Q1 2008 Financial Results
Net Revenues:
During the first quarter of 2008, China Finance Online reported net revenues of $11.06 million, exceeding the high end of the Company's previously updated guidance of $10.50 to $10.80 million, compared to $4.0 million for the same period in 2007, and $8.88 million for the fourth quarter of 2007, up 177% year-over-year and 24% quarter-over-quarter. The increase is primarily due to the growth in subscription service fees from individual customers. Revenues from subscription service fees paid by individual customers were $9.62 million in the first quarter of 2008, representing 87% of net revenues for the quarter. Revenues from mobile value added services were $310,000, representing 3% of net revenues for the quarter. Revenues from subscription service fees paid by institutional customers were $231,000 in the first quarter of 2008, approximately 2% of net revenues for the quarter. Revenues from advertising-related business for the quarter contributed $585,000, representing 6% of net revenues for the quarter. Revenues from brokerage-related services, provided by Daily Growth, the Hong Kong securities brokerage firm which was acquired in November 2007, were $153,000 in the first quarter of 2008, representing 1% of net revenue for the quarter. Other revenues were $158,000, representing 1% of net revenues for the quarter.
Revenues breakdown is summarized in the following table:

Gross Profit:
Gross profit for the quarter was $9.34 million, compared to $3.16 million for the same period in 2007 and $7.56 million for the fourth quarter of 2007. Gross margin was 84% in the first quarter, compared to 79% in the same period of 2007 and 85% in the fourth quarter of 2007. The year-over-year gross margin improvement was primarily due to cost leverage on increased sales and the modest sequential gross margin decline was driven by product mix change during the quarter.
Cost of revenue consists of bandwidth costs, personnel-related expenses, server depreciation expenses, and content expenses for our jrj.com and stockstar.com websites. Website maintenance and development expenses for the first quarter of 2008 was $1.04 million in the quarter, compared to $525,000 from the first quarter of 2007 and $903,000 for the previous quarter. As a percentage of net revenue, website maintenance and development expenses for the first quarter of 2008 was 9% in the quarter, compared to 13% for the first quarter of 2007 and 10% for the previous quarter. Since advertising-related services, which represent 6% of net revenues of the first quarter of 2008, are not a sizable business of the Company, website maintenance and development expenses do not have direct correlation with net revenues recognized in the first quarter of 2008.
Operating Expenses:
Operating expenses for the first quarter of 2008 totalled $7.36 million compared to $2.79 million for the same period in 2007 and $5.93 million from the previous quarter. The increase from Q4 2007 is primarily due to the increased stock-based compensation expenses. Excluding stock-based compensation of $2.37 million, operating expenses was $5.0 million for the first quarter of 2008, compared to $2.41 million for the first quarter of 2007 and $5.05 million for the fourth quarter of 2007. As a percentage of net revenue for the quarter, operating expenses excluding stock-based compensation was 45%, compared to 60% for the first quarter of 2007 and 57% for the fourth quarter of 2007.
* General and administrative expenses for the quarter were $3.92 million,
compared to $1.20 million for the same period in 2007 and $2.63 million
from the previous quarter. The increase from the previous quarter is
primarily due to the increase in stock-based compensation expenses, most
of which was due to increased compensation expenses related to the
performance-based restricted stock awards granted in the third quarter
of 2007. Excluding stock-based compensation of $2.28 million, general
and administrative expenses was $1.64 million for the first quarter,
compared to $869,000 in the first quarter of 2007 and $1.83 million in
the previous quarter. As a percentage of net revenue in the quarter,
general and administrative expenses excluding stock-based compensation
for the first quarter was 15%, and decreased from 22% for the first
quarter of 2007 and 21% for the fourth quarter of 2007.
* Sales and marketing expenses for the first quarter were $2.45 million,
compared to $1.25 million for the same period in 2007 and $2.43 million
from the previous quarter. Excluding stock-based compensation of
$67,000, sales and marketing expenses was $2.38 million for the first
quarter, compared to $1.22 million in the first quarter of 2007 and
$2.38 million in the previous quarter. As a percentage of net revenue in
the quarter, sales and marketing expenses excluding stock-based
compensation for the first quarter was 22%, and decreased from 31% for
the first quarter of 2007 and 27% for the fourth quarter of 2007.
* Product development expenses for the first quarter were $995,000,
compared to $347,000 for the same period in 2007 and $865,000 from the
previous quarter, which were primarily due to the increases in employee
compensation as a result of increased headcounts and server depreciation
expenses. Excluding stock-based compensation of $23,000, product
development expenses were $972,000, compared to $321,000 in the first
quarter of 2007 and $832,000 in the previous quarter. As a percentage of
net revenue in the quarter, product development expenses excluding

in the first quarter of 2007 and relatively flat from previous quarter.

Outlook for Second Quarter 2008 and Full Year of 2008
The Company currently expects to generate net revenues in an amount ranging from $13.0 million to $13.50 million for the second quarter of 2008, representing a 127% to 136% increase from the corresponding period in 2007.
On a non-GAAP basis, the Company estimates adjusted earnings, which represents net income excluding share-based compensation expenses, will be between $5.5 million and $6.0 million for the second quarter of 2008, representing a 155% to 178% increase from the corresponding period in 2007. Accordingly, non-GAAP earnings per ADS for the second quarter of 2008 is expected to be in the range of $0.24 to $0.26 per ADS based on an estimated 23.0 million fully diluted ADSs.
We update our 2008 revenue guidance to a range from $56.0 million to $61.0 million, compared to the previous guidance of $54.0 million to $61.0 million. Accordingly, the Company also updates its projected adjusted earnings for 2008 to a range of $24.0 million to $29.0 million, or $1.09 to $1.26 per ADS, from the previous range of $24.0 million to $29.0 million, or $1.04 to $1.26 per ADS. The earnings per ADS projection is based on an estimated 23.0 million fully diluted ADSs.
The above forecast reflects the Company's current and preliminary view, which is subject to change. A number of important factors including, but not limited to, fluctuation in the Chinese stock market, could cause the actual results to differ materially from those contained in the above guidance.

Non-GAAP Measures
To supplement the unaudited condensed consolidated financial information presented in accordance with Accounting Principles Generally Accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"), the Company uses non-GAAP measures of income from operations, net income, net income per share, net income per ADS, and EBITDA, which are adjusted from results based on GAAP to exclude impairment in a cost method investment and the compensation cost of share-based awards granted to employees primarily due to the adoption of SFAS 123R, which became effective on January 1, 2006. The non-GAAP financial measures are provided to enhance the investors' overall understanding of the Company's current and past financial performance in on-going core operations as well as prospects for the future. These measures should be considered in addition to results prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP results. Management uses both GAAP and non-GAAP information in evaluating and operating business internally and therefore deems it important to provide all of this information to investors.
Reconciliations of the Company's non-GAAP financial measures to unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations are set fourth after the "Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations" included in this release.
