JILIN, China--(BUSINESS WIRE)--China Organic Agriculture, Inc.

The Company also reported earnings of approximately $7 million, an increase of approximately $6.6 million or 1,156% over the comparable period the previous year.
CNOA said the Company’s record growth in Q3 2007 was the result of its successful initiatives to increase production capacity, production output and consumer brand awareness, as well as new distribution agreements with some of China’s largest retail distribution systems.
“China Organic continues to prove that we are a growth driven company with a commitment to building value for our shareholders,” said Huizhi Xiao, Chairman of China Organic Agriculture. “The future looks very positive for China Organic and we feel confident that our business strategies will sustain our exceptional growth in the months and years ahead.”

The increase of $7.5 million in earnings for the period is due to the expansion of the Company’s sales and distribution channels, which it achieved while keeping operating expenses steady.

(“COAL”), which was incorporated in the British Virgin Islands in 2006, which owns Jilin Songyuan City ErMaPao Green Rice Ltd (ErMaPao), established under the laws of the People’s Republic of China in 2002.
