The Company expects net income to be $2.8 - $3.0 million, up at least 133% from $1.2 million in the comparable period of 2004, and net income per diluted share of $0.18 - $0.19, based on 15.4 million diluted shares outstanding. About American Dairy American Dairy, Inc. conducts operations in the People's Republic of China ("China") through its wholly owned subsidiary Feihe Dairy. Founded in 1962, Feihe Dairy is one of the leading producers and distributors of milk powder and soybean products in China. Feihe Dairy is located in Kedong County, China and has been in operation since 2001. American Dairy also has a milk powder processing plant, Sanhao Dairy, in Kedong County, China. Certain of the statements made herein constitute forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. In such instances, actual results could differ materially as a result of a variety of factors including the risks associated with the effect of changing economic conditions in The People's Republic of China, variations in cash flow, reliance on collaborative retail partners, and on new product development, variations in new product and service development, risks associated with rapid technological change, and potential of introduced or undetected flaws and defects in products and services and other risk factors detailed in forms filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission from time to time American Dairy Reports Second Quarter 2005 Financial Results Monday August 15, 9:00 am ET BEIJING--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 15, 2005--American Dairy, Inc. (PCX:ADY - News), one of the leading producers and distributors of milk powder and soybean products in China, today announced second quarter 2005 financial results. Highlights from the second quarter of 2005 include: Net Income increased 95% to $2.8 million, or $0.18 per diluted share Revenue increased 57% to $15.1 million Operating income increased 92% to $2.8 million Bolstered milk processing capabilities with successful acquisition of assets from Royal Numico N.V. Quarter Ended June 30, 2005 Net income increased $1.4 million, or 95%, to $2.8 million in the second quarter of 2005 from $1.4 million in the second quarter of 2004. Earnings per diluted share was $0.18 compared to $0.12 in the second quarter of the previous year, with 15.4 million total shares outstanding as of June 30, 2005 compared to 11.8 million total shares outstanding as of June 30, 2004. Second quarter net income includes $0.6 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, of compensation expense related to 99,000 shares of common stock issued to employees during the quarter. The significant increase in net income reflects strong revenue growth and operating margins of 18.6% compared to 15.3% in the prior year's second quarter. Revenues for the second quarter were $15.1 million, an increase of $5.5 million or 57% compared to $9.6 million in the second quarter of 2004. Several factors contributed to the Company's continued revenue growth. Sales quantities of products such as milk powder with nucleotides, rice powder and CPP series, drove a 17% increase in overall sales quantities to 4.0 million kilograms compared to 3.4 million kilograms in the second quarter of 2004. American Dairy successfully executed price increases on several product lines, which also contributed to the revenue growth during the quarter. Gross profit increased $2.4 million, or 48%, to $7.5 million from $5.1 million in the second quarter of 2004, while gross margin decreased to 49.9% compared to 53.1% in the comparable period of last year, reflecting increased costs of raw materials, specifically fat free powder, whey and sugar. Income from operations increased 92% to $2.8 million from $1.5 million in the second quarter of 2004. Accordingly, operating margin increased 330 basis points to 18.6% from 15.3% last year, despite a 30% increase in expenses due to distribution costs commensurate with revenue growth and advertising efforts, packaging costs related to the redesign and relaunch of the Company's CPP and Ca+Zn products as well as the recognition of depreciation in the second quarter of 2005, which was not yet recognized in the prior year's period. American Dairy did not incur income tax during the second quarter of 2005, as the company is currently exempt from corporate income tax through 2009. Additionally, the Company receives economic incentives from certain Chinese provinces in the form of VAT tax rebates, which positively impacted other revenues by $0.3 million during the quarter. Leng You Bin, Chief Executive Officer and President of American Dairy, stated, "During the second quarter we strengthened our production capacity through the Royal Numico acquisition, which allows us continued growth as we bring the Feihe brand to new parts of China in addition to our extensive network throughout 25 provinces. We also invested in advertising and marketing to successfully drive revenue growth and, in fact, during the quarter our Feihe trademark was named one of China's most identifiable brands." Six Months Ended June 30, 2005 Net income in the first half of 2005 increased $2.8 million, or 107%, to $5.5 million from $2.6 million in the first six months of 2004. Earnings per share increased 61% to $0.35 from $0.22 during the first half of 2004. Revenue increased $11.5 million, or 65%, to $29.3 million from $17.8 million in the first six months of 2004, reflecting a 10% increase in overall sales quantity as well as successful price increases. Income from operations increased 128% or $3.1 million to $5.4 million in the first half of 2005 compared to $2.4 million in the comparable period of 2004. This resulted in operating margins of 18.6% compared to 13.4% last year. "There is a growing demand for milk products in China, as per capita dairy consumption continues to rise. We are uniquely positioned to capitalize on this opportunity given our existing leadership, scale and sales network in this industry. Our operating results thus far in 2005 speak to our success in this regard and in optimizing the business as we grow the top and bottom line," continued Leng You Bin. Balance Sheet As of June 30, 2005, the Company had $7.4 million of cash compared to $6.6 million at December 31, 2005, and debt outstanding of $3.3 million as of June 30, 2005 compared to $0.6 million at December 31, 2004. Guidance As of August 15, 2005, American Dairy is reiterating prior guidance for the fiscal year 2005. Management expects revenue of $73.0-$79.5 million and net income of $11.0-$12.0 million, or $0.73-$0.79 per diluted share. About American Dairy, Inc.
