Highlights for the Fourth Quarter and Fiscal Year 2014

 

Fourth Quarter 2014

 

·                  Total revenues for the fourth quarter of 2014 were RMB519.8 million (US$83.8 million), an increase of 107.1% year-on-year.

·                  Mobile revenues for the fourth quarter of 2014 were RMB257.5 million (US$41.5 million), an increase of 400.7% year-on-year, representing 49.5% of total revenues and 52.3% of pay-for-performance (“P4P”) revenues, compared to 20.5% and 22.6%, respectively, in the corresponding period of 2013.

·                  Total Estimated Flight Ticket volume (TEFT) and Total Estimated Hotel Room-night volume (TEHR) for the fourth quarter of 2014 were 24.6 million and 8.9 million, respectively, an increase of 61.8% and 107.7% year-on-year.

 

Fiscal Year 2014

 

·                  Total revenues for fiscal year 2014 were RMB1,756.8 million (US$283.1 million), an increase of 106.5% year-on-year.

·                  Mobile revenues for fiscal year 2014 were RMB708.7 million (US$114.2 million), an increase of 434.9% year-on-year, representing 40.3% of total revenues and 42.5% of P4P revenues, compared to 15.6% and 17.2%, respectively, in fiscal year 2013.

·                  Total Estimated Flight Ticket volume (TEFT) and Total Estimated Hotel Room-night volume (TEHR) for fiscal year 2014 were 83.9 million and 32.1 million, respectively, an increase of 64.0% and 98.1% year-on-year.

 

“We finished a remarkable 2014, our first year as a public company, with the third consecutive quarter of over 100% year-on-year revenue growth,” said Chenchao (CC) Zhuang, chief executive officer and co-founder of Qunar. “We achieved robust revenue growth in the fourth quarter across all our business lines, driven by strong volume gains in both TEFT and TEHR, and healthy quarter-on-quarter increases in revenue per ticket and revenue per room night.

 

“Mobile continued to be the key driver of our business,” Mr. Zhuang added. “In Q4, for the first time mobile contributed about half of our total revenues and accounted for 46% of TEFT, and 70% of TEHR. We will continue our strategy to further grow our mobile user base as well as increase our user frequency.”

 

“We are pleased with the return on our investments in technology and product sourcing throughout 2014,” said Sam Sun, chief financial officer of Qunar. “Direct sales accounted for 66% of our total hotel volume for the quarter. We will continue to execute on our plan and to drive Qunar’s long-term growth with an aggressive and deliberate investment approach.”

 

Fourth Quarter 2014 Financial Results

 

Total revenues for the fourth quarter of 2014 were RMB519.8 million (US$83.8 million), an increase of 107.1% year-on-year and 3.7% quarter-on-quarter. Mobile revenues for the fourth quarter of 2014 were RMB257.5million (US$41.5 million), an increase of 400.7% year-on-year, representing 49.5% of total revenues. Pay-for-performance (“P4P”) revenues for the fourth quarter of 2014 were RMB492.5 million (US$79.4 million), an increase of 116.9% year-on-year and 3.4% quarter-on-quarter.

 

Among the P4P revenues, flight and flight related revenues for the fourth quarter of 2014 were RMB344.4 million (US$55.5 million), an increase of 116.1% year-on-year and 10.4% quarter-on-quarter. Year-on-year P4P flight and flight related revenue growth was primarily due to a 61.8% increase in TEFT and a 33.6% increase in revenue per ticket. Quarter-on-quarter P4P flight and flight related revenue growth was primarily due to an 8.2% increase in TEFT and a 2.0% increase in revenue per ticket.

 



 

P4P hotel revenues were RMB102.2 million (US$16.5 million), an increase of 76.8% year-on-year and a decrease of 8.5% quarter-on-quarter. Year-on-year P4P hotel revenue growth was primarily due to a 107.7% increase in TEHR and was partially offset by a 14.9% decrease in revenue per room night. The quarter-on-quarter P4P hotel revenue decrease was primarily due to a 10.8% decrease in TEHR as a result of seasonality and was partially offset by a 2.5% increase in revenue per room night.

 

Gross profit for the fourth quarter of 2014 was RMB382.1 million (US$61.6 million), an increase of 90.9% year-on-year. Gross margin for the fourth quarter of 2014 was 73.5%, compared to 79.8% for the corresponding period of 2013 and 72.4% for the third quarter of 2014. The year-on-year increase in gross profit during the quarter was primarily due to the significant increase in total revenues, and was partially offset by an increase in online payment processing fees, recorded in cost of revenues, which the Company began to incur in the first quarter of 2014.

 

Product development expenses for the fourth quarter of 2014 were RMB242.1 million (US$39.0 million), an increase of 124.4% year-on-year, primarily due to an increase in salary, welfare and other expenses associated with headcount increases. Excluding share-based compensation expenses, product development expenses were RMB225.5 million (US$36.4 million), an increase of 125.7% year on year, and accounted for 43.4% of total revenues, compared to 39.8% for the corresponding period of 2013 and 43.1% for the third quarter of 2014.

 

Product sourcing expenses for the fourth quarter of 2014 were RMB110.6 million (US$17.8 million), an increase of 273.9% year-on-year, primarily due to an increase in product sourcing headcount. Excluding share-based compensation expenses, product sourcing expenses were RMB108.8 million (US$17.5 million), an increase of 284.3% year-on-year, and accounted for 20.9% of total revenues, compared to 11.3% for the corresponding period of 2013 and 19.8% for the third quarter of 2014.

 

Sales and marketing expenses for the fourth quarter of 2014 were RMB278.9million (US$44.9 million), an increase of 167.6% year-on-year, primarily due to an increase in salary and welfare expenses as a result of increased headcount, as well as an increase in online marketing expenses and advertising and other promotion expenses. The headcount expenses under sales and marketing were primarily expenses related to staff with operational functions, including call center staff, photographers, editors, and staff engaged in operational data analysis. Excluding share-based compensation expenses, sales and marketing expenses were RMB274.7 million (US$44.3 million), an increase of 171.1% year-on-year, and accounted for 52.9% of total revenues, compared to 40.4% for the corresponding period of 2013 and 52.5% for the third quarter of 2014.

 

Online marketing expenses for the Company’s Baidu Zhixin Cooperation for the fourth quarter of 2014 were RMB249.8 million (US$40.3 million), an increase of 6.0% quarter-on-quarter. The increase was primarily due to an increase of the appraised fair value of warrants the Company granted to Baidu under the Zhixin Cooperation Agreement. Online marketing expenses from the Zhixin Cooperation Agreement were non-cash expenses and recognized ratably over the period of service required to earn each tranche of warrants based upon the estimated exercisable number of the Baidu warrants and the fair value of the warrants at each reporting date.

 

General and administrative expenses for the fourth quarter of 2014 were RMB102.9 million (US$16.6 million), an increase of 73.9% year-on-year. The increase was primarily due to an increase in share-based compensation, salary and welfare expenses associated with headcount increases. Excluding share-based compensation expenses, general and administrative expenses were RMB60.1 million (US$9.7 million), an increase of 96.6% year-on-year, and accounted for 11.6% of total revenues, compared to 12.2% for the corresponding period of 2013 and 11.7% for the third quarter of 2014.

 



 

Contract termination loss provision, as a result of a one-off event, for the fourth quarter of 2014 was RMB64.5 million (US$10.4 million), compared to nil in the corresponding period of 2013 and nil in the third quarter of 2014.

 

Operating loss for the fourth quarter of 2014 was RMB666.6 million (US$107.4 million), compared to RMB100.7 million in the corresponding period of 2013 and RMB575.1million in the third quarter of 2014.

Operating margin (non-GAAP) for the fourth quarter of 2014 was negative 55.2%, compared to negative 23.3% in the corresponding period of 2013 and negative 54.6% for the third quarter of 2014. The year-on-year increase in operating loss was mainly attributable to an increase in headcount and continued investment in product development and product sourcing to drive business growth, especially development of the Company’s hotel direct business.

 

Net loss attributable to Qunar’s shareholders for the fourth quarter of 2014 was RMB675.5 million (US$108.9 million), compared to RMB121.6 million in the corresponding period of 2013 and RMB566.2 million for the third quarter of 2014. The increase in net loss attributable to Qunar’s shareholders was primarily due to reasons mentioned above.  Basic and diluted net loss per ADS for the fourth quarter of 2014 was RMB5.67 (US$0.90).

 

Adjusted net loss (non-GAAP), defined as net loss excluding online marketing expenses from the Zhixin Cooperation Agreement of RMB249.8 million, share-based compensation expenses of RMB65.2 million and contract termination loss provision of RMB64.5 million, for the fourth quarter of 2014 was RMB295.9 million (US$47.7 million), compared to adjusted net loss of RMB79.4 million in the corresponding period of 2013 and adjusted net loss of RMB264.7 million in the third quarter of 2014.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

To supplement Qunar’s consolidated financial results presented in accordance with United Statements Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), Qunar also uses Adjusted net income/(loss), Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted operating income/(loss) as additional non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures enable management to assess the Company’s operating results without considering the impact of contract termination loss provisions resulted from one-off event, and non-cash charges, including share-based payments, depreciation and amortization, expenses relating to free user traffic contributed by Baidu, Inc., and online marketing expenses from the Zhixin Cooperation Agreement. Furthermore, these non-GAAP financial measures eliminate the impact of items that Qunar does not consider indicative of the performance of its business.

 

Qunar presents these non-GAAP financial measures because they are used by management to evaluate its operating performance, formulate business plans, and make strategic decisions on capital allocation. Qunar also believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating its operating performance and consolidated results of operations in the same manner as management and in comparing financial results across accounting periods and to those of its peer companies. 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. A limitation of using these non-GAAP financial measures is that these non-GAAP measures do not include all items that impact the Company’s results of operations for the period. The table captioned “Reconciliations of GAAP and non-GAAP Measures” has more details on the reconciliations between GAAP financial measures that are most directly comparable to the non-GAAP financial measures.
