Second Quarter Revenue Increased by 126.3% and Net Income Increased by 126.2% Year-over-year

SHANGHAI, China, Sept. 28 /Xinhua-PRNewswire/ -- Focus Media Holding Limited (Nasdaq: FMCN), China’s largest digital media group, today announced its unaudited financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2007.

Highlights for Second Quarter 2007:

-- Total revenues grew 126.3% year-over-year and 97.5% quarter-over-

quarter to $113.3 million.

-- Net income for the second quarter was $37.7 million, up 126.2% year-

over-year and 131.5% quarter-over-quarter. Fully diluted net income

per ADS for the second quarter of 2007 was $0.32. Focus Media also

provides operating margin, net income and earnings per ADS on a non-

GAAP basis that exclude non-cash share-based compensation expense and

acquired intangible assets amortization expense to enable investors to

better assess the Company’s operating performance. The non-GAAP

measures are described below and reconciled to the corresponding GAAP

measure in the section below titled “Use of non-GAAP Financial

Measures”. Net income, excluding non-cash share-based compensation

expenses and amortization of acquired intangible assets resulting from

acquisitions (non-GAAP) for the second quarter was $45.3 million or

$0.38 per fully diluted ADS.

-- As our digital media offerings to our advertising clients continue to

expand, we will be reporting our advertising service revenues under

three separate lines going forward: Digital out-of-home which includes

our commercial location network (which includes our Premier Office

Building Channel A and other commercial location network channels, our

outdoor LED network and our movie theater network), our in-store

network and our in-elevator poster frame network; Mobile handset

advertising; and Internet advertising. In the second quarter of 2007,

digital out-of-home advertising revenue was $76.9 million.

-- Advertising service revenue from our commercial location network,

including revenue from our outdoor LED network (also referred to as

our iStreet Network) and movie theater advertising network, grew

67.8% year-over-year and 61.4% quarter-over quarter to $51.1 million.

-- Advertising service revenue from our in-store network grew 10.8%

year-over-year and 9.1% quarter-over-quarter to $7.2 million.

-- Advertising service revenue from our in-elevator poster frame

network grew 89.7% year-over-year and 46.4% quarter-over-quarter to

$18.5 million in the second quarter 2007.

-- Mobile handset advertising revenue grew 253.8% year-over-year and 81.1%

quarter-over-quarter, to $10.9 million in the second quarter 2007.

-- Internet advertising revenue, primarily from revenues following the

acquisition of Allyes in the first quarter 2007, was $25.2 million in

the second quarter of 2007.

“We saw strong demand growth in the second quarter of 2007. In addition, upon the successful integration of Allyes, we have further expanded our ability to offer highly-effective cross-media solutions catering to the needs of our advertising clients. We believe Internet advertising will become another key growth driver for Focus Media in the future,” said Jason Jiang, CEO of Focus Media. “Among our media networks, the in-store business is characterized by relatively low margin and intense competition. Going forward, we will focus on market share expansion by investing aggressively to secure additional store locations throughout China. Recently, we have signed up RT-Mart, one of the leading hypermarket chains with more than 60 stores in major cities in China and a partner of Auchan Group in France. We believe, by developing the largest in-store digital advertising network in China, we will be able to offer the most attractive media solutions for our fast-moving-consumer-goods (FMCG) advertising clients.”

Second Quarter Financial Results

For the second quarter of 2007, Focus Media reported total revenues of $113.3 million, an increase of 126.3% compared to $50.1 million for the second quarter of 2006, and an increase of 97.5% compared to $57.3 million for the first quarter of 2007.

Our total digital out-of-home advertising revenue was $76.9 million in the second quarter of 2007, an increase of 64.4% from $46.8 million in the second quarter of 2006 and a sequential increase of 50.8% from $51.0 million in the first quarter of 2007. In the second quarter of 2007, commercial location advertising revenue was $51.1 million, contributing 66.4% of total digital out-of-home advertising revenue. Advertising service revenue from our in-store network was $7.2 million, or 9.4% of total digital out-of-home advertising revenue. Advertising service revenue from our poster frame network placed primarily in the elevators of residential complexes was $18.5 million in the second quarter of 2007, or 24.1% of total digital out-of-home advertising revenue.

Due to continuing expansion of our media offerings and strong demand from our customers, we have started to offer customized media solutions tailored to the needs of our large advertising clients. We have also extended the cycle time of our commercial location network in certain cities to more than 12 minutes. As a result, the number of 30-second equivalent time slots sold (“Slot Sold”) and average revenue per 30-second equivalent time slot (“ASP”) for our networks are no longer as representative. Therefore, going forward, we will no longer provide such data in our earning reports.

As of June 30, 2007, the total installed base of displays in our commercial location network was 89,687 nationwide, including 85,010 displays through our directly owned networks, and 4,677 displays through our regional distributors. In the second quarter of 2007, we continued to expand the installed base of our hypermarkets to 1,205 stores from 1,196 hypermarkets as of March 31, 2007. The installed base of supermarkets and convenience stores was 734 and 2,056, respectively, as of June 30, 2007. The number of displays installed in our in-store network increased to 41,322 as of June 30, 2007 compared to 40,736 as of March 31, 2007. The total number of frames available for sale was 161,435 as of June 30, 2007, as compared to 124,542 as of March 31, 2007. As of August 30, 2007, we had installed 6,796 digital 2.0 frames, mainly in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen.

Mobile Advertising Business

Advertising service revenue from Focus Media Wireless in the second quarter of 2007 was $10.9 million, up 253.8% from $3.1 million in the second quarter of 2006 and 81.1% from $6.0 million in the first quarter of 2007.

Internet Advertising Business

Advertising service revenue from Allyes was $25.2 million in the second quarter of 2007. Digital marketing service, digital marketing technology and digital performance media contributed 90.0%, 3.4%, 6.6% respectively to the total Internet advertising revenue.

Gross profit for the second quarter of 2007 was $61.8 million, representing an increase of 117.2% compared to $28.5 million for the corresponding period a year ago and a 94.8% increase compared to $31.8 million in the first quarter 2007. In the second quarter 2007, gross margin for our digital out-of-home business was 63.1%. Within the digital out-of-home business, commercial location network gross margin was 65.0%, in-store network gross margin was 28.4%, and the poster frame network gross margin was 71.6%. The gross margin for our mobile advertising business was 58.0%. The gross margin for our Internet advertising business was 27.1% in the second quarter 2007. Blended gross margin for the company for the second quarter was 54.6%, as compared to 56.9% in the second quarter of 2006, primarily due to the addition of the lower-margin Internet advertising business to our revenue mix.

In the second quarter of 2007, operating expenses totaled $23.7 million, including $0.8 million in acquired intangible asset amortization resulting from acquisitions and non-cash share-based compensation expense of $4.6 million. Operating expenses as a percentage of total revenues in the second quarter 2007 was 20.9%, as compared to 30.2% in the previous quarter. Selling and marketing expenses in the second quarter totaled $13.2 million including $2.0 million in share compensation expense, or 11.6% of total revenues. General and administrative expense in the second quarter was $11.6 million including $2.6 million in share-based compensation expense, or 10.3% of total revenues. Our operating margin in the second quarter of 2007 was 33.7%, up significantly from 25.2% in the first quarter 2007. Excluding non-cash share-based compensation expense and acquired intangible asset amortization expense, operating margin (non-GAAP) was 40.4% in the second quarter 2007.

Net income for the second quarter of 2007 was $37.7 million, an increase of 126.2% compared to $16.7 million for the same period in 2006. Fully diluted net income per ADS for the second quarter of 2007 was $0.32. Net income excluding non-cash share-based compensation expense and acquired intangible assets amortization expense resulting from acquisitions (non-GAAP) in the second quarter of 2007 was $45.3 million, or $0.38 per fully diluted ADS.

Other Recent Developments

On March 16, 2006, Shanghai Xicheng Cultural Dissemination Co.,Ltd, also referred to as CGEN, brought a suit against us in the Shanghai No. 1 Intermediate People’s Court on the grounds of unfair competition. On July 25, 2007, we received the civil judgment of first instance by the Shanghai No.1 Intermediate People’s Court which dismissed the lawsuit.

In September 2007, the Audit Committee completed its investigation into allegations made by U.S. counsel to an investor described as holding a short position in Focus Media shares. Based upon its review of the evidence, the audit committee concluded that nothing has come to its attention -- apart from the initial allegations that gave rise to the investigation -- that would cause the audit committee to believe that Focus Media made undisclosed rebate payments to a third party advertising agency through another advertising agency, namely, Everease. We concluded that Everease is a related party based upon information developed during the investigation. Based upon its review of the evidence, the audit committee concurred with our conclusion that Everease should be deemed a related party. Subsequently, the Company filed its delayed 2006 20-F annual report on September 25, 2007. Our 2006 annual report on form 20-F is available at the investor relations portion of our website ( http://ir.focusmedia.cn ).

BUSINESS OUTLOOK

The Company estimates its total revenues for the third quarter of 2007 will range from $132 million to $135 million. Third quarter 2007 net income excluding share-based compensation expense and intangible assets amortization expense resulting from acquisitions (non-GAAP) is expected to be between $52 million and $54 million or $0.41 to $0.43 per fully diluted ADS based on 126 million total ADS equivalent average shares outstanding. Due to higher-than-expected growth in our Internet advertising business, the company also raises its total revenues estimates for full year 2007 to a range of $440 million to $450 million, as compared to the previously announced range of $390 million to $400 million.

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 operating margin, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per fully diluted ADS, all excluding non-cash share-based compensation and acquired intangible asset amortization expense resulting from acquisitions. 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 for the three-month periods ended March 31 2007, and the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2006 and 2007, 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.
