Mr. Zhengdong Zhu, Chairman and CEO of CDEL, said, “We are pleased to report third quarter net revenue of $30.8 million, a 7.0% year-over-year increase, exceeding our guidance, as well as net income of $7.4 million, a 41.2% year-over-year increase compared with the third quarter of fiscal 2015. The primary drivers of our third quarter revenue growth include contributions from our accounting vertical, books and reference materials, together with our recently acquired Xiamen NetinNet business, which performed better than our expectations during the quarter. We look forward to the valuable contributions from Xiamen NetinNet in the upcoming quarters.”

Mr. Zhu added, “While third quarter cash receipts from online course registration decreased by 15.2% year-over-year, we still achieved growth in cash receipts from online course registration for the first three quarters of fiscal year 2016 of 2.2% year-over-year, primarily attributable to more rapid growth of our accounting vertical during the first half of fiscal year 2016, partially offset by the continued weak demand in our engineering and construction (E&C) vertical and the impact of a later start to the enrollment season for our National Pharmacist Qualification Examination test preparation courses compared with the year-ago period as previously disclosed. Of note, since the mid-July 2016 release of the licensed pharmacist exam policy, we are pleased to see a significant rebound in the cash receipts from the related courses.”

He concluded, “In the third quarter, we continued to execute on our strategic growth initiatives, including K-12 teacher continuing education, our Open Learning Platform, mobile related products, Big Data solutions, and our College Cooperation Program. In addition, we were especially pleased to complete the listing of our Zhengbao Yucai subsidiary on China’s New Third Board, the over-the-counter stock exchange, in June 2016. We anticipate the listing of Zhengbao Yucai on the New Third Board will further enhance our brand awareness within the China market, and enable us to raise capital from the Chinese capital markets to fund future growth.”

Mr. Mark Marostica, Co-Chief Financial Officer of CDEL, added, “Our third quarter results reflect solid operating execution coupled with diligent cost control. Of note, excluding the operating results of Xiamen NetinNet, our third quarter non-GAAP operating margin was 23.3%, up 110 basis points year-over-year, demonstrating our focus on the profitability of our business. As we head into our fourth quarter of fiscal 2016 (September), we will continue to balance investments in growth initiatives while maintaining a keen focus on profitability.”

Third Quarter Fiscal 2016 Financial Results

Net Revenue. Total net revenue increased by 7.0% to $30.8 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2016 from $28.8 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2015. Net revenue from online education services, books and reference materials, and other sources contributed 82.1%, 6.3% and 11.6%, respectively, of total net revenues for the third quarter of fiscal 2016.

Online education services. Net revenue from online education services was $25.3 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2016, a 3.8% increase from $24.4 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2015, mainly due to revenue growth in our accounting vertical. This increase was partially offset by decreased revenue in healthcare and E&C verticals.

Books and reference materials. Net revenue from books and reference materials increased by 8.1% to $1.9 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2016 from $1.8 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2015.

Others. Net revenue from other sources increased by 35.2% to $3.6 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2016 from $2.6 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2015, mainly due to our recently acquired Xiamen NetinNet business, which contributed third quarter fiscal 2016 revenue of $1.1 million.

Cost of Sales. Cost of sales increased by 16.1% to $13.2 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2016 from $11.4 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2015. Non-GAAP¹ cost of sales increased by 16.1% to $13.2 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2016 from $11.4 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2015. The increase was mainly due to increased salaries and related expenses, lecture fees, cost of books and reference materials, as well as expenses associated with our Xiamen NetinNet business.

Gross Profit. Gross profit increased by 1.0% to $17.6 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2016 from $17.4 million in the prior year period. Non-GAAP¹ gross profit increased by 1.0% to $17.6 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2016 from $17.4 million in the prior year period. Gross margin was 57.1% in the third quarter of fiscal 2016, compared with 60.5% in the third quarter of fiscal 2015. Non-GAAP¹ gross margin was 57.2% in the third quarter of fiscal 2016, compared with 60.6% in the third quarter of fiscal 2015.

Operating Expenses. Total operating expenses increased by 2.0% to $11.8 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2016, from $11.5 million in the prior year period. Non-GAAP¹ total operating expenses increased by 2.0% to $11.3 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2016, from $11.1 million in the prior year period.

Selling expenses. Selling expenses decreased by 7.0% to $7.7 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2016 from $8.3 million in the prior year period. Non-GAAP¹ selling expenses decreased by 7.1% to $7.7 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2016 from $8.2 million in the prior year period. The decrease was primarily driven by decreased commissions for the Company’s online distributors. This decrease was partially offset by increased salaries and related expenses, together with expenses associated with our Xiamen NetinNet business.

General and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses increased by 25.0% to $4.1 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2016 from $3.3 million in the prior year period. Non-GAAP¹ general and administrative expenses increased by 28.5% to $3.6 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2016 from $2.8 million in the prior year period. The increase was mainly due to increased salaries and related expenses, a decrease in reversal of doubtful debts, due to collection, compared to the prior-year period, as well as expenses associated with our Xiamen NetinNet business.

Income Tax Expense. Income tax expense increased by 32.8% to $1.8 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2016 from $1.3 million in the prior year period, primarily due to an increase in taxable income.

Net Income. As a result of the foregoing, net income increased by 41.2% to $7.4 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2016 from $5.2 million in the prior year period. Non-GAAP¹ net income increased by 38.0% to $7.9 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2016 from $5.7 million in the prior year period.

Operating Cash Flow. Net operating cash inflow decreased by 34.7% to $8.8 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2016 from $13.5 million in the prior year period. The operating cash inflow was mainly attributable to net income before non-cash items generated in the third quarter of fiscal 2016. The decrease in accounts receivable, inventories, prepayment and other current assets also contributed to the operating cash inflow. This operating cash inflow was partially offset by the decrease in accrued expenses and other liabilities, and deferred revenue.

Cash and Cash Equivalents, Term Deposits, Restricted Cash and Short-term Investments. Cash and cash equivalents, term deposits, restricted cash and short-term investments as of June 30, 2016 decreased by 34.0% to $71.9 million from $109.0 million as of March 31, 2016, mainly due to the repurchase of ADSs on the open market of $14.4 million, the payment of the acquisition balance for Xiamen NetinNet of $27.6 million, a long-term investment of $0.7 million, and the capital expenditure of $0.8 million. This decrease was partially offset by cash flow generated from operating activities in the third quarter of $8.8 million.

The Company may also make written or oral forward-looking statements in its periodic and annual reports to the SEC, in press releases and other written materials and in oral statements made by its officers, directors or employees to third parties. Statements that are not historical facts, including statements about the Company’s beliefs and expectations, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties. A number of factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement, including but not limited to the following: our goals and growth strategies; our future prospects and market acceptance of the Company’s courses and other products and services; future business development and results of operations; projected revenues, profits, earnings and other estimated financial information; projected enrollment numbers; plans to expand and enhance courses and other products and services; competition in the education and test preparation markets; and Chinese laws, regulations and policies, including those applicable to the Internet, Internet content providers, the education and telecommunications industries, mergers and acquisitions, taxation and foreign exchange.

Statement Regarding Unaudited Financial Information

The unaudited financial information set forth in this press release is preliminary and subject to adjustments. Adjustments to the financial statements may be identified when audit work is performed for the year-end audit, which could result in significant differences from this preliminary unaudited financial information.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement the Company’s consolidated financial results presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, the Company uses the following measures defined as non-GAAP financial measures: non-GAAP net income, operating income, gross profit, cost of sales, selling expenses, general and administrative expenses, net income margin, operating margin, gross profit margin and basic and diluted earnings per ADS and per share. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures, please see the table captioned “Reconciliations of non-GAAP measures to comparable GAAP measures” set forth at the end of this release.

The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding its performance and liquidity by excluding share-based compensation expenses. However, non-GAAP financial measures may not be indicative of the Company’s operating performance from a cash perspective. The Company believes that both management and investors benefit from these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing its performance and when planning and forecasting future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate management’s internal comparisons to the Company’s historical performance and liquidity. The Company computes its non-GAAP financial measures using the same consistent method from quarter to quarter. The Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors in allowing for greater transparency with respect to supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision making. A limitation of excluding share-based compensation expenses from the above-mentioned line items and presenting these non-GAAP measures is that such charges may continue to be for the foreseeable future a significant recurring expense in our business. Management compensates for this limitation by providing specific information regarding the GAAP amounts excluded from each non-GAAP measure. The accompanying table at the end of this release provides more detail on the reconciliations between GAAP financial measures that are most directly comparable to non-GAAP financial measures.
