BEIJING, Nov. 13 /Xinhua-PRNewswire/ -- eLong, Inc. (NASDAQ:LONG),
a leading online travel service provider in China, today reported
un-audited financial results for the third quarter ended September
30, 2007. Business Highlights for the Third Quarter 2007. -- Travel
revenues before business tax and surcharges comprised of hotel, air
and other travel product and service revenues, increased 12% to
RMB80.9 million for the third quarter 2007 compared with the prior
year period. -- Travel revenues before business tax and surcharges
by product line for the third quarters of 2007 and 2006 were as
follows (figures in RMB 000's): Y/Y Q3 2007 % Total Q3 2006 % Total
Growth Hotel commissions 64,417 80 % 57,412 80 % 12 % Air ticketing
commissions 15,585 19 % 11,045 15 % 41 % Other travel revenue 869 1
% 3,860 5 % -77 % Total travel revenue 80,871 100 % 72,317 100 % 12
% -- The Company recorded an operating loss of RMB 9.3 million for
the third quarter, compared with an operating income of RMB1.7
million for the third quarter of 2006, primarily due to greater
sales and marketing expense and consulting expenses partially
offset by higher revenue. -- The Company recorded a net loss of RMB
7.4 million for the third quarter, compared with net income of
RMB2.7 million for the third quarter of 2006. Net income decreased
RMB 10.1 million primarily due to current quarter sales and
marketing expenses of RMB 36.9 million, which is RMB11.5 million
more than the same quarter of prior year. -- As of September 30,
2007 cash and cash equivalents were RMB1.2 billion (US$158
million), consistent with December 31, 2006. "The third quarter was
a mixed quarter for eLong. Revenue growth was in line with our
expectations and we have, managed to stabilize the decline in
growth rates. However, we believe that eLong is not yet executing
to its full potential and we are working hard to change that. We
are very happy with the appointment of Mr. Guangfu Cui as CEO of
eLong and believe he will be instrumental in improving eLong's
performance going forward", said Henrik Kjellberg, Chairman and
former Interim Chief Executive of eLong. "I am delighted to be part
of the eLong team. We are facing a challenging situation but eLong
is structurally well positioned to achieve great results in the
market place," said Chief Executive Officer, Cui Guangfu. "While we
are keenly aware of the need for fiscal discipline, we believe
eLong needs to make investments to re-accelerate its growth," said
Chris Chan, eLong's Chief Financial Officer. "We remain confident
in the long-term opportunity of China's online travel market, and
over time we seek to turn the operations to top-rate customer
service and higher operating leverage." Business Results Total
gross revenues and travel revenues both increased 12% for the third
quarter of 2007 compared with the prior year period, reflecting
continued growth in our core hotel commissions business and the 41%
increase in air ticketing commissions. Hotel Hotel commission
revenue increased 12% year-over-year primarily due to higher room
volume. Room nights booked through eLong increased 13% to
1,009,000, while commission per room night remained unchanged as
RMB64. eLong has grown its hotel offering over 29% since third
quarter 2006, and now features discounted rates at more than 4,700
hotels in over 300 cities across China. Air Air ticketing
commission revenue increased 41% primarily due to a 36% increase in
air segments to 370,000, as well as a 4% increase in commission per
air ticket to RMB42. Profitability Gross margin in the third
quarter was 74%, a decrease of 200 basis points compared with 76%
in the prior year period. Gross margin decreased due to the
increased mix of lower margin air commissions and increased
compensation expense in our call center. Operating expenses for the
third quarter of 2007 and 2006 were as follows (figures in RMB
000's): Q3 % Net % Net Y/Y 2007(2) Revenue Q3 2006(1) Revenue
Growth Service development 12,196 15 % 10,718 15 % 14 % Sales and
marketing 36,858 47 % 25,331 36 % 46 % General and administrative
18,277 23 % 15,376 22 % 19 % Amortization of intangibles 265 0 %
265 0 % 0 % Total operating expenses 67,596 85 % 51,690 73 % 31 %
Note 1: Effective third quarter 2006, prior period service
development and sales and marketing, have been restated to exclude
expenses related to our discontinued operations Note 2: Effective
from third quarter 2007, business tax expense and related
surcharges have been presented on a net basis (excluded from
revenues). The Company believes the net presentation is preferable
accounting principle because the revenue amount after deduction of
business tax expense and related surcharge represents the benefit
to be retained by the Company. Amounts for all prior periods
presented have been reclassified for comparative purpose. For
impact of this change on prior quarters, please refer to appendix
"Business tax presentation change effect". The total of service
development, sales and marketing, general and administrative
expense increased 31% during the third quarter; total operating
expenses increased 31% as well. Service development expense is
composed of expenses related to technology and product offering,
including our website, the platform and the Company's air and hotel
products. Third quarter service development expense increased 14%
over the prior year period and service development expense as a
percentage of net revenue increased 22 basis points to 15% as we
maintained the pace of investment in our air booking and online
payment platforms, and invested in website and hotel product
enhancements. Sales and marketing expense increased 46% over the
prior year period, and increased 11% as a percentage of net revenue
to 47%. The increased expense was due to higher advertising and
promotion spending as well as increased sales commissions in line
with revenue growth. General and administrative expense increased
19% over the prior year period mainly due to increases in
consulting and recruiting fees. General and administrative expenses
as a percentage of net revenue increased 131 basis points to 23% in
the third quarter. Operating loss was RMB9.3 million as compared to
an operating income of RMB1.7 million in the third quarter of 2006,
an increased loss of RMB11.0 million primarily due to higher
spending in sales and marketing and consulting fees offset
partially by higher revenue. Other income, which represents
interest income, unrealized exchange gains/losses and other
income/expense, was RMB1.1 million in the third quarter of 2007,
primarily due to an unrealized foreign exchange loss of RMB13.7
million resulting from appreciation in the Renminbi compared with
the prior year. This exchange loss was partially offset by interest
income of RMB14.4 million in the third quarter of 2007. The company
recorded a net loss of RMB7.4 million for the third quarter
compared to a net income of RMB2.7 million in the prior year
period, an increased loss of RMB10.1 million primarily due to
RMB11.5 million in higher sales and marketing expenses in the third
quarter of 2007. Our US GAAP diluted loss per ADS for the third
quarter of 2007 was RMB0.30 compared to a diluted income per ADS of
RMB0.10 in the prior year period. Management Appointment eLong is
