Financial Results for the Second Quarter Ended June 30, 2010
Net Revenue
Total net revenue for the second quarter of 2010 was
$14.7 million, representing a 12.7%
increase from $13.0 million for the
corresponding period in 2009. Net revenue from online degree
programs for the second quarter of 2010 was $11.8 million, representing a 12.2% increase from
$10.5 million for the corresponding
period in 2009. Enrollment for the 2010 spring semester online
degree programs was over 157,000 revenue students, which
represented an increase of 6.8% as compared to 147,000 revenue
students for the 2009 spring semester. The higher revenue growth
compared to enrollment growth was primarily attributable to lower
third-party learning centers' expenses, and increased tuition rates
at selected online colleges.
The Learning centers network continued to expand both in
geographic coverage and universities served. By the end of the
second quarter of 2010, we had 65 operational learning centers, of
which 27 were proprietary and 38 were contracted locations, as
compared to 56 operational learning centers as of the end of the
second quarter of 2009, of which 21 were proprietary and 35 were
contracted locations. Our learning centers network was serving a
total of 18 universities' online degree programs as of the end of
the second quarter of 2010.
Net revenue from the Company's non-online degree programs
(online tutoring programs, private primary and secondary schools
and international curriculum programs) for the second quarter of
2010 was $2.9 million, representing a
14.9% increase from $2.5 million for
the corresponding period in 2009. This increase was attributable to
a 29.3% increase in net revenue for the 101 online tutoring
programs and a 36.8% increase in net revenue at Anqing School due
to an increase in student enrollment as a result of the opening of
the new campus. The increases were offset by a 27.3% decrease in
net revenue for the international curriculum programs, which was in
line with the management expectation.
Cost of Revenue
Total cost of revenue for the second quarter of 2010 was
$5.2 million, representing an
increase of 5.3%, as compared to $4.9
million for the corresponding period of 2009. Cost of
revenue for online degree programs for the second quarter of 2010
was $3.6 million, representing an
increase of 8.3% as compared to $3.3
million for the second quarter of 2009. The increase in
online degree programs' cost of revenue was primarily related to
the increase in student enrollment in the 2010 spring semester as
compared to 2009 spring semester, in particular at our learning
centers network.
Cost of revenue for non-online degree programs for the second
quarter of 2010 was $1.6 million,
representing a slight decrease of 1.1% for the corresponding period
in 2009. This decrease was attributable primarily to a decrease in
cost of revenue for both 101 online tutoring programs and
international curriculum programs, offset by an increase in staff
and depreciation charges related to Anqing School's new campus.
Gross Profit and Gross Margin
Gross profit for the second quarter of 2010 was $9.5 million, representing a 17.2% increase from
$8.1 million for the corresponding
period of 2009. Total gross margin for the second quarter of 2010
increased to 64.9%, as compared to 62.4% for the corresponding
period of 2009. Gross margin for the online degree programs
increased to 69.6% for the second quarter of 2010, as compared to
68.5% for the corresponding period of 2009.
Gross margin for 101 online tutoring programs improved
significantly to 75.8% for the second quarter of 2010, as compared
to 65.5% for the second quarter of 2009, due to reduced courseware
development cost and a reduction in the number of staff. Despite
increased cost of revenue, gross margin for private schools
improved significantly to 25.8%, as compared to 9.7% in the
corresponding period in 2009, due to increased enrollment at Anqing
School's new campus. Gross margin for the international curriculum
programs remained stable at 45.9% for the second quarter of 2010,
as compared to 46.4% in the corresponding period of 2009.
Operating Expenses
Total operating expenses were $5.3
million for the second quarter of 2010, representing an 8.8%
increase from $4.9 million for the
corresponding period in 2009. This increase was a result of the
factors discussed below:
-- General and administrative expenses for the second quarter of 2010 were
$2.7 million, which represented a 6.8% decrease from $2.9 million for
the corresponding period in 2009. Excluding the impact of our share
based compensation in the second quarter of 2010, our general and
administrative expenses increased by 4.1%.
-- Selling and marketing expenses were $1.2 million for the second quarter
of 2010, which represented a 48.3% increase from $0.8 million for the
corresponding period in 2009. This increase was attributable primarily
to an increase in advertising expenses at our 101 online tutoring
programs, as well as an increase in sales and marketing staff at
selected subsidiaries in the second quarter of 2010.
-- Research and development expenses for the second quarter of 2010 were
$1.4 million, representing a 20.7% increase from $1.2 million in the
corresponding period in 2009, primarily due to increased staff and
related increased depreciation expenses associated with the new
research and development initiatives for both degree and non-degree
programs.
-- Share-based compensation for the second quarter of 2010, which was
allocated to the related cost and operating expense line items,
temporarily decreased to $0.1 million as compared to $0.3 million for
the corresponding period in 2009, due to a true-up adjustment of
forfeiture rate.
Income from Operations
As a result of the factors discussed above, income from
operations for the second quarter of 2010 was $4.2 million, representing a 29.8% increase as
compared to $3.2 million for the
corresponding period of 2009. Operating margin increased to 28.7%
for the second quarter of 2010, as compared to 24.9% in the
corresponding period of 2009.
Adjusted income from operations, which is a non-GAAP measure
defined as income from operations excluding share-based
compensation, and amortization of intangible assets and land use
rights, was $4.5 million for the
second quarter of 2010, representing an increase of 18.3% as
compared to $3.8 million in the
corresponding period of 2009. Adjusted operating margin, which is a
non-GAAP measure defined as a ratio of adjusted operating income
from operations (non-GAAP) over net revenue, for the second quarter
of 2010 improved to 30.3% as compared to 28.9% for the
corresponding period of 2009.
Interest Income and Investment Income
Interest income and investment income for the second quarter of
2010 increased 58% to $0.28 million,
as compared to $0.17 million in the
corresponding quarter of 2009.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense for the second quarter of 2010 was
$1.0 million, which remained flat
from income tax expense of $1.0
million for the corresponding period in 2009.
Noncontrolling Interest
Noncontrolling interest was $1.6
million in the second quarter of 2010, representing an
increase from $1.3 million in the
corresponding period in 2009, which was attributable primarily to
the noncontrolling interest impact related to the increased net
income from the online degree programs for the second quarter of
2010, as compared to the second quarter of 2009.
Net Income attributable to ChinaEdu
Net income attributable to ChinaEdu, which is net income
excluding net income attributable to noncontrolling interest, was
$2.0 million for the second quarter
of 2010, representing an increase of 52.8% from $1.3 million for the corresponding period in
2009. The increase was primarily due to improved gross margin
across all of our business lines except for the international
curriculum programs of which gross margin remained stable, as well
as improved operating efficiencies.
Net income attributable to ChinaEdu per basic and diluted ADS
were $0.125 and $0.115, respectively, for the second quarter of
2010, as compared to $0.080 and
$0.075, respectively, for the
corresponding period in 2009, which represented growth of 56.3% and
53.3%, respectively.
Adjusted net income attributable to ChinaEdu (non-GAAP)
increased by 22.1% to $2.2 million
for the second quarter of 2010 from $1.8
million in the corresponding period of 2009. Adjusted net
margin, which is a non-GAAP measure defined as a ratio of adjusted
net income attributable to ChinaEdu (non-GAAP) over net revenue,
was 14.8% in the second quarter of 2010, as compared to 13.7% in
the corresponding period of 2009. The increase was primarily due to
improvement in operating results across our online degree programs,
101 online tutoring programs and private schools, as well as stable
operating results at the international curriculum programs.
Adjusted net income attributable to ChinaEdu per basic and
diluted ADS (non-GAAP) were $0.136
and $0.125, respectively, for the
second quarter of 2010, as compared to $0.111 and $0.103,
respectively, for the corresponding period in 2009, which
represented growth of 22.5% and 21.4%, respectively.
Adjusted EBITDA (Non-GAAP)
Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) was $5.2
million for the second quarter of 2010, which increased by
20.4%, as compared to $4.4 million
for the corresponding period in 2009. Adjusted EBITDA margin
(non-GAAP) was 35.7% in the second quarter of 2010 as compared to
33.4% in the second quarter of 2009. This increase was attributable
primarily to improved operating results as discussed above.
Deferred Revenue
Deferred revenue at the end of the second quarter of 2010 was
$17.0 million, with current deferred
revenue of $15.8 million and
non-current deferred revenue of $1.2
million. Deferred revenue at the end of the second quarter
of 2010 increased as compared to deferred revenue of $15.6 million at the end of the fourth quarter
2009 due to seasonality of enrollments. Tuition is received
generally during the second quarter (spring semester) and the
fourth quarter (fall semester) of each year.
Cash and Cash Equivalents and Term Deposits
As of June 30, 2010, ChinaEdu
reported cash and cash equivalents and term deposits of
$49.1 million, which primarily
consisted of cash, demand deposits with original maturities of
three months or less, and term deposits with original maturity
terms of greater than three months but less than one year.
Amounts Due from Related Parties
Amounts due from related parties (which represent cash owed to
us by our collaborative alliance partners) were $37.5 million as of June
30, 2010, as compared to amounts due from related parties of
$26.1 million as of December 31, 2009.
2010 Year-to-Date Financial Results
Net Revenue
For the six months ended June 30,
2010, total net revenue was $27.5
million, which represented an increase of 10.2% from
$25.0 million for the corresponding
period in 2009. Net revenue from online degree programs for the
first half of 2010 was $21.9 million,
representing an 8.4% increase from $20.2
million for the corresponding period in 2009. And the net
revenue from non-online degree programs for the first half of 2010
was $5.6 million, as compared to
$4.8 million for the corresponding
period in 2009, representing an 18.2% increase. The growth in total
net revenue was attributable to strong enrollment for the online
degree programs both in the fall semester of 2009 and spring
semester of 2010, particularly at our learning centers, and growth
in net revenue at Anqing School and 101 online tutoring programs,
despite revenue decrease at the international curriculum
programs.
Cost of Revenue
For the six months ended June 30,
2010, total cost of revenue was $9.8
million, which remained stable as compared to $9.7 million for the corresponding period in
2009. Cost of revenue at our online degree programs remained stable
in the first half of 2010 as compared to the corresponding period
of 2009. The slight decrease in cost of revenue for 101 online
tutoring programs and decrease in cost of revenue at the
international curriculum programs were offset by an increase in
staff and depreciation charges at the Anqing School.
Gross Profit
Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was $17.8
million as compared with $15.3
million for the corresponding period in 2009, representing
an increase of 16.2%, primarily due to significantly improved gross
margins for our online degree programs, 101 online tutoring
programs and private schools, as well as stable gross margin at our
international curriculum programs.
Income from Operations
Income from operations was $7.1
million for the six months ended June
30, 2010, representing an increase of 21.6% from
$5.8 million for the corresponding
period in 2009. Operating margin was 25.7% for the six months ended
June 30, 2010 as compared to 23.3%
for the corresponding period in 2009.

to 27.8% for the corresponding period in 2009.

Net income attributable to ChinaEdu was $3.1 million for the six months ended
June 30, 2010, representing an

for the corresponding period in 2009. Net margin was 11.1% for the
six months ended June 30, 2010 as
compared to 10.9% for the corresponding period in 2009.
Adjusted net margin was 13.5% for the six months ended
June 30, 2010 as compared to 15.0%
for the corresponding period of 2009. The decrease was primarily
due to the increase in income tax expenses in the first quarter of
2010.
Adjusted EBITDA (Non-GAAP)
Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) was $9.3
million for the first half of 2010, which increased by
14.5%, as compared to $8.1 million
for the corresponding period in 2009. Adjusted EBITDA margin was
33.8% in the first half of 2010 as compared to 32.5% in the first
half of 2009. This increase was attributable primarily to improved
operating results as discussed above.
Third Quarter 2010 Total Net Revenue Guidance
For the third quarter of 2010, ChinaEdu expects its total net
revenue to be in the range of RMB96 million
to RMB99 million or $14.2 million to

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,
which are adjusted from results based on GAAP to exclude certain
non-cash items of share-based compensation and amortization of
intangible assets and land use rights. 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 of intangible assets and land use
rights, and share-based compensation. 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.
