Earnings per diluted share increased 72% to $0.31 in the second quarter of 2006 from $0.18 in the second quarter of the previous year. During this period, diluted shares outstanding increased to 17.1 million from 15.4 million in the second quarter of 2005.

 China continued to drive revenue growth in the second quarter. Sales quantities increased 53% to 6.1 million kilograms in the second quarter of 2006, up from 4.0 million kilograms in the prior year period, driven by increased sales quantities of major products. Specifically, sales volume for the Company's milk power with nucleotides increased 168%, rice powder increased 89%, CPP cpp - C preprocessor.  series increased 37%, and the Ca+Zn product increased 25% as compared to the second quarter of 2005.

Gross profit increased $5.7 million, or 75%, to $13.2 million from $7.5 million in the second quarter of 2005. Gross margin of 50.7% compared to 49.9% in the prior year's period reflects the successful ramp-up of a new processing facility, which allows the Company to process all whey whey

. Previously, the Company had to purchase processed whey from other providers in China, which was more expensive.

Income from operations increased $1.5 million, or 52% to $4.3 million from $2.8 million in the second quarter of 2005, despite increased distribution and general and administrative expenses. The Company's distribution expenses, which grew 88% during the second quarter on a year over year basis, reflect continued advertising and promotional efforts, as well as transportation costs associated with improving distribution capacity. General and administration expenses, which increased 149% during the second quarter of 2006 compared to the prior year's period, reflect additional administrative and business expansion activities.

The Company benefited from $1.2 million of other income in the second quarter of 2006 due to VAT rebates received from the Heilongjiang Province. American Dairy, Inc. recognizes VAT rebates at the time of receipt and these rebates are made from the government on a strictly voluntary basis, as an economic incentive to the Company.

Interest and finance costs were $179,000 during the second quarter, related to additional convertible debt issued in 2006.

Leng You Bin explained, "In the second quarter, we continued to benefit from VAT rebates, which the local province has consistently provided to us as an economic incentive. The timing and amount of this payment is discretionary, although it is tied to our sales volume by product category. Our goal is to constantly enhance the health of the Chinese people The following is a '''list of famous Chinese-speaking/writing people.
