China Finance Online Co. Limited Reports 2011 First Quarter Financial Results
Beijing, China, June 16, 2011 — China Finance Online Co. Limited (“China Finance Online”, or the
“Company”) (NASDAQ GS: JRJC), the technology-driven, user-focused market leader in China in
providing vertically integrated financial services and products including news, data, analytics and
brokerage-related services through web portals, desktop solutions and mobile handsets, today
announced its unaudited financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2011.
2011 First Quarter Financial Highlights
| |
• |
|
Net revenues were $15.0 million, compared with $15.2 million for the first quarter of
2010; |
| |
| |
• |
|
Net income attributable to China Finance Online was $1.4 million with diluted GAAP
earnings per ADS of $0.06 for the first quarter of 2011, compared
with a net income of $0.14
million and diluted GAAP earnings per ADS of $0.01 in the first quarter of 2010; |
| |
| |
• |
|
Excluding share-based compensation expenses, non-GAAP net income attributable to China
Finance Online in the first quarter of 2011 was $1.9 million with diluted non-GAAP earnings
per ADS of $0.08, compared with a non-GAAP net income of $1.8 million and diluted non-GAAP
earnings per ADS of $0.08 in the first quarter of 2010; |
| |
| |
• |
|
Annual guidance for net revenues revised down from $58 million to $55 million and
non-GAAP net income from $3 million to a loss of $1 million in light of weakening investor
sentiment regarding the languishing Chinese stock market and the impact of new Chinese
regulations on both the Company’s revenues and costs. |
First quarter Results
Net revenues for the first quarter of 2011 were $15.0 million, compared with $15.2 million for the
first quarter of 2010 and $14.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2010. The lower net revenues were
mainly due to lower subscription business from individual investors in light of unfavorable
macroeconomic developments and their impact on the Chinese stock market and a longer-than-expected
transition period for the Company to adapt to the new Provisional Regulations on Securities
Investment Advisory Business decreed by China Securities Regulatory Commission (CSRC). In
particular, according to the new regulations, which became effective on January 1, 2011, securities
advisory software businesses should be regarded as a securities investment advisory business, and
therefore are subject to laws and regulations with respect to securities investment advisory
services. As a NASDAQ-listed public company, China Finance Online has historically been the
industry leader in regulatory compliance. The Company is now devoting more resources and procedures
to ensure its internal compliance standards remain higher than the new industry standard set forth
by the recent regulations.
The main sources of the Company’s net revenues were from subscription fees from individual
customers, subscription fees from institutional customers, advertising revenues and revenues from
brokerage-related services, which contributed 80%, 4%, 8% and 7%, respectively, to total revenues
compared with 82%, 4%, 11%, and 3% for the comparable period in 2010. Revenues from subscription
fees paid by individual customers, which can be prone to stock market performance and sentiment,
decreased 3.9% year-over-year in the first quarter of 2011. Decline in revenue from individual
subscription reflects the current diminished investor confidence in China, and the impact of CSRC’s
new regulations on securities advisory software business. Under the new regulations, the Company
now faces, among other things, additional limitations on its sales and marketing activities and its
stock advisory software services, heightened requirements for its subscriber intake process and
other regulations that have impacted the core subscription business. Institutional subscription
revenues increased 17.5% year-over-year and revenues from brokerage-related services increased
132.3% year-over-year. The increase in the Company’s Daily Growth’s brokerage related services was
mainly attributable to commissions on securities placing transactions and margin related interest
income.
For the first quarter of 2011, gross profit was $12.7 million compared with $13.3 million for the
comparable period in 2010. Gross margin for the first quarter of 2011 was 85.0% compared with 87.5%
for the first quarter of 2010, and 84.1% for the fourth quarter of 2010. The year-over-year
increase in cost of revenue was mainly due to the increase in costs to procure information and data
including the incurrence of Level-2 quote expenses associated with the Shenzhen Stock Exchange,
which did not exist in the first quarter of 2010.
General and administrative (“G&A”) expenses for the first quarter of 2011 were $2.7 million, or
18.2% of net revenues, down from $4.2 million, or 27.4% of net revenues for the comparable period
in 2010. The decrease in G&A expenses, excluding share-based compensation expenses, in both
absolute value and as a percentage of net revenues from the first quarter of 2010 was primarily due
to a decrease in payroll costs as the Company continues to streamline operations through efficiency
enhancements. Excluding share-based compensation expenses of $0.4 million, adjusted G&A expenses
for the first quarter of 2011 were $2.3 million, or 15.4% of net revenues, compared with $2.6
million, or 17.2% of net revenues in the first quarter of 2010.
Sales and marketing expenses for the first quarter of 2011 were $5.6 million compared with $6.4
million in the first quarter of 2010. Sales and marketing expenses as a percentage of net revenues
were 37.4% in the first quarter of 2011, down from 41.8% during the same period in 2010. The
year-over-year decrease in sales and marketing expenses, excluding share-based compensation
expenses, in both absolute value and as a percentage of quarterly net revenues was primarily due to
lower marketing expenses and sales volume during the transition period as the Company adapts to the
new regulatory environment for individual subscription business.
Product development expenses for the first quarter of 2011 were $3.2 million, up from $3.0 million
in the same quarter in 2010. Product development expenses as a percentage of net revenues were
21.6%, up from 19.4% in the same quarter of the previous year. Management remains committed to
further investment in the Company’s data, product, internet, and technical capabilities.
Total operating expenses for the first quarter of 2011 were $11.5 million, down from $13.5 million
in the first quarter of 2010. Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses as a percentage
of net revenues decreased to 55.7% in the first quarter of
2011 from 69.2% in the first quarter of 2010. Excluding total share-based compensation expenses,
adjusted operating expenses were $11.0 million in the 2011 first quarter compared with adjusted
operating expenses of $11.9 million for the first quarter of 2010.
2
GAAP net income attributable to China Finance Online for the first quarter of 2011 was $1.4 million
with diluted GAAP net earnings per ADS of $0.06 compared with $0.14 million and diluted GAAP net
earnings per ADS of $0.01 in the 2010 first quarter. Non-GAAP net income attributable to China
Finance Online, which excluded the share-based compensation expenses, was $1.9 million for the 2011
first quarter, compared with a non-GAAP net income of $1.8 million for the same quarter of 2010.
Diluted non-GAAP net earnings per ADS attributable to China Finance Online were $0.08 for the first
quarter of 2011 compared with non-GAAP net earnings per ADS of $0.08 for the first quarter in 2010.
As of March 31, 2011, total cash, and cash equivalents and restricted cash were $112.4 million. As
of March 31, 2011, accounts receivable in non-margin related business was $3.6 million, in line
with the fourth quarter of 2010. Daily Growth’s margin-related accounts receivables increased to
$10.7 million from $8.1 million as of December 31, 2010 due to higher customer demand for margin
financing. Daily Growth continues to implement strict margin accounts screening and ongoing
monitoring to ensure the safe return of capital.
The Company’s total shareholders’ equity was $108.4 million as of March 31, 2011, compared with
$105.9 million as of December 31, 2010.
The combined current and non-current deferred revenues at the end of the first quarter of 2011,
which represented prepaid service fees made by customers for subscription services that have not
been rendered as of March 31, 2011, were $39.8 million.
As of March 31, 2011, registered user accounts on the Company’s web portals (jrj.com and
stockstar.com) as well as customer accounts for Daily Growth Securities increased to approximately
21.4 million and 2,380, respectively. Meanwhile, the number of active paid subscribers was
approximately 151,000 at March end, 2011, compared with 156,000 at the end of the previous quarter.
The decrease in active paid subscribers reflected a combination of macroeconomic and industry
factors including the underperforming Chinese stock market and new regulatory environment.
The Company continues to maintain healthy growth in registered users and customers accounts for
Daily Growth. While remaining committed on future growth, the Company is also starting to focus
more on client service to drive up core subscription business and explore more fee-based service
opportunities to individual investors in China. Starting from the next fiscal quarter ending on
June 30, 2011, the Company will discontinue disclosing the number of registered users and the
number of brokerage customers as part of the operation metrics but will continue to disclose active
paid subscriber figures, which we believe to be more relevant to the Company’s financials.

Business Outlook
In light of the weakening investor confidence in China’s domestic equity markets and CSRC’s new
regulations which impact the both the Company’s revenues and costs, the Company provides updated
net revenues guidance of $55 million for fiscal year 2011. Non-GAAP net income, which is defined as
net income excluding share-based compensation expenses and non-cash goodwill and investment
impairment, for the 2011 year is anticipated to be a loss of $1 million.
The above forecast reflects the Company’s current views, which are subject to change. A number of
important factors that are subject to vagaries outside the Company’s control including, but not
limited to, overall Chinese macro-economic outlook, fluctuations in the Chinese stock market and
further regulatory changes, could cause the actual results to differ materially from those
contained in the above guidance.
Mr. Zhiwei Zhao, Chief Executive Officer of China Finance Online, commented, “We see a more
challenging external business environment. Domestic investor confidence remains low as concerns
about the sluggish Shanghai index and a slowdown in Chinese economic growth have caused investors
to scale back their stock market exposure. Meanwhile, the China Securities Regulatory Commission
(CSRC) is stepping up its regulatory reform of China’s securities investment advisory industry, and
in particular, the securities advisory software business. This is the first time for the government
to implement industry wide regulations of this sort. The evolving interactions between service
providers and the regulatory bodies necessary to gauge the effect and effectiveness of the new
regulations dictates a transition period that is taking longer than most industry participants,
including ourselves, had anticipated. Additionally, while we have proactively adapted our sales and
marketing strategies in the current environment, the timing of the new regulations in the midst of
a sluggish Chinese stock market has nevertheless weakened our customers’ confidence in stock
investment and their interest in our products and services, and has deterred their purchasing
decisions on subscription of our stock advisory software services.”
“We continue to improve our fundamentals in data capability, product development and customer
outreach. While we are streamlining our operations, we remain committed to our investment in new
product development and optimization of existing platforms. We believe our leading financial web
portals, vast and growing registered user base and ample cash position are critical assets we can
leverage for future customer conversion and strategic corporate expansion when markets normalize.
We also view the regulatory reform as overall being beneficial in standardizing the industry in the
long term to encourage healthy competition and higher professionalism. A stricter regulatory
environment would be advantageous for China Finance Online to leverage our industry leadership to
capitalize on China’s burgeoning wealth management sector and serve the country’s fast growing
population of affluent families.” Mr. Zhao concluded.
