Due to the overall economic uncertainties in the global economy, credit tightening in China and under current circumstances of rising raw material prices and labor costs, the demand for our products in second quarter of 2011 decreased as compared to first quarter of 2011 as well as comparable quarter in 2010. Besides, due to the start up costs for Zhonghao Bio, the operating costs in second quarter increase from $0.51 million for three months ended March 31, 2011 to $0.64 million for three months ended June 30, 2011. Currently, we are focusing the efforts on streamlining the Company operations and enhancing efficiency at the new production facility in Harbin. The new production facility in Harbin Economic and Technological Development zone has commenced production in March 2011 and we have successfully consolidated the existing manufacturing facility from other location to this location, we believe that our manufacturing efficiency, quality and productivity will be enhanced dramatically to a higher competitive level.
"We are focused on expanding our capacity to meet the robust demand for our products. During the first quarter of 2011, our new state-of-the-art facility which is located in the Harbin Economic and Technological Development Zone has commenced production. The new facility allows us to operate more efficiently and will provide the ability to fill larger orders from our growing base of domestic and international customers. All in all, I am extremely excited about the future growth outlook for China Green Materials," concluded Mr. Su.

HARBIN, China, March 21, 2011 /PRNewswire-Asia-FirstCall/ -- China Green Material Technologies, Inc. today announced that it will restate its previously issued unaudited financial statements for the quarters ended June 30, 2010 and September 30, 2010 included in the Company's Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 16, 2010 and November 9, 2010, respectively, due to errors identified in these financial statements. This decision was made by the company's board of directors, upon the recommendation of the audit committee and in consultation with management. As a result of this decision, investors should no longer rely upon the Company's previously issued financial statements for these periods and any related earnings releases or other communications.
The financial statement errors related to the manner in which the Company accounted for warrants issued in April and July 2010 providing for the right to purchase an aggregate of 457,500 shares of the Company's common stock at $0.90 per share. Each of the warrants includes an anti-dilution provision that would adjust the warrant exercise price if the Company issues or sells any shares of common stock or securities convertible into common stock for a consideration per share of common stock less than the exercise price of the warrants. The errors were discovered by management as a result of a Securities and Exchange Commission comment letter received by Company after an SEC Staff review of certain Company filings.

"We are focused on expanding our capacity to meet the robust demand for our products. During the third quarter, we completed construction of our new state-of-the-art facility which is located in Harbin Economic and Technological Development Zone. We completed the buildout on schedule and once fully utilized, will enable us to produce 11,000 tons of finished products each year, which expands our currently capacity by 122%. We will scale into this during the coming year as we grow our revenues and gain additional market share. More specifically, we expect to be operating at 13,000 tons of capacity by the end of this year and scaling to full capacity at 20,000 tons by the end of 2011. The new facility allows us to operate more efficiently and will provide the ability to fill larger orders from our growing base of domestic and international customers.

We are beginning to see the benefits from the investments we have made to acquire intellectual properties, in addition to the expansion of our sales and marketing team which is supporting a broader distribution footprint. With a healthy pipeline of new products and the ability to produce customer orders, we are excited about our ability to become a stronger global competitor in the large and growing biodegradable products market."

We are especially excited about the long-term opportunity for biodegradable packaging, which is estimated by the International Association of Packaging Research Institutes to surpass $60 billion in total sales during 2010."
"We believe there is a significant market opportunity for China Green given our early mover advantage, intellectual property, expert R&D team and low-cost manufacturing process," continued Mr. Su Zhonghao. "In 2010 we plan to significantly expand our production capacity, with a new facility expected to come on line in the second half of this year. We anticipate the additional capacity, coupled with our targeted sales and marketing programs, will result in continued increases in revenues. Additionally, increased efficiency from the new manufacturing facility should enable us to expand our gross margins across all product lines."

1) further expanding our presence in China and entering key overseas markets, including the U.S., Italy, France, the U.K., Israel, Korea and Japan
