BEIJING, July 9 /Xinhua-PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Xinhua Finance
Media ("XFMedia"; Nasdaq: XFML), China's leading diversified
financial and entertainment media company, today revised its
revenue guidance for the second quarter ended June 30, 2007. The
Company expects revenues for the second quarter 2007 to be in the
range of US$27million to US$29 million, exceeding previously stated
revenue guidance of $23 million. The increase is due to higher than
expected organic growth and in part to the anticipated
contributions from two acquisitions completed in June 2007. The
Company is reviewing the expected overall revenue guidance for 2007
given the contribution from the recent acquisitions as well as
expected contributions from another company acquired in July, 2007.
The Company anticipates that full year revenue guidance, previously
given as $110 million, will be revised upwards at the time of the
second quarter announcement in August 2007. The two acquisitions
completed in June were M-in Beijing Mobile Interactive Co., and
Singshine (Holdings) Hongkong Ltd., and the company acquired in
July was Convey Advertising Company. About Xinhua Finance Media
