First Quarter Fiscal 2017 Financial and Operational Highlights

 

    Total course enrollments reached 1,293,000, an increase of 8.5% from the first quarter of fiscal 2016.

 

    Cash receipts from online course registration were $26.8 million, flat compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2016. Without the impact of the Renminbi depreciation against the U.S. Dollar, cash receipts from online course registration increased by 7.3% year-over-year in the first quarter of fiscal 2017.

 

    Net revenue increased by 31.2% to $32.0 million from $24.4 million in the prior year period, exceeding the Company’s guidance range of $28.0 million to $29.2 million. Xiamen NetinNet, which was acquired by the Company in May 2016, contributed net revenue from the sale of learning simulation software of $6.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2017.

 

    Gross profit increased by 50.4% to $19.2 million from $12.8 million in the prior year period.

 

    Non-GAAP1 gross profit increased by 50.2% to $19.2 million from $12.8 million in the prior year period.

    Basic and diluted net income per American Depositary Share (“ADS”) were $0.260 and $0.259, respectively, compared with basic and diluted net income per ADS of $0.116 for the first quarter of fiscal 2016. Each ADS represents four ordinary shares.

 

    Basic and diluted non-GAAP1 net income per ADS were $0.276 and $0.275, respectively, compared with basic and diluted non-GAAP1 net income per ADS of $0.131 and $0.130, respectively, for the first quarter of fiscal 2016.

 

    Cash flow from operations increased by 33.6% to $16.5 million from $12.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2016.

Mr. Zhengdong Zhu, Chairman and CEO of CDEL, said, “We are pleased to kick off fiscal 2017 by achieving strong financial results driven by net revenue growth of 31.2% and net income growth that more than doubled from the same period of last year. We exceeded our first quarter revenue guidance range by benefiting primarily from the earlier-than-anticipated release of exam results from certain healthcare examinations, resulting in the early recognition of $3.1 million of revenue in the first quarter for the related healthcare premium courses.”

Mr. Zhu added, “Our first fiscal quarter results underscore the resiliency of our business model, as we navigate market changes while continuing to provide best-in-class courseware and services to our students. In fiscal 2017, we will continue to strive for innovation and growth by further penetrating our core vertical markets and launching new courses and services in both existing and new areas, such as the College Cooperation Program and K-12 teacher continuing education. We also plan to continue our focus on other key growth initiatives, including our mobile related products and Big Data solutions. In addition, we look forward to pursuing select acquisition and strategic investment opportunities that will complement our avenues of growth, and further our efforts to position China Distance Education as the premier life-long learning partner for our students.”

Mr. Mark Marostica, Co-Chief Financial Officer of CDEL, said, “Turning to organic growth, excluding both the operating results of Xiamen NetinNet and the impact of the Renminbi depreciation against the U.S. Dollar, first quarter net revenue and non-GAAP operating income increased 11.9% and 11.1% year-over-year, respectively, and as a result, our first quarter non-GAAP operating margin remained relatively flat year-over-year. Looking ahead, we will continue to balance our efforts to drive growth with a keen focus on profitability and prudent cost controls.”

First Quarter Fiscal 2017 Financial Results

Net Revenue. Total net revenue increased by 31.2% to $32.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2017 from $24.4 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2016. Net revenue from online education services, books and reference materials, and other sources contributed 62.9%, 5.1% and 32.0%, respectively, of total net revenues for the first quarter of fiscal 2017.

Online education services. Net revenue from online education services increased by 4.8% to $20.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2017 from $19.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2016. This increase was mainly due to strong revenue growth in the healthcare vertical resulting from the earlier-than-anticipated release of exam results for certain healthcare examinations, and contributions from our accounting vertical.

Books and reference materials. Net revenue from books and reference materials decreased by 8.3% to $1.6 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2017 from $1.8 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2016.

Other revenues. Net revenue from other sources increased by 201.8% to $10.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2017 from $3.4 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2016, primarily due to Xiamen NetinNet’s revenue contribution of $6.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2017, and growth from business start-up training services.

Cost of Sales. Cost of sales increased by 10.3% to $12.8 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2017 from $11.6 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2016. Non-GAAP1 cost of sales increased by 10.3% to $12.8 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2017 from $11.6 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2016. The increase was primarily due to expenses associated with Xiamen NetinNet, as well as increased salaries and related expenses, lecture fees, and cost of books and reference materials. This increase was partially offset by decreased rental and related expenses, and other miscellaneous expenses.

Gross Profit. Gross profit increased by 50.4% to $19.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2017 from $12.8 million in the prior year period. Non-GAAP1 gross profit increased by 50.2% to $19.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2017 from $12.8 million in the prior year period. Gross margin was 59.9% in the first quarter of fiscal 2017, compared with 52.3% in the first quarter of fiscal 2016. Non-GAAP1 gross margin was 60.1% in the first quarter of fiscal 2017, compared with 52.5% in the first quarter of fiscal 2016.

Operating Expenses. Total operating expenses increased by 24.5% to $11.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2017 from $9.4 million in the prior year period. Non-GAAP1 total operating expenses increased by 25.9% to $11.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2017 from $8.9 million in the prior year period.

Selling expenses. Selling expenses increased by 32.5% to $7.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2017 from $5.4 million in the prior year period. Non-GAAP1 selling expenses increased by 32.6% to $7.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2017 from $5.4 million in the prior year period. The increase was primarily driven by increased salaries and related expenses, and increased advertising and promotional expenses, together with expenses associated with Xiamen NetinNet. This increase was partially offset by decreased commissions to online agents.

General and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses increased by 13.6% to $4.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2017 from $4.0 million in the prior year period. Non-GAAP1 general and administrative expenses increased by 15.7% to $4.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2017 from $3.5 million in the prior year period. The increase was mainly due to expenses associated with Xiamen NetinNet, as well as increased professional fees.

Income Tax Expense. Income tax expense increased by 136.6% to $2.4 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2017 from $1.0 million in the prior year period, primarily due to an increase in taxable income.

Net Income. As a result of the foregoing, net income increased by 108.3% to $8.6 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2017 from $4.1 million in the prior year period. Non-GAAP1 net income increased by 96.0% to $9.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2017 from $4.6 million in the prior year period.

Operating Cash Flow. Net operating cash inflow increased by 33.6% to $16.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2017 from $12.3 million in the prior year period. The operating cash inflow was mainly attributable to net income before non-cash items generated in the first quarter of fiscal 2017. The increase in accrued expenses and other liabilities, and deferred revenue also contributed to the operating cash inflow. This operating cash inflow was partially offset by the increase in prepayment and other current assets, and decrease in income tax payable and refundable fees.

Cash and Cash Equivalents, Term Deposits, Restricted Cash and Short-term Investments. Cash and cash equivalents, term deposits, restricted cash and short-term investments as of December 31, 2016 increased by 50.4% to $106.1 million from $70.5 million as of September 30, 2016, mainly due to cash flow of $16.5 million generated from operating activities in the first quarter of fiscal 2017, and proceeds from the Zhengbao Yucai share issuance plan of $12.2 million. This increase was partially offset by capital expenditures of $0.9 million and payments for certain strategic investments of $1.6 million.

Outlook

For the second quarter of fiscal 2017, the Company expects to generate total net revenue in the range of $21.7 million to $22.9 million, representing a year-over-year decline of approximately 10% to 5%.

The earlier-than-anticipated release of exam results for certain healthcare examinations resulted in the recognition of $3.1 million of net revenue, for the related healthcare premium courses, in first quarter fiscal 2017. If the release of exam results for the aforementioned healthcare examinations occurred in second quarter fiscal 2017 as originally expected, the adjusted second quarter fiscal 2017 net revenue expectation would have been $3.1 million higher, or in the range of $24.8 million to $26.0 million, representing year-over-year growth of 2.7% to 7.7%.

The above guidance reflects the Company’s current and preliminary view, which is subject to change.

Statements that are not historical facts, including statements about the Company’s beliefs and expectations, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties. A number of factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement, including but not limited to the following: goals and growth strategies; future prospects and market acceptance of the Company’s courses and other products and services; future business development and results of operations; projected revenues, profits, earnings and other estimated financial information; projected enrollment numbers; plans to expand and enhance courses and other products and services; competition in the education and test preparation markets; and Chinese laws, regulations and policies, including those applicable to the Internet, Internet content providers, the education and telecommunications industries, mergers and acquisitions, taxation and foreign exchange.

Further information regarding these and other risks is included in the Company’s annual report on Form 20-F and other documents filed or furnished with the SEC. All information provided in this press release is as of the date of this press release. The Company does not undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statement, except as required under applicable law.

Statement Regarding Unaudited Financial Information

The unaudited financial information set forth in this press release 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. However, non-GAAP financial measures may not be indicative of the Company’s 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 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.
