  1. New Oriental provides net income attributable to New Oriental, operating income, and net income per ADS attributable to New Oriental on a Non-GAAP basis that excludes share-based compensation expenses and the Disposal Loss of subsidiaries to reflect meaningful supplemental information regarding its operating performance. For more information on these Non-GAAP financial measures, please see the section captioned "About Non-GAAP Financial Measures" and the tables captioned "Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Measures to the Most Comparable GAAP Measures" set forth at the end of this release.
  2. Each ADS currently represents four common shares. Effective on August 18, 2011, New Oriental will adjust the ratio of its ADS representing common shares from one ADS for four common shares to one ADSs for one common share.
  3. The Non-GAAP adjusted net income per share and per ADS are computed using Non-GAAP adjusted net income and the same number of shares and ADSs used in GAAP basic and diluted EPS calculation.

"We are pleased to end our 2011 fiscal year with another stellar quarter, recording strong revenue growth of 58.7% as well as substantially higher profit growth of 147.8%. In fact, excluding the Disposal Loss recorded in the quarter for the divestment of two subsidiaries, net profit growth would have increased over 174% to over US$15.8 million and operating income growth would have increased over 227% to approximately US$12 million," said Michael Yu, New Oriental's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.

Mr. Yu continued, "We achieved several important milestones during our fiscal year 2011 with revenues of over US$500 million, up more than 44%, net profit of over US$100 million, up more than 30%, and student enrollments of over 2 million, up more than 15%. This is particularly exciting given that we invested heavily in the business in fiscal year 2011, adding 120 schools and learning centers, and that we started the fiscal year with the Shanghai World Expo negatively impacting first fiscal quarter performance with revenue growth of just 28.8%, net income growth of 9.3%, and student enrollment growth of 8.8%. In the final three quarters of fiscal year 2011, we successfully turned around our financial performance, with revenues up over 54%, net income up over 90%, and student enrollments up over 19% compared to the same nine-month period in the previous year. We have strong momentum going into fiscal year 2012 and we are very confident in both New Oriental's market leading position in the Chinese education and training market and our long-term business prospects."

Louis T. Hsieh, New Oriental's President and Chief Financial Officer, commented, "We are extremely pleased with the record level of demand for our educational programs and services with annual revenues re-accelerating in fiscal year 2011 to over US$550 million, up more than 44%, compared to revenue growth of 32% in fiscal year 2010. This record top-line performance was led by continued strength in our three key business segments. First, enrollment in our overseas test preparation programs grew by more than 23% to over 317,000 year-over-year, while gross revenues grew by more than 55% to over US$166 million year-over-year. Second, enrollment in our middle and high school English and U-Can all-subjects training programs grew by about 30% to over 472,800 year-over-year, while gross revenues grew by over 65% to about US$116 million year-over-year. Third, enrollment in our POP Kids programs grew by about 34% to over 581,500 year-over-year, while gross revenues grew by about 52% to over US$77 million year-over-year. Given the growth of U-Can and POP Kids programs, our K-12 all-subjects after-school tutoring business recorded year-over-year enrollment growth of 32% to over one million and year-over-year gross revenue growth of about 60% to about US$193 million. On top of the success of these three key business segments, our one-teacher-to-maximum-five-students VIP personalized classes experienced explosive growth in fiscal year 2011 with enrollment growth of more than 73% to over 63,500 and year-over-year cash revenue growth of more than 154% to over US$120 million."

Mr. Hsieh continued, "Although enrollment growth in the fourth fiscal quarter of 11.9% to over 489,000 appears below average for New Oriental, this is not indicative of any demand slowdown. Rather it was primarily the result of difficult year-over-year comparisons due to the late timing of Chinese New Year last year which fell on February 14, 2010ï¼OEand pushed enrollments from the third fiscal quarter ended February 28, 2010, to the fourth fiscal quarter in fiscal year 2010. In 2010, students returned to their primary school studies and enrolled in New Oriental after-school tutoring classes in early March, in the fourth fiscal quarter, instead of late February, in the third fiscal quarter. Consequently, we experienced enrollment growth of 32.4% to over 437,000 in the fourth fiscal quarter of last year, making year-over-year comparisons very challenging in this fourth fiscal quarter. This year, Chinese New Year fell on February 3, 2011, a more traditional calendar, allowing students to enroll in New Oriental Spring tutoring classes at the end of February, in the third fiscal quarter. In fact, demand for New Oriental classes remains quite robust for the Summer quarter as evidenced by our record deferred revenue balance of over US$194 million, up over 81% year-over-year, at the end of our 2011 fiscal fourth quarter."

Four-for-One ADS Ratio Change

New Oriental will change the ratio of its American depositary shares to Common Shares from one (1) ADS representing four (4) Common Shares to one (1) ADS representing one (1) Common Share, effective on August 18, 2011.

New Oriental ADS holders as of the close of business on August 17, 2011, will receive three additional ADSs for each ADS then held. The effect of this ratio change on the ADS price is expected to take place on August 19, 2011.

For New Oriental's ADS holders, this ratio change will have the same effect as a four-for-one stock split. There will be no change to New Oriental's underlying common shares. Furthermore, no action by ADS holders is required to effect the ratio change.

Disposal of Mingshitang School and Tomorrow Oriental

During the fourth quarter of 2011, New Oriental disposed of Beijing Haidian Mingshitang Exam Training Education School ("Mingshitang School"), a Beijing-based private school that specializes in tutoring students seeking to retake the "gaokao", the Chinese college entrance examination. In April 2011, the Company disposed of 60% equity interest in Mingshitang School to Mr. Ma Yonggang, the principal of Mingshitang School. New Oriental also disposed of Beijing Tomorrow Oriental Technology Co., Ltd. ("Tomorrow Oriental"), a subsidiary providing software development services. In May 2011, the Company disposed of 100% equity interest in Tomorrow Oriental to Mr. Huang Binliang, the general manager of Tomorrow Oriental. New Oriental recorded disposal losses of US$1.2 million and US$0.4 million in respect of the disposal of Mingshitang School and Tomorrow Oriental, respectively.

Financial Results for the Fiscal Quarter Ended May 31, 2011

For the fourth fiscal quarter of 2011, New Oriental reported net revenues of US$137.4 million, representing a 58.7% increase year-over-year.

Net revenues from educational programs and services for the fourth fiscal quarter were US$120.4 million, representing a 62.1% increase year-over-year. The growth was mainly driven by an increase in the number of student enrollments in academic subjects tutoring and test preparation courses, and higher average selling prices resulting from price increases and students selecting more expensive, smaller class options. Total student enrollments in academic subjects tutoring and test preparation courses in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2011 increased by 11.9% year-over-year to approximately 489,100, from approximately 437,200 in the same period of the prior fiscal year.

Operating costs and expenses for the quarter were US$127.0 million, a 53.1% increase year-over-year. Non-GAAP operating costs and expenses, which exclude share-based compensation expenses and Disposal Loss, for the quarter, were US$122.0 million, a 53.2% increase year-over-year.

Cost of revenues increased by 55.9% year-over-year to US$56.7 million, primarily due to the increased number of courses and the greater number of schools and learning centers in operation.

Selling and marketing expenses increased by 29.9% year-over-year to US$22.6 million, primarily due to an increase in the number of customer service representatives and marketing staff.

General and administrative expenses for the quarter increased by 58.1% year-over-year to US$46.2 million. Non-GAAP general and administrative expenses, which exclude share-based compensation expenses, were US$43.0 million, a 65.6% increase year-over-year, primarily due to increased headcount as the Company expanded its network of schools and learning centers.

Total share-based compensation expenses, which were allocated to related operating costs and expenses, increased by 4.4% to US$3.4 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2011, from US$3.3 million in the same period of the prior fiscal year.

Income from operations for the quarter was US$10.4 million, a 185.3% increase from US$3.7 million in the same period of the prior fiscal year. Non-GAAP income from operations, which excludes share-based compensation expenses and the Disposal Loss, for the quarter was US$15.4 million, a 122.1% increase from US$6.9 million in the same period of the prior fiscal year.

Operating margin for the quarter was 7.6%, compared to 4.2% in the same period of the prior fiscal year. Non-GAAP operating margin, which excludes share-based compensation expenses and the Disposal Loss, for the quarter was 11.2%, compared to 8.0% in the same period of the prior fiscal year. This rise was primarily due to improved operating efficiency as revenue growth outpaced the growth in operating costs and expenses.

Net income attributable to New Oriental for the quarter was US$14.3 million, representing a 147.8% increase from the same period of the prior fiscal year. Basic and diluted earnings per ADS attributable to New Oriental were US$0.37 and US$0.37, respectively.

Non-GAAP net income attributable to New Oriental for the quarter was US$19.2 million, representing a 113.0% increase from the same period of the prior fiscal year. Non-GAAP basic and diluted earnings per ADS attributable to New Oriental were US$0.50 and US$0.49, respectively.

Capital expenditures for the quarter were US$7.3 million, which were primarily used to add a net of 31 schools and learning centers.

As of May 31, 2011, New Oriental had cash and cash equivalents of US$317.3 million, as compared to US$348.0 million as of February 28, 2011. In addition, New Oriental had US$152.7 million in term deposits and US$143.7 million in short term investments as of May 31, 2011. Net operating cash flow for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2011 was approximately US$71.6 million.

The deferred revenue balance, which is cash collected from registered students for courses and recognized proportionally as revenue as the instructions are delivered, at the end of the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2011 was US$194.3 million, an increase of 81.5% as compared to US$107.1 million at the end of the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2010.

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 Disposal Loss, operating income excluding share-based compensation expenses and Disposal Loss, operating costs and expenses excluding share-based compensation expenses and Disposal Loss, general and administrative expenses excluding share-based compensation expenses, operating margin excluding share-based compensation expenses and Disposal Loss, and basic and diluted net income per ADS and per share excluding share-based compensation expenses and Disposal Loss. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures, please see the tables captioned "Reconciliations of non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP measures" set forth at the end of this release.

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 Disposal Loss that may not be indicative of its operating performance from a cash perspective or our ongoing operations. New Oriental believes that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing its performance and when planning and forecasting future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate management's internal comparisons to New Oriental's historical performance and liquidity. 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 that has been and will continue to be for the foreseeable future a significant recurring expense in our business in the case of share-based compensation charge. In addition, although Disposal Loss was one-time charge and thus is not indicative of New Oriental's ongoing operations, New Oriental cannot exclude the possibilities that similar events may occur in the future which will require similar charges being recorded. 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.
