    Operating Highlights for the Third Fiscal Quarter Ended February 28, 2025

    Michael Yu, New Oriental's Executive Chairman, commented, "I am encouraged to see that our Q3 performance has been positively set with total net revenues, excluding revenues generated from East Buy private label products and livestreaming business, increasing by 21.2% year over year. Revenues from overseas test preparation and overseas study consulting businesses increased by approximately 7.1% and 21.4% year over year, respectively. In addition, the domestic test preparation business targeting adults and university students grew by approximately 17.0% year over year. Furthermore, our new educational business initiatives have maintained strong momentum this fiscal quarter, with revenue growth of 34.5% year over year. Among these initiatives, our non-academic tutoring courses were offered in around 60 cities, attracting approximately 408,000 student enrollments in this fiscal quarter. Simultaneously, our intelligent learning system and devices were adopted in around 60 cities, with approximately 309,000 active paid users in this fiscal quarter. By leveraging our strong educational resources, we are committed to pursuing a strategy centered on sustainable long-term development, emphasizing product quality and operational efficiency to foster sustainable growth and profitability in the long run."

    Chenggang Zhou, New Oriental's Chief Executive Officer, added, "In this fiscal quarter, we have continued to monitor our capacity expansion to ensure alignment with revenue growth and operating efficiency. At the same time, we have dedicated efforts to revamping our online-merge-offline teaching system and investing in the application of AI-related technologies within the education sector. As we integrate various new applications into our offline and online educational products, our product capabilities have been consistently enhanced. Additionally, we have developed numerous innovative technologies that support our teachers and staff in their daily work, resulting in improvements in operational efficiency and service satisfaction."

    Stephen Zhihui Yang, New Oriental's Executive President and Chief Financial Officer, commented, "To better reflect New Oriental's core educational businesses, the following operating margin numbers for this fiscal quarter exclude the financial results of East Buy's private label products and livestreaming business. Our GAAP operating margin for the quarter, excluding operating margin generated from East Buy private label products and livestreaming business, was 12.1%, compared to 14.0% in the same period of the prior fiscal year. Non-GAAP operating margin, excluding operating margin generated from East Buy private label products and livestreaming business for the quarter, was 13.3%, compared to 15.1% in the same period of the prior fiscal year. The slowdown in revenue growth within our overseas-related businesses and the investment in newly-integrated tourism-related business have led to the short-term impact on our operating margin this quarter. We anticipate the pressure on margins for educational businesses will ease in the upcoming quarter and the next fiscal year as we implement our cost reduction and efficiency enhancement initiatives across all business lines, alongside ongoing efforts to improve facility utilization. We remain committed to creating sustainable value for our customers and shareholders in the long term."

    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 extending the effective time of the Share Repurchase Program to May 31, 2025, and increasing the aggregate value of shares that the Company is authorized to repurchase from US$400 million to US$700 million. As of April 22, 2025, the Company had repurchased an aggregate of approximately 14.4 million ADSs for approximately US$695.5 million from the open market under this Share Repurchase Program.

    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, amortization of intangible assets resulting from business acquisitions, loss/(gain) from fair value change of investments, loss/(gain) from equity method investments, impairment of long-term investments and goodwill, gain on disposals of investments and others, as well as tax effects on non-GAAP adjustments; operating income excluding share-based compensation expenses, amortization of intangible assets resulting from business acquisitions, and impairment of goodwill; operating margin excluding share-based compensation expenses, amortization of intangible assets resulting from business acquisitions, and impairment of goodwill; and basic and diluted net income per ADS and per share excluding share-based compensation expenses, amortization of intangible assets resulting from business acquisitions, loss/(gain) from fair value change of investments, loss/(gain) from equity method investments, impairment of long-term investments and goodwill, gain on disposals of investments and others, as well as tax effects on non-GAAP adjustments. 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 from each non-GAAP measure certain items 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 from each non-GAAP measure certain items that have been and will continue to be for the foreseeable future a significant recurring expense in its 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.
