An explanation of the Company's non-GAAP financial measures is included in the section entitled "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below, and the related reconciliations to GAAP financial measures are presented in the accompanying financial statements. (2) "Revenue students" refers to students of university online degree programs who have paid tuition in the applicable period. "We are pleased to report healthy growth for the first quarter of 2009, which reflects solid enrollment growth for the fall semester of 2008 compared to the fall semester of 2007. In the first quarter of 2009, we have continued to invest in the company's future," said Ms. Julia Huang, ChinaEdu's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "We continued to build out additional franchised learning centers and were focused on preparing for the spring semester enrollment for all of our learning centers. Progress for our 101 online tutoring program and Phase II construction for the Anqing School are both on track. We have also continued to invest in courseware development, technology upgrade and the learning platform for both online degree and non-degree programs, establishing a strong foundation for future growth. We strongly believe our current investments will contribute to the growth and success of our company." Financial Results for the First Quarter Ended March 31, 2009 Net Revenue Total net revenue for the first quarter of 2009 was RMB81.2 million ($11.9 million), representing a 16.5% increase from the corresponding period in 2008. Net revenue from online degree programs for the first quarter of 2009 was RMB65.8 million ($9.6 million), representing a 19.7% increase from RMB55.0 million for the corresponding period in 2008. The growth in net revenue was primarily due to strong enrollment growth for the fall semester of 2008, which registered over 118,000 revenue students compared to 91,000 revenue students for the fall semester of 2007. Net revenue from the Company's non-online degree programs (online tutoring program, international curriculum programs and private primary and secondary schools) for the first quarter of 2009 was RMB15.4 million ($2.3 million), representing a 4.8% increase from RMB14.7 million for the corresponding period in 2008. This increase was attributable to the increase in student enrollment at Anqing School for the academic year beginning in September 2008 as a result of the completion of Phase I of the new campus construction as well as a slight increase in net revenue for the 101 online tutoring programs. Cost of revenue Total cost of revenue for the first quarter of 2009 was RMB32.6 million ($4.8 million), representing an increase of 34.8% as compared to RMB24.2 million for the corresponding period of 2008. Cost of revenue for online degree programs for the first quarter of 2009 was RMB22.7 million ($3.3 million), representing an increase of 48.2% as compared to RMB15.3 million for the first quarter of 2008. The increase in cost of revenue for online degree programs was attributable primarily to enrollment growth in our university partners' online degree programs in the fall semester of 2008 compared to fall semester of 2007, which recorded an approximate 30% growth in the number of registered students, as well as the expansion of our learning center network. We had 49 operational learning centers by the first quarter of 2009 compared to one operational learning center in the first quarter of 2008. In addition, in the first quarter of 2009, we continued to make investments in courseware development for selected university partners at our collaborative alliances(3). Cost of revenue for non-online degree programs for the first quarter of 2009 was RMB9.9 million ($1.4 million), representing an 11.7% increase from RMB8.9 million for the corresponding period in 2008. This increase was attributable primarily to increased cost of revenue related to Anqing School's new campus, which was partially offset by a decrease in cost of revenue for the international curriculum programs. (3) "Collaborative alliance" or "Collaborative alliances" refer to the subsidiary or subsidiaries that the Company formed with certain university partners to provide services to their online degree programs, which subsidiaries are majority owned by the Company. Gross Profit Gross profit for the first quarter of 2009 was RMB48.6 million ($7.1 million), representing a 6.8% increase from RMB45.5 million for the corresponding period of 2008. Gross margin for the first quarter of 2009 was 59.9% as compared to 65.3% for the corresponding period of 2008. This decrease was primarily attributable to our continued investment in our learning center network. Operating Expenses Total operating expenses were RMB31.1 million ($4.5 million) for the first quarter of 2009, representing a 4.9% decrease from RMB32.7 million for the corresponding period in 2008. This decrease was attributable primarily to the factors discussed below. -- General and administrative expenses for the first quarter of 2009 were RMB19.6 million ($2.9 million), which represented a 6.4% decrease from RMB20.9 million for the corresponding period of 2008. This decrease was attributable primarily to a decrease in provisional performance-based annual bonuses in 2009 as compared to 2008. -- Selling and marketing expenses were RMB4.9 million ($0.7 million) for the first quarter of 2009, which represented a 16.2% decrease from RMB5.9 million for the corresponding period in 2008. This decrease is attributable primarily to controlled sales and marketing expenses, specifically as a result of a decrease in the amount spent on advertising and promotional activities, for our learning center operations in the first quarter in 2009. -- Research and development expenses for the first quarter of 2009 were RMB6.6 million ($1.0 million), representing an 11.4% increase from RMB5.9 million for the corresponding period in 2008. This increase was attributable primarily to increased technological support and a platform upgrade for some of our collaborative alliances in order to further enhance and support our online degree programs. -- Share-based compensation for the first quarter of 2009, which was allocated to the related cost and operating expense line items, was RMB2.3 million ($0.3 million) as compared to RMB 0.4 million for the corresponding period in 2008. The increase was attributable primarily to adjust lower forfeiture rate for previous years in the first quarter of 2008 and an increase in the number of options granted in the fourth quarter of 2008, which in turn increased share-based compensation for the first quarter of 2009. Income from Operations As a result of the factors discussed above, income from operations for the first quarter of 2009 was RMB17.5 million ($2.6 million), which increased by 36.7% from RMB12.8 million for the corresponding period of 2008. Adjusted income from operations, which is a non-GAAP measure defined as income from operations excluding share-based compensation, amortization and goodwill and intangibles impairment charges, if applicable, was RMB21.6 million ($3.2 million) for the first quarter of 2009, which increased by 38.7% as compared to RMB15.6 million in the corresponding period of 2008. The increase was attributable primarily to the net revenue growth and the decrease in operating expenses (each as discussed above), which was partially offset by the increase in the cost of revenue discussed above. Interest Income Interest income was RMB1.7 million ($0.2 million) in the first quarter of 2009, as compared to RMB2.7 million in the corresponding quarter of 2008. This decrease was attributable primarily to a reduced fixed deposit balance, which earned less interest income than the corresponding period in 2008, when the fixed deposit balance was higher. Income Tax Expense Income tax income for the first quarter was RMB2.7 million ($0.4 million), as compared to income tax expense of RMB4.9 million for the corresponding period in 2008. This was attributable primarily to the fact that, in the fourth quarter of 2008, seven of our subsidiaries and affiliate companies applied and qualified for the "new and high technology enterprise" status under the new Chinese Enterprise Income Tax Regulation, which came into effect on January 1, 2008. As a result of their qualification for the "new and high technology enterprises" status, these subsidiaries received certain tax exemptions and a preferential statutory tax rate of 15%, thereby reducing the effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2009 as compared to the corresponding period in 2008. The effective tax rate in the first quarter of 2009 was 13.7%, which reflects the preferential tax rate of 15% applicable to the Company's main operating entity as a High and New Technology Enterprises and the preferential tax rate of 7.5% applicable to certain of the Company's subsidiaries and affiliate companies. Noncontrolling Interest Noncontrolling interest was RMB7.6 million ($1.1 million) in the first quarter of 2009, representing a 7.0% decrease from RMB8.1 million in the corresponding period in 2008, which was attributable primarily to reduced profitability at one of our collaborative alliances as a result of increased courseware development costs. Net Income (loss) attributable to ChinaEdu Corporation Net income attributable to ChinaEdu Corporation, which is net income excluding net income attributable to noncontrolling interest, was RMB9.6 million ($1.4 million) for the first quarter of 2009, representing an increase of 358.3% from net income attributable to ChinaEdu Corporation of RMB2.1 million for the corresponding period in 2008. Adjusted net income attributable to ChinaEdu Corporation (non-GAAP) increased by 179.8% to RMB13.4 million ($2.0 million) for the first quarter of 2009, as compared to RMB4.8 million in the corresponding period of 2008. The increase in both net income and adjusted net income attributable to ChinaEdu Corporation (non-GAAP) was primarily due to strong revenue growth in our online degree programs and private primary and secondary schools, and well controlled operating expenses. Adjusted EBITDA (Non-GAAP) Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) was RMB25.6 million ($3.7 million) for the first quarter of 2009, which increased by 39.5% as compared to RMB18.3 million for the corresponding period in 2008. Deferred Revenue Deferred revenue at the end of the first quarter of 2009 was RMB36.5 million ($5.3 million), with current deferred revenue of RMB29.6 million ($4.3 million) and non-current deferred revenue of RMB6.9 million ($1.0 million). Deferred revenue at the end of the first quarter of 2009 decreased significantly compared to deferred revenue of RMB102.1 million at the end of the fourth quarter 2008 due to the seasonality of enrollments, which results in tuition being received generally during the second quarter (spring semester) and the fourth quarter (fall semester) of each year. Cash and Cash Equivalents As of March 31, 2009, ChinaEdu reported cash and cash equivalents of RMB243.7 million ($35.7 million), which primarily consisted of cash-on-hand, demand deposits and term deposits with maturity periods of three months or less. Term Deposits and Amount Due from Related Parties Term deposits and the amount due from related parties (which represents cash owed to us by our collaborative alliance partners) amounted to RMB94.5 million ($13.8 million) and RMB114.7 million ($16.8 million), respectively, at March 31, 2009. Second Quarter 2009 Total Net Revenue Guidance For the second quarter of 2009, ChinaEdu expects its total net revenue to be in the range of RMB83 million ($12.1 million) to RMB87 million ($12.7 million). This forecast reflects ChinaEdu's current and preliminary view, which is subject to change.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures To supplement the unaudited condensed consolidated financial information presented in accordance with Accounting Principles Generally Accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"), the Company uses non-GAAP measures of income from operations and net income attributable to ChinaEdu Corporation, which are adjusted from results based on GAAP to exclude certain non-cash items of share-based compensation, amortization and goodwill and intangibles impairment charges, if applicable. The Company also uses adjusted EBITDA, which is also a non-GAAP measure and is adjusted from GAAP results of net income to exclude interest income, taxes, depreciation, amortization, share-based compensation and goodwill and intangibles impairment charges, if applicable. These non-GAAP financial measures are provided to enhance the investors' overall understanding of the Company's current and past financial performance in on-going core operations as well as prospects for the future. These measures should be considered in addition to results prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP results. Management considers the non-GAAP information as important measures internally and therefore deems it important to provide all of this information to investors.
