Financial Results for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2011

Revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2011 totaled $8 million, an increase of 50.4% compared to $5.3 million for the same period in 2010. The revenue increase was due primarily to the increase in sales of frozen and fresh ginger and other agricultural products. The average market price of ginger reached $1,360 per ton during the quarter ended March 31, 2011, compared to the average market price of $1,080 per ton for the same period the prior year.

Cost of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2011 totaled $4.6 million, or 58% of revenue, an increase of 48.3% compared to $3.1 million or 59% of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2010. Cost of sales includes the costs associated with the planting, harvesting and maintaining of ginger and other agricultural products. Cost of sales as a percentage of revenues remained stable mainly due to cost controls associated with planting and production. During the quarter there was also a high recovery ratio of stored ginger due to the thermostatic warehouse at which the ginger was stored.

Gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2011 totaled $3.3 million, an increase of 53.4% compared to $2.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010. Gross profit margin remained stable during the fiscal 2011 third quarter at 41.8% as compared to 41.0% during the fiscal 2010 third quarter. During the three months ended March 31, 2011, Man Shing continued to focus on the efficient utilization of plantation and processing facilities.

Operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2011 totaled $1 million as compared to $439,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2010. Selling and marketing expenses were 9% of revenues for the fiscal 2011 third quarter as compared to 7% for the same period the prior year, primarily attributable to the increase of sales and marketing activities in both existing and new markets. General and administrative expenses were 4% of revenues for the 2011 fiscal third quarter as compared to 2% for the 2010 fiscal third quarter.

Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2011 totaled $2.3 million, an increase of 34.8% compared to $1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010. Basic earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2011 were $0.05 based on 45.1 million basic shares versus earnings per share of $0.05 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 based on 36.1 million basic shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2011 totaled $0.05 based on 46.9 million shares outstanding as compared to $0.02 based on 72.1 million shares outstanding during the prior year period.

Mr. Shili Liu continued, "There were several contributing factors to our financial growth including the increase in the price of ginger, an increase in land leased and efficient utilization of our thermostatic warehouse. Our leased farmland grew to a total of 5.3 million square meters during the 2011 fiscal third quarter as compared to the 3.3 million total square meters of farmland leased during the 2010 fiscal third quarter. Our ability to warehouse our ginger at an ideal constant temperature, maintaining freshness for up to two years, offered us flexibility in meeting customer demand and was a contributing factor to our financial growth."

Financial Results for the Nine Months Ended March 31, 2011

Revenue for the nine months ended March 31, 2011 totaled $23.5 million, an increase of 55.4% compared to $15.1 million for the same period in 2010. The increase in revenue was driven by the increased consumer demand of our products, the expansion of business through our marketing strategy and our customer loyalty, and an increase in average market price of ginger to approximately $1,300 per ton as compared to the average market price of $990 per ton the prior year. There were no product returns for either of the nine months ended March 31, 2010 or 2011.

Cost of sales for the nine months ended March 31, 2011 totaled $13.6 million or 58% of revenue, an increase of 37.7% compared to $9.9 million or 65% of revenue for the nine months ended March 31, 2010. Cost of sales includes the costs associated with the planting, harvesting and maintaining of ginger and other agricultural products. As a percentage of sales, cost of sales decreased due to the increase in the market price of ginger and more efficient utilization of raw materials.

Gross profit for the nine months ended March 31, 2011 totaled $9.8 million, an increase of 88.8% compared to $5.2 million for the same period the prior year. Gross profit margin increased to 41.9%, as compared to 34.5% for the same period the prior year. This increase was primarily attributable to the increase in the selling prices of our products. During the period, we were able to utilize our plantation and processing facilities more efficiently due to economies of scale from an increase in output.

Operating expenses for the nine months ended March 31, 2011 totaled $2.9 million as compared to $1.1 million for the same period in the prior year. Selling and marketing expenses as a percentage of revenue increased to 9% for the 2011 fiscal nine month period as compared to 5% for the same period the prior year as an increased investment was made during the period to gain market share in existing markets and to expand into new markets. General and administrative expenses remained stable at 3% of revenue for the 2011 fiscal nine month period as compared to 2% for the same period in the prior year.

Net income for the nine months ended March 31, 2011 totaled $6.8 million, an increase of 66.9% compared to $4.1 million for the same period in the prior year. Basic earnings per share for the nine months ended March 31, 2011 was $0.17 based on 40.4 million shares versus earnings per share of $0.16 based on 25.5 million shares outstanding for the same period in the prior year. Diluted earnings per share for the nine months ended March 31, 2011 was $0.11 based on 62.8 million shares outstanding as compared to diluted earnings per share of $0.07 based on 61.7 million shares outstanding for the same period in the prior year. The difference in the fully diluted shares outstanding for the nine month period versus the three month period is attributable to the cancellation of preferred shares owned by Chairman, Mr. Shili Liu.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2011, Man Shing had approximately $6.3 million in cash and cash equivalents. As of March 31, 2011, total current assets and total assets were approximately $25.0 million and $26.4 million, respectively. During the same period, total current liabilities and total liabilities were approximately $3.8 million and $5.3 million, respectively. Working capital increased year-over-year by $10.9 million to $21.2 million as compared to $10.3 million as of June 30, 2010. Shareholders' equity increased 119% to $21.1 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2010, compared to $9.6 million for the year ended June 30, 2010.

Mr. Shili Liu concluded, "Our growth strategy is contingent on our ability to lease more land. Recently we announced the lease of an additional 2.4 million square meters of land, increasing our total farmland by approximately 45% to 7.7 million square meters. We were able to lease more land for two main reasons. First, we have cultivated relationships over many years with not only our customers, but with the PRC government and local farmland workers. Since our company's inception, we have treated our customers, the government and local farmland owners as partners. On April 13, 2011, a Japanese Government Official and a farmland owner from the town of Yinayityou within the Shimane County of Japan visited our facilities. Secondly, we have invested capital and resources in sophisticated food safety procedures that have allowed us to export ginger to some of the most stringent markets in the world, most notably Japan and the United Kingdom. Those that have visited our facilities understand and trust the high quality of our products. Strong relationships with the local government and customers and our focus on quality are at the heart of Man Shing's success. We began planting on 7.7 million square meters of land last month and are looking forward to the upcoming harvest season."
