“We are pleased to announce our first quarter 2010 results,” commented Mr. Michael Chi, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Perfect World. “Our first quarter results came in line with our previous expectations as our games continued to perform well. Although we experienced some technical complications during some major updates on a recently launched new game, we have solved the problems and are working on a soon-to-be launched major expansion pack with a lot of enhanced content to further drive the user base. This was a valuable experience for us, and we will try our best to avoid similar issues in future developments for both new and existing games. Despite this occurrence and the adverse seasonality factors, we continued to grow the popularity of some of our existing games to deliver sequential growth.”

“We continue to focus on investing in our R&D team to further strengthen our game development capabilities. By doing so, we are able to deliver a strong and sustainable pipeline of notably differentiated games that span the 3D, 2.5D and 2D market segments. Our specialized game engines and production studios allow us to remain highly competitive in the industry as we build franchises that include flagship titles in each of these market segments.”

“Our overseas expansion continues to progress and we are quite satisfied with the development so far. We continued to sign new licensing agreements with various overseas game operators and are strengthening our penetration worldwide. Our U.S. operations are also progressing well. We recently launched ‘Battle of the Immortals’ in North America through our wholly-owned subsidiary in the U.S. The initial feedback has been very positive. Furthermore, in April, we acquired C&C Media Co., Ltd. (“C&C Media”), our long-term Japanese operation partner, to capture the growth opportunities in Japan and further expand our overseas operating capabilities.”

“As a part of our growth strategy, we continuously monitor the market for acquisition opportunities that will generate synergies with our core business. I am excited to announce some recent developments on this front. We recently made a strategic investment to acquire a majority stake in Runic Games, Inc. (“Runic Games”), a top-tier game development studio based in the U.S., to further strengthen our R&D capabilities. By collaborating more closely with Runic’s professional team, we seek to combine their creativity and expertise in game development with our deep understanding of the online game market to create global titles. We also exercised an option to increase our stake in Chengdu Ye Net Science and Technology Development Co., Ltd. (“Ye Net”), a web game developer and operator. Through enhanced control, we believe we will have greater flexibility to generate valuable synergies between the web game business and our core business.”

“We are excited about the prospects that our industry presents and believe we are well-positioned to capture future opportunities. We will continue to dedicate our strong resources to longer-term projects to effectively lengthen the life cycle of both new and existing games that meet the expectations from game players around the world. Our long-term oriented management team is committed to driving the sustainable growth of our Company while increasing value for our shareholders.”

First Quarter 2010 Financial Results

Total Revenues

Total revenues were RMB625.0 million (USD91.6 million) in 1Q10, an increase of 2.8%, or RMB17.1 million, from RMB607.9 million in 4Q09, and an increase of 47.0%, or RMB199.9 million, from RMB425.1 million in 1Q09.

Online game operation revenues were RMB569.7 million (USD83.5 million) in 1Q10, an increase of 5.2%, or RMB27.9 million, from RMB541.8 million in 4Q09, and an increase of 51.0%, or RMB192.5 million, from RMB377.2 million in 1Q09. The sequential growth in online game operation revenues was primarily attributable to the continued popularity of some of the Company’s existing games and a series of successful in-game promotions and marketing activities.

The aggregate average concurrent users (ACU) for games under operation in mainland China was approximately 993,000 in 1Q10, as compared to 1,157,000 in 4Q09 and 615,000 in 1Q09. The active paying customers (APC) for games operated in mainland China under the item-based revenue model was approximately 1,670,000 in 1Q10, as compared to 2,188,000 in 4Q09 and 1,464,000 in 1Q09. The average revenue per active paying customer (ARPU) for games operated in mainland China under the item-based revenue model was RMB306 in 1Q10, as compared to RMB223 in 4Q09 and RMB244 in 1Q09. ACU and APC decreased by 14.2% and 23.7%, respectively, from 4Q09. This was mainly due to some technical complications that occurred during some major updates on a recently launched new game, as well as the adverse seasonality factors and more aggressive anti-cheating efforts adopted by the Company. However, the Company still managed to increase ARPU by 37.2% from 4Q09 through a series of successful promotions.

Overseas licensing revenues were RMB53.4 million (USD7.8 million) in 1Q10, as compared to RMB61.7 million in 4Q09 and RMB48.0 million in 1Q09. The decrease from 4Q09 was mainly attributed to a decline in usage-based royalty fees due to adverse seasonality in certain overseas markets, and a decrease in initial license fees as the Company did not commercially launch any game in overseas market in 1Q10.

Film, television and other revenues were RMB2.0 million (USD0.3 million) in 1Q10, as compared to RMB4.5 million in 4Q09 and Nil in 1Q09.

Cost of Revenues

The cost of revenues was RMB87.1 million (USD12.8 million) in 1Q10, as compared to RMB81.5 million in 4Q09 and RMB56.4 million in 1Q09.

The online game related cost was RMB87.1 million (USD12.8 million) in 1Q10, as compared to RMB79.8 million in 4Q09 and RMB56.4 million in 1Q09. The increase from 4Q09 was mainly due to an increase in staff related cost and depreciation expense.

The film, television and other cost was RMB24.9 thousand (USD3.6 thousand) in 1Q10, as compared to RMB1.7 million in 4Q09 and Nil in 1Q09.

Gross Profit and Gross Margin

Gross profit was RMB537.9 million (USD78.8 million) in 1Q10, an increase of 2.2%, or RMB11.5 million, from RMB526.4 million in 4Q09, and an increase of 45.9%, or RMB169.2 million, from RMB368.7 million in 1Q09. Gross margin was 86.1% in 1Q10, as compared to 86.6% in 4Q09 and 86.7% in 1Q09.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses were RMB214.8 million (USD31.5 million) in 1Q10, as compared to RMB249.8 million in 4Q09 and RMB138.3 million in 1Q09. The decrease in operating expenses from 4Q09 was mainly attributed to lower sales and marketing expenses, and was partially offset by higher general and administrative expenses and R&D expenses.

Sales and marketing expenses decreased by 34.1%, or RMB42.5 million, from RMB124.7 million in 4Q09 to RMB82.2 million (USD12.0 million) in 1Q10. This was largely due to lower advertising and promotional expenses as the Company did not launch new game in 1Q10. In addition, the decrease from 4Q09 was also attributable to the special charge of approximately RMB17.5 million in 4Q09 associated with a change in the estimated useful lives of certain intangible assets acquired from InterServ which are related to outsourcing services.

R&D expenses increased by 1.2%, or RMB0.9 million, from RMB76.9 million in 4Q09 to RMB77.8 million (USD11.4 million) in 1Q10. The increase from 4Q09 was primarily due to an increase in staff cost as the Company continued to expand its R&D talent pool.

General and administrative expenses increased by 13.5%, or RMB6.5 million, from RMB48.3 million in 4Q09 to RMB54.8 million (USD8.0 million) in 1Q10. The increase from 4Q09 was mainly due to an increase in professional service expenses.

Operating Profit

Operating profit was RMB323.2 million (USD47.3 million) in 1Q10, an increase of 16.9%, or RMB46.6 million, from RMB276.5 million in 4Q09, and an increase of 40.3%, or RMB92.8 million, from RMB230.4 million in 1Q09. Non-GAAP operating profit was RMB344.9 million (USD50.5 million) in 1Q10, an increase of 15.6%, or RMB46.5 million, from RMB298.5 million in 4Q09, and an increase of 40.3%, or RMB99.1 million, from RMB245.8 million in 1Q09.

Total Other Income

Total other income was RMB10.5 million (USD1.5 million) in 1Q10, as compared to RMB11.8 million in 4Q09 and RMB5.0 million in 1Q09.

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense was RMB28.7 million (USD4.2 million) in 1Q10, as compared to RMB17.5 million in 4Q09 and RMB19.9 million in 1Q09. Beijing Perfect World Software Co., Ltd. (“PW Software”), the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, is qualified as a high and new technology enterprise and was entitled to a tax exemption in 2007, 2008 and 2009 and enjoys a 50% reduction of its applicable corporate income tax rate in 2010. The corporate income tax applied to PW Software in 1Q10 caused the increase in income tax expense from 4Q09. If PW Software will continue to be qualified as high and new technology enterprise from 2011 to 2012, it will continue to be entitled to a 50% reduction of its applicable corporate income tax rate from 2011 to 2012.

Net Income Attributable to the Company’s Shareholders

Net income attributable to the Company’s shareholders was RMB305.2 million (USD44.7 million) in 1Q10, an increase of 12.7%, or RMB34.3 million, from RMB270.8 million in 4Q09, and an increase of 41.6%, or RMB89.7 million, from RMB215.4 million in 1Q09. Non-GAAP net income attributable to the Company’s shareholders was RMB327.0 million (USD47.9 million) in 1Q10, an increase of 11.7%, or RMB34.2 million, from RMB292.8 million in 4Q09, and an increase of 41.6%, or RMB96.1 million, from RMB230.9 million in 1Q09.

Basic and diluted earnings per ADS were RMB6.12 (USD0.90) and RMB5.75 (USD0.84), respectively, in 1Q10, as compared to RMB5.44 and RMB5.09, respectively, in 4Q09, and RMB4.14 and RMB3.96, respectively, in 1Q09. Non-GAAP basic and diluted earnings per ADS were RMB6.56 (USD0.96) and RMB6.16 (USD0.90), respectively, in 1Q10, as compared to RMB5.88 and RMB5.50, respectively, in 4Q09, and RMB4.43 and RMB4.25, respectively, in 1Q09.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

As of March 31, 2010, the Company had RMB1,876.9 million (USD275.0 million) of cash and cash equivalents, as compared to RMB1,567.2 million as of December 31, 2009. The increase was mainly due to net cash inflow generated from the Company’s online game operations.

Recent Developments

Acquisition of C&C Media Co., Ltd.

In April 2010, the Company acquired C&C Media, a Japanese online game operator, to capture the growth opportunities in Japan and expand the Company’s overseas operating capabilities. C&C Media is currently operating six games in Japan, including four games developed by Perfect World.

Investment in Runic Games, Inc.

In May 2010, the Company acquired a majority stake in Runic Games, a specialized developer of PC-based entertainment software in the U.S., at the consideration of approximately US$8.4 million. Runic Games has a team of experienced developers, including leads on “Diablo,” “Diablo II,” “Diablo II: Lord of Destruction,” “Fate,” “Hellgate: London” and “Mythos.” Runic Games has developed and released a single-player action-RPG “Torchlight,” and is currently developing the MMORPG version of “Torchlight.” This strategic investment will allow the Company to further enhance its strong R&D capabilities, and leverage Runic Games’ creative and professional development team to create global titles through enhanced control and a closer collaboration.

Investment in Chengdu Ye Net Science and Technology Development Co., Ltd.

In April 2010, Chengdu Perfect World Network Technology Co., Ltd. (“Chengdu PW Network”), an entity controlled by the Company, exercised an option to acquire an additional stake in Ye Net, a web game developer and operator. Following the completion of the transaction, the Company’s effective equity stake in Ye Net will be increased to 80%. This investment provides the Company with enhanced control and greater flexibility in generating synergies between the web game business and the Company’s core business.

Business Outlook

Based on the Company’s current operations, total revenues for the second quarter of 2010 are expected to be between RMB594 million and RMB625 million, representing an increase of 14% to 20% on a year-over-year basis, and a flat to mild decline on a sequential basis. In order to lengthen the life cycle of the Company’s existing games to maintain sustainable growth, the Company decided to decelerate some of the in-game promotions and monetization activities in the second quarter to further nurture the games and grow user base. In addition, this also reflects the impact of suspending game services in response to the one-day national mourning on April 21, 2010 for earthquake victims in Yushu, Qinghai Province.

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.
