F-4 ORIENT PAPER, INC. STATEMENTS OF CASH FLOWS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2008, AND 2007 (Unaudited) Supplemental Disclosure of Cash Flow Information: On October 29, 2007, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger between Orient Paper; CARZ Merger Sub, Inc., a Nevada corporation, and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company; DZH Limited; and the stockholders of DZH Limited. Under the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, the Company issued to the stockholders of DZH Limited 29,801,987 shares of the Company's common stock, par value $.001, in exchange for all of the issued and outstanding shares of stock of DZH Limited (50,000 shares). The accompanying notes to financial statements are an integral part of these statements. F-5 ORIENT PAPER, INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MARCH 31, 2008, AND 2007 (UNAUDITED) (1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation and Organization Orient Paper, Inc. ("Orient Paper" or the "Company") is a Nevada corporation that initially provided financing services specializing in sub prime title loans, secured primarily using automobiles (but also boats, recreational vehicles, machinery, and other equipment) as collateral. The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on December 9, 2005, under the name of Carlateral, Inc. The target market of the Company was individuals needing short-term capital (30 to 90 days). Such individuals generally were those individuals that either did not meet the lending criteria of established banks and lending institutions, or did not wish to incur the delays associated with a lengthy loan application and approval process. The accompanying financial statements of Orient Paper were prepared from the accounts of the Company under the accrual basis of accounting in United States dollars. In addition, the accompanying financial statements reflect the completion of a reverse merger between Orient Paper; CARZ Merger Sub, Inc., a Nevada corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company; Dongfang Zhiye Holding Limited, a British Virgin Islands company ("DZH Limited"); and the stockholders of DZH Limited, which was effected on October 29, 2007. DZH Limited is a holding company with no operations, and owns 100 percent of the outstanding stock and ownership of Hebei Baoding Orient Paper Milling Co., Ltd. ("HBOP"), a company organized under the laws of the People's Republic of China ("PRC"). Prior to the completion of the reverse merger, the Company had limited operations (since its incorporation on December 9, 2005). On December 21, 2007, the name of the Company was changed from Carlateral, Inc. to Orient Paper, Inc. in order to better reflect the current business plan subsequent to the reverse merger. DZH Limited was formed on November 13, 2006, under the laws of the British Virgin Islands, and is a holding company. As such, DZH Limited does not generate any financial or operating transactions. It owns 100 percent of the issued and outstanding stock and ownership of HBOP. HBOP was organized on March 3, 1996, under the laws of the PRC. HBOP engages mainly in the production and distribution of products such as copy paper, uncoated and coated paper, digital-photo paper, corrugated paper, plastic paper, kraft paper, graphic-design paper, antifraud-thermal-security paper, and other paper and packaging-related products. HBOP uses recycled paper as its raw materials. Given that DZH Limited is considered to have acquired Orient Paper by a reverse merger through an Agreement and Plan of Merger (see Note 6), and its stockholders currently have voting control of the Company, the accompanying financial statements and related disclosures in the notes to financial statements present the financial position as of March 31, 2008, and December 31, 2007, and the operations for the three months ended March 31, 2008, and 2007, of DZH Limited and its subsidiary HBOP under the name of Orient Paper. The reverse merger has been recorded as a recapitalization of the Company, with the consolidated net assets of DZH Limited and its wholly owned operating subsidiary HBOP, and net assets Orient Paper brought forward at their historical bases. The costs associated with the reverse merger have been expensed as incurred. F-6 ORIENT PAPER, INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MARCH 31, 2008, AND 2007 (UNAUDITED) Interim Financial Statements The interim financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information, and with the instructions for Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") Form 10-Q under Regulation S-X. They do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. Therefore, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2007, included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB/A filed on April 15, 2008, with the SEC. The accompanying interim financial statements included herein are unaudited; however, they contain all normal recurring accruals and adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position as of March 31, 2008, and the results of its operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2008, and 2007. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2008, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for future quarters or the year ending December 31, 2008. Foreign Currency Translation The Company accounts for foreign currency translation pursuant to SFAS No. 52, "Foreign Currency Translation" ("SFAS No. 52"). The Company's functional currency is the Chinese Yuan Renminbi ("CNY"). Under SFAS No. 52, all assets and liabilities are translated into United States dollars using the current exchange rate at the end of each fiscal period. Revenues and expenses are translated using the average exchange rates prevailing throughout the respective periods. Translation adjustments are included in other comprehensive income (loss) for the period. Certain transactions of the Company are denominated in United States dollars. Translation gains or losses related to such transactions are recognized for each reporting period in the related statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss). Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of March 31, 2008, and revenues and expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2008, and 2007. Actual results could differ from those estimates made by management. Risks and Uncertainties The Company is subject to substantial risks from, among other things, intense competition associated with the industry in general, other risks associated with financing, liquidity requirements, rapidly changing customer requirements, limited operating history, foreign currency exchange rates, and operating in the PRC under its various laws and restrictions. F-7 ORIENT PAPER, INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MARCH 31, 2008, AND 2007 (UNAUDITED) Cash and Cash Equivalents For purposes of reporting within the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all cash on hand, cash accounts not subject to withdrawal restrictions or penalties, and all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash and cash equivalents. Concentration of Credit Risk Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash. The Company places its temporary cash investments in reputable financial institutions which are fully insured by the PRC government. Accounts Receivable Trade accounts receivable are recorded on shipment of products to customers, and generally are due under the terms of net 30 days. The trade receivables are not collateralized and interest is not accrued on past due accounts. Periodically, management reviews the adequacy of its provision for doubtful accounts based on historical bad debt expense results and current economic conditions using factors based on the aging of its accounts receivable. Additionally, the Company may identify additional allowance requirements based on indications that a specific customer may be experiencing financial difficulties. Actual bad debt results could differ materially from these estimates. As of March 31, 2008, management determined that a reserve for bad debts was not needed. While management uses the best information available upon which to base estimates, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary if economic conditions differ substantially from the assumptions used for the purposes of analysis. Inventories Inventories consist principally of raw materials (used paper) and finished goods and are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market. Property and Equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost. Major renewals, betterments, and improvements are charged to the asset accounts while replacements, maintenance, and repairs, which do not improve or extend the lives of the respective assets, are expensed to operations. At the time property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the asset and related accumulated depreciation and amortization accounts are relieved of the applicable amounts. Gains or losses from retirements or sales are credited or charged to income. The Company depreciates property and equipment using the straight-line method as follows: Building and interior 30 years Furniture and fixtures 5-15 years Vehicles 15 years F-8 ORIENT PAPER, INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MARCH 31, 2008, AND 2007 (UNAUDITED) Long-Lived Assets The Company evaluates the recoverability of long-lived assets and the related estimated remaining useful lives when events or circumstances lead management to believe that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets' carrying amount. In such circumstances, those assets are written down to estimated fair value. For the three months ended March 31, 2008, and 2007, no events or circumstances occurred for which an evaluation of the recoverability of long-lived asset was required. Fair Value of Financial Instruments The Company estimates the fair value of financial instruments using the available market information and valuation methods. Considerable judgment is required in estimating fair value. Accordingly, the estimates of fair value may not be indicative of the amounts the Company could realize in a current market exchange. As of March 31, 2008, the Company's financial instruments approximated fair value to do the nature and maturity of such instruments. Statutory Reserves The laws and regulations of the PRC require that before an enterprise distributes profits to its shareholders, it must first satisfy all tax liabilities, provide for losses in previous years, and make allocations, in proportions determined at the discretion of the Board of Directors, after the statutory reserve. The statutory reserves include a surplus reserve fund and a common welfare fund. These statutory reserves represent restricted retained earnings. Surplus Reserve Fund The Company is required to transfer 10 percent of its net income, as determined in accordance with the PRC accounting rules and regulations, to a statutory surplus reserve fund until such reserve balance reaches 50 percent of the Company's registered capital. The transfer to this reserve must be made before distribution of any dividend to shareholders. For three months ended March 31, 2008, and 2007, the Company did not make a transfer to this reserve. The surplus reserve fund is non-distributable other than during liquidation and can be used to fund previous years' losses, if any, and may be utilized for business expansion or converted into share capital by issuing new shares to existing shareholders in proportion to their shareholdings or by increasing the par value of the shares currently held by them, provided that the remaining reserve balance after such issue is not less than 25 percent of the registered capital. Common Welfare Fund The Company is required to transfer five percent to 10 percent of its net income, as determined in accordance with the PRC accounting rules and regulations, to the statutory common welfare fund. This fund can only be utilized on capital items for the collective benefit of the Company's employees, such as construction of dormitories, cafeteria facilities, and other staff welfare facilities. This fund is non-distributable other than upon liquidation. The transfer to this fund must be made before distribution of any dividend to shareholders. F-9 ORIENT PAPER, INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MARCH 31, 2008, AND 2007 (UNAUDITED) Revenue Recognition Policy The Company recognizes revenue when goods are shipped, when a formal arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, the delivery is completed, no other significant obligations of the Company exist, and collectability is reasonably assured. The Company is required to collect a three percent value-added-tax ("VAT") on each sale. Gross revenues do not include this VAT which is remitted to the government quarterly. Advertising The Company expenses all advertising and promotion costs as incurred. The Company did not incur any advertising and promotion costs for the three months ended March 31, 2008, and 2007, respectively. Lease Obligations All noncancellable leases with an initial term greater than one year are categorized as either capital or operating leases. Assets recorded under capital leases are amortized according to the same methods employed for property and equipment or over the term of the related lease, if shorter. Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" ("SFAS No. 109"). Under SFAS No. 109, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on temporary differences between the bases of certain assets and liabilities for income tax and financial reporting purposes. The deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified according to the financial statement classification of the assets and liabilities generating the differences. The Company maintains a valuation allowance with respect to deferred tax assets. The Company establishes a valuation allowance based upon the potential likelihood of realizing the deferred tax asset and taking into consideration the Company's financial position and results of operations for the current period. Future realization of the deferred tax benefit depends on the existence of sufficient taxable income within the carryforward period under the Federal tax laws. Changes in circumstances, such as the Company generating taxable income, could cause a change in judgment about the realizability of the related deferred tax asset. Any change in the valuation allowance will be included in income in the year of the change in estimate. Foreign operations of the Company are governed by the Income Tax Laws of the PRC. Pursuant to the PRC Income Tax Laws, the Enterprise Income Tax ("EIT") is at a statutory rate of 33 percent, which is comprised of 30 percent national income tax and three percent local income tax. F-10 ORIENT PAPER, INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MARCH 31, 2008, AND 2007 (UNAUDITED) Comprehensive Income (Loss) The Company presents comprehensive income (loss) in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" ("SFAS No. 130"). SFAS No. 130 states that all items that are required to be recognized under accounting standards as components of comprehensive income (loss) be reported in the financial statements. For the three months ended March 31, 2008, and 2007, the only components of comprehensive income were the net income for the periods, and the foreign currency translation adjustments. Earnings Per Common Share Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the net income attributable to the common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed similar to basic earnings per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. Fiscal Year End On November 16, 2007, the Board of Directors of the Company elected under the Bylaws of the Company to change the fiscal year end from February 28 to December 31. Because of the reverse merger completed by the Company on October 29, 2007, the financial statements as of March 31, 2008, and 2007, and for the three months then ended, are presented on a calendar basis.

(4) Commitments and Contingencies Operating Lease The Company leases 133,200 metric acres of land at its location from a local government through a real estate lease with a 30-year term and expires on December 31, 2031. The lease requires an annual rental payment of approximately $15,384. This operating lease is renewable at the end of the 30-year term. Future minimum lease payments are as follows: March 31, Amount --------- -------- 2009 $ 15,384 2010 15,384 2011 15,384 2012 15,384 2013 15,384 Thereafter 292,296 -------- Total lease payments $369,216 ======== Environmental Remediation In accordance with the real estate lease, the Company will be obligated to return the land to its condition prior to the lease.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MARCH 31, 2008, AND 2007 (UNAUDITED) 30-year life of the lease. The Company has not obtained an estimate for those costs, but management is confident that any such costs that should be accrued are not material as of March 31, 2008. Consulting Agreements On January 1, 2008, the Company entered into three separate written agreements with third-party individuals to provide consulting services during the year 2008. These agreements may be terminated at any time by the parties with or without cause, effective upon written 30 days notice. However, termination by the Company shall not waive the obligation of the Company to pay the consultants. Consulting services under the agreements principally commenced January 1, 2008 and consist of various accounting, legal, and regulatory matters. The three consultants will received collectively approximately $500,000. The consultants have agreed that compensation can be paid by shares under the terms mutually agreed upon by both parties in a future date under a separate Stock Award Agreement (See Note 10). As of March 31, 2008, $125,000 was accrued for services rendered during the three months ended March 31, 2008. (5) Related Party Transactions The Chief Executive Officer of the Company loaned money to the Company for working capital purposes, which amounted to $5,993,418 as of March 31, 2008. During the three months ended March 31, 2008, and 2007, the Company applied payments of $0 and $1,394,163, respectively, towards this loan. There are provisions for deferring payment to the Chief Executive Officer if the Company's cash flow is not sufficient to cover the obligation. The loan is non-interest bearing. The obligation owed to the Chief Executive Officer matures as follows: March 31, Amount --------- ----------- 2008 $ 2,635,569 2009 3,357,849 ----------- Total $ 5,993,418 =========== (6) Common Stock On December 16, 2006, the Company issued 7,000,000 shares of its common stock for proceeds of $7,000. On December 24, 2006, the Company issued 3,300,000 shares of its common stock for proceeds of $16,500. On October 29, 2007, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") between Orient Paper; CARZ Merger Sub, Inc., a Nevada corporation, and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company; DZH Limited; and the stockholders of DZH Limited. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Company issued to the stockholders of DZH Limited 29,801,987 shares of the F-13 ORIENT PAPER, INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MARCH 31, 2008, AND 2007 (UNAUDITED) Company's common stock, par value $0.001, in exchange for all of the issued and outstanding shares of stock of DZH Limited (50,000 shares). The shares of common stock of the Company were issued without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, and were distributed pro rata among the stockholders of DZH Limited in accordance with their respective ownership interests in DZH Limited immediately before completion of the merger transaction. As a result of the Merger Agreement, DZH Limited merged with CARZ Merger Sub, Inc., with DZH Limited as the surviving entity. As such, DZH Limited became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, which in turn, made the Company the indirect owner of DZH Limited's operating subsidiary, HBOP. For financial reporting purposes, DZH Limited is considered to have acquired Orient Paper by a reverse merger through the Merger Agreement, and its stockholders currently have voting control of the Company. As such, the accompanying financial statements and related disclosures in the notes to financial statements present the financial position as of March 31, 2008, and December 31, 2007, and the operations for the three months ended March 31, 2008, and 2007, of DZH Limited and its subsidiary HBOP under the name of Orient Paper. The reverse merger has been recorded as a recapitalization of the Company, with the consolidated net assets of DZH Limited and its wholly owned operating subsidiary HBOP, and net assets Orient Paper brought forward at their historical bases. The costs associated with the reverse merger have been expensed as incurred. On December 21, 2007, by a majority vote of the stockholders of the Company, the amount of authorized common stock, par value $0.001 per share, was increased from 75,000,000 shares to 500,000,000 shares. In addition, the Company eliminated preemptive rights to acquire unissued shares of its common stock. (7) Income Taxes The provision for income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2008, and 2007, was as follows (assuming a 33% effective tax rate): 2008 2007 --------- --------- Current Tax Provision: National and local- $ 570,153 $ 376,432 --------- --------- Total current tax provision $ 570,153 $ 376,432 ========= ========= (8) Change in the Board of Directors and Management Effective November 16, 2007, each of the following individuals were appointed by the Board of Directors of the Company to serve until his or her successor is chosen or upon his or her earlier resignation or removal as an officer of the Company in accordance with the Bylaws of the Company: Zhenyong Liu, Chief Executive Officer; Jing Hao, Chief Financial Officer; and, Dahong Zhou, Secretary. Effective November 30, 2007, Hui Ping Cheng resigned in her capacity as the sole member of the Board of Directors of the Company.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MARCH 31, 2008, AND 2007 (UNAUDITED) of Directors to serve until his or her successor is chosen or upon his or her earlier death, resignation, or removal as a member of the Board of Directors in accordance with the Bylaws of the Company. Zhenyong Liu was also appointed as Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company. (9) Recent Accounting Pronouncements In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, "The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities - Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115" ("SFAS No. 159"), which permits entities to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. An entity would report unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. The objective is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. The decision about whether to elect the fair value option is applied instrument by instrument, with a few exceptions; the decision is irrevocable; and it is applied only to entire instruments and not to portions of instruments. SFAS No. 159 requires disclosures that facilitate comparisons (a) between entities that choose different measurement attributes for similar assets and liabilities and (b) between assets and liabilities in the financial statements of an entity that selects different measurement attributes for similar assets and liabilities. SFAS No. 159 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of a fiscal year, provided the entity also elects to apply the provisions of SFAS No. 157. Upon implementation, an entity shall report the effect of the first re-measurement to fair value as a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. Since the provisions of SFAS No. 159 are applied prospectively, any potential impact will depend on the instruments selected for fair value measurement at the time of implementation. The management of the Company does not believe that this new pronouncement will have a material impact on its financial statements. In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141R, "Business Combinations - Revised 2007" ("SFAS No. 141R"), which replaces FASB Statement No. 141, "Business Combinations." SFAS No. 141R establishes principles and requirements intending to improve the relevance, representational faithfulness, and comparability of information that a reporting entity provides in its financial reports about a business combination and its effects. This is accomplished through requiring the acquirer to recognize assets acquired and liabilities assumed arising from contractual contingencies as of the acquisition date, measured at their acquisition-date fair values. This includes contractual contingencies only if it is more likely than not that they meet the definition of an asset of a liability in FASB Concepts Statement No. 6, "Elements of Financial Statements - a replacement of FASB Concepts Statement No. 3." This statement also requires the acquirer to recognize goodwill as of the acquisition date, measured as a residual. However, this statement improves the way in which an acquirer's obligations to make payments conditioned on the outcome of future events are recognized and measured, which in turn improves the measure of goodwill. This statement also defines a bargain purchase as a business combination in which the total acquisition-date fair value of the consideration transferred plus any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree, and it requires the acquirer to recognize that excess in earnings as a gain attributable to the acquirer. This, therefore, improves the representational faithfulness and completeness of the information provided about both the acquirer's earnings F-15 ORIENT PAPER, INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MARCH 31, 2008, AND 2007 (UNAUDITED) during the period in which it makes a bargain purchase and the measures of the assets acquired in the bargain purchase. The Company does not expect the adoption of this pronouncement to have a material impact on its financial statements. In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, "Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements - An amendment of ARB No. 51" ("SFAS No. 160"). SFAS No. 160 establishes new accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. Specifically, this statement requires the recognition of a noncontrolling interest (minority interest) as equity in the consolidated financial statements and separate from the parent's equity. The amount of net income attributable to the noncontrolling interest will be included in consolidated net income on the face of the income statement. SFAS No. 160 clarifies that changes in a parent's ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in deconsolidation are equity transactions if the parent retains its controlling financial interest. In addition, this statement requires that a parent recognize a gain or loss in net income when a subsidiary is deconsolidated. Such gain or loss will be measured using the fair value of the noncontrolling equity investment on the deconsolidation date. SFAS No. 160 also includes expanded disclosure requirements regarding the interests of the parent and its noncontrolling interest. SFAS No. 160 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Earlier adoption is prohibited. The management of the Company does not expect the adoption of this pronouncement to have a material impact on its financial statements. In March 2008, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 161, "Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - an amendment of FASB Statement 133" ("SFAS No. 161"). SFAS No. 161 enhances required disclosures regarding derivatives and hedging activities, including enhanced disclosures regarding how: (a) an entity uses derivative instruments; (b) derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under FASB No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities"; and (c) derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity's financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. Specifically, FASB No. 161 requires: o Disclosure of the objectives for using derivative instruments be disclosed in terms of underlying risk and accounting designation; o Disclosure of the fair values of derivative instruments and their gains and losses in a tabular format; o Disclosure of information about credit-risk-related contingent features; and o Cross-reference from the derivative footnote to other footnotes in which derivative-related information is disclosed. FASB No. 161 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. Earlier application is encouraged. The management of the Company does not expect the adoption of this pronouncement to have a material impact on its financial statements. In May 2008, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 162, "The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles" ("SFAS No. 162"). SFAS No. 162 identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles used in the preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. The sources of accounting principles that are generally accepted are categorized in descending order as follows: F-16 ORIENT PAPER, INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MARCH 31, 2008, AND 2007 (UNAUDITED) a) FASB Statements of Financial Accounting Standards and Interpretations, FASB Statement 133 Implementation Issues, FASB Staff Positions, and American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) Accounting Research Bulletins and Accounting Principles Board Opinions that are not superseded by actions of the FASB. b) FASB Technical Bulletins and, if cleared by the FASB, AICPA Industry Audit and Accounting Guides and Statements of Position. c) AICPA Accounting Standards Executive Committee Practice Bulletins that have been cleared by the FASB, consensus positions of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF), and the Topics discussed in Appendix D of EITF Abstracts (EITF D-Topics). d) Implementation guides (Q&As) published by the FASB staff, AICPA Accounting Interpretations, AICPA Industry Audit and Accounting Guides and Statements of Position not cleared by the FASB, and practices that are widely recognized and prevalent either generally or in the industry. (10) Subsequent Events On April 23, 2008, the Company established a 2008 Equity Incentive Plan ("Equity Incentive Plan"), granted to individuals who are affiliates of the Company. As part of this Equity Incentive Plan, the Company registered 5,000,000 shares of its common stock, proposing a maximum offering price of $0.75. As of May 15, 2008, the Company had issued an additional 5,000,000 shares of common stock as payment for services rendered to the Company valued at approximately $500,000. F-17 Item 2.

The section, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," is intended to facilitate the reader's understanding of the Company's audited financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. This section is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with, our unaudited financial statements included in this quarterly report and the accompanying notes to such financial statements. 2 Comparison of the Quarterly Periods Ended March 31, 2008, and 2007. The following table and subsequent discussion presents certain operating information derived from the statements of operations and comprehensive income for the three months ended March 31, 2008, and 2007 included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Three Months Ended Three Months Ended Mar. 31, 2008 Mar. 31, 2007 $ Percentage (Unaudited) (Unaudited) Change Change ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Revenues $13,528,033 $8,147,621 $5,380,412 66.04% ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cost of Sales 11,044,504 6,875,431 4,169,073 60.64% ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Gross Profit 2,483,529 1,272,190 1,211,339 95.22% ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- General and Administrative Expenses 220,957 72,852 148,105 203.29% ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Income from Operations 2,262,572 1,199,338 1,063,234 88.65% ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other Income (Expense) (106,960) (44,359) (62,601) 141.12% ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Income before Income Taxes 2,155,612 1,154,979 1,000,633 86.66% ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Income tax Expense (711,352) (376,432) (334,920) 88.97% ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Net Income 1,444,260 778,547 665,713 85.51% ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total Comprehensive Income $2,662,614 $964,356 $1,698,258 176.10% ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Revenues Revenues were $13,528,033 for the three months ended March 31 2008, an increase of $5,380,412 (or approximately 66.04%) over revenues of $8,147,621 for the three months ended March 31, 2007. The change in revenues was attributable to increased demand for our products as a result of the closure of many small paper milling companies because of heightened environmental laws and regulations. In addition to the increased demand, we launched a successful market expansion plan that increased our sales volume in the domestic market. Revenues also increased as a result of inflation which caused an increase in unit prices. Further, the Chinese currency (Renminbi Yuan) has been appreciating against the United States dollar, leading to an increase in revenues as reported in US dollars. Cost of Sales Cost of sales amounted to $11,044,504 for the three months ended March 31, 2008, an increase of $4,169,073 (or approximately 60.64%) over the cost of sales of $6,875,431 for the same period in 2007. The increase in cost of sales was attributable to the increase in our sales volume and an increase in the price of raw materials due to inflation. Gross Profit Gross profit was $2,483,529 for the three months ended March 31, 2008, an increase of $1,211,339 (or approximately 95.22%) over the gross profit of $1,272,190 for the three months ended March 31, 2007. The increase in gross profit was attributable to the fact that we experienced an increase in our sales and related pricing which was greater than the increases noted in related costs during the period. 3 General and Administrative Expenses General and administrative expenses were $220,957 for the three months ended March 31, 2008, an increase of $148,105 (or approximately 203.29%) over general and administrative expenses of $72,852 for the three months ended March 31, 2007. The increase in general and administrative expenses was attributable to increases in business travel and research expenses required to expand our production and market position. Income from Operations Income from operations was $2,262,572 for the three months ended March 31, 2008, an increase of $1,1063,234 (or approximately 88.65%) over income from operations of $1,199,338 for the same period in 2007. The increase in income from operations was attributable to higher net sales generated and the relatively lower cost of sales and general and administrative expenses compared to the growth of net sales. Other Income or Expense Other expense was $106,960 for the three months ended March 31, 2008, an increase of $62,601 (or approximately 141.12%) over other expenses of $44,359 for the three months ended March 31, 2007. The increase in other expense was attributable to a significant increase in interest expense on related debt. Income before Income Taxes Income before income taxes amount to $2,155,612 for the three months ended March 31, 2008, an increase of $1,000,633 (or approximately 86.66%) over income before income taxes of $1,154,979 for the three months ended March 31, 2007. The increase in income before income taxes was attributable to our rapid growth of net sales and relatively slower growth of our cost of sales, general and administrative expense, and other expenses. Income Tax Expense Income tax expense was $711,352 for the three months ended March 31, 2007, an increase of $334,920 (or approximately 88.97%) over income tax expense of $376,432 for the three months ended March 31, 2007. The increase in income tax expense was attributable to the increase in our income before income taxes. Net Income Net income was $1,444,260 for the three months ended March 31, 2008, an increase of $665,713 (or approximately 85.51%) over net income of $778,547 for the three months ended March 31, 2007. The increase in net income was attributable to the cumulative effect of the reasons discussed above. 4 Total Comprehensive Income Total comprehensive income was $2,662,614 for the three months ended March 31, 2008, which resulted from a foreign translation adjustment of $1,218,354. This represents an increase of approximately 176.10% from total comprehensive income of $964,356 for the three months ended March 31, 2007. The increase reflects the Company's higher net income and the fact that the foreign translation adjustment increased 555.7% from $185,809 for the three months ended March 31, 2007. Liquidity and Capital Resources As of March 31, 2008, we had cash and cash equivalents of $ $1,283,834. Cash flows from operating activities were $10,531,297 for the three months ended March 31, 2008, as compared to $978,245 for the three months ended March 31, 2007. Cash flows used in investing activities were $11,220,192 for the three months ended March 31, 2008, as compared to $404,718 for the three months ended March 31, 2007. Cash flows provided by financing activities were $131,714 for the three months ended March 31, 2008, as compared to $816,079 used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2007. We expect that our cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to satisfy our cash requirements for the next twelve months. As of March 31, 2008, we had loans due to an officer in the amount of $5,993,418. Advances from this officer to the Company have been as high as $8,009,731 during the past two years and, absent such advances, we could not have grown our business as we have done over the past two years. The obligations to this officer do not bear interest and are due in installments of $ $2,635,569 and $3,357,849, on March 31, 2008 and 2009, respectively. If the Company does not have sufficient liquidity to pay these loans when due, the officer could seek to collect the loans, which would have a material adverse effect on the business of the Company. On a long-term basis, our liquidity is dependent on successfully executing our business plan, receipt of revenues, and additional infusions of capital through equity and debt financing. Any funds raised from an offering of our equity or debt will be used to continue to develop and execute our business plan. However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional equity or debt financing on terms acceptable to us. We believe that the funds available to us are adequate to meet our operating needs for internally generated market expansion. Off-Balance-Sheet Arrangements We have never entered into any off-balance sheet financing arrangements and have never established any special purpose entities. We have not guaranteed any debt or commitments of other entities or entered into any options on non-financial assets. We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources that is material to any investor in our securities. 5 Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk. Not applicable. Item 4T. Controls and Procedures. We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in its Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, 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 based closely on the definition of "disclosure controls and procedures" in Rule 13a-15(e). In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized 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 necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. As of the end of the period covered by this report, our management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, have conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer and our chief financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them of material information relating to us that is required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act. There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting "Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting" was disclosed in our Report on Form 10-K/A filed with the SEC on April 15, 2008. Such discussion is incorporated herein by reference. Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting. During the quarterly period ending March 31, 2008, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation performed during the fiscal year covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
