NetEase.com Reports Second Quarter 2007
Unaudited Financial Results
(Beijing – August 14, 2007) – NetEase.com, Inc. (NASDAQ: NTES), one of China’s leading Internet and online game services providers, today announced its unaudited financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2007.
William Ding, Chief Executive Officer and Director of NetEase stated, “Despite relatively flat game revenues quarter-over-quarter, we are aligning the right balance of resources with our long-standing MMORPG expertise and market leadership to build and diversify our game portfolio for near-term growth. Open beta testing for Westward Journey Online III, the upgraded version of Westward Journey Online II, is scheduled to begin in August 2007, and we plan to release an expansion pack for Fantasy Westward Journey during the fourth quarter of 2007. We are also making positive progress with our programming and design improvements for Tianxia II.”
Mr. Ding continued, “With respect to our portal business, our expanded content on our news, sports and entertainment channels has enabled us to maintain our momentum in traffic growth. We remain confident about our future opportunity through our focused channel content and email service strategies.”
Second Quarter 2007 Financial Results
Total revenues for the second quarter of 2007 were RMB558.0 million (US$73.3 million), compared to RMB554.6 million (US$72.9 million) and RMB575.3 million (US$75.6 million) for the preceding quarter and the second quarter of 2006, respectively.
Revenues from online games were RMB475.1 million (US$62.4 million) for the second quarter of 2007, compared to RMB481.9 million (US$63.3 million) and RMB486.0 million (US$63.8 million) for preceding quarter and the second quarter of 2006, respectively.

Revenues from advertising services were RMB65.3 million (US$8.6 million) for the second quarter of 2007, compared to RMB56.2million (US$7.4 million) and RMB68.8 million (US$9.0 million) for the preceding quarter and the second quarter of 2006, respectively.
Revenues from wireless value-added services and others were RMB17.5 million (US$2.3 million) for the second quarter of 2007, compared to RMB16.6 million (US$2.2 million) and RMB20.5 million (US$2.7 million) for the preceding quarter and the second quarter of 2006, respectively.
Gross profit for the second quarter of 2007 was RMB437.8 million (US$57.5 million), compared to RMB430.1 million (US$56.5 million) and RMB457.4 million (US$60.1 million) for the preceding quarter and the second quarter of 2006, respectively. The quarter-over-quarter increase in gross profit was primarily due to higher advertising services revenue in the second quarter of 2007. The year-over-year decrease in gross profit was mainly due to a decrease in all revenue segments as a result of more intense competition in the PRC internet industry.
Gross margin for the online game business for the second quarter of 2007 was 90.2%, compared to 89.6% and 90.7% for the preceding quarter and the second quarter of 2006, respectively. The quarter-over-quarter increase primarily resulted from operational cost savings which more than offset a decrease in online game revenues in the second quarter of 2007. The year-over-year decrease was primarily driven by a decrease in online game services revenue from Westward Journey Online II and higher staff-related costs as a result of an increase in headcount.
Gross margin for the advertising business for the second quarter of 2007 was 47.2%, compared to 35.7% and 49.8% for the preceding quarter and the second quarter of 2006, respectively. The quarter-over-quarter increase in gross margin was primarily driven by the seasonal increase in advertising spending coupled with savings in content costs in the second quarter of 2007. The year-over-year decline in gross margin was primarily due to decreased advertising services revenue as a result of increased competition.
Gross loss margin for the wireless value-added services and others business for the second quarter of 2007 was 28.1%, compared to gross loss margin of 36.1% and 2.3% for the preceding quarter and the second quarter of 2006, respectively. The quarter-over-quarter improved gross loss margin was primarily due to increased revenues from online fee-based premium services supplied to registered users of the NetEase websites, including premium matchmaking and dating services and product sales generated from registered users. The year-over-year decline in gross margin was primarily driven by a decrease in revenue from wireless services.
Total operating expenses for the second quarter of 2007 were RMB142.8 million (US$18.8 million), compared to RMB117.7 million (US$15.5 million) and RMB134.3 million (US$17.6 million) for the preceding quarter and the second quarter of 2006, respectively. The quarter-over-quarter increase was primarily due to an additional provision for doubtful debts of RMB2.0 million (US$0.3 million) made during the second quarter of 2007, compared to a reversal of provision for doubtful debts of approximately RMB8.2 million (US$1.1 million) as a result of the collection of outstanding accounts receivables with respect to the advertising business during the first quarter of 2007. The increase was also due to increased selling and marketing costs of RMB6.5 million (US$0.9 million) in relation to the marketing of Tianxia II, Westward Journey III and seasonal promotional activities during the second quarter of 2007 and an increase in research and development costs of RMB4.8 million (US$0.6 million) associated with the increased staffing for enhancing existing products and developing new products. The year-over-year increase was mainly due to an increase in selling and marketing costs, higher staff-related costs as a result of an increase in headcount and increased depreciation charges.

Net profit for the second quarter of 2007 totaled RMB312.6 million (US$41.1 million), compared to RMB301.5 million (US$39.6 million) and RMB314.1 million (US$41.3 million) for the preceding quarter and the second quarter of 2006, respectively. In June 2007, the Company received a reinvestment incentive tax refund of RMB24.4 million (US$3.2 million), which significantly reduced the Company’s income tax expense for the second quarter of 2007. NetEase reported basic and diluted earnings per American depositary shares (ADS) of US$0.33 and US$0.31 for the second quarter of 2007, respectively. The Company reported basic and diluted earnings per ADS of US$0.31 and US$0.29 and US$0.32 and US$0.29 for the preceding quarter and the second quarter of 2006, respectively.
Other Information
As of June 30, 2007, the Company’s total cash and time deposit balance was RMB3.0 billion (US$391.5 million), compared to RMB3.9 billion (US$517.3 million) and RMB3.6 billion (US$474.4 million) as of December 31, 2006 and June 30, 2006, respectively. In addition, there was a restricted cash balance of RMB761.6 million (US$100.1 million) as of June 30, 2007 primarily related to the Company’s committed revolving loan facility. The loan facility can be used by the Company at its discretion to fund any redemption requests made by the holders of its zero coupon convertible subordinated notes in accordance with the terms of those notes. Cash flow generated from operating activities was approximately RMB331.0 million (US$43.5 million) for the second quarter of 2007, compared to RMB283.0 million (US$37.2 million) and RMB296.5 million (US$39.0 million) for the preceding quarter and the second quarter of 2006, respectively.
On March 13, 2007, the Company’s Board authorized a share repurchase program of up to US$100 million of the Company’s outstanding ADSs for a period not to exceed three months. When the share repurchase program ended on June 12, 2007, the Company had spent in aggregate a total purchase consideration of approximately US$95.7 million (including transaction costs). With respect to the separate share repurchase program of up to US$120 million authorized by the Company’s Board on July 2, 2007, at July 31, 2007 the Company had spent in aggregate a total purchase consideration of approximately US$5.6 million (including transaction costs). The share repurchase program will end on July 1, 2008.
