THE THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2008 AND 2007   1. MANAGEMENT'S
REPRESENTATION OF INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION  The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared by Longwei Petroleum
Investment Holding Limited, Inc. without audit pursuant to the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Certain information
and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted as
allowed by such rules and regulations, and management believes that the
disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.
 These financial statements include all of the adjustments, which in the
opinion of management are necessary to a fair presentation of financial position
and results of operations.  All such adjustments are of a normal and
recurring nature. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for
a full year.  2. SUMMARY
OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES  This summary of significant accounting policies of the Company is
presented to assist in understanding the Companys financial statements.
 The 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 financial statements.  Description
of Business  Longwei Petroleum Investment Holding Limited (we, us, our,
Longwei) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Colorado on March 17,
2000, under the name of Tabatha II, Inc. We changed our name to Longwei
Petroleum Investment Holding Limited on October 12, 2007. We were formed as a
blind pool or blank check company whose business plan was to seek to acquire
a business opportunity through completion of a merger, exchange of stock, or
other similar type of transaction. In furtherance of our business plan, we
voluntarily elected to become subject to the periodic reporting obligations of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 by filing a registration statement on Form
10-SB.  Prior to October 16, 2007, our only business activities were the
organizational activities described above, including registration under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and efforts to locate a suitable business
opportunity for acquisition. On October 16, 2007, the date of the closing of the
Share Exchange, we acquired all of the issued and outstanding common stock of
Longwei Petroleum Investment Holding Limited (Longwei BVI), a British Virgin
Islands corporation incorporated on April 3, 2006.  Longwei BVI owns all of
the issued and outstanding stock of Taiyuan Yahua Energy Conversion Co., Ltd.
(Taiyuan Yahua), a Chinese limited liability company, which in turn is the
sole shareholder of Taiyuan Longwei Economy & Trading
Co., Ltd. (Taiyuan Longwei), a Chinese limited liability company.
  We issued 69,000,000 shares of common stock in the share exchange
transaction for 100% of the ownership of Longwei BVI. As a result of the share
exchange transaction, Longwei BVI and its subsidiaries became our wholly owned
subsidiaries.   - 8 -    LONGWEI PETROLEUM INVESTMENT HOLDING LIMITED NOTES
TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR
THE THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2008 AND 2007  2.    SUMMARY
OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)  Description of
Business - continued  The former stockholders of Longwei BVI acquired 92% of our issued
and outstanding common stock as a result of closing the share exchange
transaction.  Therefore, although Longwei BVI became our wholly-owned
subsidiary, the transaction was accounted for as a recapitalization of Longwei
BVI, whereby Longwei BVI is deemed to be the accounting acquirer and is deemed
to have adopted our capital structure.  All operating activities are carried out through our wholly-owned
Chinese subsidiary, Taiyuan Longwei Economy & Trading Co., Ltd. (Taiyuan
Longwei), which was incorporated in 1995.  The operating company is
located in Taiyuan City, China.  We purchase diesel, gasoline, fuel oil and
kerosene from various suppliers. As an intermediary, we seek to earn profits by
buying diesel, gasoline, fuel oil and kerosene at competitive prices and selling
them to other wholesalers. In addition, we also earn revenues by acting as a
purchase agent where we charge an agency fee, a fee which is charged to
wholesalers who do not have a license to purchase directly from refineries.
Further, the company owns a gas station located on its property where it
generates additional profit and revenue. The cost of our products is largely
dependent on 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.
When sudden and significant increases occur in the cost of fuel and lubricant
products, we may not be able to pass on these increases through timely price
increases to our customers. The timing of passing these costs to our customers
can significantly affect our margins. The affect of lower crude oil prices,
after the sale for a short time of higher priced inventory on hand at the time
of the price decrease, reduces the cost of the products which, in turn, improves
profit margins. Fuel oil is a liquid petroleum product that is burned in a
furnace or boiler for the generation of heat or used in an engine for the
generation of power. Solvents are unrefined petroleum products used in paint,
dry-cleaning solvents, solvents for cutback asphalts and solvents for the rubber
industry. We transport and market these products to other wholesale buyers. Our
primary customers are large-scale gas stations, which represent 60% of our
sales. These gas stations, which purchase diesel and gasoline from us, are
located in Taiyuan City in the Shanxi Province of China. Our second largest
group of customers is the coal plants and power supply companies that use our
fuel oil for heat and power, along with our solvents, which comprise 30% of our
business. Our third largest customers are the small independent gas stations.
These represent 10% of our total sales, and purchase gasoline and diesel. Our
operating company is located at No. 30 Guanghua Avenue, Xiaojingyu Xiang, Wan
Bailin District, Taiyuan City, P.C. 030024, Shanxi Province, China, and our
phone number is (86) 351-6527-366.   (a)    Basis
of Preparation  The
financial statements of the Company are prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America and include the
accounts of the Company. This basis of accounting differs in certain material
respects from that used for the preparation of the books and records of the
Company, which are prepared in accordance with the accounting principles and the
relevant financial regulations applicable to enterprises with limited
liabilities, established in the PRC (PRC GAAP) the accounting standards used
in the place of their domicile.   - 9 -    LONGWEI PETROLEUM INVESTMENT HOLDING LIMITED NOTES
TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR
THE THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2008 AND 2007  2.    SUMMARY
OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)  (b)    Economic
and Political Risks  The
Company's operations are conducted in the PRC. Accordingly, the Company's
business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced by the
political, economic and legal environment in the PRC, and by the general state
of the PRC economy.  The
Company's operations in the PRC are subject to special considerations and
significant risks not typically associated with companies in North America and
Western Europe. These include risks associated with, among others, the
political, economic and legal environment and foreign currency exchange. The
Company's results may be adversely affected by changes in the political and
social conditions in the PRC, and by changes in governmental policies with
respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency
conversion, remittances abroad, and rates and methods of taxation.  (c)    Principles
of Consolidation   The
accompanying financial statements include Longwei Petroleum Investment Holding
Limited, its wholly owned subsidiary, Longwei Petroleum Investment Holding
Limited, a British Virgin Island corporation, its wholly owned subsidiary,
Taiyuan Yahua Energy Conversion Co., Ltd., a Chinese limited liability company,
which owns 100% of the operating subsidiary, Taiyuan Longwei Economy &
Trading Company, Ltd., a Chinese limited liability company.  Intercompany
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.  (d)    Property,
Plant and Equipment  Property,
plant and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation.
Depreciation is provided over the assets' estimated useful lives, using the
straight-line method. Estimated useful lives of the property, plant and
equipment are as follows:  Buildings


20
yearsHeavy machinery
and production equipment


8- 20
yearsRailway


20
yearsMotor
vehicles


5
years  The
cost and related accumulated depreciation of assets sold or otherwise retired
are eliminated from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in the
statement of income. The cost of maintenance and repairs is charged to the
statement of income as incurred, whereas significant renewals and betterments
are capitalized.   - 10 -   LONGWEI PETROLEUM INVESTMENT HOLDING LIMITED NOTES
TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR
THE THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2008 AND 2007   2.    SUMMARY
OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)  (e)    Accounting
for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets  The
long-lived assets held and used by the Company are reviewed for impairment
whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of
assets may not be recoverable. It is reasonably possible that these assets could
become impaired as a result of technology or other industry changes.
Determination of recoverability of assets to be held and used is by comparing
the carrying amount of an asset to future net undiscounted cash flows to be
generated by the assets. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the
impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying
amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed
of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to
sell.  There
was no impairment of long-lived assets as of September 30, 2008.  (f)    Inventories  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 three months ended September 30, 2008.  (g)
   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.  (h)    Cash
and Cash Equivalents  The
Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with original
maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash deposit in PRC
banks are not insured by any government agency or entity.  (i)    Advances
to Suppliers  Advances
to suppliers represent the cash paid in advance for purchasing of inventory
items from suppliers.  (j)    Fair
Value of Financial Instruments  The
Company's financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts
receivable, prepaid taxes, advances to suppliers, other current assets, taxes
payable, accounts payable and advances from customers. Management estimates that
the carrying amounts of the non related party financial instruments approximate
their fair values due to their short-term nature.  - 11 -   LONGWEI PETROLEUM INVESTMENT HOLDING LIMITED NOTES
TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR
THE THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2008 AND 2007   2.    SUMMARY
OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)  (k)    Revenue
Recognition  The
Company derives the bulk of its revenue from sales of gasoline, diesel, solvent
oil and fuel oil. 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 collectibility is
reasonably assured. Cost of revenues for product sales include costs to purchase
and transport the product to the Company, costs to deliver the goods to the
customer and depreciation on product storage and delivery equipment.  Agency
service revenue consists of fees charged to small fuel distributors who lack the
required licenses to purchase directly from large refineries. The Company
allocates a portion of its purchasing quota to these customers for a fee similar
to a sales commission. Agency service revenue is recognized when there is
evidence of an arrangement that specifies pricing and irrevocable allocation of
a portion of the Companys purchase quota and collection has occurred. Cost of
agency service revenues consists primarily of selling commissions.  (l)    Foreign
Currency Translation  The functional currency of the Company is RMB and RMB is
freely convertible into foreign currencies. The Company maintains its financial
statements in the functional currency. Monetary assets and liabilities
denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into
the functional currency at rates of exchange prevailing at the balance sheet
date. Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency
are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing at
the dates of the transactions. Exchange gains or losses arising from foreign
currency transactions are included in the determination of net income for the
respective periods.  For financial reporting purposes, the financial statements of the
Company which are prepared using the functional currency have been translated
into United States dollars. Assets and liabilities are translated at exchange
rates at the balance sheet dates and revenue and expenses are translated at the
average exchange rates and stockholders equity is translated at historical
exchange rates. Any translation adjustments resulting are not included in
determining net income but are included in foreign exchange 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 appreciates against the U.S. dollar, revenue and
expenses would be lower than they would have been if there were no fluctuations
in the currencies. The exchange rates adopted are as follows:  2008
2007Period
end RMB exchange rate
6.7899

6.859Average
period RMB exchange rate
6.8377

7.276  No
representation is made that the RMB amounts could have been, or could be,
converted into U.S. dollars at the rates used in translation.    - 12 -   LONGWEI PETROLEUM INVESTMENT HOLDING LIMITED NOTES
TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR
THE THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2008 AND 2007   2.    SUMMARY
OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)  (m)    Use
of Estimates  The
preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles 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 periods. Management makes these estimates using the best
information available at the time the estimates are made; however actual results
could differ materially from those estimates.  (n)    Income
Taxes  The
company has implemented SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," which
provides for a liability approach to accounting for income taxes. Deferred
income taxes result from the effect of transactions that are recognized in
different periods for financial and tax reporting purposes. The company has
recorded no deferred tax assets or liabilities as of September 30, 2008, since
nearly all differences in tax bases and financial statement carrying values are
permanent differences.  (o)    Recent
Accounting Pronouncements  In
December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141R,
"Business Combinations" ("SFAS No. 141R"). SFAS No. 141R amends
SFAS 141 and provides revised guidance for recognizing and measuring
identifiable assets and goodwill acquired, liabilities assumed, and any
noncontrolling interest in the acquiree. It also provides disclosure
requirements to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature
and financial effects of the business combination. It is effective for fiscal
years beginning on or after December 15, 2008 and will be applied
prospectively. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS
No. 141R on our consolidated financial statements. In
December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, "Noncontrolling Interests in
Consolidated Financial Statements  an amendment of ARB No. 51" ("SFAS
No. 160). SFAS No. 160 requires that ownership interests in subsidiaries held
by parties other than the parent, and the amount of consolidated net income, be
clearly identified, labeled, and presented in the consolidated financial
statements. It also requires once a subsidiary is deconsolidated, any retained
noncontrolling equity investment in the former subsidiary be initially measured
at fair value. Sufficient disclosures are required to clearly identify and
distinguish between the interests of the parent and the interests of the
noncontrolling owners. It is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after
December 15, 2008 and requires retroactive adoption of the presentation and
disclosure requirements for existing minority interests. All other requirements
shall be applied prospectively. We are currently evaluating the impact of
adopting SFAS No. 160 on our consolidated financial statements.  In
March 2008, FASB issued Financial Accounting Standards No. 161, Disclosure
about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - an amendment to FASB
Statement No. 133. The use and complexity of derivative instruments and
hedging activities have increased significantly over the past several years.
Constituents have expressed concerns that the existing disclosure requirements
in FASB Statement No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities, do not provide adequate information about how derivative and
hedging activities affect an entitys financial position, financial performance,
and cash flows. Accordingly, this Statement requires enhanced disclosures about
an entitys derivative and  - 13 -   LONGWEI PETROLEUM INVESTMENT HOLDING LIMITED NOTES

and thereby improves the transparency of financial reporting. This Statement is
effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods
beginning after November 15, 2008.  In
May 2008, the FASB issued Statement No. 162, The Hierarchy of Generally
Accepted Accounting Principles.  This statement identifies the sources
of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles to be
used in the preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that
are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP)
in the United States (the GAAP hierarchy).  This statement is effective 60
days following the SECs approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board amendments to AU Section 411, the Meaning of Present Fairly in
Conformity With Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. In May 2008, the FASB issued Statement No. 163Accounting for
Financial Guarantee Insurance Contractsan interpretation of FASB Statement No.
60.The premium revenue recognition approach for a financial
guarantee insurance contract links premium revenue recognition to the amount of
insurance protection and the period in which it is provided. For purposes of
this statement, the amount of insurance protection provided is assumed to be a
function of the insured principal amount outstanding, since the premium received
requires the insurance enterprise to stand ready to protect holders of an
insured financial obligation from loss due to default over the period of the
insured financial obligation.  This Statement is effective for financial
statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008.  3.    ACCOUNTS

 2. MANAGEMENTS
DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS  DISCLAIMER REGARDING
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS  Certain
statements in this Form 10-Q, which are not statements of historical fact, are
what are known as "forward-looking statements," which are basically statements
about the future. For that reason, these statements involve risk and uncertainty
since no one can accurately predict the future. Words such as "plans,"
"intends," "hopes," "seeks," "anticipates," "expects," and the like, often
identify such forward looking statements, but are not the only indication that a
statement is a forward-looking statement. Such forward-looking statements
include statements concerning our plans and objectives with respect to our
present and future operations, and statements which express or imply that such
present and future operations will or may produce revenues, income or profits.
These and other factors may cause our actual results to differ materially from
any forward-looking statement.  We caution you not to place undue reliance
on these forward-looking statements.  Although we base these
forward-looking statements on our expectations, assumptions, and projections
about future events, actual events and results may differ materially, and our
expectations, assumptions, and projections may prove to be inaccurate. The
forward-looking statements speak only as of the date hereof, and we expressly
disclaim any obligation to publicly release the results of any revisions to
these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the
date of this filing.  Overview  Longwei Petroleum Investment Holding Limited (we, us, our,
Longwei) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Colorado on March 17,
2000, under the name of Tabatha II, Inc. We changed our name to Longwei
Petroleum Investment Holding Limited on October 12, 2007. We were formed as a
blind pool or blank check company whose business plan was to seek to acquire
a business opportunity through completion of a merger, exchange of stock, or
other similar type of transaction. In furtherance of our business plan, we
voluntarily elected to become subject to the periodic reporting obligations of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 by filing a registration statement on Form
10-SB.  Prior to October 16, 2007, our only business activities were the
organizational activities described above, including registration under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and efforts to locate a suitable business
opportunity for acquisition. On October 16, 2007, the date of the closing of the
Share Exchange, we acquired all of the issued and outstanding common stock of
Longwei Petroleum Investment Holding Limited (Longwei BVI), a British Virgin
Islands corporation incorporated on April 3, 2006.  Longwei BVI owns all of
the issued and outstanding stock of Taiyuan Yahua Energy Conversion Co., Ltd.
(Taiyuan Yahua), a Chinese limited liability company, which is in turn the
sole shareholder of Taiyuan Longwei Economy & Trading Co., Ltd. (Taiyuan
Longwei), a Chinese limited liability company.   We issued 69,000,000
shares in the share exchange transaction for 100% of the ownership of Longwei
BVI. As a result of the share exchange transaction, Longwei BVI and its
subsidiaries became our wholly owned subsidiaries.  Taiyuan Yahua was incorporated on August 11, 2006.  The
operating subsidiary, Taiyuan Longwei, is located in Taiyuan City, China, and
was established in 1995 as a Chinese limited liability company.  We
purchase diesel, gasoline, fuel oil and kerosene from various suppliers. As a
licensed intermediary, we seek to earn profits by buying diesel gasoline fuel
oil and kerosene at competitive prices and selling them to other wholesalers. In
addition, we also earn revenue by acting as a purchase agent where we charge an
agency fee, a fee which is charged to other wholesalers who do not have a
license to purchase directly from refineries.   The cost of our
products is largely dependent on 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. When sudden and significant increases occur in the cost of fuel and
lubricant products, we may not be able to pass on these increases through timely
price increases to our customers. The timing of passing these costs through to
our customers can significantly affect our margins. The affect of lower crude
oil prices, after the sale for a short time of higher priced inventory on hand
at the time of the price decrease, reduces the cost of  - 18 -   the products which in turn improves profit margins. Fuel oil is a
liquid petroleum product that is burned in a furnace or boiler for the
generation of heat or used in an engine for the generation of power.
 Solvents are unrefined petroleum products used in paint, dry-cleaning
solvents, solvents for cutback asphalts and solvents for the rubber industry. We
transport and market these products to other wholesale buyers.  Our primary
customers are large-scale gas stations, which represent 60% of our sales and
which are located in Taiyuan City in the Shanxi Province of China.  They
primarily buy diesel and gasoline.  Our second largest group of customers
is coal plants and power supply companies which use our fuel oil for heat and
power along with our solvents; these comprise 30% of our business.  Our
third largest customer is the small, independent gas station which represents
10% of our total sales.  These stations buy gasoline and diesel from
us.  We currently have 14 storage tanks that allow us to store 50,000
metric tons of our products. In addition, we own our own rail system to
transport our products to our customers.  We have been granted a Finish Oil Wholesale license which allows
our company to engage in the wholesale business of gasoline, fuel oil and diesel
oil.  This license is granted by the Peoples Republic of China.  In
addition, we also have a special license for Dangerous Chemical Products
Businesses that allows us to handle gasoline and diesel oil.  The Finish
Oil Wholesale License allows us to engage in the business of these products.
There is no expiration date on this license.  The Dangerous Chemical
Products Businesses license is renewed every three years.  The Peoples
Republic of Chinas constitution states that all mineral and oil resources
belong to the State.  Without these licenses, we would not be allowed to
sell our products.   Results of Operations  Revenue  The following table shows the different components comprising our

100%  For the three months ended September 30, 2008, revenues were
$44,475,486, an increase of $7,986,814 or approximately 21.9% as compared to
$36,488,672 for the same period in September 30, 2007. This increase was the
result of stronger overall demand for petroleum products.  Diesel sales
were $25.539 million or approximately 8.854 million gallons, an increase of
$7.203 million or approximately .351 million gallons, and approximately 39.3%
sales increase in the three month period year ending September 30, 2008,
compared to $18.336 million or approximately 8.503 million gallons for the year  - 19 -   ending September 30, 2007. Gasoline sales were $16.987 million or
approximately 5.993 million gallons, an increase of $4.447 million or
approximately .341 million gallon increase, and approximately 35.4% sales
increase, compared to gasoline sales of $12.540 million or approximately 5.652
million gallons for the three months ending September 30, 2007.
  These increases were mainly the result of greater purchases by our
existing customers due to the continued growth of Shanxi Province.  The
increase of petroleum products for the three months ending September 30, 2008
was mainly due to the following factors: the population in China in general has
become wealthier; as a result, the demand for petroleum has increased and the
economy in Shanxi Province where the Company's major customers are continued to
experience growth. Management expects growth for the fiscal year 2009 to remain
strong due to (i) continued strong growth in the China economy, (ii) a continued
improvement in the wealth of its citizens, and (iii) business strategy of
increasing storage for our products.  For the three months ended September
30, 2008, 50% of our customers were large-scale gas stations located in Taiyuan
City in the Shanxi Province, compared to 60% for the three months ended
September 30, 2007.   Our second largest group of customers is coal
plants and power supply companies which use our diesel, gasoline and fuel oil to
generate heat and power this group provided 40% of our business in 2008 compared
to 30% in 2007. This group of customers will continue to remain strong as our
local economy continues to grow and new power plants are built. We anticipate
that in the fiscal year 2009 this group will represent 55% to 60% of our sales,
as the company will focus on this particular customer segment due to larger bulk
sales. Our third largest customer is the small, independent gas station which
represents 10% of our total sales.  These stations buy gasoline and diesel
from us.  This group will continue to remain strong as more cars are being
used for transportation in Shanxi Province. Additionally, the impact of
favorable currency exchange rates resulted in an increase of approximately $4.2
million in revenues, or 9.5%, as the RMB continued to appreciate against the
dollar.  Agency fees decreased by 55.5%, a decrease of approximately $2.429
million.  Agency fee revenues were $1.949 million for the three months
ended September 30, 2008, compared to $4.378 million in the same period of 2007.
Agency fees are fees from companies not possessing the required license to buy
direct from refineries.   We purchase petroleum on their behalf and
arrange delivery for them.  The China government continues to grant
licenses to other wholesalers to buy direct. Thus, we anticipate that agency
fees will be reduced further in the future unless we are able to obtain new
customers that want to go direct but do not have the required license.  Cost of Goods Sold  Cost of
goods sold for the three months ended September 30, 2008 increased by $9.395
million or 36.9 %, to $34.835 million as compared to $25.435 million for the
prior quarter of 2007. This increase was mainly attributable to the increase of
sales revenue.  The
following table illustrates the items constituting our cost of goods sold for
the three months ending September 30, 2008 and September 30, 2007.  (All

Margin  Our gross profit margin was 21.7% for the three months ended
September 30, 2008, compared to 29.6% for the three months ended September 30,
2007. The decrease was the result of the decline in agency fees which represent
the greatest profit for the company due to the fact it is a service, and no
purchases have to be made for this revenue. Agency fee profits declined by
approximately 2.2 million or approximately 53.7%.  Additionally, the gross
margins on diesel were approximately 14.8% for the quarter ending September 30,
2008 compared to 24.9% in quarter ending September 30, 2007.  The gross
margins on gasoline were approximately 22.9% in the quarter ending September 30,
2008 compared to 22.1% for the same quarter in 2007, improving slightly. The
decrease of diesel margins was the result of the company locking in fuel prices.
The company made advance to suppliers of approximately $34.792 million in the
quarter ending September 30, 2008 compared to $28.327 million in September 30,
2007. The risk associated with maintaining huge quantities of inventory and
amounts of advances to suppliers has the effect of locking in prices.  We
pay for fuel well in advance of the time we deliver commodities and establish
customer prices.  Therefore, our gross margins will vary considerably from
period to period, based on short-term prices of petroleum products. Management
does not provide any type of hedging activity in order to reduce this risk;
however management monitors petroleum prices in an effort to maintain
profitability.  Selling General and Administrative Expenses  Selling, general and administrative expenses were $2.167 million
for the quarter ending September 30, 2008, a $1.810 million increase, compared
to $357,434 for the same period in 2007.   The increases for  the
three month  period was due to the increased costs associated with the
recapitalization of the company between Longwei Petroleum Investment Holding and
Tabatha II, and the addition of 15 new sales personnel and staff to support the
companys growth.  Depreciation and Amortization  Depreciation and amortization expenses were $96,466 for the
quarter ending September 30, 2008, an increase of $6,832 over the depreciation
expense of $89,634 for the quarter ending September 30, 2007.  Income Tax Expenses  We incurred income tax expenses of $1,964,629 for the quarter
ending September 30, 2008, a decrease of $1,472,949 or approximately 42.8%,
decrease versus $3,437,578 for the quarter ending September 30, 2007. This
decrease in taxes was the result of a decline in profit resulting from less
agency fees. The company is governed by the income tax laws of China. The China
statutory tax rate is 30% and the local tax rate is 3%.  Net Income  We earned a net income of $5,490,477 for the quarter ended
September 30, 2008, a decrease of $1,528,293 or approximately 21.8% as compared
to $7,018,770 for the quarter ending September 30, 2007. This was primarily due
to the decline of agency fees profit of $2,169,286 in quarter ending September
30, 2008. Agency fees are fees from companies not possessing the required
license to buy direct from refineries.   We purchase petroleum on
their behalf and arrange delivery for them.  The China government continues
to grant licenses to other wholesalers to buy direct. Thus, we anticipate that
agency fees will be reduced further in the future unless we are able to obtain
new customers that want to go direct but do not have the required license. This
decline in agency fees will have a negative impact on net income and margins in
future periods.  - 21 -    Net Income Margin  Net income margin for the quarter ending September 30, 2008 was
approximately 12.3% compared to approximately 19.2% for the quarter ending
September 30, 2007. This decrease as described above was largely the result of
agency fee profits and revenues declining in the period. Management anticipates
that net income margin will remain in the 12 to 15% profit range due to increase
of costs associated with being a public company and the decline in agency
fees.  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 are located in China.  The
operating subsidiaries purchase all products and render services in China, and
receive payment from customers in China using RMB as the functional currency.
 We do not engage in currency hedging.  We incurred a foreign currency translation adjustment of
$1,070,650 for the quarter ending September 30, 2008 as compared with the
foreign currency translation adjustment of $781,958 for the quarter ending
September 30, 2007. On July 21, 2005, China reformed its foreign currency
exchange policy, revalued 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 different
exchange rates in translating RMB into U.S. dollars in our financial statements
for quarter ending September 30, 2008. We used an exchange rate of 6.79 for
assets and liabilities and used the average exchange rate of 6.84 for revenues
and expenses, compared to the exchange rate of 7.51 in 2007 for assets and
liabilities and 7.56 as the average rate used in calculating revenue and
expenses. Historical exchange rates for shareholders equity were used.  Assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates at the
balance sheet dates and revenue and expenses are translated at the average
exchange rates 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 exchange 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. The
exchange rates adopted are as follows for quarter ending September 30, 2008 and

$8,010,731 compared to cash and cash equivalents of $6,558,490 in period ending
September 30, 2007. This was the result of the convertible note the company did

6,558,490  Operating Activities:  Net cash used in operating activities was $750,892for
the quarter ending September 30, 2008, compared in the net cash used of $269,568
for the three month period ending September 30, 2007. This was largely the
result of increases in advances to suppliers to prepare for the anticipated
stronger demand from our customers.  This was partially offset by the
decrease in accounts receivables.  Investing Activities  Net cash used in investing activities was $721 in quarter ending
September 30, 2008 compared to $15,622 in September 30, 2007.  Financing Activities:    We have no material commitments for capital expenditures as of
September 30, 2008.  Critical Accounting Policies  The preparation of financial statements, in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, requires our
management to make assumptions, estimates and judgments that affect the amounts
reported in the financial statements, including the notes thereto, and related
disclosures of commitments and contingencies, if any. We consider our critical
accounting policies to be those that require the more significant judgments and
estimates in the preparation of financial statements, including the following: Basis of Consolidation - The consolidated financial
statements of the Company and its subsidiaries are prepared in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and
include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All material
inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the
consolidation.  Inventories -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 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 quarter ending September 30, 2008.  Revenue
Recognition  The Company derives the bulk of its revenue from the trading of
gasoline, diesel, kerosene and fuel oil, and also has revenues from agency
service and transportation service.  In accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC")
Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, Revenue Recognition ("SAB 104"), the Company
recognizes revenue when the following  - 23 -   fundamental criteria 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.  Foreign Currency Translation - The functional currency of
the Company is RMB and RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currencies.
The Company maintains its financial statements in the functional currency.
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the
functional currency are translated into the functional currency at rates of
exchange prevailing at the balance sheet date. Transactions denominated in
currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional
currency at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions.
Exchange gains or losses arising from foreign currency transactions are included
in the determination of net income for the respective periods.  Use of Estimates-The preparation of the financial
statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 periods.
Management makes these estimates using the best information available at the
time the estimates are made; however actual results could differ materially from
those estimates.   Recent
Accounting Pronouncements  In
December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141R, "Business Combinations"
("SFAS No. 141R"). SFAS No. 141R amends SFAS 141 and provides
revised guidance for recognizing and measuring identifiable assets and goodwill
acquired, liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree.
It also provides disclosure requirements to enable users of the financial
statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business
combination. It is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after
December 15, 2008 and will be applied prospectively. We are currently
evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS No. 141R on our consolidated
financial statements. In
December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, "Noncontrolling Interests in
Consolidated Financial Statements  an amendment of ARB No. 51" ("SFAS
No. 160). SFAS No. 160 requires that ownership interests in subsidiaries held
by parties other than the parent, and the amount of consolidated net income, be
clearly identified, labeled, and presented in the consolidated financial
statements. It also requires once a subsidiary is deconsolidated, any retained
noncontrolling equity investment in the former subsidiary be initially measured
at fair value. Sufficient disclosures are required to clearly identify and
distinguish between the interests of the parent and the interests of the
noncontrolling owners. It is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after
December 15, 2008 and requires retroactive adoption of the presentation and
disclosure requirements for existing minority interests. All other requirements
shall be applied prospectively. We are currently evaluating the impact of
adopting SFAS No. 160 on our consolidated financial statements. In
March 2008, FASB issued Financial Accounting Standards No. 161, Disclosure
about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - an amendment to FASB
Statement No. 133. The use and complexity of derivative instruments and
hedging activities have increased significantly over the past several years.
Constituents have expressed concerns that the existing disclosure requirements
in FASB Statement No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities, do not provide adequate information about how derivative and
hedging activities affect an entitys financial position, financial performance,
and cash flows. Accordingly, this Statement requires enhanced disclosures about
an entitys derivative and hedging activities and thereby improves the
transparency of financial reporting. This Statement is effective for financial
statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November
15, 2008.  In
May 2008, the FASB issued Statement No. 162, The Hierarchy of Generally
Accepted Accounting Principles.  This statement identifies the sources
of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles to be
used in the preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities  - 24 -   that
are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP)
in the United States (the GAAP hierarchy).  This statement is effective 60
days following the SECs approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board amendments to AU Section 411, the Meaning of Present Fairly in
Conformity With Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. In May 2008, the FASB issued Statement No. 163Accounting for
Financial Guarantee Insurance Contractsan interpretation of FASB Statement No.
60.The premium revenue recognition approach for a financial
guarantee insurance contract links premium revenue recognition to the amount of
insurance protection and the period in which it is provided. For purposes of
this statement, the amount of insurance protection provided is assumed to be a
function of the insured principal amount outstanding, since the premium received
requires the insurance enterprise to stand ready to protect holders of an
insured financial obligation from loss due to default over the period of the
insured financial obligation.  This Statement is effective for financial
statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008.  Seasonality  Our operating results and operating cash flows historically have
been subject to seasonal variations. Our revenues are usually higher in the
first half of the year than in the second half of the year because of the
increased demand for gasoline and diesel during and around the Chinese spring
festival.  Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements  We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.     - 25 -   QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE 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.  Foreign Exchange Risk  While our reporting currency is the U.S. Dollar, all of our
consolidated revenues and consolidated costs and expenses are denominated in
RMB. All of our assets 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. If the RMB
depreciates against the U.S. Dollar, the value of our RMB revenues, earnings and
assets as expressed in our U.S. Dollar financial statements will decline. We
have not entered into any hedging transactions in an effort to reduce our
exposure to foreign exchange risk.  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.     - 26 -   CORPORATE STRUCTURE  The chart below depicts our corporate structure. As depicted below, we own 100% of the capital stock of Longwei
BVI.  Longwei BVI incorporated in the British Virgin Islands in April 2006,
owns 100% of the capital stock of Taiyuan Yahua, and Taiyuan Yahua owns 100% of
the capital stock of Taiyuan Longwei, the operating subsidiary.  Taiyuan Yahua was established in August 2006 as a
Chinese limited liability company.  Taiyuan Longwei was established as a
Chinese limited liability company in July 1995.  As of October 16, 2007,
the date of the closing of the Share Exchange Agreement, all of our operations
are conducted by and through Taiyuan Longwei.   [corpstructures1.gif]         - 27 -   ITEM
3. CONTROLS
AND PROCEDURES  The
Securities and Exchange Commission defines the term disclosure controls and
procedures to mean a company's controls and other procedures of an issuer that
are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports
that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is 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 an issuer in the reports
that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is
accumulated and communicated to the issuers management, including its principal
executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar
functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required
disclosure.  The Company maintains such a system of controls and procedures
in an effort to ensure that all information which it is required to disclose in
the reports it files under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded,
processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified under the
SEC's rules and forms and that information required to be disclosed is
accumulated and communicated to principal executive and principal financial
officers to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure. As
of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation,
under the supervision and with the participation of our chief executive officer
and principal accounting officer, of the effectiveness of the design and
operation of our disclosure controls and procedures.  Based on this
evaluation, our chief executive officer and principal accounting officer
concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide
reasonable assurance of achieving the objectives of timely alerting them to
material information required to be included in our periodic SEC reports and of
ensuring that such information is recorded, processed, summarized and reported
with the time periods specified.  Our chief executive officer and principal
accounting officer also concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures
were effective as of June 30, 2008 to provide reasonable assurance of the
achievement of these objectives.  There
was no change in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during
the quarter ended September 30, 2008, that has materially affected, or is
reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over
financial reporting.     - 28 -   PART
