Mr. Michael Chi, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Perfect World, commented, "We are pleased to announce our solid performance in the fourth quarter of 2011. Our revenues rose by 9.5% quarter-over-quarter, which beat the high end of our expectations, due to the strong performance of our existing games and the continued strength of our overseas business."

"Successfully maintaining user interest in our existing games is one of the key drivers of our growth. In the fourth quarter, we continued to release a steady stream of expansion packs and content updates to keep our players engaged and to meet their changing and increasingly demanding needs. We also continued to expand our diversified portfolio of games. Our deep and well-rounded pipeline includes a number of attractive titles of different genres and types, ranging from MMORPGs to web games and social networking games. Recently, we unveiled another forthcoming title, 'Fantasy Condor Heroes.' This is a cartoon-style martial arts MMORPG adapted from the highly acclaimed Chinese novel, 'Return of the Condor Heroes,' by Louis Cha. In addition to our highly anticipated 'Swordsman Online' and 'Saint Seiya Online,' we believe 'Fantasy Condor Heroes' will also capture the attention of many players."

"Another key driver of our continuous growth is our effective globalization strategy. We maintain a number of specialized production studios in China and worldwide that support our well-established R&D capabilities and continue to buttress our industry leading position. Our subsidiaries based in the U.S. are developing several world-class titles, including 'Neverwinter' by Cryptic Studios, Inc. ('Cryptic Studios'). We are also actively expanding our deep global operating network. During the fourth quarter, we partnered with Nexon and jointly established a new company in Korea to manage and operate online games in Korea. We expect this to further enhance our global operational capabilities and allow us to provide enhanced services to our users in the Korean market. Looking ahead, we will continue to leverage our overseas resources and the appeal of our brand world-wide to further strengthen our position in the global gaming market."

"In order to further enhance our execution capabilities, I am pleased to announce that the Company has appointed Mr. Robert Hong Xiao, our senior vice president, as Chief Operating Officer. Mr. Xiao joined Perfect World as a senior vice president in charge of our human resources and administration in 2008. We are grateful for his significant contributions to our global business operations and strategic development over the past few years. In his new role, he will oversee our business operations and business support functions to help execute our business strategies more efficiently and effectively. Given the continued, successful execution of our strategy and unwavering focus on our commitments, we are confident in our ability to continue generating value for our shareholders over the long-term."

Mr. Kelvin Lau, Chief Financial Officer, added, "Our fourth quarter revenues surpassed the high-end of our expectations and our bottom line also achieved strong sequential growth, mainly due to the continued strength of our existing games, including our popular flagship title 'Zhu Xian.'"

"In addition to the strong performance of our existing games in the domestic market, we continued to excel in our overseas business. We generate over one-fourth of our total revenues from operating and licensing our games abroad and maintain a geographical coverage of over 100 countries and regions worldwide, making us the number one Chinese online gaming company in the overseas market. Recently, we launched 'Empire of the Immortals' in Japan through our wholly-owned Japanese subsidiary, and also in North America and Europe under the name of 'War of the Immortals' through our wholly-owned U.S. and European subsidiaries. We also published 'Blacklight Retribution,' a free-to-play first-person shooter game developed by the well-known U.S.-based Zombie Studios, Inc., in North America. Furthermore, we achieved continued growth from our overseas licensing activities during the fourth quarter as we successfully launched a number of our games in various markets abroad through our overseas partners."

"Looking back at the full year of 2011, both our top line and bottom line grew steadily from 2010 despite some natural quarterly fluctuations. For the full year of 2011, our revenues grew by a solid 25.2%. This is a clear indication of the underlying health of our business in spite of an increasingly competitive environment. As we continuously generate strong free cash flow from our healthy operations, the Company would like to return value to our shareholders in appreciation of their long-standing trust and support. On March 14, 2012, the board of directors declared special cash dividends in the aggregate amount of approximately USD95 million to our shareholders of record as of the close of business on April 6, 2012 (Eastern Time), at USD0.40 per Class A or Class B ordinary share, or USD2.00 per ADS, each representing five Class B ordinary shares of the Company. The dividends are expected to be distributed in cash in or around April 2012. We intend to distribute dividends annually in the future. However, the distribution of any future dividends will be at the full discretion of the Board and will be dependent upon our financial position, results of operations, available cash, capital requirements and other factors. Bringing value to our shareholders is an important part of our commitment, and we will continue to do what is necessary for the long-term health of our business and the best interest of our shareholders."

Fourth Quarter 2011 Financial Results

Total revenues were RMB776.4 million (USD123.4 million) in 4Q11, as compared to RMB708.9 million in 3Q11 and RMB587.2 million in 4Q10.

Online game operation revenues, which include both domestic and overseas online game operations, were RMB706.9 million (USD112.3 million) in 4Q11, as compared to RMB643.2 million in 3Q11 and RMB526.2 million in 4Q10. The sequential growth in online game operation revenues from 3Q11 was primarily attributable to the continued strength of some of the Company's existing games including the Company's signature title "Zhu Xian," as well as the continued strength of the Company's overseas operations.

The aggregate average concurrent users (ACU) for games under operation in mainland China was approximately 873,000 in 4Q11, as compared to 828,000 in 3Q11 and 999,000 in 4Q10.

Licensing revenues were RMB65.6 million (USD10.4 million) in 4Q11, as compared to RMB55.8 million in 3Q11 and RMB57.8 million in 4Q10. The increase from 3Q11 was primarily attributable to an increase in initial license fees arising from a number of new commercial launches overseas.

Other revenues were RMB3.9 million (USD0.6 million) in 4Q11, as compared to RMB9.9 million in 3Q11 and RMB3.2 million in 4Q10.

Cost of Revenues

The cost of revenues was RMB137.1 million (USD21.8 million) in 4Q11, as compared to RMB121.2 million in 3Q11 and RMB102.4 million in 4Q10. The increase from 3Q11 was mainly due to an increase in staff cost including a special year-end bonus, sales-related taxes and server depreciation expenses in 4Q11.

Gross Profit and Gross Margin

Gross profit was RMB639.3 million (USD101.6 million) in 4Q11, as compared to RMB587.7 million in 3Q11 and RMB484.9 million in 4Q10. Gross margin was 82.3% in 4Q11, as compared to 82.9% in 3Q11 and 82.6% in 4Q10.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses were RMB419.1 million (USD66.6 million) in 4Q11, as compared to RMB393.9 million in 3Q11 and RMB345.7 million in 4Q10. The increase in operating expenses from 3Q11 was mainly attributed to higher R&D expenses and general administrative expenses in 4Q11.

R&D expenses were RMB186.5 million (USD29.6 million) in 4Q11, as compared to RMB170.6 million in 3Q11 and RMB136.8 million in 4Q10. The increase from 3Q11 was primarily due to an increase in staff cost.

Sales and marketing expenses were RMB142.0 million (USD22.6 million) in 4Q11, as compared to RMB146.7 million in 3Q11 and RMB153.5 million in 4Q10. As the Company did not launch any new game in 4Q11, sales and marketing expenses remained relatively flat.

General and administrative expenses were RMB90.6 million (USD14.4 million) in 4Q11, as compared to RMB76.5 million in 3Q11 and RMB55.4 million in 4Q10. The increase from 3Q11 was mainly due to an increase in staff cost, including a special year-end bonus.

Operating Profit

Operating profit was RMB220.2 million (USD35.0 million) in 4Q11, as compared to RMB193.9 million in 3Q11 and RMB139.2 million in 4Q10. Non-GAAP operating profit was RMB244.0 million (USD38.8 million) in 4Q11, as compared to RMB221.3 million in 3Q11 and RMB163.6 million in 4Q10.

Total Other Income

Total other income was RMB49.0 million (USD7.8 million) in 4Q11, as compared to RMB28.5 million in 3Q11 and RMB14.1 million in 4Q10. The increase from 3Q11 was largely due to an increase in government grant subsidy income.

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense was RMB10.7 million (USD1.7 million) in 4Q11, as compared to RMB78.8 million in 3Q11 and RMB13.1 million in 4Q10. The decrease from 3Q11 was mainly due to lower withholding tax in 4Q11. An additional withholding tax was accrued in 3Q11 for prior-period undistributed earnings as a result of the change in the Company's dividend policy to reflect the Company's intention to distribute part of the earnings of the Company's wholly-owned PRC subsidiaries to its shareholders from time to time. In 4Q11, such tax expense was accrued for undistributed earnings of current period.

Net Income Attributable to the Company's Shareholders

Net income attributable to the Company's shareholders was RMB260.0 million (USD41.3 million) in 4Q11, as compared to RMB143.6 million in 3Q11 and RMB125.2 million in 4Q10. Non-GAAP net income attributable to the Company's shareholders was RMB283.9 million (USD45.1 million) in 4Q11, as compared to RMB171.1 million in 3Q11 and RMB149.7 million in 4Q10.

Basic and diluted earnings per ADS were RMB5.65 (USD0.90) and RMB5.45 (USD0.87), respectively, in 4Q11, as compared to RMB2.96 and RMB2.83, respectively, in 3Q11, and RMB2.50 and RMB2.36, respectively, in 4Q10. Non-GAAP basic and diluted earnings per ADS were RMB6.17 (USD0.98) and RMB5.94 (USD0.94), respectively, in 4Q11, as compared to RMB3.53 and RMB3.37, respectively, in 3Q11, and RMB2.98 and RMB2.82, respectively, in 4Q10.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

As of December 31, 2011, the Company had RMB2.2 billion (USD341.6 million) of cash and cash equivalents, as compared to RMB1.6 billion as of September 30, 2011. The increase was primarily due to net cash inflow generated from the Company's online game operations, as well as cash inflow from some matured short-term structured deposits.

Online game operation revenues, which include both domestic and overseas online game operations, were RMB2,708.5 million (USD430.3 million) in fiscal year 2011, as compared to RMB2,156.3 million in fiscal year 2010. The year-over-year increase was primarily attributable to the contribution from the Company's recently launched new games such as "Forsaken World," the continued popularity of some of the Company's core existing games including "Zhu Xian" and "Perfect World II" in the domestic market, as well as the successful expansion of the Company's overseas operations in North America, Europe and Japan.

Other revenues were RMB28.1 million (USD4.5 million) in fiscal year 2011, as compared to RMB12.4 million in fiscal year 2010. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to an increase in revenues generated from the Company's non-online games and lighter games during fiscal year 2011.

Cost of Revenues

Cost of revenues was RMB479.9 million (USD76.3 million) in fiscal year 2011, as compared to RMB379.4 million in fiscal year 2010. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to increases in staff cost, sales-related taxes and server depreciation expenses associated with the Company's expansion of its domestic game operations and its overseas acquisitions. This increase was generally in line with the Company's revenue growth.

Gross Profit and Gross Margin

Gross profit was RMB2,503.5 million (USD397.8 million) in fiscal year 2011, as compared to RMB2,004.2 million in fiscal year 2010. Gross margin was 83.9% in fiscal year 2011, as compared to 84.1% in fiscal year 2010.

Recent Development

Appointed the Company's Senior Vice President Mr. Robert Hong Xiao as Chief Operating Officer

The Company has appointed Mr. Robert Hong Xiao, the Company's senior vice president, as Chief Operating Officer. Mr. Xiao joined Perfect World as a senior vice president in charge of its human resources and administration in 2008. With his strong execution capabilities and thorough understanding of Perfect World's business and corporate culture,combined with his rich past experiences at various world-class multinational corporations, Mr. Xiao will oversee the Company's business operations and business support functions in his new role to further enhance the Company's execution capabilities.

Declaration of Cash Dividends

As the Company continues to generate strong free cash flow from its healthy operations, the Company would like to return value to its shareholders in appreciation of their long-standing trust and support. On March 14, 2012, the Company's board of directors declared special cash dividends in the aggregate amount of approximately USD95 million to the Company's shareholders of record as of the close of business on April 6, 2012 (Eastern Time), at USD0.40 per Class A or Class B ordinary share, or USD2.00 per ADS, each representing five Class B ordinary shares of the Company. The dividends are expected to be distributed in cash in or around April 2012.

The Company intends to distribute dividends annually in the future. However, the distribution of any future dividends will be at the full discretion of the Board and will be dependent upon the Company's financial position, results of operations, available cash, capital requirements and other factors.

Business Outlook

Based on the Company's current operations, total revenues for the first quarter of 2012 are expected to be between RMB714 million and RMB753 million, representing a mild decline on a sequential basis. Quarterly fluctuation is a natural part of the Company's normal product cycle. Some of the in-game promotional activities toward the end of the first quarter are expected to take shape some time after the end of quarter.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement the financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principals in the United States, or GAAP, this press release presents non-GAAP operating profit, non-GAAP net income attributable to the Company's shareholders and non-GAAP earnings per ADS by excluding share-based compensation charge from operating profit, net income attributable to the Company's shareholders and earnings per ADS, respectively. The Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures are important to help investors understand the Company's operating and financial performance, compare business trends among different reporting periods on a consistent basis and assess the Company's core operating results, as they exclude certain expenses that are not expected to result in cash payments. The use of the above non-GAAP financial measures has certain limitations. Share-based compensation charge has been and will continue to be incurred and is not reflected in the presentation of the non-GAAP financial measures. It should be considered in the overall evaluation of our results. None of the non-GAAP measures is a measure of net income attributable to the Company's shareholders, operating profit, operating performance or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP. We compensate for these limitations by providing the relevant disclosure of our share-based compensation charge in our reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, which should be considered when evaluating our performance. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliation of each of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure are set forth at the end of this release.
