Business Outlook for Third Quarter 2010
Prior to the start of the third quarter of 2010, the core business of the Company consisted of the LCD display network, poster frame network and in-store network. The non-core business consisted of the traditional outdoor billboard network, Internet advertising services and the movie theater network. From the third quarter of 2010, the Company re-categorized the movie theater network from non-core business to core business and grouped it into the LCD display network when reporting. Following the re-categorization, the core business of the Company consists of the LCD display network, movie theater network, poster frame network and In-store network, and the non-core business of the Company consists of the traditional outdoor billboard network only (the Internet advertising services have been sold in the early part of third quarter of 2010).
On that basis, the Company provides the following guidance with respect to the third quarter ending September 30, 2010:
The net revenues for the core business (inclusive of movie theater network of $5 million for the third quarter of 2010 as compared to the net revenues of $3.5 million for the second quarter of 2010) are expected to be in the range of $120 -$123 million, the mid-point of which would represent quarter-on-quarter growth of 8% and year-on-year growth of 37%, or quarter-on-quarter growth of 7% and year-on-year growth of 36% excluding movie theater network’s assumed contribution . Net revenues for the non-core business (contribution through to the date of disposal of Internet advertising services of approximately $10 million) are expected to be in the range of $20 — $22 million. The Company’s non-GAAP net income is expected to be in the range of $48-$49 million. The Company estimates the weighted average fully diluted ADS count for the quarter at 147 million, assuming no further share repurchases during the quarter.
In the second quarter of 2010, the Company completed the application process for HNTE for one of the Company’s subsidiaries. The subsidiary has commenced the public announcement in the second quarter. As of second quarter’s press release date, the subsidiary successfully passed the 15 announcement days, and is currently waiting to receive the certificate. The Company believes the subsidiary will obtain the certificate in 2010 and thus be eligible for a tax holiday (i.e. two-year tax exemption followed by a three-year 50% tax reduction). With the application of 0% tax rate to that particular subsidiary effective from January 1, 2010, the expected effective tax rate for fiscal year 2010 for the Company will be 15%-16%.
The Company incurred cumulative earn-out payments of $22.5 million in the first half of 2010. Based on the existing business outlook, the Company expects earn-out payments remaining in the second half of 2010 to be no more than $15 million versus our previous guidance of cumulatively no more than $40 million for 2010.
Announced Share Repurchase Program
On August 3, 2010, Focus Media announced its intention to increase the size of its previously announced share repurchase program from $200 million to $300 million and to extend the termination date of the repurchase plan to June 2011 from February 2011.As of August 23, 2010, the Company has cumulatively spent $36.7 million in share repurchases.
Foreign Currency Translation
Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate as of June 30, 2010, which was $1 to RMB 6.7909. Equity accounts are translated at historical exchange rates and revenues, expenses, gains and losses are translated using the average rate for the second quarter of 2010, which was $1 to RMB 6.8335. Translation adjustments are reported as cumulative translation adjustments and are shown as a separate component of other comprehensive income in the statement of equity and comprehensive income (loss).
USE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
In addition to Focus Media’s consolidated financial results under GAAP, the Company also provides non-GAAP financial measures, including non-GAAP gross profit (cumulatively and by segment), non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP operating profit (loss), non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP fully-diluted EPS, all excluding share-based compensation expenses, amortization of acquired intangible assets, loss from disposal of previously acquired subsidiaries and equity affiliates, impairment charges of long-lived assets and goodwill, write-off of receivables from ex-shareholders of disposed business and charges from expensing IPO expenditures as a result of termination of the IPO process of Allyes. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to better assess operating performance of the Company. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with another method for assessing Focus Media’s operating results in a manner that is focused on the performance of its ongoing operations. Readers are cautioned not to view non-GAAP results on a stand-alone basis or as a substitute for results under GAAP, or as being comparable to results reported or forecasted by other companies, and should refer to the reconciliation of GAAP results with non-GAAP results in the attached financial information. The Company believes that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing the performance of Focus Media and when planning and forecasting future periods. The Company computes its non-GAAP financial measures using the same consistent method from quarter to quarter. The accompanying tables have more details on the GAAP financial measures that are most directly comparable to non-GAAP financial measures and the related reconciliation between these financial measures.
