Operating Highlights for the Third Fiscal Quarter Ended February 28, 2017

  • Total student enrollments in academic subjects tutoring and test preparation courses increased by 5.9% year-over-year to approximately 799,700 for the third fiscal quarter of 2017.
  • The total number of schools and learning centers was 803 as of February 28, 2017, an increase of 76 compared to 727 as of February 29, 2016, and an increase of 14 compared to 789 as of November 30, 2016. The total number of schools was 73 as of February 28, 2017.

Michael Minhong Yu, New Oriental's Executive Chairman, commented, "We are very pleased to deliver another strong quarter. We achieved both accelerated top-line growth and continued solid bottom-line performance in the third fiscal quarter, reflecting consistent progress in improving our product mix and brand recognition and a continued focus on optimizing operations across the business. Total net revenue growth was 26.2%, or 33.4% if computed using our functional currency Renminbi, which was ahead of expectations. The main driving force for this was the significant increase in student enrollments in the recent two quarters, which reached a year-over-year growth of 32% for the second and third quarters of fiscal year 2017. For our key revenue driver, K-12 all-subjects after-school tutoring business, the year-to-date 2017 momentum has been strong and continuing, with the revenue up approximately 41%, or 49% if computed using our functional currency Renminbi. Furthermore, our U-Can middle and high school all-subjects after-school tutoring business recorded revenue growth of approximately 36%, and the POP Kids program grew by approximately 52% year-over-year. It is also encouraging to see a continuing strong momentum in enrollments and RMB cash proceeds from student registrations in the first seven weeks of the fourth fiscal quarter, which grew by approximately 37% and 39% year-over-year."

Chenggang Zhou, New Oriental's Chief Executive Officer, added, "As we remain committed to our now well-proven "Optimize-the-Market" strategy, we have continued to make great strides in building out our online and offline integrated education ecosystem. During the third fiscal quarter, we added a net of ten learning centers in existing cities, opened a new kindergarten in Beijing, and rolled out three dual-teacher model schools in the city of Kaifeng, Cangzhou and Qinhuangdao in order to bring our offerings to more remote areas in China. Altogether, these added a total of approximately 71,100 square meters of classroom area, representing approximately 6% capacity expansion. At the same time, we continued to roll out the well-proven O2O integrated education system, including the new POP Kids program and U-Can Visible Progress System, in all existing cities, and continued to test the new O2O system for overseas test preparation business, including IELTS, TOEFL and SAT programs, in seven large cities in China. In addition, our pure online education platform, Koolearn.com, recorded a revenue growth of 19% year-over-year, with a 92% increase in paid users."

Stephen Zhihui Yang, New Oriental's Chief Financial Officer, commented, "We continued to make great progress in increasing operational efficiency, improving utilization of facilities and enhancing cost control in the quarter. Operating margin increased 90 basis points and net margin increased 140 basis points year-over-year. The continued strong bottom-line performance demonstrates the result of our consistent effort in creating sustainable long-term value for our customers and shareholders."

The growth was mainly driven by increases in student enrollments in academic subjects tutoring and test preparation courses in the recent two quarters.

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, operating income excluding share-based compensation expenses, operating costs 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. 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 that may not be indicative of its operating performance from a cash perspective. 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 computes its non-GAAP financial measures using the same consistent method from quarter to quarter. 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. 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.
