attributable to New Oriental on a non-GAAP basis that excludes share-based compensation expenses to
provide 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) 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.

Michael Yu, New Oriental's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "We are pleased to finish our 2013 fiscal year by recording strong revenue growth of 26.6% and substantial operating income growth of 122.5% in the fourth fiscal quarter. We are particularly encouraged that operating margin from continuing operations for the fourth fiscal quarter improved dramatically to 10.2% from 5.8% in the same period a year ago, which is an advance of 440 basis points year-on-year. Our stellar financial results in the third and fourth fiscal quarters demonstrate how we have successfully pivoted from our 'Occupy the Market' strategy towards our 'Harvest the Market' strategy. Since commencing this strategic transition in November 2012, we have driven improvements in bottom line performance by slowing our pace of expansion and closing over 50 underperforming learning centers. We have also reduced total headcount by over 3,600 in the last three quarters to approximately 30,700 by the end of our fiscal year from 34,300 at the end of the first fiscal quarter. Heading into fiscal year 2014, we will continue to focus on implementing the 'Harvest the Market' strategy, and we are confident that this will enable us to continue delivering improvements in operational efficiency and overall profitability."

Mr. Yu added, "New Oriental is recognized as the market leader in teaching quality and course content, as demonstrated by our dominance in brand awareness and preference surveys in large Chinese cities in K-12 after school tutoring and overseas test preparation, and we will continue to invest heavily in extending our market leading position. For example, we are rapidly moving our content platform online and enhancing its functionality so that it can be easily accessed from mobile devices and personal computers. As a result of this multi-year initiative, our Koolearn.com online platform is already the leading education website among K-College learners, with over 8.5 million registered users in China. Consistent with the saying "Content is King" our strategy is to become the content provider of choice for online education platforms in China."

Louis T. Hsieh, New Oriental's President and Chief Financial Officer, commented, "In the full fiscal year 2013, we recorded total net revenues of US$959.9 million, representing a 27.4% increase year-over-year. This excellent top line performance was driven by continued strong growth in our two main business lines. Our overseas test preparation and overseas study consulting businesses recorded combined year-over-year gross revenue growth of about 28% to approximately US$350 million during the fiscal year, while our K-12 all-subjects after-school tutoring business recorded year-over-year gross revenue growth of about 40% to approximately US$411 million in fiscal year 2013."

Mr. Hsieh continued, "Student enrollments grew by 6.1% to approximately 559,000 in the fourth fiscal quarter and by 5.7% to approximately 2,540,000 for the full fiscal year 2013. This was in line with our expectation for the period, as we transitioned towards the 'Harvest the Market' strategy. The deceleration in student enrollment growth rate compared to the previous fiscal year was largely due to two factors. First, we have strictly controlled the pace of expansion and closed or disposed of 73 underperforming learning centers during fiscal year 2013. Second, we continue to see a shift in market demand towards smaller classes and VIP formats, which have one teacher to a maximum of five students. As a result, enrollments in our large class formats have declined by about 200,000 from a peak of about 1.125 million in fiscal year 2011, when the large classes representing approximately 60% of educational services enrollments, to about 925,000 for fiscal year 2013, representing approximately 40% of educational services enrollments. Nevertheless, overall enrollment growth remains healthy and for the full fiscal year 2014 we are targeting continued strong revenue growth of approximately 18% to 22% driven by growth in enrollment and ASPs, and the continued shift in demand toward more expensive, smaller-size classes. Furthermore, we expect that the enrollment growth rate will pick up once again in the second half of fiscal year 2014 when we plan to open between 20 and 50 new learning centers in rapidly growing markets to take advantage of the busy Winter and Spring seasons. These are the peak periods for our classes aimed at students taking the Chinese college entrance exam, gaokao, and high school entrance exam, zhongkao, both of which are administered in early June each year."

Declaration of Special Cash Dividend

New Oriental's board of directors has declared a special cash dividend in the amount of US$0.35 per ADS. This represents a 17% increase from the special dividend of US$0.30 paid in September 2012. The cash dividend will be paid on October 7, 2013, to shareholders of record at the close of business on September 6, 2013. The ex-dividend date will be September 4, 2013. The aggregate amount of cash dividends to be paid is approximately US$54 million, which will be funded by surplus cash on the Company's balance sheet.

Financial Results for the Fourth Fiscal Quarter Ended May 31, 2013

For the fourth fiscal quarter of 2013, New Oriental reported net revenues of US$239.6 million, representing a 26.6% increase year-over-year.

Net revenues from educational programs and services for the fourth fiscal quarter were US$202.6 million, representing a 25.6% increase year-over-year. The growth was mainly driven by an increase in student enrollments in academic subjects tutoring and test preparation courses, as well as an increase in average selling prices resulting from price increases and an increase in the number of 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 2013 increased by 6.1% year-over-year to approximately 559,000 from approximately 527,000 in the same period of the prior fiscal year.

Operating costs and expenses for the quarter were US$215.3 million, a 20.8% increase year-over-year. Non-GAAP operating costs and expenses, which exclude share-based compensation expenses, for the quarter were US$208.3 million, a 21.9% increase year-over-year.

Cost of revenues increased by 24.3% year-over-year to US$94.1 million, primarily due to increases in the number of courses being offered and the number of schools and learning centers in operation.

Selling and marketing expenses increased by 9.1% year-over-year to US$36.7 million, primarily due to an increase in the number of customer service representatives. Actual brand and market promotion expenses declined approximately 4.5% year-over-year to approximately US$16.0 million.

General and administrative expenses for the quarter increased by 22.5% year-over-year to US$84.5 million. Non-GAAP general and administrative expenses, which excludes share-based compensation expenses, were US$77.5 million, a 26.0% increase year-over-year, primarily due to an increase in general operational expenses in line with the Company's expansion of its network of schools and learning centers as compared to the year-ago period.

Total share-based compensation expenses, which were allocated to related operating costs and expenses, decreased by 6.1% to US$7.0 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2013 from US$7.5 million in the same period of the prior fiscal year.

Capital expenditures for the quarter were US$7.7 million, which were primarily attributable to the opening of 9 new learning centers and renovations at older, existing learning centers.

As of May 31, 2013, New Oriental had cash and cash equivalents of US$417.2 million, as compared to US$514.4 million as of February 28, 2013. In addition, the Company had US$50.0 million in term deposits and US$505.0 million in short-term investment at the end of the quarter. Net operating cash flow for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2013 was approximately US$102.6 million.

New Oriental's 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 2013 was US$332.2 million, an increase of 23.3% as compared to US$269.4 million at the end of the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2012.

Net revenues from educational programs and services for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2013 were US$857.7 million, representing a 27.0% increase year-over-year. The growth was mainly driven by an increase in student enrollments in academic subjects tutoring and test preparation courses, as well as an increase in average selling prices resulting from price increases and an increase in the number of students selecting more expensive, smaller class options.

Total student enrollments in academic subjects tutoring and test preparation courses for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2013, increased by 5.7% year-over-year to approximately 2,540,300 from approximately 2,402,400 for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2012.

Outlook for First Quarter of Fiscal Year 2014

The Company plans to continue its 'Harvest the Market' strategy in fiscal year 2014, focusing on high-quality, high-margin revenues to aggressively drive continued margin expansion and bottom line growth and to position the business for long term success.

Consistent with this strategy, in fiscal year 2014 New Oriental forecasts revenues to grow by 18% to 22% year-on-year, GAAP operating margins to improve between 200 and 300 basis points to between 15% and 16% compared to 12.8% in fiscal year 2013, and non-GAAP operating margins to increase to between 18% and 19% compared to 15.6% in fiscal year 2013.

With respect to the first quarter, New Oriental expects total net revenues in the first quarter of fiscal year 2014 (June 1, 2013, to August 31, 2013) to be in the range of US$389.6 million to US$406.4 million, representing year-over-year growth in the range of 16% to 21%. This lower than normal projected revenue growth rate reflects the anticipated impact on the Company's top-line performance of efficiency and margin expansion initiatives as well as certain macroeconomic factors. More specifically, it reflects:

  1. The closure or disposal of 73 underperforming learning centers during fiscal year 2013.
  2. The fact that no new learning centers have been opened to date in the first fiscal quarter through July 22, 2013, compared to the 89 new learning centers opened in the first quarter of fiscal year 2013.
  3. Intensifying local competition particularly in large cities such as Beijing and Shanghai.
  4. The slowing Chinese economy which has adversely affected discretionary consumer purchases notwithstanding the fact that high end educational services remain more resilient than most other discretionary consumer categories.

This forecast reflects New Oriental's current and preliminary view, which is subject to change.

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.
