We believe that after taking into account of our cash position, available bank facilities and cash generated from operating activities, we have adequate working capital to satisfy our current operating expenditures for the next twelve months. From time to time, we may identify new expansion opportunities for which there will be a need to use cash. We manage our cash based on thorough consideration of our corporate strategy as well as the macro economic situation. Factors we take into account when managing our cash include interest rates, foreign currency fluctuation as well as the flexibility in executing our acquisition strategy.We are currently building the cold storage facilities adjacent to the fishing port with a capacity of approximately 20,000 tons, to take advantage of its proximity to the port where we obtain fresh marine catch to be processed into seafood products. We intend to finance the total estimated $20.0 million in land use rights and construction costs from available funds and expect to run the new facility in the second half of 2011. We have paid approximately $11.6 million in relation to the construction costs as at December 31, 2010 so as to secure the overall construction costs associated with the cold storage facilities.After the registered direct offering of common stock and repayment of bank loans during 2010, the relative cost of capital resources decreased correspondingly given the increase in the equity financing and reduced level of debt borrowings.Apart from the expansion plan discussed above and the commitments set out in the section of “Commitments and Contingencies” herein, we do not have any other material commitments for capital expenditures and other expenditures. We believe that the current operating activities would be able to generate adequate cash flows supporting the daily operations. We do not have any further fund raising plan at the moment
