2006 Second Quarter Results Summary
Revenues
Revenue for second quarter ended June 30, 2006 was KRW 6.4 billion,
representing a 23% increase from first quarter of 2006. This increase was
primarily due to the stabilization of our game MU in Korea and the increase
of overseas royalty revenue related to the commercialization of MU in
Vietnam and US. Overseas revenue increased more than the domestic revenue.
Domestic revenue increased 6% to 4.6 billion KRW. And this resulted from
the stabilization of MU since 4th quarter of 2005. Overseas revenue
increased 115% to 1.8 billion KRW, due to the revenue from the
commercialization of MU in Vietnam and the US. Other revenue which is
related with mobile revenue decreased 36% from 1st quarter. Currently,
domestic and overseas revenue consist of 72% and 28% respectively of the
total revenue. Among the domestic revenue, individual subscription revenue
increased 8% to 3.4 billion KRW, and internet cafe revenue was 1.1billion
KRW, which was similar to last quarter. Overseas revenue increased 115%
QoQ. Regionally, Philippines increased by a large percentage, recording 120
million KRW. China and Japan showed a 4% decrease and recorded 59 million
KRW and 487 million KRW respectively. Revenue from Vietnam and the US was
generated from the commercial launch of MU during April. We recognized 345
million and 511 million KRW respectively. Overseas revenue has shown a sign
of stabilization and the commercial launch of MU in Vietnam and US are
expected to contribute to the stabilization.
Operating Expenses
Total operating expenses increased 50% to KRW 17.3 billion due to the E3
game show expense and SUN open beta marketing expense. Labor costs was KRW
6.7 billion which increased 3.7% from previous quarter. Labor costs account
for 38% of total operating costs. Depreciation increased 30% to KRW 755
million related to the addition of new servers for the new service of games.
Commission paid increased 77% from previous quarter due to the increase of
agency business fee and outsourcing fee, and was KRW 1.9 billion. Marketing
expenses increased 584% to 5.2 billion KRW. The increase was due to the E3
Game Expo and marketing related to our new game SUN. Sales Commission
decreased 3% due to the decrease of internet cafe revenue to 187 million
KRW. Other costs were KRW 2.5 billion and was similar to previous quarter.
We recognized a negative KRW 453 million non-operating income during 2nd
quarter. Interest income increased 2%.As of end of 2nd quarter, cash and
cash equivalents, including marketable securities was KRW 101.9 billion. KRW
9.9 billion decreased from previous quarter. (end of Q1: KRW 111.8 billion)
We experienced a KRW 1.6 billion loss in equity method. We recognized an
equity gain in Webzen China due to the profit related to a service contract
for Kingdom of Warriors. Webzen America's equity loss increased due to the
adjustment (write-off) of deferred income tax.
