Mr. Xianfu Han, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of China ACM said, " the past couple of fiscal years had been hard for us. We had experienced the widest downturn of revenues and earnings in the Company's history. While the downturn in the real estate market and macro-economy affects every one in the concrete industry, we didn't give up. In the past couple of years, we had searched and worked very hard to find viable solution on not only how to rebuild our financial performance but also on how to better protect and sustain it in an adverse market.

For that purpose, we are transforming our core business, through which we produce and deliver concrete products to our clients, from a traditionally volume-based model to a technology-centered model. We are focusing on inventing and developing a set of new technologies that can enhance the industry's sustainability. We will use such technologies to produce new generation of concrete products that can bring better profit margins and are more eco-friendly from using recyclable construction wastes as the alternative source of raw material to reduce the expensive consumption of traditional raw materials."

Mr. Han continued, "With that, we will rebuild shareholder value through focusing on technology and product innovation, prudent revenue growth, establishing the long-term durability of our core business, sustained net profits and balance sheet discipline. Our performance in 2014 was noteworthy also due to the improved collection of account receivables and the subsequent reduction of losses."

"As we exit our recently concluded fiscal year, we look forward to a year with new technologies, new products, more clients, and new business. Again, we will focus on using efficient large-scale method to manufacture the next generation of eco-friendly, high quality concrete products from recyclable construction wastes at low cost. In addition to improve our product's profitability, the reuse of construction waste in our production will reduce the massive pollution from abandoned construction waste and contribute to lower the carbon dioxide emissions from the reduced consumption of traditional cement raw materials."

"As we had achieved early benchmarks in transforming our business model, in the brand new fiscal year, we are very confident that we are much better positioned than our competitors to take the leadership role of product and technological innovation in the global concrete industry," Mr. Han concluded.

Fiscal Year 2014 Results

Revenue. For the year ended June 30, 2014, we generated total revenue of approximately $48.7 million compared to approximately $74.5 million during the year ended June 30, 2013, a decrease of approximately $25.8 million or 34.6% . The majority of such decrease is related to the reduction of sales in the Company's business segment of concrete sales for the year ended June 30, 2014. Our concrete sales revenue was approximately $47.5 million for the year ended June 30, 2014, a decrease of approximately $21.8 million, or 31.5% compared to the year ended June 30, 2013. The decrease in revenues attributable to concrete sales was principally due to the decreased sales in the areas in which we operate. After the suspension due to the China International Garden Expo and a temporary suspension order imposed by the Beijing government for industrial activities in the area, operations at one of our concrete producing plants recommenced in the first calendar quarter of 2014, but had yet to achieve full capacity. Furthermore, China's central government imposed restrictions on residential property investments in order to regulate housing prices in China. The restriction had caused an adverse impact on the property development industry, amid the overall slowed economic growth in China.

During the year ended June 30, 2014, in the business segment of concrete manufacturing services, we continued to supply concrete products to three railway projects throughout China from our portable plants, specifically, for the railway projects in Anhui Province. These three projects contributed approximately $1.2 million to our total revenue for the year ended June 30, 2014, a decrease of approximately $4.0 million, or 76.4%, compared to the year ended June 30, 2013. The decrease in revenues attributable to our manufacturing services was principally due to the suspension of operations on a number of portable plants during the year ended June 30, 2014.

Cost of Revenue. For the year ended June 30, 2014 total cost of revenue was approximately $44.1 million compared to approximately $60.8 million during the year ended June 30, 2013, a decrease of approximately $16.7 million or 27.5% . The decrease in cost of revenue was primarily due to the overall decrease in production from our fixed concrete plants in the Beijing area and decreased production on manufacturing services compared to the year ended June 30, 2013.

The cost of revenue on concrete sales decreased by approximately $13.5 million, or 23.9%, for the year ended June 30, 2014, as compared to the year ended June 30, 2013. Such decrease was due to a decrease in our concrete production volume.

Cost of revenue with respect to our manufacturing services was primarily due to our manufacturing services, which decreased by approximately $3.2 million, or 72.0%, during the year ended June 30, 2014, as compared to the same period last year.

Gross Profit (Loss). Total gross profit was approximately $4.6 million for the year ended June 30, 2014, as compared to approximately $13.7 million for the year ended June 30, 2013.

Our gross profit for sale of concrete was approximately $4.7 million, or 9.8% of revenue, for the year ended June 30, 2014, compared to approximately $13.0 million, or 18.8% of revenue for the year ended June 30, 2013, a decrease of approximately $8.4 million. The lower gross profit for concrete sales for the year ended June 30, 2014, compared with the year ended June 30, 2013, was primarily due to lowered production volume while we were subject to similar level of fixed costs.

Our gross loss with respect to our manufacturing services was approximately $0.04 million for the year ended June 30, 2014, a decrease of $0.66 million from $0.7 million during the year ended June 30, 2013. Such decrease was principally due to the decrease in revenue from manufacturing services for the year ended June 30, 2014, as a result of the decrease in the number of portable plants and lower production rates at our plants.

Provision for doubtful accounts. We incurred provision for doubtful accounts of $7.7 million for the year ended June 30, 2014, a decrease of $7.5 million, as compared to $15.2 million for the year ended June 30, 2013. The allowance for doubtful accounts decreased to approximately $31.7 million at June 30, 2014, as compared to approximately $36.5 million at June 30, 2013, mainly attributable to a $10.9 million write-off of bad debts against allowance balances, offset by additional provision in current year.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. We incurred selling, general and administrative expenses of approximately $10.7 million for the year ended June 30, 2014, a decrease of approximately $1.9 million, or 14.8%, as compared to approximately $12.5 million for the year ended June 30, 2013. The decrease was principally due to a $0.6 million decrease in advertising expense, a $0.4 million decrease in labor service expense, a $0.2 million decrease in automobile expenses and a $0.2 million decrease in meals and entertainment expense.

Research and development expenses. Research and development expenses for the year ended June 30, 2014 were $1.5 million, a decrease of approximately $0.7 million, or 31.9%, as compared to approximately $2.2 million for the year ended June 30, 2013. The Company's R&D expenditure was maintained at a certain percentage of revenue, plus any discretionary spending on projects that would help improve our competitive advantage.

Loss realized from disposal of property, plant and equipment. For the year ended June 30, 2014, we incurred $1.7 million loss realized from disposal of property, plant and equipment.

Impairment of long-lived assets. We incurred a $0.3 million impairment charge related to the carrying values of certain property, plant and equipment of our manufacturing service business segment that exceeded the estimated future cash flow from disposition of these assets.

Net loss. We recognized a net loss of approximately $16.6 million for the year ended June 30, 2014, as compared to net loss of approximately $23.6 million for the year ended June 30, 2013, a decrease of $7.0 million in net loss. Such a decrease in net loss was the result of the combination of the changes as discussed above.

First Quarter and Full Year Guidance of Fiscal Year 2015

Amid the ongoing rapid changes in the construction material market, the Company was compelled to advance our competence in the concrete industry. While our traditional sales slowed in the last couple of years, we were striving to transform our core business, through which we produce and deliver concrete products to developers, from a traditionally volume-based model to a technology-centered model. In the new model, our core business will center at using efficient large-scale method to manufacture the next generation of eco-friendly, high quality concrete products from recyclable construction wastes at low cost. To build the new model, we are researching new product formulas, developing new manufacturing methods, designing new industry standards, chartering corporate-academia co-ops, and chairing industry-wide consortium with several dozens of companies and universities throughout the nation. This new model will use new eco-friendly, high quality concrete products to enhance the operational effectiveness of our existing businesses, earn new business, and thus improve our product's profitability. These works is an integral part of our mission to become the industry leader of inventing new concrete products and technological innovation and hence take leadership role in the sustainability of economy growth.
