The decline was driven primarily by a decrease in averageselling price (21.6%) resulting from lower raw material prices. Revenues were$38.9 million at the Company's Dalian, China facility and revenues from theFayetteville, TN and Telford, UK facilities combined accounted for $8.8million. Volume at the Company's Dalian facility increased 9.5% as compared tothe third quarter 2008 due to increased 3G related demand, increasedgovernment spending on basic infrastructure projects in China and continuedexpansion into the utility market. On a consolidated basis, the Companyexperienced a slight decline of 3.7% in metric tons sold.

Gross profit for the third quarter of 2009 was $15.2 million compared to$16.9 million in the third quarter of the prior year, a decrease of $1.7million or 10.1%. Gross margin as a percentage of revenues increased to 31.8%from 26.5% in the same period of the prior year. Gross margin at the Company'sDalian, China facility increased from 32.3% in the third quarter of 2008 to34.6% in the third quarter of 2009 as the Company cycled through lower costinventory. The gross margin at the Company's Fayetteville facility increasedfrom 11.3% to 20.1% year over year mostly as a result of cost savingsinitiatives implemented by management. This gross margin represented thehighest quarterly gross margin level achieved at the Fayetteville facilitysince the October 2007 acquisition of Copperweld Bimetallics.

Operating expenses for the third quarter 2009 remained relatively flat forthe third quarter 2009 compared to the prior year's period at approximately$4.6 million. On a percentage basis, operating expenses in the third quarter2009 increased 230 basis points to 9.6% from 7.3% in the prior year's quarter,primarily a result of lower sales in the third quarter of 2009.

Operating income was $10.6 million in the third quarter of 2009 compared$12.2 million in the third quarter of 2008, a decrease of $1.6 million or13.6%.

On a percentage basis,operating income in the third quarter 2009 increased 300 basis points to 22.2%from 19.2% in the prior year's quarter.

Profit before tax for Dalian and Fayetteville and Telford combined was$10.9 million and $0.2 million respectively in the third quarter of 2009. Theloss at the Fushi Copperweld parent company level was $1.0 million primarilydue to interest expenses on the high yield notes, non-cash stock-basedcompensation, non-cash charges related to changes in fair value of derivativeliabilities related to the convertible notes conversion options, as well asprofessional fees and outside service expenses and partially offset by gainfrom the repurchase of the convertible notes. On a consolidated basis, profitbefore tax was $10.1 million and we recognized a net tax expense of $0.9million, reflecting an 8.9% effective tax rate.

Dalian Fayetteville Parent & Telford Company Consolidated Profit (Loss) before income tax 10,947,268 218,310 (1,070,657) 10,094,921 Income tax expense (credit) 1,788,366 -- (888,378) 899,988 Profit after income tax 9,194,933 Net income on a GAAP basis of $9.2 million increased $0.2 million, or 2.2%,from $9.0 million for the same period in 2008. GAAP net income marginincreased to 19.3% from 14.2% for the same period in 2008.

GAAP earnings per diluted share were $0.31 per diluted share compared with$0.31 per diluted share in the third quarter of 2008. GAAP resultsincluded :(1) $2.1 million charge related to changes in fair value ofderivative liability -- conversion option, (2) $3.8 million of gain on theconvertible notes extinguishment (3) $0.2 million of stock-based compensationcost. Excluding the non-cash gains and expenses related to changes in fairvalue of derivative liability and share-based compensation, adjusted non-GAAPnet income was $7.5 million, or $0.26 per diluted share in the third quarterof 2009.

During the quarter, the Company generated $11.1 million of cash flows fromoperations, which represented a $27.3 million increase over the same period inthe previous year. The Company's cash position at the end of the third quarterwas $60.0 million and the Company's debt position was $39.0 million comparedto debt of $67.3 million at December 31, 2008. Accounts receivables atSeptember 30, 2009 were $69.1 million compared to $49.8 million on December 31,2008, an increase of 38.8%. This increase is primarily a result of extendedcredit terms in 2009 to certain credible customers that have long-standingbusiness relationships with us in order to capture increased market share.

Mr. Li Fu, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Fushi Copperweld,commented, "We are extremely pleased with achieving yet another successfulquarter for the Company. Despite the global slowdown, we were able to realizeprofit at all our facilities worldwide. Our China operations remained strongand we are optimistic that our results will continue to improve as we realizefurther benefits from the Chinese government's stimulus package and 3G networkinfrastructure build out. We have been prudently expanding our Chineseoperations and believe we are well positioned to capitalize on the increasingdemand. Market conditions in North America and Europe have stabilized, anddespite flat sales our Fayetteville and Telford operations achievedprofitability for the first quarter this year, a clear indication that costsavings initiatives have successfully lowered the breakeven levels atFayetteville and Telford."

Mr. Fu continued, "We are especially pleased with the addition of LindaZhang as Chief Financial Officer and the expertise she has brought at apivotal time in our strategic growth plan. I am also very proud and pleasedwith the overall performance of our entire management team and theirindividual contributions will only serve to strengthen our team in total. I amconfident that our current team will take us to the next level and build astronger Company."

Fourth Quarter 2009 Outlook and Macro Trends

In the 2009 fourth quarter, the Company expects adjusted fully dilutedearnings per share before the impact of non-cash expense related to stock-based compensation between $0.26 and $0.30 based on an estimated weightedaverage diluted share count of approximately 29.4 million shares. Thisexpectation is based on an effective tax rate at the consolidated level of 8%.

Mr. Fu continued, "As we look forward, we continue to be optimistic andexpect continued growth in demand for CCA-based telecom products due toChina's 3G infrastructure investments. We also continue to believe that theelectrical utility market presents significant opportunities as stimuluspackages increase national transmission and distribution spending and we prepthe market for the introduction of 8,200 metric tons of CCS cladding capacityby the end of first quarter 2010. At our Fayetteville and Telford facilities,we have successfully lowered the breakeven level at our Fayetteville facilityand have recalibrated costs to match economic conditions. With marketsstabilizing, we are now in a stronger position to pursue incremental growthopportunities."

Accounting for derivative liability -- conversion option

Effective January 1, 2009, the Company adopted the provisions of EITFIssue 07-5 "Determining Whether an Instrument (or Embedded Feature) Is Indexedto an Entity's Own Stock", which is effective for financial statements forfiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008 and which replaced the previousguidance on this topic in EITF Issue 01-6. As a result, from January 1, 2009,the Company is required to separately account for the conversion optionembedded in the Company's $5,000,000 convertible notes as a derivativeinstrument liability, carried at fair value and marked-to-market each period,with changes in the fair value each period charged or credited to income. Inthe third quarter of 2009, the Company recorded non-cash charges to income forchanges in the fair value of these derivative liabilities of $2.1 million, or$0.07 per diluted share. There is no impact on periodic cash flows.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Our net income was materially impacted by certain non-cash expensesincluding stock-based compensation and change in the fair value of derivativeliabilities related to the conversion in our outstanding convertible notes. Inthe third quarter 2009, we also recognized a one-time non-cash gain onredemption of convertible notes. To supplement our consolidated financialstatements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, we useEPS as adjusted for the impact of non-cash expenses related to stock-basedcompensation and the change in the fair value of derivative liabilitiesrelated to the conversion option in our outstanding convertible notes. TheseCompany-defined adjusted measures are being provided because managementbelieves they are useful in analyzing the underlying operating performance ofthe business. These measures may be inconsistent with similar measurespresented by other companies and should only be used in conjunction with ourresults reported according to accounting principles generally accepted in theUnited States. A reconciliation of earnings per share as reported andoperating income as reported to adjusted non-GAAP earnings per share andadjusted non-GAAP operating income follows:

2009 Q3 2008 Q3 GAAP Net Income 9,194,932 9,046,950 Non-cash expense: Change in fair value of derivative liability - conversion option 2,058,352 -- Gain on CB extinguishment (3,842,935) -- Stock-based compensation 179,527 523,474 Total non-cash expense (1,605,056) 523,474 Provision for income tax (61,039) (177,981) Adjusted to Non-GAAP Net income 7,528,837 9,392,443 GAAP Earnings per share: Basic 0.33 0.33 Diluted 0.31 0.32 Non-GAAP Earnings per share: Basic 0.27 0.34 Diluted 0.26 0.33 Explanation of Redemption of Convertible Notes
