Mr. Zhengdong Zhu, Chairman and CEO of CDEL, said, "The second half of fiscal year 2019 commenced with a strong third quarter performance, with third quarter revenue and net income growth of 30.2% and 84.1% year-over-year, respectively. Third quarter revenue growth was driven primarily by our industry-leading accounting vertical, a significant increase in revenue from the sale of learning simulation software, and revenue from the legal vertical generated by Beijing Ruida. Total enrollment growth was 29.2% year-over-year in the third quarter, primarily due to significant enrollment growth in accounting and engineering & construction (E&C) continuing education courses. Cash receipts from online course registration grew 30.7% year-over-year in the third quarter, or 39.8% year-over-year on a constant currency basis, due to the continued popularity of our longer duration premium and elite classes."

Mr. Zhu concluded, "Our third quarter results show that our multi-pronged growth strategy is bearing fruit. All three core verticals of accounting, healthcare, and E&C, posted strong year-over-year cash receipt growth in the third quarter, demonstrating the broad appeal of our course offerings across industry verticals. Underpinning the growth of our industry verticals is the comprehensive life-long learning ecosystem we have built and continue to enhance. Our accounting vertical, for example, now encompasses a full complement of services, including professional certification exam preparation and continuing education services; practical accounting training and employment guidance services; accounting and related advisory services to corporate clients; and books and reference materials. We are focused on developing similar ecosystems across our other industry verticals, such as healthcare, E&C, and legal, in an effort to create additional avenues of growth and expand our overall growth opportunities."

Mr. Mark Marostica, Co-Chief Financial Officer of CDEL, added, "We returned to profitability in the third quarter as anticipated, and recorded non-GAAP operating margin of 16.8%, a significant year-over-year improvement due to strong third quarter revenue growth, coupled with the successful implementation of certain expense control measures and leverage of our cost structure."

Mr. Marostica, continued, "With our fourth fiscal quarter well underway, we remain steadfast in continuing to balance growth with a keen focus on profitability and prudent cost control."

Third Quarter Fiscal 2019 Financial Results

Net Revenue. Total net revenue increased by 30.2% to $61.7 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2019 from $47.4 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2018. Net revenue from online education services, books and reference materials, and other sources contributed 70.5%, 15.9% and 13.6%, respectively, of total net revenues for the third quarter of fiscal 2019.

Online education services. Net revenue from online education services increased by 25.6% to $43.5 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2019 from $34.7 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2018, mainly due to revenue growth from the accounting and healthcare verticals. Revenue from the legal vertical generated by Beijing Ruida also contributed to the growth.

Books and reference materials. Net revenue from books and reference materials increased by 84.7% to $9.8 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2019 from $5.3 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2018, mainly due to book sale revenue from the Legal Professional Qualification Examination contributed by Beijing Ruida.

Others. Net revenue from other sources increased by 12.8% to $8.4 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2019 from $7.4 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2018, primarily due to offline training revenue from the Legal Professional Qualification Examination contributed by Beijing Ruida. A significant increase in revenue from the sale of learning simulation software also contributed to the growth. This increase was partially offset by the decrease in revenue from the "Tax School Program" which the Company disposed in the first quarter of fiscal 2019.

Cost of Sales. Cost of sales increased by 24.4% to $30.6 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2019 from $24.6 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2018. Non-GAAP[1] cost of sales increased by 24.6% to $30.6 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2019 from $24.5 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2018. The increase was mainly due to expenses associated with Beijing Ruida, including amortization expenses of intangibles arising from its acquisition of $1.7 million, cost of books and reference materials, and lecture fees. This increase was partially offset by the decrease in salaries and related expenses, and rental and related expenses.

Gross Profit and Gross Margin. Gross profit was $31.2 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2019, up 36.5% from $22.8 million in the prior year period. Non-GAAP[1] gross profit was $31.2 million, increasing by 36.3% from $22.9 million in the prior year period. Gross margin was 50.5% in the third quarter of fiscal 2019, compared with 48.2% in the third quarter of fiscal 2018. Non-GAAP[1] gross margin was 50.5% in the third quarter of fiscal 2019, compared with 48.2% in the third quarter of fiscal 2018.

Operating Expenses. Total operating expenses increased by 24.5% to $22.0 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2019, from $17.7 million in the prior year period. Non-GAAP[1] total operating expenses increased by 25.8% to $21.5 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2019, from $17.1 million in the prior year period.

Selling expenses. Selling expenses increased by 31.4% to $17.0 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2019 from $13.0 million in the prior year period. Non-GAAP[1] selling expenses increased by 31.6% to $17.0 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2019 from $12.9 million in the prior year period. The increase was primarily driven by higher advertising and promotional expenses, expenses associated with Beijing Ruida, the increase in rental and related expenses and other miscellaneous selling expenses. This increase was partially offset by the decrease in commission to agents.

General and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses increased by 5.3% to $4.9 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2019 from $4.7 million in the prior year period. Non-GAAP[1] general and administrative expenses increased by 7.4% to $4.4 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2019 from $4.1 million in the prior year period. The increase was mainly due to the expenses associated with Beijing Ruida.

Income Tax Expense. Income tax expense increased by 82.6% to $2.5 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2019 from $1.3 million in the prior year period, primarily due to an increase in taxable income.

Net Income. As a result of the foregoing, net income was $9.4 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2019, compared with $5.1 million in the prior year period. Non-GAAP[1] net income was $10.0 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2019, compared with $5.8 million in the prior year period.

Operating Cash Flow. Net operating cash inflow increased by 41.7% to $17.6 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2019 from $12.4 million in the prior year period. The operating cash inflow was mainly attributable to net income before non-cash items generated in the third quarter of fiscal 2019. The increase in accrued expenses and other liabilities, income tax payable, and deferred revenue generated from the Company's professional education services segment also contributed to the operating cash inflow. The operating cash inflow was partially offset by the increase in accounts receivable, inventories, prepayments and other current assets, and other non-current assets.

Cash and Cash Equivalents, Restricted Cash and Short-term Investments. Cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and short-term investments as of June 30, 2019 decreased by 4.0% to $124.9 million from $130.1 million as of March 31, 2019, mainly due to (i) the payment of contingent consideration for the acquisition of 11% equity interest, and purchase consideration for further acquisition of 9% equity interest in Beijing Ruida for a total of $6.6 million, (ii) the repayment of loans of $13.1 million and (iii) the capital expenditure of $1.7 million. The decrease was partially offset by the operating cash inflow generated in the third quarter of fiscal 2019 and the proceeds from disposal of an investment, Beijing Yousian Technology Co., Ltd, of $3.6 million.

Statement Regarding Unaudited Financial Information

The unaudited financial information set forth in this press release is preliminary and subject to adjustments. Adjustments to the financial statements may be identified when audit work is performed for the year-end audit, which could result in significant differences from this preliminary unaudited financial information.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement the Company's consolidated financial results presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, the Company uses the following measures defined as non-GAAP financial measures: non-GAAP net income, operating income, gross profit, cost of sales, selling expenses, general and administrative expenses, net income margin, operating margin, gross profit margin, and basic and diluted earnings per ADS and per share. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures, please see the table captioned "Reconciliations of non-GAAP measures to comparable GAAP measures" set forth at the end of this release.

The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding its performance by excluding share-based compensation expenses. However, non-GAAP financial measures may not be indicative of the Company's operating performance from a cash perspective. The Company believes that both management and investors benefit from these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing its performance and when planning and forecasting future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate management's internal comparisons to the Company's historical performance and liquidity. The Company computes its non-GAAP financial measures using the same consistent method from quarter to quarter. The Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors in allowing for greater transparency with respect to supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision making. A limitation of excluding share-based compensation expenses from the above-mentioned line items and presenting these non-GAAP measures is that such items may continue to be for the foreseeable future a significant recurring expense in our business. Management compensates for this limitation by providing specific information regarding the GAAP amounts excluded from each non-GAAP measure. The accompanying table at the end of this release provides more detail on the reconciliations between GAAP financial measures that are most directly comparable to non-GAAP financial measures.
