With continued growth opportunities ahead, we are confident in our ability to accomplish the financial and operational goals that we have laid out for 2012. "

First Quarter 2012 Financial Results

Due to the seasonal nature of its business, the Company presents its financial analysis on a year-over-year basis, comparing the first quarter of 2012 and the first quarter of 2011 as in the following paragraphs.

Net Revenues

Net revenues were $86.1 million in the first quarter of 2012, up 50.0% from $57.4 million for the first quarter of 2011. The increase in net revenues was primarily driven by the growing demand in both the Greater China (including mainland China, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Macau) and overseas markets.

Net Revenues by Service Lines

Beginning from the first quarter 2012, the Company reclassified its services into four broad sets: R&D Outsourcing Services, Consulting and Solutions Services, Application Management Services and Other Solutions & Services. R&D Outsourcing Services consist of the research & development service line and the globalization & localization service line. Consulting and Solutions Services consist of consulting, business intelligence, ERP implementation and industry-specific solutions. Application Management Services consist of application development and maintenance ("ADM") and quality assurance and testing services. Other Solutions & Services consist of business process outsourcing ("BPO") and system integration ("SI") services. 

Consistent with the Company's growth strategy, net revenues from Consulting and Solutions Services grew 109.1% over the same period in 2011 and contributed 11.3% of total net revenues in the first quarter of 2012. Net revenues from Application Management Services accounted for 34.2% of total net revenues, increasing 58.2% compared to the first quarter of 2011. Net revenues from Other Solutions & Services increased to 3.9% of total net revenues in the first quarter of 2012, up 234.9% over the first quarter of 2011.

Based on the location of our clients' headquarters, net revenues from clients headquartered in Greater China were $40.2 million, or 46.7% of total net revenues in the first quarter of 2012, followed by 35.2% from clients headquartered in the United States, 12.4% in Europe and 3.9% in Japan.

Measuring the Company's revenues by geographic markets based on the location of the contract signing entities, Greater China accounted for 67.0% of total net revenues in the first quarter of 2012, while the United States accounted for 25.6% in the same period.

Net Revenues by Industries

The Company classifies its clients into four broad industry segments: Telecommunications ("Telecom"), High Technology ("High Tech"), Banking, Financial Services and Insurance ("BFSI"), and other industry segments including manufacturing, retail, distribution, travel and transportation and public services, etc. ("Others").

Largest Clients

Revenues from the top five clients totaled $46.0 million or 53.5% of total net revenues in the first quarter of 2012, down from 56.1% in the first quarter of 2011. The decline in customer concentration reflected our continued efforts to diversify our customer base. Excluding top five clients, net revenues in the first quarter of 2012 grew 59.1% over the same period in 2011.

Gross Profit and Gross Margin

Gross profit in the first quarter of 2012 was $27.0 million, an increase of 25.8% from $21.5 million in the first quarter of 2011. Gross margin was 31.4% in the first quarter of 2012, compared to 37.4% in the first quarter of 2011. Gross profit included $1.3 million and $1.2 million of government subsidies in the first quarter of 2012 and 2011, respectively. The lower gross margin in the first quarter of 2012 reflected the wage inflation in excess of billing rate increase as compared to the same period in 2011 as well as the near-term impact from our investment in the BFSI vertical and the Consulting and Solutions Services practice, which have been in the intensive build-up phase in the past three quarters.

Operating Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses totaled $24.3 million for the first quarter of 2012, up 54.5% from $15.8 million a year ago. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily due to the investment in consulting oriented pre-sale activities and higher staff costs as compared to the first quarter of 2011.

Operating Income and Operating Margin

As a result of increased costs and expenses as described above, operating income in the first quarter of 2012 was $3.1 million, compared to $6.8 million in the first quarter of 2011. Non-GAAP operating income1 in the first quarter of 2012 was $6.7 million, compared to $8.9 million in the same period a year ago. Non-GAAP operating margin(1) was 7.8% in the first quarter of 2012, compared to 15.6% in the first quarter of 2011.

Provision for Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes was $0.7 million in the first quarter of 2012, compared to $0.8 million in the first quarter of 2011. The effective income tax rate was 17.4%, compared to 10.7% in the same period of 2011. The higher effective income tax rate reflected expiration of tax holiday at one of our major operating subsidies in China.

Net Income and EPS

Net income in the first quarter of 2012 was $3.3 million, compared to $6.9 million in the first quarter of 2011. Non-GAAP net income(1) was $6.9 million in the first quarter of 2012, compared to $9.1 million in the same period a year ago. Non-GAAP net margin(1) was 8.0% in the first quarter of 2012, compared with 15.8% in the year-ago quarter. 

For the first quarter of 2012, diluted EPS and Non-GAAP diluted EPS(1) were $0.08 and $0.16, respectively, based on 43.9 million total ADS-equivalent average shares outstanding, compared with $0.15 and $0.20, respectively, for the first quarter of 2011.

The non-GAAP measures and related reconciliations to GAAP measures are described in the accompanying section of "About Non-GAAP Financial Measures" and the accompanying table of "Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to Comparable GAAP Measures."

Cash and Cash Flow

As of March 31, 2012, VanceInfo had cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, term deposits and short-term investments totaling $95.7 million. Operating cash flow in the first quarter of 2012 was a net outflow of approximately $11.0 million, compared with a net outflow of $6.2 million in the first quarter of 2011. The operating cash flow reflected the seasonality and annual bonus pay-out to employees in the first quarter. Investing cash flow in the first quarter of 2012 included a $5.9 million capital expenditure in the construction of our new headquarters.

Days sales outstanding ("DSO") was 132 days for the first quarter of 2012, compared with 115 days for the fourth quarter of 2011. DSO was 127 days for the trailing twelve months ended March 31, 2012, which is the same as the DSO for the trailing twelve months ended December 31, 2011.

DSO was calculated by dividing average accounts receivable, net of average deferred revenues, by the period's gross revenues before business tax, and multiplying by the number of days in the corresponding period.

Outlook for the Second Quarter and Full Year 2012

For the second quarter of 2012, the Company expects:

  • Second quarter 2012 net revenues to be at least $91 million, representing at least 33% increase from the corresponding period in 2011.
  • Second quarter 2012 non-GAAP diluted EPS(1) to be between $0.19 and $0.20, based on 44.2 million total ADS-equivalent average shares outstanding.

For the full year of 2012:

  • The Company raised its guidance and expects 2012 net revenues to be at least $368 million, representing at least 30% increase from 2011.
  • The Company reaffirms its original 2012 non-GAAP diluted EPS(1) guidance of $0.86 to $0.92, representing an increase of 16.2% to 24.3% from 2011, based on 44.3 million total ADS-equivalent average shares outstanding. The non-GAAP diluted EPS guidance reflects the Company's commitment to investing in and diversifying its business, the continued wage inflation environment in China and higher effective income tax rate in 2012.
  • The EPS outlook assumes an effective income tax rate of 14% to 16%.

Safe Harbor

This news release includes statements that may constitute forward-looking statements made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements can be identified by terminology such as will, should, expects, anticipates, future, intends, plans, believes, estimates, and similar statements. Among other things, the management's quotations and "Outlook for the Second Quarter and Full Year 2012" contain forward-looking statements. Such statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. Potential risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the company's dependence on a limited number of clients for a significant portion of its revenues, the economic slowdown in its principal geographic markets, the quality and portfolio of its service lines and industry expertise, and the availability of a large talent pool in China and inflation of qualified professionals' wages, as well as the PRC government's investment in infrastructure construction and adoption of various incentives in the IT service industry. Further information regarding these and other risks is included in VanceInfo's filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. All information provided in this news release and in the attachments is as of May 15, 2012, and VanceInfo does not undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statement as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required under applicable law.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement VanceInfo's consolidated financial results presented in accordance with GAAP, VanceInfo uses the following measures defined as non-GAAP financial measures by the SEC: income from operations, net income and diluted EPS excluding share-based compensation expense, amortization of acquired intangible assets and land use right, and change in fair value of contingent consideration payable for business acquisition. The non-GAAP income from operations, net income and diluted EPS for prior periods have been reclassified so that the presentations are consistent. 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. For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures, please see the tables captioned "Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to Comparable GAAP Measures" and "Reconciliations of Forward-Looking Guidance for Non-GAAP Financial Measures to Comparable GAAP Measures" set forth at the end of this release.

VanceInfo believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding its performance by excluding certain expenses and expenditures that may not be indicative of its operating performance. The Company believes that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing the Company's performance and when planning and forecasting future periods. A limitation of using non-GAAP net income and diluted EPS is that these non-GAAP measures exclude the share-based compensation charges, amortization of acquired intangible assets and land use right, and change in fair value of contingent consideration payable for business acquisition that have been and will continue to be, for the foreseeable future, a significant recurring expense in the business. Management compensates for these limitations by providing specific information regarding the GAAP amounts excluded from each non-GAAP measure. The accompanying tables have more details on the reconciliations between GAAP financial measures that are comparable to non-GAAP financial measures. The reconciliations of the forward-looking guidance for non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures in the accompanying table include all information reasonably available to VanceInfo at the date of this press release. The table includes adjustments that the Company can reasonably predict.
