DALIAN CITY, China, Sept. 28, 2011 /PRNewswire-Asia-FirstCall/ -- BEFUT International Co., Ltd. (the "Company" or "BEFUT") (OTCBB:BFTI.ob - News), a developer, manufacturer and distributor of wire and cable products in China, today announced its financial results for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011.

Financial Highlights


•Revenue increased 77.9% to $55.6 million for fiscal 2011 compared to $31.3 million for 2010
•Gross profit increased 79.7% to $14.9 million for fiscal 2011 compared to $8.3 million for fiscal 2010

Mr. Hongbo Cao, Chairman and CEO, commented, "We are pleased to report strong growth in revenue and net income for fiscal 2011. Our product strategy, marketing strategy and strong R&D have been key drivers to our success. We continue to grow our traditional cable business, but are particularly focused on increasing sales of our higher margin products such as carbon fiber composite cable, submarine cable and certain "new energy" cables, including cable for wind and solar energy. We have been awarded a number of new patents and now have 17 approved patents and 45 pending, which provide us an important competitive advantage."

Mr. Cao continued, "We have established a first class customer base encompassing many of the largest conglomerates in China—spanning ship building, nuclear power, mining, petrochemical and other industries. Given our proven track record, established brand and premier customer base, we look forward to expanding our sales by aggressively adding new sales reps and new sales offices across China, in addition to new initiatives underway to grow our international sales."

Mr. Cao concluded, "In April 2011, we began construction on the second phase of our new Changxing Island facility, which we expect to complete in 2012. We plan to add nearly 90,000 square meters of additional floor space with production capacity of approximately 6,700 km of cable per year, which would allow a maximum output of approximately $235 million upon completion. We look forward to leveraging this capacity to satisfy the growing demand from our customers. We believe we have the customer base, technological, manufacturing and research and development capabilities to take advantage of the growing domestic and international cable and wire markets in the coming years."

Revenue for the fourth quarter ended June 30, 2011 was $15.4 million, compared to $11.9 million for the fourth quarter ended June 30, 2010. The increased revenue reflects growing demand across all product lines from new and existing customers and increased capacity to accommodate the demand. Gross profit was $4.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011, as compared to $3.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010. Operating income was $1.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011, as compared to $0.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010. Net income for the three months ended December 31, 2010 was $4.5 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, compared to net income of $2.1 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, for the same period last year.

Revenue for the twelve months ended June 30, 2011 was $55.6 million, compared to $31.3 million for the twelve months ended June 30, 2010.
