Financial Results for the First Quarter Ended March 31, 2012
 
Total net revenues for the first quarter ended March 31, 2012 were RMB337.3 million (US$53.6 million), representing an increase of 7.5% from RMB313.7 million for the corresponding period of 2011. The increase was primarily driven by rising property and casualty insurance commission rates that covered certain commissions that had been paid directly by insurance companies to certain sales agents in the first quarter of 2011, and the growth of claims adjusting segment, and partially offset by a decrease in life insurance premiums.
 
Total operating costs and expenseswere RMB298.7 million (US$47.4 million) for the first quarter of 2012, representing an increase of 32.8% from RMB225.0 million for the corresponding period of 2011.
 
Commissions and fees expenses were RMB213.5 million (US$33.9 million) for the first quarter of 2012, representing an increase of 39.1% from RMB153.5 million for the corresponding period of 2011. The increase was primarily due to increases in per policy acquisition cost and commission cost.
 
Selling expenses were RMB18.7 million (US$3.0 million) for the first quarter of 2012, representing an increase of 0.1% from RMB18.7 million for the corresponding period of 2011.
 
General and administrative expenseswere RMB66.5 million (US$10.6 million) for the first quarter of 2012, representing an increase of 25.9% from RMB52.8 million for the corresponding period of 2011. The increase was primarily due to the following:
 
(1) an increase in share-based compensation expense from a credit of RMB2.5 million for the first quarter of 2011, largely as a result of stock option forfeiture as various directors, officers and employees failed to meet certain key performance targets in 2010, to RMB4.1 million (US$0.7 million) for the first quarter of 2012, which mainly represented compensation expense for the option granted in March, 2012; and
 
(2) an increase of 14.4% in payroll expense from RMB22.3 million for the first quarter of 2011 to RMB25.5 million (US$4.1 million) for the first quarter of 2012 primarily due to pay raises for our administrative staff.
 
As a result of the foregoing factors, operating income was RMB38.7 million (US$6.1 million) for the first quarter of 2012, representing a decrease of 56.4% from RMB88.7 million for the corresponding period of 2011.

Interest income for the first quarter of 2012 was RMB22.5 million (US$3.6 million), representing an increase of 158.8% from RMB8.7 million for the corresponding period of 2011. The increase in interest income is due to (1) RMB5.2 million in interest charged on amounts due from related parties; and (2) increases in bank balance and bank interest rate as compared with the corresponding period of 2011.
 
Income tax expense for the first quarter of 2012 was RMB13.7 million (US$2.2 million), representing a decrease of 32.7% from RMB20.4 million for the corresponding period of 2011. The effective income tax rate applicable to the Company was 22.1% for the first quarter of 2012, compared to 20.7% for the corresponding period of 2011.
 
Net income from continuing operationswas RMB52.8 million (US$8.4 million) for the first quarter of 2012, representing a decrease of 34.1% from RMB80.1 million for the corresponding period of 2011.
 
Net income from discontinued operations for the first quarter of 2012 was nil compared to RMB157.3 million for the first quarter of 2011, mainly representing a disposal gain from the sale of Datong.
 
Net income attributable to the Company’s shareholders was RMB54.6 million (US$8.7 million) for the first quarter of 2012, representing a decrease of 77.3% from RMB240.8 million for the corresponding period of 2011.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures
 
In addition to the Company’s consolidated financial results under GAAP, the Company also provides non-GAAP financial measures, excluding (1) net income from discontinued operations for the first quarter 2011, primarily representing disposal gain from the sale of Datong, and (2) share-based compensation expenses. The Company believes that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing the Company’s performance and when planning and forecasting future periods. One limitation of using these non-GAAP financial measures is that these non-GAAP measures exclude the items that were significant in the first quarter of 2011.  Another is that items such as share-based compensation expenses have been, and will continue to be, a significant recurring factor in our business.
 
In light of the limitations, the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. We encourage investors and other interested persons to review our financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.  For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures, please see the tables captioned “Reconciliations of GAAP Financial Measures to Non-GAAP Financial Measures” set forth at the end of this release.
