Tianli Agritech’s Second Quarter Revenue Up 88%

To $5.4 Million; Net Income Up 146% to $2.1 Million;

EPS Reaches $0.26

Company Cites Rapidly Growing Hog Sales and Improving Margins

Wuhan City, China – August 11, 2010 – Tianli Agritech, Inc. (Nasdaq: OINK), a leading hog producing company headquartered in Wuhan, China, announced today its financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010.

Second Quarter Financial Highlights:

• Revenue for the second quarter increased 88% to $5.4 million, up from $2.9 million recorded in the second quarter of 2009

• Average price per hog was up 25% for the quarter, assisted by a greater proportion of sales coming from breeder hogs

• Gross profit increased 152% to $2.4 million as the gross profit margin rose to 44% from 33%

• Net income in the second quarter rose nearly 150% to $2.1 million, compared to $0.9 million in the second quarter of 2009

• Earnings per share in the second quarter of 2010 was $0.26 compared to $0.11 per share in the second quarter of 2009

Tianli’s CEO Ms. Hanying Li said, “The second quarter of 2010 was an exciting period for Tianli Agritech. We achieved excellent sales levels of both breeder hogs and meat hogs. Revenues attributable to breeder hogs increased by approximately 370%, while meat hog revenue rose 31% with a total of 25,815 hogs sold in the quarter. Significantly more hogs were sold in the quarter because we have expanded the capacity of the company’s existing farms. Another major factor is our success in maintaining high standards of health as a result of the use of our proprietary premix feed. We have increased revenues by having more hogs available for sale without incurring higher costs of medical care.

“Our net income grew even more quickly than our revenues. This reflects a higher growth rate for sales of breeder hogs, which have better margins than meat hogs and increased prices for all hogs as compared to last year. Our efficient control and management of production and administrative expenses also contributed to the strong profit improvement.”

Six Months Financial Highlights:

• Revenue for the six months ending June 30, 2010 was $9.9 million, up 65% compared to the first half of 2009

• Revenue from breeder hog sales increased 249% to $3.6 million

• Revenue from meat hog sales increased 27% to $6.3 million

• Average sales price per hog was up 8.3%

• Gross profit more than doubled to $4.2 million

• Gross profit margin increased to 43% from 35%

• Net income for the six months was up 83% to $3.8 million or $0.47 per share compared to $2.1 million and $0.25 per share for the first six months of 2009

Ms. Li continued, “We completed our IPO in late July enabling us to take further steps to build Tianli into one of China’s largest hog and pork producers. We expect to use the $10.6 million of net proceeds from the IPO to further expand our capacity by acquiring additional hog farms and purchasing more breeding stock to respond to the strong demand for hogs in China. In the meantime, we anticipate that our ninth farm, acquired in May, will lift our total annual capacity from the current level of 110,000 hogs to 130,000 by the end of 2010. Based on the results of the first half of 2010 and our expectations for the second half of 2010, we are reaffirming our guidance for the full year 2010 of $7.5 million of net income.”
