NetEase.com Reports First Quarter 2010
Unaudited Financial Results
(Beijing – May 20, 2010) – NetEase.com, Inc. (NASDAQ: NTES), one of China’s leading Internet and online game services providers, today announced its unaudited financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2010.
William Ding, Chief Executive Officer and Director of NetEase, stated, “For the first quarter, total revenues from online games increased by approximately 50% year-over-year, primarily due to revenues generated from new games and the operation of Blizzard Entertainment’s World of Warcraft®.”
“Our fourth quarter 2009 release of Fantasy Westward Journey’s ninth expansion pack, Ancient Runes, delivered favorable feedback from players as reflected in the new player statistics during the first quarter of 2010 as compared with the preceding quarter. We plan to launch two additional expansion packs for Westward Journey II and III during the third quarter of 2010, reflecting our continuing effort to update content and promote new user interest for these games.”
“The Flying Dragon expansion pack for Tianxia II was launched in December 2009 and, as expected, delivered strong growth in new player statistics for the first quarter. We plan to issue another new expansion pack to coincide with the first anniversary of Tianxia II in September 2010, along with a series of sales promotion activities to drive further growth for this game. We also commercially launched Heroes of Tang Dynasty in April 2010 following successful closed beta testing results, and plan to launch an expansion pack for this game in the fourth quarter of 2010.”
“World of Warcraft, a game licensed from Blizzard Entertainment, performed well during the first quarter. In addition, we are currently testing ways to expand the game’s presence in certain second- and third-tier cities in China. Our application for the launch of Blizzard Entertainment’s Wrath of the Lich King®, the game’s second expansion set, is currently under regulatory review.”

Mr. Ding continued, “Our advertising revenue for the first quarter of 2010 was more than double that of the first quarter of 2009, which indicates the rebound in the Chinese advertising market and successful execution of our advertising and portal development strategies. The quarter-over-quarter decline of approximately 50% from our strong fourth quarter 2009 revenue result reflects typical industry seasonality. Portal traffic grew steadily in the first quarter, and we achieved our largest quarterly increase in new e-mail accounts in over a year.”
First Quarter 2010 Financial Results
Revenues
Total revenues for the first quarter of 2010 were RMB1.2 billion (US$175.1 million), compared to RMB1.3 billion and RMB781.7 million for the preceding quarter and the first quarter of 2009, respectively.
Revenues from online games were RMB1.1 billion (US$159.0 million) for the first quarter of 2010, compared to RMB1.1 billion and RMB724.0 million for the preceding quarter and the first quarter of 2009, respectively.
Revenues from advertising services were RMB91.5 million (US$13.4 million) for the first quarter of 2010, compared to RMB183.7 million and RMB41.0 million for the preceding quarter and the first quarter of 2009, respectively.
Revenues from wireless value-added services and others (“WVAS and others”) were RMB18.1 million (US$2.6 million) for the first quarter of 2010, compared to RMB18.5 million and RMB16.6 million for the preceding quarter and the first quarter of 2009, respectively.
Gross Profit
Gross profit for the first quarter of 2010 was RMB780.7 million (US$114.4 million), compared to RMB844.1 million and RMB641.7 million for the preceding quarter and the first quarter of 2009, respectively. The quarter-over-quarter decrease in gross profit was primarily attributable to a seasonal decline in advertising revenue. The year-over-year increase in gross profit was primarily attributable to increased online game revenue, mainly from World of Warcraft operations, and increased advertising revenue, mainly attributable to the rebound in the Chinese advertising market and the successful execution of our advertising and portal development strategies in the first quarter of 2010. The foregoing revenue increases were partially offset by increased cost of revenues, mainly attributable to royalties and consultancy fees related to World of Warcraft operations, headcount-related staffing costs for both the online game and advertising businesses and increased content costs in the first quarter of 2010.
Gross Profit (Loss) Margin
Gross profit margin for the online game business for the first quarter of 2010 was 72.1%, compared to 70.8% and 90.0% for the preceding quarter and the first quarter of 2009, respectively. The slight quarter-over-quarter improvement in gross profit margin was due to the change of product mix in the first quarter of 2010. The year-over-year decrease in gross profit margin was primarily due to World of Warcraft operations in the current quarter. Lower margin was reported for World of Warcraft operations compared to the Company’s in-house developed games primarily because of royalties, amortization of license fees and technical consultancy service fees associated with the licensing and operation of Blizzard Entertainment’s World of Warcraft.
Gross profit margin for the advertising business for the first quarter of 2010 was 22.9%, compared to 58.4% and gross loss margin of 13.1% for the preceding quarter and the first quarter of 2009, respectively. The quarter-over-quarter decrease in gross profit margin was primarily due to a significant decrease in advertising revenues as explained above, which was partially offset by a relatively small reduction in related costs of revenue. The year-over-year increase in gross profit margin was primarily due to the significant increase in advertising revenue in the first quarter of 2010 as explained above.

Table of Contents
Gross loss margin for the WVAS and others business for the first quarter of 2010 was 34.0%, compared to 38.5% and 22.3% for the preceding quarter and the first quarter of 2009, respectively. The quarter-over-quarter decrease in gross loss margin was mainly due to reduced depreciation charge as servers associated with WVAS operations became fully depreciated and reduced other miscellaneous cost of revenues in the current quarter. The year-over-year increase in gross loss margin was mainly due to increased server custody usage fees in the current quarter resulting from volume increases associated with the Company’s free email and photo blog services and higher headcount-related costs, partially offset by reduced depreciation charge in the current quarter as assets became fully depreciated.
Operating Expenses
Total operating expenses for the first quarter of 2010 were RMB225.7 million (US$33.1 million), compared to RMB237.0 million and RMB150.6 million for the preceding quarter and the first quarter of 2009, respectively. The quarter-over-quarter decrease in operating expenses was mainly due to reduced marketing spending on corporate brand-building and game-specific promotional activities in the current quarter and decreased headcount-related staffing costs. The year-over-year increase in operating expense was primarily due to the significant increases in advertising spending on corporate-brand building and marketing promotion of Fantasy Westward Journey and Blizzard Entertainment’s World of Warcraft, and increased headcount-related staffing costs in the sales and marketing and research and development areas.
Net Profit
Net profit for the first quarter of 2010 totaled RMB452.3 million (US$66.3 million), compared to RMB571.8 million and RMB416.7 million for the preceding quarter and the first quarter of 2009, respectively. During the first quarter of 2010, the Company reported a net foreign exchange loss of RMB39.5 million (US$5.8 million) under Other, net, compared to RMB15.3 million and RMB47.5 million for the preceding quarter and the first quarter of 2009, respectively. The quarter-over-quarter and year-over-year changes in foreign exchange losses were mainly due to the translation losses arising from the Company’s Euro-denominated bank deposit balances as of March 31, 2010 as the exchange rate of the Euro against the RMB fluctuated over the periods. NetEase reported basic and diluted earnings per ADS of US$0.51 each for the first quarter of 2010. The Company reported basic and diluted earnings per ADS of US$0.65 and US$0.64 and US$0.48 and US$0.47 for the preceding quarter and the first quarter of 2009, respectively.
Income Taxes
The Company recorded a net income tax charge of RMB94.5 million (US$13.8 million) for the first quarter of 2010, compared with RMB71.2 million and RMB61.7 million for the preceding quarter and the first quarter of 2009, respectively. The effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2010 was 17.4% as compared to 11.3% and 12.9% for the preceding quarter and the first quarter of 2009, respectively. The quarter-over-quarter increase in effective tax rate was mainly due to the reduction in income tax charge of certain subsidiaries for the first three quarters of 2009 recorded in the fourth quarter of 2009, reflecting qualification for preferred tax status being received in December 2009. The year-over-year increase in effective tax rate was primarily due to the fact that one of the Company’s principal subsidiaries reported its tax charge at the rate of 7.5% in the first quarter of 2009 as well as the fact that the net income derived from operations of Blizzard Entertainment’s World of Warcraft is subject to the standard enterprise income tax rate of 25% in China in the first quarter of 2010.

Notes to Unaudited Financial Information

The audit of the financial statements and related notes to be included in the Company’s annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2009 is still in progress. In addition, because an audit of the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting in connection with section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 has not yet been completed, the Company makes no representation as to the effectiveness of those internal controls as of the end of fiscal year 2009.
Adjustments to the financial statements may be identified when the audit work is completed, which could result in significant differences between the Company’s audited financial statements and this preliminary unaudited financial information.
