“As we predicted during last quarter’s earnings call, we saw an impressive bounce back in our business this quarter after the H1N1 fears subsided,” said Michael Yu, New Oriental’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Our net revenues increased by 36.2% year-over-year to approximately US$89.2 million and our operating income increased by 57% year-over-year to US$13.6 million. We are also pleased that student enrollments in language training and test preparation courses this quarter increased more than 18% year-over-year to 416,000, notwithstanding the very difficult year-over-year comparison to the third quarter of 2009, when the early timing of Chinese New Year resulted in large numbers of students signing up for Spring classes in February (third fiscal quarter of 2009), thus driving enrollments up 31% to 351,700.”

Mr. Yu continued, “Also in this quarter, we continued to experience strong revenue growth in three key businesses, namely (i) POP Kids English with over 50% revenue growth year-over-year, (ii) Middle and High School English and U-Can all-subjects training with over 70% revenue growth year-over-year, and (iii) Overseas Test Preparation with over 34% revenue growth year-over-year. Furthermore, the blended average selling price increased approximately 10% year-over-year.”

Louis T. Hsieh, New Oriental’s President and Chief Financial Officer, stated, “Demand for our non-English U-Can programs, including small and one-to-one class offerings, continues to exceed our expectations. We had originally targeted 80,000 to 90,000 enrollments and revenues of US$25 million for our fiscal year 2010 ending May 31. We recorded over 36,400 non-English U-Can enrollments in the third fiscal quarter, which brings the U-Can enrollments during the first nine months of fiscal year 2010 to over 83,300, representing over 80% year-over-year growth. In the first nine months of fiscal year 2010, total revenues in non-English U-Can programs, including small and one-to-one class offerings, reached US$20 million, more than triple the year-ago figure. Thus, with one quarter remaining in fiscal year 2010, we are very confident in our ability to exceed our US$25 million target for U-Can revenues.”

Financial Results for the Fiscal Quarter Ended February 28, 2010

For the third fiscal quarter of 2010, New Oriental reported net revenues of US$89.2 million, representing a 36.2% increase year-over-year.

Net revenues from educational programs and services for the third fiscal quarter were US$82.6 million, representing a 37.6% increase year-over-year. The growth was mainly driven by the increase in the number of student enrollments in language training and test preparation courses. Total student enrollments in language training and test preparation courses in the third quarter of fiscal year 2010 increased by 18.3% year-over-year to approximately 416,000 from approximately 351,700 in the same period of the prior fiscal year.

Operating costs and expenses for the quarter were US$75.5 million, a 33.1% increase year-over-year. Non-GAAP operating costs and expenses, which exclude share-based compensation expenses, for the quarter were US$70.7 million, a 34.1% increase year-over-year.

 

Page 3 of 8


Cost of revenues for the quarter increased by 36.1% year-over-year to US$35.4 million, primarily due to the increased number of courses and the greater number of schools and learning centers in operation.

Selling and marketing expenses for the quarter increased by 31.3% year-over-year to US$13.8 million, primarily due to brand promotion expenses, especially for programs such as U-Can and the customized learning program.

General and administrative expenses for the quarter were US$26.2 million, a 30.1% increase year-over-year. Non-GAAP general and administrative expenses, which exclude share-based compensation expenses, for the quarter increased by 35.3% year-over-year to US$21.7 million, primarily due to increased headcount as the Company expanded its network of schools and learning centers.

Total share-based compensation expenses, which were allocated to related operating costs and expenses, increased to US$4.9 million in the third quarter of fiscal year 2010 from US$4.1 million in the same period of the prior fiscal year. Approximately US$590,000 of the increase was due to a one-off adjustment to account for a lower-than-expected forfeiture rate in the first nine months of fiscal year 2010 due to the fact that fewer New Oriental employees who had received share-based compensation awards left the Company and forfeited their unvested awards than anticipated.

Income from operations for the quarter was US$13.6 million, a 57.0% increase from US$8.7 million in the same period of the prior fiscal year, and Non-GAAP income from operations for the quarter was US$18.5 million, a 45.0% increase from US$12.8 million in the same period of the prior fiscal year.

Operating margin for the quarter was 15.3%, compared to 13.3% in the same period of the prior fiscal year. Non-GAAP operating margin, which excludes share-based compensation expenses, for the quarter was 20.7%, compared to 19.5% in the same period of the prior fiscal year. The rise in operating margin was primarily due to improved operating efficiency as revenue growth outpaced the growth in operating cost and expenses.

Net income attributable to New Oriental for the quarter was US$13.8 million, representing a 33.0% increase from the same period of the prior fiscal year. Basic and diluted net income per ADS attributable to New Oriental were US$0.37 and US$0.36, respectively.

Non-GAAP net income attributable to New Oriental was US$18.7 million, representing a 29.1% increase from the same period of the prior fiscal year. Non-GAAP basic and diluted net income per ADS attributable to New Oriental were US$0.50 and US$0.48, respectively.

Capital expenditures for the quarter were US$5.2 million, which was primarily used to add a net of 26 new learning centers and remodel older learning centers during the quarter.

In addition, the Company had US$120.4 million in term deposits at the end of the quarter. Net operating cash flow for the third quarter of fiscal year 2010 was US$ 22.7 million.

The deferred revenue balance (cash collected from registered students for courses and recognized proportionally as revenue as the instructions are delivered) at the end of the third quarter of fiscal year 2010 was US$69.8 million, an increase of 25.9% from US$55.4million at the end of the third quarter of fiscal year 2009.

Financial Results for the Nine Months Ended February 28, 2010

For the nine months ended February 28, 2010, New Oriental reported net revenues of US$299.7 million, representing a 28.6% increase year-over-year.

Income from operations for the first nine months of fiscal year 2010 was US$73.7 million, a 26.1% increase year-over-year. Non-GAAP income from operations for the first nine months of fiscal year 2010 was US$ 86.6 million, a 22.5% increase year-over-year.

Operating margin for the first nine months of fiscal year 2010 was 24.6%, compared to 25.1% for the same period of the prior fiscal year; Non-GAAP operating margin for the first nine months of fiscal year 2010 was 28.9%, compared to 30.3% for the same period of the prior fiscal year.

Net income attributable to New Oriental for the first nine months of fiscal year 2010 was US$72.0 million, representing a 23.4% increase year-over-year. Basic and diluted net income per ADS attributable to New Oriental for the first nine months of fiscal year 2010 amounted to US$1.91 and US$1.86, respectively.

Non-GAAP net income attributable to New Oriental for the first nine months of fiscal year 2010 was US$84.9 million, representing a 20.2% increase year-over-year. Non-GAAP basic and diluted net income per ADS attributable to New Oriental for the first nine months of fiscal year 2010 amounted to US$2.25 and US$2.20, respectively.

Outlook for Fourth Quarter of Fiscal Year 2010

New Oriental expects its total net revenues in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2010 (March 1, 2010 to May 31, 2010) to be in the range of US$75.5 million to US$78.4 million, representing year-over-year growth in the range of 27% to 32%, respectively.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement New Oriental’s consolidated financial results presented in accordance with GAAP, New Oriental uses the following measures defined as non-GAAP financial measures by the SEC: net income attributable to New Oriental excluding share-based compensation expenses, operating income excluding share-based compensation expenses, operating costs and expenses excluding share-based compensation expenses, general and administrative expenses excluding share-based compensation expenses, operating margin excluding share-based compensation expenses, and basic and diluted net income per ADS attributable to New Oriental excluding share-based compensation expenses. 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 “Reconciliation of non-GAAP Measures to the Most Comparable GAAP Measures” set forth at the end of this release.

 

Page 7 of 8


New Oriental believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding its performance and liquidity by excluding share-based compensation expenses that may not be indicative of its operating performance from a cash perspective. New Oriental believes that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing its performance and when planning and forecasting future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate management’s internal comparisons to New Oriental’s historical performance and liquidity. New Oriental computes its non-GAAP financial measures using the same consistent method from quarter to quarter. New Oriental believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors in allowing for greater transparency with respect to supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision making. A limitation of using these non-GAAP financial measures is that these non-GAAP measures exclude the share-based compensation charge that has been and will continue to be for the foreseeable future a significant recurring expense in our 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 most directly comparable to non-GAAP financial measures.
