TAIYUAN CITY, China, August 16, 2011 /PRNewswire-Asia/ -- China Bilingual Technology & Education Group Inc. (OTCBB: CBLY) ("China Bilingual" or the "Company"), an education company that owns and operates high-quality, K-12 private boarding schools in China, today announced its financial results for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2011.

Second Quarter Fiscal Year 2011 Financial Highlights: (Three-Month Results)

  
Revenues increased 4.8% year-over-year to $6.3 million, compared with $6.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010.

Net Income increased 25.0% year-over-year to $3.2 million (or 51.1% of revenues), compared to $2.6 million (or 42.9% of revenues) for the same period last year, primarily due to the allocation of costs associated with the Company’s recapitalization on June 30, 2010 and subsequent public listing.

  
The Company is exempt from paying corporate income taxes because of its classification in China’s primary education sector.

  
Basic and Diluted EPS increased to $0.11 per share, compared to Basic and Diluted EPS of $0.10 per share for the three months ended June 30, 2010.

Mid-Year 2011 Financial Highlights: (Six-Month Results)

Net Income increased 1.7% year-over-year to $6.0 million (or 48.6% of revenues), compared to $5.9 million (or 49.6% of revenues) for the same period in 2010.

  
Basic and Diluted EPS decreased to $0.20 per share, compared to Basic and Diluted EPS of $0.23 per share in the same period a year ago, primarily due to the additional common shares issued in the Company’s recapitalization on June 30, 2010.

  
Net property, equipment, and land use rights were $32.1 million at historical book value as of June 30, 2011, and the Company has no long-term debt.

  
Stockholders’ Equity increased 21.9%, or $6.9 million, to $38.6 million as of June 30, 2011.

“We are pleased with our second quarter performance, highlighted by significant margin and profitability improvements,” stated Mr. Ren Zhiqing, Chairman and CEO of China Bilingual. “For the remainder of 2011, we will focus on increasing enrollment at our existing facilities while we continue to seek suitable opportunities to expand our business model into additional schools. We are working to complete the acquisition of a private K-12 boarding school by the end of August, which could over time double our enrollment capacity to approximately 20,000 students. Education is China’s third largest consumer spending category, and our strong academic reputation provides us with a major competitive advantage in the fast-growing private education sector. We remain dedicated to becoming an education leader in China and increasing long-term value for our shareholders.”
