Business

Corporate History

Asia Carbon Industries, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated in the State of Maryland on June 23, 2008. Through the steps described below, we became the indirect holding company for Taiyuan Hongxing Carbon Black, Ltd. ("Hongxing"), a manufacturer of carbon black products in the People's Republic of China ("PRC"), on December 29, 2009.

On November 10, 2008, we formed Jinzheng Liteweisi Carbon (Taiyuan) Co., Ltd. (“Liteweisi”) as our wholly-owned subsidiary and a "wholly foreign-owned enterprise" in the PRC.

The laws of the PRC place restrictions on round trip investments, which are defined under PRC law as an acquisition of a PRC entity by an offshore special purpose vehicle owned by one or more PRC residents. To comply with these restrictions, on December 29, 2009, we, through Liteweisi, entered into Entrusted Management, Exclusive Option, Exclusive Purchase, Pledge of Equity and Shareholders’ Voting Proxy Agreements (collectively, the “Entrusted Agreements”) with Hongxing and shareholders of Hongxing, Guoyun Yan and Chunde Meng (the “Hongxing Shareholders”). Asia Carbon issued 36,239,394 restricted shares of its common stock to Karen Prudente, nominee and trustee for the Hongxing Shareholders, for Hongxing and the Hongxing Shareholders entering into the Entrusted Agreements. Karen Prudente’s role with respect to the restricted shares held by the Hongxing Shareholders is to manage the trust of the Hongxing Shareholders. These restricted shares issued to Karen Prudente were issued in reliance upon the exemptions set forth in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, on the basis that they were issued under circumstances not involving a public offering. As a result of the aforementioned transaction, the Hongxing Shareholders obtained control of the Company.

Generally, we provide Hongxing with technology consulting and management services pursuant to the Entrusted Agreements, the material terms are as follows:

Entrusted Management Agreement – pursuant to this agreement entered into by and among the Hongxing Shareholders, Hongxing, and Liteweisi, the Hongxing Shareholders and Hongxing entrust the management of Hongxing to Liteweisi until (a) the winding up of Hongxing, (b) the termination date of the agreement as determined by the parties, or (c) the date on which Liteweisi acquires Hongxing. During the term, Liteweisi is fully and exclusively responsible for the management of Hongxing. In consideration of such services, the Hongxing Shareholders and Hongxing will pay a fee to Liteweisi as set forth in the agreement.

Exclusive Option Agreement – pursuant to this agreement entered into by and among Liteweisi, the Hongxing Shareholders, and Hongxing, the Hongxing Shareholders grant Liteweisi an irrevocable exclusive purchase option to purchase all or part of the shares of Hongxing, currently owned by any of the Hongxing Shareholders. Further, Hongxing grants Liteweisi an irrevocable exclusive purchase option to purchase all or part of the assets and business of Hongxing. Liteweisi and the Hongxing Shareholders will enter into relevant agreements regarding the price of acquisition based on the circumstances of the exercise of the option, and the consideration shall be refunded to Liteweisi or Hongxing at no consideration in an appropriate manner decided by Liteweisi. Upon the exercise of the option, Liteweisi will be subject to non-competition restrictions as set forth in the agreement.

Exclusive Purchase Agreement – pursuant to this agreement entered into by and among Liteweisi and Hongxing, Hongxing grants to Liteweisi the sole and exclusive right of purchasing all the products produced and manufactured by Hongxing at a price which is equal to the total cost of the products subject to adjustments by the parties’ mutual written agreement.

Pledge of Equity Agreement –pursuant to this agreement entered into by and among the Hongxing Shareholders (as Pledgors), and Liteweisi (as Pledgee), the equity interest of the Hongxing Shareholders is pledged to guarantee all of the rights and interest Liteweisi is entitled to under the Entrusted Management Agreement, the Exclusive Option Agreement, and the Shareholders’ Voting Proxy Agreement. The Hongxing Shareholders pledge, by way of a first priority pledge, all of its rights, title and interest in (i) 100% of the equity interest in Hongxing, (ii) 100% of the registered capital of Hongxing, (iii) all investment certificates and other documents in respect of the registered capital of Hongxing, (iv) all money, dividends, interest and benefits at any time arising in respect of all the equity interest and registered capital of Hongxing, and (v) all voting rights and all other rights and benefits attaching to or accruing to the equity interst of the registered capital of Hongxing to Liteweisi.

Table of Contents

Shareholders’ Voting Proxy Agreement – pursuant to this agreement entered into by and among the Hongxing Shareholders and Liteweisi, the Hongxing Shareholders irrevocably appoint the persons designated by Liteweisi with the exclusive right to exercise, on their behalf, all of their voting rights of Hongxing. The persons designated by Liteweisi shall be the full board of directors of Liteweisi.

When we sell our equity or borrow funds we expect the proceeds will be forwarded to Hongxing and accounted for as a loan to Hongxing and eliminated during consolidation. We may also use the proceeds to repurchase our capital stock or for our corporate overhead expenses. If we borrow funds we expect to be the primary obligor on any debt. For example, in April 2010 we raised $1,368,464, and in May 2010, we raised $1,667,984 in two private placements from certain non-affiliated accredited investors in a private placement of our common stock. Net proceeds after our expenses were provided to Hongxing through Liteweisi.

The Entrusted Agreements empowered Asia Carbon, through Liteweisi, the ability to substantially influence Hongxing’s daily operations and financial affairs, appoint its senior executives and approve all matters requiring shareholders’ approval. As a result of these Entrusted Agreements, which obligates Asia Carbon to absorb a majority of the risk of loss from Hongxing’s activities and enable Asia Carbon to receive a majority of its expected residual returns, Asia Carbon, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, accounts for Hongxing as its Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”) under ASC 810-10. Accordingly, Asia Carbon consolidates Hongxing’s operating results, assets and liabilities.

By causing our subsidiary Liteweisi to enter into the Entrusted Agreements, we obtained substantially the same result as a direct share exchange, which is to permit us to consolidate the financial results of Hongxing as our VIE.

The following diagram sets forth the corporate structure of the Company as of December 31, 2011:

Table of Contents

Neither Asia Carbon nor Liteweisi has any operations or plans to have any operations in the future other than acting as a holding and management company for Hongxing and raising capital for its operations. However, we reserve the right to change our operating plans regarding Asia Carbon and Liteweisi.

History of Hongxing

Hongxing, the primary entity through which we operate our business, was formed on December 4, 2003 as a limited liability company under the laws of the PRC, under the approval of Shanxi Development and Reform Commission. In December 2009, Hongxing and Liteweisi, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Asia Carbon, entered into a number of contractual agreements by which Liteweisi was entrusted to manage and operate Hongxing. These contractual agreements, described in further detail above, also provide for the consolidation of the financial statements of Asia Carbon, Liteweisi, and Hongxing.

Business of Hongxing

We are a holding company that, through our wholly-owned subsidiary Liteweisi and our variable interest entity ("VIE") Hongxing, manufactures in the PRC a series of high quality carbon black products under the brand name “Great Double Star.”

According to Company research, we are one of the top ten carbon black producers in Shanxi Province in China and have relationships with a high-profile customer base. Revenue and net income have grown consistently since inception, and in 2011, we reported revenues of $49.1 million, a 65% increase over 2010, and $7.3 million in net income, a 123% increase compared to 2010.

Carbon black is a deep black powder with a number of applications. Derived from the controlled combustion of coal tar or residual oil feedstock, carbon black’s desirable chemical properties make it a critical raw material for many industries. It is widely used within the rubber industry as reinforcing filler; the paint and coating industry use carbon black as coloring agent and it is used in batteries as a conductive agent. Carbon black is used predominately by the automotive tire industry, where it can improve rubber’s strength, wear resistance, and life span, and thus lower the overall cost of tire products.

Hongxing manufactures carbon black through a combination of dry method and wet method production. In 2010, the Company directed resources to converting one of its existing lines into a wet method production line to produce better quality, lower cost, and more environmentally friendly carbon black. The new wet line commenced full operation in the fourth quarter of 2010.

Industry Overview

While growth in worldwide demand may slow down, it is anticipated that China’s domestic demand will continue to bolster a healthy rubber market.

China is the world’s second largest producer of carbon black. According to the latest available report, a 2008 report by Dong Fang Securities, a national and comprehensive securities company in China that provides services like security underwriting, brokerage, investment consulting, and financial advising, the rubber industry accounts for 89.5% of worldwide carbon black consumption, 67.5% of which is used for tire manufacturing and 9.5% is for other rubber car parts (such as fan belts, bumpers, etc.). Other rubber industries account for 12.5%. The remaining 10.5% is used in other non-rubber industries like ink, coating, plastic, etc.

It is management’s belief based on industry experience that modern carbon black products are an adaption of early "lamp blacks," first produced in China over 3,500 years ago, when printers used the soot generated from burning oil in lamps to make ink. The technology did not change much until advances in the twentieth century facilitated cost-effective mass production. Today, carbon black is primarily produced from "sour" gas (natural gas that contains hydrogen sulfide or sulfur) and coal tar (one of the by-products formed when coal is carbonized to make coke or gasified to make coal gas).

Table of Contents

It is our belief based on industry experience that the “dry” granulation method was traditionally used to produce carbon black. While this method is efficient, it has drawbacks. In its initial form, carbon black is a fluffy, black powder, which is difficult to handle and easily released into the atmosphere where it can be breathed in by workers. Without proper ventilation and worker protection, this can be a health hazard. Carbon black dust can also get into small, even closed spaces, such as electrical boxes, making it difficult to keep the work area clean.

It is also our belief based on industry experience that carbon black supplies were initially produced largely in the United States ("US"), predominately in oil producing areas such as Texas. However, as environmental and employee health concerns grew, production in the US decreased substantially. The shortfall was made up for in countries like China, where regulations are less stringent and labor is more accessible and less expensive. Today, these countries account for the majority of global production.

Over time, efforts to improve the overall manufacturing process resulted in the development of a “wet” granulation production method. This wet process virtually eliminates the carbon dust and provides additional benefits. Wet manufacturing lowers the cost of producing carbon black, leaves a smaller environmental footprint, and yields a final product that is denser and more durable. As a result, longer lasting end products are produced. The Company is converting one of its existing lines from dry granulation to the wet production method.

Carbon Black Industry in China

According to China’s Carbon Black Association, the only national organization in the carbon black industry in China whose mandate is to assist the government to supervise the industry, conduct industry research and statistics, and to publish such research findings, and whose data are widely used and regarded as authoritative, of which Hongxing is a member, indicated that in 2007, the aggregate net revenue for its 39 members was $485 million, a 55.87% increase as compared to 2006. Sales volume for 2007 was 1.78 million tons, an increase of 31.17% compared to 2006. As a whole, China’s carbon black production capacity continues to grow; in 2008, the total output of carbon black in China reached 2.43 million tons, a 5.65% increase of 2.3 million tons from the total output in 2007. In 2009, the total output of carbon black reached 2.83 million tons. The total output of carbon black in 2010 was approximately 3.25 million tons and approximately 3.85 million tons in 2011.

There are several factors affecting China’s carbon black market. The following is an overview of the key issues.

The total output of carbon black is in surplus, but the availability of high-quality and wet-granulation carbon black varieties for radial tire production is still insufficient to meet demand. As this continues to improve, and the quality, price and performance of China’s products can satisfy the requirements in the international market, China’s exports will continue to rise. In China, tire manufacturing accounts for more than 80% of total carbon black consumption. According to the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers, a self-regulatory and non-profit organization for auto manufacturers, spare part manufacturers and related industries approved by the Ministry of Civil Affairs of China, auto sales were 18.50 million, 18.00 million and 13.64 million in 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively, making China the largest auto market in the world. In the next few years, it is also expected that more and more global tire manufacturers will shift their production base to China. Overseas and domestic market demands will stimulate tire industry growth, which, in turn, increases the demand within the carbon black industry.

To accelerate the industrial restructuring, and prevent redundant low-level construction and environmental pollution, the PRC strengthened its regulation over the carbon black industry in June 2002, issuing "The Directory of the Elimination of Outdated Production Capacity, Processes and Products." According to the Directory, any dry granulation device with annual production capacity of less than or equal to 10,000 tons of carbon black was to be eliminated. This decree resulted in more than 70 small-scale carbon black manufacturing companies withdrawing from the market due to outdated technology. As the market of carbon black intensifies, small-scale and poor performing enterprises will be eliminated. The China market favors large enterprises with great production capacity and modern technology.

It is management’s belief based on industry experience that China’s Eleventh Five-year Plan (2006-2010) with respect to the carbon black industry targets the development and production of high-quality and high-grade varieties for radial tires, especially for "green" high performance tires and tires with low rolling-resistance. As demand for conventional carbon black varieties for basic tires and other downstream sectors decreases, the Five-Year Plan encourages the carbon black sector to make greater effort in technical innovation and product development to satisfy the demand in the tire market.

While benefiting companies such as Hongxing, with the capability and resources to heed these government initiatives, such directives also serve as barriers to entry for new firms who must secure construction and environmental permits; many new projects have been rejected due to deviation from environmental protection standards. In recent years, China’s carbon black companies have made great strides to achieve energy conservation and emission reduction.

Properties of Carbon Black

The main three properties of carbon black are:

Particle Size

The diameter of spherical particles is the fundamental property which largely affects blackness and dispersibility when carbon black is mixed with resins or other vehicles. In general, the smaller the particle size is, the higher the blackness of carbon black becomes. Dispersion, however, becomes difficult due to an increase in coagulation force.

Structure

Like particle size, the size of the structure also affects the blackness and dispersibility of carbon black. Generally, the increase of structure size improves dispersibility but lowers blackness. Carbon black with a larger structure in particular shows an excellent conductive property.

Surface Chemistry

Various functional groups exist on carbon black’s surface. The affinity of carbon black with inks or paint varnishes changes depending on the type and amount of the functional groups.

Carbon black, with a large amount of hydroxyl group given with oxidation treatment, has a greatly enhanced affinity to print inks or varnishes, showing an excellent dispersibility.

Table of Contents

Production of Carbon Black

Carbon black is produced with the thermal decomposition method or the partial combustion method using hydrocarbons such as oil or natural gas as raw material.

The characteristics of carbon black vary depending on manufacturing process, and therefore carbon black is classified by manufacturing process. Carbon black produced with the furnace or “dry” process, which was traditionally used, is called “furnace black,” distinguishing it from carbon black, which is manufactured with other processes.

The Company’s three production lines use the dry granulation method to produce carbon black. This method forms carbon black by blowing petroleum oil or coal oil as raw material (feedstock oil) into high-temperature gases to combust them partially. This method is suitable for mass production due to its high yield, and allows wide control over its properties such as particle size or structure. This is currently the most common method used for manufacturing carbon black for various applications from rubber reinforcement to coloring.

While this is efficient, a significant amount of carbon dust is generated. It is this dust which causes health and environmental concerns. The “wet” granulation lines that Hongxing completed on October 26, 2010, provide a number of significant benefits, including gas comprehensive utilization, lowering black carbon production cost, reducing environmental pollution, increasing black carbon product quality, and increased varieties of black carbon. The new wet line has an annual capacity of 25,000 tons of carbon black.

Products

The Company currently manufactures one “soft” and two “hard” carbon black products, called N660, N330, and N220, respectively. The Company’s main product N660, is a soft carbon black which has the flexibility necessary for the production of automobile tire inner tubes and hoses. The Company also produces N220 and N330 hard carbon black. N220 hard carbon black, which has good strength and elongation properties, is mainly used in the manufacturing of automobile tires. The N330 hard carbon black has a lower production cost and is mainly used in manufacturing sides of automobile tires.

The demand for hard carbon black is significantly higher than the demand for the soft.

At the end of 2011, the market price of dry N220 hard carbon black was $1,008 per ton, of wet N220 hard carbon black was $1,090 per ton, of N330 hard carbon black was $952 per ton, and of N660 soft carbon black was $934 per ton. At the end of 2010, the market price of dry N220 hard carbon black was $1,036 per ton, of wet N220 hard carbon black was $1,139 per ton, of N330 hard carbon black was $984 per ton, and of N660 soft carbon black was $984 per ton. In terms of profitability, wet N220 is the most profitable product (the cost of producing wet N220 is the lowest among the three products). Producing a ton of wet N220 carbon black requires roughly 1.7 tons -1.8 tons of coal tar, and the profit margin is about 30%; producing a ton of wet N660 soft carbon black requires roughly 1.7 – 1.8 tons of coal tar, and the profit margin is about 18%; while producing a ton of N220 or N330 hard carbon black requires about 1.9 tons of coal tar, and the profit margin is only 6% -11%.

Manufacturing

The dry production of carbon black includes five processes: the supply of raw materials process, carbon black cracking process and use of waste heat process, separation of carbon black process, dry granulation, and packaging process, as illustrated in the following diagram. Each of the Company’s production lines typically runs for 11 months of the year, leaving one month for repair and maintenance.

Uses for Carbon Black

Practically all rubber products which require good tensile and abrasion wear properties use carbon black, thus they are black in color. Where physical properties are important but colors other than black are desired, such as white tennis shoes, precipitated or fused silica is typically substituted. The most common use of carbon black has been as a reinforcing agent in tires. Today, because of its unique properties, the uses of carbon black have expanded to include pigmentation, ultraviolet (UV) stabilization and conductive agents in a variety of everyday and specialty high performance products, including:

Tires and Industrial Rubber Products

Carbon black is added to rubber as both a filler and as a strengthening or reinforcing agent. For various types of tires, it is used in inner liners, carcasses, sidewalls and treads utilizing different types based on specific performance requirements. Carbon black is also used in many molded and extruded industrial rubber products, such as belts, hoses, gaskets, chassis bumpers, and multiple types of pads, boots, wiper blades, fascia, conveyor wheels, and grommets. A typical car tire contains approximately 3.63 kg of carbon black.

Coloring Agent for Ink and Paints

Carbon black has higher tinting strength compared to iron black or organic pigments, and is widely used for newspaper inks, printing inks, India inks, and paints. Carbon black is also used as black pigment for inkjet ink or toners. Carbon blacks enhance formulations and deliver broad flexibility in meeting specific color requirements.

Resin and Film Coloring Agents

Carbon black has high tinting strength and is thermally stable, and therefore it is widely used for general coloring for resins and films. Carbon black is also excellent for absorbing ultraviolet light, providing both a superb resistance against ultraviolet rays and a coloring effect when just a small amount is mixed with resins. Carbon black based resins are used in automobile bumpers, wire coverings and steel pipe linings which require weather resistance in particular.

Electric Conductive Agent

Carbon black particles have a graphite-like crystalline structure, providing excellent electric conductivity. Therefore, carbon black is widely used as conductive filler, mixed in plastics, elastomers, paints, adhesives, films, and pastes. For example, fuel caps and fuel-introducing pipes for automobiles are required to provide electric conductivity for preventing static and carbon black is an excellent antistatic agent.

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Compounds:

Carbon blacks can be designed to transform electrical characteristics from insulating to conductive in products such as electronics packaging, safety applications, and automotive parts.

Plastics

Carbon blacks are widely used for conductive packaging, films, fibers, moldings, pipes and semi-conductive cable compounds in products such as refuse sacks, industrial bags, photographic containers, agriculture mulch film, stretch wrap, and thermoplastic molding applications for automotive, electrical/electronics, household appliances and blow-molded containers.

Table of Contents

High Performance Coatings:

Carbon blacks provide pigmentation, conductivity, and UV protection for a number of coating applications including automotive (primer basecoats and clearcoats), marine, aerospace, decorative, wood, and industrial coatings.

Raw Materials and Equipment

The principal raw material used in our manufacture of carbon black is the residual heavy oils derived from distillation of coal tars. Raw material costs generally are influenced by the availability of various types of carbon black feedstock and natural gas, and related transportation costs.

Shanxi Province, where Hongxing’s facilities are located, is rich in coal tar resources, giving the Company an ample supply of raw materials. Even under serious competition for coal tar supply, Hongxing’s management believes that it would be able to stabilize its supply chain. Additionally, as Hongxing expands its operations, it anticipates that it will garner greater purchasing power, which in turn will bring the company greater leverage in pricing.

We have entered into long term contracts with a number of suppliers. Such long term contracts in our industry are typically for one year terms due to the fluctuating prices of raw materials. We believe these contracts help us maintain regular production capacity even when supply experiences a shortage. During the year, the contracts guarantee the supply of specified amount of raw materials from the supplier, but the exact purchase price is determined by market conditions at the time purchase occurs. We keep good relationships with our suppliers, and we believe they grant us priority in purchase of raw materials at a competitive price. Because the price of raw materials fluctuates in accordance with supply and demand, the price of our end products will reflect the price fluctuation of the raw materials.

Production equipment includes the following: burning furnace, reaction furnace, heat collecting furnace, air heater, dyer, industrial blender, air blower, industrial vacuum, oil pre heater, pressuring air generator, oil pump, water pump, air filter, lifter, storage container, packaging machine, DCS controller etc. Production equipment is manufactured according to our specifications in accordance with national safety standards.

Sales and Marketing

Because carbon black is essentially a commodity and there are relatively few large end users, the industry is relationship and price-driven rather than directed by marketing efforts. To that end, Hongxing’s sales team focuses on spending time with existing and potential customers. Hongxing has assigned an exclusive sales person for each major market, and each of its target customers is visited frequently. Currently, the majority of sales occur in Shandong, Jiangsu and Guangdong Provinces.

Hongxing’s target market is large rubber companies and tire producers, and the Company’s management believes it has strong relationships with existing customers. With its effective, dedicated sales network, high quality product, reasonable price and strong after-sale service, management believes that as much as 90% of Chinese tire manufacturers are familiar with its products.

Currently our production falls short of market demand. In spite of this, we seek to expand our business presence and distribution channels in China. We have established an office in Qingdao, Shandong province, with plans to expand our business into areas where major tire manufacturers are located.

We plan to promote our products and increase our brand awareness through our relationships with several trade companies in Qingdao, Shangdong Province, where enterprises situated within the area enjoy the preferential policies such as tax rebates for exports and tax-free trading within the bonded area. Meanwhile, we will continue to cultivate good relations with additional rubber and plastic companies.

Growth Strategy

We have a multi-prong growth strategy, with the objective of establishing the Company as a leading manufacturer and marketer in China’s growing carbon black sector, with a particular emphasis in the tire and automotive industries.

To execute this strategy, we intend to implement the following plan:

Complete conversion of existing production facilities. The primary component of this strategy is the addition of wet processing capabilities, which will provide the Company and its customers with several benefits, as discussed below. The capacity of the first completed wet line is approximately 25,000 tons per year.

Low-carbon and clean production. To pave the way to low-carbon and clean production, we seek to use natural gas to enhance its production process for energy conservation and emission reduction. Once completed, both dry and wet production line could use natural gas to operate, which will increase the quality of our products. Secondly, we are planning to build a power plant to recycle the tail gas produced in the manufacturing process to generate electricity needed in the production.

Development of superior end product. Wet carbon black products are more stable than dry carbon black products in quality and performance. In the next five years, we believe our clients will require their carbon black to be denser and of higher quality to satisfy these three properties: lower rolling resistance, higher wet skid resistance, and stronger wear resistance. This denser, higher quality carbon black can only be produced through wet processing means.

Improved Margins. The wet granulation method will improve the gross profit margin also. While the raw materials expense is the same, the wet process will consume less raw materials and yield higher quality end product, enabling the Company to charge a premium for wet process carbon black.

While demand for wet carbon black will gradually replace dry carbon black as an important raw material in the rubber tire industry, we anticipate that dry carbon black will still be in demand as many factories still utilize it for lower cost products.

Expansion of the distribution network . Management believes the domestic market represents a substantial opportunity, particularly as China’s rural economy is modernized. The nation’s growing “middle class” continues to increase demand for automobiles. To this end, we will continue to add to our dedicated sales force within existing markets, in addition to expanding into new geographic areas.

Expansion of production capacity. We will continue to expand our current production capacity in the future. We intend to add new wet granulation production lines. We have the option of building a new wet line with 40,000 tons of capacity per year, or acquiring a target company with wet production capacity. We will continue to evaluate alternatives to add production capacity to our carbon black operation by analyzing the cost benefits of acquisition versus build out.

Investment in recyclable energy. In conjunction with the addition of these new production lines, subject to the availability of financing, the Company intends to construct a thermal power plant within its facility campus that would use the tail gas generated from the manufacturing of the carbon black to generate electricity. There are no specific plans for construction of a thermal plant at this time.

Continue to Develop and Market New Products. As China continues the shift from an agricultural market to a “controlled” capitalist environment, the demand for other carbon black related products, such as toner, high performance paints, electric materials, etc. is expected to expand as well. Management will be opportunistic in its approach to new product development. Line extensions are expected to come as a result of thorough internal research and development, customer requests, and acquisitions. In conjunction with the expansion of production capacity, we plan to continue to target and cater to the needs of both our new and existing customers.

Quality Control

Carbon black dust spreads easily in the air through virtually any air current or movement. Additionally, because carbon black is a pigment, it can stain exposed surfaces. We remain concerned with the effects of our operations on our employees and the environment, and to that end, management has instituted specific procedures that minimize the production of dust and optimize working conditions. These specific procedures entail strengthening the Company’s previous measures and standards, including upgrading the granulator, installing the dust-absorption to equipment by section and classification, and upgrading previously manual operations to a numerically controlled automatic packing system.

It is management’s belief based on industry experience that generally, there are no negative clinical health effects to the manufacture of carbon black. However, our facilities are subject to regular inspection to ensure they comply with health, safety and environmental regulations. This includes regular maintenance of equipment, training of employees with regard to handling of carbon black, and regular review of emergency response to conditions associated with the use of carbon black.

Hongxing’s advanced technology and scientific means of detection have met the PRC’s environmental protection and safety requirements. Our carbon black products have been verified by the ISO9000 quality system certification, and were identified by the Industrial Technology Research Institute. Our products are fully in compliance with national standards. To meet the environmental protection and safety standards, we are monitored by the local Environmental Protection Monitoring Station. These inspections are carried out in three aspects: (i) air surveillance, using a TH0150C large air sampler and TG328B analysis libra, and measuring against the national air pollutant emission standard, (ii) noise surveillance, using a HS6288D noise analysis instrument and measuring against the national industrial enterprise factory boundary noise emission standard and (iii) water surveillance, using a series of analysis instruments such as TG328B analysis Libra and measuring against the national standard for general wastewater discharge.

We were awarded the “Orange Company Prize” by Shanxi Environment Protection Administration in 2008. The Orange Company Prize is awarded by the provincial environmental government to indicate our environment protection standards meet the required standards. The Bureau of Environmental Protection of Taiyuan classifies the local companies into five categories by different environment protection level being achieved. Among them, the red and blue awards are the top two levels, while red and black levels mean that the company has failed to meet environmental protection standards. The Orange award means the Company met all the required standards.

Competition

The world's top three transnational corporations, Cabot Corporation, Degussa AG, and Columbian Chemicals Company, account for approximately half of the world's overall capacity of carbon black. Each of these firms has production facilities in China, where production is also concentrated.

Since new participants undergo a long period of production before they are capable of satisfying large quantity orders, management believes our primary competition lies in current market participants. Currently carbon black manufactures are expanding their facilities through the use of new technologies and acquisition, new participants will find it very difficult to gain market share. The entry requirements for entering the industry have become tougher.

One of the largest barriers to entry is developing solid long-term clients. We believe we already have long-term relationships with several of our important customers, like Xuzhou Xulun Rubber Co., Ltd, Shifeng Juxing Tire Co., Ltd and Shandong Luhe Group Co., Ltd.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and notes thereto included in this report.

On December 29, 2009, Asia Carbon had, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Liteweisi, entered into Entrusted Management, Exclusive Option, Exclusive Purchase, Pledge of Equity and Shareholders’ Voting Proxy Agreements (collectively, the “Entrusted Agreements”) with Hongxing and its shareholders, Guoyun Yao and Chunde Meng (“Hongxing Shareholders”). The effect of the Entrusted Agreements is to cede control of management and economic benefits of Hongxing to Liteweisi. Asia Carbon issued 36,239,394 restricted shares of its common stock, par value $0.001, to Karen Prudente, nominee and trustee for the Hongxing Shareholders for Hongxing and the Hongxing Shareholders for the Entrusted Agreements with Liteweisi.

The Entrusted Agreements granted Asia Carbon, through Liteweisi, the ability to substantially influence Hongxing’s daily operations and financial affairs, appoint its senior executives and approve all matters requiring shareholders’ approval. As a result of these Entrusted Agreements, which obligate Asia Carbon to absorb a majority of the risk of loss from Hongxing’s activities and enable Asia Carbon to receive a majority of its expected residual returns, Asia Carbon, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, accounts for Hongxing as its Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”) under FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810-10. Accordingly, Asia Carbon consolidates Hongxing’s operating results, assets and liabilities.

For accounting purposes, the transaction was accounted for in a manner similar to a reverse merger or recapitalization, since the stockholders of Hongxing owned a majority of Asia Carbon’s common stock immediately following the transaction. Consequently, the assets and liabilities and historical operations reflected in the consolidated financial statements prior to the transaction are those of Hongxing and are recorded at the historical cost of Hongxing, and the consolidated financial statements after completion of the transaction include the assets and liabilities of Asia Carbon, Liteweisi, and Hongxing (collectively, the “Company”), historical operations of Hongxing, and operations of Asia Carbon and Liteweisi from the date of the transaction. The 36,239,394 restricted shares of common stock issued to Karen Prudente were presented as outstanding for all periods.

Asia Carbon, through its operating company in the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”), manufactures three carbon black products, N220, N330 and N660, under the brand name “Great Double Star” and other by-products. Most of the Company’s products are used by the domestic tire industry.

Table of Contents

Sales for 2011 totaled $49,122,044, an increase of $19,435,168 or 65%, compared to $29,686,876 for 2010. We sold 49,683 metric tons of carbon black and naphthalene oil, an increase of 16,478 metric tons, or 50%, compared to 33,205 metric tons in 2010. Increase in sales quantities accounted for approximately 86% of increase in sales in 2011, which was attributable mainly to our new wet production line starting production on October 26, 2010. The remaining 14% increase in sales was attributable to the increase of unit sales price which was a result of the recovery of financial crisis worldwide and recovery of the demand for our products. The average sales price of our products was $989 per metric ton during 2011, an increase of $95 per ton, or 11%, from $894 per ton during 2010.

The Company’s total carbon black production capacity was 61,000 and 35,000 tons per annum as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The production/total capacity utilization rate was 78% and 92% during 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Comparison of Cost of Sales for 2011 and 2010

Cost of sales was $37,820,109 for 2011, an increase of $13,830,158, or 58% compared to $23,989,951 in 2010. It was mainly attributable to increase in sales. The principal raw material used in our manufacture is residual heavy oils from distillation of coal tars. Production used 86,814 metric tons of coal tar oil in 2011, an increase of 26,685 tons, or 44%, compared to 60,129 tons in 2010. The increase in consumption of coal tars oil accounted for 81% of the increase in cost of sales. 11% increase in cost of sales resulted from increased coal tar oil price in 2011. The average price of coal tars was $400 per ton during 2011, an increase of $33 per ton, or 9%, from $367 per ton during 2010. The remaining 8% increase in cost of sales was due to other miscellaneous costs.

Comparison of Gross Profit Rate for 2011 and 2010

Gross profit was $11,301,935 in 2011, an increase of $5,605,010, or 98%, compared to $5,696,925 in 2010. The gross profit rate was 23% for 2011, an increase of 4 percentage points, compared to 19% for 2010. The increase in gross profit rate in 2011 was attributable mainly to commencement of production on our new wet production line and increase in sales price.

Comparison of Operating Expenses for 2011 and 2010

Operating expenses included depreciation, allowance for bad debts, selling, professional and consulting fees and other general and administrative expenses. Operating expenses were $1,207,966 in 2011, an increase of $214,723, or 22% compared to $993,243 in 2010. The increase in operating expenses was attributable to the increase of $14,469 in depreciation, $132,923 in selling expenses, $50,712 in professional and consulting fees and $91,671 in other operating expenses, offset by reduction in bad debt expense of $75,052. Among the professional fees, non-cash expenses totaled $153,665: common stock issued for investor relation services was valued at $17,750; options issued for investor relation services were valued at $77,800; options issued to chief financial officer and director were valued at $58,115.

Comparison of Net Income for 2011 and 2010

Net income was $7,311,281 in 2011, an increase of $4,037,424, or 123%, compared to $3,273,857 in 2010. Net income per share was $0.14 in 2011, and increase of $0.07, or 100%, compared to $0.07 in 2010. Increase in net income resulted from our new production capacity and improved gross margin rate.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We had cash and equivalents of $8,092,411 and $5,717,142 as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Our funds are kept in financial institutions in the PRC, which do not provide insurance for amounts on deposit. Moreover, we are subject to the regulations of the PRC which restrict the transfer of cash from the PRC, except under certain specific circumstances. Accordingly, such funds may not be readily available to us to satisfy obligations incurred outside the PRC.

Our accounts receivable has been a significant portion of our current assets, being $4,404,319 and $6,034,573 , or 28% and 46%, of current assets, as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. If customers responsible for a significant amount of accounts receivable were to become insolvent or otherwise unable to pay for our products, or to fail to make payments in a timely manner, our liquidity and results of operations could be materially adversely affected. An economic or industry downturn could materially adversely affect the servicing of these accounts receivable, which could result in longer payment cycles, increased collections costs and defaults in excess of management’s expectations. A significant deterioration in our ability to collect accounts receivable could affect our cash flow and working capital and could also impact the cost or availability of financing available to us.

Table of Contents

Our accounts receivable aging was as follows, as of December 31, 2011 and 2010:

	Total			Current			31-90 days			91-120 days			121-360 days			Over 361 days
2011		100.00	%		90.50	%		8.69	%		0.00	%		0.00	%		0.81	%
2010		100.00	%		88.00	%		11.40	%		0.00	%		0.00	%		0.60	%

We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make required payments. Allowance for doubtful accounts is based on our assessment of the collectability of specific customer accounts, the aging of accounts receivable, our history of bad debts, and the general condition of the industry. If a major customer’s credit worthiness deteriorates, or our customers’ actual defaults exceed historical experience, our estimates could change and impact our reported results. We have not experienced any significant amount of bad debt since the inception of our operations. Allowance for doubtful accounts was $84,935 and $97,640 as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $8,626,803 and $3,434,013 in 2011 and 2010, respectively. The increase in net cash provided by operating activities in 2011 was mainly due to the $4,037,424 increase in net income.

Net cash used in investing activities were $6,663,431 and $2,432,713 in 2011 and 2010, respectively. The capital expenditures of $6,663,431 in 2011 was related to the Company’s natural gas and byproducts processing projects. The Company is planning to use natural gas as fuel in the production instead of coal tars currently used. The capital expenditures of $2,432,713 for 2010 was related to the wet production line.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $310,886 and $2,254,258 in 2011 and 2010, respectively. The Company repaid short term loans of $1,376,074 and received proceeds from new short term loans of $1,376,074 in 2011. During 2011, the Company received a deposit of $49,985 from investors and issued 345,503 restricted shares of common stock to investors for $255,308. During 2010, the Company issued 9,202,874 shares of common stock to private investors and received gross proceeds of $3,038,903. Total commission paid in connection with this private placement was $804,500. During the first quarter of 2010, the Company loaned $2,615,993 to two of the Company’s significant shareholders. On June 23, 2010, the Company received repayment of $2,615,993 from aforementioned shareholders. The Company received $5,593 and $19,855 cash advance from a shareholder in 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Short term debt at December 31, 2011 and 2010 consisted of the following:

	2011		2010
To Xigu Credit Union
Interest at 11.68%, payable March 20, 2011	$	-	$	487,894
Interest at 13.25%, payable April 28, 2012		511,658		-
To Chengguan Credit Union
Interest at 11.68%, payable March 20, 2011		-		824,269
Interest at 13.25%, payable April 28, 2012		864,416		-
Total Short Term Debt	$	1,376,074	$	1,312,163

Table of Contents

The short term debts are renewable based on the past credit of the Company. Interest is paid quarterly. There are no other terms or loan covenants relating to these short term loans. On March 21, 2011, the Company repaid the $487,894 loan to Xigu Credit Union and the $824,269 loan to Chengguan Credit Union. On April 29, 2011, the Company borrowed $511,658 from Xigu Credit Union and $864,416 from Chengguan Credit Union.

Our ability to maintain sufficient liquidity depends partially on our ability to achieve anticipated levels of revenue, while continuing to control costs. If we did not have sufficient available cash, we would have to seek additional debt or equity financing through other external sources, which may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all. Failure to maintain financing arrangements on acceptable terms would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We believe our working capital, together with our cash flow from operations will be sufficient to enable us to meet our cash requirements for the next 12 months. However, we may incur additional expenses as we seek to expand our business in the future, and it is possible that we may require additional funding for that purpose. We cannot be sure that funding will be available when we require funding.

Off-balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The Company believes the accounting principles utilized by it conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”). The Company applies the following critical accounting policies related to revenue recognition in the preparation of its financial statements.

General

The Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with US GAAP, which require management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, net revenue and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Senior management has discussed the development, selection and disclosure of these estimates with the BOD. Management believes the accounting estimates employed and the resulting balances are reasonable; however, actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue from the sales of products. Sales are recognized when the following four revenue criteria are met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the selling price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. Sales revenue is presented net of value added tax (“VAT”), sales rebates and returns. No return allowance is made as product returns are insignificant based on historical experience. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition, but usually does not require collateral to support customer receivables. The credit risk is controlled through credit approvals, limits and monitoring procedures. The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends and other factors. Accounts receivable are charged against the allowance for doubtful accounts once all collection efforts have been exhausted. Freight-in costs are included in cost of sales.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and equivalents, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, short term debt, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, various taxes payable and amounts due to shareholder. The fair value of these financial instruments approximate their carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets due to their short term maturity or by comparison to other instruments with similar terms.

Table of Contents

Foreign Currency Translation

The consolidated financial statements of the Company are translated pursuant to ASC 830, “Foreign Currency Matters.” The functional currency of Hongxing and Liteweisi is the Chinese Renminbi (“RMB”). The reporting currency of the Company is the United States dollar (“US dollar”). The financial statements of Hongxing and Liteweisi are translated to US dollars using year-end exchange rates for assets and liabilities, historical rates for equities, and average exchange rates for revenues, costs and expenses. Translation adjustments are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income as a component of stockholders’ equity. Transaction gains or losses arising from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the consolidated results of operations.

Segment Information

ASC 280-10, “Disclosure About Segments of and Enterprise and Related Information”, requires entity-wide disclosures about the products and services an entity provides, the material countries in which it holds assets and reports revenues and its major customers. The Company operates in a single segment and will evaluate additional segment disclosure requirements as it expands its operations.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors

Asia Carbon Industries, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Asia Carbon Industries, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis of designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, based on our audits, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Asia Carbon Industries, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, in conformity with the U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2011 AND 2010

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Organizations

Asia Carbon Industries, Inc. (“Asia Carbon” or “Company”) was incorporated June 23, 2008 under the laws of the State of Maryland. The Company is a holding Company to develop business opportunities in the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”).

On November 10, 2008, Asia Carbon formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, Jin Zheng Li-Te-Wei-Si Carbon (Taiyuan) Inc. (“Liteweisi”) under PRC law in Taiyuan, China. Liteweisi is a management company to manage operations in China.

Taiyuan Hongxing Carbon Black Ltd. Company (“Hongxing”) was incorporated December 4, 2003 under the laws of the PRC. Hongxing is located at Qingxu County, Taiyuan, Shanxi province of China. Hongxing had two shareholders with registered capital of $384,300. Hongxing’s registered capital was $3,316,300 after one shareholder contributed $2,932,000 to Hongxing in 2008.

On December 29, 2009, Asia Carbon, through Liteweisi, entered into Entrusted Management, Exclusive Option, Exclusive Purchase, Pledge of Equity and Shareholders’ Voting Proxy Agreements (collectively, the “Entrusted Agreements”) with Hongxing and shareholders of Hongxing, Guoyun Yao and Chunde Meng (“Hongxing Shareholders”). The effect of the Entrusted Agreements was to cede control of management and economic benefits of Hongxing to Liteweisi. Asia Carbon issued 36,239,394 restricted shares of its common stock, par value $0.001, to Karen Prudente, nominee and trustee for the Hongxing Shareholders for Hongxing and the Hongxing Shareholders for the Entrusted Agreements with Liteweisi.

The Entrusted Agreements gave Asia Carbon, through Liteweisi, the ability to substantially influence Hongxing’s operations and financial affairs, appoint its senior executives and approve all matters requiring shareholders’ approval. As a result of these Entrusted Agreements, which obligate Asia Carbon to absorb a majority of the risk of loss from Hongxing’s activities and enable Asia Carbon to receive a majority of its expected residual returns, Asia Carbon, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, accounts for Hongxing as its Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”) under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810-10. Accordingly, Asia Carbon consolidates Hongxing’s operating results, assets and liabilities.

Asia Carbon, through Hongxing, manufactures three carbon black products N220, N330 and N660 under the brand name “Great Double Star” and other by-products. Most of the Company’s products are used by the China’s tire industry.

Base of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements were prepared by the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”).

Table of Contents

Basis of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Asia Carbon and its subsidiaries. All significant inter-company transactions were eliminated in consolidation.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions which affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and equivalents, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, short term debt, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, various taxes payable and amounts due to shareholder. The fair value of these financial instruments approximates their carrying amounts in the balance sheets due to their short term maturity or by comparison to other instruments with similar terms.

Foreign Currency Translation

The functional currency of Hongxing and Litweisi is the Chinese Renminbi (“RMB”). The reporting currency of the Company is the United States dollar (“US dollar”).

The assets and liabilities of Hongxing and Litweisi are translated into US dollars at period-end exchange rates. The revenues and expenses are translated into US dollars at average exchange rates of the years. Resulting translation adjustments are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income within stockholders’ equity.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost, as determined on a weighted average basis, or market. Costs of inventories include raw materials and related costs incurred in bringing the products to the Company’s location and in proper condition. Market value is determined by reference to selling prices after the balance sheet date or to management’s estimates based on prevailing market conditions. The Company writes down inventories to market value if below cost. The Company also regularly evaluates the composition of its inventories to identify slow-moving and obsolete inventories to determine if a valuation allowance is required.

Property, Plant and Equipment, Net

Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets.

Long Lived Assets

The Company evaluates potential impairment of long-lived assets, in accordance with ASC 360-10-15 “Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” which requires the Company to evaluate a long-lived asset for recoverability when there are events or circumstances that indicate the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount of a long-lived asset or asset group is not recoverable (when carrying amount exceeds the gross, undiscounted cash flows from use and disposition) and is measured as the excess of the carrying amount over the asset’s (or asset group’s) fair value.

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue from sales of products. Sales are recognized when these four revenue criteria are met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the selling price is fixed or determinable, and collectivity is reasonably assured. Sales revenue is presented net of value added tax (“VAT”), sales rebates and returns. No return allowance is made as product returns are insignificant based on historical experience. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition, but generally does not require collateral to support customer receivables. Credit risk is controlled through credit approvals, limits and monitoring procedures. The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends and other factors. Accounts receivable are charged against the allowance for doubtful accounts once all collection efforts have been exhausted. Freight in costs are included in cost of sales.

Advertising Costs

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. There were no material advertising costs for 2011 or 2010.

Research and Development

In accordance with the ASC subtopic 730-10, “Research and Development”, the Company expenses all research and development costs as incurred. There were no material research and development cost for 2011 or 2010.

Segment Information

ASC 280-10 requires disclosures about segments and related information of a public entity. The Company manufactures and sells carbon black made from tar oil. The Company and its major suppliers and customers are all located in the PRC. The Company operates in a single segment and will evaluate additional segment disclosure requirements as it expands its operations.

Statement of Cash Flows

In accordance ASC Topic 230, “Statement of Cash Flows,” cash flows from the Company’s operations are calculated based upon local currencies using average translation rates. As a result, amounts reported on the consolidated statements of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding asset and liabilities balances on the consolidated balance sheets.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method described in ASC 740-10, the objective of which is to establish deferred tax assets and liabilities for the temporary differences between the financial reporting and the tax bases of the Company’s assets and liabilities at enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when such amounts are realized or settled. A valuation allowance for deferred tax assets is recorded when it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

Reclassifications

Certain prior year amounts were reclassified to conform to the manner of presentation in the current year.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-04, “Fair Value Measurements (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs,” (“ASU 2011-04”). ASU 2011-04 expands the disclosures for fair value measurements that are estimated using significant unobservable (Level 3) inputs. This new guidance is to be applied prospectively. This guidance will be effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2012. The Company anticipates the adoption of this standard will not materially affect its consolidated financial statements.

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income,” (“ASU 2011-05”). ASU 2011-05 eliminates the option to report other comprehensive income and its components in the statement of changes in equity. ASU 2011-05 requires that all non-owner changes in stockholders’ equity be presented in either a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. This new guidance is to be applied retrospectively. This guidance will be effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2012. The Company anticipates that the adoption of this standard will not change the presentation of its consolidated financial statements.

In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-08, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment” (“ASU 2011-08”). This ASU is intended to simplify how entities test goodwill for impairment and permits an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is “more likely than not” that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test described in Topic 350. ASU 2011-08 is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. We do not expect this ASU will have an impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Certain accounting pronouncements have been issued by the FASB and other standard setting organizations which are not yet effective and therefore have not yet been adopted by the Company. The impact on the Company’s financial position and results of operations from adoption of these standards is not expected to be material.

NOTE 6 – IDLE ASSETS

To build a new wet method production line, the Company retired its fourth dry method production line, built in 2007, in July 2008. Most of the equipment and parts were in good condition and suitable to be used in the new wet method production line. The remaining net book value of the fourth dry method production line was RMB14,735,993 ($2,160,297, translated at 2008 exchange rate). In July 2008, the Company decided to stop depreciation of these assets until completion of the new production line.

On October 26, 2010, the Company completed the construction of the new wet production line. Approximately 50% of the equipment and parts of the fourth dry production line were used in the Company’s new wet method production line. The remaining equipment and parts with net book value of RMB7,391,507 ($1,119,961, translated at 2010 exchange rate) became idle assets. The Company planned to use the remainder of the equipment and parts as replacement parts for the Company’s other three dry production lines, or to sell them in the used market place. The estimated remaining useful lives for the idle assets were seven years. The Company’s policy was to depreciate the idle assets during their estimated remaining useful lives until they were reused or sold.

Depreciation of idle assets, included in the depreciation expense, was $167,787 and $156,006 for 2011 and 2010, respectively.

As of December 31, 2011, all idle assets were used in the construction of self-built natural gas and by-products processing projects. The projects were completed in December 2011. The remaining net book value of idle assets $838,936 (RMB5,279,645) was transferred and included in the cost of machinery and equipment at December 31, 2011.

NOTE 7 – LAND USE RIGHTS

On December 29, 2005, the Company lent RMB554,130 ($88,051) to Xigu Village (“Village”), which was interest free and due December 29, 2008. The Village failed to pay the loan as of December 29, 2008. Pursuant to the loan agreement, once the Village was in default, the Company had the right to use the outstanding amount as a prepayment to its future rent obligation for this 49 mu (8.07 acre) parcel of land. The lease requires a yearly payment of RMB10,000 ($1,589) through July, 2053. The Company has no obligation to pay this lease due to the default of Village loan. The balance of Village loan receivable was capitalized at December 31, 2008 as land use rights and amortized over the remaining life of land use rights lease.

On October 31, 2007, the Company lent an additional RMB1,000,000 ($158,900) to the Village. The loan was interest free and due October 31, 2010. Xigu Village failed to repay the loan as of October 31, 2010. Pursuant to the loan agreement, if the Village was unable to repay the loan when due, the Company had the right to offset the defaulted loan balance against future rent obligations of the Company’s newly leased second 49 mu (8.07 acre) parcel of land. The lease requires a yearly payment of RMB10,000 ($1,589) through June 2056. The Company has no obligation to pay this lease due to the default of Village loan. The balance of Village loan receivable was capitalized as land use rights and amortized over the remaining life of land use rights lease started on November 1, 2010.

As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, land use rights were as follows:

NOTE 10 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Country Risk

As the Company's principal operations are in the PRC, it is subject to considerations and risks not typically associated with companies in North America and Western Europe. These risks include, among others, risks associated with the political, economic and legal environments and foreign currency exchange limitations encountered in the PRC. The Company's results of operations may be adversely affected by changes in the political and social conditions in the PRC, and by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, among other things.

In addition, all of the Company's transactions in the PRC are denominated in RMB, which must be converted into other currencies before remittance from the PRC. Both conversion of RMB into foreign currencies and remittance of foreign currencies abroad require approval of the PRC government.

Lack of Insurance

The Company currently has no insurance for its office facilities and operations and cannot be certain it can cover the risks associated with such lack of insurance or that it will be able to obtain and/or maintain insurance to cover these risks at economically feasible premiums.

Corporate Finance Advisory Services Agreements

On September 8, 2008, Asia Carbon entered a Corporate Finance Advisory Services Agreement (the “Asia Carbon Advisory Agreement”) with Friedland Corporate Investor Services LLC (“Friedland LLC”). The agreement provided Friedland LLC would provide corporate finance advisory services to Asia Carbon designed to form a Wholly Owned Foreign Enterprise (“WOFE”) in China and to result in Asia Carbon’s shares becoming publicly-traded in the US. As consideration for these services, Asia Carbon agreed to pay Friedland no less than 10% of the Company shares outstanding on a fully diluted basis at the time of commencement of trading of the Company’s shares. These services were provided during 2008 and were valued at $50,000 and recorded as consulting expense.

Pursuant to the Asia Carbon Advisory Agreement, the Company issued 4,700,000 and 360,809 shares to Friedland LLC on January 25, 2010 and May 11, 2010, respectively. In addition, the Company paid $498,034 to Friedland LLC in connection with a private placement (“PP”). This amount was netted against the proceeds from the PP and reduced additional paid in capital.

2011 Stock Incentive Plan

On September 13, 2011, the BOD approved a resolution to adopt a 2011 Incentive Stock Plan (the “Plan”) which aims to support and increase the Company’s ability to attract, engage and retain individuals of exceptional talent, to provide additional incentive for persons employed by the Company, including without limitation any employee, director, general partner or officer, and to advance the best interests of the Company by providing to those persons who have a substantial responsibility for its management, affairs, and growth, a proprietary interest in the success of the Company, thereby encouraging them to maintain their relationships with the Company. The Plan will reserve and issue 5,000,000 additional shares of common stock of the Company (the “Shares”) thereunder;

NOTE 11 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

On January 25, 2010, the BOD approved a resolution to issue 74,900 shares of common stock to its sole director, Mr. Michael Segal, for his services as a director of the Company. Since there was no established market for the Company’s equity, the price of private placement was used as a market price to value the service. A fee of $24,717 was recorded during 2010.

On February 17, 2010, the BOD approved a resolution to issue 30,000 shares of common stock to Ms. Karen Prudente for her services to manage the trust of Hongxing shareholders.

NOTE 12 - CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

The Company maintains cash balances in various banks in China. Currently, no deposit insurance system has been set up in China. Therefore, the Company will bear all risk if any of these banks become insolvent. As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company’s uninsured cash balances were $8,028,999 and $5,559,314, respectively.

NOTE 13 - INCOME TAXES

The provision for income tax of $2,661,717 and $1,301,709 for 2011 and 2010, respectively, arose from foreign income tax incurred and or paid to the Chinese tax agent. The Company’s income tax was assessed at 25% of net income.

Foreign pretax earnings were $10,502,057 and $4,575,566 for 2011 and 2010, respectively. Pretax earnings of a foreign subsidiary are subject to US taxation when effectively repatriated. The Company provides income taxes on the undistributed earnings of non-US subsidiaries except to the extent such earnings are indefinitely invested outside the US. At December 31, 2011, approximately $20,044,298 of accumulated unadjusted earnings of non-US subsidiaries was indefinitely invested. At the existing US federal income tax rate, additional taxes of approximately $1,804,000 would have to be provided if such earnings were remitted currently.

The Company did not have any significant temporary differences giving rise to deferred tax liabilities as of December 31, 2011 and 2010.

Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our President, Chief Financial Officer and Secretary, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act")) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, our President, Chief Financial Officer and Secretary concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report were effective such that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure. A controls system cannot provide absolute assurance, however, that the objectives of the controls system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting .

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.

As of December 31, 2011, our management, under the supervision of and with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, began the process of evaluating the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as required by Rules 13a-15(c) and 15d-15(c) under the Exchange Act. In making this assessment, Management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO") in Internal Control – Integrated Framework , including the following five framework components: i) control environment, ii) risk assessment, iii) control activities, iv) information and communications, and v) monitoring.

Our management evaluated the design and operating effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as part of this assessment, using its knowledge and understanding of our organization, operations, and processes, to determine, in its judgment, the sources and potential likelihood of misstatements in financial reporting. Based on this assessment, our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2011.

Specifically, our management identified certain matters involving internal control and our operations that it considered to be material weaknesses. As defined in the Exchange Act, a material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the registrant's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. The material weaknesses identified by our management as of December 31, 2011, are described below:

1. We lacked sufficiently-trained personnel to provide for adequate segregation of duties within the accounting system and effective oversight of controls over access, change, data, and security management. Because this control deficiency, and the related segregation of duties constraints, is pervasive in nature and impacts all significant accounts, our management believes this deficiency rises to the level of material weakness.

2. There is an absence of expertise in the management and staff in maintaining effective internal control, due to the Company’s recent transition from a private company to a public company. Our management believes that the pervasive nature of this control deficiency impact all significant accounts and disclosures and rise to the level of material weakness.

Table of Contents

The above material weaknesses are identified based on the management’s evaluation to date. As the Company continues and completes the process of evaluation of internal controls and procedures, material weakness other than discussed above may be identified.

Plan for Remediation of Material Weaknesses

As financial conditions permit, we plan to take the following actions to improve our internal control over financial reporting, including actions to remediate those material weaknesses identified.

1.	Recruit qualified staff for internal control positions and develop a suitable internal control system to provide effective oversight of our internal control over financial reporting.
2.	Step by step to establish a suitable internal control system within the Company in accordance with the SOX compliance requirements. We may look for outside help, including engage the service of qualified consultant with Chinese GAAP, US GAAP and SEC reporting experiences.
3.	Continuing on job trainings to all accounting staffs and other related staffs

Our management will continue to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures, as well as its internal control over financial reporting, on an ongoing basis, and is committed to taking further action and implementing additional improvements, as necessary and as funds allow. However, our management cannot guarantee that the measures taken or any future measures will remediate the material weaknesses identified or that any additional material weaknesses or significant deficiencies will not arise in the future due to a failure to implement and maintain adequate internal control.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010. In making this assessment, our management used the Committee of COSO framework, an integrated framework for the evaluation of internal controls issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation, our management concluded that, as of December 31, 2010, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective. As an initial step, the Company is modifying and reassigning job responsibilities currently.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit the company to provide only management's report in this annual report.

Changes. During the most recent quarter ended December 31, 2011, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Audit Committee Financial Expert

Our BOD currently acts as our audit committee and is still in the process of finding an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in Regulation S-K and directors that are “independent” as that term is used in Section 10A of the Exchange Act.

Audit Committee

We have not yet appointed an audit committee. At the present time, we believe that the members of BOD are collectively capable of analyzing and evaluating our financial statements and understanding internal controls and procedures for financial reporting. We do, however, recognize the importance of good corporate governance and intend to appoint an audit committee comprised entirely of independent directors, including at least one financial expert, in the near future.

Compensation Committee

We do not presently have a compensation committee. Our BOD currently acts as our compensation committee.

Nominating Committee

We do not presently have a nominating committee. Our BOD currently acts as our nominating committee.

Table of Contents

Board Leadership Structure

Guo Yun Yao is our chairwoman and chief executive officer. At the advice of other members of the management or the Board, Ms. Yao calls meetings of BOD when necessary. We have one independent director, and we do not have a lead independent director. The Board believes that the Company's chief executive officer is best situated to serve as chairman of the Board because she is the director most familiar with our business and industry and the director most capable of identifying strategic priorities and executing our business strategy. In addition, having a single leader eliminates the potential for confusion and provides clear leadership for the Company. We believe that this leadership structure has served the Company well.

The Board’s Role in Risk Oversight

Risk is an integral part of the Board's deliberations throughout the year. The BOD oversees and reviews an assessment prepared by management of the critical risks facing the Company, their relative magnitude and management’s actions to mitigate these risks.

Code of Ethics

We have not yet adopted a corporate code of ethics. The Company’s BOD is considering establishing a code of ethics to deter wrongdoing and promote honest and ethical conduct; provide full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in public reports; comply with applicable laws; ensure prompt internal reporting of code violations; and provide accountability for adherence to the code.

Board Meetings

The BOD met one time and acted by unanimous written consent four times during 2011.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

As of March 21, 2012, we are not subject to Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence

Related parties can include any of our directors or executive officers, certain of our stockholders and their immediate family members. A conflict of interest occurs when an individual’s private interest interferes, or appears to interfere, in any way with the interests of the Company as a whole.

In evaluating related party transactions and potential conflicts of interest, our BOD applies the same standards of good faith and fiduciary duty they apply to their general responsibilities. They will approve a related party transaction only when, in their good faith judgment, the transaction is in the best interest of the Company.

As our former President, Chief Executive Officer and Secretary until May 20, 2010, and our director from the Company’s incorporation on June 23, 2008, Michael Segal is a promoter of the Company as that term is defined in the rules and regulations promulgated under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934. Upon the approval of management, based on the compensation principle of rewarding performance and retaining well-qualified directors, Mr. Segal received 100 shares of our common stock, par value $0.001, on June 26, 2008 in consideration of past services provided by Mr. Segal to the Company. At the time of this issuance, Mr. Segal served as a member of our BOD. The estimated service value was $200 per hour. The Company valued this equity-based payment upon the services received since there is no established market for the Company’s equity. The estimated service value is $200 per hour. The Company valued the 100 shares issued to Mr. Segal at $400, which was equal to two hour services received.

Similarly, on January 25, 2010, upon the approval of the BOD based on the compensation principle of rewarding performance and retaining well-qualified directors, we issued 74,900 shares of our common stock, par value $0.001, to our then sole-director, Michael Segal. We issued these shares in consideration for his service as a director of the Company. Since there is no established market for the Company’s equity, the price of private placement was used as a market price to value the service fee at $24,717.

As previously described under “Description of Business - Corporate History,” our BOD has the right to appoint the board of directors of Hongxing and its officers and directors. The transactions described under “Description of Business-Corporate History” involve officers and directors of Liteweisi and Hongxing. To understand these relationships and these transactions, you should review the discussion under “Description of Business - Corporate History.”
