These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties (some of which are beyond our control) or other assumptions that may cause actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of our assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary in material respects from those projected in these forward-looking statements.

CHINA RUITAI INTERNATIONAL HOLDINGS CO., LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
 
1.
ORGANIZATION AND DISCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

China Ruitai International Holdings Co., Ltd. (“China Ruitai” or the “Company”) was initially organized under the laws of the State of Delaware on November 15, 1955 as Inland Mineral Resources Corp. The Company subsequently changed its name to Parker-Levitt Corporation, and in 1997 changed its name to Commercial Property Corporation.  In 2006, the Company changed its name to Shandong Ruitai Chemical Co., Ltd. On March 12, 2007, the Company changed its name to China Ruitai International Holdings Co., Ltd. Since February 26, 2007, the Company’s fiscal year end is December 31.
 
On August 29, 2007, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with Pacific Capital Group Co., Ltd., (“Pacific Capital Group”), a corporation incorporated under the laws of the Republic of Vanuatu, and the Shareholders of Pacific Capital Group (the “Shareholders”). Pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement, the Shareholders agreed to transfer all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock in Pacific Capital Group to the Company in exchange for the issuance of an aggregate of 22,645,348 shares of the Company’s common stock, thereby causing Pacific Capital Group to become a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and TaiAn RuiTai Cellulose Co., Ltd. (“TaiAn Ruitai”), Pacific Capital Group’s majority-owned operating subsidiary, a Chinese limited liability company, to become a majority owned subsidiary of the Company. The parties closed the share exchange contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement on November 8, 2007.
 
Pacific Capital Group was incorporated on November 23, 2006 under the laws of the Republic of Vanuatu as a holding company, for the purposes of seeking and consummating a merger or acquisition with a business entity. On April 26, 2007, following the approval by the relevant governmental authorities in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”), Pacific Capital Group acquired a 99% ownership interest in TaiAn Ruitai, which was formed in the PRC on November 10, 1999 with registered capital of $2,391,840. As a result of the transaction, TaiAn Ruitai became a 99% majority-owned subsidiary of Pacific Capital Group.
 
TaiAn Ruitai is the only one of these affiliated companies that is engaged in business operations. China RuiTai and Pacific Capital Group are holding companies, whose business is to hold an equity ownership interest in TaiAn Ruitai. TaiAn Ruitai is engaged in the production, sales, and exportation of deeply processed chemicals, with a primary focus on non-ionic cellulose ether products. TaiAn Ruitai’s assets exist solely in the PRC, and its revenues are derived from its operations therein.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and include the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated on consolidation.
 
In addition, the Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going-concern basis which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company had significant negative working capital, which raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining necessary financing or achieving a consistently profitable level of operations. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to cease operations.
 
 
5

 

In order to continue as a going concern, the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources. Management’s plan is to obtain such resources for the Company by obtaining capital from management and significant shareholders sufficient to meet its minimal operating expenses and seeking equity and/or debt financing. However management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans.

The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2011, and for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 8-03 of Regulation S-X applicable to smaller reporting companies. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods have been made, and all adjustments are of a normal recurring nature (or a description of the nature and amount of any adjustments other than normal recurring adjustments). The unaudited consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2010 that are included in the Company’s 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Principle of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include China Ruitai, Pacific Capital Group and TaiAn RuiTai. All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
Non-controlling interest represents the ownership interests in the subsidiary that are held by owners other than the parent. In December 2007, the Financial Account Standards Board (“FASB”) issued “Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements — an amendment of ARB No. 51”, ASC Topic 810-10. ASC 810-10 requires that the non-controlling interest is reported in the consolidated statement of financial position within equity, separately from the parent’s equity and that net income or loss and comprehensive income or loss are attributed to the parent and the non-controlling interest.  If losses attributable to the parent and the non-controlling interest in a subsidiary exceed their interests in the subsidiary’s equity, the excess, and any further losses attributable to the parent and the non-controlling interest, is attributed to those interests.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. Management evaluates the estimates on an ongoing basis, including those related to accounts receivable and useful lives of property and equipment, fair values of warrant to purchase our common stock, and income taxes. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable represent amounts earned and are collectible from customers.  Accounts receivable are stated at the amount the Company expects to collect.  The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make the required payments and uses the specific identification method to record such allowances.  Management of the Company considers the following factors when determining the collectability of accounts receivable:  a customer’s credit-worthiness, past collection history, and changes in a customer’s payment terms. Allowance for doubtful accounts is made based on any specifically identified accounts receivable that may become uncollectible.

Inventory
 
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market value. Actual cost is used to value raw materials and supplies. Finished goods and work-in-progress are valued using the weighted-average-cost method. Elements of costs in finished goods and work-in-progress include raw materials, direct labor, and manufacturing overhead. Provision for diminution in value on inventories is made using specific identification method.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when the earnings process is complete. This generally occurs when products are shipped to unaffiliated customers or picked up by unaffiliated customers in the Company’s warehouse, title and risk of loss have been transferred, collectability is reasonably assured and pricing is fixed or determinable. The corresponding freight-out and handling costs are included in the selling expenses.

The Company does not provide an unconditional right of return, price protection or any other concessions to its customers.  Sales returns and other allowances have been immaterial in our operation.

Commercial leasing income is recognized ratably over the period of the commercial leasing asset rent contract. The commercial leasing asset is Taishan Building, which is located in Beijing and is entirely rented to Beijing Shengmei Hotel Management Company.

Impairment of long-lived assets

In accordance with Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets Subsections of ASC Subtopic 360-10, Property, Plant, and Equipment - Overall, long-lived assets, such as property, plant and equipment, and purchased intangible asset subject to amortization, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If circumstances require a long-lived asset or asset group be tested for possible impairment, the Company first compares undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by that asset or asset group to its carrying value. If the carrying value of the long-lived asset or asset group is not recoverable on an undiscounted cash flow basis, impairment is recognized to the extent that the carrying value exceeds its fair value. Fair value is determined through various valuation techniques including discounted cash flow models, quoted market values and third-party independent appraisals, as considered necessary. No impairment of long-lived assets was recognized for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-04, “Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs”, which is not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, “Presentation of Comprehensive Income”. Under the amendments in this ASU, an entity has two options for presenting its total comprehensive income: to present total comprehensive income and its components along with the components of net income in a single continuous statement, or in two separate but consecutive statements. The amendments in this ASU are required to be applied retrospectively and are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011, with early adoption permitted. The Company intends to conform to the new presentation required in this ASU beginning with its Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2012.  This pronouncement is not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

RELATED PARTY BALANCE TRANSACTIONS AND BALANCES

Purchase

The Company purchases hot steam from Shandong Ruitai, which is owned by Mr. Xingfu Lu, the President, and Mr. Dian Min Ma, the CEO of the Company. The Company purchased hot steam from Shandong Ruitai aggregating $709,092 and $1,018,258 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, and $1,444,576 and $2,177,233 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The cost of sales includes steam purchased from a related party but the precise amount could not reasonably be determined.

Land use right transaction
 
On October 25, 2006, the Company purchased the use right of a piece of land, approximately 36 acres, located in Wenyang County, Shandong Province, from Shandong Ruitai, for the original cost of $3,920,264. The local government approved the transaction and certified that the purchase price is at the fair market value. The consideration has been paid to the seller, and the title transfer is ongoing. Management believes the transaction is on terms no less favorable to the Company than those reasonably obtainable from third parties. The Company’s headquarters building and a production facility are located on this piece of land.

Due to related party

As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company had balance due to Shandong Ruitai of $567,327 and $2,526,474, respectively.

Notes payable to related party

As of June 30, 2011, the balance of notes payable to Shandong Ruitai is $24,292,124.  The loans were non-interest bearing for the purpose of financing the Company’s operations due to a lack of working capital, and have no fixed terms of repayment.

NOTES PAYABLE
 
The Company issues notes to certain suppliers which are guaranteed by the Company’s banks in lieu of payment of accounts payable.

The Company is required to make a restricted security deposit between 50% and 100% of the face amount of the notes in the banks until the notes are settled. Restricted cash for this purpose amounted to $24,075,507 and $10,254,394 as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.

Loan from employees represents loans from employees to finance the Company’s operations due to a lack of working capital. The Company paid 0.6% interest on these loans monthly for the period July 1, 2007 through March 31, 2009. Beginning from April 1, 2009, the Company pays 0.5% interest on these loans monthly. Cash flows from these activities are classified as cash flows from financing activities. Loan from employees was $1,698,447 as of June 30, 2011 and $1,470,138 as of December 31, 2010. The Company paid interest of $23,842 and $20,503 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and $46,773 and $42,555 for six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
 
16.
INCOME TAXES

The tax payables balance of $5,274,379 and $4,336,457 as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 represents the income tax accrual of TaiAn Ruitai. TaiAn Ruitai is subject to PRC income tax at a rate of 25%.

Income tax expenses were $531,859 and $477,076 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, which represents PRC current income taxes. Income tax expenses were $829,835 and $1,123,378 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, which represents PRC current income taxes.

The Company has not recorded tax provision for U.S. and Vanuatu tax purposes as they have no assessable profits arising in or derived from the United States or Vanuatu and intends to permanently reinvest accumulated earnings in the PRC operations.
 
The Company has a deferred tax asset on net operating losses of $184,280 as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets depends on the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those net operating losses are available. The Company considers projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making its assessment. At present, the Company does not have sufficient operations in the United States to conclude that it is more-likely-than-not that the Company will be able to realize all of its tax benefits in the near future and therefore a valuation allowance of $184,280 was established for the full value of the deferred tax asset.
 
A valuation allowance will be maintained until sufficient positive evidence exists to support the reversal of any portion or all of the valuation allowance. Should the Company start operations in the United States in future periods with a supportable trend, the valuation allowance will be reversed accordingly.
 
17.
STATUTORY RESERVES
 
Under PRC law, TaiAn Ruitai is required to provide for certain statutory reserves, namely a general reserve, an enterprise expansion fund and a staff welfare and bonus fund. The entity is required to allocate at least 10% of its after tax profits on an individual company basis as determined under PRC GAAP to the general reserve and have the right to discontinue allocations to the general reserve if such reserve has reached 50% of registered capital. Appropriations to the enterprise expansion fund and staff welfare and bonus fund are at the discretion of the Board of Directors of the entity. These reserves can only be used for specific purposes and are not transferable to the Company in the form of loans, advances, or cash dividends.

Both of the balances of statutory reserves as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 were $1,369,652, and for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company did not make appropriation in its statutory reserves since such reserve had reached 50% of registered capital.

CONCENTRATIONS AND CREDIT RISKS

At June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company had a credit risk exposure of cash in banks of $17,994,188 and $25,286,619, respectively, that is uninsured by the government authority. To limit exposure to credit risk relating to deposits, the Company primarily places cash deposits only with large financial institutions in the PRC with acceptable credit ratings.

The Company’s operations are carried out in the PRC. Accordingly, the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic and legal environment in the PRC as well as by the general state of the PRC’s economy. The business may be influenced by, among other things, changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion and remittance abroad, and rates and methods of taxation.

Major Customers

During the three months and six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company’s largest customer accounted 15% and 16%, respectively, of the Company’s net revenue. The outstanding account receivable balance for this customer was $480,749 as of June 30, 2011.No single customer accounted for 10% or more of the Company’s net revenue for the three months and six months ended June, 30, 2010.

Major Suppliers

During the three months ended June 30, 2011, three major suppliers accounted for 37% of the Company’s total purchases. The account payable balances for the three largest suppliers were $1,338,194 as of June 30, 2011. During the three months ended June 30, 2010, two major suppliers accounted for 23% of the Company’s total purchases. The account payable balances for the two largest suppliers were $27, 932 as of June 30, 2010.

 COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
 
Governmental control of currency conversion
The PRC government imposes controls on the convertibility of Renminbi into foreign currencies and, in certain cases, the remittance of currency out of the PRC. The Company receives most of its revenues in Renminbi, which is currently not a freely convertible currency. Shortages in the availability of foreign currency may restrict the Company’s ability to remit sufficient foreign currency to satisfy foreign currency dominated obligations.  Under existing PRC foreign exchange regulations, payments of current account items, including profit distributions, interest payments and expenditures from the transaction, can be made in foreign currencies without prior approval from the PRC State Administration of Foreign Exchange by complying with certain procedural requirements. However, approval from appropriate governmental authorities is required where Renminbi is to be converted into foreign currency and remitted out of China to pay capital expenses, such as the repayment of bank loans denominated in foreign currencies.
 
 
17

 
 
The PRC government may also at its discretion restrict access in the future to foreign currencies for current account transactions. If the foreign exchange control system prevents the Company from obtaining sufficient foreign currency to satisfy its currency demands, the Company may not be able to pay certain of its expenses as they come due.
 
Guaranteed Bank Loans
The Company has guaranteed certain loans for third-party enterprises, which, in turn, have guaranteed loans for the Company. These guarantees require payment from the Company in the event of default on payment by the respective debtor and, if the debtor defaults, the Company may be required to pay amounts outstanding under the related agreements in addition to the principal amount guaranteed, including accrued interest and related fees.
 
The Company and these third-party enterprises have been guaranteeing loans for each other in their day-to-day operations.  Both of these enterprises and the Company are considered good reputation debtors by local banks. The banks allow these companies to guarantee loans for each other instead of requiring the loans be secured by collateral.  None of the enterprises for which the Company has guaranteed loans has defaulted on any loan repayments, and accordingly, the Company has not recorded any liabilities or losses on such guarantees.
 
Bank loans that the Company has guaranteed for third-party enterprises consist of the following as of June 30, 2011:

ITEM 2.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis provides information that we believe is relevant to an assessment and understanding of our results of operations and financial condition for the six months ended June 30, 2011.  The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements and related Notes appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.
 
 
19

 
 
Results of Operations for the Six Month Period Ended June 30, 2011 Compared to the Six Month Period Ended June 30, 2010

Revenue
 
Revenue.  During the six month period ended June 30, 2011, we had revenues of $ 21,309,001 as compared to revenues of $21,409,431 during the six month period ended June 30, 2010, a slight decrease of 0.47%. The decrease in revenue was primarily attributable to the sales strategy change. Our sales are now focusing on high-end pharmaceutical products and the Polyvinyl chloride (“PVC”) products sector. Additionally, due to the fluctuation in the cost of materials, sales in the construction industry slightly declined.
  
Cost of Sales.  During the six month period ended June 30, 2011, our cost of sales was $14,785,951 as compared to costs of sales of $15,152,439 for the six month period ended June 30, 2010, a decrease of 2.42%. This decrease in cost of sales resulted primarily from a decrease in sales and the improvement in our energy saving system.

Operating Expenses

Our operating expenses are divided into selling expenses and general and administrative expenses, both of which are discussed below:
 
Selling Expenses. Selling expenses, which consist of sales commissions, freight charges, travel and other selling expenses, totaled $1,133,378 for the six month period ended June 30, 2011 as compared to $889,385 for the six month period ended June 30, 2010, an increase of 27.43%. This increase results primarily from: (i) an increase of in sales commissions compared to the same period of last year; and (ii) an increase of freight out expense in pharmaceutical and PVC products.
 
General and Administrative Expenses.  General and administrative expenses totaled $1,381,778 for the six month period ended June 30, 2011 as compared to $500,110 for the six month period ended June 30, 2010, an increase of 176.29%. There were two primary drivers behind this increase. First, employees’ payroll increased due to China’s inflation rate and the second was an $838,594 increase in bad debt expense in the first six months of 2011.
 
Income from Operations

For the six month period ended June 30, 2011, our income from operations was $4,007,894 as compared to income from operations of $4,867,497 for the six month period ended June 30, 2010, a decrease of 17.66%. This decrease was primarily attributable to a dramatic increase in selling, marketing expenses and general and administrative expenses, combined with a decrease in sales.

Commercial Leasing Income and Cost
 
For the six month period ended June 30, 2011, our commercial leasing income was $742,615 as compared to $614,957 for the six month period ended June 30, 2010, an increase of 20.76%. The increase was due to annual rental increase as agreed in the contract, as well as the appreciation of RMB. Rental income was from an acquired commercial property in Beijing. On December 31, 2009, we entered into a Set-Off Agreement with our related party, Shandong Ruitai Chemicals Co., Ltd. (“Shandong Ruitai”).  TaiAn, our subsidiary, agreed to permit Shandong Ruitai to satisfy a total of $31,745,649 in debt owed by Shandong Ruitai in exchange for Shandong Ruitai’s transfer of 100% of its ownership interest in real property located in Beijing, China, commonly known as Taishan Building, or Building No. 36, Xibahe Dongli, Chaoyang District, Beijing, China (the “Taishan Building”).

Interest Income

For the six month period ended June 30, 2011, our interest income was $178,381 as compared to $566,612 for the six month period ended June 30, 2010, a decrease of $388,231, or 68.52%. This decrease resulted primarily from the decrease of our average cash and restricted cash deposit in the bank.
 
 
20

 

 
Interest Expense

For the six month period ended June 30, 2011, we incurred interest expense in the amount of $1,536,782 as compared to $1,129,097 for the six month period ended June 30, 2010, an increase of 36.11%. The increase in interest expense resulted primarily from an increase of the weighted-average interest rate for bank loan in China, as well as the large increase of the interest paid for discounted notes receivable.

Income Tax Expense

Our income tax expense was $829,835 for the six month period ended June 30, 2011 as compared to $1,123,378 for the six month period ended June 30, 2010, a decrease of $293,543, or 26.13%. This decrease is primarily attributable to a decrease in profits before income taxes decreased from $4,513,526 in the six month period ended June 30, 2011 to $2,956,868 for the six month period ended June 30, 2010, a decrease of 34%.

Net Income attributable to China RuiTai

We had net income attributable to China RuiTai of $2,105,762 for the six month period ended June 30, 2011 as compared to $3,356,447 for the six month period ended June 30, 2010, a decrease of $1,250,685, or  37.26%.This decrease is primarily attributable to an increase in selling, general and administration expenses.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
The Company anticipates obtaining additional financing to meet the working capital requirements for its on-going projects and to sustain the business operations for the next twelve months. The Company is exposed to certain risks for significant negative working capital as indicated on the balance sheet, which increases the concern for management’s ability to fulfill the Company’s working capital requirements as well as the ability to continue as a going concern.  The risk is mainly the result of a high level of short-term bank borrowings pursuant to which China RuiTai has a proven record of excellent credit history with the local bank for the past ten years. We do not believe additional debt financing from the bank to fulfill the working capital requirements will be an issue due to the track record of the Company’s credit history and the solid relationship with the local bank. In the event of a default under the bank borrowings, the Company has a $37,481,694 commercial leasing asset, “Taishan Building”, located at Building No. 36, Xibahe Dongli, Chaoyang District, Beijing, which can be sold in the open market. 
 
Results of Operations for the Three Month Period Ended June 30, 2011 Compared to the Three Month Period Ended June 30, 2010
 
Revenue
 
Revenue.  During the three month period ended June 30, 2010, we had revenues of $11,722,184 compared to revenues of $11,171,175 during the three month period ended June 30, 2010, an increase of 4.93%. The increase in revenue was primarily attributable to: (i) the increase in the product prices; and (ii) the change in our sales strategy.  In April 2011, we started to merge into high-end pharmaceutical products and the PVC sector, focusing on the Hvdroxyethyl Cellulose (“HEC”) market.
 
Cost of Sales.  During the three month period ended June 30, 2011, our cost of sales was $8,001,818 compared to costs of sales of $8,222,567 for the three month period ended June 30, 2010, a decrease of 2.68%. This decrease in cost of sales resulted in an improvement in energy savings.
 
Operating Expenses
 
Our operating expenses are divided into selling expenses and general and administrative expenses, both of which are discussed below:
 
Selling Expenses.  Selling expenses, which consist of sales commissions, freight charges, travel and other selling expenses, totaled $604,849 for the three month period ended June 30, 2011, compared to the selling expenses of $530,310 for the three month period ended June 30, 2010, an increase of 14.06%. This increase results primarily from an increase of freight charge.
 
 
21

 

 
General and Administrative Expenses.  General and administrative expenses totaled $660,283 for the three month period ended June 30, 2011 compared to $215,858 for the three month period ended June 30, 2010, an increase of 205.89%. The main reason for the increase can be attributed to (i)  employees payroll increase according to China’s inflation rate; and (ii) a $422,988 increase in bad debt expense in the three month period ended June 30, 2011.
 
Income From Operations
 
For the three month period ended June 30, 2011, our income from operations was $2,455,234 compared to income from operations of $2,202,440 for the three month period ended June 30, 2010, an increase of 11.48%. This increase was primarily attributable to higher sales and lower cost of sales net of increases in operating activities.
 
Commercial Leasing Income and cost
 
For the three month period ended June 30, 2011, our commercial leasing income was $373,832 as compared to $311,774 for the three month period ended June 30, 2010, an increase of 19.90%. The increase was due to annual rental increase as agreed in the contract, as well as the appreciation of RMB. Rental income was from an acquired commercial property in Beijing. On December 31, 2009, we entered into a Set-Off Agreement with our related party, Shandong Ruitai.  TaiAn, our subsidiary, agreed to allow Shandong Ruitai to satisfy a total of $31,745,649 in debt owed by Shandong Ruitai in return for Shandong Ruitai’s transfer of 100% of its ownership interest in real property located in Beijing, China, commonly known as Taishan Building. As a result, starting in the first quarter of 2010, the Taishan Building has generated rental income of $373,832 for the three month period ended June 30, 2011.
 
Interest Income
 
For the three month period ended June 30, 2011, our interest income was $90,940 compared to interest income of $175,432 for the three month period ended June 30, 2010, a decrease of $84,492, or 48.16%. The decrease of interest income is because of a decrease of our average cash and restricted cash deposit in the bank.
 
Interest Expense
 
For the three month period ended June 30, 2011, we incurred interest expense in the amount of $796,829 compared to interest expense of $550,610 for the three month period ended June 30, 2010, an increase of 44.72%. The increase in interest expense resulted primarily from an increase of the weighted-average interest rate for the bank loan in China, as well as the large increase of the interest paid for discounted notes receivable.
 
Income Tax Expense
 
Our income tax expense was $531,859 for the three month period ended June 30, 2011 compared to $477,076 for the three month period ended June 30, 2010, an increase of $54,783, or 11.48%. This increase can be primarily attributed to an increase in profits before income taxes and an increase of minority interest from $1,908,305 in the three month period ended June 30, 2010 to $1,915,565 for the three month period ended June 30, 2011, an overall increase of 0.38%. 

Net Income attributable to China RuiTai
