BEIJING/SANTA CLARA, Calif. – April 22, 2009 – AsiaInfo Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: ASIA), (“AsiaInfo” or the “Company”) a leading provider of telecom software solutions and IT security products and services in China, today announced financial results for the first quarter of 2009.

“I’m pleased to report another quarter of solid growth that exceeded top-line and met bottom-line guidance,” said Mr. Steve Zhang, AsiaInfo’s president and chief executive officer. “During the quarter, we posted important market share gains in our China Unicom account with new BSS contracts in Shanghai and Hainan and in our China Telecom account with a BSS tender win in Jilin province, once again demonstrating the competitiveness of our software solutions. As we move beyond industry restructuring in the quarters and years to come, we are seeing more opportunities as carriers shift focus from building out their networks to leveraging IT software and services that will enable them to attract, retain and monetize subscribers in an increasingly competitive environment.”

First Quarter 2009 Financial Results

Total revenues for the first quarter of 2009 were US$51.0 million, an increase of 45.6% year over year and a decrease of 5.0% sequentially. Exceeding guidance, net revenue (Non-GAAP) for the first quarter of 2009 was US$47.7 million, an increase of 55.2% year over year and a decrease of 6.5% sequentially. The year-over-year increase was primarily driven by strong performance among all three major accounts in the telecom business while the sequential decrease was mainly the result of seasonal effects on the Lenovo-AsiaInfo business unit, which generally performs stronger in the second half of the year.

In the first quarter, AsiaInfo announced contracts with China Mobile to upgrade Business Operation Support Systems (“BOSS”) in 11 subsidiaries to support China Mobile’s TD-SCDMA launch, contracts with China Unicom to roll out new Business Support Systems (“BSS”) in nine subsidiaries, including new market share gains in Shanghai and Hainan, and a tender win with China Telecom to develop a BSS solution for Jilin province, also representing a gain in market share.

In the first quarter of 2009, gross margin was 54.0%, compared to 51.0% in the year-ago period and 53.5% in the previous quarter. The year-over-year increase in gross margin was primarily due to a strong contribution from higher-margin software solutions and a decrease in lower-margin third-party hardware sales. Gross profit as a percentage of net revenue (Non-GAAP) was 57.7% in the first quarter of 2009, compared to 58.1% in the year-ago period and 56.4% in the previous quarter. The Company noted that gross profit as a percentage of net revenue (non-GAAP) has remained relatively stable at around 55% for the last several quarters.

¹	Net revenue (Non-GAAP), a non-GAAP measure, represents total revenue net of third-party hardware costs. A reconciliation of net revenue (Non-GAAP) to GAAP revenue is provided at the end of this press release.

In the first quarter of 2009, the AsiaInfo Technologies business unit, which focuses on telecommunications software and services, contributed 92.5% to total revenue and 93.1% to net revenue (Non-GAAP). Total revenue for the AsiaInfo Technologies business unit increased 47.0% year over year and 12.9% sequentially to US$47.2 million. Net revenue (Non-GAAP) for the AsiaInfo Technologies business unit increased 58.6% year over year and 9.4% sequentially to US$44.4 million. The increases in net revenue (Non-GAAP) mainly reflect strong uptake for the Company’s software and service solutions among all three major telecom customers, especially in the form of upgrades to their existing IT systems to support 3G products and services.

In the first quarter of 2009, the Lenovo-AsiaInfo business unit, which focuses on IT security products and services, contributed 7.5% to total revenue and 6.9% to net revenue (Non-GAAP). Total revenue for the Lenovo-AsiaInfo business unit increased 30.6% year over year and decreased 67.9% sequentially to US$3.8 million. Net revenue (Non-GAAP) for the Lenovo-AsiaInfo business unit increased 20.0% year over year and decreased 68.5% sequentially to US$3.3 million. The year-over-year increase reflects a concerted effort to improve operations in this division. Sequentially, the decrease is mainly due to seasonality, as sales in the Lenovo-AsiaInfo business unit are typically strongest in the fourth quarter. Please refer to the end of this press release for condensed segmented financial results for AsiaInfo’s two business units.

Total operating expenses increased 40.6% year over year and 1.6% sequentially to US$21.3 million. Sales and marketing expenses increased 33.5% year over year and decreased 0.2% sequentially to US$10.5 million. The year-over-year increase was mainly due to higher sales commission expenses incurred upon signing new contracts. General and administrative expenses increased 36.7% year over year and decreased 2.7% sequentially to US$3.6 million. The year-over-year increase was largely the result of personnel increases over the year-ago period and increased share-based compensation expenses, while the sequential decrease was largely due to non-recurring professional fees incurred in the fourth quarter of 2008. Research and development expenses increased 54.9% year over year and 6.8% sequentially to US$7.2 million, mainly reflecting an increase in headcount in line with the Company’s strategy of continuing to invest in research and development of world-class products to take advantage of current and future market opportunities.

Income from operations for the first quarter of 2009 was US$6.2 million, an increase of 131.4% year over year and a decrease of 20.1% sequentially. Operating margin of total revenue² was 12.2% for the first quarter of 2009, compared to 7.7% in the year-ago period and 14.5% in the previous quarter. Operating margin of net revenue (Non-GAAP)³ was 13.0% for the first quarter of 2009, compared to 8.7% in the year-ago period and 15.2% in the previous quarter. The year-over-year improvement was mainly the result of improving economies of scale and the Company’s continued efforts to improve operational efficiency, while the sequential decline is consistent with normal seasonal fluctuations.

²	Operating margin of total revenue is operating income divided by total revenue

³	Operating margin of net revenue (Non-GAAP) is operating income divided by net revenue (Non-GAAP)

Other income for the first quarter of 2009 was US$0.8 million, compared to US$2.3 million in the previous year and a loss of US$5.1 million in the previous quarter. The year-over-year decrease was largely the result of investment gains in the first quarter of 2008 as well as lower interest rates in the first quarter of 2009, which resulted in lower interest income. The loss in the fourth quarter of 2008 was mainly the result of US$6.7 million in non-cash impairment charges related to certain short-term investments in stock funds and a long-term investment.

In the first quarter of 2009, AsiaInfo recorded net income attributable to AsiaInfo Holdings, Inc. of US$5.8 million or US$0.13 per basic share, compared to US$5.3 million or US$0.10 per basic share in the year-ago period and US$2.2 million or US$0.05 per basic share in the previous quarter.

Net income attributable to AsiaInfo Holdings, Inc. excluding share-based compensation expense, amortization of acquired intangible assets, impairment loss on investment, after-tax dividend income and gain on discontinued operations (net income attributable to AsiaInfo Holdings, Inc. (Non-GAAP)⁴) was US$7.1 million in the first quarter of 2009 or US$0.17 per basic share. Net income attributable to AsiaInfo Holdings, Inc. (Non-GAAP) in the year-ago period was US$5.2 million or US$0.12 per basic share. Net income attributable to AsiaInfo Holdings, Inc. (Non-GAAP) in the previous quarter was US$10.2 million or US$0.23 per basic share. Net income attributable to AsiaInfo Holdings, Inc. (Non-GAAP) increased 36.9% year over year and decreased 29.9% sequentially.

As of March 31, 2009, AsiaInfo had cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash totaling US$185.6 million and short-term investments totaling US$30.3 million. Operating cash flow in the first quarter of 2009 was a net outflow of approximately US$0.24 million.

Second Quarter 2009 Guidance

AsiaInfo expects second quarter 2009 net income attributable to AsiaInfo Holdings, Inc. per basic share to be in the range of US$0.14 to US$0.15, representing an increase of 17% to 25% compared to net income attributable to AsiaInfo Holdings, Inc. from continuing operations per basic share in the first quarter of 2009. The Company expects net revenue (Non-GAAP) to be in the range of US$52 million to US$53 million, an increase of 51% to 54% year over year.

information to help both management and investors compare business trends among different reporting periods on a consistent and more meaningful basis and enhance investors’ overall understanding of the Company’s current financial performance and prospects for the future.

The information contained in this document is as of April 22, 2009. AsiaInfo assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements contained in this document as a result of new information or future events or developments.

This document contains forward-looking information about AsiaInfo’s operating results and business prospects that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. You can identify these statements by the fact that they use words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” and other words and terms of similar meaning in connection with any discussion of future operating or financial performance. Among the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially are the following: government telecommunications infrastructure and budgetary policy in China; our ability to maintain our concentrated customer base; the long and variable billing cycles for our products and services that can cause our revenues and operating results to vary significantly from period to period; our ability to meet our working capital requirements; our ability to retain our executive officers; our ability to attract and retain skilled personnel; potential liabilities we are exposed to because we extend warranties to our customers; risks associated with cost overruns and delays; our ability to develop or acquire new products or enhancements to our software products that are marketable on a timely and cost-effective basis; our ability to adequately protect our proprietary rights; the competitive nature of the markets we operate in; and political and economic policies of the Chinese government. A further list and description of these risks, uncertainties, and other matters can be found in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008, and in our periodic reports on Forms 10-Q and 8-K filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission and available atwww.sec.gov.
