient to fund our operations through at least the next twelve months, provided that:

o	we generate sufficient business so that we are able to generate substantial profits, which cannot be assured;

o	our banks continue to provide us with the necessary working capital financing; and

o	we are able to generate savings by improving the efficiency of our operations.

We may require additional equity, debt or bank funding to finance acquisitions or to allow us to produce graphite for the nuclear industry, which is one of our primary growth strategies. We can provide no assurances that we will be able to enter into any additional financing agreements on terms favorable to us, if at all, especially considering the current global instability of the capital markets.

At March 31, 2014, cash and cash equivalents were $429,380, compared to $131,545 at December 31, 2013, an increase of $297,835. Restricted cash decreased to $34,823,380 as of March 31, 2014 from $35,643,666 as of December 31, 2013, which was restricted as a requirement by our lenders. Our working capital deficit increased by $5,358,958 to a deficit of $53,043,412 at March 31, 2014 from a deficit of $47,684,454 at December 31, 2013.

As of March 31, 2014, accounts receivable, net of allowance, was $4,078,127, compared to $4,488,310 at December 31, 2013, a decrease of $410,183, or 9.14%. The decrease was mainly due to decreased sales during the three and three months ended March 31, 2014. Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. Our management reviews the adequacy of our allowance for doubtful accounts on an ongoing basis, using historical collection trends and the aging of receivables. Management also periodically evaluates individual customer’s financial condition, credit history, and the current economic conditions to make adjustments in the allowance when it is considered necessary. The Company believes its allowance was sufficient as of March 31, 2014.

As of March 31, 2014, inventories were $26,597,290, compared to $27,904,417 at December 31, 2013, a decrease of $1,304,127, or 4.67%. As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company has provision for inventory in regards to slow moving or obsolete items of $20,858,557 and $21,419,154, respectively.

As of March 31, 2014, prepaid expenses were $326,460, compared to $528,464 at December 31, 2013, a decrease of $202,004, or 38.22%. The decrease in prepaid expenses is attributable to amortization of prepaid services.

Advances to suppliers decreased from $532,178 at December 31, 2013 to $64,680 at March 31, 2014, a decrease of $467,498. The decrease of advances to suppliers is mainly due to some advanced to suppliers were received during the three months ended March 31, 2014. $3,017,113 and $3,548,068 of allowance for doubtful accounts for the balance of advances to suppliers were reserved as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

Notes payable reflect our obligations to bank lenders who have guaranteed our future payment obligations as requested by certain of our suppliers . Notes payable decreased from $68,553,116 to $59,841,709 from December 31, 2013 to March 31, 2014. The decrease is due to the Company needed less fund to secure its inventory due to decreased sales. The notes payable were secured by $34,823,380 of restricted cash at March 31, 2014. Restricted cash represents amounts held by a bank as security for bank acceptance notes and is subject to withdrawal restrictions.

Three months ended March 31, 2014 Compared to Three months ended March 31, 2013

The following table sets forth information about our net cash flow for the nine months indicated:

Cash Flows Data:

	For Three months ended March 31
	2014			2013
Net cash flows used in operating activities	$	(150,492	)	$	(15,210,594	)
Net cash flows used in investing activities	$	(579,742	)	$	(11,577,432	)
Net cash flows provided by financing activities	$	1,036,937		$	28,335,251

Net cash flow used in operating activities was $150,492 for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to $15,210,594 used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2013, a decrease of $15,060,102, or 99.0%. The decrease in net cash flow used in operating activities was mainly due to less payments made for advance to suppliers of $12.2 million, less increase of notes receivable of $7.4 million, less payments of accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $1.0 million, which was offset by increased net loss of $1.2 million, less decrease in accounts receivable of $4.4 million, and less money received from other payable of $0.75 million .

Net cash flow used in investing activities was $579,742 for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to $11,577,432 for the three months ended March 31, 2013, a decrease of $10,997,690, or 95.0%. $1,161 was spent on acquisition of property, plant and equipment and $0.58 million was spent construction in progress during the three months ended March 31, 2014. Approximately $11.6 million was spent for construction in progress for our new construction during the three months ended March 31, 2013.

Net cash flow provided by financing activities was $1,036,937 for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to $28,335,251 for the three months ended March 31, 2013, a decrease of $27,298,314 or 96.3%. The decrease in net cash flow provided by financing activities was mainly due to decrease in proceeds from long-term loans of $11.2 million, and decrease in proceeds of loans to unrelated parties of $11.0 million. The Company borrowed $19.7 million in short-term bank loans and repaid $11.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2014, while the Company borrowed $11.2 million in short-term bank loans and repaid $4.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013. The Company borrowed $24.9 million in notes payable and repaid $31.6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2014, while the Company borrowed $17.7 million in notes payable and repaid $17.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013.

Concentration of Business and Credit Risk

Most of the Company’s bank accounts are in banks located in the PRC and are not covered by any type of protection similar to that provided by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) on funds held in U.S. banks. The Company’s bank account in the United States is covered by FDIC insurance.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have not entered into any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Significant Accounting Estimates and Policies

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our financial statements that have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates including the allowance for doubtful accounts, the salability and recoverability of our products, income taxes and contingencies. We base our estimates on historical experience and on other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form our basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Revenue Recognition

Comprehensive Income

We have adopted ASC 220, Comprehensive Income, formerly known as SFAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income, which establishes standards for reporting and presentation of comprehensive income (loss) and its components in a full set of general purpose financial statements. We have chosen to report comprehensive income (loss) in the statements of operations and comprehensive income.

Income Taxes

We account for income taxes under the provisions of ASC 740, Income Tax, formerly known as SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the consolidated financial statements or tax returns. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequence attributable to the difference between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial statements. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rate expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

Effective January 1, 2008, the new Chinese income tax law sets unified income tax rates for domestic and foreign companies at 25%, except for a 15% corporate income tax rate for qualified high technology and science enterprises. In accordance with this new income tax law, low preferential tax rates in accordance with both the tax laws and administrative regulations prior to the promulgation of this law gradually become subject to the new tax rate within five years after the implementation of this law.

We have been recognized as a high technology and science company by the Ministry of Science and Technology of the PRC. The Xing He District Local Tax Authority in the Nei Mongol province granted us a 100% tax holiday with respect to enterprise income tax for ten years from 2008 through 2017. Afterwards, based on the present tax law and our status as a qualified high technology and science company, we will be subject to a corporate income tax rate of 15% effective in 2018.

Accounts Receivable and Allowance For Doubtful Accounts

Accounts receivables are recognized and carried at the original invoice amount less allowance for any uncollectible amounts. An estimate for allowance for doubtful accounts is made when collection of the full amount is no longer probable. Bad debts are written off as incurred. Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. Management reviews the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts on an ongoing basis, using historical collection trends and aging of receivables. Management also periodically evaluates individual customer’s financial condition, credit history, and the current economic conditions to make adjustments in the allowance when it is considered necessary. The allowance for doubtful accounts amounted to $7,195,656 as of March 31, 2014. Management believes that this allowance is sufficient based on a review of customer credit history, historic payment records, aging, the market and other factors.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost, determined on a weighted average basis, and net realizable value. Work in progress and finished goods are composed of direct material, direct labor and a portion of manufacturing overhead. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price, in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs to complete and dispose. The cost of inventories comprises all costs of purchases, costs of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. The costs of conversion of inventories include fixed and variable production overhead, taking into account the stage of completion. For the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company has provision for inventory in regards to slow moving or obsolete items of $0 and $0, respectively. As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company has provision for inventory in regards to slow moving or obsolete items of $20,858,557 and $21,419,154, respectively.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Major expenditures for betterments and renewals are capitalized while ordinary repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. Depreciation and amortization is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the assets after taking into account the estimated residual value. The Company reviews the carrying value of property, plant, and equipment for impairment whenever events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable from the estimated future cash flows expected to result from its use and eventual disposition. In cases where undiscounted expected future cash flows are less than the carrying value, an impairment loss is recognized equal to an amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of assets. The factors considered by management in performing this assessment include current operating results, trends and prospects, the manner in which the property is used, and the effects of obsolescence, demand, competition, and other economic factors. Based on this assessment, $0 and $0 of impairment expenses for property, plant, and equipment recorded in operating expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, $19,214,221 and $19,730,625 were recorded as impairment for property, plant and equipment, respectively.

The Company reviews the carrying value of construction in progress for impairment whenever events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable from the estimated future cash flows expected to result from its use and eventual disposition. In cases where undiscounted expected future cash flows are less than the carrying value, an impairment loss is recognized equal to an amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of assets. The factors considered by management in performing this assessment include current operating results, trends and prospects, the manner in which the property is used, and the effects of obsolescence, demand, competition and other economic factors. Based on this assessment, $0 and $0 impairment losses were recorded for construction in progress during the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013. As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, $5,122,824 and $5,260,506 were recorded as impairment for construction in progress, respectively.

Land Use Rights

There is no private ownership of land in China. All land ownership is held by the government, its agencies and collectives. Land use rights are obtained from the government, and are typically renewable. Land use rights can be transferred upon approval by State Land Administration Bureau and payment of the required transfer fee. We record the property subject to land use rights as intangible asset.

Each intangible asset is reviewed periodically or more often if circumstances dictate, to determine whether its carrying value has become impaired. We consider assets to be impaired if the carrying value exceeds the future projected cash flows from related operations. We also re-evaluate the amortization periods to determine whether subsequent events and circumstances warrant revised estimates of useful lives.

Research and Development

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred, and are included in general and administrative expenses. These costs primarily consist of the cost of material used and salaries paid for the development of our products and fees paid to third parties. Our research and development expense for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 has not been significant.

Value Added Tax

Pursuant to China’s VAT rules and regulations, as an ordinary VAT taxpayer we are subject to a tax rate of 17% (“output VAT”). The output VAT is payable after offsetting VAT paid by us on purchases (“input VAT”). Under the commercial practice of the PRC, the Company paid VAT and business tax based on tax invoices issued.

The tax invoices may be issued subsequent to the date on which revenue is recognized, and there may be a considerable delay between the date on which the revenue is recognized and the date on which the tax invoice is issued. In the event that the PRC tax authorities dispute the date on which revenue is recognized for tax purposes, the PRC tax office has the right to assess a penalty, which can range from zero to five times the amount of the taxes that are determined to be late or deficient. In the event that a tax penalty is assessed on late or deficient payments, the penalty will be expensed as a period expense if and when a determination has been made by the taxing authorities that a penalty is due.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

On January 1, 2008, the Company began recording financial assets and liabilities subject to recurring fair value measurement at the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. On January 1, 2009, the Company began recording non-recurring financial as well as all non-financial assets and liabilities subject to fair value measurement under the same principles. These fair value principles prioritize valuation inputs across three broad levels. The three levels are defined 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 liabilities, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instruments.

	●	Level 3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value.

The carrying amounts of financial assets and liabilities, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, notes receivable, advances to suppliers, other receivables, short-term bank loans, notes payable, accounts payable, advances from customers and other payables, approximate their fair values because of the short maturity period for these instruments.

	Carrying Value at March 31,		Fair Value Measurement at March 31, 2014
	2014		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Warrant liability	$	10,972		-		-	$	10,972
Notes payable	$	59,841,709		-	$	59,841,709		-

	Carrying Value at December 31 ,		Fair Value Measurement at December 31 , 2013
	2013		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Warrant liability	$	13,467		-		-	$	13,467
Notes payable	$	68,553,116		-	$	68,553,116		-

Please see Note 3 contained in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a description of our warrant liability for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013.

The Company did not identify any other non-recurring assets and liabilities that are required to be presented on the balance sheet at fair value.

Stock-based Compensation

Stock-based compensation includes (i) common stock awards granted to employees and directors for services which are accounted for under FASB ASC 718, Compensation–Stock Compensation, and (ii) common stock awards granted to consultants which are accounted for under FASB ASC 505-50, Equity–Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees.

Common stock awards are granted to directors for services provided.

The Company estimates fair value of common stock awards based on the number of shares granted and the quoted price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant.

Stock compensation expenses of $0 and $48,375 of were amortized and recognized as general and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Item 4.

Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2014.

Disclosure controls and procedures refer to controls and other procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating and implementing possible controls and procedures.

Management conducted its evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, because of the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2014.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

During the three months ended March 31, 2014, there has been no change in our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting. We will continue to monitor the deficiencies identified in internal controls and make changes that our management deems necessary.

Limitations on Controls

Management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error and fraud. Any control system, no matter how well designed and operated, is based upon certain assumptions and can provide only reasonable assurance that its objectives will be met. Further, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected.
