DALIAN, China, October 14, 2010 /PRNewswire-Asia/ – China New Media Corp. (OTCBB: CMDI) (“China New Media” or the “Company”), a fast-growing advertising company operating the largest outdoor media network in Dalian, China, announced record revenues and net income for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010.
 
“We are very pleased with our results for fiscal 2010, which exceeded our expectations. The record revenues and profitability we achieved during the fiscal year reflect the successful expansion of our outdoor media network in Dalian, Shenyang and Tianjin, three key commercial cities in northeast China,” said James Wang, Chief Executive Officer of China New Media. “Our groundbreaking City Navigator® multimedia advertising platform also began to generate revenues in 2010, and we expect this business segment to become a major growth driver for the Company as we expand our advertising network into China’s top-tier commercial cities, including Beijing and Shanghai.”
 
 
Mr. Wang continued, “As China’s economic growth and urbanization continues at a steady pace, the nation’s outdoor advertising industry is poised for double-digit growth in the coming years. Going forward, we plan to aggressively promote our brand name to broaden our multinational client base, which has grown from 562 to 1,687 clients since the end of fiscal 2009. We also intend to deploy the latest advances in digital display technology to attract new customers and meet the advertising needs of our existing clients. Our business strategy is proving tremendously effective, and we are more confident than ever in our growth prospects for fiscal 2011 and beyond.”
 
 
 
 
 

 
Fiscal Year 2010 Financial Results
 
Revenues from the sale of outdoor advertising on the Company’s advertising network are generated in the following categories: (1) Street Fixture and Display Network, (2) City Transit System Display Network, (3) Outdoor Billboards, (4) City Navigator®, and (5) other service income, including construction and design services.
 
Revenue for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010 was $13.98 million, an increase of approximately $5.56 million or 66.1%, from $8.42 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009. This increase was mainly attributable to the increased sales to existing and new customers based on the expanded outdoor advertising network as the Company obtained more desirable locations for its outdoor advertising platforms. Specifically, revenues generated from the Dalian District totaled $13.46 million, or 96.3% of total revenue, and revenues from the Shenyang District totaled $0.48 million, or 3.4% of total revenue.  During fiscal year 2010, the Company also generated sales revenue of $0.04 million for the Tianjin District, or 0.3% of total revenue, compared with none for the previous year.

Gross profit increased 64.3% to $8.16 million in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010, compared with $4.96 million for the same period of 2009. The increase in gross profit from 2009 to 2010 was attributable to growth in revenues. Gross margin was 58.4% and 59.0% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The slight decrease in gross margin was due to increased depreciation of advertising equipment as the Company secured more advertising platforms during fiscal 2010.

Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) totaled $1.88 million during fiscal year 2010, up from $1.36 million for the previous year.  The increase in SG&A expenses was in line with the increase in total revenue and also due to higher maintenance fees in connection with being a public company. Operating income for fiscal 2010 rose 74.4% to $6.28 million, compared to $3.60 million for the fiscal year 2009.
 
As a result of the factors described above, net income attributable to the Company increased 48.9% to $4.22 million, compared with $2.83 million in the same period a year ago. Earnings per diluted share were $0.15 and $0.11 for the fiscal year 2010 and 2009, respectively, representing a year-over-year increase of 36.4%.
 

 
 
 

 
Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2010, China New Media had cash and cash equivalents of $1.67 million, an increase of 1034.6% compared with $0.15 million as of June 30, 2009. The Company’s principal sources of liquidity were generated from its operations and through capital contributions and bank loans. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010, the Company’s operations have produced positive operating cash flow of $2.14 million, an increase of 50.5% as compared to $1.42 million for the same period ended June 30, 2009. The increased cash flow from operations was mainly due to increases in net income, depreciation and amortization, and a year-over-year decrease in advances to suppliers, and partially offset by an increase in security deposits and a decrease in deferred revenues.
 
Cash used in investing activities was $8.56 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010 as compared to $4.06 million for the previous year. The Company mainly invested in acquiring new outdoor advertising platforms to expand its existing advertising network.
 
For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010, the Company financed a total amount of $11.47 million through bank loans and capital contributions, as compared to $4.24 million provided by financing activities in the previous year. The increase was primarily due to the proceeds received from a private equity placement in November 2009 and an increase in short-term bank loans.
 
 
 
 

 
Fiscal 2010 Business Highlights
 
 
- In December 2009, the Company went public through a reverse merger with Golden Key International, Inc., and in conjunction with the merger, it changed its name to China New Media Corp. China New Media began trading on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol “CMDI” on December 28, 2009.
 
- China New Media lit up Xinghaiwan Square in Dalian on New Year's Eve with its mega-LED screen, displaying the countdown to 2010 for tens of thousands of people. This year's event marked the first-ever New Year's Eve celebration in the city's outdoor square and drew the attention of many mainstream media outlets including Dalian Daily, Dalian Evening News, New Business News, and Peninsula Morning News.
 
- In January 2010, China New Media hosted the opening ceremony for the Company's harbor-style street bus shelters, featuring advanced LED digital display technology, in the Dalian Economic Development Zone. China New Media has exclusive rights to operate the shelter's advertising businesses.
 
- In March 2010, China New Media entered into a cooperation agreement with Beijing Shidai Lianxin Cultural Propagation Co., Ltd. to cooperate on the ''Cross-Strait Hundred-Screen Information Display Network'' project, which entails the installation of around 100 large-size LED screens throughout the core commercial zones, central business districts, airports and surrounding areas of Beijing. These large-size LED screens will be used primarily for advertising media operations, with the remaining time slots used to broadcast intercultural communication between China and Taiwan, for a minimum of 15 years.
 
- Also in March 2010, China New Media entered into an agreement with Liaoning Daily Press Group, a newspaper giant in China, to install and operate five mega-sized LED media screens in key business districts in Shenyang and in the Shenyang North Railway Station.
 
- In June 2010, China New Media completed the acquisition of its first outdoor high-definition LED screen in Shenyang, a major commercial center in northeast China. The screen is located near the Shenyang South Railway Station, one of the city's busiest traffic hubs with an average daily flow of 500,000 pedestrians and 350,000 vehicles. The screen began operating upon the completion of the transaction.
 
 
 
 
 

 
Business Outlook
 
The increase in China New Media’s operating results over the past two fiscal years is attributable to a number of factors, including the substantial expansion of the Company’s outdoor media network in Dalian, Shenyang and Tianjin, which are three of the largest cities in northeast China, and the Company’s technical innovation and large-scale media system upgrading. 
 
Demand for the Company’s services is directly related to outdoor advertising spending in northeast China, which is determined by economic conditions in the region. According to the “Statistical Communiqué of the PRC on 2008 National Economic and Social Development” released by the National Bureau of Statistics of China in February 2009, China’s economy grew at an annual rate of 9% to 13% over the previous five years. Domestic retail sales grew at an average annual growth rate of 15.5% over the same period. The Chinese government’s latest economic stimulus plan is aimed at building a domestic consumer-driven economy, which the Company believes will generate more demand for outdoor advertising. China New Media expects outdoor advertising spending in its regional market to maintain its double-digit growth in the years to come.
 
All amounts herein are expressed in U.S. dollars. This notice is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Company’s financial statements and accompanying management discussion and analysis, which are accessible on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.
