The Company's raw material costs increased in the third quarter of 2009. Also, in the fourth quarter of 2009, the Company incurred increased depreciation expenses following an increase in the Company's fixed assets (manufacturing equipment upgrades and furniture and fixtures) during the period.

Estimated net income for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2009 reflects fourth quarter TV advertising expenses of approximately RMB15.6 million ($2.3 million) for nationwide TV advertising on CCTV, China's national TV station, which represents an increase of RMB8.3 million ($1.2 million) from TV advertising expenses of RMB7.3 million ($1.1 million) incurred in the third quarter of 2009.

The Company's operating results may differ materially from the Company's current expectations because the Company's final operating results are subject to adjustment based upon, among other things, the finalization of its year-end closing, annual audit and reporting processes.
The Company anticipates reporting its fourth quarter and full fiscal year 2009 results in late February. More information on the Company's financial results will be provided at that time.
