Commenting on the results, Rick Yan, President and Chief Executive Officer of 51job, said, “We closed 2015 on a very positive note due to solid execution of our strategic initiatives. The mandate to the sales force to focus on up-selling more sophisticated online offerings to our core employer base and to improve cross-selling of other value-added HR services saw clear progress throughout the year. We achieved greater, deeper customer engagements as evidenced by both higher average revenue per customer and overall revenues per salesperson. While we take steps to improve revenue growth, we have stayed disciplined in balancing investments and returns, delivering our 14th consecutive year of profitability to shareholders. Despite this period of economic transition in China, we are taking firm action to lay the groundwork for 51job’s future and to become a further diversified and complete HR services provider to enterprises in China.”
Fourth Quarter 2015 Unaudited Financial Results
Total revenues for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2015 were RMB610.8 million (US$94.3 million), an increase of 15.6% from RMB528.6 million for the same quarter in 2014.
Online recruitment services revenues for the fourth quarter of 2015 were RMB368.6 million (US$56.9 million), representing a 15.5% increase from RMB319.1 million for the same quarter of the prior year. The growth was driven by the realization of higher revenue per unique employer as well as an increase in the number of unique employers utilizing the Company’s online services. Although the pricing of like-for-like services was generally unchanged over the past year, average revenue per unique employer increased 12.1% in the fourth quarter of 2015 as compared with the same quarter in 2014 primarily due to improved up-selling efforts that resulted in the purchase of higher value services by customers. The number of unique employers increased 3.1% to 287,419 in the fourth quarter of 2015 compared with 278,846 in the same quarter of the prior year due to new customer additions.
Print advertising revenues for the fourth quarter of 2015 decreased 74.1% to RMB0.4 million (US$0.1 million) compared with RMB1.5 million for the same quarter in 2014. The estimated number of print advertising pages generated in the fourth quarter of 2015 was 3 pages compared with 16 pages in the same quarter in 2014. As of December 31, 2015, the Company has ceased all print advertising services.
Other human resource related revenues for the fourth quarter of 2015 increased 16.2% to RMB241.8 million (US$37.3 million) from RMB208.0 million in the same quarter of 2014. The increase was primarily due to greater usage and growth of business process outsourcing services and seasonal campus recruitment services.
Gross profit for the fourth quarter of 2015 increased 17.7% to RMB428.4 million (US$66.1 million) from RMB363.9 million for the same quarter of the prior year.

The Company recognized a loss from foreign currency translation of RMB21.1 million (US$3.3 million) in the fourth quarter of 2015 compared with a gain of RMB4.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2014 primarily due to the impact of the depreciation of the Renminbi against the US dollar on the US$172.5 million convertible senior notes issued and sold by the Company in April 2014.

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 financial measures of income before income tax expense, income tax expense, adjusted net income, adjusted net income attributable to 51job and adjusted earnings per share, which are adjusted from results based on GAAP to exclude share-based compensation expense, gain/loss from foreign currency translation, convertible senior notes issuance costs, change in fair value of convertible notes and change in fair value of zero-strike call options, as well as the related tax effect of these items. The Company believes excluding share-based compensation expense and its related tax effect 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 performance of the Company’s business operations and do not impact its cash earnings. The Company believes excluding gain/loss from foreign currency translation and its related tax effect from its non-GAAP financial measures is useful for its management and investors as such translation gain/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 convertible senior notes issuance costs and its related tax effect from its non-GAAP financial measures is useful for its management and investors as such costs are one-time, non-recurring and not attributable to the underlying performance of the Company’s business. The Company believes excluding changes in fair value of convertible notes and zero-strike call options, as well as their related tax effect, from its non-GAAP financial measures is useful for its management and investors as such changes are not indicative of the Company’s core business operations and will not result in cash settlement nor impact the Company’s cash earnings. 51job also believes these non-GAAP financial measures excluding share-based compensation expense, gain/loss from foreign currency translation, convertible senior notes issuance costs, change in fair value of convertible notes and change in fair value of zero-strike call options, as well as the related tax effect of these items, 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.

This includes the add-back of interest expense of RMB34,983 (US$5,400), change in fair value of convertible notes of RMB67,168 (US$10,369) and foreign currency translation loss of RMB64,839 (US$10,009) to the numerator of net income attributable to 51job for the year ended December 31, 2015. The potential conversion of the convertible senior notes was excluded in the computation of diluted earnings per share for the year ended December 31, 2014 because the effect would be anti-dilutive.

(2) Diluted earnings per share is calculated in accordance with the "if converted" method.

The weighted average maximum number of 4,035,672 potentially converted shares related to the notes was added to the denominator of diluted common shares for the three months ended December 31, 2014 and 2015.
(3) Diluted earnings per share is calculated in accordance with the "if converted" method.
