NetEase Reports Second Quarter 2012

Unaudited Financial Results

 

(Beijing — August 15, 2012) — NetEase, Inc. (NASDAQ: NTES), one of China’s leading Internet and online game services providers, today announced its unaudited financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2012.

 

William Ding, Chief Executive Officer and Director of NetEase, stated, “We place great emphasis on setting standards of excellence for China’s Internet audience. The merits of this strategy can be found in our continued growth and loyalty in our user base. For the second quarter of 2012, our total revenues increased 12.7% year-over-year, with online games growing by 10.8% and advertising services increasing by 20.4%.”

 

“In the second quarter, we continued to advance our self-developed games with certain standout performances. Ghost achieved record revenue in May, gaining traction from its open beta testing launch in April. Fantasy Westward Journey demonstrated a stable increase in revenue driven by positive user response to new content for this game.  During the second quarter, we also launched open beta testing for Tianxia III, as well as releasing new expansion packs for Warsong of Westward Journey in April, Heroes of Tang Dynasty in May and Westward Journey Online II at the end of June. We expect the effect from the new launches for our self-developed games to be reflected in upcoming periods.”

 

“Although playing time for Blizzard Entertainment’s World of Warcraft® declined during the second quarter, leading to a quarter-over-quarter decrease of online game revenues, World of Warcraft continues to have a very enthusiastic community of players in China. We look forward to releasing Blizzard’s Mists of Pandaria, the fourth expansion pack for World of Warcraft, as soon as possible to build on the game’s large and passionate player base in China.”

“In the second half of the year, we will focus on launching several new games and introducing expansion packs to existing games such as Fantasy Westward Journey, Tianxia III, Ghost and Westward Journey Online III. Our newest games under development are progressing well. In response to growing market demand for action games, we launched initial closed beta testing for two such games in July: Kung Fu Master, formerly called Wu Hun, as well as Soul of the Fighter, formerly called Soul of Warrior. Early feedback for both games has been encouraging, and we are preparing for their commercial launch in the second half of the year. In addition, our next generation 3D MMORPG Dragon Sword and 3D action real-time strategy game Heroes of Three Kingdoms are being developed to the highest standards of quality, and we will be performing technical tests this year to obtain user feedback on those games.”

 

“Content innovation, new product development as well as service integration among mobile platforms continues to attract new advertising customers. Revenues from advertising services grew 42.3% quarter-over-quarter, led by the automobile, fast moving consumer goods and financial services sectors. Our recent focus has been on high profile sporting events, such as Euro Cup 2012 and the London Olympics. In the second quarter, we were pleased to secure a strategic partnership with China Network Television to broadcast the London Olympic Games as well as the opening and closing ceremonies on our portal and our top-ranking mobile news application.”

 

“Mobile access and the introduction of new attractive content are contributing to continued user growth in our portal and e-mail business. In the second quarter, the registered number of users for our micro-blogging service increased by 48.8% sequentially to 180 million.  Mailbox services also increased to 495 million registered users as of June 30, 2012. We continue to advance both services by introducing new content and enhancing the user experience to broaden our existing community.”

 

“Our robust games portfolio, industry leading portal and growing search business are built on the success of providing a highly differentiated platform that caters to quality and optimizing user experience. We continue to build our products and services to meet customers’ demands for new content with a robust pipeline of games and activities planned for the second half of the year,” Mr. Ding concluded.

 

Second Quarter 2012 Financial Results

 

Revenues

Total revenues for the second quarter of 2012 were RMB2.0 billion (US$315.5 million), compared to RMB2.0 billion and RMB1.8 billion for the preceding quarter and the second quarter of 2011, respectively.

 

Revenues from online games were RMB1.7 billion (US$275.3 million) for the second quarter of 2012, compared to RMB1.8 billion and RMB1.6 billion for the preceding quarter and the second quarter of 2011, respectively.

 

Revenues from advertising services were RMB204.2 million (US$32.1 million) for the second quarter of 2012, compared to RMB143.5 million and RMB169.6 million for the preceding quarter and the second quarter of 2011, respectively.

Revenues from e-mail, wireless value-added services and others (“E-mail, WVAS and others”) were RMB51.4 million (US$8.1 million) for the second quarter of 2012, compared to RMB39.6 million and RMB30.7 million for the preceding quarter and the second quarter of 2011, respectively.

 

Gross Profit

Gross profit for the second quarter of 2012 was RMB1.3 billion (US$208.0 million), compared to RMB1.3 billion and RMB1.2 billion for the preceding quarter and the second quarter of 2011, respectively.

 

The year-over-year increase in gross profit was primarily attributable to increased revenues from NetEase’s online game business. The year-over-year increase in online game revenues was primarily driven by increased revenues from the Company’s self-developed games, Ghost, Fantasy Westward Journey and Tianxia III, which was partially offset by a decline in revenue from Blizzard Entertainment’s World of Warcraft.

 

Gross Profit (Loss) Margin

Gross profit margin for the online game business for the second quarter of 2012 was 73.3%, compared to 73.0% and 70.2% for the preceding quarter and the second quarter of 2011, respectively.

 

Gross profit margin for the advertising business for the second quarter of 2012 was 33.0%, compared to 19.8% and 43.9% for the preceding quarter and the second quarter of 2011, respectively. The quarter-over-quarter increase in gross profit margin was primarily due to an increase in advertising revenues. The year-over-year decrease in gross profit margin was primarily due to increased headcount-related costs and video content costs incurred in the second quarter of 2012.

 

Gross loss margin for the E-mail, WVAS and others business for the second quarter of 2012 was 11.6%, compared to 18.0% and 7.8% for the preceding quarter and the second quarter of 2011, respectively. The quarter-over-quarter change was mainly due to improved performance from NetEase’s e-commerce business in the second quarter of 2012.

 

Operating Expenses

Total operating expenses for the second quarter of 2012 were RMB437.7 million (US$68.9 million), compared to RMB355.7 million and RMB365.8 million for the preceding quarter and the second quarter of 2011, respectively. The quarter-over-quarter increase in operating expenses was mainly due to increased selling and marketing promotional activities related to open beta testing launched in the second quarter of 2012 for Ghost and Tianxia III, and increased research and development expenses related to product development. The year-over-year increase in operating expenses was primarily due to increased headcount-related costs included in general and administrative expenses and research and development expenses.

 

Net Profit

Net profit for the second quarter of 2012 totaled RMB875.3 million (US$137.8 million), compared to RMB941.7 million and RMB772.5 million for the preceding quarter and the second quarter of 2011, respectively.

During the second quarter of 2012, the Company reported a net foreign exchange loss of RMB36.0 million (US$5.7 million), compared to a net foreign exchange gain of RMB17.6 million and a net foreign exchange loss of RMB3.0 million for the preceding quarter and the second quarter of 2011, respectively. The quarter-over-quarter and year-over-year changes in foreign exchange gains and losses were mainly due to the translation gains and losses arising from the Company’s Euro-denominated bank deposit balances as of June 30, 2012 as the exchange rate of the Euro against the RMB fluctuated over the periods.

 

NetEase reported basic and diluted earnings per ADS of US$1.05 each for the second quarter of 2012. The Company reported basic and diluted earnings per ADS of US$1.13 each for the preceding quarter, and reported basic and diluted earnings per ADS of US$0.93 each for the second quarter of 2011.

 

Income Taxes

The Company recorded a net income tax charge of RMB149.5 million (US$23.5 million) for the second quarter of 2012, compared to RMB163.1 million and RMB92.4 million for the preceding quarter and the second quarter of 2011, respectively. The effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2012 was 14.8%, compared to 14.9% and 10.9% for the preceding quarter and the second quarter of 2011, respectively.

 

The Company’s various principal subsidiaries renewed their qualifications as High and New Technology Enterprises in 2011, and enjoy the preferential enterprise income tax rate of 15% from 2011 to 2013, subject to annual review by the relevant tax authorities in China.

 

The year-over-year increase in effective tax rate was primarily due to the expiration of the enterprise income tax exemption period for certain subsidiaries that were qualified as Software Enterprises, which resulted in an increase in their applicable tax rate from 0% to 12.5%.

 

Other Information

 

As of June 30, 2012, the Company’s total cash and time deposits balance was RMB13.8 billion (US$2.2 billion), compared to RMB11.9 billion as of December 31, 2011. Cash flow generated from operating activities was RMB880.9 million (US$138.7 million) for the second quarter of 2012, compared to RMB1.3 billion and RMB995.0 million for the preceding quarter and the second quarter of 2011, respectively.
