Fourth Quarter 2011 Unaudited Financial Results
Total revenues for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2011 were RMB369.8 million (US$58.8 million), an increase of 22.6% from RMB301.7 million for the same quarter in 2010.
Online recruitment services revenues for the fourth quarter of 2011 were RMB216.9 million (US$34.5 million), representing a 39.1% increase from RMB156.0 million for the same quarter of the prior year. The increase was primarily due to higher average revenue per unique employer as well as a greater number of unique employers using the Company’s online recruitment services. Average revenue per unique employer increased 25.1% in the fourth quarter of 2011 as compared to the same quarter in 2010 due to growing demand for online recruitment services and the impact of price increases implemented in April 2011. Unique employers increased 11.2% to 155,050 in the fourth quarter of 2011 compared with 139,487 in the same quarter of the prior year driven by new customer acquisition and greater usage of online services by employers.
Print advertising revenues for the fourth quarter of 2011 decreased 47.1% to RMB27.3 million (US$4.3 million) compared with RMB51.5 million for the same quarter in 2010. The decline was primarily due to a reduction in the number of cities where 51job Weekly is published and a 49.8% decrease in the estimated number of print advertising pages generated in the fourth quarter of 2011 to 850 from 1,694 pages in the same quarter in 2010. This decline was partially offset by higher average revenue per page. Average revenue per page increased 5.5% in the fourth quarter of 2011 as compared to the same quarter in 2010 primarily as a result of greater page volume contribution from higher priced cities.
Other human resource related revenues for the fourth quarter of 2011 increased 33.3% to RMB125.6 million (US$20.0 million) from RMB94.2 million in the same quarter of 2010 primarily due to greater market demand for our business process outsourcing, campus recruitment and training services.

Gross profit for the fourth quarter of 2011 increased 34.3% to RMB250.8 million (US$39.8 million) from RMB186.7 million for the same quarter of the prior year. Gross margin, which is gross profit as a percentage of net revenues, expanded to 71.2% in the fourth quarter of 2011 compared with 65.4% in the same quarter in 2010 primarily due to greater economies of scale and a decrease in printing related expenses.
Operating expenses for the fourth quarter of 2011 increased 27.3% to RMB138.7 million (US$22.0 million) from RMB108.9 million for the same quarter of 2010. Operating expenses as a percentage of net revenues was 39.4% for the fourth quarter of 2011 compared with 38.1% for the fourth quarter of 2010. Sales and marketing expenses for the fourth quarter of 2011 increased 16.0% to RMB97.9 million (US$15.6 million) from RMB84.4 million for the same quarter of the prior year primarily due to higher employee compensation expenses as well as headcount increases and greater advertising expenditures. General and administrative expenses for the fourth quarter of 2011 increased 66.1% to RMB40.8 million (US$6.5 million) from RMB24.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2010 primarily due to higher employee compensation, rental and office expenses.
Income from operations for the fourth quarter of 2011 increased 44.2% to RMB112.1 million (US$17.8 million) from RMB77.7 million for the same quarter of the prior year. Operating margin, which is income from operations as a percentage of net revenues, increased to 31.8% in the fourth quarter of 2011 compared with 27.2% in the same quarter of 2010.
Other income for the fourth quarter included a financial subsidy of RMB5.5 million (US$0.9 million). The effective tax rate in the fourth quarter decreased to 11.3% as a result of adjustments to income tax expense for the full year 2011 to reflect actual income tax due.
Net income for the fourth quarter of 2011 increased 70.2% to RMB113.9 million (US$18.1 million) from RMB66.9 million for the same quarter in 2010. Fully diluted earnings per common share for the fourth quarter of 2011 were RMB1.93 (US$0.31) compared with RMB1.14 for the same quarter in 2010. Fully diluted earnings per ADS for the fourth quarter of 2011 were RMB3.87 (US$0.61) compared with RMB2.28 in the fourth quarter of 2010.
In the fourth quarter of 2011, the Company recognized total share-based compensation expense of RMB11.0 million (US$1.7 million) compared with RMB4.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2010. The Company also recognized loss from foreign currency translation of RMB0.9 million (US$0.1 million) in the fourth quarter of 2011 compared with RMB3.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2010 due to an appreciation of the Renminbi against the U.S. dollar.
Excluding share-based compensation expense and loss from foreign currency translation as well as their related tax impact, non-GAAP adjusted income for the fourth quarter of 2011 increased

68.5% to RMB125.8 million (US$20.0 million) compared with RMB74.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2010.

Income from operations for 2011 increased 62.1% to RMB441.2 million (US$70.1 million) from RMB272.2 million in 2010.

Business Outlook
Based on current market conditions and factoring in a significant year-over-year decline in print revenues, the Company’s revenue target for the first quarter of 2012 is in the estimated range of RMB375 million to RMB390 million (US$59.6 million to US$62.0 million). Excluding share-based
4
compensation expense and any loss or gain from foreign currency translation as well as their related tax impact, the Company’s non-GAAP fully diluted earnings target for the first quarter of 2012 is in the estimated range of RMB2.05 to RMB2.20 per common share (US$0.65 to US$0.70 per ADS). The Company expects aggregate share-based compensation expense in the first quarter of 2012 to be approximately RMB12 million (US$1.9 million).
Currency Convenience Translation
For the convenience of readers, certain Renminbi amounts have been translated into U.S. dollars at the rate of RMB6.2939 to US$1.00, the noon buying rate on December 30, 2011 in New York for cable transfers of Renminbi as set forth in the H.10 weekly statistical release of the Federal Reserve Board.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement the consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), 51job uses non-GAAP measures of income before income tax expense, income tax expense, adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per share and adjusted earnings per ADS, which are adjusted from results based on GAAP to exclude share-based compensation expense, loss from foreign currency translation and loss from impairment of long-term investments as well as their related tax impact. The Company believes excluding share-based compensation expense and its related tax impact from its non-GAAP financial measures is useful for its management and investors to assess and analyze the Company’s core operating results as such expense is not directly attributable to the underlying
5
performance of the Company’s business operations and do not impact its cash earnings. The Company believes excluding loss from foreign currency translation and its related tax impact from its non-GAAP financial measures is useful for its management and investors as such translation loss is not indicative of the Company’s core business operations and will not result in cash settlement nor impact the Company’s cash earnings. The Company believes excluding the loss from impairment of long-term investments and its related tax impact from its non-GAAP financial measures is useful for its management and investors as such loss is unrelated to the Company’s core business operations. 51job also believes these non-GAAP measures excluding share-based compensation expense, loss from foreign currency translation and loss from impairment of long-term investments, as well as their related tax impact, are important in helping investors to understand the Company’s current financial performance and future prospects and to compare business trends among different reporting periods on a consistent basis. The presentation of these additional measures should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP results or as being comparable to results reported or forecasted by other companies. The non-GAAP measures have been reconciled to GAAP measures in the attached financial statements.
