Operating Highlights for the Third Fiscal Quarter Ended February 29, 2020

•

Total student enrollments in academic subjects tutoring and test preparation courses increased by 2.3% year-over-year to approximately 1,606,100 for the third fiscal quarter of 2020.

•

The total number of schools and learning centers was 1,416 as of February 29, 2020, an increase of 252 compared to 1,164 as of February 28, 2019, and an increase of 112 compared to 1,304 as of November 30, 2019. The total number of schools was 99 as of February 29, 2020.

Michael Yu, New Oriental’s Executive Chairman, commented, “Despite the challenges posed by the outbreak of COVID-19 in China, we recorded a top line growth of 15.9%, or 18.7% if measured in Renminbi for the third quarter of fiscal year 2020. The K-12 after-school tutoring business recorded a year-over-year revenue growth of approximately 24%, or 27% if measured in Renminbi. Furthermore, our U-Can middle and high school all-subjects after-school tutoring business grew by approximately 23%, or 26% if measured in Renminbi, while our POP Kids program achieved a growth of approximately 26%, or 29% if measured in Renminbi. From the end of January, we stopped the operation of all learning centers nationwide and effectively moved our offline classes to small size online live broadcasting classes through the self-developed OMO (online merging offline) system, which has played a fundamental role in cushioning the impact on our service and operation. We estimate that the COVID-19 pandemic negatively impacted our top line growth by 8% to 10% for this quarter, as we experienced higher-than-normal refund rates from cancellations and deferments in enrollments for the winter classes from registered students in February. Due to the recent outbreak of COVID-19 pandemics around the globe, we expect the impact on our business as well as the entire education industry in China will last over the coming one to two quarters, especially on overseas related businesses including test preparation and consulting business, which have been unavoidably affected by cancellation of overseas exams, suspension of overseas schools and restrictions on travels. That said, on the other hand, we are also seeing an effective control of the pandemic in China and are pleased to hear the announcement of public school resumption plans which have shed a positive light on our business domestically.”

Mr. Yu continued, “Although we are facing the negative impacts from the pandemics for the near term, we remain committed to ensuring the best learning experience and teaching quality to our customers during the challenging time. We remain optimistic of a brighter prospects of our business over the long run. We are confident that with New Oriental’s leading brand, superior education product and system and the best teacher resources, we will keep taking market share and continue to be a leader in China’s huge after-school tutoring and training market.”

Chenggang Zhou, New Oriental’s Chief Executive Officer, added, “During the third fiscal quarter, notwithstanding the challenges to daily operations posed by the COVID-19 outbreak, we remained committed to carry out our expansion plan during the quarter and we added a net of 110 learning centers in existing cities and two new training schools in the city of Zhangjiagang and Nanjing. By the end of this quarter, the total square meters of classroom area increased by approximately 30% year-over-year, 11% quarter-over-quarter and 21% comparing with the end of fiscal year 2019. As we expect the industry will undergo a wave of market consolidation once the COVID-19 pandemic fades as certain players may lack financial and digital capabilities to sustain their operations, we believe our fresh offline facilities and strong financial capacity will prepare us to further take market share and strengthen our market-leading position and penetration.”

Mr. Zhou continued, “Thanks to our continuous effort in upgrading our OMO system in recent years, we accomplished a prompt migration from offline classroom teaching to online live broadcasting for all customers with online class size the same as offline classes and interactive features highly similar to offline classes. This enabled us to minimize the impact posed by the COVID-19 outbreak and achieve such encouraging results this quarter. We will continue to upgrade our technology platforms and broaden the usage of online tools and content in our OMO system for all business lines throughout the whole network, as well as further develop the best teaching content and courseware to cater to online and offline integrated education method. At the same time, we will provide more advanced training programs to our teachers to enhance their online and offline integrated teaching skills in response to the growing demand.”

Stephen Zhihui Yang, New Oriental’s Chief Financial Officer, commented, “Due to the negative impact from the COVID-19 pandemic, our gross margin for the quarter was 56.8%, down 80 basis points year-over-year. Our Non-GAAP operating margin for the quarter was 14.6%, up 30 basis points year-over-year, and Non-GAAP net margin for the quarter was 16.1%, up 240 basis points year-over-year. In addition to the direct impact on bottom line from the 8% to 10% shortage of revenue growth, we also incurred some incremental IT cost to support the migration of offline classes to online. In order to minimize the negative impact from the COVID-19 pandemic on our bottom line, we actively adjusted our operational strategy and made more efforts on cost control and reducing expenditures, especially for business lines facing bigger negative impact in the near term. We believe that our continuous efforts will sustain us through the crisis and hopeful that the adverse effects on our business from the pandemic will subside gradually.”

Financial Results for the Third Fiscal Quarter Ended February 29, 2020

Net Revenues

For the third fiscal quarter of 2020, New Oriental reported net revenues of US$923.2 million, representing a 15.9% increase year-over-year. Net revenues from educational programs and services for the third fiscal quarter were US$845.7 million, representing a 16.3% increase year-over-year. The growth was mainly driven by increases in student enrollments in academic subjects tutoring and test preparation courses in the recent two quarters.

Total student enrollments in academic subjects tutoring and test preparation courses in the third fiscal quarter of 2020 increased by 2.3% year-over-year to approximately 1,606,100. The lower-than-normal increase in the number of student enrollments is primarily due to a big portion of enrollments for the winter semester falling into the second fiscal quarter because of the earlier timing of Chinese New Year this year compared with last year, as well as the higher-than-normal cancelation for winter classes. The outbreak of COVID-19 has also caused challenges on acquiring new customers in the second half of the quarter while the enrollment for classes in Q4 and summer classes have also been delayed.

Operating Costs and Expenses

Operating costs and expenses for the quarter were US$806.0 million, representing a 15.0% increase year-over-year. Non-GAAP operating costs and expenses for the quarter, which exclude share-based compensation expenses, were US$788.4 million, representing a 15.4% increase year-over-year.

•

Cost of revenues increased by 18.1% year-over-year to US$398.6 million, primarily due to increases in teachers’ compensation for more teaching hours and higher rental costs for the increased number of schools and learning centers in operation.

•

Selling and marketing expenses increased by 35.2% year-over-year to US$118.2 million, primarily due to a significant increase of promotion expenses derived from offering free large size online live broadcasting classes to the public. Another reason is the addition of a number of customer service representatives and marketing staff with the aim of capturing the new market opportunity during COVID-19 pandemic, especially for new initiatives in K-12 tutoring on our pure online education platform, Koolearn.com.

•

General and administrative expenses for the quarter increased by 4.8% year-over-year to US$289.1 million. Non-GAAP general and administrative expenses, which exclude share-based compensation expenses, were US$273.3 million, representing a 5.9% increase year-over-year.

The projected decline of revenue in our functional currency Renminbi is expected to be in the range of 4% to 0% for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2020.

We expect the impact on our business from the outbreak of COVID-19 pandemics around the globe will continue during our fourth fiscal quarter, especially on overseas related businesses including test preparation and consulting business. The exchange rate used to calculate expected revenues for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2020 is 7.07.

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 and gain / (loss) from fair value change of long-term investments, operating income excluding share-based compensation expenses, operating cost and expenses excluding share-based compensation expenses, general and administrative expenses excluding share-based compensation expenses, operating margin excluding share-based compensation expenses, and basic and diluted net income per ADS and per share excluding share-based compensation expenses and gain / (loss) from fair value change of long-term investments.

New Oriental believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding its performance and liquidity by excluding share-based compensation expenses and gain / (loss) from fair value change of long-term investments that may not be indicative of its operating performance from a cash

perspective.

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 and gain / (loss) from fair value change of long-term investments 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.
