DALLAS, TX--(Marketwire - May 20, 2010) -  China Crescent Enterprises, Inc. (OTCBB: CCTR) remains listed on the Regulation SHO "threshold security" list (link: http://www.nasdaqtrader.com/trader.aspx?id=RegSHOThreshold). SEC Regulation SHO targets abusive naked short selling by reducing failure to deliver securities and by limiting the time in which a broker can permit failures to deliver. Management anticipates possible buy-in pressure, in conjunction with the Company's upcoming first quarter 2010 results and recent analyst report 'speculative buy' rating which could result in an increased price per share (PPS).

Prime Equity Research recently released an analyst report on the Company with a 'Speculative Buy' Rating and $0.054 price per share (PPS) target. The independent analyst report provides a description of the China Crescent investment opportunity and a summary of the Company's growth strategy and associated risk factors.
