Nine Months Ended September 30, 2014 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2013
Net Revenue. Our net revenue increased by 89.1% from US$106.6 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2013 to US$201.5 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2014. This increase was largely attributable to an increase in revenue from our film distribution segment.
Segment revenue
Segment revenue from our film distribution segment increased by 195.3% from US$48.9 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2013 to US$144.5 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2014. The increase was primarily attributable to the success of our film slate in the nine months ended September 30, 2014.
Segment revenue from our film investment and production segment increased by 27.0% from US$37.6 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2013 to US$47.8 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2014. The increase was mainly due to investment and production of more films in the nine months ended September 30, 2014.
Segment revenue from our movie theater segment increased by 27.8% from US$46.1 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2013 to US$58.9 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2014. The increase was primarily due to the increase in the number of theaters and screens we operated as a result of our strategic expansion efforts and the greenfield theaters gradually maturing.
Segment revenue from our talent agency segment increased by 11.3% from US$0.49 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2013 to US$0.54 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2014.
Cost of Revenue. Our cost of revenue increased by 100.2% from US$57.0 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2013 to US$114.1 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2014, aligned with the increase in revenue.
Segment cost of revenue
Segment cost of revenue from our film distribution segment increased by 179.8% from US$34.8 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2013 to US$97.3 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2014, which was mainly due to the increase of costs associated with the success of our film slate.
Segment cost of revenue from our film investment and production segment increased by 46.0% from US$29.1 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2013 to US$42.6 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2014. This increase was primarily due to the acceleration of amortization, impairment and one-time write-off of production costs in the nine months ended September 30, 2014.
Segment cost of revenue from our movie theater segment increased by 24.5% from US$19.6 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2013 to US$24.4 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2014, which is in line with our expanded theater operations and the greenfield theaters gradually maturing.
Segment cost of revenue from our talent agency segment increased from nil in the nine months ended September 30, 2013 to US$0.03 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2014.
Film Participation Expenses. Our film participation expenses were negative participation expenses of US$0.5 million and positive participation expenses of US$11.9 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2014, respectively. The negative film participation expenses in the nine months ended September 30, 2013 were mainly due to a certain film with negative film participation expenses of US$0.7 million, which was caused by decreased estimates of the ultimate overseas revenue based on the economic performance and public acceptance of a certain film in overseas markets. The increase of US$12.4 million in film participation expenses from the nine months ended September 30, 2013 to the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was primarily caused by worldwide net income of the films invested by Wuhu Bona Jinyu Film Investment Center, L.P. (the “Bona Film Investment Fund”), which was launched in September 2013.
Equity in Earnings of Equity Method Investments, Net of Tax. We recorded equity in earnings of equity method investments of US$3.3 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. Equity in earnings of equity method investments for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was primarily attributable to our share of earnings in the Bona Film Investment Fund. Because the operations of the Bona Film Investment Fund are integral to our film investment and production business, we included the equity in earnings of equity method investments within the related segment profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. We recorded equity in earnings of equity method investments of negative US$0.01 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 as non-operating income.
Segment Profit
Segment profit from our film distribution segment increased by 233.1% from US$14.2 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2013 to US$47.3 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2014, which was mainly due to the success of our film slate in the nine months ended September 30, 2014. Segment profit margin increased over the same period from 29.0% to 32.7%.
Segment profit from our film investment and production segment decreased by 136.9% from a profit of US$9.0 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2013 to a loss of US$3.3 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2014, which was mainly due to the acceleration of amortization, impairment and one-time write-off of production costs in the nine months ended September 30, 2014. Segment profit margin decreased over the same period from a profit margin of 23.9% to a negative margin of 7.0%.
Segment profit from our movie theater segment increased by 30.2% from US$26.5 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2013 to US$34.5 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2014, which was mainly due to our expanded theater operations and the greenfield theaters gradually maturing. Segment profit margin increased over the same period from 57.5% to 58.5%.
Segment profit from our talent agency segment remained relatively stable at US$0.5 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and the nine months ended September 30, 2014. Segment profit margin decreased from 100.0% in the nine months ended September 30, 2013 to 95.4% in the nine months ended September 30, 2014.
Other Operating Expenses. Our other operating expenses increased by 40.9% from US$46.5 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2013 to US$65.5 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2014.
· Selling and Marketing Expenses. Our selling and marketing expenses increased 100.7% from US$10.2 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2013 to US$20.5 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2014, which was primarily due to the increase of selling and marketing expenses incurred for the promotion and advertising of the Company’s distributed films in the nine months ended September 30, 2014.
· General and Administrative Expenses. Our general and administrative expenses increased by 24.0% from US$36.3 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2013 to US$45.0 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2014, which was primarily due to the increase in general and administrative expenses relating to expanding our movie theater segment and an increase in share-based compensation expenses.
Operating Income. As a result of the foregoing, our operating income increased 189.2% from US$5.3 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2013 to US$15.2 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2014.
Other Income. We generated other income of US$0.2 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2014, respectively.
Tax Provision. We made provisions for income taxes of US$1.0 million and US$7.0 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2014, respectively. The increase in the income tax provision in the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was primarily due to a non-deductible share based compensation expense granted to an officer in April 2014 and the increase in operating income of Zhejiang Bona Film and Television Production Co., Ltd. and Tianjin Bona Culture Media Co., Ltd., which are subject to a tax rate of 25%.
Net Income. As a result of the foregoing, we generated net income of US$4.2 million and US$7.6 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2014, respectively. Excluding share-based compensation expenses, our non-GAAP net income was US$7.0 million and US$14.8 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2014, respectively. Further excluding interest, taxes and depreciation and amortization, our EBITDA, non-GAAP was US$13.5 million and US$26.1 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2014, respectively. As a supplement to net income, we use a non-GAAP financial measure of net income that is adjusted from results based on U.S. GAAP to exclude share-based compensation expenses, and adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP, excludes interest, taxes and depreciation and amortization. This non-GAAP measure is provided as additional information to help our investors compare business trends among different reporting periods on a consistent basis and to enhance investors’ overall understanding of our current financial performance and prospects for the future. This non-GAAP financial measure should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to U.S. GAAP results. In addition, our definition of non-GAAP net income may be different from the definitions used by other companies, and therefore comparability may be limited.
Net Loss Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests. Net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests represents noncontrolling shareholders’ share of our net income (loss) based on their equity interests in Cinema Popular Limited, Distribution Workshop (BVI) Ltd., Distribution Workshop (HK) Ltd., Bona Guoqiang Tianjin Film and Culture Media Co., Ltd., Shanghai Bona Yinxing Cinema Development Co., Ltd., Changsha Mango Bona Cineplex Management Co., Ltd., Tianjin Nongken Bona Film Investment Co., Ltd., Sanya Beauty Crown Bona International Cinema Co., Ltd.. Net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests was US$1.1 million and US$0.4 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2014, respectively.
Net Income Attributable to Our Company. As a result of the foregoing, net income attributable to our company amounted to US$5.2 million and US$8.0 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2014, respectively.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of September 30, 2014, we had cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash totaling US$84.7 million. Our cash and cash equivalents generally consist of bank deposits and liquid investments with maturities of three months or less.
We generally fund our cash needs through a combination of (i) borrowings, which are typically provided by banks on a film-by-film basis and repaid on a first priority basis with the box office receipts from such films; (ii) film participations, which consist of the sale of a share of a film’s worldwide revenue to a third party and are typically repaid with such film’s worldwide revenue; and (iii) cash from our operations, which primarily consist of cash generated by films released in prior periods.
We believe that our cash and cash equivalents, our anticipated cash flow from operations, our credit facilities and the net proceeds we received from our initial public offering will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash needs for the next 12 months. For the next 12 to 24 months, we expect to meet our anticipated cash needs through bank loans and from funds provided by films in which we are the lead investor and from which we receive film participation fees from other investors, our film distribution business and our movie theater business.
Our borrowings as of September 30, 2014 amounted to US$147.1 million.

We had an increase in account receivables of US$77.7 million, increase in distribution rights and production costs of US$109.3 million, which was partly offset by an increase in accounts payables of US$19.6 million, an increase in accrued expenses and other current liabilities of US$8.4 million, and an increase of film participation financing liabilities of US$7.0 million.
Our net cash used in investing activities amounted to US$46.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. This was primarily due to purchase of property and equipment of US$13.9 million, which was primarily attributable to purchases of leasehold improvements and equipment such as computers and operating equipment, and purchase of equity method investment of US$12.0 million, and an increase in deposit of restricted cash of US$25.7 million.
We had net cash provided by financing activities of US$105.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, which was primarily due to (i) proceeds from bank borrowings of US$96.1 million for our film production, and (ii) proceeds from participants of US$51.1 million. This was partly offset by (i) repayments of bank borrowings of US$34.6 million, and (ii) repayment of principal to related party participant of US$9.8 million.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - continued
FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2014
(In thousands of U.S. dollars, except share and per share data or otherwise noted)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the financial information of Bona Film Group Limited (the “Company”), its subsidiaries, variable interest entities (the “VIEs”) and VIEs’ subsidiaries (collectively, the “Group”). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Security and Exchange Commission and U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial reporting. The results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results of the full years.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements, accounting policies and financial notes thereto included in the Group’s audited consolidated financial statements for each of the three years ended December 31, 2013. In the opinion of the management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments), which are necessary for a fair presentation of financial results for the interim periods presented. The Group believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the same accounting policies as used in the preparation of the Group’s consolidated financial statements for each of the three years ended December 31, 2013.
The financial information as of December 31, 2013 presented in the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements is derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013.
The Company uses the United States (“U.S.”) dollar as its reporting currency and functional currency. The financial records of the Company’s People’s Republic of China (“PRC”) subsidiaries, VIEs and VIEs’ subsidiaries are maintained in Renminbi (“RMB”), their functional currency and the currency of the PRC. The financial records of the Company’s subsidiaries and VIEs established in Hong Kong are maintained in their local currencies, Hong Kong Dollar. Their balance sheets are translated into U.S. dollars based on the exchange rate as of the balance sheet date. Their statements of operations are translated using an average exchange rate for the period. Translation adjustments are reflected in accumulated other comprehensive income in equity.
The RMB is not freely convertible into U.S. dollars or other currencies. All foreign exchange transactions involving RMB must take place through the People’s Bank of China or other institutions authorized to buy and sell foreign currencies. The exchange rates adopted for foreign exchange transactions involving RMB are the rates of exchange quoted by the People’s Bank of China.
No assets of the Company’s consolidated VIEs are collateral for such VIEs’ obligations. There are no restrictions on the use of the VIEs’ assets to settle the Company’s obligations. As of December 31, 2013 and September 30, 2014, respectively, there were $166,078 and $318,771 of liabilities of the Company’s consolidated VIEs for which creditors (or beneficial interest holders) did not have recourse to the general credit of the Company or its subsidiaries.

2. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In June 2014, the FASB issued an accounting standards update relating to the accounting for certain share-based awards. The accounting update states that, when the terms of an award provide that a performance target could be achieved after the requisite service period, the performance target should be treated as a performance condition that affects vesting and should not be reflected in the grant-date fair value. Companies are permitted to apply the guidance either prospectively to all awards granted or modified after the effective date or retrospectively to awards outstanding as of the beginning of the earliest annual period presented. The guidance is effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning January 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted the new guidance upon issuance of the accounting standards update, which did not have an impact on its consolidated financial statements as the Company’s existing accounting policy was already consistent with this guidance.
In May 2014, the FASB issued an accounting standards update to provide companies with a single model for use in accounting for revenue from contracts with customers. Once it becomes effective, the new guidance will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP, including industry-specific guidance. The core principle of the model is to recognize revenue when control of goods or services transfers to the customer and in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services that have transferred. Under current U.S. GAAP, the Company recognizes revenue when the risks and rewards of ownership transfer to the customer. In addition, the guidance requires improved disclosures to help users of financial statements better understand the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue that is recognized and the related cash flows. The guidance is effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning January 1, 2017, including interim periods within that fiscal year. Early adoption is not permitted. Companies are permitted to either apply the guidance retrospectively to all prior periods presented or, alternatively, apply the guidance in the year of adoption with the cumulative effect recognized at the date of initial application (referred to as the modified retrospective approach). The Company is in the process of determining the method of adoption, as well as evaluating the impact that the new standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.

2. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS- continued
In July 2013, the FASB issued an accounting standards update relating to the presentation of unrecognized tax benefits. The accounting update requires companies to present a deferred tax asset net of related unrecognized tax benefits if there is a net operating loss or other tax carryforwards that would apply in settlement of the uncertain tax position. To the extent that an uncertain tax position would not be settled through a reduction of a net operating loss or other tax carryforwards, the unrecognized tax benefit will be presented as a liability. The guidance is effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning January 1, 2014, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted the new guidance effective January 1, 2014. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The portion of the costs of the completed films that are expected to be amortized during the twelve months after September 30, 2014 is $1,196, and the Group expects to amortize 100% of such costs within three years from September 30, 2014.
The Group evaluates its distribution rights on a title-by-title basis to determine whether the unamortized capitalized costs of any titles have a fair value that is less than its carrying value at least annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the distribution rights may be impaired. The Group determined the unamortized distribution rights as of September 30, 2013 were impaired by $982, for which no amortization expenses were recorded since no revenue had been generated by the end of September 30, 2013. The Group determined the unamortized distribution rights as of September 30, 2014 were impaired by $194, due to the lower-than-expected revenue performance of certain film. Key assumptions used in the fair value measurement consisted of a discount rate of 15% and estimated remaining cash flows over a period of 10 years from a title’s initial release. A change in the discount rate of 1.0% would change the impairment loss measurement by $11 in the nine months ended September 30, 2014.

The portion of the costs of the completed films that are expected to be amortized during the twelve months after September 30, 2014 is $10,640, and the Group expects to amortize 86% of such costs within three years from September 30, 2014.
The Group evaluates its production costs on a title-by-title basis to determine whether the unamortized capitalized costs of any titles have a fair value that is less than its carrying value at least annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the production costs may be impaired. As a result of lower-than-expected revenue performance of certain films and TV series, the Group determined the unamortized production costs were impaired by $1,171 and $3,402 as of September 30, 2013 and 2014, respectively, including $1,861 of the full impairment of an unreleased film as of September 30, 2014, as the film was not been set for production within three years from the time of the first capitalized transaction. Key assumptions used in the fair value measurement were discount rates ranging from 15% to 16% and estimated cash flows over a period of 10 years from a title’s initial release. A change in the discount rate of 1.0% would change the impairment loss measurement by $72 in the nine months ended September 30, 2014.

7. COST METHOD INVESTMENTS
In April 2008, the Group invested $29 for 16.67% of equity interest in Wuhan Lianzhong Digital Film Technology Co., Ltd. (“Wuhan Lianzhong”), a company established in the PRC that is mainly engaged in digital film production and distribution.
In October 2011, the Group invested $63 for 10% of equity interest in Zhongda Helian Marketing Consulting Co., Ltd. (“Zhongda Helian”), a company established in the PRC that is mainly engaged in economic and trade advisory services. In June 2014, the Group received $64 cash dividend income from Zhongda Helian.
In January 2012, the Group invested $1,200 for 15.67% of equity interest in China Lion Entertainment Limited (“China Lion”), a company established in the United States that is mainly engaged in film distribution in North America. In October 2013, China Lion increased its share capital, and the Group invested additional $180, resulting in a 15% of equity interests in China Lion.
These investments are accounted for using the cost method of accounting as the Group has no significant influence over the operation of Wuhan Lianzhong, Zhongda Helian or China Lion. There was no impairment of the cost method investment recognized for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and September 30, 2014, respectively.

(i) In July 2013, the Group, together with two other investors, established Wuhu Bona, a limited liability company, and the Group holds 70% equity interest in Wuhu Bona. As a 70% equity owner of Wuhu Bona, the Group is entitled to nominate three out of five board members of Wuhu Bona. However, any significant board resolutions related to operating and financing activities of Wuhu Bona need two-third board members’ approval. The Group concludes that it does not have control over Wuhu Bona, and has accounted for the investment in Wuhu Bona using the equity method of accounting.
In September 2013, the Group launched Bona Film Investment Fund, a RMB1.0 billion fund that is expected to finance the development and production of the Group’s film and television projects for the next two years. The Group holds approximately 29.9% of the equity interest amounted to RMB300.0 million in Bona Film Investment Fund, representing the commitment of investment rights in current and future projects. Wuhu Bona invested RMB1.0 million representing a 0.1% equity interest in Bona Film Investment Fund. Wuhu Bona is the only general partner of Bona Film Investment Fund, which has the exclusive rights of operating Bona Film Investment Fund. Therefore, Wuhu Bona has consolidated the Bona Film Investment Fund.
As of September 30, 2014, the Group, Wuhu Bona and outside investors invested Bona Film Investment Fund’s equity of RMB197.0 million, RMB0.66 million and RMB462.4 million, respectively, in which RMB449.5 million was invested to the development and production of films and TV projects of the Group. Bona Film Investment Fund received RMB92.0 million investment income from the Group and distributed RMB92.0 million to all investors, among which, the Group received a RMB28.0 million profit distribution and accounted for this as a deduction of its equity method investment.

8. EQUITY METHOD INVESTMENTS - continued
(ii) In August 2013, the Group, together with another investor, established Sanya Cinema to operate a cinema in Sanya City in the PRC, in which the Group holds 51% equity interests. As the significant operating and financing activities of Sanya Cinema needed all shareholders’ approvals at that time, the Group concluded that it did not maintain control over Sanya Cinema, and accounted for this investment using equity method of accounting. In March 2014, Sanya Cinema revised its Article of Association. According to the revised Article of Association (‘‘A&A’’), the shareholders’ resolutions related to significant operating and financing activities of Sanya Cinema need over 50% shareholders’ approval. When Sanya Cinema completed the registration of revised A&A with the local Administration for Industry & Commerce on March 31, 2014, the Group achieved control over Sanya Cinema and accordingly consolidated the financial statements of Sanya Cinema.

12. BANK BORROWINGS - continued
(i) The Group agreed to certain financial covenants (among other covenants), including to maintain minimum cash assets of $5.0 million at all times during the term of the loan, as well as to maintain a ratio of maximum total funded debt to earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (the “EBITDA ratio”) no greater than 3.8:1 (the “EBITDA Ratio Covenant”) and a ratio of total liabilities to tangible net worth of no more than 2:1, in each case calculated using average quarterly figures based on the consolidated balance sheets of the Group for the most recent four quarters. In August 2013, East West Bank modified the EBITDA ratio as not to exceed 4.75:1 for the second quarter of 2013, 4.25:1 for the third quarter of 2013 and 3.0:1 for the fourth quarter of 2013 and beyond. Any failure to comply with such financial covenants (among other things) would constitute an event of default under the agreement. If the Group fails to timely remedy a curable event of default within the applicable cure period or obtain a waiver, the bank would have the right to accelerate the loan repayment and charge a default rate of interest. The Group was in compliance with all the covenants for the first, second and third quarters of 2014. The Group does not expect any default on the covenants within the 12 months following September 30, 2014. As a result, the loans were classified as long-term liability as of September 30, 2014.
Interest expenses accrued for loans were $1,603 and $4,000 for nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2014, respectively, in which $580 and $2,802 were capitalized into production costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2014, respectively.
The Group expects to repay the borrowings of $1,050, $122,349, $18,328, nil and nil for the three months ending December 31, 2014, the years ending December 31, 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018, respectively.

13. �� OTHER BORROWINGS
The Group entered into two film financing agreements with other investors in March 2012 and May 2012. Under the agreements, the investors paid a total amount of $3,001 (equivalent of RMB19 million) to invest in the production of a TV series. The Group guaranteed a return of 15% on the investment. One of the borrowings, at principle amount of $1,579 (equivalent of RMB10 million) and the related interest was repaid in May 2013. The remaining borrowing, a principle amount of $1,422 (equivalent of RMB9 million) and the related interest was repaid in February 2014.
In August 2013, the Group entered into a film financing agreement with a third party investor. Under the agreement, the investor invested $2,314 (equivalent of RMB14.2 million) in September 2013 and invested $256 (equivalent of RMB1.58 million) in August 2014. The Group guaranteed a return of 8% on the investment. The loan and related interest will be due in January 2015.
In April 2014, the Group entered into a film financing agreement with a third party investor. Under the agreement, the investor invested $2,456 (equivalent of RMB15.3 million) as the first payment and the Group guaranteed a return of 10% on the investment. The loan and related interest will be due in June 2015.

14. FILM PARTICIPATION FINANCING LIABILITIES
Film participation financing liabilities with unrelated parties
In the film production financing arrangements, the initial participation amounts provided by unrelated party investors for a fixed percentage of the film’s worldwide net income of the invested film from the initial exhibition of the film in the mainland China are reflected as a film participation financing liability. A film’s worldwide net income is defined as the film’s distribution revenue, less promotion and print costs, and distribution fees. The difference between the ultimate film participation expenses expected to be paid to participants and the amount provided by participants is amortized as a charge to or a reduction of film participation expenses under the individual-film-forecast-computation method. Film participation financing liabilities with unrelated parties were $7,117 and $15,006, respectively, as of December 31, 2013 and September 30, 2014.
Film participation financing liabilities with a related party
Film participation financing liabilities with a related party represent amounts received from Bona Film Investment Fund to finance the development and production of film and TV projects of the Group over the next year. Pursuant to a cooperation framework agreement entered in September 2013 by and among Bona Film Investment Fund, the Group and other investors, Bona Film Investment Fund authorizes the Group to invest its capital in all types of film and television production projects. The Group is to invest in these projects upon receipt of payment from Bona Film Investment Fund, and be in charge of the filming, production and distribution of these projects. The Group solely owns the perpetual copyright and all the intellectual property of these projects globally. During the term of Bona Film Investment Fund, proceeds from a project globally, as calculated based on a percentage of Bona Film Investment Fund’s investment over total investments, belong to Bona Film Investment Fund. Film participation financing liabilities with a related party were $54,380 and $94,434, respectively, as of December 31, 2013 and September 30, 2014.
15. INCOME TAXES
The Group’s effective income tax rate (“ETR”) was 48% for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to 20% for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The ETR differed from the statutory tax rate of 25% and the increase in the effective income tax rate over the prior year’s comparable period and the statutory rate is primarily due to the non-deductible share-based compensation expenses granted to an officer in April 2014.
16. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The Group measured its distribution rights and production costs at fair value on a nonrecurring basis when it wrote down the carrying amounts of the distribution rights and production costs to their fair value as a result of the impairment assessments (Note 5 and Note 6). The fair value was determined using models with significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 inputs), primarily the management projection of the future cash flows and the discount rate.

20. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Group is a party in potential claims arising in the ordinary course of business. As of September 30, 2014, the Group was a party to eleven legal proceedings in the PRC as the defendant or co-defendant, nine of which had been concluded. Of these concluded legal proceedings, the Group lost two and seven were withdrawn. The settlements paid in respect of each of the nine concluded legal proceedings, which ranged from nil to approximately RMB0.3 million, had been either paid or accrued for as of September 30, 2014. Based on the information currently available, the Group was able to estimate the outcome of one pending lawsuit, which has total claim against the Group of RMB7.6 million. The Group is unable to reasonably estimate the possible losses related to the claim of RMB4.6 million associated with the lawsuit, and the Group accrued the remaining liabilities of RMB3.0 million as of September 30, 2014. For the other pending lawsuit, which has total claim against the Group of RMB2.6 million, the Group is unable to reasonably estimate the outcome of the lawsuits and also the possible losses. Therefore, no accrual for contingency loss was recorded as of September 30, 2014.

22. SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Group’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is the Chief Executive Officer who reviews the results of four operating segments when making decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance. The segments are film distribution, film investment and production, movie theater, and talent agency.
The film distribution segment generates revenue from external customers. Its revenue comprises the Group’s share of movie theater box office sales for the Group’s distribution services and, to the extent the Group has distribution rights outside the PRC, the revenue the Group derives from those arrangements.
Its cost of revenue includes:
(1) the amortization of the cost of acquiring the distribution right and the participation right; and
(2) the amount that the Group remits to the producers when they are entitled to share the box office sales with the Group based on the distribution arrangement. In the case where the Group produces the film, this amount includes any amount paid by the distribution entities to producing entities within the Group.
The film investment and production segment generates revenue both from external customers and, through inter-segment transactions, from the Group’s own distribution entities.
The film investment and production segment generates revenue from external customers where the Group invests in a film but does not act as the principal distributor. For films in which the Group acquires all or part of the copyright, these include revenue from the sale of distribution rights and licensing fees to third-party distributors. For films in which the Group does not acquire any copyright, these include revenue from the Group’s share of the net profit from distribution agreements with third-party producers.

22. SEGMENT INFORMATION - continued
Revenue from internal customers comprises revenue received from the distribution entities within the Group who distributes the film.
Its cost of revenue includes the amortization of production costs.
The movie theater segment generates admissions and concession revenue at the box offices from external customers, and other revenue which primarily consist of screen advertising revenue. Its cost of revenue mainly includes film rental costs.
The talent agency segment generates revenue from external customers for its talent agency related business.
The profitability measure employed by the Group and its CODM for making decisions about allocating resources to segments and assessing segment performance is gross profit less film participation expenses. Segments follow the same accounting policies as those described in Note 2 included in the Group’s Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2013.
The Group’s CODM does not assign assets to these segments. Currently, it is not practical to show assets by reportable segments.
