BEIJING, Aug. 13 /Xinhua-PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Xinhua Finance
Media Limited (NASDAQ:XFML) ("XFMedia", or "the Company"), China's
leading diversified financial and entertainment media company,
today announced its unaudited financial results for the second
quarter ended June 30, 2007. Second Quarter 2007 Highlights -- Net
revenue for the second quarter of 2007 was $29.0 million, up 222%
year-over-year from $9.0 million in the second quarter of 2006 and
up 74% sequentially from $16.7 million in the first quarter of
2007. The increase in revenue was driven mainly by strong organic
business growth; existing businesses contributed $27.5 million
while new acquisitions contributed $1.5 million to the quarter. --
EBITDA (non-GAAP), defined as earnings before interest expense,
taxes, depreciation, amortization and share-based compensation
expenses, for the second quarter of 2007 was $9.1 million, up 349%
year-over-year from $2.0 million in the second quarter of 2006 or
up 50% sequentially from $6.1 million in the first quarter of 2007.
-- Net income for the second quarter of 2007 was $2.3 million, up
1026% year-over-year from $0.2 million in the second quarter of
2006 or down 82% sequentially from $12.6 million in the first
quarter of 2007. The $12.6 million in the first quarter of 2007
included a $12.3 million one time gain from the reduction of
deferred tax liabilities due to a reduction of the statutory
corporate income tax rate in the People's Republic of China.
Excluding this one-time gain, net income was up 765% sequentially
compared to the first quarter of 2007. -- Adjusted net income
(non-GAAP), defined as net income before share- based compensation
expenses, for the second quarter of 2007 was $2.8 million, up 748%
year-over-year from $0.3 million in the second quarter of 2006 or
down 80% sequentially from $14.0 million in the first quarter of
2007. Without the one time gain of $12.3 million mentioned above,
adjusted net income (non-GAAP) was up 64% sequentially when
compared to adjusted net income (non-GAAP) in the first quarter of
2007. "We are pleased to report strong results for the second
quarter of 2007," said Ms Fredy Bush, XFMedia's Chief Executive
Officer. "Our business continues to grow organically and through
strategic acquisitions, demonstrating the company's ability to
execute our business plan and generate profitability." "We continue
to add breadth and depth to our nationwide China advertising
platform through acquisitions. Our direct access to the growing
number of high net worth and upwardly mobile individuals across
China has been further enhanced through expanded offerings of
person-to-person, below-the-line marketing services and mobile
value-added services." Second Quarter 2007 Financial Results Net
revenue for the second quarter of 2007 was $29.0 million, up 222%
year-over-year from $9.0 million in the second quarter of 2006 or
up 74% sequentially from $16.7 million in the first quarter of
2007. Net Revenues by type and segment The following is a summary
of net revenue relating to each segment reconciled to amounts on
the accompanying consolidated financial statements for the second
quarter of 2007: Advertising Broadcast Print Net revenues: Media
production $ -- $ -- $ -- Advertising sales $ -- 3,508,973
2,968,453 Advertising services 15,267,101 683,396 1,751,747

$28,959,533 Advertising Group Net revenue for the Advertising Group
for the second quarter of 2007 was $15.3 million, up 166%
year-over-year from $5.7 million in the second quarter of 2006 or
up 108% sequentially from $7.3 million in the first quarter of
2007. The Advertising Group consists of end-to-end agency services
for television, print/online, outdoor/other advertising services,
and below-the-line marketing. Television Advertising Net revenue
for Television for the second quarter of 2007 was $4.8 million, up
133% year-over-year from $2.1 million in the second quarter of 2006
or up 370% sequentially from $1.0 million in the first quarter of
2007. The increase was driven by increased sellout rate of our
advertising time inventory. Print/Online Advertising Net revenue
for Print for the second quarter of 2007 was $6.0 million, up 191%
year-over-year from $2.0 million in the second quarter of 2006 or
up 25% sequentially from $4.8 million in the first quarter of 2007.
The increase was mainly driven by the expansion of the online
advertising business. Outdoor/Other Advertising Services Net
revenue for Outdoor/Other for the second quarter of 2007 was $3.7
million, up 127% year-over-year from $1.6 million in the second
quarter of 2006 or up 141% sequentially from $1.6 million in the
first quarter of 2007. The increase in net revenue for this quarter
was mainly driven by increased advertisement design and creative
projects. Below-The-Line Marketing Below-the-line marketing, which
involves the planning and creation of person-to-person marketing
experiences at shopping malls, supermarkets, campuses, clubs and
other entertainment outlets, enhances the effectiveness of our
existing multi-tiered advertising platform. The Advertising Group
expanded its below-the-line marketing services with the acquisition
of Shanghai Singshine Marketing Service Ltd ("SSMS") on June 11,
2007. SSMS generated post acquisition net revenue of $0.8 million
for the second quarter of 2007. Broadcast Group Net revenue for the
Broadcast Group for the second quarter of 2007 was $4.2 million
(there is no comparable revenue for Broadcast Group in the second
quarter of 2006 since the Broadcast Group business was acquired
only in the third quarter of 2006), which is in line with
management expectations and compares with $4.2 million in the first
quarter of 2007. The Broadcast Group consists of the advertising
business on television and radio, and the mobile value-added
services business. Television Net revenue for the television
business for the second quarter of 2007 was $2.3 million (there is
no comparable revenue for the television business in the second
quarter of 2006 since the television business was acquired only in
the third quarter of 2006), down 38% sequentially from $3.8 million
in the first quarter of 2007. This decrease reflects the
transitional period for the repositioning of NMTV to better attract
upwardly mobile audiences. Programming changes have led to less
income from infomercials that have been replaced by new programs
that have not yet been on the air long enough to generate new
revenues. Radio Net revenue for the radio business for the second
quarter of 2007 was $1.2 million (there is no comparable revenue
for the radio business in the second quarter of 2006 since the
radio business was acquired in the third quarter of 2006), up 180%
sequentially from $0.4 million in the first quarter of 2007. The
sequential increase in net revenue was mainly driven by increased
advertising contracts entered in the second quarter of 2007. We
completed the acquisition of Guangzhou Singshine Communication Co.,
Ltd ("SSC") on June 11, 2007 which contributed $0.1 million in post
acquisition net revenue for the second quarter of 2007. The
acquisition of SSC expanded the geographic coverage of XFMedia's
radio advertising and radio program consultation from northern to
southern China. Mobile Services We completed the acquisition of
Beijing Mobile Interactive Co., Ltd. ("M- in") on June 4, 2007,
which contributed approximately $0.7 million in post acquisition
net revenue for the second quarter of 2007. Through this
acquisition, XFMedia is able to integrate interactive mobile
services capabilities into its existing media platform and directly
market to a potential audience of 487 million mobile phone users
nationwide through mobile phone advertising. Print Group Net
revenue for the Print Group for the second quarter of 2007 was $5.0
million, up 136% year-over-year from $2.1 million in the second
quarter of 2006 or up 47% sequentially from $3.4 million in the
first quarter of 2007. The Print Group consists of the advertising
business in newspapers and magazines. Newspaper Net revenue for the
newspaper business for the second quarter of 2007 was $2.2 million,
up 333% year-over-year from $0.5 million in the second quarter of
2006 or up 12% sequentially from $1.9 million in the first quarter
of 2007. The year-over-year increase in net revenue was mainly
driven by the fact that the newspaper business was only acquired in
June 2006. The sequential increase was driven mainly by an increase
in average price of ad pages sold. Magazine Net revenue for the
magazine business for the second quarter of 2007 was $2.8 million,
up 75% year-over-year from $1.6 million in the second quarter of
2006 or up 94% sequentially from $1.5 million in the first quarter
of 2007. The sequential increase in net revenue was mainly driven
by the increase in number of events organized, circulation of
magazines and number of ad pages sold. Production Group Net revenue
for the Production Group for the second quarter of 2007 was $3.1
million, up 165% year-over-year from $1.1 million in the second
quarter of 2006 or up 291% sequentially from $0.8 million in the
first quarter of 2007. The Production Group consists of TV Drama
and Program Production, TV Channel Branding and Consulting, and
Animation and Special Effects Production. TV Drama and Program
Production Net revenue for the TV Drama and Program Production
business for the second quarter of 2007 was $2.7 million, up 239%
year-over-year from $0.8 million in the second quarter of 2006 or
up 1802% sequentially from $0.1 million in the first quarter of
2007. The sequential increase in net revenue was mainly driven by
the completion and distribution of the TV drama series "Floating
Dust of Earth" in the second quarter of 2007. TV Channel Branding
and Consulting Net revenue for the TV Channel Branding and
Consulting business for the second quarter of 2007 was $0.3
million, down 18% year-over-year from $0.3 million in the second
quarter of 2006 or down 32% sequentially from $0.4 million in the
first quarter of 2007. The drop was driven primarily by the focus
on bidding for the CCTV5 Olympic branding project. The Production
Group won a contract to re-brand Hebei Movie and Drama TV Channel
in the second quarter of 2007. Animation and Special Effects
Production Net revenue for the Animation and Special Effects
Production business for the second quarter of 2007 was $0.1
million, up 340% year-over-year from $23,000 in the second quarter
of 2006 or down 55% sequentially from $0.2 million in the first
quarter of 2007. The drop was driven by timing of the completion of
various projects and current investment in the pre-production of
the Beijing Fire Department's firefighter animation series.
Research Group Net revenue for the Research Group for the second
quarter of 2007 was $1.5 million (there is no comparable revenue in
the second quarter of 2006 since the Research Group business was
only acquired in the third quarter of 2006), or up 51% sequentially
from $1.0 million in the first quarter of 2007. The sequential
increase in net revenue was mainly driven by increased number of
completed contracts. Cost of Revenues Cost of revenues for the
second quarter of 2007 was $17.2 million, up 213% year-over-year
from $5.5 million in the second quarter of 2006 or up 48%
sequentially from $11.7 million in the first quarter of 2007. The
increase in cost of revenues is in line with increase in net
revenues, which increased by 222% year-to-year or 74% sequentially.
The cost of revenues for the five business segments are as follows:
Advertising Broadcast Print Cost of revenues: Media production $ --

Operating Expenses Operating expenses for the second quarter of
2007 were $9.0 million, up 203% year-over-year from $3.0 million in
the second quarter of 2006 or up 37% sequentially from $6.6 million
in the first quarter of 2007. Total operating expenses were
composed of selling and marketing expenses and general and
administrative expenses. Selling and marketing expenses for the
second quarter of 2007 were $3.2 million, up 192% year-over-year
from $1.1 million in the second quarter of 2006 or up 100%
sequentially from $1.6 million in the first quarter of 2007. The
increase was driven by increase in sales commission in proportion
to the growth in net revenue and increase in promotional expenses.

were $5.8 million, up 209% year-over-year from $1.9 in the second
quarter of 2006 or up 17% sequentially from $5.0 million in the
first quarter of 2007. The year-over-year increase is reflective of
the general growth of our business as well as the expenses related
to becoming a public company. Included in the general and
administrative expenses were share-based compensation expenses of
US$0.5 million. EBITDA (non-GAAP) EBITDA (non-GAAP), defined as
earnings before interest expense, taxes, depreciation, amortization

Non-GAAP Financial Measures To supplement XFMedia's consolidated
financial results presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, XFMedia
uses the following measures defined as non- GAAP financial measures
by the SEC: EBITDA, net income excluding share-based compensation
expenses. 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
U.S. GAAP. For more information on these non-GAAP financial
measures, please see the table captioned "Reconciliations of GAAP
and non-GAAP results" set forth at the end of this release. XFMedia
believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful
supplemental information regarding its performance and liquidity.
XFMedia believes that both management and investors benefit from
referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing its
performance and when planning and forecasting future periods.
XFMedia computes its non-GAAP financial measures using the same
consistent method from quarter to quarter. XFMedia 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 using non-GAAP net profit excluding share-based
compensation expenses is that share-based compensation expenses
have been and will continue to be a significant recurring expense
in our business. A limitation of using non-GAAP EBITDA is that it
does not include all items that impact our net income for the
period. Management compensates for these limitations by providing
specific information regarding the GAAP amounts excluded from each
non-GAAP measure. The accompanying tables have more details on the
reconciliations between GAAP financial measures that are most
directly comparable to non-GAAP financial measures. Reconciliations

consolidated balance sheets Information was extracted from the
audited financial statements included in the prospectus on Form-1
of the Company filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on
March 8, 2007. 2) Restricted cash Restricted cash is US dollar cash
deposits pledged for the RMB loan facilities granted by banks for
RMB working capital purposes. 3) Accounts receivables and debtors
turnover Debtors turnover for the first quarter and second quarter
of 2007 was 98 days and 97 days respectively. Our business groups
generally granted 90 days to 180 days average credit period to
major customers, which is in line with the industry practices in
the PRC. 4) Intangible assets Net book value for intangible assets
as of June 30, 2007 was $235.5 million. It mainly represents the
fair value of the long term advertising agreements for the
Broadcast and Print Group. The net book value of the intangible
assets were primarily composed of $101.2 million advertising
license agreement for our TV business, $60.1 million exclusive
advertising agreement for our newspaper business, and $48.8 million
exclusive advertising agreements we entered for radio advertising
operations in Shanghai, Beijing and Guangdong. We are in the
process of obtaining third-party valuations of certain identifiable
intangible assets for the acquisitions we completed in the second
quarter and hence the net book value for intangible assets is
preliminary and subject to revision once we complete the valuation
exercise. 5) Net revenue and cost of revenue For net revenue and
cost of revenue, there was a reclassification of $2.1 million for
Broadcast Group from advertising services to advertising sales for
the first quarter of 2007. 6) Other operating income Other
operating income of $2.3 million represents reimbursement of IPO
related expenses by Bank of New York. Those expenses, all of which
had been recorded in the 2006 income statement as operating
expenses because they were not considered to be directly related to
the sale of securities, related primarily to audit fees and fees
paid to consultants during the listing process. 7) Amortization
included in cost of sales, selling expenses, or administrative
expenses Amortization for the first quarter and second quarter of
2007 were $3.1 million and $3.4 million respectively. It mainly
represents the amortization of the intangible assets as mentioned
in note 4. The amortization for the TV license agreement was $1.3
million for both first and second quarter of 2007. The amortization
for the newspaper exclusive advertising agreement was $0.4 million
for both first and second quarter of 2007. The amortization for the
radio exclusive advertising agreements was $0.6 million for the
first quarter of 2007 and $0.7 million for the second quarter of
2007. 8) Interest expense Included in interest expense is imputed
interest of $1.8 million and $1.7 million for the first quarter and
second quarter of 2007 respectively. It mainly represents the
monthly imputed interest expense charged on the payment obligations
for the above long term contracts. For the TV license agreement,
the imputed interest each quarter in 2007 was $0.7 million. For the
Newspaper exclusive advertising agreement, the imputed interest for
the first quarter and second quarter of 2007 were $0.5 million and
$0.4 million respectively. For radio exclusive advertising
agreements, the imputed interest for the first quarter and second
quarter of 2007 was $0.6 million. 9) Provision for income taxes
Provision for income taxes included deferred tax credits of $13.1
million and $0.7 million in the first quarter and second quarter of
2007 respectively. The $13.1 million deferred tax credits in the
first quarter of 2007 included a $12.3 million gain from the
reduction of deferred tax liabilities arises from the reduction of
the enacted statutory corporate income tax rate from January 1,
2008 on March 16, 2007. Contacts Media Contact Xinhua Finance Media
