Second Quarter Fiscal 2012 Operational Highlights

 

   

Schools and kindergartens network was 51 (excluding franchise network) and enrollment was over 16,500, as the commissioning of schools and kindergartens and enrollment trend are tied in with school terms, which begin in September and February in each calendar year

Commenting on the results, Dong Xu, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Noah, said, “We are very pleased to see strong momentum continuing in the second quarter with revenue growth exceeding guidance. The robust performance reflected an anticipated strength in the business across-the-board.

“Our revenue mix has changed with an increased weight of kindergarten services after the acquisition of Yuanbo Education (“Yuanbo”), and the new opening of schools and kindergartens that were in the midst of ramping up was reflected in the fluctuations in gross margins. Nevertheless, we are pleased to see progress in our utilization and performance enhancement,” he said.

Mr. Xu continued, “Despite concerns about softening growth in the Chinese economy, the education services sector demonstrated its resilience on the back of favorable economic, social and cultural factors. Having just successfully transformed into an education services company, Noah has already built a strong foundation, and we will continue to solidly execute on our growth strategy focusing on three pillars: kindergartens, private primary and secondary schools and supplemental education services, to achieve profitable and sustainable growth.

“In the next quarter, as the opening schedule of new schools and kindergartens is tied in with school terms which usually begins in February and September in each calendar year, the network will remain unchanged. We will be focusing on ramping up existing schools and kindergartens and will also accelerate integration in order to enhance operating efficiency. Our revenue in the next quarter will remain strong despite our expectations to experience an impact from the winter break for Chinese New Year, as some of the schools and kindergartens do not charge tuition fee for a month during the break. This has been reflected in our guidance as the business model is predictable and we are fully confident in meeting our full year guidance. In addition to sustaining the momentum of the businesses to pursue organic growth, we are diligently pursuing acquisition opportunities with our strong cash position to continue to enhance shareholder values in the long term.” he concluded.

Commenting on the financials, Dora Li, Chief Financial Officer, said, “We are in expansion mode as seven schools and kindergartens are still in ramp-up stage with less than two years operating history, and we are making good progress in increasing enrollment and improving utilization. We expect overall gross margin to improve as they reach full capacities. To keep future growth momentum, we will continue to reinvest to ramp up our schools and kindergartens, and we expect that gross margin will continue to be over 45% on an annual basis in the fiscal year.”

She remarked, “During the quarter, our operating profit and margin were impacted by one-off compensation expenses related to the resignation of management personnel. Excluding the one-off impact, we made pleasing progress in trending down our operating expenses to revenue as we expanded our revenue base and achieved operating leverage. We are optimistic in continuing to see a similar trend on an annual basis.”

Second Quarter Fiscal Year 2012 Unaudited Financial Results

Net revenue

Net revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2012 increased 112.9% to RMB44.9 million (US$7.1 million) from RMB21.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2011, driven mainly by the organic growth in existing Wentai Education (“Wentai”) and Little New Star (“LNS”) segments, and a full-quarter revenue contribution from Yuanbo. Net revenue from Wentai was RMB24.4 million (US$3.9 million), accounting for 54.5% of net revenue, compared with RMB12.7 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2011. LNS also showed solid growth with revenue increasing 24.1% year-over-year to RMB10.4 million (US$1.7 million), accounting for 23.2% of net revenue. Net revenue from Yuanbo was RMB10.0 million (US$1.6 million).

In terms of the breakdown of services, revenue from kindergartens for the second quarter of fiscal 2012 was RMB22.5 million (US$3.6 million), accounting for 50.1% of net revenue, and represents a year-over-year increase of 316.7%. Revenue from primary and secondary schools was RMB15.0 million (US$2.4 million), accounting for 33.4% of net revenue, and represents a year-over-year increase of 56.3%. Revenue from supplemental education, which includes English training courses and sale of teaching materials, was RMB7.4 million (US$1.2 million), accounting for 16.5% of net revenue, and represents a year-over-year increase of 21.3%.

Gross profit and gross profit margin

Gross profit for the second quarter increased 95.4% year-over-year to RMB20.0 million (US$3.2 million) from RMB10.2 million. The increase in gross profit was primarily driven by the continued strong growth of Wentai and LNS, along with the contribution from Yuanbo, which was newly acquired in first quarter of fiscal 2012.

Gross profit margin was 44.5%, compared with 48.5% in the second quarter of fiscal 2011, and 47.5% in the first quarter of fiscal 2012. The decline was mainly due to a change in revenue mix as kindergartens, which have a lower gross margin, accounted for 50.1% of total revenue in the current quarter, compared with 25.6% in the second quarter of fiscal 2011.

Operating expenses

Operating expenses for the second quarter totaled RMB25.9 million (US$4.1 million), a year-over-year increase of 39.9% from RMB18.5 million. The increase in operating expenses was a result of one-off compensation expenses related to management resignation, and incremental expenses contributed by Yuanbo. As a percentage of net revenue, operating expenses were 57.8%, compared to 87.9% in the same period in fiscal 2011. Excluding one-off compensation expenses related to management resignation, operating expenses for the quarter were RMB23.2 million, a year-over-year increase of 25%, which accounted for 51.6% of net revenue.

Research and development (“R&D”) expenses for the second quarter increased 38.1% year-over-year to RMB0.8 million (US$0.1 million) from RMB0.6 million. The increase in R&D expenses was mainly attributable to an increased staff cost to further enhance the content of the Dudu Happy Reading program. As a percentage of net revenue, R&D expenses were 1.7%, compared to 2.7% in the second quarter of fiscal 2011. The Company will continue to invest in R&D to strengthen their teaching material and content development capabilities while consolidating their efforts to achieve operational leverage.

Sales and marketing (“S&M”) expenses for the second quarter increased 68.9% year-over-year to RMB1.7 million (US$0.3 million) from RMB1.0 million. The increase in S&M expenses primarily reflected the increase in advertising expenses for the promotion of the brands operated by the Company. As a percentage of net revenue, S&M expenses were 3.7%, compared to 4.7% in the same period in fiscal 2011. With the continued expansion of revenue, S&M expenses as a percentage of revenue is expected to maintain at a similar level in fiscal 2012.

General and administrative (“G&A”) expenses for the second quarter increased 39.4% year-over-year to RMB23.5 million (US$3.7 million) from RMB16.9 million. The increase was in part attributable to the incremental expenses arising from Yuanbo during the quarter, and in part due to an approximately RMB2.8 million one-off compensation expense related to management resignation. As a percentage of net revenue, G&A expenses were 52.3%, compared to 79.9% in the same period in fiscal 2011. Excluding the one-off compensation expense, G&A expenses for the quarter increased by 23.1% year-over-year, and accounted for 46.1% of total revenue. The lower percentage of G&A expenses to net revenue primarily reflected the improvement of the Company’s operational leverage with the expansion of revenue scale.
