PART I








ITEM 1.  BUSINESS





Overview





Longwei Petroleum Investment Holding Limited (the “Company”) is an energy company engaged in the wholesale distribution of finished petroleum products in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”).  The Company’s oil and gas operations consist of transporting, storage and selling finished petroleum products, entirely in the PRC.  The Company purchases diesel, gasoline, fuel oil and solvents (the “Products”) from various petroleum refineries in the PRC. The Company’s headquarters are located in Taiyuan City, Shanxi Province (“Taiyuan”). The Company has a storage capacity for its Products of 120,000 metric tons located at its
fuel depot storage facilities in Taiyuan and in Gujiao, Shanxi (“Gujiao”), 50,000 metric tons and 70,000 metric tons of capacity respectively at each location. The Gujiao facility was acquired in January of 2009 and commenced operations in November of 2009. The Company is 1 of 3 licensed intermediaries in Taiyuan and the sole licensed intermediary in Gujiao that operates its own large scale storage tanks. The Company has the necessary licenses to operate and sell Products not only in Shanxi but throughout the entire PRC.  The Company seeks to earn profits by selling its Products at competitive prices with timely delivery to coal mining operations, power supply customers, large-scale gas stations and small, independent gas stations. The Company also earns revenue under an agency fee by acting as a purchasing agent for other intermediaries in Shanxi, and through
limited sales of diesel and gasoline at two retail gas stations, each located at the Company’s facilities. The sales price and the cost basis of the Company’s products are largely dependent on regulations and price control measures instituted and controlled by the PRC government as well as the price of crude oil. The price of crude oil is subject to fluctuation due to a variety of factors, all of which are beyond the Company’s control.





The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Colorado on March 17, 2000 as Tabatha II, Inc.  On October 12, 2007, the Company changed its name to Longwei Petroleum Investment Holding Limited.





For the year ended June 30, 2011, we reported revenues of $481.6 million, an increase of 40.3% from revenues of $343.2 million reported for the year ended June 30, 2010.  We continue to expand our customer base and distribution platform.





A summary of our operating results and select balance sheet data for the years ended June 30, 2011 through 2007 are as follows:

Customers





The Company sells its products directly to commercial, industrial, retail and wholesale customers throughout Shanxi Province in the PRC from its two fuel depot storage facilities.  We normally enter into supply contracts with our customers and require customers to purchase a minimum amount of specified petroleum products at market price during each period of the contract.  The contract’s pricing typically resets every 30 days.  Payments are due upon receipt of the products unless the customer has been pre-approved for payment terms.  Approximately 75% of our customers are cash-payment only upon delivery, and certain large customers are preapproved for payment terms of
up to 90 days. Customers may take delivery of their purchases at our fuel depots or pay us to deliver to their location.





For each of the last three fiscal years we have derived 100% of our revenues within the PRC.  Our long-lived assets are also 100% domiciled within the PRC.  Since 100% of the Company’s operations are carried out within the PRC, our financial condition and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic and legal environment within the PRC, as well as by the general state of the PRC economy.  In addition, the Company’s business may be influenced by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, regulations on foreign exchange control regarding exchange transactions, and rates and methods of taxation,
among other things.





The strong, sustained economic growth in the PRC recently surpassed Japan as the world’s second largest economy in terms of GDP. The PRC is also the world’s second largest consumer of petroleum products behind the United States, according to www.platts.com. In a report released in November 2010 by the US Energy Information Administration (“EIA”), China’s oil consumption will continue to rise in 2011 and 2012, with oil demand expected to reach 9.6 million barrels per day in 2011 and almost doubling to 17 million barrels per day by 2035.  Also in a recent report from the
International Energy Agency the PRC was named the top global energy consumer.

Our industrial customers are primarily coal mining operations and power generation plants, which use diesel, gasoline, fuel oil and solvents. Industrial customers accounted for approximately 50% and 55% of our product revenues for the years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.  Industrial customers remain our largest customer category primarily because of our Gujiao facility, which is strategically located in an industrial region.  Industrial customers are also our primary source of agency fee revenues because of the large quantity of product required for their operations.





Large-scale gas stations accounted for approximately 34% and 35% of our product revenues for the years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.  Our third largest group of customers consists of small, independent gas stations (less than 10 locations). These small, independent operators are a growing segment of the market and increased as a percentage of product revenues to approximately 16% from 10% for the year ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Gas station customers primarily buy diesel and gasoline to support their retail network of gas stations to fuel the growing demand of new automobiles on the roads in the PRC.  These customers depend on our timely delivery and customer
service compared to the larger state-owned petroleum distributors.





The Company has approximately forty major customers.  No customer accounted for more than 10% of our total revenues or accounts receivable for the years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010.  For 2011 and 2010, our five largest customers represented approximately 7% and 16% of our total revenues, respectively.  Our single largest customer in 2011 and 2010 accounted for approximately 2% and 4% of our total revenues, respectively.





Products





We purchase diesel, gasoline, fuel oil and solvents from various petroleum refineries in the PRC.  We have historically sold large quantities of diesel and gasoline products and have a large and expanding supply chain in place. We do not generally modify the products prior to sale. However, in some scenarios the Company will further blend or modify our products upon the request of our customers.

* Agency fee revenues consist of fees, similar to a sales commission, charged to intermediaries who lack the required licenses to purchase directly from refineries, as well as the volume purchasing capability of the Company. Agency fee revenues are recognized when there is evidence of an arrangement that specifies pricing and irrevocable receipt of product and collection has occurred. Cost of agency fee service revenues may consists of selling commission, transportation or other costs, if any, associated with the agency fee arrangement.  For years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, the Company stopped transporting or handling the products associated with the agency sales and only acted
in a broker capacity allowing other intermediaries to use its licenses to take possession of the products.  The Company considers any costs associated with Agency fee revenues immaterial and has not allocated any costs to Agency fees for the years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Shanxi Market


The Company’s operations are concentrated in the central PRC, primarily Shanxi Province. Shanxi is the leading coal producing region in the PRC. The region is mountainous and has no oil reserves, pipelines or refineries within the province.  Therefore petroleum products have to be brought in from outside of the province via rail or truck, either from refineries in the neighboring provinces or from the relatively more numerous refineries in the coastal provinces of the northeast PRC. Consequently, it requires wholesale distributors to commit significant resources to transportation, logistics and storage.  The province is dependent on the timely delivery of petroleum products to support its
growing industrial and consumer base.  Taiyuan and the outlying area have a population of approximately 5 million people and it is the capital of Shanxi Province.   Shanxi Province has a population of approximately 34 million and it surrounded by large populated provinces, including Beijing, which represent a total population base of greater than 300 million people.  Taiyuan is approximately 500 km southwest of Beijing.  The Shanxi GDP has been growing at a CAGR of 17.1% over the 2005 – 2010 period, well above the PRC average of approximately 11.2% during the same period, according to the National Bureau of Statistics.



Coal production in the PRC is estimated by the United States Department of Energy (“US DOE”) to double its capacity by 2030.  The Shanxi provincial government has embarked on a program to consolidate its coal mining and support operations.  The Company believes this is advantageous to the growth of its business model.


Competitive Advantage




Although barriers to entry in our industry are high due to stringent licensing requirements and the need for significant storage capacity, we face competition from both state-owned and non-state-owned companies based in Shanxi Province and elsewhere that engage in the wholesale distribution of finished petroleum products. In addition to state-owned petroleum enterprises such as China Petroleum & Chemical Corporation, also known as “SINOPEC” and PetroChina Company Limited, there are currently 15 non-state-owned enterprises (including the Company) in Shanxi Province licensed to distribute finished oil products. Many of these non-state owned enterprises may have exclusive supply and purchase
arrangements with suppliers as a result of long-term relationships.





We believe we have the following advantages over our competitors:






●
Mature operational infrastructure. During the past 16 years, we have built up our operational infrastructure, including extensive distribution channels, two petroleum storage depots and convenient access to strategic railway lines.●
Stringent Licensing Requirements. All PRC enterprises engaging in the transportation, storage and wholesaling of petroleum products are required to obtain certain permits and licenses.  The permits and licenses are subject to periodic renewal and reassessment by the relevant government agencies. We also have the required permits and licenses to conduct our storage and wholesale distribution business, which are becoming increasingly difficult for new entrants to our industry to obtain due to the provincial government’s emphasis on consolidation and larger storage capacity by participants.●
Established customer relationships. We have been in the wholesale finished oil business for over 16 years operating in the same region on a direct sales relationship with our customers.  We focus on customer satisfaction and believe that we have consistently provided high quality products and services to our customers.  The key competitive advantages we offer to our customers is proximity for timely delivery and flexible customer service to meet their product volume demands.  We cannot offer significant discounts to our customers as the price of our products is primarily predetermined by market price and subject to regulatory retail price
caps.  However, customers who purchase large quantities of Products may be given priority of supply in case of shortages.●
Stable supply sources. We have good, long-term relationships with our refinery suppliers, some of which are private enterprises and some are large state-owned enterprises.  We also maintain significant advances on account with suppliers to ensure our own timely delivery and preferential pricing based on market movements.●
Railway access. We benefit from our dedicated rail spurs that connect our storage depots to the main railway line to create efficient inflow and outflow of products.  Our rail spur loading facilities can process up to 8 tanker railcars at one time.  Our ERP system automatically measures all flow through our system and maintains our inventory accounting system.●
Storage capacity. We have a total fuel depot storage capacity of 120,000 metric tons (approximately 43 million gallons of gasoline).  Aside from large upfront capital requirements, new entrants to this industry must also have significant storage capacity to be able to compete, which is a barrier to entry for new competitors.

Storage Capacity





The Company’s Products vary by product density; therefore the capacity will vary depending on the inventory product mix.  Below is a calculation based on the maximum capacity of each product individually as though it was the only product stored in inventory at our two existing facilities.





(1)      Total Diesel Capacity –  37 million gallons (diesel density = 0.85kg/L)


(a)      1,000kg x 1L/0.85kg = 1,176 L/mt


(b)      1 US gallon = 3.7854 L


(c)      1,176 L / 3.7854 = 310 gallons/mt


(d)      120,000mt x 310 gallons = 37 million gallons diesel





(2)      Total Gasoline Capacity – 43 million gallons (gasoline density = 0.74kg/L)


(a)      1,000kg x 1L/0.74kg = 1,351 L/mt


(b)      1 US gallon = 3.7854 L


(c)      1,351 L / 3.7854 = 357 gallons/mt


(d)      120,000mt x 357 gallons = 43 million gallons gasoline





(3)      Fuel Oil Capacity – 35 million gallons (fuel oil density = 0.90kg/L)


(a)      1,000kg x 1L/0.90kg = 1,111 L/mt


(b)      1 US gallon = 3.7854 L


(c)      1,111 L / 3.7854 = 294 gallons/mt


(d)      120,000mt x 294 gallons = 35 million gallons fuel oil





(4)      Solvent Capacity – mixture varies between gasoline and diesel, but assumes similar density to diesel





(5)
Based on the additional capacity from the proposed acquisition of 100,000mt, on a pro forma basis the Company would have 220,000mt (or the equivalent of 73 million gallons of petroleum) total capacity based on the current inventory allocation.





Below are the product levels of inventory for the years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.  The product levels are listed in metric tons, US gallon equivalents and $USD value:

The Company’s storage capacity allows management to adjust inventory levels based on the anticipated movement of industry pricing and acts as a hedge on pricing levels.  Utilizing our excess storage capacity allows us flexibility to take advantage of pricing, supply and demand fluctuations within the marketplace.  Shanxi Province has no pipelines or refineries in the province.  All petroleum products are imported to Shanxi from other provinces within the PRC, typically via rail tanker cars.  The Company’s supplier advance balance with refineries allows us to lock-in availability of supply, and in certain instances pricing, so that we can react quickly to
purchases based on the timing of the PRC pricing levels adjustments.





The Company’s inventory turnover for the years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 was approximately 41 days and 32 days respectively.  The Company is continually working to optimize its inventory turnover, which expands sales capacity based on increased inventory movement.  In times of anticipated rising prices the Company tries to lock-in pricing and increase inventory on-hand prior to the PRC pricing mechanism adjusting the set retail price upwards.





The retail prices of gasoline and diesel, or finished oil sold in the PRC, are subject to the government guiding ceiling price.  In order to link domestic oil prices more closely to changes in the global crude oil prices in a controlled manner, the Administrative Measures on Oil Prices promulgated by the National Development and Reform Commission (“NDRC”) in the PRC on May 7, 2009 stipulates that the NDRC will adjust domestic finished oil prices when the international market price for crude oil changes more than 4.0% over 22 consecutive business days.  The NDRC adjusts domestic finished oil prices by modifying the retail price for gasoline and diesel in all provinces, which has an
upstream pricing effect over the wholesale of finished oil products.  Detail of the price adjustments during the years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 are as follows:

USD equivalent price per metric ton is based on the exchange rate at the effective date of the retail price adjustment or year end.  Over the past fiscal year ended June 30, 2011 there have been four price increases representing approximately 17% price increase in retail prices.  Over the past two fiscal years, 2011 – 2010, there have been a total of nine price increases and two price decreases representing approximately 34% price increase in retail prices over the twenty-four month period.  This approximates to the price increase of 44% in global crude oil prices during this same twenty-four month period.





Based on the metric ton retail price of gasoline at year-end June 30, 2011, the consumer price at the pump was approximately $1.03/liter (or $3.91/gallon) for gasoline and $1.14/liter (or $4.30/gallon) for diesel.





Based on the metric ton retail price of gasoline at year-end June 30, 2010, the consumer price at the pump was approximately $0.83/liter (or $3.13/gallon) for gasoline and $0.90/liter (or $3.41/gallon) for diesel.





The above retail price control increase and decrease reflects the fluctuations in global crude oil prices.  As a result, the weighted average price of our products for the years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 were $1,019/mt and $841/mt, respectively.





Operating Licenses





The Company holds two distinct licenses for the wholesale distribution of petroleum products in the PRC.  The Certificate for Wholesale Distribution of Finished Oil (the “FO License”) is a license granted by the PRC central government.  The FO License allows us to sell our products to wholesale customers and other users of gasoline, diesel and solvents.  The FO License must be renewed every 5 years.  Our most recent renewal process extends our license from April 13, 2011 through April 13, 2016.  We hold this license at the discretion of the PRC government.  We also hold a Dangerous Chemical Distribution License (the “DCD License”)
that allows us and our personnel to handle and transport gasoline and diesel oil. The DCD License must be renewed every 3 years. We are currently in the renewal process and the new license will extend until 2014.  The Constitution of the PRC states that all mineral and oil resources belong to the State.  Therefore, without these licenses, we would not be able to transport and sell our products.




9




In addition to business licenses issued by the Municipal Administration for Industry and Commerce, our two retail gas stations hold a renewable Operating License for Hazardous Chemicals and a renewable Operating License for Retail Sale of Finished Oil that allows us to sell at retail gasoline, diesel and solvents. Both licenses are subject to annual inspections - the Hazardous Chemical License by the provincial Administration of Work Safety and the Retail License by the provincial Department of Commerce - and failure to pass the annual inspection may lead to their revocations.





Suppliers





The Company purchases diesel, gasoline, fuel oil, solvents, kerosene and other additives directly from a limited number of refineries located mostly in the eastern and northwestern regions of the PRC.  The primary products purchased are gasoline, #90 and #93 grades, and diesel #10.  The Company has long-term, established relationships with these suppliers.  The Company’s advances to suppliers account represent cash paid in advance for purchases of inventory from suppliers.  The Company locks in availability and pricing with suppliers in advance by using the Company’s cash resources.  The Company expects to maintain supplier advances in the future to ensure that
the Company has access to adequate supplies and timely shipments to act as a hedge based on the movement of industry pricing. The deposits are held by the Company’s refinery suppliers to ensure that the delivery of inventory to the Company is made in a timely manner. The Company attempts to maintain a significant balance on account with the refineries with the expectation of receiving preferential pricing and delivery.  The Company does not foresee any potential loss with regard to these advances as a result of the suppliers being large enterprises that have significant controls placed upon them by PRC regulation.  The Company has not had to make any historical adjustments to these accounts for any deficiencies or negative impact related to the Company’s suppliers.





Below is a list of suppliers that represented more than 10% of our purchases in years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010:

China’s top two refiners are Sinopec and PetroChina, which supply the majority of gasoline, diesel and other petroleum products in the PRC.  Independent refineries, also known as teapot refineries, collectively account for approximately 1.8 million barrels/day of production capacity (or approximately 20% of China’s total refining capacity).  Longwei’s suppliers are considered to be some of the largest of these refiners, which are typically state-owned refineries outside of the Sinopec/PetroChina supply hierarchy.  While we are dependent on these suppliers for our finished petroleum products, we are always seeking to expand our supply sources and believe that we can
find alternative suppliers with comparable terms within a reasonable amount of time without any significant disruption in our operations.  Since inception, we have not experienced any difficulty in obtaining refined products in a timely manner.





Supplier Risks





The Company depends on suppliers, namely refineries, for inventory. The cost of inventory may fluctuate substantially and it is possible that our demand for inventory could not be met due to short supply, may be available from only one or a limited number of suppliers, or may only be available from foreign suppliers. Increased costs or difficulties in obtaining inventory in the requisite quantities, or at all, could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations. The credit crisis and rapidly escalating raw material costs across a variety of industries created additional risks for our supplier base. In the year ending June 30, 2012, the Company’s suppliers could face financial difficulties as a
result of the global economic downturn. We actively monitor our suppliers' financial condition, and to date we have no knowledge of significant concerns with the financial stability of any of our major suppliers.





We are dependent upon the ability of refinery suppliers to meet product specifications, standards and delivery schedules at anticipated costs. While we maintain a qualification and performance surveillance system to control risk associated with this reliance on third parties, the failure of suppliers to meet commitments could adversely affect delivery schedules and profitability, while jeopardizing our ability to fulfill commitments to customers.




10




Research and Development





The Company expenses the cost of research and development as incurred.  Research and development costs for the years ended June 30, 2011 and  2010 were not significant.





Intellectual Property





The Company currently does not own any intellectual properties.  We do however hold two primary licenses: (1) Wholesale Distribution of Finished Oil License, and (2) Dangerous Chemical Distribution License.  These two licenses were initially obtained when we began operations in 1995.  These licenses do not appear on our balance sheets within the consolidated financial statements.  However, the FO License has a renewable 5 year term and the DCD License has a renewable 3 year term.  We consider these licenses to be extremely valuable and believe our operations would be severely impacted if these licenses were not adequately maintained.





Industry





The strong, sustained economic growth in the PRC recently surpassed Japan as the world’s second largest economy in terms of GDP. A recent report by the International Energy Agency named the PRC as the top global energy consumer, and according to www.platts.com, the PRC is the second largest oil consumer in the world.





Our operations are in Shanxi, which is a center of industrial operations and energy supply within the PRC.  We believe our Taiyuan facility is well positioned to continue revenue growth.  The Gujiao facility is located within a dense industrial geography and is expected to continue to generate strong revenue growth during its first year of operations and going forward.  The two facilities have a combined storage capacity of 120,000mt.  We are under an agreement to purchase a third facility in northern Shanxi Province, which will expand our storage capacity to 220,000mt.





According to BMI, China’s oil consumption will grow to 11.5 million barrels per day (b/d) by 2015 and 13.3 million b/d by 2020.  Production is projected to remain relatively flat with most of the increase demand met through imports.  The same report says the refinery capacity in the PRC is expected to continue to grow from 8.6 million b/d in 2009 to 10.1 million b/d in 2015 and 11.5 million b/d in 2020.





We believe there are two key market trends according to the Institute for the Analysis of Global Security that allow for substantial growth in the PRC over the next three to five years:





1.
Energy demand. Oil consumption in the PRC is growing at an annual rate of 7.5%.  The PRC is now the top global energy consumer and growing.  Over 20% of the PRC’s energy demand is satisfied by oil.  We are located in a province without pipelines or refineries that requires significant transportation logistics and storage, which can be facilitated by the Company.2.
Automobile ownership.  Automobiles in the PRC are expected to grow at an annual rate of 19%, and the PRC is now the largest new automobile market in the world.  From 1990 – 2010, 90 times more automobiles are on the road in the PRC, and by 2030 the PRC is expected to have as many automobiles on the road as the US.  The Company has good supplier relationships with many of the major gasoline retailers in Shanxi.





Business Strategy





Internal Growth





The Company seeks organic growth by growing with our existing customer base and expanding our sales using our direct sales force and customer referrals.  We continue to seek expansion of our customer base within Shanxi Province, and are focused on the development of our customer base at the Gujiao Facility.  We also seek to continue to improve our inventory turnover.





Geographic Growth





The Company will continue to seek out additional facilities with the intention of acquiring facilities in the future that are accretive to earnings with a short payback period on investment. Future potential acquisitions will be contemplated by our management with the knowledge and understanding we have gained from operations and business development work completed at both the Taiyuan and Gujiao facilities.  In general, we intend to review potential acquisitions of facilities that we believe will generate profits over the initial 3 year term for us that equals or exceeds the total purchase price of a new facility.  We are currently under a letter of intent to acquire the assets of Huajie
Petroleum.  The proposed assets will increase our storage capacity an additional 100,000mt.  The Company has paid a deposit the assets of RMB 550 million (approximately $85.1 million) through cash on hand.  The total purchase price is RMB 700 million (approximately $108.3 million).  The Huajie Petroleum assets are located in an industrial and mining region, approximately 200 kilometers to the north of our Taiyuan facility.

Government Regulations





Finished Oil Distribution





Prior to 2006, significant gaps existed in the laws and regulations pertaining to the finished oil industry, and the relevant rules for this industry were, to some extent, inconsistent and subject to the discretion of the relevant government authorities.





In 2006, greater specificity was added to the rules for commercial activities in the finished oil industry with the enactment of the Measures on the Administration of the Finished Oil Market (promulgated on December 4, 2006 by the PRC Ministry of Commerce (“MOFCOM”) and effective as of January 1, 2007, (the “Measures”). This regulation provides comprehensive details on the finished oil wholesale and resale application procedures, qualification requirements, and rules for annual inspections. Enterprises (foreign or domestic-funded) meeting certain requirements can submit applications to the MOFCOM for a certificate of
approval to conduct gasoline and diesel (including bio-diesel) wholesale, retail and storage businesses.





The first step required in applying to engage in the wholesale of finished oil is a preliminary examination by the provincial MOFCOM where the enterprise is located. Thereafter, the provincial MOFCOM will forward the application materials together with its opinions on the preliminary examination to the MOFCOM, which will then decide on whether to grant the Certificate of Approval for the Wholesale of Finished Oil.





An enterprise applying to engage in the finished oil wholesale business must, among other requirements, possess the following:





(i)
long-term and stable supply of finished oil;





(ii)
a legal entity with a registered capital of no less than RMB 30 million;





(iii)
a finished oil depot, which shall have a capacity not smaller than 10,000 m 3 (cubic meters), conforming to the local urban and rural planning requirements, and be approved by other relevant administrative departments (1 cubic meter is the equivalent of 1 metric ton of water at 4° Celsius); and





(iv)
Facilities for unloading finished oil such as conduit pipes, special railway lines, and transportation vehicles with a capacity of 10,000 metric tons or more to transport refined oil via rail, on the highway or over water to ports.




The application procedure for the retail of finished oil is similar to that for wholesale except that the preliminary examination takes place at the administrative department for commerce at the municipal level, and the certificate of approval is issued at the provincial level.





An enterprise applying to engage in the finished oil retail business must, among other requirements, possess the following:





(i)
long-term and stable channels to finished oil supply and a supply agreement with an enterprise that has been qualified to engage in the wholesale business of finished oil for a period of three years or more in line with its business scale;





(ii)
qualified professional and technical personnel to handle inspections, metrology, storage and fire safety and the safe production of finished oil; and





(iii)
gas stations designed and built to comply with the relevant national standards and approved by the relevant administrative department.





Enterprises possessing certificates of approval are subject to annual inspection by the relevant provincial MOFCOM which will review:





(i)
the execution and performance of finished oil supply agreements;





(ii)
the operation results of the enterprise for the previous year;





(iii)
whether the enterprise and its supporting facilities are in compliance with the technical requirements under the Measures; and





(iv)
The current measures, among other measures, being taken by the enterprise regarding quality control, metrology, fire safety, security and environmental protection.





12




If we pass the annual inspection, the certificates of approval we hold will continue to be valid. An enterprise failing an annual inspection will be ordered to rectify all deficiencies within a certain time limit by the MOFCOM and/or its provincial branches. If such deficiencies have not been rectified within the specified time limit, its certificates of approval shall be revoked by the original issuing authority.





We currently are in full compliance with the Measures,and hold valid operating licenses to conduct our businesses. However, we cannot provide assurance that we will not fail to satisfy the above mentioned requirements in the future.





Pricing for Finished Oil





The PRC National Development and Reform Commission (“NDRC”) regulates domestic oil prices as part of its macro-management over the economy in order to control dramatic fluctuations in oil prices.





The Administrative Measures on Oil Prices ( trial implementation ), or the Price Measures, promulgated by the NDRC on May 7, 2009 stipulates that the NDRC will adjust domestic finished oil prices when the international market price for crude oil changes more than 4% over 22 consecutive working days. By contrast, crude oil prices are determined solely by enterprises engaging in this industry.





The NDRC adjusts domestic finished oil prices by modifying the retail price cap for gasoline and diesel in all provinces, autonomous regions, and directly administered municipalities. Thereafter, the administrative authorities at the provincial level adjust the wholesale price caps from the corresponding retail price caps. Where there are no specific contractual arrangements for a supplier’s delivery to a retailer, the wholesale price caps may be further deducted to take into account the retailer’s transportation cost among other expenses.





The Price Measuresstipulate that the domestic finished oil prices shall be calculated according to the normal profit rate for refiners when the crude oil price on the international market is lower than $80 per barrel. When the international crude oil market price exceeds $130 per barrel, the NDRC will adopt certain fiscal and tax policies to ensure the continuing production and supply of refined oil products. Further, gasoline and diesel prices will only be increased slightly (if at all) in consideration of manufacturers and consumers, as well as the stability of the national economy.





The exact formula for calculating finished oil prices domestically has not been published. However, the NDRC has stated that such formula is based on the weighted average of the international market prices, together with the average domestic processing costs, taxes, fees incurred in distribution channels, and suitable profits for refiners. Moreover, the NDRC adjusts the cost index seasonally in accordance with the actual situation with respect to prices.





Environmental Protection





The relevant PRC governmental authorities set national and local environmental protection standards, as well as examine and issue approvals on environmental aspects of different stages of various projects. We are required to file an environmental impact statement, or in some cases, an environmental impact assessment outline, to obtain such approvals. The filing must demonstrate that the project in question conforms to applicable environmental standards. Generally speaking, environmental protection bureaus will issue approvals and permits for projects using modern pollution control measurement technology.





The PRC national and local environmental laws and regulations impose fees for the discharge of waste substances above prescribed levels, require the payment of fines for serious violations and provide that the PRC national and local governments may, at their own discretion, close or suspend any facility which fails to comply with orders requiring it to cease or improve operations causing environmental damage.





In accordance with the requirements of the environmental protection laws of the PRC, we have installed the necessary environmental protection equipment, adopted advanced environmental protection technologies, established responsibility systems for environmental protection, and reported to and registered with the relevant local environmental protection department.





Dangerous Chemicals





PRC laws and regulations on dangerous chemicals require that a Dangerous Chemical Distribution License, or the DCD License, be obtained for all companies that handle and transport dangerous chemicals.





Foreign-invested Enterprises Engaging in Oil-related Businesses





Under the Catalogue of Industries for Guiding Foreign Investment, jointly promulgated by the MOFCOM and the NDRC on October 31, 2007 and effective as of December 1, 2007, each of the following falls within the restricted category for foreign investment: wholesale of oil products, the construction and operation of gas stations, and the production of liquid bio-fuels (i.e., fuel ethanol, biodiesel). Foreign investors can only engage in commercial activities involving liquid bio-fuels or retail distribution of finished oil (where the foreign investor possesses 30 or more gas stations or where it
sells different brands of oil through different distributors) through a joint venture with a Chinese partner, and the Chinese partner must hold a controlling interest in the joint venture. As a result of these restrictions, all of our business operations are conducted by a domestic entity, Taiyuan Longwei Economy & Trading Co., Ltd.





13





Corporate Structure





The Company began operations in July 1995 in the PRC.  We were incorporated under the laws of the State of Colorado on March 17, 2000 as Tabatha II, Inc.  On October 12, 2007, we changed our name to Longwei Petroleum Investment Holding Limited. On October 16, 2007, we entered into a Share Exchange Agreement and agreed to issue 69,000,000 shares of our common stock in exchange for 100% of the outstanding ownership units of Longwei Petroleum Investment Holding Limited (Longwei BVI), a British Virgin Islands entity.  This transaction was accounted for as a reverse acquisition. Longwei Petroleum Investment Holding Limited, formerly known as Tabatha II, Inc., did not have any operations
and majority-voting control was transferred to the previous owners of Longwei BVI.  The transaction required a recapitalization of Longwei BVI. Since Longwei BVI acquired a controlling voting interest, it was deemed the accounting acquirer, while Longwei Petroleum Investment Holding Limited (formerly Tabatha II, Inc.) was deemed the legal acquirer.





Inflation





Inflationary factors such as increases in the cost of our Product and overhead costs may adversely affect our operating results. Although we do not believe that inflation has had a material impact on our financial position or results of operations to date, a high rate of inflation in the future may have an adverse effect on our ability to maintain current levels of gross margin and selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net revenues if the selling prices of our products do not increase with these increased costs.





Foreign Currency Translation Adjustment





Our operating subsidiaries purchase all products and render services in the PRC, and receive payment from customers in the PRC using RMB as the functional currency.  All of our customers and suppliers are located in the PRC. While our reporting currency is the U.S. Dollar, all of our consolidated revenues and the majority of consolidated operating costs and expenses are denominated in RMB. Substantially all of our assets and liabilities are denominated in RMB. As a result, we are exposed to foreign exchange risk as our revenues and results of operations may be affected by fluctuations in the exchange rate between U.S. Dollars and RMB. We have not entered into any hedging transactions in an effort to reduce
our exposure to foreign exchange risk.





We incurred a foreign currency translation adjustment increase of $12,983,503 for the year ended June 30, 2011, as compared with the foreign currency translation adjustment increase of $2,300,232 for the year ended June 30, 2010.   On July 21, 2005, China reformed its foreign currency exchange policy, revalued the RMB by 2.1 percent and allowed the RMB to appreciate as much as 0.3 percent per day against the U.S. dollar. We implemented exchange rates in translating RMB into U.S. dollars in our financial statements for years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.  Assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates at the balance sheet dates and revenue and expenses are translated at
the average exchange rates for the periods presented and shareholders’ equity is translated at historical exchange rates. Any translation adjustments resulting are not included in determining net income but are included in foreign currency translation adjustment to other comprehensive income, a component of stockholders’ equity.  If the RMB appreciates against the U.S. dollar, revenue and expenses would be higher than they would have been if there were no fluctuations in the currencies.  Conversely, if the RMB depreciates against the U.S. dollar, revenue and expenses would be lower than they would have been if there were no fluctuations in the currencies.





Taxation, Fees and Royalties





Companies which operate petroleum and petrochemical businesses in China are subject to a variety of taxes, fees and royalties.  Starting from January 1, 2008, the general enterprise income tax rate imposed on entities, other than certain enterprises defined in the new Enterprise Income Tax Law of the PRC, shall be 25%.





Seasonality





Our business is relatively stable and predictable and is not subject to changes in seasonality.





Employees





We currently have 77 full-time employees, including our managers and officers. We do not have any part-time employees.  We expect that additional sales and material handling personnel will be required as the business expands.  Our employees are interviewed and hired by our human resource department. We believe that our relationship with our employees is good.  Management expects that our access to reasonably priced and competent labor will continue into the foreseeable future.  Our employees are not represented by any union.





14





Environmental Matters





We believe that we are in compliance with present environmental protection requirements in all material respects. Our distribution processes generate noise, waste water, gaseous wastes, petrochemical wastes, and other industrial wastes. We have installed various types of anti-pollution equipment in our facilities to reduce, treat, and where feasible, recycle the wastes generated in our business. Our operations are subject to regulation and periodic monitoring by local environmental protection authorities.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS





RISK FACTORS





You should carefully consider the risks described below together with all of the other information included in this report before making an investment decision with regard to the Company’s securities. The statements contained in or incorporated into this annual report that are not historic facts are forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in or implied by forward looking statements. If any of the following risks actually occurs, the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations could be harmed. In that case, the trading price of the Company’s common stock
could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.





Risks Related to Business Operations





We may be unable to manage our growth.





We are planning for rapid growth and intend to aggressively expand operations. The growth in the size and geographic range of our business will place significant demands on management and our operating systems. Our ability to manage growth effectively will depend on our ability to attract additional management personnel; to develop and improve operating systems; to hire, train, and manage an employee base; and to maintain adequate service capacity. Additionally, the proposed expansion of operations may require hiring additional management personnel to oversee procurement duties. We will also be required to rapidly expand operating systems and processes in order to support the projected increase in product demand.
There can be no assurance that we will be able to effectively manage growth and build the infrastructure necessary to achieve growth as management has forecasted.




The strategy of acquiring complementary businesses and assets may fail which could reduce our ability to compete for customers.





As part of our business strategy, we have pursued, and intend to continue to pursue, selective strategic acquisitions of businesses, assets and technologies that complement our existing business. We intend to make other acquisitions in the future if suitable opportunities arise. Acquisitions involve uncertainties and risks, including:





●
potential ongoing financial obligations and unforeseen or hidden liabilities;●
failure to achieve the intended objectives, benefits or revenue-enhancing opportunities;●
costs and difficulties of integrating acquired businesses and managing a larger business; and●
diversion of resources and management attention.





The failure to address these risks successfully may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Any such acquisition may require a significant amount of capital investment, which would decrease the amount of cash available for working capital or capital expenditures. In addition, if we use our equity securities to pay for acquisitions, we may dilute the value of your shares. If we borrow funds to finance acquisitions, such debt instruments may contain restrictive covenants that could, among other things, restrict us from distributing dividends. Such acquisitions may also generate significant amortization expense related to intangible assets.





15




We depend on our key executives, and our business and growth may be severely disrupted if we lose their services.





Our future success depends substantially on the continued services of our key executives. In particular, we are highly dependent upon Mr. Cai Yongjun, our chairman and chief executive officer, who has established relationships within the industries we operate. If we lose the services of one or more of our current management, we may not be able to replace them readily, if at all, with suitable or qualified candidates, and may incur additional expenses to recruit and retain new officers with industry experience similar to our current officers, which could severely disrupt our business and growth. In addition, if any of our executives joins a competitor or forms a competing company, we may lose some of our suppliers
or customers. Furthermore, as we expect to continue to expand our operations and develop new products, we will need to continue attracting and retaining experienced management and key research and development personnel.





Competition for qualified candidates could cause us to offer higher compensation and other benefits in order to attract and retain them, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. We may also be unable to attract or retain the personnel necessary to achieve our business objectives, and any failure in this regard could severely disrupt our business and growth.





The current economic and credit environment could have an adverse effect on demand for certain of our products and services, which would in turn have a negative impact on our results of operations, our cash flows, our financial condition, our ability to borrow and our stock price.





Since late 2008, global market and economic conditions have been disrupted and volatile. Concerns over increased energy costs, geopolitical issues, the availability and cost of credit, the U.S. mortgage market and a declining residential real estate market in the U.S. have contributed to this increased volatility and diminished expectations for the economy and the markets going forward. These factors, combined with volatile oil prices, declining business and consumer confidence and increased unemployment, have precipitated a global recession.





It is difficult to predict how long the current economic conditions will persist, whether they will deteriorate further, and which of our products, if not all of them, will be adversely affected. As a result, these conditions could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.





Our business will suffer if we cannot obtain, maintain or renew necessary permits or licenses.





All PRC enterprises engaging in the sale of finished oil products are required to obtain from various PRC governmental authorities certain permits and licenses, including, without limitation, the Certificate for Wholesale Distribution of Finished Oil and the Dangerous Chemical Distribution License. We have obtained permits and licenses required for the distribution of finished oil. Failure to obtain all necessary approvals/permits may subject us to various penalties, such as fines or being required to vacate from the facilities where we currently operate our business.





These permits and licenses are subject to periodic renewal and/or reassessment by the relevant PRC government authorities and the standards of compliance required in relation thereto may from time to time be subject to change. We intend to apply for renewal and/or reassessment of such permits and licenses when required by applicable laws and regulations, however, we cannot assure you that we can obtain, maintain or renew the permits and licenses or accomplish the reassessment of such permits and licenses in a timely manner. Any changes in compliance standards, or any new laws or regulations that may prohibit or render it more restrictive for us to conduct our business or increase our compliance costs may adversely
affect our operations or profitability. Any failure by us to obtain, maintain or renew the licenses permits and approvals may have a material adverse effect on the operation of our business. In addition, we may not be able to carry on business without such permits and licenses being renewed and/or reassessed.





Power shortages, natural disasters, terrorist acts or other events could disrupt our operations and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position or results of operations.





Our business could be materially and adversely affected by power shortages, natural disasters, terrorist attacks or other disruptive events in the PRC. For example, in early 2008, parts of the PRC were affected by severe snow storms that significantly impacted public transportation systems and the power supply in those areas. In May 2008, Sichuan Province in the PRC suffered a strong earthquake measuring approximately 8.0 on the Richter scale that caused widespread damage and casualties. The May 2008 Sichuan earthquake had a material adverse effect on the general economic conditions in the areas affected by the earthquake and severely affected the transportation systems in those areas. Any future natural
disasters, terrorist attacks or other disruptive events in the PRC could cause a reduction in usage of or other severe disruptions to, public transportation systems and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position or results of operations.





If we require additional financing, we may not be able to find such financing on satisfactory terms or at all.





Our capital requirements may be accelerated as a result of many factors, including timing of development activities, underestimates of budget items, unanticipated expenses or capital expenditures, future product opportunities with collaborators and future business combinations. Consequently, we may need to seek additional debt or equity financing, which may not be available on favorable terms, if at all, and which may be dilutive to our stockholders. To the extent we raise additional capital by issuing equity securities, our stockholders may experience dilution. To the extent that we raise additional capital by issuing debt
securities, we may incur substantial interest obligations, may be required to pledge assets as security for the debt and may be constrained by restrictive financial and/or operational covenants. Debt financing would also be superior to our stockholders’ interest in bankruptcy or liquidation.

Our operating results may fluctuate, which makes our results difficult to predict and could cause our results to fall short of expectations.





We currently consume a large amount of refined diesel and gasoline. While we try to adjust the sales price of the products to track international crude oil price fluctuations, our ability to pass on the increased cost resulting in diesel and gasoline price increases to our customers is dependent on international and domestic market conditions as well as the PRC government’s price control over refined petroleum products. For example, the international crude oil price reached its historically high level in July 2008, but we were not able to effectively pass the increased cost to our customers. Although the current price-setting mechanism for refined petroleum products in China allows the PRC government to
adjust price in the PRC market when the average international crude oil price fluctuates beyond certain levels within a certain time period, the PRC government still retains discretion as to whether or when to adjust the refined petroleum products price. The PRC government will exercise certain price controls over refined petroleum products once international crude oil price experiences sustained growth or becomes significantly volatile. As a result, our results of operations and financial condition may be materially and adversely affected by the fluctuation of crude oil and refined petroleum product prices. Our operating results may fluctuate as a result of a number of factors, many of which are outside of our control, such as the price of crude oil. For these reasons, comparing operating results on a period-to-period basis may not be meaningful, and you should not rely on our
past results as an indication of future performance. Quarterly and annual revenues, costs and expenses as a percentage of our revenues may be significantly different from our historical or projected rates. Operating results in future quarters may fall below expectations. Any of these events could cause the price of our common stock to fall.





We rely heavily on outside suppliers for products derived from crude oil and other raw materials, and may even experience disruption of our ability to obtain products refined from crude oil and other raw materials.





We purchase a significant portion of our products from outside suppliers located in different provinces within the PRC. We are also aware that a large portion of our products originated in other countries.  We are subject to the political, geographical and economic risks associated with these other provinces and perhaps even the countries where the products have originated. If one or more of our material supply contracts were terminated or disrupted due to any natural disasters or political events, it is possible that we would not be able to find sufficient alternative sources of supply in a timely manner or on commercially reasonable terms. As a result, our business and financial condition would be
materially and adversely affected.





Our business faces operation risks and natural disasters that may cause significant property damages, personal injuries and interruption of operations, and we may not have sufficient insurance coverage for all potential financial losses incurred.





Transporting petroleum products involves a number of operating hazards.  Significant operating hazards and natural disasters may cause interruption to business operations, property or environmental damages as well as personal injuries, and each of these incidents could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.





We do not yet maintain insurance coverage on our property, plant, equipment and inventory. However, preventative measures such as insurance may not be effective in any event and if we should acquire insurance coverage it may not be sufficient to cover all the financial losses caused by operation risks and potential natural disasters, among other risks. Losses incurred or payments required to be made by us due to operating hazards or natural disasters, which are not fully insured, may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.





We are dependent on third parties to transport our products, so their failure to transport the products could adversely affect our earnings, sales and geographic market.





We use third parties for the vast majority of our shipping and transportation needs. If these parties fail to deliver products in a timely fashion, including lack of available trucks or drivers, labor stoppages or if there is an increase in transportation costs, including increased fuel costs, it would have a material adverse effect on our earnings and could reduce our sales and geographic market.





We have limited business insurance coverage and potential liabilities could exceed our ability to pay them.





The insurance industry in the PRC is still at an early stage of development. Insurance companies in the PRC offer limited business insurance products. We do not have any business liability or disruption insurance coverage for our operations in the PRC. Any business disruption, litigation or natural disaster may result in substantial costs and the diversion of our resources.





Risks Related to Corporate Governance and Common Stock





Our common stock is classified as a “penny stock” as that term is generally defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 to mean equity securities with a price of less than $5.00.  Our common stock will be subject to rules that impose sales practice and disclosure requirements on broker-dealers who engage in certain transactions involving a penny stock.




17





We are subject to the penny stock rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission that require brokers to provide extensive disclosure to its customers prior to executing trades in penny stocks. These disclosure requirements may cause a reduction in the trading activity of our Common Stock, which in all likelihood would make it difficult for the Company’s stockholders to sell their securities.





Rule 3a51-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 establishes the definition of a "penny stock," for purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has a minimum bid price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to a limited number of exceptions which are not available to us. It is likely that our shares will be considered to be penny stocks for the immediately foreseeable future. This classification severely and adversely affects any market liquidity for our common stock.





For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the penny stock rules require that a broker or dealer approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks and the broker or dealer receive from the investor a written agreement to the transaction setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased.  In order to approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must obtain financial information and investment experience and objectives of the person and make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and that that person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be
capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks.





The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prepared by the SEC relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form, sets forth:





●
the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination, and●
that the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction.





Disclosure also has to be made about the risks of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and in secondary trading and commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and the rights and remedies available to an investor in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions.





Finally, monthly statements have to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks.





Because of these regulations, broker-dealers may not wish to engage in the above-referenced necessary paperwork and disclosures and/or may encounter difficulties in their attempt to sell shares of our common stock, which may affect the ability of selling shareholders or other holders to sell their shares in any secondary market and have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in any secondary market. These additional sales practice and disclosure requirements could impede the sale of our common stock. In addition, the liquidity for our common stock may decrease, with a corresponding decrease in the price of our common stock. Our common stock is subject to such penny stock rules for the
foreseeable future and our shareholders will, in all likelihood, find it difficult to sell their common stock.





The market for penny stock has experienced numerous frauds and abuses which could adversely impact subscribers of our stock.





We believe that the market for penny stocks has suffered from patterns of fraud and abuse. Such patterns include:





●
control of the market for the security by one or a few broker-dealers that are often related to the promoter or issuer;●
manipulation of prices through prearranged matching of purchases and sales and false and misleading press releases;●
“boiler room" practices involving high pressure sales tactics and unrealistic price projections by inexperienced sales persons;●
excessive and undisclosed bid-ask differentials and markups by selling broker-dealers; and●
wholesale dumping of the same securities by promoters and broker-dealers after prices have been manipulated to a desired level, along with the inevitable collapse of those prices with consequent investor losses.





We believe that many of these abuses have occurred with respect to the promotion of low price stock companies that lacked experienced management, adequate financial resources, an adequate business plan and/or marketable and successful business or product.





We are controlled by the officers and directors of the Company.





Our officers, directors and principal stockholders and their affiliates own or control a majority of our outstanding common stock. As a result, these stockholders, if acting together, would be able to effectively control matters requiring approval by our stockholders, including the election of our Board of Directors.





18




Our certificate of incorporation limits the liability of members of the Board of Directors.





Our certificate of incorporation limits the personal liability of the director of the Company for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, subject to certain exceptions, to the fullest extent allowed. We are organized under Colorado law. Accordingly, except in limited circumstances, our directors will not be liable to our stockholders for breach of their fiduciary duties.





Provisions of our certificate of incorporation, bylaws and Colorado corporate law have anti-takeover effects.





Some provisions in our certificate of incorporation and bylaws could delay or prevent a change in control of us, even if that change might be beneficial to our stockholders. Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws contain provisions that might make acquiring control of us difficult, including provisions limiting rights to call special meetings of stockholders and regulating the ability of our stockholders to nominate directors for election at annual meetings of our stockholders. In addition, our board of directors has the authority, without further approval of our stockholders, to issue common stock having such rights, preferences and privileges as the board of directors may determine. Any such issuance
of common stock could, under some circumstances, have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of us and might adversely affect the rights of holders of common stock.





In addition, we are subject to Colorado statutes regulating business combinations, takeovers and control share acquisitions, which might also hinder or delay a change in control of us. Anti-takeover provisions in our certificate of incorporation and bylaws, anti-takeover provisions that could be included in the common stock when issued and the Colorado statutes regulating business combinations, takeovers and control share acquisitions can depress the market price of our securities and can limit the stockholders’ ability to receive a premium on their shares by discouraging takeover and tender offer bids, even if such events could be viewed by our shareholders or others as beneficial
transactions.





Our internal financial reporting procedures are still being developed. During the fiscal year ending June 30, 2012, the Company will need to allocate significant resources to meet applicable internal financial reporting standards.





We have adopted disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, are recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act are accumulated and communicated to management, including principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to
allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. We are taking steps to develop and adopt appropriate disclosure controls and procedures.





These efforts require significant time and resources. If we are unable to establish appropriate internal financial reporting controls and procedures, our reported financial information may be inaccurate and we will encounter difficulties in the audit or review of our consolidated financial statements by our independent auditors, which in turn may have material adverse effects on our ability to prepare consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America and to comply with SEC reporting obligations.





Failure to achieve and maintain effective internal controls in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002 could prevent us from producing reliable financial reports or identifying fraud. In addition, current and potential stockholders could lose confidence in our financial reporting, which could have an adverse effect on our stock price.





We are subject to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Effective internal controls are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and effectively prevent fraud, and a lack of effective controls could preclude the Company from accomplishing these critical functions. We are required to document and test our internal control procedures in order to satisfy the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, in connection with, Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”) Auditing Standard No. 5 (“AS 5”) which requires annual management assessments of the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting.  Although we
intend to augment our internal control procedures and expand our accounting staff, there is no guarantee that this effort will be adequate.





During the course of testing, we may identify deficiencies which we may not be able to remediate in time to meet the deadline imposed by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act for compliance with the requirements of Section 404 and AS5. In addition, if we fail to maintain the adequacy of our internal accounting controls, as such standards are modified, supplemented or amended from time to time, we may not be able to ensure that we can conclude on an ongoing basis that we have effective internal controls over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404. Failure to achieve and maintain effective internal controls could cause us to face regulatory action and also cause investors to lose confidence in our reported
financial information, either of which could have an adverse effect on our stock price.





19





Shareholders may have difficulty trading and obtaining quotations for our common stock.





Our common stock may not be actively traded, and the bid and ask prices for our common stock on the NYSE-Amex may fluctuate widely. As a result, shareholders may find it difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations of the price of, our securities. This severely limits the liquidity of the common stock, and would likely reduce the market price of our common stock and hamper our ability to raise additional capital.





The market price of our common stock may, and is likely to continue to be, highly volatile and subject to wide fluctuations.





The market price of our common stock is likely to be highly volatile and could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to a number of factors that are beyond our control, including:





●

dilution caused by the issuance of additional shares of common stock and other forms of equity securities in connection with future capital financings to fund business operations and growth, to attract and retain valuable personnel and in connection with future strategic partnerships with other companies;●

announcements of new acquisitions or other business initiatives by the Company’s competitors;●

our ability to take advantage of new acquisitions or other business initiatives;●

fluctuations in revenue from our petroleum products;●

changes in the market for petroleum products and/or in the capital markets generally;●

changes in the demand for petroleum products, including changes resulting from the introduction or expansion of new petroleum products;●

quarterly variations in our revenues and operating expenses;●

changes in the valuation of similarly situated companies, both in our industry and in other industries;●

changes in analysts’ estimates affecting us, our competitors and/or our industry;●

changes in the accounting methods used in or otherwise affecting our industry;●

additions and departures of key personnel;●

announcements of technological innovations or new products available to our industry;●

announcements by relevant governments pertaining to incentives for biodegradable product development programs;●

fluctuations in interest rates and the availability of capital in the capital markets; and●

significant sales of our common stock, including sales by the investors following registration of the shares of common stock issued in future offerings by us.





These and other factors are largely beyond our control, and the impact of these risks, singularly or in the aggregate, may result in material adverse changes to the market price of our common stock and/or our results of operations and financial condition.





Our operating results may fluctuate significantly, and these fluctuations may cause our stock price to decline.





Operating results will likely vary in the future primarily as the result of fluctuations in our revenues and operating expenses, expenses that we incur, and other factors. If results of operations do not meet the expectations of current or potential investors, the price of our common stock may decline.





We are required to pay dividends under certain recent financing arrangements but otherwise we do not expect to pay dividends in the foreseeable future.





We do not intend to declare dividends payable to common stock shareholders for the foreseeable future.  We anticipate that we will reinvest any future earnings in the development and growth of our business. Therefore, investors will not receive any funds unless they sell their common stock, and stockholders may be unable to sell their shares on favorable terms or at all. Investors cannot be assured of a positive return on investment or that they will not lose the entire amount of their investment in our common stock.





Risks Related to the Company’s Corporate Structure





PRC laws and regulations governing our business and the validity of certain contractual arrangements are uncertain. If we are found to be in violation, we could be subject to sanctions which could result in significant disruptions to our operations and/or our ability to generate revenues.





There are substantial uncertainties regarding the interpretation and application of PRC laws and regulations, including, but not limited to, the laws and regulations governing our business, or the enforcement and performance of our contractual arrangements with our vendors and customers. We are considered a foreign person or foreign enterprise under PRC law.  These laws and regulations are relatively new and may be subject to change, and their official interpretation and enforcement may involve substantial uncertainty. The effectiveness of newly enacted laws, regulations or amendments may be delayed, resulting in detrimental reliance by foreign investors. New laws and regulations that affect existing and
proposed future businesses may also be applied retroactively.




20




The PRC government has broad discretion in dealing with violations of laws and regulations, including levying fines, revoking business and other licenses and requiring actions necessary for compliance. In particular, licenses and permits issued or granted to us by relevant governmental bodies may be revoked at a later time by higher regulatory bodies. We cannot predict the effect of the interpretation of existing or new PRC laws or regulations on our business. We cannot assure our shareholders that our current ownership and operating structure would not be found in violation of any current or future PRC laws or regulations. As a result, we may be subject to sanctions, including fines, and could be required to
restructure our operations or cease to provide certain services. Any of these or similar actions could significantly disrupt our business operations or restrict us from conducting a substantial portion of our business operations, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.





Risks Related to Doing Business in China





Governmental control of currency conversion may affect the value of your investment.





The PRC government imposes controls on the convertibility of Renminbi (“RMB”) into foreign currencies and, in certain cases, the remittance of currency out of China. We receive substantially all of our revenues in RMB. Under our current structure, our cash receipts are primarily derived from cash transfers from our PRC subsidiaries. Shortages in the availability of foreign currency may restrict the ability of our PRC subsidiaries and our affiliated entities to remit sufficient foreign currency to pay cash or other payments to us, or otherwise satisfy their foreign currency denominated obligations. Under existing PRC foreign exchange regulations, payments of current account items, including profit
distributions, interest payments and expenditures from trade-related transactions, can be made in foreign currencies without prior approval from the PRC State Administration of Foreign Exchange by complying with certain procedural requirements. However, approval from appropriate government authorities is required where RMB is to be converted into foreign currency and remitted out of China to pay capital expenses such as the repayment of bank loans denominated in foreign currencies. The PRC government may also at its discretion restrict access in the future to foreign currencies for current account transactions. If the foreign exchange control system prevents us from obtaining sufficient foreign currency to satisfy our currency demands, we may not be able to pay dividends in foreign currencies to our shareholders, including holders of our common stock.





Recent PRC regulations relating to acquisitions of PRC companies by foreign entities may create regulatory uncertainties that could limit the ability of our PRC subsidiaries to distribute dividends or otherwise adversely affect the implementation of our acquisition strategy.





The PRC State Administration of Foreign Exchange (“SAFE”), issued a public notice in January 2005 concerning foreign exchange regulations on mergers and acquisitions in China. The public notice states that if an offshore company intends to acquire a PRC company, such acquisition will be subject to strict examination by the relevant foreign exchange authorities. The public notice also states that the approval of the relevant foreign exchange authorities is required for any sale or transfer by the PRC residents of a PRC company’s assets or equity interests to foreign entities, such as us, for equity interests or assets of the foreign entities.





In April 2005, SAFE issued another public notice clarifying the January notice. In accordance with the April notice, if an acquisition of a PRC company by an offshore company controlled by PRC residents had been confirmed by a Foreign Investment Enterprise Certificate prior to the issuance of the January notice, each of the PRC residents is required to submit a registration form to the local SAFE branch to register his or her respective ownership interests in the offshore company. The SAFE notices do not specify the timeframe during which such registration must be completed. The PRC resident must also amend such registration form if there is a material event affecting the offshore company, such as, among other
things, a change to share capital, a transfer of stock, or if such company is involved in a merger and an acquisition or a spin-off transaction or uses its assets in China to guarantee offshore obligations. We have notified our shareholders who are PRC residents to register with the local SAFE branch as required under the SAFE notices. However, we cannot provide any assurances that all of our shareholders who are PRC residents will comply with our request to make or obtain any applicable registrations or approvals required by these SAFE notices. The failure or inability of our  PRC resident shareholders to comply with the registration procedures set forth therein may subject us to fines and legal sanctions, restrict our cross-border investment activities, or limit our PRC subsidiaries’ ability to distribute dividends to us.





As it is uncertain how the SAFE notices will be interpreted or implemented, it is difficult to predict how these regulations will affect our business operations or future strategy. For example, we may be subject to more stringent review and approval process with respect to our foreign exchange activities, such as remittance of dividends and foreign-currency-denominated borrowings, which may adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. In addition, if we decide to acquire a PRC company, we cannot assure our shareholders or the owners of such company, as the case may be, will be able to obtain the necessary approvals or complete the necessary filings and registrations required by the SAFE
notices. This may restrict our ability to implement our acquisition strategy and could adversely affect our business and prospects.





Fluctuation in the value of the RMB may have a material adverse effect on your investment.





The value of the RMB against the U.S. dollar and other currencies may fluctuate and is affected by, among other things, changes in political and economic conditions. On July 21, 2005, the PRC government changed its decade-old policy of pegging the value of the RMB to the U.S. dollar. Under the new policy, the RMB is permitted to fluctuate within a narrow and managed band against a basket of certain foreign currencies. While the international reaction to the RMB revaluation has generally been positive, there remains significant international pressure on the PRC government to adopt an even more flexible currency policy, which could result in a further and more significant appreciation of the RMB against the U.S.
dollar. Our revenues and costs are denominated in RMB. An appreciation of RMB against the U.S. dollar would also result in foreign currency translation losses for financial reporting purposes when we translate our RMB denominated financial assets into U.S. Dollars, as the U.S. Dollar is our reporting currency.




21





PRC regulations relating to the establishment of offshore special purpose companies by PRC residents, if applied to us, may subject the PRC resident shareholders of us or our parent company to personal liability and limit our ability to acquire PRC companies or to inject capital into our PRC subsidiary, limit our PRC subsidiary's ability to distribute profits to us or otherwise materially adversely affect us.





In October 2005 SAFE issued a public notice, the Notice on Relevant Issues in the Foreign Exchange Control over Financing and Return Investment Through Special Purpose Companies by Residents Inside China, or the SAFE notice, which requires PRC residents, including both legal persons and natural persons, to register with the competent local SAFE branch before establishing or controlling any company outside of China, referred to as an "offshore special purpose company," for the purpose of overseas equity financing involving onshore assets or equity interests held by them.  In addition any PRC resident that is the shareholder of an offshore special purpose company is required to amend its SAFE registration
with the local SAFE branch with respect to that offshore special purpose company in connection with any increase or decrease of capital transfer of shares, merger, division, equity investment or creation of any security interest over any assets located in China. Moreover, if the offshore special purpose company was established and owned the onshore assets or equity interests before the implementation date of the SAFE notice, a retroactive SAFE registration is required to have been completed before March 31, 2006. If any PRC shareholder of any offshore special purpose company fails to make the required SAFE registration and amendment, the PRC subsidiaries of that offshore special purpose company may be prohibited from distributing their profits and the proceeds from any reduction in capital, share transfer or liquidation to the offshore special purpose company. Moreover, failure to
comply with the SAFE registration and amendment requirements described above could result in liability under PRC laws for evasion of applicable foreign exchange restrictions. After the SAFE notice, an implementation rule on the SAFE notice was issued on May 29, 2007 which provides for implementation guidance and supplements the procedures as provided in the SAFE notice.





Due to lack of official interpretation of SAFE notice and implementation rules, some of the terms and provisions in the SAFE notice remain unclear and implementation by central SAFE and local SAFE branches of the SAFE notice has been inconsistent since its adoption.  Based on the advice of our PRC counsel and after consultation with relevant SAFE officials, the PRC resident shareholders of our parent company, Longwei Petroleum Investment Holdings Limited, have completed their respective SAFE registrations pursuant to the SAFE notice.  Moreover, because of uncertainty over how the SAFE notice and its implementation rules will be interpreted and implemented, and how or whether SAFE
notice and implementation rules will apply it to us, we cannot predict how it will affect our business operations or future strategies. For example our present and prospective PRC subsidiaries’ ability to conduct foreign exchange activities, such as the remittance of dividends and foreign currency-denominated borrowings, may be subject to compliance with the SAFE notice by our or our parent company's PRC resident beneficial holders. In addition, such PRC residents may not always complete the necessary registration procedures required by the SAFE notice.  We also have little control over either our present or prospective direct or indirect shareholders or the outcome of such registration procedures. A failure by our or our parent company's PRC resident beneficial holders or future PRC resident shareholders to comply with the SAFE notice, if SAFE requires it, could subject
us to fines or legal sanctions, restrict our overseas or cross-border investment activities, limit our subsidiary's ability to make distributions or pay dividends or affect our ownership structure, which could adversely affect our business and prospects..

The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted Rule 15g-9 which establishes the definition of a “penny stock,” for purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require: (i) that a broker or dealer approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks and (ii) the broker or dealer receive from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased. In order to approve a person’s account for
transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must (i) obtain financial information and investment experience and objectives of the person; and (ii) make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and that person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks. The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prepared by the Commission relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form, (i) sets forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination and (ii) that the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction. Disclosure also has to be made about the risks of investing in penny stocks in both public

Highlights and Executive Summary





Longwei Petroleum Investment Holding Limited (the “Company”) is an energy company engaged in the wholesale distribution of finished petroleum products in the PRC.  Our oil and gas operations consist of transporting, storage and selling finished petroleum products, entirely in the PRC.  We purchase diesel, gasoline, fuel oil and solvents from various petroleum refineries in the PRC. Our headquarters are located in Taiyuan, Shanxi Province. We have a storage capacity for our Products of 120,000 metric tons located at our fuel depot storage facilities in Taiyuan and in Gujiao, Shanxi, 50,000 metric tons and 70,000 metric tons capacity respectively at each location. The Gujiao facility
was acquired in January of 2009 and commenced operations in November of 2010.  We are 1 of 3 licensed intermediaries in Taiyuan and the sole licensed intermediary in Gujiao that operates its own large scale storage tanks. We have the necessary licenses to operate and sell Products not only in Shanxi but throughout the entire PRC.  Our storage tanks have the largest storage capacity of any private enterprise in Shanxi.  We seek to earn profits by selling our Products at competitive prices with timely delivery to coal mining operations, power supply customers, large-scale gas stations and small, independent gas stations. We also earn revenue under an agency fee by acting as a purchasing agent for other intermediaries in Shanxi, and through limited sales of diesel and gasoline at two retail gas stations, each located at our facilities. The sales price and the
cost basis of our products is largely dependent on regulations and price control measures instituted and controlled by the PRC government as well as the price of crude oil. The price of crude oil is subject to fluctuation due to a variety of factors, all of which are beyond our control.





We were incorporated under the laws of the State of Colorado on March 17, 2000 as Tabatha II, Inc.  On October 12, 2007, we changed our name to Longwei Petroleum Investment Holding Limited.





For the year ended June 30, 2011, we reported revenues of approximately $481.6 million, an increase of 40.3% from revenues of approximately $343.2 million reported for the year ended June 30, 2010.  We continue to expand our customer base and distribution platform.

Revenues





Revenues increased by $138,304 or 40.3% from $343,249 for the year ended June 30, 2010 to $481,553 for the year ended June 30, 2011. Our sales growth during the period resulted primarily from the following:





(1)
In November 2009, we began operations at our Gujiao facility, which increased its revenue contribution 137% from $79.3 million for the year ended June 30, 2010 to $188.3 million for the year ended June 30, 2011.





(2)
The twelve-month weighted average sales price per metric ton of Product sold increased 21.2% from $841/mt for the year ended June 30, 2010 to $1,019/mt for the year ended June 30, 2011.





(3)
New customer contracts and stable organic growth within our existing customer base due to solid domestic petroleum demand from both industrial customers and gas station operators.  Our sales volume in metric tons (“mt”) increased 16.7% from 385,245mt for the year ended June 30, 2010 to 449,544mt for the year ended June 30, 2011.





Our revenues are segmented into two categories between product sales and agency fees.  For product sales we purchase, take physical possession, and sell diesel, gasoline, fuel oil and solvents.  For agency fees we act as a purchasing agent earning a commission by allowing intermediaries to use our licenses and buying power to purchase directly from the refineries.  During the year ended June 30, 2011, our product sales and agency fees increased $134,107 or 41.4% from $323,978 to $458,085, and $4,197 or 21.8% from $19,271 to $23,468, respectively over the year ended June 30, 2010.





For the years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, product sales revenues accounted for 95.1% and 94.4% of total revenues and agency fees accounted for 4.9% and 5.6% of total revenues, respectively.  Our product sales revenues mix for the year ended June 30, 2011 was split approximately 48% diesel, 50% gasoline, 1% solvents and 1% fuel oils.  Our product sales revenues mix for the year ended June 30, 2010 was split approximately 47% diesel, 49% gasoline, 2% solvents, and 2% fuel oils.

Our industrial customers are primarily coal mining operations and power generation plants, which use diesel, gasoline, fuel oil and solvents and accounted for approximately 50% and 55% of our product revenues for the years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.  Industrial users remain our largest customer category primarily because of our new Gujiao facility, which is strategically located in an industrial region.  Industrial customers are also our primary source of agency fee revenues because of the large quantity of product required for their operations.





Large-scale gas stations accounted for approximately 34% and 35% of our product revenues for the years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.  Our third largest group of customers consists of small, independent gas stations. These small, independent operators are a growing segment of the market and increased as a percentage of product revenues to approximately 16% from 10% for the year ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. These customers primarily buy diesel and gasoline to support their retail network of gas stations to fuel the growing demand of new automobiles on the roads in the PRC.  These customers depend on our timely delivery and customer service compared to the larger
state-owned enterprises.

During the year ended June 30, 2011, the Company allocated product sales between its two facilities to better serve its customer base.  The two facilities are approximately 50 kilometers apart and their service markets overlaps.  Total sales volume dropped 8.7% over the prior quarter for the three month period ended March 31, 2011, primarily due to the two-week drop in business activity associated with the Chinese New Year.  Total sales volume dropped in consecutive quarters during the year ended June 30, 2011.  The drop in volume was primarily due to rising fuel prices and the central government’s attempts to slow down economic growth.  During this timeframe
the Company was willing to sacrifice sales to maintain its gross margin.  Overall, sales volume was up quarter-over-quarter for the first three quarters of 2011 over 2010 performance.  The Company expects stable growth as the PRC economy experiences a steady rise.





Costs of Sales





Costs of sales increased by $109,728 or 40.0% from $274,002 for the year ended June 30, 2010 to $383,730 for the year ended June 30, 2011.  As a percentage of total revenues our total cost of sales remained flat at approximately 80% of revenues.  The twelve-month weighted average cost basis per metric ton of Product we sold increased by $143/mt or 20.1% to $854/mt from $711/mt during the years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.





The cost basis of finished petroleum products fluctuates during the year due to the pricing mechanism in place in the PRC.  The price of finished petroleum products is established by a PRC regulatory body under a formula based on the movement of international prices over a look-back period of 22 working days and reset when the price increases or decreases by 4%.  We attempt to manage our costs by utilizing our storage capacity to adjust inventory levels based on the anticipated movement of industry pricing to take advantage of pricing, supply and demand fluctuations within the marketplace.  The Company’s inventory turnover for the years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 was
approximately 41 days and 32 days to correspond to the 22 working day pricing reset period.  The Company is continually working to optimize its inventory turnover, which expands sales capacity based on increased inventory movement.  In times of anticipated rising prices the Company tries to lock-in pricing and increase inventory on-hand prior to the PRC pricing mechanism adjusting the set retail price upwards.  Our supplier advance balance with refineries allows us to lock-in supply so that we can react quickly to purchases based on the timing of the PRC pricing levels adjustments.

The Company monitors its business in two segments, product sales and agency fees.  Cost of product sales is allocated to product sales and includes the cost to purchase and transport the product to the Company and the costs, if any, to deliver the goods to the customer. Based on the product sales revenue, costs of product sales increased by $109,728 or 40.0% from $274,002 for the year ended June 30, 2010 to $383,730.  As a percentage of product sales revenues our cost of product sales decreased from 84.4% to 83.8% for the years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.  The 0.6% improvement in product sales gross margin was the result of proper inventory management by increasing
inventory ahead of rising prices.  Our refinery costs are set at open-market prices, while the wholesale price is somewhat dictated by the retail price cap mechanism.





The cost of agency fee service revenues consists of selling commission, transportation or other costs, if any, associated with the agency fee arrangement.  For years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, the Company stopped transporting or handling the products associated with the agency sales and only acts in a broker capacity allowing other intermediaries to use its licenses and buying power to purchase product directly from the refineries.  The Company considers any costs associated with agency fee revenues immaterial and has not allocated any costs to agency fees for the years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.  For the years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, agency
fees contributed to improve overall gross margin by approximately 4% and 5%, respectively.

Operating expenses for the year ended June 30, 2011 increased $1,318 or 27.3% to $6,154 as compared to $4,836 for the year ended June 30, 2010. As a percentage of revenues, operating expenses declined to 1.3% for the year ended June 30, 2011 from 1.4% for the year ended June 30, 2010.  Operating expenses during 2011 consisted of non-cash expenses of $902 in stock based compensation and $2,462 in depreciation.  The company paid $2,072 in cash payments for consulting, professional fees, insurance and travel primarily related to fees and expenses related to the operations of the public company.  Operating expenses during 2010 consisted of non-cash expenses of $696 in stock based
compensation and $997 in depreciation.  The company paid $2,094 in cash payments for consulting, professional fees, insurance and travel primarily related to fees and expenses related to the operations of the public company.





Operating Income





Operating income for the year ended June 30, 2011 increased $27,258 or 42.3% to $91,669 from $64,411 for the year ended June 30, 2010, primarily due to an overall increase in sale volume and price increases in the market, good inventory and cost management.





Income Before Taxes





Income before taxes for the year ended June 30, 2011increased $19,285 or 28.8% to $86,242 as compared to $66,957 for the year ended June 30, 2010 primarily due to the increase in revenues and in other expenses associated with the accounting for the non-cash warrant derivative liability charge.





Other expenses for the year ended June 30, 2011 were primarily related to the loss on the warrant derivative liability of ($5,447).  Other income for the year ended June 30, 2010 was primarily related to the gain on the warrant derivative liability of $2,581.  In accordance with GAAP, we recorded a non-cash expense for the change in the fair value of the warrant derivative. The financial instrument classified as derivatives consisted of stock warrants issued in connection with our October 2009 Financing.  The warrants have a three year term that expire October 29, 2012 and have an exercise price per share of $2.255.  The warrant derivative liability expense (a non-cash
charge) increased to a charge of ($8,028) or (313.3%) to ($5,447) from $2,546 for the years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.  The increase in the warrant derivative liability expense was attributable to the change in the calculation variables for this expense that factors in stock price, risk-free rate, volatility and duration outstanding for the warrants.





The net interest income or (expense) improved for the period from a net expense of ($35) for the year ended June 30, 2010 to income of $20 for the year ended June 30, 2011 because the Company had no outstanding long term debt.





30





Net Income





Net income increased by $12,470 or 24.8% to $62,718 for the year ended June 30, 2011 from $50,248 for the year ended June 30, 2010, due to the reasons set forth above.





Comprehensive income for the year ended June 30, 2011increased $23,153 or 44.1% to $75,702 from $52,549 for the year ended June 30, 2010, due to the increase in net income, including the increase in foreign currency translation adjustment of $12,984 between the periods.





Net income attributable to common shareholders increased by $21,414 or 52.1% to $62,517 for the year ended June 30, 2011 from $41,094.  For the year ended 2011, we paid $201 cash dividends on preferred stock, which reduced net income attributable to common shareholders by that amount to $62,517.  For the year ended June 30, 2010, we paid cash dividends of $510 and charged a non-cash adjustment for the allocation of the fair value of the preferred stock to a deemed dividend, which reduced net income attributable to common shareholders to $41,103.





Basic and Diluted Income Attributable to Common Shareholders per Share





The Company’s basic net income attributable to common shareholders per share increased $0.16 or 33.3% to $0.64 from $0.48 for the years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. In accordance with GAAP, we recorded a non-cash expense for the change in the fair value of derivatives of $5,447 or $0.06 per basic share and a benefit of $2,581 or $0.03 per basic share for the years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.





The Company’s diluted net income attributable to common shareholders per share increased $0.18 or 41.9% to $0.61 from $0.43 for the years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.  In accordance with GAAP, we recorded a non-cash expense for the change in the fair value of derivatives of $5,447 or $0.05 per diluted share and a benefit of $2,581 or $0.03 per diluted share for the years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.





We do not anticipate significant increases in selling, general and administration expenses other than those directly attributed to increases in sales such as marketing and sales commissions and our compliance costs as we implement the requirements of Sarbanes Oxley.





Reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP Financial Measures





The following table contains financial measures that are not calculated in accordance with GAAP.  Such measures, which are unaudited and should only be read in conjunction with our financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this report, are intended to serve as a supplement to the GAAP results.  The unaudited non-GAAP information reflects the adjustment to GAAP Net Income Attributable to Common Shareholders on a non-GAAP basis, whereby the effect of the noncash adjustment for each period presented of the change in the fair value of derivatives associated with the October 2009 Warrants is added back to the GAAP Net Income Attributable to Common Shareholders.  This non-GAAP
adjustment has been used to calculate the non-GAAP basic and diluted earnings per share.  The non-GAAP operating results for the quarters presented are not necessarily indicative of results for any future periods, but management believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors for a more accurate picture of the Company’s operations on an ongoing basis.

All dollar figures below are “in thousands” except for $/mt and per share data.





Revenues





Revenues increased by $146,438 or 74% from $196,811 for the year ended June 30, 2009 to $343,249 for the year ended June 30, 2010. Our sales growth during the period resulted from the following:





(1)   New customer contracts and organic growth within our existing customer base due to solid domestic petroleum demand from both industrial and consumer customers.





(2)   In November 2009, we commenced operations at our Gujiao facility, which generated approximately $79,266 in revenues during the first eight months of operations.





(3)   The weighted average sales price per metric ton (“mt”) of Product sold increased 2% to $796/mt from $781/mt during the years ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.




32




During the year ended June 30, 2010 we experienced strong revenue growth among our industrial customers, which represented 55% of our total revenues, an increase from 45% for the year ended June 30, 2009.  Large-scale gas stations accounted for approximately 35% and 45% of our revenues for the years ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.  While sales volume to large-scale gas stations was up in 2010 with the growing demand of new automobiles on the roads in the PRC, the percentage of total revenues was down because of the larger volume increase in sales to our industrial customers.  The new Gujiao facility is strategically located to serve a number of our larger industrial
customers.  The percentage of sales to small, independent gas stations remained at 10% of our total revenues across the periods during the years ended June 30, 2009 and 2010, respectively.





Our revenues are segmented into two categories between product sales and agency fees.  For product sales we purchase, take physical possession, and sell diesel, gasoline, fuel oil and solvents.  For agency fees we act as a purchasing agent earning a commission by allowing intermediaries to use our licenses to buy directly from the refineries.  During the year ended June 30, 2010, our product sales and agency fees increased $138,787 or 75% from $185,191 to $323,978, and $7,651 or 66% from $11,620 to $19,271, respectively over the year ended June 30, 2009.





Costs of Sales





Costs of sales increased by $116,661 or 74% from $157,341 for the year ended June 30, 2009 to $274,002 for the year ended June 30, 2010.  As a percentage of total revenues our average product cost of sales remained flat at 80% of revenues.  The weighted average cost basis per metric ton of Product we sold increased 5% to $712/mt from $676/mt during the years ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.





The cost basis of finished petroleum products fluctuates during the year due to the pricing mechanism in place in the PRC.  The price of finished petroleum products is established by a PRC regulatory body under a formula based on the movement of international prices over a look-back period of 22 working days and reset when the price increases or decrease by 4%.  We attempt to manage our costs by utilizing our storage capacity to adjust inventory levels based on the anticipated movement of industry pricing to take advantage of pricing, supply and demand fluctuations within the marketplace.  Our inventory turnover is approximately 30 days to correspond to the 22 working day pricing
reset period.  Our supplier advance balance with refineries allows us to lock-in supply so that we can react quickly to purchases based on the timing of the PRC pricing levels adjustments.





Cost of sales per segment during the year ended June 30, 2010 increased for product sales $118,677 or 76% from $155,325 for the year ended June 30, 2009 to $274,002 for the year ended June 30, 2010.  As a percentage of revenues the increase was 1% from 84% to 85% of revenues during the years ended June 30, 2009 compared to June 30, 2010.  This was offset by the decrease in cost of sales associated with agency fees.  For the year ended June 30, 2009 the cost of sales related to agency fees was $2,016 compared to $-0- during the year ended June 30, 2010.  Prior to the year ended June 30, 2010 the Company incurred the cost of transporting the petroleum product under the agency
fee arrangement, but has stopped this practice.  Therefore, there are no costs of sales associated with agency fees during year ended June 30, 2010.





Operating Expenses





Operating expenses for the year ended June 30, 2010 decreased $2,831 or 37% to $4,836 as compared to $7,667 for the year ended June 30, 2009. Operating expenses in 2010 consisted of $696 in stock based compensation, $2,094 in cash payments for consulting and professional fees and $997 in depreciation, among others.  Operating expenses in 2009 consisted of $3,664 in stock based compensation, $627 in cash payments for consulting and professional fees, $1,183 in repairs and maintenance and $392 in depreciation, among others.  We reduced stock based compensation by paying cash for consulting and professional services, primarily in the US parent company.  The Company has no plans to
make stock based compensation a normal attribute of its employees and consultants’ contracts but it is likely some stock issuances for compensation will be awarded during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2011 and forward. During 2009 we experienced higher repair and maintenance in our Taiyuan facility to upgrade the operations.  In 2010, we focused on the Gujiao facility and the expenses were capitalized as part of the overall expansion and retrofit of the facility.  Our operating expenses in the PRC increased $171 or 14% from $1,260 during the year ended June 30, 2009 to $1,431 during the year ended June 30, 2010 due primarily to higher legal and professional fees associated with the build out of the Gujiao facility.





Income Before Taxes





Income before taxes for the year ended June 30, 2010 increased $36,060 or 117% to $66,957 as compared to $30,897 for the year ended June 30, 2009 due to the sales growth in product volume. Other income for the year ended June 30, 2010 was $2,546, primarily related to the gain on the derivative warrant liability.  Other expense for the year ended June 30, 2009 was related to debt extinguishment expense of $637, which was the result of a February of 2009 settlement agreement with a group of investors. The net interest income or (expense) was down for the year ended June 30, 2010 to ($35) from ($269) in year ended 2009 because of the reduction in convertible debt.





33





Net Income





Net income increased by $28,471 or 131% from $21,777 for the year ended June 30, 2009 to $50,248 for the year ended June 30, 20010, due to the reasons set forth above.  For the year ended June 30, 2010 net income attributable to common shareholders reduced net income $9,154 due to cash dividends paid on the preferred stock and the adjustment for the allocation of the fair value of the preferred stock deemed a dividend of $8,644, both related to the October 2009 financing.  For the year ended 2009, we paid no dividends or had additional charges against net income attributable to common shareholders.





Basic and Diluted Earnings per Share





The Company’s net income attributable to common shareholders basic per share earnings were $0.48 and $0.28 for the years ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.





The Company’s net income attributable to common shareholders diluted per share earnings were $0.43 and $0.28 for the years ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.  On October 29, 2009 the Company completed a gross financing of $14,849,201, which included dilutive instruments issued as convertible preferred stock, convertible on a 1:1 basis to common shares, and 3-year warrants exercisable at $2.255 per share.  There are currently 21,783,474 convertible preferred stock and warrants outstanding   The Company also had stock awards outstanding at year end June 30, 2010 of 78,000 common shares due to an officer and two directors.





We do not anticipate significant increases in selling, general and administration expenses other than those directly attributed to increases in sales such as marketing and sales commissions and our compliance costs as we implement the requirements of Sarbanes Oxley.





LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES





General





Cash and cash equivalents totaled $9,422 at June 30, 2011.  As of June 30, 2011 our current assets decreased $1,444 or 1.0% from $143,994 at year end June 30, 2010 to $142,550 at year end June 30, 2011, primarily due to the reallocation of the deposit of $85,093 to long-term assets associated with the purchase of fixed assets.  Overall, we had a decrease in cash flows of $703 during the twelve month period ended June 30, 2011 resulting from $79,670 of cash provided by operating activities, cash used in investing activities of $(85,015) and cash provided by financing activities of $2,709.





Cash and cash equivalents totaled $10,125 at June 30, 2010.  As of June 30, 2010 our current assets increased $60,597 or 73% from $83,397 at year end June 30, 2009 to $143,994 at year end June 30, 2010.  Overall, we had an increase in cash flows of $2,817 during the year ended June 30, 2010 resulting from $(6,915) of cash used in operating activities, cash used in financing activities of $(7,605), offset by cash provided by investing activities of $17,733.





Our current ratio is approximately 12:1 (current assets to current liabilities) and improves to approximately 26:1 including the deposit, but net of the fair value of the warrant derivative liability at June 30, 2011.  We have no long term debt as of June 30, 2011.





Accounts receivable turnover improved from 28 days to 19 days on total sales, and improved from 112 days to 75 days on credit sales during the twelve month period.  (Payments are due upon receipt of the products unless the customer has been pre-approved for payment terms.  Approximately 75% of the Company’s customers are cash-payment only upon delivery, and certain large customers are preapproved for payment terms of up to 90 days.)





Inventory turnover decreased from 32 days to 41 days to account for additional product held in on-hand inventory during a period of rising prices to take advantage of our large storage capacity.  The ratio of advances to suppliers to inventory decreased from approximately 2:1 to 1:1 from year ended June 30, 2010 to year end June 30, 2011, respectively, but the combined balance in both inventory on-hand and advances to suppliers remained the same during the period at approximately $108 million.  We have continued to improve our working capital management to enhance our flexibility on inventory management and purchasing capability to react to changes in market prices.





Our current ratio was approximately 15:1 (current assets to current liabilities) and we had no long term debt as of June 30, 2010.  We improved our asset turnover ratios during the period from 50 days to 32 days for inventory turnover, and from 49 days to 27 days for accounts receivable turnover during at year ended June 30, 2009 and 2010, respectively.  We continued to improve our working capital management to enhance our flexibility on inventory management and purchasing capability to react to changes in market prices.





Longwei entered into a letter of intent with Shangxi Jiangtong Chemicals Co., Ltd. (“Jiangtong”) in March 2011 to acquire the assets of Jiangtong’s wholly-owned subsidiary Huajie Petroleum Co., Ltd. (“Huajie”).  The Company intends to acquire the assets of a fuel storage depot in northern Shanxi Province (located in Xingyuan, Shanxi) including fuel tanks with a 100,000 metric ton storage capacity. The Company has paid a deposit of 550 million RMB (approximately USD $85.1 million) toward the full purchase price of 700 million RMB (approximately USD $108.3 million).  The assets are non-operational with no revenue-producing history and include land use rights for 98 acres of land, 100,000 tonnage
fuel tanks with accessory facilities and equipment, a special transportation railway line, and a 3,000-square-meter office building.  The acqusition is subject to final due diligence and board approval.  The Company intends to use its cash on hand, bank and other financing, and working capital assets to finance the acquisition.  The Company engaged a third-party, independent valuation firm for the appraisal of the fair market value of the assets to be acquired.  Longwei will account for the purchase of the proposed assets as an Asset Purchase

Cash Flows from Operating Activities





For the year ended June 30, 2011, net cash provided by operations was $79,670, compared to net cash used in operations of $(6,915) for the year ended June 30, 2010.  The increase of $86,585 or 1,252% in net cash provided by operations was primarily due to the increase in net income of $17,917, net of the effect for the non-cash warrant derivative liability charge, as well as the net effect of $54,545 for the decrease in advances to suppliers offset by the increase in on-hand inventory.  The ratio of advances to suppliers to inventory decreased from approximately 2:1 to 1:1 from year ended June 30, 2010 to year end June 30, 2011, but the combined balance in both inventory on-hand and advances to
suppliers remained the same level during the period at approximately $109 million.  We increased our on-hand inventory as our capacity utilization has expanded from 50,000mt to 120,000mt during the last fiscal year with operations commencing at the Gujiao facility in November 2010.  Based on the year ended June 30, 2011 inventory product mix we have approximately 51,900mt (or 17.2 million gallons) of Product on-hand or 43% of our total storage capacity of 120,000mt valued at $51,489.  Our supplier advance balance with refineries allows us to lock-in supply so that we can react quickly to purchases based on the timing of the PRC pricing levels adjustments and adjust our on-hand inventory levels accordingly.





For the year ended June 30, 2010, net cash used in operations was $(6,915) compared to net cash provided by operations of $21,863 for the year ended June 30, 2009.  The decrease in net cash provided by operations was primarily due the increases of $19,614 in inventory and $38,623 in advances to suppliers.  We increased these balances as our capacity has expanded from 50,000 mt to 120,000 mt during the fiscal year with operations commencing at the Gujiao facility in January of 2010.  Based on the year end June 30, 2010 inventory product mix we have 45,326 mt of Product on-hand or 38% of our total storage capacity of 120,000 mt valued at $33,744.  Our supplier advance balance
with refineries allows us to lock-in supply so that we can react quickly to purchases based on the timing of the PRC pricing levels adjustments and adjust our on-hand inventory levels accordingly.





Cash Flows from Investing Activities





For the year ended June 30, 2011, net cash used in investing activities was $85,015 compared to net cash used in investing activities of $7,605 for the year ended June 30, 2010.  The increase of  $77,410 or 1,018% in net cash used in investing activities was primarily due to the deposit balance of $82,984 at June 30, 2011 paid from cash on-hand for the acquisition of fixed assets. The capital expenditures for the year ended June 30, 2011 included the investment in improvements at both of our facilities.





For the year ended June 30, 2010, net cash used in investing activities was $(7,605) compared to net cash used in investing activities of $(21,816) for the year ended June 30, 2009.  The decrease in net cash used in investing activities was primarily due lower capital expenditures in the year ended June 30, 2010.  The capital expenditures for the year ended June 30, 2009 included the balance of the acquisition price of $20,800 for control of the Gujiao facility.  During the year ended June 30, 2010 we invested over $7.6 million into the renovation and retrofit of the facility, as well as improvements to our Taiyuan facility.





Cash flows from Financing Activities





For the year ended June 30, 2011, net cash provided by financing activities was $2,707 compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $17,733 for the year ended June 30, 2010.  The decrease of $15,026 was primarily related to our October 2009 Financing of preferred stock with net proceeds of $13,821 and the conversion of warrants and debt during the year ended June 30, 2010.  During the year ended June 30, 2011, the Company received $2,908 as the proceeds from the exercise of warrants.

For the year ended June 30, 2010, net cash provided by financing activities was $17,733 compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $-0- for the year ended June 30, 2009.  The increase was primarily related to our October 2009 Financing of preferred stock with net proceeds of $13,821 and the conversion of warrants and debt during the year ended June 30, 2010.





Plan of Operations





As described herein, we anticipate the completion of the approximately $108.3 million asset purchase of the assets of Haujie Petroleum by the end of the calendar year 2011.  We expect to continue to expand our customer base utilizing our distribution platforms.  Our strategy is to leverage our customer and supplier relationships to develop additional business.  We may also look for opportunities to expand our business that we consider accretive to earnings.





We will continue to operate within our business model, which allows us a competitive advantage by utilizing our large storage capacity to adjust inventory levels based on the anticipated movement of industry pricing and acts as a hedge on pricing levels.  Utilizing our excess storage capacity allows us flexibility to take advantage of pricing, supply and demand fluctuations within the marketplace.

*Purchase obligation is the balance due on the purchase of the Huajie Petroleum assets.  To date the Company has paid RMB 550 million (approximately $85.1 USD) toward the total purchase price of RMB 700 million (approximately $108.3 million USD).  The balance due by December 31, 2011 is RMB 150 million (approximately $23.2 million).





Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates





The discussion and analysis of the Company’s results of operations and liquidity and capital resources are based on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. In connection with the preparation of consolidated financial statements, the Company is required to make assumptions and estimates about future events, and apply judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses, and the related disclosures. The assumptions, estimates and judgments included within these estimates are based on historical experience, current trends and other factors the Company believes to be relevant at the time the consolidated financial
statements were prepared. On a regular basis, the accounting policies, assumptions, estimates and judgments are reviewed to ensure that the consolidated financial statements are presented fairly and in accordance with GAAP. However, because future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty, actual results could differ from the assumptions and estimates, and such differences could be material.





The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant estimates and assumptions are used for, but are not limited to: (1) inventory costs and reserves; (2) asset impairments (3) and depreciable lives of assets. Future events and their effects cannot be predicted with certainty, and accordingly, accounting estimates require the exercise of judgment.
The accounting estimates used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements will change as new events occur, as more experience is acquired, as additional information is obtained and as the Company’s operating environment changes. The Company evaluates and update these assumptions and estimates on an ongoing basis and may employ outside experts to assist with these evaluations. Actual results could differ from the estimates that have been used.





36




Significant accounting policies are discussed in Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The Company believes the following accounting policies are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating the Company’s reported financial results, as they require management to make difficult, subjective or complex judgments, and to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain.





Warrant Derivative Liability





The Company issued warrants in connection with financing instruments.  The Company analyzed the accounting treatment and classification of the warrants and summarized the effects and conclusions. The Company accounts for the warrants pursuant to FASB ASC Topic 815.





Impairment analysis for long-lived assets and intangible assets





The Company’s long-lived assets and other assets (consisting of property and equipment and purchased intangible assets) are reviewed for impairment in accordance with the guidance of the FASB Topic ASC 360, “Property, Plant, and Equipment”, and FASB ASC Topic 205 “Presentation of Financial Statements”.  The Company tests for impairment losses on long-lived assets used in operations whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable.  Recoverability of an asset to be held and used is measured
by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset.  If such asset is considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value.  Impairment evaluations involve management’s estimates on asset useful lives and future cash flows.  Actual useful lives and cash flows could be different from those estimated by management which could have a material effect on our reporting results and financial positions.  Fair value is determined through various valuation techniques including discounted cash flow models, quoted market values and third-party independent appraisals, as considered necessary. Through June 30, 2011, the Company had not experienced impairment losses on its long-lived
assets.





Inventories





Inventories consist of finished petroleum products.  Inventories are stated at the lower of cost, determined on a weighted average basis, or net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated cost of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.  When inventories are sold, their carrying amount is charged to expense in the year in which the revenue is recognized. Write-downs for declines in net realizable value or for losses of inventories are recognized as an expense in the year the impairment or loss occurs. There were no declines in net realizable value of inventory for the years ended June 30, 2011
and 2010.





Management has discussed the development and selection of these critical accounting policies with the Board of Directors and the Board has reviewed the disclosures presented above relating to them.





ITEM 7A.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK





Interest Rate Risk





The Company deposits surplus funds with Chinese banks earning daily interest. The Company does not invest in any instruments for trading purposes. The Company’s operations are not sensitive to fluctuations in interest rates.  A 10% appreciation or depreciation in interest rates in the years ended June 30,  2011 and 2010 would not have had a material impact on our interest income or interest expense.





Foreign Exchange Risk





While the Company’s reporting currency is the US Dollar, the Company’s consolidated revenues and consolidated costs and expenses are denominated in RMB. Approximately all of the Company’s assets are denominated in RMB. As a result, the Company is exposed to foreign exchange risk as the Company’s revenues and results of operations may be affected by fluctuations in the exchange rate between US Dollars and RMB. If the RMB depreciates against the US Dollar, the value of the Company’s RMB revenues, earnings and assets as expressed in the Company’s US Dollar financial statements will decline. A 10% appreciation or
depreciation in foreign exchange rates in the years ended June 30, 2011 and June 30, 2010 would not have resulted in a material loss or gain.  To date,we have not entered into any foreign exchange forward contracts or similar instruments to attempt to mitigate our exposure to change in foreign currency rates.




37


Commodity Risk





The risk associated with maintaining large quantities of inventory and amounts on advance to suppliers has the effect of locking in availability and prices the Company pays for fuel well in advance of the time the Company delivers the commodities and establishes customer pricing.  A dip in short-term prices in fuel costs may result in declining profits for the Company, which will affect the Company's ability to purchase future petroleum products and make advances to suppliers, since the Company uses its cash to purchase inventory and increase advances to suppliers. The Company manages exposure in the following ways:





The Company’s storage capacity allows management to adjust inventory levels based on the anticipated movement of industry pricing and acts as a hedge on pricing levels.  Utilizing our excess storage capacity allows us flexibility to take advantage of pricing, supply and demand fluctuations within the marketplace.  The Company’s supplier advance balance with refineries allows us to lock-in supply so that we can react quickly to purchases based on the timing of the PRC pricing levels adjustments.





The PRC pricing level adjustments control the cost basis of finished petroleum products during the year due to petroleum pricing fluctuations in the international markets.  The price of finished petroleum products is established by a PRC regulatory body under a formula based on the movement of international prices over a look-back period of 22 working days and reset when the price increases or decrease by 4%.    The Company’s inventory turnover for the year ended June 30, 2011 was approximately 41 days, which allows us to adjust inventory levels based on the anticipated movement of industry pricing to take advantage of pricing, supply and demand fluctuations within the
marketplace. When the price of petroleum is anticipated to decline we reduce our stock on-hand of inventory and then buy additional quantities from refineries based on the next anticipated price movement.  Conversely, when prices are anticipated to increase we ramp up purchase from the refineries to lock-in the lower price before the increase adjustment.  Our supplier advance balance with refineries allows us to lock-in supply so that we can react quickly to purchases based on the timing of the PRC pricing levels adjustments.  A 10% appreciation or depreciation in commodity prices in the years ended June 30, 2011 and June 30, 2010 would not have resulted in a material loss or gain for the Company because of the pricing mechanism in place in the PRC.  To date,we have not
entered into any commodity forward contracts or similar instruments to attempt to mitigate our exposure to change in commodity prices.

Longwei Petroleum Investment Holding Limited and Subsidiaries


Footnotes to the Consolidated Financial Statements


For the Years Ended June 30, 2011 and 2010





NOTE 1 - NATURE OF BUSINESS




Longwei Petroleum Investment Holding Limited (the “Company”) is an energy company engaged in the wholesale distribution of finished petroleum products in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”).  The Company’s oil and gas operations consist of transporting, storage and selling finished petroleum products, entirely in the PRC.  The Company purchases diesel, gasoline, fuel oil and solvents (the “Products”) from various petroleum refineries in the PRC. The Company’s headquarters are located in Taiyuan City, Shanxi Province (“Taiyuan”). The Company has a storage capacity for its Products of 120,000 metric tons located at its fuel
depot storage facilities in Taiyuan and in Gujiao, Shanxi (“Gujiao”), 50,000 metric tons and 70,000 metric tons of capacity respectively at each location. The Gujiao facility was acquired in January of 2009 and commenced operations in November of 2009. The Company is 1 of 3 licensed intermediaries in Taiyuan and the sole licensed intermediary in Gujiao that operates its own large scale storage tanks. The Company has the necessary licenses to operate and sell Products not only in Shanxi but throughout the entire PRC. The Company seeks to earn profits by selling its Products at competitive prices with timely delivery to coal mining operations, power supply customers, large-scale gas stations and small, independent gas stations. The Company also earns revenue under an agency fee by acting as a purchasing agent for other intermediaries in Shanxi, and through limited sales of
diesel and gasoline at two retail gas stations, each located at the Company’s facilities. The sales price and the cost basis of the Company’s products are largely dependent on regulations and retail price control measures instituted and controlled by the PRC government, as well as the price of crude oil. The price of crude oil is subject to fluctuation due to a variety of factors, all of which are beyond the Company’s control.





The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Colorado on March 17, 2000 as Tabatha II, Inc.  On October 12, 2007, the Company changed its name to Longwei Petroleum Investment Holding Limited.




Control by Principal Shareholders





The Company’s directors, executive officers and their affiliates or related parties, own beneficially and in the aggregate, the majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares of the common stock of the Company. Accordingly, the directors, executive officers and their affiliates, if they voted their shares uniformly, would have the ability to control the approval of most corporate actions, including increasing the authorized capital stock of the Company and the dissolution, merger or sale of the Company's assets or business.

On October 16, 2007, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement and agreed to issue 69,000,000 shares of its common stock in exchange for 100% of the outstanding ownership units of Longwei Petroleum Investment Holding Limited, (“Longwei BVI”) a British Virgin Islands entity.  This transaction was accounted for as a reverse acquisition. Longwei Petroleum Investment Holding Limited, formerly known as Tabatha II, Inc., did not have any operations and majority-voting control was transferred to Longwei BVI.  The transaction also required a recapitalization of Longwei BVI. Since Longwei BVI’s previous owners acquired a controlling voting interest; it was deemed the
accounting acquirer, while Longwei Petroleum Investment Holding Limited (formerly Tabatha II, Inc.) was deemed the legal acquirer.





The historical consolidated financial statements of the Company are those of Longwei BVI, and of the consolidated entities from October 16, 2007, the date of merger, and subsequent periods.  The consolidated financial statements of the Company presented for the years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 include the financial statements of Longwei Petroleum Investment Holding Limited, Longwei BVI, Longwei BVI’s subsidiary Taiyuan Yahua Energy Conversion Ltd. (“Taiyuan Yahua”), Taiyuan Yahua’s subsidiary Shanxi Zhonghe Energy Conversion Ltd. (“Zhonghe”), Zhonghe’s subsidiary Taiyuan Longwei Economy & Trading Co., Ltd., (“Taiyuan Longwei”)a subsidiary
of Taiyuan Yahua and Shanxi Heitan Zhingyou Petrochemical Co., Ltd. Intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation.




NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES




This summary of significant accounting policies of the Company is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s consolidated financial statements.  The consolidated financial statements and notes are representations of the Company’s management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements.




In June 2009 the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) established the Accounting Standards Codification ("Codification" or "ASC") as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"). Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") issued under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of GAAP for SEC registrants. Existing GAAP was not intended to be changed as a result of the Codification, and accordingly the change did not impact our financial
statements. The ASC does change the way the guidance is organized and presented.  All accounting references have been updated and therefore, FASB references have been replaced with ASC references.

The 5% ownership units are held in trust by our Chairman and CEO, Mr. Cai Yongjun, for the benefit of Taiyuan Yahua Energy Conversion Ltd. and Shanxi Zhonghe Energy Conversion Ltd.  The 5% ownership unit held in trust for the benefit of Taiyuan Longwei Economy & Trading Ltd. is held by an individual who is also an employee of the Company. This ownership structure is organized to comply with PRC
and local business ownership requirements.





Use of Estimates




The preparation of financial statements, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  We base these estimates on historical and anticipated results and trends and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, including assumptions as to future events.  These estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets
and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.  By their nature, estimates are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty.  Actual results may differ from management’s estimates.  The current economic environment has increased the degree of uncertainty inherent in these estimates and assumptions.





Revenue Recognition




In accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 13, Revenue Recognition, the Company recognizes revenues when it is realized or realizable and earned.  The Company records revenues when the following four fundamental criteria under SAB Topic 13 are met: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, (iii) the price to the customer is fixed or determinable, and (iv) collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured.  Payments received before all of the relevant criteria for
revenue recognition are satisfied are recorded as advances from customers.





The Company negotiates contracts with its customers, which may include revenue arrangements with multiple deliverables. The Company’s accounting policies are defined such that each deliverable under a contract is accounted for separately.




The Company derives the bulk of its revenue from sales of diesel, gasoline, fuel oil and solvents. These product sales revenues are recognized when customers take possession of goods in accordance with the terms of purchase order agreements that evidence agreed upon pricing and when collectability is reasonably assured. Cost of revenues for product sales include costs to purchase and transport the product to the Company and costs to deliver the goods to the customer.




Agency fee revenues consist of fees, similar to a sales commission, charged to intermediaries who lack the required licenses to purchase directly from refineries, as well as the volume purchasing capability of the Company. Agency fee revenues are recognized when there is evidence of an arrangement that specifies pricing and irrevocable receipt of product and collection has occurred. Cost of agency fee service revenues may consists of selling commission, transportation or other costs, if any, associated with the agency fee arrangement.  For years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, the Company stopped transporting or handling the products associated with the agency sales and only acted
in a broker capacity allowing other intermediaries to use its licenses to take possession of the products.  The Company considers any costs associated with Agency fee revenues immaterial and has not allocated any costs to Agency fees for the years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.




F-7




Shipping and Handling Costs




The Company’s shipping and handling costs are included in cost of goods sold for all periods presented.





Sales Returns and Allowances




The Company does not allow for the return of products and has no history of returns.




Foreign Currency Translation and Other Comprehensive Income




The accounts of the Company’s PRC subsidiaries are maintained in the PRC Renminbi (“RMB”) and the accounts of the US parent company are maintained in the US Dollar (“USD”).   The accounts of the PRC subsidiaries were translated into USD in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 830, Foreign Currency Matters, with the RMB as the functional currency for the PRC subsidiaries.  According to ASC 830, all assets and liabilities were translated at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date; stockholders’ equity is translated at historical rates; and statement of income items are translated at the
weighted average exchange rate for the period. The resulting translation adjustments are reported under other comprehensive income in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 220,Comprehensive Income, which establishes standards for reporting and displaying comprehensive income and its components in a financial statement that is displayed with the same prominence as other financial statements.




Total comprehensive income is defined as all changes in stockholders’ equity during a period, other than those resulting from investments by and distributions to stockholders (i.e. issuance of equity securities and dividends).  Generally, for the Company, total comprehensive income equals net income plus or minus adjustments for currency translation. The gains and losses resulting from the translations of foreign currency transactions and balances are reflected in the statements of income. The total comprehensive income represents the activity for a period net of related tax and was a gain of $13,329,121, a gain of $2,300,232 and a loss of $1,371,603 for the years ended June 30, 2011, 2010 and 2009
respectively.




Accumulated other comprehensive income related to the foreign currency translation in the consolidated statement of shareholders’ equity amounted to $25,519,680, $12,190,559 and $9,890,327 as of June 30, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively.  The balance sheet amounts with the exception of equity at June 30, 2011, 2010 and 2009 were translated at RMB 6.4635 to $1.00 USD, RMB 6.8086 to $1.00 USD and RMB 6.8448 to $1.00 USD, respectively.  The average translation rates applied to income and cash flow statement amounts for the years ended June 30, 2011, 2010 and 2009 were at RMB 6.6278 to $1.00 USD, RMB 6.8367 to $1.00 USD and RMB 6.8482 to $1.00 USD, respectively.





Asset Retirement Cost and Obligation




Asset retirement costs are accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 410-20, Asset Retirement Obligations.  Pursuant to ASC 410-20, the Company recognizes the fair value of the liability for an asset retirement obligation, which is recorded in the period in which it is incurred and the corresponding cost capitalized by increasing the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset. The fair value of the liability is estimated using projected discounted cash flows. In subsequent periods, the retirement obligation is accreted to its future value, which is the estimate of the obligation at the asset retirement date. The liability is accreted to its
present value each period, and the capitalized cost is depreciated or depleted over the useful lives of the respective assets.  If the liability is settled for an amount other than the recorded amount, a gain or loss would be recognized at such time.




Cash and Cash Equivalents




For purposes of the consolidated balance sheets and cash flow statements, the Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at time of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash includes cash on hand and demand deposits in accounts maintained at financial institutions and state owned banks within the PRC and with a financial institution in the United States.




Concentration of Risk




Certain financial instruments, which subject the Company to concentration of credit risk, consist of cash.  The Company maintains cash balances at financial institutions or state owned banks within the PRC, which do not provide for insurance against lost funds.  The Company also maintains cash balances at financial institutions which, from time to time, may exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limits for banks located in the US.  Balances at financial institutions or state owned banks within the PRC are not insured and amounted to $7,940,056 and $9,959,080 at June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.  As of June 30, 2011, the Company had $1,356,410 in deposits in
excess of federally insured limits in its US bank.  As of June 30, 2010, the Company did not have deposits in excess of federally insured limits in its US bank.  The Company has not experienced any losses with regard to its bank accounts and believes it is not exposed to any risk of loss on its cash in bank accounts.




F-8




The Company operates in the PRC, which may give rise to significant foreign currency risks from fluctuations and the degree of volatility of foreign exchange rates between the USD and RMB.




The Company’s operations are carried out in the PRC.  Accordingly, the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic and legal environments in the United States and PRC, and by the general state of the economy in the PRC.  The Company’s operations in the PRC are subject to specific considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in the US.  These include risks associated with, among others, the political, economic and legal environments and foreign currency exchange.  The Company’s results may be adversely affected by changes in governmental policies with
respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion and remittance abroad, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things.




For the years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, no customers accounted for 10% or greater of total revenues or accounts receivable.




For the year ended June 30, 2011, five suppliers individually accounted for more than 10% of our annual purchases, but in no case more than 19% of annual purchases.  These five suppliers collectively accounted for approximately 84% (approximately $320.9 million) of the Company’s purchases.  As of June 30, 2011, $-0- was due to these suppliers.  For the year ended June 30, 2010, five suppliers individually accounted for more than 10% of our annual purchases, but in no case more than 17% of annual purchases.  These five suppliers collectively accounted for approximately 72% (approximately $196.6 million) of the Company’s purchases.  As of June 30, 2010,
$-0- was due to these suppliers.




As of June 30, 2011, five suppliers individually accounted for more than 10% of our advances to suppliers balance, but in no case more than 16% of the total balance.  These five suppliers collectively accounted for approximately 66% (approximately $38.0 million) of the Company’s advances to suppliers balance.  As of June 30, 2010, five suppliers individually accounted for more than 10% of our advances to suppliers balance, but in no case more than 16% of the total balance.  These five suppliers collectively accounted for approximately 62% (approximately $46.3 million) of the Company’s advances to suppliers balance.  The Company has not experienced any losses with
regard to its advances to suppliers and believes it is not exposed to any risks on its advanced account balances with suppliers.




The Company is susceptible to credit risk on accounts receivable from customers and advances to suppliers.  Generally, the Company does not obtain security from its customers or vendors in support of these accounts.




Payments of dividends may be subject to some restrictions due to the fact that the operating activities are conducted in subsidiaries residing in the PRC.




Accounts Receivable




Trade receivables are recognized and carried at the original invoice amount less allowance for any uncollectible amounts. An estimate for doubtful accounts is made when collection of the full amount is no longer probable. Bad debts are written off as incurred.  The Company’s policy is to maintain reserves for potential credit losses on accounts receivable.  Management reviews the composition of accounts receivable on a monthly basis and analyzes historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns to evaluate the adequacy of these reserves.  As of June 30 2011 and 2010, the Company determined
that no reserve for accounts receivable was necessary.  The Company also has no off-balance sheet exposure related to its customers.




Advances to Suppliers




Advances to suppliers represent cash paid in advance for purchases of inventory direct from suppliers, which are petroleum refineries.  The Company locks in availability and pricing with suppliers in advance by using the Company’s cash resources.  The Company expects to maintain this level of supplier advances in the future to ensure that the Company has access to adequate supplies and timely shipments to act as a hedge based on the movement of industry pricing. The deposits are held by the Company’s suppliers to ensure that the delivery of inventory to the Company is made in a timely manner. The Company attempts to maintain a significant balance on account with suppliers with the expectation
of receiving preferential pricing and delivery from the petroleum refineries.  The balance of “advances to suppliers” is reduced and reclassified to “inventory” when inventory is received and passes quality inspection.  The Company makes the advances without collateral for such prepayments.  As a result, the company’s claims for such advances would rank only as an unsecured claim, which exposes the Company to the credit risks of the suppliers.  The Company does not foresee any potential loss with regard to these advances as a result of the suppliers being large enterprises that have significant controls placed upon them by PRC regulation.  The Company has not had to make any historical adjustments to these accounts for any deficiencies or negative impact related to the Company’s suppliers.




Inventory




Inventories are stated at the lower of cost, determined on a weighted average basis, or net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated cost of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.




When inventories are sold, their carrying amount is charged to expense in the year in which the revenue is recognized. Write-downs for declines in net realizable value or for losses of inventories are recognized as an expense in the year the impairment or loss occurs. There were no declines in net realizable value of inventory for the years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010.




F-9




Property, Plant and Equipment





Property, plant and equipment are located at the Company’s facilities in Taiyuan and Gujiao in the PRC and are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the expected useful life of the asset, after the asset is placed in service. Major repairs and betterments that significantly extend original useful lives or improve productivity are capitalized and depreciated over the period benefited.  Maintenance and repairs are generally expensed as incurred.  When plant and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts, and any gain or loss is
included in operations.




The estimated useful lives for each major category of fixed assets are as follows:




Description

Useful LivesBuildings

20 yearsMachinery and Storage Equipment

8-20 yearsRailway

20 yearsMotor Vehicles

5 years





Costs incurred during the construction and installation of the assets are initially capitalized as construction in progress and transferred into property, plant and equipment when the assets are ready for their intended use, at which time depreciation commences.  No depreciation charge is provided in respect to construction in progress.





Impairment of Long-Lived Assets





The Company applies the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment, and FASB ASC Topic 205 Presentation of Financial Statements, which addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. The Company evaluates the recoverability of its long-lived assets if circumstances indicate impairment may have occurred.  This analysis is performed by comparing the respective carrying values of the assets to the current and expected future cash flows, on an undiscounted basis, to be generated from such assets. ASC 360 requires impairment losses
to be recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets’ carrying amounts. In that event, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the long-lived assets. Loss on long-lived assets to be disposed of is determined in a similar manner, except that fair values are reduced for the cost of disposal. Based on its review, the Company believes that as of June 30, 2011 and 2010, there was no impairment of its long-lived assets.





Intangibles




The Company applies the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 350, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, to record goodwill and intangible assets.  In accordance with ASC 350, certain intangible assets are to be assessed periodically for impairment using fair value measurement techniques. Goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual basis as of the end of the Company's fiscal year, or more frequently when impairment indicators arise. The Company evaluates the recoverability of intangible assets periodically and takes into account events and circumstances which indicate that impairment exists. The Company believes that as of June 30, 2011 and
2010, there was no impairment of its goodwill.  No goodwill or intangible assets were recorded as of June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.




Land Use Rights





Land use right represents the exclusive right to occupy and use the land in the PRC for a specified contractual term.  Land use right is carried at cost, less accumulated amortization.  Amortization is calculated using the straight-line method over the life of the land use right.  In the PRC land for industrial use typical has land use rights for 50 years from date of original issuance.  The Company does not recognize land use rights for the land at its Taiyuan facility, which was contributed by the government and has 34 years remaining on its land use right.  The Company does not recognize land use rights for the land at its Gujiao facility, which was deemed
immaterial at the time of acquisition and has 6 years remaining on its land use rights.  The Company has the first right to renew its land use rights for its current business purposes.  No land use rights were recorded as of June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.




F-10




Income Taxes




Significant judgment is required in evaluating our uncertain tax positions and determining our provision for income taxes. In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes,we provide for the recognition of deferred tax assets if realization of such assets is more likely than not.  Taxation on profits earned in the PRC has been calculated on the estimated assessable profits for the year at the rates of taxation prevailing in the PRC in which the Company operates after taking into effect the benefits from any special tax credits or “tax holidays” allowed in the country of operations.




The Company accounts for income tax under the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 740,Income Taxes, which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of the events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Deferred income taxes are recognized for all significant temporary differences between tax and financial statement bases of assets and liabilities.  Valuation allowances are established against net deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.  No material deferred tax amounts were
recorded at June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.





Enterprise Income Tax





On March 16, 2007, the PRC National People’s Congress passed the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law (“New EIT Law”) which became effective on January 1, 2008.  Pursuant to the New EIT Law, a unified enterprise income tax rate of 25% and unified tax deduction standards will be applied consistently to both domestic-invested enterprises and foreign-invested enterprises.





Deferred tax assets are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis.  Deferred tax assets are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.  The effect of deferred tax assets of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.  Deferred income tax expense represents the change during the period in the deferred tax assets.  The components of the deferred tax assets are
individually classified as current based on their characteristics. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.




A provision has not been made at June 30, 2011 for US or additional foreign withholding taxes of undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries because it is the present intention of management to reinvest the undistributed earnings indefinitely in foreign operations.  Generally, such earnings become subject to US tax upon the remittance of dividends and under certain other circumstances.  It is not practicable to estimate the amount of deferred tax liability on such undistributed earnings.




The Company recognizes that virtually all tax positions in the PRC are not free of some degree of uncertainty due to tax law and policy changes by the PRC.  However, the Company cannot reasonably quantify political risk factors and thus must depend on guidance issued by current PRC officials.




Based on all known facts and circumstances and current tax law, the Company believes that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits as of June 30, 2011, is not material to its results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.  The Company also believes that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits as of June 30, 2010, if recognized, would not have a material effect on its effective tax rate.  The Company further believes that there are no tax positions for which it is reasonably possible, based on current PRC tax law and policy, that the unrecognized tax benefits will significantly increase or decrease over the next 12 months producing, individually or in the aggregate, a
material effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.





Value Added Tax




The Provisional Regulations of the PRC Concerning Value Added Tax promulgated by the State Council came into effect on January 1, 1994.  Under these regulations and the Implementing Rules of the Provisional Regulations of the PRC Concerning Value Added Tax, value added tax is imposed on goods sold in or imported into the PRC and on processing, repair and replacement services provided within the PRC.




Value added tax payable in the PRC is charged on an aggregated basis at a rate 17% for the Company’s Products on the full price collected for the goods sold or, in the case of taxable services provided, at a rate of 17% on the charges for the taxable services provided, but excluding, in respect of both goods and services, any amount paid in respect of value added tax included in the price or charges, and less any deductible value added tax already paid by the taxpayer on purchases of goods and services in the same financial year.




Taxation on profits earned in the PRC has been calculated on the estimated assessable profits for the year at rates of taxation prevailing in the municipalities in the PRC in which the Company operates.





F-11




Stock-Based Compensation




The Company accounts for stock-based compensation under FASB ASC subtopic 718-10, Compensation – Stock Compensation: Overall.  Under FASB Subtopic 718-10, the Company measures the cost of the employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award and recognizes the cost over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award, which generally is the vesting period.  The amount of cost recognized is adjusted to reflect the number of share options that are forfeited prior to vesting.





The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to non-employees of the Company in accordance with the provisions of ASC Subtopic 505-50, Equity: Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees.  All transactions in which goods or services are received in exchange for equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.  The measurement date of the fair value of the equity instrument issued is the date on which the counterparty’s performance is completed.





The Company does not currently have any formal stock option plan, but has awarded certain officers, directors and consultants stock grants.




Share-based compensation costs that have been included in operating expenses amounted to $902,145, $696,165 and $902,145 for the years ended June 30, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively.




Non-Cash Equity Transactions




Shares of equity instruments issued for non-cash consideration are recorded at the fair value of the consideration received based on the market value of services to be rendered, or at the value of the stock given, considered in reference to contemporaneous cash sale of stock.




Compensated Absences




Employees of the Company are entitled to be compensated for absences depending on job classification, length of service, and other factors.  At June 30, 2011, 2010 and 2009 the amounts were not significant.





Employee Benefit Costs




According to PRC regulations on pensions, a company contributes to a defined contribution retirement plan organized by the municipal government in the province in which the subsidiary is registered and all qualified employees are eligible to participate in the plan.  Contributions to the plan are calculated at 30% of the employees’ salaries above a fixed threshold amount.  The Chinese government is responsible for the benefit liability to retired employees.  The Company has no other material obligation for the payment of retirement beyond the annual contribution.




Advertising




The Company expenses the cost of advertising as incurred or, as appropriate, the first time the advertising takes place.  Advertising costs for the years ended June 30, 2011, 2010 and 2009 were not significant.




Research and Development




The Company expenses the cost of research and development as incurred.  Research and development costs for the years ended June 30, 2011, 2010 and 2009 were not significant.




Accounting for Derivatives




The Company evaluates stock options, stock warrants or other contracts to determine if those contracts or embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivatives to be separately accounted for under the relevant sections of ASC Topic 815-40, Derivative Instruments and Hedging: Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity.  The result of this accounting treatment could be that the fair value of a financial instrument is classified as a derivative instrument and is marked-to-market at each balance sheet date and recorded as a liability.  In the event that the fair value is recorded as a liability, the change in fair value is recorded in the
statement of operations as other income or other expense.  Upon conversion or exercise of a derivative instrument, the instrument is marked to fair value at the conversion date and then that fair value is reclassified to equity.  Financial instruments that are initially classified as equity that become subject to reclassification under ASC Topic 815-40 are reclassified to a liability account at the fair value of the instrument on the reclassification date.




Fair Value of Financial Instruments




The Company applies the provisions of accounting guidance, FASB Topic ASC 825 that requires all entities to disclose the fair value of financial instruments, both assets and liabilities recognized and not recognized on the balance sheet, for which it is practicable to estimate fair value, and defines fair value of a financial instrument as the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties.  As of June 30, 2011 and 2010 the fair value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other receivables, accounts payable and other payables approximated carrying value due to the short maturity of the instruments, quoted market prices or interest rates
which fluctuate with market rates except for related party debt or receivables for which it is not practicable to estimate fair value.





F-12




Fair Value Measurements




Effective January 1, 2009, the FASB ASC Topic 825 “Financial Instruments,” requires disclosure about fair value of financial instruments.




To clarify the definition of fair value for financial reporting, the Company applies the provisions of FASB ASC Subtopic 820-10, Fair Value Measurements (FASB Statement No. 157, Fair value Measurements), for fair value measurements of financial assets and financial liabilities and for the fair value measurements of non financial items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements.  FASB ASC Subtopic 820-10 also establishes a framework for measuring fair value and requires additional disclosures about the use of fair value measurements.





FASB ASC Subtopic 820-10 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.  When determining the fair value measurement for assets and liabilities required or permitted to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact and it considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability.





FASB ASC Subtopic 820-10 establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.  FASB ASC Subtopic 820-10 establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value.  The hierarchy gives highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and lowest priority to measurements involving significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).  The inputs or methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in these
securities.  These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below.




Level 1 – observable market inputs that are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.




Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, credit risk, etc.).




Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Company’s own assumptions in determining the fair value ofinvestments).





The carrying value of financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value is measured on a recurring or nonrecurring basis. Financial assets and liabilities measured on a non-recurring basis are those that are adjusted to fair value when a significant event occurs.  The Company had no financial assets or liabilities carried and measured on a nonrecurring basis during the reporting periods. Financial assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis are those that are adjusted to fair value each time a financial statement is prepared.  The Company had a warrant derivative liability carried at fair value on a recurring basis at June 30, 2011.




The following are the major categories of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as reported during the year ended June 30, 2011, using quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1); significant other observable inputs (Level 2); and significant unobservable inputs (Level 3).  A financial asset or liability’s classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The availability of inputs observable in the market varies from instrument to instrument and depends on a variety of factors including the type of instrument, whether the instrument is actively traded, and other characteristics particular to the transaction.  For many financial instruments, pricing inputs are readily observable in the market, the valuation methodology used is widely accepted by market participants, and the valuation does not require significant management discretion.  For other financial instruments, pricing inputs are less observable in the market and may require management judgment.

Valuation Techniques




The Company’s financial assets valued based upon Level 2 inputs are comprised of detached common stock purchase warrants, namely the stock warrants issued in connection with the Company’s October 2009 Financing.  The Company estimated the fair value of the derivative liabilities using a Lattice Pricing Model and available information that management deems most relevant.  Among the factors considered in determining the fair value of financial instruments are discounted anticipated cash flow, the cost, terms and liquidity of the instrument, the financial condition, operating results and credit ratings of the issuer or underlying company, the quoted market price and trading
history of similarly traded securities, and other factors generally pertinent to the valuation of financial instruments.





The Company did not identify any other non-recurring assets and liabilities that are required to be presented in the consolidated balance sheets at fair value in accordance with ASC 825.





Basic and Diluted Earnings Per Share




Earnings per share are calculated in accordance with the ASC Topic 260, Earnings Per Share.  Basic earnings per share is calculated dividing net earnings available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted earnings per share is based on the assumption that all dilutive convertible shares, stock options, warrants and other equity awards were converted or exercised during the period. Dilution is computed by applying the treasury stock method. Under this method, warrants and options are assumed to be exercised at the beginning of the period (or at the time of issuance, if
later), and as if funds obtained thereby were used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period.  In periods where losses are reported, the weighted-average number of common stock outstanding excludes common stock equivalents, because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.





Segment Reporting





The Company uses the management approach in determining operating segments.  The management approach considers the internal organization and reporting used by the Company’s chief operating decision maker for making operating decision, allocating resources and assessing performance as the source of determining the Company’s reportable operating segments.  The Company’s chief executive officer has been identified as the chief operating decision maker.  The Company has determined that it has two reportable operating segments as defined by FASB ASC Subtopic 280-10, Segment Reporting: Overall, which are the
wholesale distribution of petroleum products, wherein the Company takes possession of the product, and agency fees earned as a sales commission, wherein the Company does not take possession of the product.





Statement of Cash Flows




In accordance with ASC Topic 230, Statement of Cash Flows, cash flows from the Company’s operations are calculated based upon the local currencies using the average translation rates. As a result, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the consolidated statements of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the consolidated balance sheets.





Reclassification




Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2010 consolidated financial statement to conform to the 2011 consolidated financial statement presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on net income or cash flows as previously reported.





Recent Accounting Pronouncements





In June 2009, the FASB issued The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (the Codification). The Codification became the single official source of authoritative, nongovernmental U.S. GAAP. Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) under federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative U.S. GAAP for SEC registrants. The Codification is effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.





Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) ASU No. 2010-09 (ASC Topic 855), which amends Subsequent Events Recognition and Disclosures, ASU No. 2009-16 (ASC Topic 860), which amends Accounting for Transfer of Financial Assets, ASU No. 2009-05 (ASC Topic 820), which amends Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures - Overall, ASU No. 2009-08, Earnings per Share, ASU No. 2009-12(ASC Topic 820), Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share, and various other ASU’s No. 2009-2 through ASU No. 2011-07 which contain technical corrections to existing guidance or affect guidance to specialized industries or entities were recently issued.  These updates have no current
applicability to the Company or their effect on the financial statements would not have been significant, except for ASU 2011-05 (ACS Topic 220 Comprehensive Income) which will affect the presentation of Comprehensive Income and is effective for periods after December 15, 2011 and early adoption is allowed.





Other accounting standards have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standard-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date and are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

NOTE 3 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES




Commitments





The Company has no rent expense or lease commitments for the years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010.




The Company has various purchase commitments for materials, supplies and services incident to the ordinary conduct of business, generally for quantities required for the Company’s business and at prevailing market prices.  No material annual loss is expected from these commitments.




The Company has advances to several refineries for inventory in the amount of $57,756,275, which will be offset against future purchases from the suppliers.





Contingencies





In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to loss contingencies, such as legal proceedings and claims arising out of its business, that cover a wide range of matters, including, among others, government investigations, environmental matters and tax matters.  An accrual for a loss contingency is recognized when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated.  As of June 30, 2011 the Company has not recognized an accrual for any loss contingency.




Legal Matters




The Company is not involved in any legal matters except for those arising in the normal course of business.  While incapable of estimation, in the opinion of the management, the individual regulatory and legal matters in which it might be involved in the future are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.




NOTE 4 – ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE




The Company’s business operations are conducted in the PRC. During the normal course of business, the Company extends unsecured credit to its customers. Management reviews its accounts receivable on a regular basis to determine if an allowance for doubtful accounts is necessary and adequate. An estimate for doubtful accounts is made when collection of the full amount is no longer probable. Through the date of these financial statements, the Company has never experienced a significant bad debt.  As a result, no allowance for doubtful accounts has been recorded. Trade accounts receivable as of June 30, 2011 and 2010 consisted of the following:

NOTE 7 – DEPOSIT





Longwei entered into a letter of intent with Shangxi Jiangtong Chemicals Co., Ltd. (“Jiangtong”) to acquire the assets of Jiangtong’s wholly-owned subsidiary Huajie Petroleum Co., Ltd. (“Huajie”).  The Company intends to acquire the assets of a fuel storage depot in northern Shanxi Province (located in Xingyuan, Shanxi) including fuel tanks with a 100,000 metric ton storage capacity. The Company has paid a deposit of 550 million RMB (approximately USD $85.1 million) toward the full purchase price of 700 million RMB (approximately USD $108.3 million).  The assets are non-operational with no revenue-producing history and include land use rights for 98 acres of land,
100,000 tonnage fuel tanks with accessory facilities and equipment, a special transportation railway line, and a 3,000-square-meter office building.  The acqusition is subject to final due diligence and board approval.  The Company intends to use its cash on hand, bank and other financing, and working capital assets to finance the acquisition.





The Company engaged a third-party, independent valuation firm for the appraisal of the fair market value of the assets to be acquired.  Longwei will account for the purchase of the proposed assets as an Asset Purchase.  The Company will use this accounting treatment for the purchase of assets because the purchase does not meet the definition of a “Business” for a business combination.  The accounting requirements for an acquisition of net assets or equity interests that are deemed to be an Asset Purchase differs from those used for a Business Combination, which may require audited financial statements of the entity acquired.





Because the definition of a Business in Rule 11-01(d), differs somewhat from that of ASC 805, the Company has undertaken a separate analysis under Rule 11-01(d) when evaluating the reporting requirements of SEC Regulation S-X, as well as the definition of a Business in ASC 805.  Rule 11-01(d) of Regulation S-X defines a Business for determining when separate financial statements are required to be filed with the SEC.  The principle in the rule is whether there is sufficient continuity in the revenue generating activity so that pre-acquisition financial statements would be meaningful to investors.  The assets to be acquired do not meet the definition of a Business under rule
11-01(d).  FASB ASC Topic 805 defines a Business as capable of being conducted and managed as an integrated set of activities utilizing its assets and requires two essential elements - inputs and processes applied to those inputs, which together are or will be used to create outputs. The assets to be acquired have no inputs, no operating history, no employees or other attributes described above, as well as no liabilities or encumbrances and do not meet the definition of a Business under ASC 805.  Therefore, based on the Company’s evaluations performed for the purposes of determining the accounting treatment of the assets to be acquired, the assets do not constitute a Business as defined above and should be properly accounted for as Asset Purchase.

Income Taxes





On March 16, 2007, the PRC National People’s Congress passed the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law (“New EIT Law”) which became effective on January 1, 2008.  Pursuant to the New EIT Law, a unified enterprise income tax rate of 25% and unified tax deduction standards will be applied consistently to both domestic-invested enterprises and foreign-invested enterprises.





Taiyuan Yahua Energy Conversion Ltd. and Shanxi Zhonghe Energy Conversion Ltd. are taxed pursuant to the New EIT Law with a unified enterprise income tax rate of 25%. Neither company had income taxes due during the years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010.  Since these two entities have minimal business operations, the two entities are unlikely to have profits in future periods. As a result, all deferred tax assets and liabilities are deminimus, and management would have a 100% valuation allowance for all deferred tax assets.





The operating subsidiaries of Taiyuan Longwei Economy & Trading Ltd. and its subsidiary Shanxi Heitan Zhingyou Petrochemical Co. Ltd. (Gujiao operations) are taxed pursuant to the New EIT Law with a unified enterprise income tax rate of 25%.  These entities had taxes due during the years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 of $23.6 million and $16.7 million, respectively.





Longwei Petroleum Investment Holding Limited (BVI) is exempt from income tax on all sources of income pursuant to the tax law in the British Virgin Islands. However, pursuant and subsequent to the reverse merger, the parent company in U.S. may pay tax in future years.





United States of America





The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to income taxes on an entity basis on income arising in, or derived from, the tax jurisdiction in which they operate.  As the Company has no income generated in the United States, there was no tax expense or tax liability due to the Internal Revenue Service of the United States as of June 30, 21011 and 2010.





Colorado





The Company is incorporated in the State of Colorado but does not conduct business in Colorado. As the Company has no income generated in the State of Colorado, there was no corporate tax expense or tax liability due to the State of Colorado as of June 30, 2011 and 2010.





British Virgin Islands





The Company’s subsidiary, Longwei Petroleum Investment Holding Limited (BVI), is incorporated in the British Virgin Islands and, under the current laws of the British Virgin Islands, is not subject to income taxes.  As the Company has no income generated in the British Virgin Islands, there was no corporate tax expense or tax liability due to the British Virgin Islands as of June 30, 2011 and 2010.





People’s Republic of China




Pursuant to the PRC Income Tax Laws, the prevailing statutory rate of enterprise income is 25% for the Company’s PRC subsidiaries.  There is no tax provision for the years ended June 30, 2011 or June 30, 2010, respectively.

The Company did not have any significant temporary differences relating to deferred tax liabilities as of year-end.  (All of the NOL has 100% allowance.)  A valuation allowance for the deferred tax assets is recorded when it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.





Pretax earnings of a foreign subsidiary are subject to U.S. taxation when effectively repatriated.  The Company provides income taxes on the undistributed earnings of non-U.S. subsidiaries except to the extent that such earnings are indefinitely invested outside of the U.S.  As of June 30, 2011, the above accumulated adjusted earnings of non-U.S. subsidiaries was indefinitely invested.  At the existing U.S. federal income tax rate, additional U.S. income taxes would have to be provided if such earnings were remitted currently.





Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.  The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.  Deferred income tax expense represents the change during the period in the deferred tax assets and liabilities.  The components
of the deferred tax assets and liabilities are individually classified as current or non-current based on their characteristics. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.  A provision has not been made at June 30, 2011 and 2010 for U.S. or additional foreign withholding taxes of undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries because it is the present intention of management to reinvest the undistributed earnings indefinitely in foreign operations.  Generally, such earnings become subject to U.S. tax upon the remittance of dividends and under certain other circumstances.  It is not practicable to estimate the amount of deferred tax liability on such undistributed earnings.





The Company recognizes that virtually all tax positions in the PRC are not free of some degree of uncertainty due to tax law and policy changes by the government.  However, the Company cannot reasonably quantify political risk factors and thus must depend on guidance issued by current government officials.





Based on all known facts and circumstances and current tax law, the Company believes that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits as of June 30, 2011 and 2010 is not material to its results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.  The Company also believes that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits as of June 30, 2011 and 2010, if recognized, would not have a material effect on its effective tax rate. The Company further believes that there are no tax positions for which it is reasonably possible, based on the current PRC tax law and policy, that the unrecognized tax benefits will significantly increase or decrease over the next twelve months producing, individually or in the
aggregate, a material effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition or cash flows as of June 30, 2011 and 2010.





Effective January 1, 2007, the Company adopted ASC 740-10, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes(formerly “FIN 48”, an interpretation of FASB statement No. 109), Accounting for Income Taxes. The interpretation addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements.  Under ASC 740-10, the Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits
recognized in the financial statements from such a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. ASC 740-10 also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties on income taxes, accounting in interim periods and requires increased disclosures. As of June 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company does not have a liability for unrecognized tax benefits.





Value Added Tax




In accordance with the relevant taxation laws in the PRC, the normal VAT rate for the Company’s Products for domestic sales is 17%, which is levied on the invoiced value of sales and is payable by the purchaser. The Company is required to remit the VAT it collects to the tax authority. The value added tax refundable presents the VAT that the Company paid for the purchasing products and can be used to deduct the VAT related to the sale of products.

NOTE 10 – PREFERRED STOCK - OCTOBER 2009 FINANCING




On October 29, 2009 (the “Closing Date”), the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), with several investors, including institutional, accredited and non-US persons and entities (the “Investors”), pursuant to which the Company issued and sold units, comprised of its newly designated Series A Convertible Perpetual Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”), and warrants (the “Investor Warrants”), for a purchase price of US$1.10 per unit (the “October 2009 Financing”).  The Company sold 13,499,274 units in the aggregate, which included (i) 13,499,274 shares of Series A Preferred Stock and
(ii) Warrants to purchase an additional 13,499,274 shares of common stock at an exercise price of US$2.255 per share (the “Exercise Price”) with a three-year term.  Gross proceeds totaled $14,849,201, or net proceeds of $12,381,281 net of issuance costs of $2,467,920.  The Company’s placement agent also received 1,349,927 Warrants as part of their compensation under the same terms as the Investors.





The Warrants have an Exercise Price which is subject to adjustments in certain circumstances for stock splits, combinations, dividends and distributions, reclassification, exchange or substitution, reorganization, merger, consolidation or sales of assets, issuance of additional shares of common stock or equivalents.  The Warrants may not be exercised if it would result in the holder beneficially owning more than 4.9% of the Company’s outstanding common shares.




Accounting for the Warrants




The Company analyzed the Warrants in accordance with ASC Topic 815 to determine whether the Warrants meet the definition of a derivative under ASC Topic 815 and, if so, whether the Warrants meet the scope exception of ASC Topic 815, which is that contracts issued or held by the reporting entity that are both (1) indexed to its own stock and (2) classified in stockholders’ equity shall not be considered to be derivative instruments for purposes of ASC Topic 815.  The Company adopted the provisions of ASC Topic 815 subtopic 40 “Determining Whether an Instrument (or Embedded Feature) Is Indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock” (“ASC Topic 815 subtopic 40”) on July 1, 2009, which
applies to any freestanding financial instruments or embedded features that have the characteristics of a derivative, as defined by ASC Topic 815 and to any freestanding financial instruments that are potentially settled in an entity’s own common stock.  As a result of adopting ASC Topic 815 subtopic 40, the Company concluded that the Warrants issued in the October 2009 Financing should be treated as a derivative liability because the Warrants are entitled to a price adjustment provision to allow the Conversion Price to be reduced in the event the Company issues or sells any additional shares of common stock at a price per share less than the then-applicable Exercise Price or without consideration, which is typically referred to as a “down-round protection” or “anti-dilution” provision.  According to ASC Topic 815 subtopic 40, the
“down-round protection” provision is not considered to be an input to the fair value of a fixed-for-fixed option on equity shares which leads the Warrants to fail to be qualified as indexed to the Company’s own stock and then to fail to meet the scope exceptions of ASC Topic 815. Therefore, the Company accounted for the Warrants as derivative liabilities under ASC Topic 815 (codification of EITF 00-19).  Pursuant to ASC Topic 815, derivatives should be measured at fair value and re-measured at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in earnings under the other income/expense in the consolidated statement of operations at each reporting period.  During the years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company recorded a loss on warrant re-valuation of $5,446,944 and a gain on warrant re-valuation of $2,581,402, respectively.




Fair Value of the Warrants




Fair value is generally based on independent sources such as quoted market prices or dealer price quotations. To the extent certain financial instruments trade infrequently or are non-marketable securities, they may not have readily determinable fair values. The Company estimated the fair value of the Warrants and Series A Preferred Stock using a Lattice Pricing Model and available information that management deems most relevant. Among the factors considered in determining the fair value of financial instruments are discounted anticipated cash flows, the cost, terms and liquidity of the instrument, the financial condition, operating results and credit ratings of the issuer or underlying company, the quoted market
price and trading history of similarly traded securities, and other factors generally pertinent to the valuation of financial instruments. The following table provides the valuation inputs used to value the Warrants issued in connection with the October 2009 Financing.

NOTE 12 – EARNINGS PER SHARE




FASB ASC Topic 260, earnings Per Share, requires a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) computations.




The Company only has common stock and the following convertible instruments outstanding at June 30, 2011:




1.
914,643 Preferred Shares – convertible on a 1:1 basis for common shares


2.
11,542,252 October 2009 Financing Warrants – exercisable at $2.255 per share





Total number of potential additional dilutive common shares outstanding as of June 30, 2010 was 12,456,895 from outstanding convertible instruments.




F-21




Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net earnings available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted earnings per share is based on the assumption that all dilutive convertible shares, stock options, warrants and other equity awards were converted or exercised during the period. Dilution is computed by applying the treasury stock method. Under this method, warrants and options are assumed to be exercised at the beginning of the period (or at the time of issuance, if later), and as if funds obtained thereby were used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period.  In periods where losses are
reported, the weighted-average number of common stock outstanding excludes common stock equivalents, because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.




The following table sets forth the computation of basic and dilutive net income per share:

Product Sales




The Company derives the bulk of its revenue from sales of diesel, gasoline, fuel oil and solvents. The product sales revenues are recognized when customers take possession of goods in accordance with the terms of purchase order agreements that evidence agreed upon pricing and when collectability is reasonably assured. Cost of revenues for product sales include costs to purchase and transport the product to the Company and costs, if any, to deliver the goods to the customer.




Agency Fees




Agency fee revenues consist of fees, similar to a sales commission, charged to intermediaries who lack the required licenses to purchase directly from refineries, as well as the volume purchasing capability of the Company. Agency fee revenues are recognized when there is evidence of an arrangement that specifies pricing and irrevocable receipt of product and collection has occurred. Cost of agency fee service revenues consists of selling commission, transportation or other costs, if any, associated with the agency fee arrangement.  For years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, the Company stopped transporting or handling the products associated with the agency sales and only acted in a
broker capacity allowing other intermediaries to use its licenses to take possession of the products.  The Company considers any costs associated with Agency fee revenues immaterial and has not allocated any costs to Agency fees for the years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

ITEM 9.  CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE





None.





ITEM 9A.     CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES. EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES





We maintain "disclosure controls and procedures," as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"), that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and
procedures, management recognized that disclosure controls and procedure, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, our management was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.





As of June 30, 2011, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer, Cai Yongjun, and Chief Financial Officer, Michael Toups, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in our periodic reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified for each report and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal
executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.





Our conclusion that our disclosure controls were not effective was based a material weakness identified in our financial reporting.  A material weakness is a control deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. The following material weaknesses have been identified and included in management’s assessment. We found that we did not maintain effective controls over our process to ensure the timely completeness and accuracy of the preparation and review of our consolidated financial
statements This resulted in several audit adjustments to our consolidated financial statements, principally including the timely transfer of completed construction projects to property, plant and equipment, which has resulted in an adjustment to depreciation, as well as reclassification of inter-company payables and an increase of accrual for employees salary and  related expenses.





MANAGEMENT’S ANNUAL REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING





The management of Longwei Petroleum Investment Holding Limited is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the Company's principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by the Company's board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America and includes those policies and procedures that:




40




Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company;





Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and





Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.





Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Because of the inherent limitations of internal control, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be
prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.





Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2011. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control-Integrated Framework.





Based on its assessment, management concluded that, as of June 30, 2011, the Company's internal control over financial reporting is not effective based on those criteria.





Child, Van Wagoner & Bradshaw, PLLC, our independent registered public accounting firm, has audited our consolidated financial statements and the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2011. This report appears below.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM





To the Board of Directors and



Stockholders of Longwei Petroleum Investment Holding Limited



We have audited Longwei Petroleum Investment Holding Limited’s internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2011, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Longwei Petroleum Investment Holding Limited’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying “Management’s Annual Report On
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.” Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.





We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such
other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.



A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of
financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.



Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.



A material weakness is a control deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. The following material weaknesses have been identified and included in management’s assessment. The Company did not maintain effective controls over its process to ensure the timely completeness and accuracy of the preparation and review of its consolidated financial statements This resulted in several adjustments to the Company’s consolidated financial
statements, principally including timely transfer of completed construction projects to property, plant and equipment which has resulted in depreciation adjustment as well as reclassification of inter-company payables, increase of accrual for employees salary and  related expenses.

  We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets and the related consolidated statements of income and other comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows of Longwei Petroleum Investment Holding Limited and subsidiaries, and our report dated September 12, 2011, expressed an unqualified opinion.

CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING





During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011, we have taken measures to strengthen our financial controls, which have included adding additional accounting staff with greater expertise and allocating financial and human resources to strengthen our internal control structure.  We have contracted with an outside consulting firm to assist the Company in our Sarbanes Oxley (“SOX”) compliance and internal controls.  This firm has helped guide the company in its SOX compliance, including mapping, testing, analysis and assessment.  The Company has hired an internal person to work directly with the external consultants regarding internal controls.  This person’s experience included
four years of audit and business advisory work with Ernst & Young and four years of experience with an affiliate of BDO.  The Company has also contracted with an outside consultant to work with our accounting staff on our month-end, quarter-end and year-end closings and procedures.  This person has seven years experience in audit and financial reporting, including four years of experience with Ernst & Young.




These remediation efforts are designed to address the material weakness identified in our internal controls for financial reporting and to improve and strengthen our overall control environment.  We believe these actions will prevent the material weakness from recurring.  Our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that disclosure controls or internal controls over financial reporting will prevent all errors, even as the aforementioned remediation measures are implemented and further improved to address all deficiencies.  The design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about likelihood of future
events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.





The implementation of our remediation plan will require substantial expenditures, could take a significant period of time to complete, and could distract our officers and employees from the operation of our business.  However, our management believes that these remediation efforts will be completed by the end of the Company’s fiscal year ended June 30, 2012.

Family Relationships





None.





Conflicts of Interest





Certain potential conflicts of interest are inherent in the relationships between the Company’s officers and directors and the Company.





From time to time, one or more of the Company’s affiliates may form or hold an ownership interest in and/or manage other businesses both related and unrelated to the type of business that the Company own and operate. These persons expect to continue to form, hold an ownership interest in and/or manage additional other businesses which may compete with the Company’s business with respect to operations, including financing and marketing, management time and services and potential customers. These activities may give rise to conflicts between or among the interests of us and other businesses with which the Company’s affiliates are associated. The Company’s affiliates are in no way prohibited
from undertaking such activities, and neither the Company nor the Company’s shareholders will have any right to require participation in such other activities.





Further, because The Company intend to transact business with some of the Company’s officers, directors and affiliates, as well as with firms in which some of the Company’s officers, directors or affiliates have a material interest, potential conflicts may arise between the respective interests of us and these related persons or entities. The Company believes that such transactions will be effected on terms at least as favorable to us as those available from unrelated third parties.





With respect to transactions involving real or apparent conflicts of interest, The Company have adopted policies and procedures which require that: (i) the fact of the relationship or interest giving rise to the potential conflict be disclosed or known to the directors who authorize or approve the transaction prior to such authorization or approval, (ii) the transaction be approved by a majority of the Company’s disinterested outside directors, and (iii) the transaction be fair and reasonable to us at the time it is authorized or approved by the Company’s directors.





46




The Company’s policies and procedures regarding transactions involving potential conflicts of interest are not in writing.  The Company understands that it will be difficult to enforce the Company’s policies and procedures and will rely and trust the Company’s officers and directors to follow the Company’s policies and procedures.  The Company will implement the Company’s policies and procedures by requiring the officer or director who is not in compliance with the Company’s policies and procedures to remove himself and the other officers and directors will decide how to implement the policies and procedures, accordingly.





Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings





To the Company’s knowledge, during the past ten (10) years, none of the Company’s directors, executive officers, promoters, control persons, or nominees has been:





●
the subject of any bankruptcy petition filed by or against any business of which such person was a general partner or executive officer either at the time of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that time;●
convicted in a criminal proceeding or is subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses);●
subject to any order, judgment, or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction, permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting his involvement in any type of business, securities or banking activities; or●
found by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a civil action), the Commission or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law.




Director Independence





Our Board of Directors has determined that currently Douglas Cole, Gerald DeCiccio and Xue Xiaoping qualify as “independent” as the term is used in Item 407 of Regulation S-K as promulgated by the SEC and in the listing standards of The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. – Marketplace Rule 4200 and of  Section 121 and Part 8 of the NYSE Amex LLC listing standards.





Board Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight





Although we have not adopted a formal policy on whether the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer positions should be separate or combined, we have traditionally determined that it is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders to partially combine these roles.  Due to the small size of the Company, we believe it is currently most effective to have the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer positions partially combined.





Our Audit Committee is primarily responsible for overseeing our risk management processes on behalf of our Board of Directors.  The Audit Committee receives and reviews periodic reports from management, auditors, legal counsel, and others, as considered appropriate regarding our company’s assessment of risks. In addition, the Audit Committee reports regularly to the full Board of Directors, which also considers our risk profile. The Audit Committee and the full Board of Directors focus on the most significant risks facing our Company and our Company’s general risk management strategy, and also ensure that risks undertaken by our Company are consistent with the Board’s appetite for risk.
While the Board oversees our company’s risk management, management is responsible for day-to-day risk management processes. We believe this division of responsibilities is the most effective approach for addressing the risks facing our company and that our Board leadership structure supports this approach.





Meetings and Committees of the Board of Directors





Our board of directors held no formal meetings during the most recently completed fiscal year. All proceedings of the board of directors were conducted by resolutions consented to in writing by all the directors and filed with the minutes of the proceedings of the directors. Such resolutions consented to in writing by the directors entitled to vote on that resolution at a meeting of the directors are, according to the corporate laws of the State of Colorado and our bylaws, as valid and effective as if they had been passed at a meeting of the directors duly called and held.





Code of Ethics





On March 22, 2010, we adopted a Code of Ethics for our principal executive officers and senior management.  The Code is designed to deter wrongdoing and promote honest and ethical conduct; full and fair disclosure in reports and documents submitted to the SEC; compliance with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations; and the prompt internal reporting of violations of the code to appropriate persons by our senior management.




47




Audit Committee





We established an audit committee effective March 22, 2010 along with a financial expert on our audit committee.  These members are independent directors. Our audit committee consists of Douglas Cole, Gerald DeCiccio and Xue Xiaoping. Gerald DeCiccio qualifies as "audit committee financial expert," as such term is defined in Item 407(d)(5) of Regulation S-K. Our Board of Directors has adopted a written audit committee charter.





The Audit Committee assists our board in monitoring:





●
our accounting, auditing, and financial reporting processes;





●
the integrity of our financial statements;





●
internal controls and procedures designed to promote our compliance with accounting standards and applicable laws and regulations;





●
and, the appointment and evaluation of the qualifications and independence of our independent auditors.




The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the audited financial statements with management.  The audit committee has (i) discussed with the independent auditors the matters required to be discussed by the statement on Auditing Standards No. 114, (ii) reviewed the written disclosures and the letter from the independent accountant required by applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding the independent accountant’s communications with the audit committee concerning independence and (iii) discussed with the independent accountant the independent accountant’s independence.   Based on the foregoing, the audit committee
recommended to the board of directors that the audited financial statements be including in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.





Nominating Committee





We established a nominating committee effective March 22, 2010.  These members are independent directors. Our nominating committee consists of Douglas Cole, Gerald DeCiccio and Xue Xiaoping.  The purpose of the nominating committee of the board of directors is to recommend to the Board changes in Board composition as well as make recommendations with respect to size and composition of the Board, recommend to the Board on the minimum qualifications and standards for director nominees and review qualifications of potential candidates for the Board. Our board of directors has adopted a written nominating committee charter.





Compensation Committee





We established a compensation committee effective March 22, 2010.  These members are independent directors. Our nominating committee consists of Douglas Cole, Gerald DeCiccio and Xue Xiaoping. The compensation committee of the board of directors is responsible for (i) determining the general compensation policies, (ii) establishing compensation plans, (iii) determining senior management compensation and (iv) administering our stock option plans.  Our board of directors has adopted a written compensation committee charter.





Compliance With Section 16(A) Of The Exchange Act.





Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires the Company’s officers and directors, and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of a registered class of the Company’s equity securities, to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission and are required to furnish copies to the Company. To the best of the Company’s knowledge, any reports required to be filed are timely filed for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.





INDEMINIFICATION OF OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS





The Company’s directors and officers are indemnified as provided by the Colorado Statutes and the Company’s Bylaws. The Company has agreed to indemnify each of the Company’s directors and certain officers against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to the Company’s directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the provisions described above, or otherwise, The Company have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is,
therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the Company’s payment of expenses incurred or paid by the Company’s director, officer or controlling person in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, The Company will, unless in the opinion of the Company’s counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (CD&A)




The following discussion and analysis of compensation arrangements of our named executive officers for 2011 should be read together with the compensation tables and related disclosures set forth below.




We believe our success depends on the continued contributions of our named executive officers. Personal relationships are very important in our industry. Our named executive officers are primarily responsible for many of our critical business development relationships. The maintenance of these relationships is critical to ensuring our future success. Therefore, it is important to our success that we retain the services of these individuals and prevent them from competing with us should their employment with us terminate.




General Philosophy




Our overall compensation philosophy is to provide an executive compensation package that enables us to attract, retain and motivate executive officers to achieve our short-term and long-term business goals. The goals of our compensation program are to align remuneration with business objectives and performance, and to enable us to retain and competitively reward executive officers who contribute to the long-term success of the Company. We attempt to pay our executive officers competitively in order that we will be able to retain the most capable people in the industry. In making executive compensation and other employment compensation decisions, the Compensation Committee considers achievement of certain criteria,
some of which relate to our performance and others of which relate to the performance of the individual employee. Awards to executive officers are based on achievement of Company and individual performance criteria.




The Compensation Committee will evaluate our compensation policies on an ongoing basis to determine whether they enable us to attract, retain and motivate key personnel. To meet these objectives, the Compensation Committee may from time to time increase salaries, award additional stock grants or provide other short and long-term incentive compensation to executive officers and other employees.




Compensation Program & Forms of Compensation




We provide our executive officers with a compensation package consisting of base salary and participation in benefit plans generally available to other employees. In setting total compensation, the Compensation Committee considers individual and company performance, as well as market information regarding compensation paid by other companies in our industry.





Base Salary. Salaries for our executive officers are initially set based on negotiation with individual executive officers at the time of recruitment and with reference to salaries for comparable positions in the industry for individuals of similar education and background to the executive officers being recruited. We also consider the individual’s experience, reputation in his or her industry and expected contributions to the Company. Base salary is continuously evaluated by competitive pay and individual job performance. Base salaries for executives are reviewed annually or more frequently should there be significant changes in
responsibilities. In each case, we take into account the results achieved by the executive, his or her future potential, scope of responsibilities and experience, and competitive salary practices. In some circumstances our executive officers have elected to take less than market salaries.  These salaries may be increased in the future to market conditions with a competitive base salary that is in line with his or her role and responsibilities when compared to peer companies of comparable size in similar locations.




Based on our compensation philosophy, a substantial portion of our compensation rewards long-term performance of the Company and promotes executive retention. This may be delivered to our executives through restricted stock grants.




Executive Equity Ownership




We encourage our executives to hold a significant equity interest in our company. However, we do not have specific share retention and ownership guidelines for our executives.




Performance-Based Compensation and Financial Restatement




We have not considered or implemented a policy regarding retroactive adjustments to any cash or equity-based incentive compensation paid to our executives and other employees where such payments were predicated upon the achievement of certain financial results that were subsequently the subject of a financial restatement.




Compensation of Chief Executive Officer




Mr. Cai received a base salary of $7,333 for the year ended June 30, 2011.




50




Tax and Accounting Considerations




In the review and establishment of our compensation programs, we consider the anticipated accounting and tax implications to us and our executives.




Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code imposes a limit on the amount of compensation that we may deduct in any one year with respect to our chief executive officer and each of our next four most highly compensated executive officers, unless certain specific and detailed criteria are satisfied. Performance-based compensation, as defined in the Internal Revenue Code, is fully deductible if the programs are approved by stockholders and meet other requirements. We believe that grants of equity awards under may qualify as performance-based for purposes of satisfying the conditions of Section 162(m), thereby permitting us to receive a federal income tax deduction, if applicable, in connection with such
awards. In general, we have determined that we will not seek to limit executive compensation so that it is deductible under Section 162(m). However, from time to time, we monitor whether it might be in our interests to structure our compensation programs to satisfy the requirements of Section 162(m) and relevant tax implications in the PRC. We seek to maintain flexibility in compensating our executives in a manner designed to promote our corporate goals and therefore our compensation committee has not adopted a policy requiring all compensation to be deductible. Our compensation committee will continue to assess the impact of Section 162(m) and relevant tax implications in the PRC on our compensation practices and determine what further action, if any, is appropriate.
