"We achieved double-digit growth in revenues in the second quarter of fiscal year 2008 due in large part to our focus on launching new fertilizer products and through growth in sales from our extended distribution networks. The agricultural industry in China is experiencing significant expansion which has resulted in a dramatic increase in demand for Grade AA green fertilizers like those produced by our Company," said Mr. Tao Li , Chairman and CEO of China Green Agriculture. "We are particularly pleased that we were able to maintain our gross margins for the most recent quarter which reached 57%," he added.

Second Quarter of 2008 Results

Net revenues for the second quarter of fiscal 2008 totaled $3.8 million, up 80.5% from $2.1 million in the same quarter of fiscal year 2007. The increase in revenues was primarily due to increase in sales volume due to expansion of the Company's sales network, the launch of new products and the addition of the Company's newly acquired greenhouse facility which contributed approximately $1,012,578 of sales over the same period.

Gross profit for the second quarter of fiscal year 2008 totaled $2.1 million, an increase of 81.2% from $1.2 million in the same quarter of 2006. Gross profit margin was 56.8% for the second quarter of fiscal year 2008, remaining relatively unchanged from 56.6% a year earlier.

Operating expenses for the second quarter of 2008 were $1.3 million, up from $0.2 million in the same quarter of 2006. This significant increase was primarily due to higher general and administrative expenses associated with becoming a public company. Selling expenses also increased in support of the Company's growth. Operating expenses were 35.8% of net revenues in the second quarter of fiscal year 2008, up from 10.7% of net revenues in the corresponding quarter of fiscal year 2007.

Operating income for the second quarter of fiscal year 2008 was $0.8 million, down from $1.0 million in the second quarter of fiscal year 2007. Operating margin was 21.1%, compared to 45.9% in the same quarter of 2007.
