Focus Media Holding Limited
2010-05-20 23:21 1116

SHANGHAI, May 21 /PRNewswire-Asia/ -- Focus Media Holding Limited (Nasdaq: FMCN), China's largest digital media group, today announced its unaudited financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2010.

Highlights for First Quarter 2010:

-- Total net revenue for the first quarter of 2010 was $124.9 million, of

which:

-- aggregate net revenue from the LCD display network, in-store

network and poster frame network was $82.6 million, which exceeded

by approximately 5% the mid-point of the Company's guidance range

of $78-80 million and;

-- aggregate net revenue from the movie theater and traditional outdoor

billboard network and Internet advertising services was $42.3

million, which exceeded by approximately 11% the mid-point of the

guidance range of $37-39 million.

-- GAAP net loss attributable to Focus Media was $1.0 million, compared to

net loss attributable to Focus Media of $5.7 million for the first

quarter of 2009, and net loss attributable to Focus Media of $53.0

million for the fourth quarter of 2009.

-- Non-GAAP net income attributable to Focus Media for the first quarter

of 2010 was $23.2 million, also exceeding the Company's guidance range

of $20-$23 million, 8% above the median of guidance, compared to

non-GAAP net income attributable to Focus Media of $18.6 million for

the first quarter of 2009 and non-GAAP net income attributable to Focus

Media of $34.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2009. Please see

below section on "Use of non-GAAP financial measures" for more

information about the non-GAAP measures referred to within this

announcement.

-- GAAP net loss per ADS was a loss of $0.01, compared to a loss of $0.04

per ADS in the first quarter of 2009 and $0.39 per ADS for the fourth

quarter of 2009.

-- Non-GAAP net income per fully diluted ADS was $0.16, compared to $0.14

per fully diluted ADS for the first quarter of 2009, and $0.25 per

fully diluted ADS for the fourth quarter of 2009. The sequential

decline in non-GAAP net income attributable to Focus Media was

primarily caused by seasonal decline in our net revenue from LCD

display network, poster frame network and in-store network.

Highlights for Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Results of First Quarter 2010:

-- Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investment was $598.6 million as

of March 31, 2010, on par with $597.4 million as of December 31, 2009.

-- Net accounts receivable for the LCD display network, in-store network

and poster frame network was $98.4 million as of March 31, 2010, a

slight increase of 2% from $96.1 million as of December 31, 2009. Days

sales outstanding on a rolling basis was 96 days in the first quarter

of 2010 versus 88 days for the fourth quarter of 2009, within the

expected norm of seasonal fluctuations.

-- Net accounts receivable for the movie theater and traditional outdoor

billboard network and Internet advertising services was $67.4 million

as of March 31, 2010, a decrease of 12% from $76.6 million as of

December 31, 2009.

-- Net cashflow from operations in the first quarter of 2010 was $5.9

million, representing a decrease of 92% from $72.3 million for the

fourth quarter of 2009. The decline was primarily attributable to the

following four reasons: 1) increases in advance rental payments we made

for the in-store business; 2) payments for income tax accrued in the

fourth quarter of 2009; 3) settlement of a business arbitration case,

which we have accrued for and disclosed since 2008 and 4) seasonal

decline in net revenue.

-- Capital expenditures were $1.1 million for the first quarter of 2010.

-- Earn-out payments related to historical acquisitions paid in the first

quarter of 2010 were $15.2 million, all attributable to the poster

frame network.

Jason Jiang, the Chairman and the Chief Executive Officer of the Company said, "As we embark upon a new year, we are encouraged by the continued recovery of our operations as we stabilize our core businesses to take advantage of the recovery of the advertising market in China. We believe our core business continues to offer attractive opportunities for us to potentially double our revenue base over the medium term through steady execution of our business model. While our near term focus remain on monetizing our existing business opportunities in first and second tier cities, we have also started laying the foundation for our medium term growth, as we expand our capacities in third tier cities and beyond."

Kit Low, the Chief Financial Officer of the Company added, "In the first quarter of 2010, the Company achieved aggregate net revenue year on year growth in our LCD display, in-store and poster frame businesses of 29%. The Company continued to focus on cash flow generation during the quarter through improving collection of account receivables. We have seen the balance of account receivables decline sequentially from $172.8 million as of December 31, 2009 to $165.8 million as of March 31, 2010 while the bad debt expenses declined substantially as compared to the fourth quarter of 2009. We do however face some negative working capital cash outflows mainly related to prepayment of rental deposits in our in-store network in exchange for better rental terms, payment of accrued income tax in the fourth quarter of 2009, and settlement of liabilities related to an arbitration case on a disposed business which we accrued and disclosed since 2008. We continue to be confident that our operating cashflow will continue to improve as we progress through the year. Besides our focus on cash flow generation, we will also strive to improve our return on equity as we leverage our improving returns as well as our share repurchases."

First Quarter 2010 financial results

Advertising net revenue from the LCD display network was $50.2 million for the first quarter of 2010, representing an increase of 46% from $34.3 million for the first quarter of 2009, and a decrease of 22% from $64.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2009 due to seasonality.

Advertising net revenue from the poster frame network was $24.8 million for the first quarter of 2010, representing an increase of 5% from $23.5 million for the first quarter of 2009 and a decrease of 7% from $26.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2009 due to seasonality.

Advertising net revenue from the in-store network was $7.7 million for the first quarter of 2010, increasing by 21% from $6.3 million for the first quarter of 2009, and slightly increasing from $7.4 million from the fourth quarter of 2009.

As of March 31, 2010, the total installed base of LCD displays in our LCD display network was 132,485 nationwide, including 126,289 displays through our directly owned networks, and 6,196 displays through our regional distributors, as compared to 131,006 as of December 31, 2009.

In addition, as of March 31, 2010, we had 35,599 digital frames installed in our poster frame network, as compared to 35,972 as of December 31, 2009. The total number of displays installed in our in-store network was 40,848 as of March 31, 2010, as compared to 44,517 as of December 31, 2009. The decline was due to the termination of rental contracts with two chain stores.

Internet advertising service net revenue was $28.1 million in the first quarter of 2010, increasing by 32% from $21.3 million for the first quarter of 2009, and a decrease of 16% as compared to $33.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2009 due to seasonality.

Advertising net revenue from the movie theater and traditional outdoor billboard network was $14.1 million for the first quarter of 2010, representing a decrease of 26% from $19.2 million from the first quarter of 2009 due to disposal of a subsidiary in traditional outdoor billboard network in the third quarter of 2009 and an increase of 12% from $12.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2009.

Non-GAAP gross profit from the LCD display network for the first quarter of 2010 was $36.3 million, representing an increase of 58% from $22.9 million for the first quarter of 2009, and a decrease of 28% from $50.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2009 due to seasonal revenue decline on a relatively fixed direct operating costs base.

Non-GAAP gross profit from the poster frame network for the first quarter of 2010 was $8.0 million, representing a decrease of 29% from $11.2 million for the first quarter of 2009 due to significant restructuring in 2009, and a decrease of 26% from $10.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2009 due to seasonal revenue decline on a relatively fixed direct operating costs base.

Non-GAAP gross profit from the in-store network for the first quarter of 2010 was $2.4 million, representing an increase of 17% from $2.1 million for the first quarter of 2009 as the Company managed to lower rental costs in the business, and a decrease of 51% from $5.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2009 primarily due to the Company's settling of a rental dispute in the fourth quarter of 2009.

Non-GAAP gross profit from our internet advertising services for the first quarter of 2010 was $5.7 million, representing an increase of 21% from $4.7 million for the first quarter of 2009, and a slight 5% decline from $6.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2009 due to seasonality.

Non-GAAP gross profit from the movie theater and traditional outdoor billboard network for the first quarter of 2010 was $4.7 million, representing a 22% decline from $6.0 million for the first quarter of 2009, mainly due to the restructuring in the traditional outdoor billboard network as one subsidiary was disposed in late third quarter of 2009, and a 87% increase from $2.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2009.

Non-GAAP operating expense for the first quarter of 2010 was $28.7 million, a slight increase of 2% from $28.3 million for the first quarter of 2009 and decreased by 15% from $33.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2009.

Non-GAAP net income for the first quarter of 2010 is $23.2 million. Net cash provided by operating activities for the first quarter of 2010 was $5.9 million. The Company incurred an increase of changes in assets and liabilities by $27.1 million during the quarter including payment of previously accrued income tax of $14.6 million, rental deposits of $13.7 million mainly related to prepaid rental for in-store network and liabilities related to settlement of a business arbitration case, which we have accrued and disclosed since 2008 in the Company's disposed wireless business in the amount of $5.5 million.

Net cash received from investing activities for the first quarter was $15.2 million. In the first quarter of 2010, the Company incurred capital expenditure of $1.1 million and earn-out payments of $15.2 million. In the meantime, the Company converted short-term investment into cash and cash equivalent in the amount of $29.3 million and received proceeds of $2.2 million from prior year disposal of a subsidiary during the quarter.

Net cash provided by financing activities for the first quarter was $9.0 million. In the first quarter of 2010, the Company received cash of $9.0 million as part of the proceeds related to the management buyout of a 38% stake in Allyes, the Internet division of the Company.

Business Outlook for Second Quarter 2010

The Company provides the following guidance with respect to the second quarter ending June 30, 2010: Net revenues for LCD display network, in-store network and poster frame network are expected to be in the range of $99-101.5 million, the mid-point of which would represent quarter-on-quarter growth of 19% and year-on-year growth of 12% (off an unusually strong base in the second quarter of 2009). Net revenues for the Internet advertising services and the movie theater and traditional outdoor billboard network are expected to be in the range of $43-45 million. The Company's non-GAAP net income is expected to be in the range of $35.5-37.5 million. The Company estimates the fully diluted ADS count for the quarter at 149 million.

Currently, one of the Company's subsidiaries is in the process of applying for High/New Technology Enterprise ("HNTE") status in China. This tax status, along with the applicable tax holidays, will allow the subsidiary to benefit from a 0% tax rate for year 2010. Under US GAAP, the Company is not allowed to utilize an anticipated tax rate until the approved certification is granted. Up until such date, the Company is required to accrue for income tax at the enacted statutory rate of 25%. Upon receiving the approval for the HNTE status, we will adjust the tax accrual to reflect the 0% tax rate applicable to that particular subsidiary effective from January 1, 2010 and the estimated effective tax rate for fiscal year 2010 for the Company will be reduced. Had the Company been able to utilize a 0% tax rate during the first quarter of 2010, the Company's income tax expense would have been reduced by approximately $1.6-$1.9 million.

The Company incurred cumulative earn-out payments of $15.2 million in the first quarter of 2010. Based on the existing business outlook, the Company expects earn-out payments remaining in 2010 to be no more than $23 million versus our previous guidance of cumulatively no more than $40 million for 2010.

Announced Share Repurchase Program

On February 2, 2010, Focus Media announced that its board of directors has approved a share repurchase program of up to $200 million. As of May 20, 2010, the Company has cumulatively spent $23.7 million in share repurchases.

Foreign Currency Translation

Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate as of March 31, 2010, which was $1 to RMB 6.8263. Equity accounts are translated at historical exchange rates and revenues, expenses, gains and losses are translated using the average rate for the first quarter of 2010, which was $1 to RMB 6.8360. Translation adjustments are reported as cumulative translation adjustments and are shown as a separate component of other comprehensive income in the statement of shareholders' equity and comprehensive income (loss).

USE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

In addition to Focus Media's consolidated financial results under GAAP, the Company also provides non-GAAP financial measures, including non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP operating profit (loss), non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP fully-diluted EPS, all excluding share-based compensation expenses, amortization of acquired intangible assets, loss from disposal of previously acquired subsidiaries and equity affiliates, impairment charges of long-lived assets and goodwill and termination charges related to ceasing expansion of digital poster frame networks and boat-based advertising platform, write-off of receivables from ex-shareholders of disposed business and charges from expensing IPO expenditures as a result of termination of IPO process of Allyes. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with another method for assessing Focus Media's operating results in a manner that is focused on the performance of its ongoing operations. Readers are cautioned not to view non-GAAP results on a stand-alone basis or as a substitute for results under GAAP, or as being comparable to results reported or forecasted by other companies, and should refer to the reconciliation of GAAP results with non-GAAP results in the attached financial information. The Company believes that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing the performance of Focus Media and when planning and forecasting future periods. The Company computes its non-GAAP financial measures using the same consistent method from quarter to quarter. The accompanying tables have more details on the GAAP financial measures that are most directly comparable to non-GAAP financial measures and the related reconciliation between these financial measures.
