Third Quarter 2011 Financial Results
 
"The significant slowdown in the SME market overshadowed the underlying progress we continue to make in our efforts to gain further market share which includes adding clients based outside the mainland PRC," began Mr. Handong Cheng, Chairman and CEO of the Company. "We believe our decision to diversify our customer base and expand our service offerings will allow us to navigate this downturn better than our competitors. With more than $21 million in cash and no debt, we are able to maintain investments in attractive opportunities such as our social networking services information platform, Chuangye.com, and advertising and marketing platform, Liansuo.com. Regardless of the depth and duration of the slowdown, we remain confident we will emerge as a more resilient and competitive company."

Revenues for the third quarter of 2011 decreased 28% to $6.4 million from the third quarter of 2010 due to a significant slowdown in small business formation and lower spending by existing companies, resulting from a lack of available credit. Revenues from internet advertising and marketing decreased 46% to $3.9 million due to lower spending from the majority of both traditional and branded customers. The number of customers decreased by approximately 15% from the second quarter of 2011. TV advertisement revenues increased 23% to $2.0 million as a result of higher customer utilization rate and implementation of a new sales strategy. The Company experienced a second consecutive quarter of increased revenues from brand management and sales channel expansion services, generating $0.45 million in sales, or 7% of total revenues in the third quarter of 2011.

Business Updates
 
Due to restrictive bank lending and monetary policies impacting available credit for new and existing SME’s in China, management is focusing on several new growth initiatives to help offset short-term challenges on 28.com. These include:
 
·    
Launched an English-language, full-service portal dedicated to serving U.S. and international franchises looking to expand into China: www.expand2china.com. ChinaNet will leverage its strong relationships with thousands of SMEs, entrepreneurs, and regulators and industry-leading technology tools and services to help facilitate successful and sustainable expansion into China by international franchisors or business owners.
·    
Approximately one year after its initial expansion into Taiwan, ChinaNet has 15 clients leveraging both sales channel promotion and sales channel building services. The Company continues to allocate additional sales and marketing resources to further penetrate this high-growth market.
·    
ChinaNet’s management tool platform, Flying Cloud, which leverages the Company’s existing portfolio of technologies and services to accelerate the adoption of cloud-based services among franchisees and franchisors. The website, scheduled to launch by the end of 2011, currently has approximately 40 SMEs on beta trials.
·    
The Company plans to launch a reality show for entrepreneurs. Based on the same premise as the hit TV game show “Shark Tank” in the U.S., each episode of this show will feature eight prominent or rising enterprises, such as Peak, Fornet and Rongchan, who will evaluate the potential success of 5 finalist entrepreneurs who will be selected from an initial group of hundreds of entrepreneurs. The winner will receive sponsorship from the participating enterprises to start and operate his/her own business.
·    
ChinaNet will open its first franchise expo centre in Beijing for small to medium sized business owners to showcase their franchise ideas to prospective business partners. The center, which is approximately 17,000 square feet, provides shared space for franchise owners to conduct training, meetings and other business activities in a professional setting in exchange for a monthly fee. Management expects to attract new franchisees and entrepreneurs for its online marketing and brand management services over time while generating incremental fees from monthly service fees.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures
 
To supplement the unaudited consolidated statement of income and comprehensive income presented in accordance with GAAP, we are also providing non-GAAP measures of income before income tax expenses, net income, net income attributable to us and basic and diluted earnings per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, which are adjusted from results based on GAAP to exclude the non-cash gain recorded, which related to the gain on deconsolidation of a subsidiary for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and the fair value changes of the warrants we issued in our August 2009 financing for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. The non-GAAP financial measures are provided to enhance the investors' overall understanding of our current performance in on-going core operations as well as prospects for the future. These measures should be considered in addition to results prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP results. We use both GAAP and non-GAAP information in evaluating our operating business results internally and therefore deem it important to provide all of this information to investors.
 
The following table presents a reconciliation of our non-GAAP financial measures to the unaudited consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, (all amounts in thousands of US dollars):
