“I am delighted to report that we achieved an excellent quarter with record revenue and profit,” said Mr. Shaoyun Han, Tarena’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Revenue growth was again driven by increase in student enrollments and higher average revenue per student. Our digital art course continued its tremendous growth to remain as our second largest course by student enrollments in the second quarter of 2014. Our online sales and marketing course, which only launched in the fourth quarter of 2013, also experienced strong growth and has already become our fourth largest course, behind Java, digital art and C++. Such strong enrollment results further validated our differentiated education platform, as well as our strategy to diversify our course offerings and revenues by expanding into other high growth disciplines.”

“More importantly, we achieved significant year-over-year improvements in gross margin and operating margin and delivered even stronger growth in operating income. We will continue to execute on our objective and priority for 2014 in improving our center efficiency and utilization to drive sustainable growth in both revenue and profit, “continued Mr. Han.

“In the second quarter of 2014, the Chinese State Council issued ‘The Decision to Accelerate Modern Vocational Education’ in order to encourage the further development of the professional education market and to bridge the structural gap between the demand for and supply of skilled workforce. The number of college graduates in China has risen to a record high of 7.3 million in 2014 and the employment market is becoming increasingly competitive. As a leading professional education service provider with premium brand and reputation, Tarena is well positioned to capture the opportunities presented by this favorable market environment to drive our future growth.” Mr. Han concluded.

Mr. Suhai Ji, Tarena’s Chief Financial Officer, added, “In addition to our solid top line results, we are pleased to see continued strong margin improvement in the second quarter of 2014 as gross margin increased by 300 basis points year-over-year to 71.2% and non-GAAP operating margin increased by 610 basis points year-over-year to 15.9%. We are delivering on the objective we set at the beginning of the year to drive margin expansion in 2014. In the coming quarters, we will remain focused on optimizing our learning center utilization and improving key operating metrics to generate both growth and profitability.”

Second Quarter 2014 Results

Net Revenues

Net revenues increased by 53.4% to US$31.9 million in the second quarter of 2014, from US$20.8 million in the same period in 2013. The increase was primarily due to increased student enrollments and higher average revenue per student, as defined by net revenues divided by student enrollment.

Total student enrollments in the second quarter of 2014 increased by 35.6% to 15,377 from 11,341 in the same period in 2013, which was driven mainly by the number and the popularity of our course offerings. The number of our course offerings increased from 9 to 11 in the second quarter year-over-year while the number of our learning centers increased from 76 to 103 in the same period year-over-year to cater to the increased demand for our courses.

Average revenue per student in the second quarter of 2014 increased by 13.1% to US$2,089 from US$1,847 in the same period in 2013. The growth in average revenue per student was mainly driven by the increase of standard tuition fees for our courses and the higher percentage of retail channel in our student enrollment channel mix. Beginning in the second quarter of 2014, we raised the standard tuition fees on some of our courses by RMB1,000 (US$163) per course. While we typically charge students enrolled through the retail channel the standard tuition fee, we generally offer students enrolled through the university channel a discount of approximately RMB4,000 (US$650) per person per course. Our student enrollment mix from retail and university channel was 81%/19% and 72%/28% in the second quarter of 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Cost of Revenues

Cost of revenues increased by 39.2% to US$9.2 million in the second quarter of 2014, from US$6.6 million in the same period in 2013. The increase was mainly due to higher rental cost resulting from increased number of learning centers and expansion of existing learning centers, higher personnel cost and welfare expenses resulting from increased number of teaching and advisory staff at our learning centers and higher average salary, as well as higher depreciation expenses for our learning centers.

Gross Profit and Gross Margin

Gross profit increased by 60.0% to US$22.7 million in the second quarter of 2014, from US$14.2 million in the same period in 2013. Gross margin increased to 71.2% in the second quarter of 2014 from 68.2% in the same period in 2013. The improvement in gross margin was mainly due to increased operational scale and efficiency for our learning centers. Personnel cost and welfare expenses decreased to 10.7% of total net revenues in the second quarter of 2014, from 12.9% in the same period in 2013. Rental expenses decreased to 8.8% of total net revenues in the second quarter of 2014, from 9.5% in the same period in 2013.

Operating Expenses

Total operating expenses increased by 54.6% to US$19.1 million in the second quarter of 2014, from US$12.4 million in the same period in 2013 as a result of increases in our selling and marketing, general and administrative and research and development expenses. Total non-GAAP operating expenses, which excluded share-based compensation expenses, increased by 45.1% to US$17.7 million in the second quarter of 2014, from US$12.2 million in the same period in 2013. Total share-based compensation expenses allocated to the related operating expenses increased by 728.9% to US$1.4 million in the second quarter of 2014, from US$0.2 million in the same period in 2013.

Selling and marketing expenses increased by 34.3% to US$10.3 million in the second quarter of 2014, from US$7.7 million in the same period in 2013. The increase was due to higher personnel cost and welfare expenses related to the growth in our selling and marketing headcount and higher average salary, and expanded marketing efforts primarily as a result of increased spending on advertising as we expanded our network of learning centers. Selling and marketing expenses in the second quarter of 2014 accounted for 32.2% of the total net revenues, compared to 36.8% in the same period in 2013. Advertising and marketing expenses in the second quarter of 2014 accounted for 13.1% of the total net revenues, compared to 16.7% in the same period in 2013.

General and administrative expenses increased by 101.8% to US$7.4 million in the second quarter of 2014, from US$3.7 million in the same period in 2013. The increase was mainly due to higher compensation cost for our increased number of general and administrative personnel to support our growing operations, higher bad debt allowance, higher share-based compensation expenses, and to a lesser extent, higher professional expenses. General and administrative expenses in the second quarter of 2014 accounted for 23.3% of the total net revenues, compared to 17.7% in the same period in 2013. Non-GAAP general and administrative expenses, which excluded share-based compensation expenses, increased by 74.1% to US$6.2 million, from US$3.5 million in the same period in 2013. Non-GAAP general and administrative expenses in the second quarter of 2014 accounted for 19.3% of total net revenues, compared to 17.0% in the same period in 2013.

Research and development expenses increased by 37.1% to US$1.4 million in the second quarter of 2014, from US$1.0 million in the same period in 2013. The increase was mainly due to higher personnel cost and welfare expenses of our instructors allocated to their content development activities for our courses. Research and development expenses in the second quarter of 2014 accounted for 4.3% of total net revenues, compared to 4.8% in the same period in 2013.

Operating Income

Operating income increased by 95.4% to US$3.6 million in the second quarter of 2014, from US$1.9 million in the same period in 2013. Operating margin increased to 11.4% in the second quarter of 2014 as compared to 8.9% in the same period in 2013. Non-GAAP operating income, which excluded share-based compensation expenses, increased by 149.9% to US$5.1 million in the second quarter of 2014, from US$2.0 million in the same period in 2013. Non-GAAP operating margin increased to 15.9% in the second quarter of 2014 as compared to 9.8% in the same period in 2013.

Interest Income, Net

Net interest income was US$1.0 million in the second quarter of 2014, compared to US$0.5 million in the same period in 2013. Interest income in both periods consisted of interest earned on our cash and time deposits in commercial banks and interest income recognized in relation to our installment payment plan for students. The increase in net interest income was primarily due to higher deposit levels resulting from the Company’s IPO proceeds in April 2014.

Foreign Exchange Gain/Loss

Foreign exchange gain was US$0.8 million in the second quarter of 2014, compared with a loss of US$0.1 million in the same period in 2013. The increase was primarily attributable to the appreciation of China’s RMB against U.S. dollar when a significant portion of the Company’s IPO proceeds was converted into RMB and placed in bank deposits.

Other Income

Other income in the second quarter of 2014 was US$1.0 million, consisting of US$0.8 million in government grant and US$0.2 million in investment income, compared to almost nil in the same period in 2013. The increase was attributable to government grants of RMB5 million received in the second quarter of 2014 and the investment income of short-term wealth management products purchased in the second quarter of 2014.

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense was US$0.7 million in the second quarter of 2014, compared to US$0.4 million in the same period in 2013. The increase was mainly due to higher taxable income, partially offset by a decrease in the effective income tax rate to 10.5% in the second quarter of 2014 from 17.8% in the same period in 2013. The decrease in the effective income tax rate was primarily due to a tax holiday of a two-year full exemption from 2014 to 2015 followed by a three-year 50% exemption from 2016 to 2018 entitled by one of our wholly owned subsidiaries which is qualified as a “Newly Established Software Enterprise” under the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law.

Net Income

As a result of the foregoing, net income increased by 204.5% to US$5.7 million in the second quarter of 2014, from US$1.9 million in the same period in 2013. Non-GAAP net income, which excluded share-based compensation expenses, increased by 249.1% year-over-year to US$7.2 million from US$2.1 million in the same period in 2013.

Business Outlook

Based on the Company’s current estimates, total net revenues for the third quarter of 2014 are expected to be between US$38.5 million and US$39.5 million, representing an increase of 35.1% to 38.6% on a year-over-year basis. The Company also expects its total net revenues for the full year of 2014 to be between US$134.5 million and US$136.0 million, representing an increase of 44.9% to 46.6% on a year-over-year basis.

This guidance is based on the current market conditions and reflects the Company’s current and preliminary estimates of market and operating conditions, which are subject to change.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement Tarena’s consolidated financial results presented in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), Tarena’s management uses non-GAAP measures of cost of revenues, operating expenses, operating income, net income, and net income per share, which are adjusted from results based on GAAP to exclude the share-based compensation expenses.

Our non-GAAP financial information provide meaningful supplemental information regarding its performance and liquidity by excluding share-based expenses that may not be indicative of its operating performance from a cash perspective. These non-GAAP financial information should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results. In addition, calculation of the non-GAAP financial measures may be different from the calculation used by other companies, and therefore comparability may be limited.

A limitation of using non-GAAP cost of revenues, operating expenses, operating income and net income is that the share-based compensation charge has been and will continue to be a significant recurring expense in the Company’s business for the foreseeable future. In order to mitigate these limitations the Company has provided specific information regarding the GAAP amounts excluded from each non-GAAP measure. The accompanying tables include details on the reconciliation between GAAP financial measures that are most directly comparable to the non-GAAP financial measures the Company has presented.

Notes:

(a) The Company uses the two-class method to calculate basic and diluted earnings per share. Under the two-class method, when calculating the basic and dilutive EPS, net income attributable to ordinary shareholders is adjusted to reflect the net income which is allocated to preferred shares.

(b) The Non-GAAP net income(loss) per share is computed using Non-GAAP net income(loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders and the same number of ordinary shares used in GAAP basic and diluted net income(loss) per share calculation.
