BEIJING, May 18, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- China Distance Education Holdings Limited (NYSE: DL) ("CDEL", or the "Company"), a leading provider of online education in China focusing on professional education, today announced unaudited financial results for the second quarter of fiscal year 2017 ended March 31, 2017.

Second Quarter Fiscal 2017 Financial and Operational Highlights

  • Total course enrollments reached 651,000, an increase of 9.8% from the second quarter of fiscal 2016.
  • Cash receipts from online course registration were $35.0 million, an increase of 24.7% from the second quarter of fiscal 2016. Without the impact of the Renminbi depreciation against the U.S. Dollar, cash receipts from online course registration increased by 31.3% year-over-year in the second quarter of fiscal 2017.
  • Net revenue decreased by 9.5% to $21.9 million from $24.1 million in the prior year period, within the Company's guidance range of $21.7 million to $22.9 million. Xiamen NetinNet, which was acquired by the Company in May 2016, contributed net revenue from the sale of learning simulation software of $0.9 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2017.
  • Gross profit was $10.1 million, a decrease of 26.7% from $13.7 million in the prior year period.
  • Non-GAAP1 gross profit was $10.1 million, a decrease of 26.7% from $13.8 million in the prior year period.
  • Gross margin was 46.0%, compared with 56.9% in the prior year period. Non-GAAP1 gross margin was 46.2%, compared with 57.0% in the prior year period.
  • Operating loss was $2.1 million compared with operating income of $4.6 million in the prior year period.
  • Non-GAAP1 operating loss was $1.6 million compared with non-GAAP1 operating income of $5.1 million in the prior year period.
  • Net loss was $2.4 million compared with net income of $2.5 million in the prior year period.
  • Non-GAAP1 net loss was $1.9 million compared with non-GAAP1 net income of $3.0 million in the prior year period.
  • Basic and diluted net loss per American Depositary Share ("ADS") were $0.073, compared with basic and diluted net income per ADS of $0.073 for the second quarter of fiscal 2016. Each ADS represents four ordinary shares.
  • Basic and diluted non-GAAP1 net loss per ADS were $0.059, compared with basic and diluted non-GAAP1 net income per ADS of $0.088 and $0.087, respectively, for the second quarter of fiscal 2016.
  • Cash flow from operations decreased by 6.2% to $11.3 million from $12.0 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2016.

Mr. Zhengdong Zhu, Chairman and CEO of CDEL, said, "The second quarter revenue decline of 9.5% year-over-year was within our guidance range. Key factors contributing to the second quarter revenue decline include (i) the previously disclosed suspension of the Accounting Certificate Exam; (ii) the Tax Agent Qualification Exam being held only in November 2017, instead of both February and November in 2016, which will defer enrollments for the related courses to the second half of fiscal 2017; and (iii) lower cash receipts from licensed pharmacist test preparation premium courses in fiscal 2016, resulting in a year-over-year decline in revenue that was recognized in the second quarter of fiscal 2017 upon the release of the licensed pharmacist exam results in the second quarter. Although the above factors in aggregate significantly impacted our second quarter revenue, we are pleased to report that our cash receipts from online course registration grew 24.7% year-over-year in the second quarter, driven primarily by strong growth in cash receipts in our accounting and healthcare verticals. We are also pleased to report that for the six month period ending March 31, 2017, our total cash receipts from online course registration grew 12.9% year-over-year."

Mr. Zhu added, "In the second quarter, we continued to execute on our strategic growth initiatives, including mobile related products, Big Data solutions, College Cooperation Program, and employment guidance services for accounting professionals. In particular, our focus on employment guidance services for accounting professionals, which bundle accounting practical skills training and employment guidance services, is beginning to bear fruit. Furthermore, we look forward to pursuing complementary acquisition and strategic investment opportunities that will enhance our business model, and further our effort to position China Distance Education as the premier life-long learning partner for our students."

Mr. Mark Marostica, Co-Chief Financial Officer of CDEL, said, "As expected, the revenue decline in our second quarter resulted in a net loss in the quarter. The loss was partly due to the impact of Xiamen NetinNet in its seasonally weak second quarter and the foreign currency exchange loss. Given the strong growth in cash receipts from online course registration in the second quarter, we anticipate returning to profitability in our third quarter of fiscal 2017. With our peak enrollment season now underway, we aim to continue to proactively manage expenses while maintaining operating efficiency, with a goal of balancing our growth and profitability."

Second Quarter Fiscal 2017 Financial Results

Net Revenue. Total net revenue decreased by 9.5% to $21.9 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2017 from $24.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2016. Net revenue from online education services, books and reference materials, and other sources contributed 77.2%, 5.8% and 17.0%, respectively, of total net revenues for the second quarter of fiscal 2017.

Online education services. Net revenue from online education services decreased by 11.2% to $16.9 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2017 from $19.0 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2016. This decrease was mainly due to (i) the previously disclosed suspension of the Accounting Certificate Exam; (ii) the Tax Agent Qualification Exam being held only in November 2017, instead of both February and November in 2016, which will defer enrollments for the related courses to the second half of fiscal 2017; (iii) lower cash receipts from licensed pharmacist test preparation premium courses in fiscal 2016, resulting in a year-over-year decline in revenue that was recognized in the second quarter of fiscal 2017 upon the release of the licensed pharmacist exam results in the second quarter.

Books and reference materials. Net revenue from books and reference materials decreased by 19.2% to $1.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2017 from $1.6 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2016.

Other revenues. Net revenue from other sources increased by 4.2% to $3.7 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2017 from $3.6 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2016, primarily due to Xiamen NetinNet's revenue contribution of $0.9 million, partially offset by a decline in revenue from business start-up training services.

Cost of Sales. Cost of sales increased by 13.3% to $11.8 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2017 from $10.4 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2016. Non-GAAP1 cost of sales increased by 13.3% to $11.8 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2017 from $10.4 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2016. This increase was primarily due to expenses associated with Xiamen NetinNet, as well as increased salaries and related expenses. This increase was partially offset by decreased cost of books and reference materials.

Gross Profit. Gross profit decreased by 26.7% to $10.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2017 from $13.7 million in the prior year period. Non-GAAP1 gross profit decreased by 26.7% to $10.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2017 from $13.8 million in the prior year period. Gross margin was 46.0% in the second quarter of fiscal 2017, compared with 56.9% in the second quarter of fiscal 2016. Non-GAAP1 gross margin was 46.2% in the second quarter of fiscal 2017, compared with 57.0% in the second quarter of fiscal 2016.

Operating Expenses. Total operating expenses increased by 43.5% to $13.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2017 from $9.1 million in the prior year period. Non-GAAP1 total operating expenses increased by 46.0% to $12.6 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2017 from $8.7 million in the prior year period.

Selling expenses. Selling expenses increased by 60.7% to $8.4 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2017 from $5.2 million in the prior year period. Non-GAAP1 selling expenses increased by 61.0% to $8.4 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2017 from $5.2 million in the prior year period. The increase was primarily driven by increased salaries and related expenses, and increased advertising and promotional expenses, together with expenses associated with Xiamen NetinNet.

General and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses increased by 20.1% to $4.6 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2017 from $3.9 million in the prior year period. Non-GAAP1 general and administrative expenses increased by 23.2% to $4.2 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2017 from $3.4 million in the prior year period. The increase was mainly due to expenses associated with Xiamen NetinNet.

Income Tax Benefit /(Expense). Income tax benefit was $0.6 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2017 compared with income tax expense of $0.7 million in the prior year period, primarily due to the operating loss recorded in the second quarter.

Net Income /(Loss). As a result of the foregoing, net loss was $2.4 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2017 compared with net income of $2.5 million in the prior year period. Non-GAAP1 net loss was $1.9 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2017 compared with non-GAAP net income of $3.0 million in the prior year period.

Operating Cash Flow. Net operating cash inflow decreased by 6.2% to $11.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2017 from $12.0 million in the prior year period. The operating cash inflow was mainly attributable to the cash receipts from online course registration generated in the second quarter of fiscal 2017. This operating cash inflow was partially offset by the increase in prepayment and other current assets, and decrease in accrued expenses and other liabilities, and income tax payable.

Cash and Cash Equivalents, Term Deposits, Restricted Cash and Short-term Investments. Cash and cash equivalents, term deposits, restricted cash and short-term investments as of March 31, 2017 decreased by 6.1% to $99.6 million from $106.1 million as of December 31, 2016, mainly due to the dividend payment of $14.7 million, certain strategic investments of $3.8 million, and capital expenditures of $0.7 million. This decrease was partially offset by cash flow of $11.3 million generated from operating activities in the second quarter of fiscal 2017.

Statement Regarding Unaudited Financial Information

The unaudited financial information set forth in this press release is preliminary and subject to adjustments. Adjustments to the financial statements may be identified when audit work is performed for the year-end audit, which could result in significant differences from this preliminary unaudited financial information.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement the Company's consolidated financial results presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, the Company uses the following measures defined as non-GAAP financial measures: non-GAAP net income, operating income, gross profit, cost of sales, selling expenses, general and administrative expenses, net income margin, operating margin, gross profit margin and basic and diluted earnings per ADS and per share. 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 table captioned "Reconciliations of non-GAAP measures to comparable GAAP measures" set forth at the end of this release.

The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding its performance and liquidity by excluding share-based compensation expenses. However, non-GAAP financial measures may not be indicative of the Company's operating performance from a cash perspective. The Company believes that both management and investors benefit from 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 the Company's historical performance and liquidity. The Company computes its non-GAAP financial measures using the same consistent method from quarter to quarter. The Company 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 excluding share-based compensation expenses from the above-mentioned line items and presenting these non-GAAP measures is that such charges may continue to be for the foreseeable future a significant recurring expense in our business. Management compensates for this limitation by providing specific information regarding the GAAP amounts excluded from each non-GAAP measure. The accompanying table at the end of this release provides more detail on the reconciliations between GAAP financial measures that are most directly comparable to non-GAAP financial measures.
