Ms. Jingbo Wang, Co-founder, Chairwoman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "The strong performance in the fourth quarter and full year 2013 reflects the steady expansion in business scale and improvement in overall management efficiency. We continued to enhance our asset management capability while growing our wealth management business. Looking forward, Noah will focus on further diversifying product mix to provide comprehensive financial services to high net worth individual and institutional clients, which are expected to strengthen our competitive advantage." Ms. Wang continued, "With effective strategy and necessary resources, we believe we are well-positioned to expand our business in 2014 to secure long-term sustainable growth."

Ms. Theresa Teng, Chief Financial Officer, said, "In 2013, both transaction value and net revenues grew significantly while operating efficiency and profitability also improved year over year. As a result, our full year non-GAAP net income exceeded our forecast. We are confident that our business will continue to contribute growth and profitability in 2014."

FOURTH QUARTER 2013 AND FULL YEAR 2013 FINANCIAL RESULTS

Net Revenues

Net revenues for the fourth quarter of 2013 were US$45.4 million, an 81.1% increase from the corresponding period in 2012, due to increases in both one-time commission revenues and recurring service fees for the fourth quarter of 2013.

Net revenues from one-time commissions for the fourth quarter of 2013 were US$18.6 million, a 60.6% increase from the corresponding period in 2012. The year-over-year increase for the fourth quarter of 2013 was primarily due to an increase in transaction value, despite a decrease in average commission rate.

Net revenues from recurring service fees for the fourth quarter of 2013 were US$25.4 million, a 93.2% increase from the corresponding period in 2012. The year-over-year increase for the fourth quarter of 2013 was mainly due to the cumulative effect of private equity funds previously distributed by the Company and an increase in assets under management by the Company since the second half of 2012.

Net revenues for the full year 2013 were US$163.8 million, an 88.9% increase from 2012, due to increases of US$44.0 million in net revenues from recurring service fees and US$28.3 million in net revenues from one-time commissions for the full year 2013.

Net revenues from one-time commissions for the full year 2013 were US$74.5 million, a 61.3% increase from 2012. The year-over-year increase for the full year 2013 was primarily due to an increase in transaction value, despite a decrease in average commission rate.

Net revenues from recurring service fees for the full year 2013 were US$83.6 million, a 111.1% increase from 2012. The year-over-year increase for the full year 2013 was mainly due to the cumulative effect of private equity funds previously distributed by the Company and an increase in assets under management by the Company since the second half of 2012.

Operating margin for the fourth quarter of 2013 was 29.2%, as compared to 27.0% for the corresponding period in 2012. Operating margin for the full year 2013 was 37.0%, as compared to 29.8% for 2012. The year-over-year increases for the fourth quarter of 2013 and the full year 2013 were driven by growth of net revenues exceeding the growth of operating cost and expenses.

Operating cost and expenses for the fourth quarter of 2013, including cost of revenues, selling expenses, G&A expenses and other operating income, were US$32.2 million, a 75.6% increase from the corresponding period in 2012. Operating cost and expenses for the full year 2013 were US$103.2 million, a 69.6% increase from 2012. The year-over-year increases for the fourth quarter of 2013 and the full year 2013 were primarily due to the Company's expansion.

Cost of revenues for the full year 2013 totaled US$34.2 million, a 90.1% increase from 2012. The year-over-year increases for the fourth quarter of 2013 and the full year 2013 were primarily due to increases in compensation expenses paid to relationship managers as a result of the increase in transaction value.

Selling expenses for the fourth quarter of 2013 were US$11.3 million, a 47.8% increase from the corresponding period in 2012. The year-over-year increase for the fourth quarter of 2013 was primarily due to increases in personnel expenses, professional consulting fees and recruiting expenses. Selling expenses as a percentage of net revenues for the fourth quarter of 2013 was 24.8%, as compared to 30.4% for the corresponding period in 2012. Selling expenses for the full year 2013 were US$38.2 million, a 39.7% increase from 2012. The year-over-year increase for the full year 2013 was primarily due to increases in personnel expenses, professional consulting fees and share-based compensation expenses as we strengthened our selling and marketing functions.                     

G&A expenses for the fourth quarter of 2013 were US$10.9 million, a 76.2% increase from the corresponding period in 2012. The year-over-year increase for the fourth quarter of 2013 was primarily due to increases in professional fees, personnel expenses and depreciation expenses for property and equipment.

G&A expenses for the full year 2013 were US$36.2 million, an 82.3% increase from 2012.

Other operating income for the full year 2013 was US$5.3 million, as compared to US$4.3 million for 2012.

Income tax expenses for the fourth quarter of 2013 were US$2.0 million, a 27.3% decrease from the corresponding period in 2012. The year-over-year decrease for the fourth quarter of 2013 was primarily due to the utilization of net operating loss carried from prior years. Income tax expenses for the full year 2013 were US$16.3 million, an 81.1% increase from US$9.0 million in 2012. The increase for the full year 2013 was primarily due to an increase in taxable income.

DISCUSSION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES:

In addition to disclosing financial results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company's earnings release contains non-GAAP financial measures that exclude the effects of all forms of share-based compensation. The reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the nearest GAAP measures is set forth in the table captioned "Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Results" below.

The non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by the Company should not be considered a substitute for financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The financial results reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP and reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP results should be carefully evaluated. The non-GAAP financial measure used by the Company may be prepared differently from and, therefore, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

When evaluating the Company's operating performance in the periods presented, management reviewed non-GAAP net income results reflecting adjustments to exclude the impacts of share-based compensation to supplement U.S. GAAP financial data. As such, the Company believes that the presentation of the non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP income per diluted ADS and non-GAAP net margin provides important supplemental information to investors regarding financial and business trends relating to the Company's financial condition and results of operations in a manner consistent with that used by management. Pursuant to U.S. GAAP, the Company recognized significant amounts of expenses for the restricted shares and share options in the periods presented. To make financial results comparable period by period, the Company utilized the non-GAAP financial results to better understand its historical business operations.
