Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles of the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the combined financial statements and accompanying notes. Management believes that the estimates utilized in preparing its financial statements are reasonable and prudent. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

The Company’s certain accounting policies require higher degrees of judgment than others in their application. These include the recognition of revenue and earnings from system contracting projects under the percentage-of-completion method, determining the fair value of stock based compensation and the allowance of doubtful accounts and warranty expenses. Management evaluates all of its estimates and judgments on an on-going basis.

Revenue recognition

Revenue is recognized when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company as follows:

Revenue from system contracting projects are recognized using the percentage-of-completion method of accounting and, therefore, take into account the costs, estimated earnings and revenue to date on contracts not yet completed. Revenue recognized is that percentage of the total contract price that cost expended to date bears to anticipated final total cost, based on current estimates of costs to complete. Contract costs include all direct material and labor costs and those indirect costs related to contract performance, such as indirect labor, supplies, tools, repairs, and depreciation costs. Selling, general, and administrative costs are charged to expense as incurred. At the time a loss on a contract becomes known, the entire amount of the estimated ultimate loss is recognized in the consolidated financial statements. Claims for additional contract costs are recognized upon a signed change order from the customer or in accordance with paragraphs 62 and 65 of the AICPA’S Statement of Position ("SOP") 81-1, "Accounting for Performance of Construction - Type and Certain Production - Type Contracts" ("SOP 81-1").

Revenue from product sales is recognized when the goods are delivered and title has passed. Product sales revenue is presented net of a value-added tax (VAT). All of the Company’s products that are sold in the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”) are subject to a Chinese value-added tax at a rate of 17% of the gross sales price. This VAT may be offset by VAT paid by the Company on raw materials and other materials included in the cost of producing their finished product.

CHINA FIRE & SECURITY GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

March 31, 2009

(Unaudited)

Revenue from the rendering of Maintenance Services is recognized over the service period on a straight-line basis.

In accordance with SFAS 48, “Revenue Recognition when Right of Return Exists,” revenue is recorded net of an estimate of markdowns, price concessions and warranty costs. Such reserve is based on management’s evaluation of historical experience, current industry trends and estimated costs.

Enterprise Wide Disclosure

Almost all the Company’s products (fire detecting products, fire alarm control device, and water mist/sprinkler systems) are sold via system contracting projects or as part of the integrated products sales. The composition of these three types of products varies significantly from project to project, both in quantity and in dollar amounts. Although the Company could provide a breakdown of sales contribution for the Company’s own products for each project, it is almost impossible to provide revenues for each of the products when the revenue from each project is recognized based on percentage of completion. More importantly, the revenues from the Company’s own products do not accurately reflect the Company’s overall financial performance. The Company is a system contracting projects provider rather than product vendors who sell their own products directly or through channels. Therefore, it is not practical to separately disclose the revenues from external customers for each of the products.

The Company’s chief operating decision-makers (i.e. chief executive officer and his direct reports) review financial information presented on a consolidated basis, accompanied by disaggregated information about revenues by business lines for purposes of allocating resources and evaluating financial performance. There are no segment managers who are held accountable for operations, operating results and plans for levels or components below the consolidated unit level. Based on qualitative and quantitative criteria established by SFAS 131, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information”, the Company considers itself to be operating within one reportable segment.

Shipping and handling

Costs related to shipping and handling are included in cost of revenue pursuant to EITF 00-10 “Accounting for Shipping and Handling Fees and Costs.”

Foreign currency translation

Asset and liability accounts at March 31, 2009 were translated at 6.83 RMB to $1.00 as compared to 6.82 RMB at December 31, 2008. Equity accounts were stated at their historical rate. The average translation rates applied to income statements accounts for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 were 6.83 RMB and 7.15 RMB, respectively. Cash flows are also translated at average translation rates for the period, therefore, amounts reported on the statement of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the balance sheet.

Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the results of operations as incurred. Historically, the Company has not entered any currency trading or hedging transactions, although there is no assurance that the Company will not enter into such transactions in the future.

Plant and equipment

Plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets with 5% residual value. Depreciation expense amount to $200,767 and $169,388 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Estimated useful lives of the assets are as follows:

		Useful Life
Buildings and improvements		40 years
Transportation equipment		5 years
Machinery		10 years
Office equipment		5 years
Furniture		5 years

Construction in progress represents the costs incurred in connection with the construction of buildings or additions to the Company’s plant facilities. No depreciation is provided for construction in progress until such time as the assets are completed and placed into service. Interest incurred during construction is capitalized into construction in progress. All other interest is expensed as incurred.

The cost and related accumulated depreciation of assets sold or otherwise retired are eliminated from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in the consolidated statements of income. Maintenance, repairs and minor renewals are charged directly to expense as incurred. Major additions and betterment to buildings and equipment are capitalized.

Long-term assets of the Company are reviewed at least annually, more often if circumstances dictate, to determine whether their carrying value has become impaired. The Company considers assets to be impaired if the carrying value exceeds the future projected cash flows from related operations. The Company evaluates the periods of depreciation and amortization to determine whether subsequent events and circumstances warrant revised estimates of useful lives. As of March 31, 2009, the Company expects these assets to be fully recoverable.

The Company's operations are carried out in the PRC. Accordingly, the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic and legal environments in the PRC, and by the general state of the PRC's economy. The Company's operations in the PRC are subject to specific considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in the North America and Western Europe. These include risks associated with, among others, the political, economic and legal environments and foreign currency exchange. The Company's results may be adversely affected by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion and remittance abroad, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things.

The Company has no major customer who represents over 10% of the Company’s sales for the three months ended March 31, 2009. The Company has one major customer who represents approximately 15% of the Company’s sales for the three months ended March 31, 2008. Accounts receivable from this customer was $0 as of March 31, 2008.

Cash and cash equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents also include unrestricted time deposits.

Restricted cash

Restricted cash represents cash required to be deposited in a separate bank account subject to withdrawal restrictions by its system contracting projects and product sales customers to guarantee its contracts will be performed.

Fair value of financial instruments

SFAS 107, Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments, defines financial instruments and requires fair value disclosures for those instruments. SFAS 157, Fair Value Measurements, adopted January 1, 2008, defines fair value, establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement and enhances disclosures requirements for fair value measures. The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for receivables and payables qualify as financial instruments and are a reasonable estimate of fair value because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and their current market rate of interest. The three levels are defined as follow:

Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the assets or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instruments.

Level 3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value.

The investment in joint ventures is also a financial instrument. The Company invested $167,010 (RMB 1,140,000) to Hubei Shou An Changjiang Fire Protection Co., Ltd for 19% ownership and invested $1,000,000 to King Galaxy Investments Limited for 5% ownership. Total investment as of March 31, 2009 amounted to $1,167,010. Since there is no quoted or observable market price for the fair value of similar long term investments in joint ventures, the Company then used the level 3 inputs for its valuation methodology. The determination of the fair value was based on the cost of the capital contribution to the joint ventures.

The Company did not identify any assets and liabilities that are required to be presented on the balance sheet at fair value in accordance with SFAS 157.

Intangible assets

Land use rights - All land in the People’s Republic of China is owned by the government. However, the government grants the user “land use rights”. The Company acquired land use rights in 2001 and the land use rights expire in 2051. The costs of these rights are being amortized over fifty years using the straight-line method.

Technology rights - In May 2007, the Company acquired two technology rights to manufacture fire protection products and the costs of these rights are being amortized over ten years using the straight-line method.

Intangible assets consist of the following:

	March 31, 2009 (Unaudited)			December 31, 2008
Land use rights	$	770,789		$	770,789
Technology rights		608,745			608,745
Accumulated amortization		(282,734	)		(263,085	)

Amortization expense amounted to $18,819, and $18,848 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Intangible assets of the Company are reviewed annually, more often when circumstances require, to determine whether their carrying value has become impaired. The Company considers assets to be impaired if the carrying value exceeds the future projected cash flows from related operations. The Company also evaluates the periods of amortization to determine whether subsequent events and circumstances warrant revised estimates of useful lives. As of March 31, 2009, the Company expects these assets to be fully recoverable.

Income taxes

The Company reports income taxes pursuant to SFAS 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” SFAS 109 requires the recognition of deferred income tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between income tax basis and financial reporting basis of assets and liabilities. Provision for income taxes consist of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes. Deferred tax assets amounted to $67,824 and $0 as of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively.

The Company adopted FASB Interpretation 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”), as of January 1, 2007. A tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the “more likely than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosures, and transition.

The Company’s operations are subject to income and transaction taxes in the United States and in the PRC jurisdictions. Significant estimates and judgments are required in determining the Company’s worldwide provision for income taxes. Some of these estimates are based on interpretations of existing tax laws or regulations. The ultimate amount of tax liability may be uncertain as a result.

The Company does not anticipate any events which could cause change to these uncertainties.

The charge for taxation is based on the results for the year as adjusted for items, which are non-assessable or disallowed. It is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.

Deferred tax is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method in respect of temporary differences arising from differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax basis used in the computation of assessable tax profit.

In principal, deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences, and deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probably that taxable profit will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilized. Deferred tax is calculated using tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realized or the liability is settled. Deferred tax is charged or credited in the income statement, except when it is related to items credited or charged directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is also dealt with in equity. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the Company intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.

Value Added Tax

Enterprises or individuals who sell products, engage in repair and maintenance or import and export goods in the PRC are subject to a value added tax in accordance with Chinese laws. The value added tax standard rate is 17% of the gross sales price. A credit is available whereby VAT paid on the purchases of semi-finished products or raw materials used in the contract and production of the Company’s finished products can be used to offset the VAT due on sales of the finished product.

VAT on sales and VAT on purchases amounted to $980,467 and $793,772 for the three months ended March 31, 2009. VAT on sales and VAT on purchases amounted to $964,361 and $742,064 for the three months ended March 31, 2008, respectively. Sales and purchases are recorded net of VAT collected and paid as the Company acts as an agent for the government. VAT taxes are not impacted by the income tax holiday.

Stock-based compensation

The Company adopted SFAS 123R “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” at the beginning of 2006, which defines a fair-value-based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and transactions in which an entity issues its equity instruments to acquire goods and services from non-employees. Stock compensation granted to non-employees has been determined in accordance with SFAS 123R and the EITF 96-18, "Accounting for Equity Instruments that are issued to Other than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling Goods or Services", as the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measured.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - An Amendment of SFAS No. 133.” SFAS 161 seeks to improve financial reporting for derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures regarding the impact on financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. To achieve this increased transparency, SFAS 161 requires (1) the disclosure of the fair value of derivative instruments and gains and losses in a tabular format; (2) the disclosure of derivative features that are credit risk-related; and (3) cross-referencing within the footnotes. SFAS 161 became effective on January 1, 2009 and the adoption of SFAS 161 did not impact the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS 162, "The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.” SFAS 162 is intended to improve financial reporting by identifying a consistent framework, or hierarchy, for selecting accounting principles to be used in preparing financial statements that are presented in conformity with U.S. GAAP for nongovernmental entities. SFAS 162 is effective 60 days following the SEC's approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board amendments to AU Section 411, "The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles." The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of this statement on the results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

In June 2008, the FASB issued EITF 07-5 “Determining whether an Instrument (or Embedded Feature) is indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock”. This Issue is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is not permitted. Paragraph 11(a) of SFAS 133 specifies that a contract that would otherwise meet the definition of a derivative but is both (a) indexed to the Company’s own stock and (b) classified in stockholders’ equity in the statement of financial position would not be considered a derivative financial instrument. EITF 07-5 provides a new two-step model to be applied in determining whether a financial instrument or an embedded feature is indexed to an issuer’s own stock and thus able to qualify for the SFAS 133 paragraph 11(a) scope exception. This standard triggered liability accounting on all warrants exercisable at strike prices denominated in any currency other than the functional currency of the operating entity in China (Renminbi). The adoption of EITF 07-5 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results.

In June 2008, FASB issued EITF 08-4, “Transition Guidance for Conforming Changes to Issue No. 98-5”. The objective of EITF 08-4 is to provide transition guidance for conforming changes made to EITF 98-5, “Accounting for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features or Contingently Adjustable Conversion Ratios”, that result from EITF 00-27 “Application of Issue No. 98-5 to Certain Convertible Instruments”, and SFAS 150, “Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity”. This Issue is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2008. The adoption of EITF 08-4 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results.

On October 10, 2008, the FASB issued FSP 157-3, “Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset When the Market for That Asset Is Not Active,” which clarifies the application of SFAS 157 in a market that is not active and provides an example to illustrate key considerations in determining the fair value of a financial asset when the market for that financial asset is not active. FSP 157-3 became effective on October 10, 2008, and its adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results.

In January 2009, the FASB issued FSP EITF 99-20-1, “Amendments to the Impairment Guidance of EITF Issue No. 99-20, “Recognition of Interest Income and Impairment on Purchased and Retained Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets”. FSP EITF 99-20-1 changes the impairment model included within EITF 99-20 to be more consistent with the impairment model of SFAS 115. FSP EITF 99-20-1 achieves this by amending the impairment model in EITF 99-20 to remove its exclusive reliance on “market participant” estimates of future cash flows used in determining fair value. Changing the cash flows used to analyze other-than-temporary impairment from the “market participant” view to a holder’s estimate of whether there has been a “probable” adverse change in estimated cash flows allows companies to apply reasonable judgment in assessing whether an other-than-temporary impairment has occurred. The adoption of FSP EITF 99-20-1 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements because all of the investments in debt securities are classified as trading securities.

In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP FAS 157-4, “Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly” (FSP FAS 157-4). FSP FAS 157-4 amends SFAS 157 and provides additional guidance for estimating fair value in accordance with SFAS 157 when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased and also includes guidance on identifying circumstances that indicate a transaction is not orderly for fair value measurements. This FSP shall be applied prospectively with retrospective application not permitted. This FSP shall be effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. An entity early adopting this FSP must also early adopt FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2, “Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments” (FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2). Additionally, if an entity elects to early adopt either FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1, “Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments” (FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1) or FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2, it must also elect to early adopt this FSP.

In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2. This FSP amends SFAS 115, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities,” SFAS 124, “Accounting for Certain Investments Held by Not-for-Profit Organizations,” and EITF Issue No. 99-20, “Recognition of Interest Income and Impairment on Purchased Beneficial Interests and Beneficial Interests That Continue to Be Held by a Transferor in Securitized Financial Assets,” to make the other-than-temporary impairments guidance more operational and to improve the presentation of other-than-temporary impairments in the financial statements. This FSP will replace the existing requirement that the entity’s management assert it has both the intent and ability to hold an impaired debt security until recovery with a requirement that management assert it does not have the intent to sell the security, and it is more likely than not it will not have to sell the security before recovery of its cost basis. This FSP provides increased disclosure about the credit and noncredit components of impaired debt securities that are not expected to be sold and also requires increased and more frequent disclosures regarding expected cash flows, credit losses, and an aging of securities with unrealized losses. Although this FSP does not result in a change in the carrying amount of debt securities, it does require that the portion of an other-than-temporary impairment not related to a credit loss for a held-to-maturity security be recognized in a new category of other comprehensive income and be amortized over the remaining life of the debt security as an increase in the carrying value of the security. This FSP shall be effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. An entity may early adopt this FSP only if it also elects to early adopt FSP FAS 157-4. Also, if an entity elects to early adopt either FSP FAS 157-4 or FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1, the entity also is required to early adopt this FSP. Management is currently evaluating this new FSP but do not believe that it will have a significant impact on the determination or reporting of our financial results.

In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1. This FSP amends SFAS No. 107, “Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments,” to require disclosures about fair value of financial instruments not measured on the balance sheet at fair value in interim financial statements as well as in annual financial statements. Prior to this FSP, fair values for these assets and liabilities were only disclosed annually. This FSP applies to all financial instruments within the scope of SFAS 107 and requires all entities to disclose the method(s) and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value of financial instruments. This FSP shall be effective for interim periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. An entity may early adopt this FSP only if it also elects to early adopt FSP FAS 157-4 and FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2. This FSP does not require disclosures for earlier periods presented for comparative purposes at initial adoption. In periods after initial adoption, this FSP requires comparative disclosures only for periods ending after initial adoption. Management is currently evaluating the disclosure requirements of this new FSP.

Prior to January 1, 2008, under the Income Tax Laws of PRC, the Company’s subsidiaries are generally subject to an income tax at an effective rate of 25% on income reported in the statutory financial statements after appropriate tax adjustments, unless the enterprise is located in a specially designated region where it allows enterprises a three-year income tax exemption and a 50% income tax reduction for the following three years or the enterprise is a manufacturing related joint venture with a foreign enterprise or a wholly owned subsidiary of a foreign enterprise, where it allows enterprises a two-year income tax exemption and a 50% income tax reduction for the following three years.

Beginning from January 1, 2008, the new Enterprise Income Tax (“EIT”) law replaced the existing income tax laws for Domestic Enterprises (“DES”) and Foreign Invested Enterprises (“FIEs”).

The key changes are:

a.	The new standard EIT rate of 25% will replace the 33% rate currently applicable to both DES and FIEs, except for High Tech companies who pays a reduced rate of 15%;

b.	Companies established before March 16, 2007 will continue to enjoy tax holiday treatment approved by local government for a grace period of the next 5 years or until the tax holiday term is completed, whichever is sooner.

The estimated tax savings for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 amounted to $785,479 and $1,241,570, respectively. The net effect on basic earnings per share if the income tax had been applied would decrease basic and diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2009, and 2008 by $0.03 and $0.05, respectively.

China Fire & Security Group, Inc. was incorporated in the United States and has incurred net operating losses of $0 for income tax purposes for the three months ended March 31 2009, respectively. The estimated net operating loss carry forwards for United States income taxes amounted to $1,004,414 which may be available to reduce future years’ taxable income. These carry forwards will expire, if not utilize, from 2025 through 2027. Management believes that the realization of the benefits from these losses appears uncertain due to the Company’s limited operating history and continuing losses for United States income tax purposes. Accordingly, the Company has provided a 100% valuation allowance on the deferred tax asset benefit to reduce the asset to zero. The net change in the valuation allowance for the period ended March 31, 2009 was $0 and the accumulated valuation allowance as of March 31, 2009 amounted to $341,501. Management reviews this valuation allowance periodically and makes adjustments as warranted.

Note 12 - Statutory reserves

The laws and regulations of the People’s Republic of China require that before an enterprise distributes profits to its partners, it must first satisfy all tax liabilities, provide for losses in previous years, and make allocations, in proportions determined at the discretion of the board of directors, after the statutory reserve. The statutory reserves include surplus reserve fund and the enterprise fund. These statutory reserves represent restricted retained earnings.

Surplus reserve fund

The Company is required to transfer 10% of its net income, as determined in accordance with the PRC accounting rules and regulations, to a statutory surplus reserve fund until such reserve balance reaches 50% of the Company’s registered capital.

The transfer to this reserve must be made before distribution of any dividend to shareholders. For the three months ended March 31, 2008, the Company did not make any contribution to this fund. Due to the balance of Surplus reserve fund already reaches 50% of the Company’s registered capital, the Company did not reserve any surplus reserve fund for the three months ended March 31, 2009. The surplus reserve fund is non-distributable other than during liquidation and can be used to fund previous years’ losses, if any, and may be utilized for business expansion or converted into share capital by issuing new shares to existing shareholders in proportion to their shareholding or by increasing the par value of the shares currently held by them, provided that the remaining reserve balance after such issue is not less than 25% of the registered capital.

Enterprise fund

The enterprise fund may be used to acquire plant and equipment or to increase the working capital to expend on production and operation of the business. No minimum contribution is required and the Company did not make any contribution to this fund for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008.

Note 14 - Options issued to employees

On January 30, 2008, the Company’s 2008 Omnibus Long-term Incentive Plan was adopted and approved by shareholders. Pursuant to the 2008 Omnibus Long-term Incentive Plan, the Company reserved 2,000,000 shares of our common stock for issuance.

On December 31, 2008, pursuant to the Company's 2008 Omnibus Long-term Incentive Plan, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the issuance of 1,000,000 shares of options for its employee with total 800,000 shares options issued to executive officers. The options will vest evenly each quarter over the following four years, starting from the first quarter of 2009. The Company used the Black Scholes Model to value the options at the time they were issued, based on the exercise price of $6.81, which was the close price of the Company’s stock on December 31, 2008 and using the risk-free rate of 0.875%, 1.125%, 1.313% and 1.5% and the volatility of 86% that was estimated by analyzing the trading history of the Company’s stock. Because the Company do not have historical history exercise period from its previous issued option, the Company used the simplified method to calculate the term, which is the midpoint between the start vesting date and expiration date of the options, as a variable of the model. The 1,000,000 employee options had a fair value of $3,863,606. The related compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the four year vesting period.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT

The information in this report contains forward-looking statements. All statements other than statements of historical fact made in this report are forward looking. In particular, the statements herein regarding industry prospects and future results of operations or financial position are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of words such as "believes," "estimates," "could," "possibly," "probably," anticipates," "projects," "expects," "may," "will," or "should" or other variations or similar words. No assurances can be given that the future results anticipated by the forward-looking statements will be achieved. Forward-looking statements reflect management's current expectations and are inherently uncertain. Our actual results may differ significantly from management's expectations.

General

The following discussion and analysis provides information which the management of China Fire & Security Group, Inc., (the “Company” or “CFSG”) believes to be relevant to an assessment and understanding of the Company's results of operations and financial condition. This discussion should be read together with the Company's financial statements and the notes to financial statements, which are included in this report.

Overview

We are engaged in the design, development, manufacturing and sale of fire protection products and services for large industrial consumers in China. We have developed a proprietary product line that addresses all aspects of industrial fire safety from fire detection to fire system control and extinguishing. The Company is the first in China to leverage advanced technology for fire protection and safety to clients such as iron and steel companies, power plants, petrochemical plants, as well as special purpose construction in China.

Reorganization

We were organized as a Florida corporation on June 17, 2003.

CFSG owns, through its wholly owned subsidiary China Fire Protection Group, Inc., Sureland Industrial and Sureland Equipment (jointly “Sureland”). Sureland is engaged primarily in the design, development, manufacture and sale in China of a variety of fire safety products for the industrial fire safety market and of design and installation of industrial fire safety systems in which it uses its own fire safety products. To a minor extent, it provides maintenance services for customers of its industrial fire safety systems. Its business is primarily in China, but it has recently begun contract manufacturing products for the export market and it has begun to provide a fire safety system for a Chinese company operating abroad.

Sureland markets its industrial fire safety products and systems primarily to major companies in the iron and steel, power and petrochemical industries in China. It has also completed projects for highway and railway tunnels, wine distilleries, tobacco warehouses and a nuclear reactor. It is developing its business in the transportation, wine and tobacco, vessels, nuclear energy, and public space markets. Its products can be readily adapted for use on vessels and in exhibition halls and theatres. It plans to expand its marketing efforts to secure business in these industries.

Sureland has internal research and development facilities engaged primarily in furthering fire safety technologies. It believes that its technologies allow it to offer cost-effective and high-quality fire safety products and systems. It has developed products for industrial fire detecting and extinguishing. It believes that it is the only manufacturer in China which has successfully developed a comprehensive line of linear heat detectors.

-32-

As of March 31, 2009, Sureland operates more than 20 sales and liaison offices in China.

Sureland has twice been ranked as the leading Chinese industrial fire safety company by the China Association for Fire Prevention based on six major factors including total revenue, growth rate, net profit, return on assets, investment in research and development and intellectual property. Its key products include linear heat detectors and water mist extinguishers, whose sales volumes are the largest in China. Its products have been used by its customers in more than 20 provinces throughout China.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

While our significant accounting policies are more fully described in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements appearing at the end of this quarterly report, we believe that the following accounting policies are the most critical to aid you in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results.

Revenue recognition

Revenue is recognized when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company as follows:

Revenue from system contracting projects are recognized using the percentage-of-completion method of accounting and, therefore, take into account the costs, estimated earnings and revenue to date on contracts not yet completed. Revenue recognized is that percentage of the total contract price that cost expended to date bears to anticipated final total cost, based on current estimates of costs to complete the contract. Contract costs include all direct material and labor costs and those indirect costs related to contract performance, such as indirect labor, supplies, tools, repairs, and depreciation costs. Selling, general, and administrative costs are charged to expense as incurred. At the time a loss on a contract becomes known, the entire amount of the estimated ultimate loss is recognized in the consolidated financial statements. Claims for additional contract costs are recognized upon a signed change order from the customer or in accordance with paragraphs 62 and 65 of AICPA Statement of Position 81-1, "Accounting for Performance of Construction - Type and Certain Production - Type Contracts" ("SOP 81-1")

Revenue from product sales is recognized when the goods are delivered and title has passed. Product sales revenue represents the invoiced value of goods, net of a value-added tax (VAT). All of the Company’s products that are sold in the PRC are subject to a Chinese value-added tax at a rate of 17 percent of the gross sales price. This VAT may be offset by VAT paid by the Company on raw materials and other materials included in the cost of producing their finished product.

3.	Revenue from the rendering of Maintenance Services is recognized when such services are provided.

4.	Provision is made for foreseeable losses as soon as they are anticipated by management.

Where contract costs incurred to date plus recognized profits less recognized losses exceed progress billings, the surplus is treated as an amount due from contract consumers. Where progress billings exceed contract costs incurred to date plus recognized profits less recognized losses, the surplus is treated as an amount due to contract customers.

Foreign currency translation

The reporting currency of the Company is the US dollar. The Company uses their local currency, Renminbi (RMB), as their functional currency. Results of operations and cash flow are translated at average exchange rates during the period, and assets and liabilities are translated at the unified exchange rate as quoted by the People’s Bank of China at the end of the period. Translation adjustments resulting from this process are included in accumulated other comprehensive income in the statement of shareholders’ equity. Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the results of operations as incurred. Historically, the Company has not entered any currency trading or hedging, although there is no assurance that the Company will not enter into such activities in the future.

-33-

Use of estimates

Certain of the Company’s accounting policies require higher degrees of judgment than others in their application. These include the recognition of revenue and earnings from system contracting projects under the percentage of completion method and the allowance of doubtful accounts. Management evaluates all of its estimates and judgments on an on-going basis.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market, using the weighted average method. Inventories consist of raw materials, work in progress, finished goods and consumables. Raw materials consist primarily of materials used in production. Finished goods consist primarily of equipment used in project contracts. The cost of finished goods included direct costs of raw materials as well as direct labor used in production. Indirect production costs such as utilities and indirect labor related to production such as assembling, shipping and handling costs are also included in the cost of inventory. The Company reviews its inventory annually for possible obsolete goods or to determine if any reserves are necessary for potential obsolescence.

Accounts receivable

Accounts receivable represents the products sales, maintenance services and system contracting projects with its customers that were on credit. Overdue balances are reviewed regularly by senior management. Reserves are recorded when the collection of amounts due are in doubt. Delinquent account balances are written-off after management has determined that the likelihood of collection is not probable, known bad debts are written off against allowance for doubtful accounts when identified.

Results of Operations

Comparison of the Three Months Ended March 31, 2009 and 2008:

	For the Three Months Ended March 31,

Total revenues were approximately $16.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared to approximately $14.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008, an increase of approximately $2.0 million or 14 percent. This increase was primarily due to the increase in our revenues from system contracting projects during the three months ended March 31, 2009. The Company recognized revenues from 212 total solution, product sales and maintenance contracts for the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared to 146 contracts for the three months ended March 31, 2008.

-34-

Revenues from system contracting projects increased by 15 percent to $13.0 million derived from 121 contracts for the three months ended March 31, 2009, compared to $11.3 million derived from 81 contracts for the three months ended March 31, 2008. This increase in revenues from system contracting projects was mainly attributable to the increase in the number of system contracting projects we executed and the successful execution of large-scale projects from Xinyu Iron and Steel Group and Capital Iron and Steel Group during the period. Revenues from our product sales were $3.1 million derived from 39 executed contracts for the three months ended March 31, 2009, compared to $2.9 million derived from 33 executed contracts for the three months ended March 31, 2008. The increase in revenues from product sales was mainly due to the increase in the number of product sales contracts we executed during the period. Revenues from maintenance services increased by 20 percent to $0.6 million derived from 52 contracts for the three months ended March 31, 2009, compared to $0.5 million derived from 32 contracts for the three months ended March 31, 2008. The increase in revenues from maintenance services was mainly attributable to the increase in the number of maintenance service contracts that we executed as the result of the expansion in our customer base during the period.

In particular, our three largest customers were Xinyu Iron and Steel Group, Capital Iron and Steel Group, and Anshan Iron and Steel Group, which collectively contributed approximately $4.6 million in revenues, representing 27.5 percent of total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2009.

Total Gross Profit		10,296,759		61.6	%		8,044,395		54.7	%		2,252,364		28.0	%

Cost of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2009 was approximately $6.4 million, as compared to $6.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008, a decrease of approximately $0.2 million or 3.6%. Gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2009 was approximately $10.3 million, as compared to $8.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008, an increase of approximately $2.3 million or 28.0 percent. Gross margin for the three months ended March 31, 2009 was 61.6 percent, which increased from the gross margin of 54.7 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2008. The increase in our gross margin was mainly due to the increase in the gross margin of our system contracting projects, offset by the decrease in the gross margins of product sales and maintenance services during the period.

Gross margin of system contracting projects was 63.0 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2009, compared to 50.8 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2008. This increase in the gross margin of system contracting projects was mainly attributable to our successful execution of total solution projects from iron and steel industry during this period, which contributed more than 70 percent revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2009. Total solution projects from iron and steel industry contributed higher gross margins than the projects from other industries, as a higher percentage of our self-manufactured proprietary products were used in the projects from iron and steel industy, which contribute higher gross margins. The other reason contributing to higher gross margins of system contracting projects was attributable to the improved efficiency in the execution of large projects, which lowered the projects’ costs during the period. The gross margin of product sales was 61.2 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2009, compared to 70.8 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2008. The decrease in the gross margin of product sales was mainly attributable to a lower percentage of our self-manufactured proprietary products sold in product sales contracts, which contributed higher gross margins than our outsourced products manufactured by third parties.

The significant increase in our selling expenses was mainly attributable to the increase in our sales-related activities including strengthening relationships with new clients, marketing of new products and solutions and, expanding our business into new industries and geographic locations including nuclear power, transportation and various international markets.

General administrative expenses were approximately $1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009, as compared to approximately $1.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008, a decrease of approximately $0.1 million or 6.6 percent. The decrease in general administrative expenses were mainly attributable to our improved control over operating expenditures and a reduction in bad debt expenses. This was offset by an increase in option expenses, employee salary expense as the result of an increase in number of employee during the period.

Depreciation and amortization expenses were approximately $0.19 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared to approximately $0.17 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008, an increase of $26,132 or 15.6 percent. The increase in depreciation and amortization expenses was mainly due to equipment acquisitions for business operations.

R&D expenses were approximately $0.31 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared to approximately $0.27 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008, an increase of $47,381 or 17.8 percent. The increase in our R&D expenses was mainly attributable to our increased efforts in new product development.

Operating income was approximately $6.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared to approximately $4.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008, an increase of approximately $1.5 million or 33.5 percent. The increase in our operating income was mainly attributable to the increase in our revenues and higher gross margin during this period.

Total other income was approximately $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared to approximately $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008, an increase of approximately $0.1 million or 66.6 percent. This increase was mainly attributable to the increase in our interest income during the period.

Income before income tax was approximately $6.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared to approximately $4.8 million of income before income tax for the three months ended March 31, 2008, an increase of approximately $1.6 million or 34.4 percent. The reason for the increase in income before income tax was mainly due to an increase in our revenues and the improvement in our gross margins during the period. Provision for income tax was approximately $793,567 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared to approximately $48,642 for the three months ended March 31, 2008, an increase of $744,925. This significant increase in our provision for income tax was mainly due to the fact that Sureland Industrial, our major operating subsidiary, began to pay income tax at the rate of 12.5 percent, starting from the first quarter of 2009, after the expiration of its tax exempt period.

Our net income was approximately $5.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared to approximately $4.7 million net income for the three months ended March 31, 2008, an increase of approximately $0.9 million or 19.1 percent. Excluding the non-cash option expenses of $245,049 for three months ended March 31, 2009, our non-GAAP net income increased by approximately $1.1 million or 23.7 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2009. The reason for this increase in net income was mainly due to the increase in our revenues and the improvement in our gross margin during the period.

Currency translation adjustments resulting from RMB appreciation amounted to negative $0.2 million and $2.1 million as of the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The negative amount of currency translation adjustments during the three month period ended March 31, 2009 was due to the depreciation of RMB during the period.

The comprehensive income, which adds the currency adjustment to net income, was approximately $5.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared to approximately $6.8 million in comprehensive income for the three months ended March 31, 2008, a decrease of $1.3 million or 19 percent.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2009, we had working capital of $70.0 million including cash and cash equivalents of $29.4 million.

The following table sets forth a summary of our cash flows for the periods indicated:

Statement of Cash Flow

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2009			2008

Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities	$	2,487,961		$	(1,799,124	)
Net cash (used in) investing activities		(55,740	)		(18,693	)
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities		426,650			(348,582	)
Effect of foreign currency translation on cash and cash equivalents		(158,088	)		167,872
Net cash flow	$	2,700,783		$	(1,998,527	)

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities was approximately $2.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared to approximately $1.8 million net cash used by operating activities for the same period in 2008. Net cash provided by operating activities in the three months ended March 31, 2009 was mainly due to the net income of $5.6 million and a $2.6 million decrease in notes receivable, $1.0 million increase in accrued liabilities and $2.0 million increase in tax payable, offset by a $1.3 million increase in accounts receivable, $5.2 million increase in costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings, $1.0 million decrease in customer deposits and $1.5 million decrease in billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings.

The increase of $5.2 million in costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings was mainly due to the increase in the aggregate value of projects where we have recognized revenues more than we have billed the customers, while the decrease of $1.5 million in billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings was mainly due to the decrease in the aggregate value of projects where we have billed our customers more than we have recognized revenues.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities in the three months ended March 31, 2009 was $55,740 as compared to net cash used in investing activities of $18,693 in the same period of 2008. The cash used in investing activities in the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 was mainly attributable to capital expenditures related to the purchase of new equipment.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities in the three months ended March 31, 2009 totaled $426,650 as compared to $348,582 used in financing activities in the same period of 2008. The cash provided by financing activities in the three months ended March 31, 2009 was mainly attributable to the decrease in restricted cash during the period.

As a result of the total cash activities, net cash increased by approximately $2.7 million from December 31, 2008 to March 31, 2009. We believe that our currently available working capital of $70.0 million, including cash and cash equivalents of $29.4 million, should be adequate to sustain our operations at our current level as well as our anticipated expansion.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Market risk is the risk of loss to future earnings, to fair values or to future cash flows that may result from changes in the price of a financial instrument. The value of a financial instrument may change as a result of changes in interest rates, exchange rates, commodity prices, equity prices and other market changes. Our cash and cash equivalents are held for working capital purposes and consist primarily of bank deposits. We do not enter into investments for trading or speculative purposes.

Interest Rate Risk

We currently do not have any long-term debt. Our exposure to interest rate risk primarily relates to the interest income generated by excess cash invested in demand deposits. We have not used derivative financial instruments in our investment portfolio in order to reduce interest rate risk. Interest earning instruments carry a degree of interest rate risk and our future interest income may change, depending on market interest rate movement.

Foreign Currency Risk

Our business is operated in the PRC, and its value is effectively denominated in Renminbi. The fluctuation of foreign exchange rate between U.S. dollars and Renminbi could affect the value of our common stock. Our revenues and expenses are primarily denominated in Renminbi, and so our exposure to foreign exchange risks should generally be limited. We do not have material monetary assets and liabilities denominated in U.S. dollars, although to the extent that we do in the future, the fluctuation of foreign exchange rate would affect the value of these monetary assets and liabilities denominated in U.S. dollars. Generally, appreciation of Renminbi against U.S. dollars will devaluate the assets and liabilities denominated in U.S. dollar, while devaluation of Renminbi again U.S. dollars will appreciate the assets and liabilities denominated in U.S. dollar. In China, very limited hedging transactions are available to reduce our exposure to exchange rate fluctuations. To date, we have not entered into any hedging transactions in an effort to reduce our exposure to foreign currency exchange risk. While we may decide to enter into hedging transactions in the future, the availability and effectiveness of these hedges may be limited and we may not be able to successfully hedge our exposure at all.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls. As required by Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(b), our management has carried out an evaluation, under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2009.

-38-

Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective at March 31, 2009.

(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting. There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred in the first quarter of 2009 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
