Commenting on the results, Mr. Zhengdong Zhu, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer said, “In the third quarter, we continued to focus on enhancing our students’ learning experience and results and on executing our growth strategy. However, as anticipated, our results were impacted by the delayed timing of the Accounting Professional Qualification Examination, or “APQE”, and CPA exams. The delay has shifted the timing of enrollments and a certain amount of GAAP revenue from the fiscal third quarter into the fourth quarter and the next fiscal year. We believe the impact from the delay is primarily a matter of timing dictated by external factors, and does not reflect on overall market demand for our products and services, which remains strong. Our results excluding the examination timing issues remain healthy, as we achieved revenue growth towards the top of our guidance range while enrollment and average selling price (“ASP”) remain strong across most of our other accounting and non-accounting verticals.

“Going forward, we will continue to focus on integrating cutting edge online and mobile learning technologies in our delivery model and on our content and platform development to continue to enhance our students’ learning experience and attract new students to our programs. We expect to continue to grow at a healthy pace for the remainder of this year and into fiscal 2013.”

Ms. Ping Wei, Chief Financial Officer of CDEL, commented, “Due to the fixed nature of a significant portion of our costs and expenses, the delay of certain APQE and CPA revenue from the third quarter to later quarters had a material impact on our net income as compared to the prior year period. We believe that this impact is due to examination timing issues which are temporary in nature, and as a result, we expect to deliver increased profitability in later quarters.”

Fiscal Third Quarter 2012 Unaudited Financial Results

Net Revenues. Total net revenues from continuing operations for the third quarter of fiscal 2012 were US$13.1 million, representing a year-over-year increase of 8.1% from US$12.1 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2011.

Online education services net revenues for the third quarter of fiscal 2012 were US$9.3 million, an increase of 4.6% from the third quarter of fiscal 2011. The increase was a result of increased revenue in accounting test preparation courses and healthcare courses. Such increase was partially offset by decreased revenue from APQE and CPA courses due to delayed timing of examinations, and accounting continuing education courses, revenue recognition for which was impacted by the delayed timing of course completion by students.

Net revenues from books and reference materials for the third quarter of fiscal 2012 were US$1.1 million, an increase of 10.1% from the third quarter of fiscal 2011, after reallocating the online course services deliverable of US$0.5 million, which are included in online education services net revenues.

Net revenues from others increased by 21.2% to US$2.7 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2012 from US$2.2 million in the same period of last year. The increase was a result of increased revenue in platform production services, offline business start-up training courses provided by Zhengbao Yucai and other offline supplementary training courses. Such increase was partially offset by decreased revenue from magazine content production services and courseware production services.

Cost of Sales. Cost of sales from continuing operations for the third quarter of fiscal 2012 was US$6.32 million, representing a 25.5% increase over the third quarter of fiscal 2011. Non-GAAP1 cost of sales from continuing operations for the third quarter of fiscal 2012 was US$6.31 million, an increase of 35.0% over the same period last year. The increase in cost of sales was due to increased server management fee, salaries and related expenses, lecturer fees, cost of book and reference materials due to the increased sales volume, and expenses incurred by our growing business start-up training services.

Gross Profit and Gross Margin. Gross profit from continuing operations for the third quarter of fiscal 2012 was US$6.81 million, representing a 4.2% decrease from US$7.1 million in the same period last year. Non-GAAP1 gross profit from continuing operations was US$6.82 million, a decrease of 8.7% year-over-year. Gross profit margin from continuing operations for the third quarter of fiscal 2012 was 51.9%, compared to 58.5% in the third quarter of fiscal 2011. Non-GAAP1 gross profit margin from continuing operations for the third quarter of fiscal 2012 was 52.0%, compared to 61.5% in the same period last year. The decrease in gross profit margin was primarily due to decreased revenue from APQE and CPA exams resulted from the delayed timing of such examinations.

Operating Expenses. Total operating expenses from continuing operations for the third quarter of fiscal 2012 were US$5.8 million, a decrease of 11.7% year-over-year. Non-GAAP1 operating expenses from continuing operations were US$5.7 million, representing a year-over-year increase of 18.4%.

Selling expenses from continuing operations amounted to US$3.51 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2012, representing an increase of 21.9% year-over-year. Non-GAAP1 selling expenses from continuing operations were US$3.5 million, a 27.4% increase from the same period last year primarily as a result of increased commissions to our online distributors. Such increase was partially offset by a significant decrease in advertising and promotional activities due to the delayed timing of the APQE and CPA exams.

General and administrative expenses from continuing operations were US$2.3 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2012, representing an 11.1% decrease year-over-year. Non-GAAP1 general and administrative expenses from continuing operations were US$2.2 million, an increase of 6.4% year-over-year primarily due to increased salaries and related expenses and bad debts provision of accounts receivable aging over one year. Such increase was partially offset by decreased professional fees.

Income Tax Expenses. Income tax expenses for the third quarter of fiscal 2012 were US$0.3 million, compared with US$0.3 million in the same period last year.

Net Income from continuing operations attributable to China Distance Education Holdings Limited. Net income from continuing operations was US$1.11 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2012, compared to net income from continuing operations of US$1.10 million in the same period last year. Non-GAAP1 net income from continuing operations for the third quarter of fiscal 2012 was US$1.2 million, compared to non-GAAP1 net income from continuing operations of US$2.9 million in the same period last year.

Net Income (Loss) from discontinued operations attributable to China Distance Education Holdings Limited. Net income from discontinued operations was US$0.2 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2012, compared to net loss from discontinued operations of US$0.2 million in the same period last year.

Net Income. Net income was US$1.3 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2012, compared to net income of US$0.9 million in the same period last year. Non-GAAP1 net income for the third quarter of fiscal 2012 was US$1.4 million, compared to non-GAAP net income of US$2.7 million in the same period last year.

Operating Cash Flow. Net operating cash inflow for the third quarter of fiscal 2012 was US$2.2 million, compared to a net operating cash inflow of US$0.8 million in the same period last year. The increase was primarily the result of increased net income generated in the quarter, increased deferred revenue and refundable fee as more APQE and CPA exam revenue were deferred to later quarters, increases in accrued expenses balance and decreases in prepaid expenses balance. Such increase was partially offset by the increase in accounts receivable and deferred cost balances and the decrease in tax payables.

Cash and Cash Equivalents, Term Deposits and Restricted Cash. Cash and cash equivalents, term deposits and restricted cash as of June 30, 2012 amounted to US$55.6 million as compared to US$54.5 million as of March 31, 2012 primarily due to US$2.2 million of cash flow generated from operating activities in the quarter, partially offset by US$0.9 million of capital expenditures, US$0.3 million of remaining dividend payment and the repurchase of US$0.2 million worth of our shares as part of our share repurchase program.

Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2012 Guidance — The Company expects to generate total net revenues from continuing operations for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012 in the range of US$15.7 million to US$16.2 million, as compared to net revenues from continuing operations of US$13.1 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011, representing a 20% to 24% year-over-year increase. This represents our current and preliminary view, which is subject to change.

Statement Regarding Unaudited Financial Information

The unaudited financial information set forth above is preliminary and subject to adjustments. Adjustments to the financial statements may be identified when audit work is performed for the year-end audit, which could result in significant differences from this preliminary unaudited financial information.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement the Company’s consolidated financial results presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, the Company uses the following measures defined as non-GAAP financial measures: non-GAAP net income, operating income, gross profit, cost of sales, selling expenses, general and administrative expenses, net income margin, operating margin, gross profit margin and basic and diluted earnings per ADS and per share. 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 table captioned “Reconciliations of non-GAAP measures to comparable GAAP measures” set forth at the end of this release.

The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding its performance and liquidity by excluding share-based compensation expenses and impairment of purchased call option for acquisition of additional equity interest in Zhengbao Yucai that may not be indicative of its operating performance from a cash perspective. The Company believes that both management and investors benefit from 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 the Company’s historical performance and liquidity. The Company computes its non-GAAP financial measures using the same consistent method from quarter to quarter. The Company 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 excluding share-based compensation expenses and impairment of purchased call option for acquisition of additional equity interest in Zhengbao Yucai from the above-mentioned line items and presenting these non-GAAP measures is that such charges may continue to be for the foreseeable future a significant recurring expense in our business. Management compensates for this limitation by providing specific information regarding the GAAP amounts excluded from each non-GAAP measure. The accompanying table at the end of this release provides more detail on the reconciliations between GAAP financial measures that are most directly comparable to non-GAAP financial measures.
