China exports many things to the world marketplace; however is one of the largest importers of grains and foods in the world. Hundreds of millions of Chinese depend on imported grains to support higher demand for meat and poultry which are fed with imported grains. The Chinese government has mandated that farmers increase crop yields to decrease the nation's dependence on foreign imports. Moreover, there is growing emphasis on the need for "green" fertilizers that restore the soil, rather than deplete it. BODISEN HAS A FULL LINE OF PRODUCTS THAT EFFECTIVELY ADDRESS COMPLETE PLANTING NEEDS OF CHINESE FARMERS With over 60 products and approximately 600 national distribution centers and growing, Bodisen has experienced rapid growth in recent years. Bodisen's products are developed by company scientists in collaboration with University laboratories. Our products address grains, vegetables, fruit crops and have been proven to increase yields by 10% to 35% while 100% environmentally friendly. Our products substantially improve the lifestyles of the 900 million Chinese farmers whose livelihood are solely dependent upon their crop yields. EARNINGS GUIDANCE FOR YEAR 2005 Bodisen affirmed fiscal 2005 (December yearend) guidance for earnings of approximately $8 million (including 1Q05 one time financing related charge), or approximately 50 cents per share, on revenue of approximately $28 million. Guidance does not include positive impact from increased sales channels and further expansion of manufacturing capacities, as a result of the Company's planned dual listing before yearend on the AIM market of the London Stock Exchange raising up to 10 million British Pound (US$18 million) through placement of new shares (Broker: UK investment bank Charles Stanley; Reporting accountant: Deloitte & Touche).
