    Operating Highlights for the Fourth Fiscal Quarter Ended May 31, 2024

    • The total number of schools and learning centers was 1,025 as of May 31, 2024, an increase of 114 and 277 compared to 911 as of February 29, 2024 and 748 as of May 31, 2023, respectively. The total number of schools was 81 as of May 31, 2024.

    Michael Yu, New Oriental's Executive Chairman, commented, "We are pleased to conclude the final quarter of fiscal year 2024 with a healthy top line growth of 32.1%. Our overseas test preparation and overseas study consulting businesses increased by approximately 17.7% and 17.3% year over year, respectively. In addition, the domestic test preparation business targeting adults and university students recorded a growth of approximately 16.4% year over year. Furthermore, our new educational business initiatives have all sustained strong momentum in this fiscal quarter, with a 50.3% revenue growth year over year. Among these new educational business initiatives, our non-academic tutoring courses were offered in around 60 cities, attracting approximately 875,000 student enrollments in this fiscal quarter. Simultaneously, our intelligent learning system and devices were adopted in around 60 cities, with approximately 188,000 active paid users in this fiscal quarter. On top of the strong growth, it is also encouraging to see the continuous improvement in customer retention rate. We will keep on our effort in enhancing quality of our product offerings and services. We firmly believe in the bright future of these new business initiatives and our strength in capturing the new market opportunity."

    Chenggang Zhou, New Oriental's Chief Executive Officer, added, "During this fiscal quarter, we accelerated our capacity expansion in some existing cities with greater growth potential and higher facility utilization, thereby increasing profitability. As of the end of this fiscal year, the total number of schools and learning centers increased to 1,025. As our key educational businesses delivered sustainable growth, we continued to allocate resources to our online-merge-offline teaching system and apply new technologies to enhance the quality of our educational and product offerings. Upholding the customer-centric strategy, East Buy Holding Limited ("East Buy") consistently provides customers with healthy, delicious, and cost-effective products. Since the launch of its first private label product in April 2022, East Buy has developed and launched over 400 SKUs within just two years, expanding its product line from agriculture, food and beverage products to a variety of product categories, among which some of its hot-selling products have achieved excellent performance in the market with strong competitiveness."

    Stephen Zhihui Yang, New Oriental's Executive President and Chief Financial Officer, commented, "Our GAAP operating margin for the quarter was 0.9% and Non-GAAP operating margin for the quarter was 3.2%. Our investment in accelerated capacity expansion and newly-integrated tourism-related business, as well as additional incentives to management and staff have led to the short-term impact on our operating margin in this quarter. We anticipate the pressure on margins for educational businesses will reduce in the next fiscal year as we continue to improve the utilization of facilities and operating efficiency. We will stick to our commitment on creating sustainable value for our customers and shareholders in the long term."

    Recent Development

    On November 21, 2023, as part of the Company's business line reorganization, the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary and variable interest entity (the "New Oriental Group Entities") entered into an agreement with East Buy and its subsidiaries and variable interest entity, pursuant to which the New Oriental Group Entities agreed to acquire East Buy's online education business at an aggregate consideration of RMB1.5 billion. The consideration was agreed by the parties after arm's length negotiations, with reference to an independent valuation. The acquisition was completed in this fiscal quarter. Upon completion, the online education business was deconsolidated from East Buy's consolidated financial statements and is now recorded by the Company under educational services.

    Share Repurchase

    The Company's board of directors approved a share repurchase program in July 2022, under which the Company is authorized to repurchase up to US$400 million of the Company's ADSs or common shares through the next twelve months. The Company's board of directors further approved to extend the effective time of the share repurchase program to May 31, 2025. As of July 30, 2024, the Company repurchased an aggregate of approximately 7.3 million ADSs for approximately US$296.1 million from the open market.

A number of factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement, including but not limited to the following: our ability to effectively and efficiently manage changes of our existing business and new business; our ability to execute our business strategies; uncertainties in relation to the interpretation and implementation of or proposed changes to, the PRC laws, regulations and policies regarding the private education industry; our ability to attract students without a significant increase in course fees; our ability to maintain and enhance our "New Oriental" brand; our ability to maintain consistent teaching quality throughout our school network, or service quality throughout our brand; our ability to achieve the benefits we expect from recent and future acquisitions; the outcome of ongoing, or any future, litigation or arbitration, including those relating to copyright and other intellectual property rights; competition in the private education sector and livestreaming e-commerce business in China; the continuing efforts of our senior management team and other key personnel, health epidemics and other outbreaks in China; and general economic conditions in China.

    About Non-GAAP Financial Measures

    To supplement New Oriental's consolidated financial results presented in accordance with GAAP, New Oriental uses the following measures defined as non-GAAP financial measures by the SEC: net income excluding share-based compensation expenses and gain (loss) from fair value change of investments, operating income excluding share-based compensation expenses, operating cost and expenses excluding share-based compensation expenses, general and administrative expenses excluding share-based compensation expenses, operating margin excluding share-based compensation expenses, and basic and diluted net income per ADS and per share excluding share-based compensation expenses and gain (loss) from fair value change of investments. 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. For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures, please see the tables captioned "Reconciliations of non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP measures" set forth at the end of this release.

    New Oriental believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding its performance and liquidity by excluding share-based compensation expenses and gain (loss) from fair value change of investments that may not be indicative of its operating performance from a cash perspective. New Oriental believes that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing its performance and when planning and forecasting future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate management's internal comparisons to New Oriental's historical performance and liquidity. New Oriental believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors in allowing for greater transparency with respect to supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision making. A limitation of using these non-GAAP measures is that they exclude share-based compensation charge and gain (loss) from fair value change of investments that has been and will continue to be for the foreseeable future a significant recurring expense in our business. Management compensates for these limitations by providing specific information regarding the GAAP amounts excluded from each non-GAAP measure. The accompanying tables have more details on the reconciliations between GAAP financial measures that are most directly comparable to non-GAAP financial measures.
