The increased sales volume was attributable to the following factors: (i) benefit from government policies that have supported substantial public spending on oil and gas pipeline infrastructure, (ii) we have an established corporate name and reputation that are widely recognized by customers in the steel pipe industry. The consistent good quality strengthened our reputation for SSAW pipes, and we also maintained favorable relationships with old customers. Therefore, more sales resulted during the year ended April 30, 2011 compared with the same period last year, and (iii) increased sales to PRC-based state-owned enterprises in need of high-end SSAW pipes with a larger diameter, which are used in the transmission of natural gas.
Cost of Goods Sold
Our cost of goods sold is primarily comprised of the cost of raw materials, such as hot-rolled steel strip, labor costs, and manufacturing overhead. Specifically, the cost of raw materials represented approximately 86% and 87% of our total costs of goods sold in fiscal years 2011 and 2010.
Our total cost of goods sold increased by 34%, or approximately $41.3 million, to approximately $164.4 million for the fiscal 2011 from approximately $123.1 million for the fiscal 2010.
For the year ended April 30, 2011, our cost of goods sold relating to the PRC markets increased by approximately $48.3 million, or 46%, to approximately $154.2 million, compared with approximately $105.9 million for the comparable period in 2010. The increase was attributable to the following: (i) along with the increase in sales volume, our cost of direct materials increased, (ii) the labor costs increased since more steel pipe was produced by employees to meet the demand for our products sold, and (iii) we started to purchase some raw materials through two trading companies instead of buying raw materials from manufacturing companies directly. In this way, we negotiated higher purchase prices but we were granted longer payment terms with these suppliers which led to the increase in the cost of raw materials for the year ended April 30, 2011. The increase was mainly derived from the approximately $37.9 million or 39% increase of the cost of goods sold for SSAW pipe in the PRC markets.
Our cost of goods sold from export markets decreased by approximately $7.0 million, or 41%, to approximately $10.2 million for the fiscal 2011 from approximately $17.2 million for the fiscal 2010. This decrease was mainly because that we reduced the production and sales volume in overseas markets and focused on our domestic markets, as discussed above.

Our general and administrative expenses increased by 24%, or approximately $0.7 million, to approximately $3.7 million for the year ended April 30, 2011 from approximately $3.0 million for the year ended April 30, 2010, which increase was due to the following factors:
·
|
Payroll expenses increased by approximately $0.15 million, or 18%, compared with 2010, as a result of the increased average salary for administrative employees;
|
·
|
Depreciation and amortization increased by approximately $0.19 million, or 57% compared with 2010, due primarily to the increase in office equipment and motor vehicles
|
·
|
Financial consulting fees increased by approximately $0.17 million, or 57% compare with 2010, as a result of increased valuation fee and supervision fee of fixed assets which is pledged as collateral to seek and obtain additional debt financing from bank, and
|
·
|
Retirement benefit expenses increased by approximately $0.26 million, or 284% compared with 2010, as a result of the increased basic salary and its base ratio for employees,
|
Interest Expense
Our financing costs consist of interest for short-term loans, product and other financing arrangement, bank acceptance notes and other borrowings and miscellaneous bank charges.
Interest expense increased by 43%, or approximately $4.1 million, to approximately $13.9 million for the year ended April 30, 2011 from approximately $9.8 million for the year ended April 30, 2010.
This increase was primarily due to increases in interest for short-term bank loans and discount interest for bank acceptance notes. The increased interest for bank loans resulted from increased average bank loans during the year ended April 30 2011, as well as increased average interest rates on our short-term bank loans. The People's Bank of China increased the benchmark of the interest rates for short-term loans from 6.5% for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2009 to 6.95% for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2011. Our lenders increased our interest rates accordingly. The increased discount interest was primarily due to the increasing discount bank acceptance notes to purchase raw materials and to repay the product and other financing arrangements, as well as the increased average discount interest rate in the fiscal 2011.
Other Income, Net
Other income of $1,905,154 for the year ended April 30, 2011, compared to other income of $36,313 for the year ended April 30, 2010. This resulted primarily i) from the government subsidies of $112,293; ii) income from a forfeited long-aged customer deposit of $1,079,919. The deposit was aged over three years and the customer refused to implement the contracts. The amount was forfeited in line with the contract terms, iii) compensation of $292,280 from a logistic Company who breached a contract during the fiscal 2011, and iv) compensation of $327,633 from a related party- Tianlong. Shanxi Guolian Spiral Tubulation Co., Ltd, a subsidiary of the Company, rented a factory plant from Tianlong. The compensation was paid to the Company by Tianlong for early termination of the rental contract before the end of the contract date.
Net Income
As a result of the foregoing, our net income increased by 24%, or $1,581,189, to $8,157,555 for the year ended April 30, 2010 from $6,576,366 for the year ended April 30, 2010, which was mainly attributable to the business expansion and increased sales in the PRC markets.
