Michael Yu, New Oriental’s Chairman and Chief Executive officer, commented, “We are pleased to report solid third fiscal quarter results with continued strong revenue growth of 48.6% and even higher profit growth of 68.1% year-over-year. The improvement in operating margin and net margin indicates that substantial progress has been made in improving operational efficiency through our expense control initiatives announced last quarter. During this quarter, to effectively cut costs and expenses and improve utilization of existing facilities, we strictly controlled the pace of school and learning center expansion. In this quarter, we only added 1 new school in Nantong city and a net of 8 learning centers in 7 existing cities, while in the previous three quarters we built 43, 33 and 24 new learning centers, respectively as well as 2 new schools in our fiscal first quarter. We also effectively executed strict control on the hiring of non-teaching staff. During this quarter, we added a net of about 660 employees, approximately 470 of whom were teachers. Our total headcount at the end of this quarter was about 21,300, including about 11,300 teachers. We were also successful in controlling marketing expenses in the quarter which totaled approximately $18.3 million, down from approximately $23.3 million in our fiscal first quarter and $18.6 million last quarter. Of the $18.3 million spent on marketing, about $7.5 million was for direct brand promotion spending, which was not headcount-related. This represented an increase of 12% from approximately $6.7 million in the same period a year ago. In the quarters ahead we will strive to balance rapid expansion to capture the enormous market opportunity in front of us with continued vigilance towards expense controls in order to realize operational efficiencies.”

Louis T. Hsieh, New Oriental’s President and Chief Financial Officer, stated, “Strong top line growth was primarily driven by the continued stellar performance of several key business lines, with year-over-year gross revenue growth rates of about 55% for overseas test preparation, about 133% for non-English U-Can all-subjects training and about 140% for VIP personalized instruction. First, our overseas test preparation segment maintained strong momentum with year-over-year enrollment growth of more than 33% to over 73,100 and year-over-year gross revenue growth of about 55% to about US$43.4 million in this quarter. We remain the dominant player in the overseas test preparation market in China with approximately US$152 million gross revenues and over 311,000 enrollments in the 12–month period ended February 28, 2011.

Second, our K-12 all-subjects after-school tutoring business recorded year-over-year enrollment growth of more than 35% to over 290,400 and year-over-year gross revenue growth of over 70% to over US$46 million in this quarter. It has been almost three years since we launched our non-English U-Can all-subjects business and we continue to experience extremely strong demand, recording year-over-year enrollment growth of more than 83% to over 66,900 and year-over-year gross revenue growth of over 133% to over US$18 million in this quarter. We are the leading service provider in the K-12 all-subjects after-school tutoring market in China with approximately US$173 million of gross revenues and approximately 996,500 enrollments in the 12-month period ending February 28, 2011.”

Mr. Hsieh continued, “Our VIP (one-to-maximum five) personalized courses continue to gain popularity with year-over-year enrollment growth of more than 68% to over 15,700 and year-over-year gross revenue growth of over 140% to about US$31 million in this quarter. In the 12-month period ended February 28, 2011, our VIP personalized courses recorded over US$104 million gross revenues and over 58,300 enrollments.”

Financial Results for the Fiscal Quarter Ended February 28, 2011

For the third quarter of fiscal year 2011, New Oriental reported net revenues of US$132.5 million, representing a 48.6% increase year-over-year.

Net revenues from educational programs and services for the third fiscal quarter were US$122.6 million, representing a 48.6% increase year-over-year. The growth was mainly driven by the increase in number of student enrollments in academic subjects tutoring and test preparation courses and higher average selling prices (ASPs) resulting from students selecting more expensive, smaller class options. Total student enrollments in academic subjects tutoring and test preparation courses in the third quarter of fiscal year 2011 increased by 17.8% year-over-year to approximately 490,200 from approximately 416,000 in the same period of the prior fiscal year.

Cost of revenues for the quarter increased by 55.0% year-over-year to US$54.9 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 32.5% year-over-year to US$18.3 million, primarily due to the addition of over 900 customer service representatives and marketing staff in the 12-month period ended February 28, 2011.

General and administrative expenses for the quarter increased by 44.9% year-over-year to US$38.0 million. Non-GAAP general and administrative expenses, which exclude share-based compensation expenses, were US$34.9 million, a 61.1% increase year-over-year, primarily due to increased headcount as the Company expanded its network of schools and learning centers.

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 measures is that they exclude 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.
