CHINA GREEN MATERIAL TECHNOLOGIES INC. 
By HARBIN, China, May 16, 2011 /PRNewswire-Asia/ -- China Green Material Technologies, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: CAGM; "CAGM" or "the Company"), a Chinese leader in developing and manufacturing starch-based biodegradable, disposable containers, tableware and packaging materials, today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2011.
First Quarter 2011:
Revenues - First quarter revenues increased 61.4% to $4.5 million from $2.8 million in the first quarter of 2010. The increased revenues reflect strong reorders from existing customers and expansion in the supermarket sector as well as railway bureaus. The Company increased average selling prices by approximately 6.0% in the first quarter of 2011 and gained a 52.5% increase in tonnage sold as compared to the corresponding period in 2010. In the first quarter of 2011, 40.7% of sales were from customized product orders and 99% of sales were to customers in the PRC. In the first quarter of 2010, only 24.4% of sales were from customized product orders.
Mr. Su Zhonghao, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, declared, "We experienced further acceleration in our revenue growth which increased from 49.5% for the year ended December 31, 2010 to 61.4% in the first quarter of 2011. This strong momentum reflects growing demand from new and existing customers in China, particularly for the product categories of disposable cups, food containers and plates. As we continue to introduce new branded products, which are stronger and less expensive than those from our competitors, while expanding our distribution capabilities to make our products available to more Chinese consumers, we are poised to capture additional market share in the rapidly growing RMB2.5 billion biodegradable products market in China."

Gross Profit - Gross profit in the first quarter of 2011 increased 43.2% to $1.7 million compared to $1.2 million in the first quarter of last year, while gross margin was 37.3% versus 42.1% a year ago. The decrease in the gross margin percentage was largely due to increases in overall production costs by 14.7%, which were mainly caused by higher raw material prices, amortization expenses of intangible assets and depreciation expenses.
Operating Expense - Operating expenses in the first quarter of 2011 totaled $0.5 million, or 11.2% of sales versus $0.3 million, or 10.2% of sales in the first quarter of 2010. Selling expenses were constant at $0.05 million period-over-period, while general and administrative expenses increased to $0.5 million in compared to $0.2 million in 2010. The increase in operating expenses included a $0.04 million increase in stock compensation expenses and Zhonghao Biodegradable Materials Co., Ltd start up costs of $0.14 million for the period ended March 31, 2011.
Operating Income - 2011 first quarter income from operations increased 32.2% to $1.2 million from $0.9 million in the comparative period. Operating margin was 26.1% in the 2011 period versus 31.8% a year ago.
Other Income (Expense) - Other expenses were $0.03 million in the first quarter of 2011 versus a $0.4 million expense in the first quarter of 2010.
Net Income - Net income in the first quarter of 2011 was $0.9 million compared to $0.4 million in the first quarter of 2010. Adjusted net income (non-GAAP) was $1.1 million, an increase of 46.2% versus a year ago adjusted net income (non-GAAP) of $0.8 million. Net income per diluted share was $0.04 in the first quarter of 2011 versus net income per diluted share of $0.02 in the first quarter of 2010 based on weighted average shares of 25.7 million and 22.4 million, respectively. The increase in share count reflects the issuance of 6.9 million common shares in two private placements completed in the first and second quarters of 2010.
The Company's effective tax rate was 19.4% in the first quarter of 2011 versus 17.7% for the same period in 2010.
"We are focused on expanding our capacity to meet the robust demand for our products. During the first quarter of 2011, our new state-of-the-art facility which is located in the Harbin Economic and Technological Development Zone has commenced production. The new facility allows us to operate more efficiently and will provide the ability to fill larger orders from our growing base of domestic and international customers. All in all, I am extremely excited about the future growth outlook for China Green Materials," concluded Mr. Su.
Liquidity and Capital Resources:
As of March 31, 2011, the Company had $13.9 million in cash and cash equivalents, an increase of approximately $1.8 million from the end of 2010, primarily due to net cash inflow from operating activities of $2.4 million in the first quarter of 2011, offset by $0.8 million of equipment and property investments for the new manufacturing facility. The Company made progress on improving its accounts receivable turnover, with Days Sales Outstanding decreasing from 187 days in the first quarter of 2010 to 171 days in the first quarter of 2011, based on annualized quarterly revenue.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains non-GAAP financial measures which Company management uses for financial and operational decision making, and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors because they exclude start-up costs for our new subsidiary company, a loss on the disposal of fixed assets and a loss on long-term investments that our management excludes when it internally evaluates the performance of the Company's business and makes operating decisions, including internal budgeting, and performance measurement, because these measures provide a consistent method of comparison to historical periods. Moreover, management believes these non-GAAP measures reflect the essential operating activities of CAGM. Accordingly, management excludes these losses when making operational decisions. The Company believes that providing the non-GAAP measures that management uses to its investors is useful to investors for a number of reasons. The non-GAAP measures provide a consistent basis for investors to understand the Company's financial performance in comparison to historical periods. In addition, it allows investors to evaluate the Company's performance using the same methodology and information as that used by our management. Non-GAAP measures are subject to inherent limitations because they do not include all of the expenses included under GAAP and because they involve the exercise of judgment of which charges are excluded from the non-GAAP financial measure. However, our management compensates for these limitations by providing the relevant disclosure of the items excluded.
The following table provides a reconciliation of non-GAAP earnings to the equivalent GAAP measure.
