The designation of Jinjiang Hengda Ceramics Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of the Company, as one of China’s 500 Most Valuable Brands by the World Brand Laboratory and the naming of the Company as a preferential provider of building materials for affordable housing by the China Building Materials Circulation Association during the second quarter are further testimony to the continued prominence of our name brand in China. ”

Second Quarter 2011 Results

Revenue for the second quarter ended June 30, 2011 was RMB 372.3 million (US$ 57.3 million), up 36.7% from RMB 272.3 million (US$ 39.8 million) for the second quarter ended June 30, 2010. The year-over-year increase in revenue was primarily driven by a 29.2% increase in the sales volume of ceramic tiles to 13.7 million square meters in the second quarter of 2011 from 10.6 million square meters in the second quarter of 2010. We were able to increase our volume due to increased production capacity at both the Jinjiang Plant (“Hengda”) and the Gaoan Plant (“Hengdali”), both of which operated at full capacity during the quarter. Hengda also raised the selling price of its porcelain tile by 5% in February 2011, which led to RMB 7.8 million (US$ 1.2 million) of the increase in revenue.

Gross profit for the second quarter ended June 30, 2011 was RMB 113.4 million (US$ 17.5 million), up 33.7% from RMB 84.8 million (US$ 12.4 million) for the second quarter ended June 30, 2010. The year-over-year increase in gross profit was mostly driven by the higher sales volume in the most recent quarter. Gross profit margin was 30.5% compared to 31.1% for the same period in 2010, and the slight decrease of gross profit margin was due to the effect of increased material cost and labor cost.

Selling and distribution expenses were RMB 3.1 million (US$ 0.5 million), or 0.8% of sales, compared to RMB 1.5 million (US$ 0.2 million), or 0.6% of sales, in the second quarter of 2010. The year-over-year increase in selling expenses was primarily due to increased travel expenses of RMB 0.4 million (US$ 0.07 million) and advertising expenses of RMB 0.7 million (US$ 0.1 million) for promotion of our products.

Administrative expenses for the second quarter ended June 30, 2011 were RMB 9.6 million (US$ 1.5 million), up 60.0% from RMB 6.0 million (US$ 0.9 million) in the second quarter of 2010. The year-over-year increase in administrative expenses was primarily due to RMB 2.4 million (US$ 0.4 million) of non-cash share-based compensation expenses related to the 2010 Incentive Compensation Plan, which was designed to retain directors and senior management. It is expected that additional non-cash share-based compensation expenses of approximately RMB 11.9 million (US$ 1.8 million) will be incurred from July 2011 to January 2014.

Profit before taxation for the second quarter ended June 30, 2011 was RMB 97.9 million (US$ 15.1 million), up 28.6% from RMB 76.1 million (US$ 11.1 million) in the second quarter of 2010. The year-over-year increase in profit from operations was the result of higher revenue although offset by higher selling and administrative expenses.

Net profit for the second quarter ended June 30, 2011 was RMB 72.4 million (US$ 11.1 million), up 28.1% from RMB 56.5 million (US$ 8.3 million) in the same period of 2010. The year-over-year increase in net profit was the result of higher revenue, but offset by higher selling and administrative expenses.

Earnings per fully diluted share were RMB 3.97 (US$ 0.61) for the second quarter ended June 30, 2011, down 28.5% from RMB 5.55 (US$ 0.81) over the same period in 2010. Earnings per fully diluted share in the second quarter of 2011 were computed using 18.3 million shares while net earnings per fully diluted share in the second quarter of 2010 were computed using 10.2 million shares.

Non-GAAP profit before taxation, whichexcludes share-based compensation expenses, was RMB 100.3 million (US$ 15.4 million) in the second quarter ended June 30, 2011, up 31.8% from RMB 76.1 million (US$ 11.1 million) in 2010 (for which period there was no non-GAAP adjustment).

Non-GAAP net profit, which excludes share-based compensation expenses, was RMB 74.8 million (US$ 11.5 million) in the second quarter ended June 30, 2011, an increase of 32.4% from RMB 56.5 million (US$ 8.3 million) in the second quarter of 2010 (for which period there was no non-GAAP adjustment).

Non-GAAP earnings per fully diluted share, which excludes share-based compensation expenses, was RMB 4.10 (US$ 0.63)in the second quarter ended June 30, 2011, down 26.1% from RMB 5.55 (US$ 0.81) in the same period of 2010 (for which period there was no non-GAAP adjustment).

Second Quarter 2011 Statements of Selected Financial Position Items

§   Cash and bank balances were RMB 51.6 million (US$ 8.0 million) as of June 30, 2011, compared with RMB 263.5 million (US$ 39.9 million) as of December 31, 2010. The decrease in cash and bank balances was attributed to the purchase of new kilns and production lines to replace older manufacturing equipment at Hengda as well as the continuation of its Phase II construction at Hengdali during the first half year of 2011.

§   Inventory turnover was 83 days as of June 30, 2011 compared with 73 days as of December 31, 2010. The increase in inventory turnover was because the Company increased its inventory to meet the backlog of orders expected to be shipped in the third quarter of 2011, which is usually the peak season of the year. Also, since the prices of raw materials have been increasing, the Company has stored up raw materials for production in the second half of 2011.

§   Trade receivables turnover was 95 days as of June 30, 2011 compared with 95 days as of December 31, 2010. The Company’s trade receivables include a 17% value-added-tax (“VAT”), whereas reported revenue is net of VAT. Trade receivables turnover excluding VAT amounts was 81 days as of June 30, 2011 compared with 81 days as of December 31, 2010. The trade receivables turnover was flat with the quarter ended December 31, 2010, due to the tight management control over trade receivables collection.

§   Trade payables turnover was 81 days as of June 30, 2011 compared with 76 days as of December 31, 2010. The increase in the trade payables turnover resulted from an increase in the purchase of raw materials in preparation for the second half of 2011.

§   Bank borrowings (including both short-term borrowings and long-term borrowings) were RMB 137.0 million (US$ 21.2 million) as of June 30, 2011 compared to RMB 97.0 million (US$ 14.7 million) as of December 31, 2010. The increase in the bank borrowing was to support the working capital and provide a better cash cushion for the capital expenditures requirement.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash flow generated from operating activities was RMB 2.1 million (US$ 0.3 million) for the quarter ended June 30, 2011, compared to RMB 32.4 million (US$ 4.7 million) of cash flow generated from operating activities in the same period in 2010. The year-over-year decrease of RMB 30.3 million (US$ 4.4 million) was mainly due to the increase in inventory purchases and the change in the Company’s method of settling sales rebates with its distributors. Since the prices of raw materials have been increasing, the Company has stored up raw materials for production in the second half of 2011, resulting in an additional cash outflow of RMB 9.2 million (US$ 1.4 million) in the second quarter of 2011. Furthermore, the cash from operations was reduced due to a change in settling rebates to its distributors. The Company now issues rebates at time of sale. Historically, the Company had issued rebates at time of collection of accounts receivable. This change of deducting the sales rebates directly from the accounts receivable as opposed to collecting the full amount and later remitting the sales rebates, caused a decrease in cash flow of approximately RMB 23.1 million (US$ 3.6 million) in the second quarter of 2011 compared to the same quarter in 2010.

3

Cash flow used in investing activities in the quarter ended June 30, 2011 was RMB 75.3 million (US$ 11.7 million), compared to RMB 104.2 million (US$ 15.2 million) of cash flow used in investing activities in the same period of 2010. The decrease was mainly due to a decrease in the acquisition of property, plant and equipment. The capital expenditures related to Hengdali facility was nil for the quarter ended June 30, 2011, as compared to RMB 73.3 million (US$ 10.7 million) in the same period of 2010 due to expenditures for facility expansion. The company had paid RMB 129.1 million ($19.6 million) related to the Hengdali facility in the first quarter of 2011, and the final payment will be made upon completion of the facility.

Cash flow generated from financing activities was RMB 40.0 million (US$ 6.1 million) obtained from bank borrowings for the quarter ended June 30, 2011, as compared to RMB 7.9 million (US$ 1.2 million) in the same period of 2010.

Recent Developments

During the quarter, the Company’s subsidiary, Jinjiang Hengda Ceramics Co., Ltd., was designated one of China’s 500 Most Valuable Brands by the World Brand Laboratory.

Business Outlook

The Company’s backlog of orders for delivery in the third quarter of 2011 is approximately RMB 400.2 million (US$ 61.9 million), representing a year-over-year growth rate of 36.1% compared to the third quarter of 2010. The Company estimates that its sales volume of ceramic tiles in the third quarter of 2011 will be approximately 14.6 million square meters.

Plant Expansion and Capital Expenditures Update

For the second quarter ended June 30, 2011, total capital expenditures for the Company were approximately RMB 80.2 million (US$ 12.4 million), which related to the Hengda facility. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, total capital expenditures for the Company were approximately RMB 244.5 million (US$ 37.4 million). Of this amount, approximately RMB 129.1 million (US$ 19.6 million) related to the Hengdali facility and RMB 115.4 million (US$ 17.8 million) related to Hengda facility. Total capital expenditures for the fiscal year 2011 are planned to be an estimated RMB 370 million (US$ 57 million).

After the completion of the improvements at Hengda and the completion of Phase II at Hengdali by the end of 2011, China Ceramics expects to have a total annual production capacity of approximately 72 million square meters. This is expected to be composed of 42 million square meters of total capacity from the Hengda facility and 30 million square meters of total capacity from the Hengdali facility. The current total capacity is 32 million square meters from Hengda and 10 million square meters from Hengdali.

The Company believes that its current cash balances, combined with its expected future cash flow from operations and its borrowing capacity will be sufficient to meet the remaining capital expenditure requirements of the production capacity expansion associated with the Hengda and Hengdali facilities.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to China Ceramics’ condensed consolidation financial results under International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"), the Company also provides Non-IFRS financial measures (referred to as Non-GAAP financial measures) for the second quarter of 2011, including Non-GAAP profit before taxation, Non-GAAP net income and Non-GAAP earnings per fully diluted shares, all excluding the share-based compensation expenses from their comparable GAAP measure. The Company believes that these Non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with another method for assessing China Ceramics’ operating results in a manner that is focused on the performance of its ongoing operations and excludes share-based compensation expenses incurred for the stock option program. Readers are cautioned not to view Non-GAAP results on a stand-alone basis or as a substitute for results under GAAP, or as being comparable to results reported or forecasted by other companies, and should refer to the reconciliation of GAAP results with Non-GAAP results below. The Company believes that both management and investors benefit from referring to these Non-GAAP financial measures in assessing the performance of China Ceramics and when planning and forecasting future periods. The accompanying tables have more details on the GAAP financial measures that are most directly comparable to Non-GAAP financial measures and the related reconciliation between these financial measures.
