Mr. Gordon Lau, Chief Financial Officer, concluded, “The continued growth of our business and focus on higher value-added solutions and services allowed us to deliver healthy margin expansion in the fourth quarter and full year. Furthermore, we believe additional margin enhancement is attainable given the growing scalability of our business and increasing operational leverage.  In light of our strong performance and the continuing demand for our IT services in China, we expect to achieve 2011 full-year net revenue of approximately US$250 million and adjusted net income attributable to Camelot of approximately US$42 million.”

USE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

To supplement the unaudited consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, Camelot uses the non-GAAP (“adjusted”) financial measures of gross profit and margin, operating expenses, operating income and margin, net income attributable to Camelot Information Systems Inc. and margin, and diluted earnings per share and diluted earnings per ADS, which are adjusted from results based on U.S. GAAP to exclude share-based


 
 

 


compensation, acquisition-related intangible amortization, gain from extinguishment of liability, postponed initial public offering costs, and changes in fair value of contingent consideration. The non-GAAP financial measure is provided as additional information to help our investors compare business trends among different reporting periods on a consistent basis and to enhance investors’ overall understanding of our current financial performance and prospects for the future. The non-GAAP financial measure should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to U.S. GAAP results. In addition, our calculation of the non-GAAP financial measure may be different from the calculation used by other companies, and therefore comparability may be limited.
