eLong, Inc. Reports Third Quarter 2007 Un-audited Financial Results
BEIJING, Nov. 13 /Xinhua-PRNewswire/ -- eLong, Inc. (Nasdaq: LONG), a leading online travel service provider in China, today reported un-audited financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2007.
Business Highlights for the Third Quarter 2007.
-- Travel revenues before business tax and surcharges comprised of hotel,
air and other travel product and service revenues, increased 12% to
RMB80.9 million for the third quarter 2007 compared with the prior year
period.
-- Travel revenues before business tax and surcharges by product line for
the third quarters of 2007 and 2006 were as follows (figures in RMB
000's):
Y/Y
Q3 2007 % Total Q3 2006 % Total Growth
Hotel commissions 64,417 80 % 57,412 80 % 12 %
Air ticketing commissions 15,585 19 % 11,045 15 % 41 %
Other travel revenue 869 1 % 3,860 5 % -77 %
Total travel revenue 80,871 100 % 72,317 100 % 12 %
-- The Company recorded an operating loss of RMB 9.3 million for the third
quarter, compared with an operating income of RMB1.7 million for the
third quarter of 2006, primarily due to greater sales and marketing
expense and consulting expenses partially offset by higher revenue.
-- The Company recorded a net loss of RMB 7.4 million for the third
quarter, compared with net income of RMB2.7 million for the third
quarter of 2006. Net income decreased RMB 10.1 million primarily due
to current quarter sales and marketing expenses of RMB 36.9 million,
which is RMB11.5 million more than the same quarter of prior year.
-- As of September 30, 2007 cash and cash equivalents were RMB1.2 billion
(US$158 million), consistent with December 31, 2006.
'The third quarter was a mixed quarter for eLong. Revenue growth was in line with our expectations and we have, managed to stabilize the decline in growth rates. However, we believe that eLong is not yet executing to its full potential and we are working hard to change that. We are very happy with the appointment of Mr. Guangfu Cui as CEO of eLong and believe he will be instrumental in improving eLong's performance going forward', said Henrik Kjellberg, Chairman and former Interim Chief Executive of eLong.
'I am delighted to be part of the eLong team. We are facing a challenging situation but eLong is structurally well positioned to achieve great results in the market place,' said Chief Executive Officer, Cui Guangfu.
'While we are keenly aware of the need for fiscal discipline, we believe eLong needs to make investments to re-accelerate its growth,' said Chris Chan, eLong's Chief Financial Officer. 'We remain confident in the long-term opportunity of China's online travel market, and over time we seek to turn the operations to top-rate customer service and higher operating leverage.'
Business Results
Total gross revenues and travel revenues both increased 12% for the third quarter of 2007 compared with the prior year period, reflecting continued growth in our core hotel commissions business and the 41% increase in air ticketing commissions.
Hotel
Hotel commission revenue increased 12% year-over-year primarily due to higher room volume. Room nights booked through eLong increased 13% to 1,009,000, while commission per room night remained unchanged as RMB64.
eLong has grown its hotel offering over 29% since third quarter 2006, and now features discounted rates at more than 4,700 hotels in over 300 cities across China.
Air
Air ticketing commission revenue increased 41% primarily due to a 36% increase in air segments to 370,000, as well as a 4% increase in commission per air ticket to RMB42.
Profitability
Gross margin in the third quarter was 74%, a decrease of 200 basis points compared with 76% in the prior year period. Gross margin decreased due to the increased mix of lower margin air commissions and increased compensation expense in our call center.
Operating expenses for the third quarter of 2007 and 2006 were as follows
(figures in RMB 000's):
Q3 % Net % Net Y/Y
2007(2) Revenue Q3 2006(1) Revenue Growth
Service development 12,196 15 % 10,718 15 % 14 %
Sales and marketing 36,858 47 % 25,331 36 % 46 %
General and
administrative 18,277 23 % 15,376 22 % 19 %
Amortization of
intangibles 265 0 % 265 0 % 0 %
Total operating
expenses 67,596 85 % 51,690 73 % 31 %
Note 1: Effective third quarter 2006, prior period service development and
sales and marketing, have been restated to exclude expenses
related to our discontinued operations
Note 2: Effective from third quarter 2007, business tax expense and
related surcharges have been presented on a net basis (excluded
from revenues). The Company believes the net presentation is
preferable accounting principle because the revenue amount after
deduction of business tax expense and related surcharge represents
the benefit to be retained by the Company. Amounts for all prior
periods presented have been reclassified for comparative purpose.
For impact of this change on prior quarters, please refer to
appendix 'Business tax presentation change effect'.
The total of service development, sales and marketing, general and administrative expense increased 31% during the third quarter; total operating expenses increased 31% as well.
Service development expense is composed of expenses related to technology and product offering, including our website, the platform and the Company's air and hotel products. Third quarter service development expense increased 14% over the prior year period and service development expense as a percentage of net revenue increased 22 basis points to 15% as we maintained the pace of investment in our air booking and online payment platforms, and invested in website and hotel product enhancements.
Sales and marketing expense increased 46% over the prior year period, and increased 11% as a percentage of net revenue to 47%. The increased expense was due to higher advertising and promotion spending as well as increased sales commissions in line with revenue growth.
General and administrative expense increased 19% over the prior year period mainly due to increases in consulting and recruiting fees. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of net revenue increased 131 basis points to 23% in the third quarter.
Operating loss was RMB9.3 million as compared to an operating income of RMB1.7 million in the third quarter of 2006, an increased loss of RMB11.0 million primarily due to higher spending in sales and marketing and consulting fees offset partially by higher revenue.
Other income, which represents interest income, unrealized exchange gains/losses and other income/expense, was RMB1.1 million in the third quarter of 2007, primarily due to an unrealized foreign exchange loss of RMB13.7 million resulting from appreciation in the Renminbi compared with the prior year. This exchange loss was partially offset by interest income of RMB14.4 million in the third quarter of 2007.
The company recorded a net loss of RMB7.4 million for the third quarter compared to a net income of RMB2.7 million in the prior year period, an increased loss of RMB10.1 million primarily due to RMB11.5 million in higher sales and marketing expenses in the third quarter of 2007.
Our US GAAP diluted loss per ADS for the third quarter of 2007 was RMB0.30 compared to a diluted income per ADS of RMB0.10 in the prior year period.
