“During this quarter, the economic slowdown in China had a greater than anticipated effect on our adult English courses. To reflect our revised expectations, in mid-February 2009, we issued a press release adjusting our third fiscal quarter 2009 revenue guidance downwards to the range of US$62 million to US$65 million. As it turns out, adult English enrollments for the quarter were approximately 50,300, up slightly from approximately 50,100 in the year ago period, but below our prior expectations,” said Michael Yu, New Oriental’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Furthermore, our financial results were negatively impacted by the early timing of Chinese New Year this year which occurred on January 26, 2009, almost two weeks earlier than last year. Several of our schools, including our second largest school in Shanghai, experienced a dramatic slowdown in enrollments and revenues in the
2
second half of January due to scheduling problems with class start times resulting from the compressed time frame between when students completed their regular school sessions and the early Chinese New Year holidays. Despite these challenges, we are pleased to report revenue increased 36.1% year-over-year to US$65.4 million, exceeding the top end of the revised guidance range. In addition, we are pleased that a strong bounce back in enrollments in February boosted total student enrollments in language training and test preparation courses for the quarter to about 351,700, an increase of 31% year-over-year.”
Mr. Yu continued, “Despite the challenging global economic conditions, we continue to benefit from Chinese families’ strong demand for education services for their children. Enrollments in our POP Kids English program were up over 48% year-over-year to approximately 85,800 during this quarter. To further expand capacity in our POP Kids English program, we added a net of nine learning centers in various cities. We are also pleased with the continued excellent progress in our middle and high school all-subjects training programs and gaokao test preparation courses. During this quarter, these programs had enrollments in non-English courses of over 23,000. For the first nine months of fiscal year 2009, we had approximately 45,000 non-English enrollments for middle and high school courses and we have already achieved our target of 40,000 to 50,000 enrollments for non-English courses for the whole fiscal year 2009, with one quarter still to come.”
Financial Results for the Fiscal Quarter Ended February 28, 2009
For the third fiscal quarter of 2009, New Oriental reported net revenues of US$65.4 million, representing a 36.1% increase year-over-year.
Net revenues from educational programs and services for the third fiscal quarter were US$60.0 million, representing a 34.7% 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 2009 increased by 31.0% year-over-year to approximately 351,700.
Non-GAAP operating costs and expenses for the quarter were US$52.7 million, a 47.9% increase year-over-year. GAAP operating costs and expenses for the quarter were US$56.8 million, a 49.7% increase year-over-year.
Cost of revenues increased by 40.9% year-over-year to US$26.0 million, primarily due to the increased number of courses and the greater number of schools and learning centers in operation.
Selling and marketing expenses increased by 51.9% year-over-year to US$10.5 million, primarily due to brand promotion expenses.
Non-GAAP general and administrative expenses were US$16.0 million, a 55.0% increase year-over-year. GAAP general and administrative expenses for the quarter increased by 61.4% year-over-year to US$20.2 million, primarily due to increased headcount as the Company expanded its network of schools and learning centers.

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 excluding share-based compensation expenses, income from operations excluding share-based compensation expenses, operating margin excluding share-based compensation expenses, general and administrative expenses excluding share-based compensation expenses, total operating costs and expenses excluding
6
share-based compensation expenses and basic and diluted earnings per ADS 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 table captioned “Reconciliations of non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP measures” set forth at the end of this release.
New Oriental believes that these Non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding its operating 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 operating 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 will compute 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 Non-GAAP financial measures excluding share-based compensation expenses is that share-based compensation charge 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 amount excluded from each Non-GAAP measure. The accompanying tables have more details on the reconciliations between Non-GAAP financial measures and their most comparable GAAP financial measures.
