Second Quarter of 2010 Operational Highlights
* During the second quarter of 2010, the Company opened 42 new hotels, including nine leased-and-operated hotels and 33 franchised-and-managed hotels. As of June 30, 2010, the Company had 324 hotels in operation, consisting of 187 leased-and-operated hotels and 137 franchised-and-managed hotels. Our hotels in operation covered 51 cities in China as of June 30, 2010, compared with 47 cities at the end of the previous quarter.
* As of June 30, 2010, the Company had a total pipeline of 159 hotels under development, including 56 leased-and-operated hotels and 103 franchised-and-managed hotels.
* Shanghai World Expo (the "Expo"), lasting from May 1 to October 31, 2010, attracted a significant number of visitors to Shanghai. As of June 30, 2010, 24% of the Company's hotel rooms were in Shanghai. Our RevPAR in Shanghai boosted during the Expo.
* The ADR, or average daily rate, was RMB196 in the second quarter of 2010, compared with RMB174 in the second quarter of 2009 and RMB173 in the previous quarter. The 12.6% year-over-year increase was mainly attributable to the improving economic conditions, our strengthening brand name, and the Expo. The sequential increase was mainly due to seasonality and the Expo.
* The occupancy rate for all hotels in operation was 98% in the second quarter of 2010, compared with 96% in the second quarter of 2009, and 93% in the previous quarter. The Expo greatly contributed to the year-over-year increase. The sequential increase was mainly due to seasonality and the Expo.
* RevPAR, defined as revenue per available room, was RMB192 in the second quarter of 2010, compared with RMB167 in the second quarter of 2009 and RMB161 in the previous quarter. The 15.0% year-over-year increase was attributable to the higher occupancy rate and higher ADR, driven by improving economic conditions, our brand and the Expo. The sequential increase was mainly due to seasonality and the Expo.
* RevPAR for the hotels which had been in operation for at least 18 months was RMB205 for the second quarter of 2010, an 18.5% increase from RMB173 for the second quarter of 2009 for the same group of hotels. The improvement was caused by both higher occupancy rate and higher ADR, as the economy improved, our brand strengthened and the Expo brought additional business opportunities.
"We are delighted to see another profitable quarter with remarkable operating performance," said Mr. Matthew Zhang, Chief Executive Officer of HanTing Inns and Hotels. "In the second quarter 2010, we successfully penetrated into four new cities. Our HanTing Club had more than two million individual members as of June 30, 2010."
Second Quarter of 2010 Financial Results
Total revenues for the quarter increased 39.0% year-over-year to RMB464.0 million (US$68.4 million) primarily as a result of our expanded base of hotels and higher RevPAR. Compared to the first quarter of 2010, our total revenues increased 28.6%.
Total revenues from leased-and-operated hotels for the second quarter of 2010 were RMB432.9 million (US$63.8 million), representing a 34.6% increase year-over-year as both the number of leased-and-operated hotels and the revenue per leased-and-operated hotel increased. As of June 30, 2010, we had 187 leased-and-operated hotels in operation, compared with 160 a year ago.
Total revenues from franchised-and-managed hotels for the second quarter of 2010 were RMB31.1 million (US$4.6 million), representing a 153.6% increase year-over-year due to the increased number of franchised-and-managed hotels and higher RevPAR. As of June 30, 2010, we had 137 franchised-and-managed hotels in operation, compared with 40 a year ago.
Net revenues for the second quarter of 2010 were RMB438.9 million (US$64.7 million), representing an increase of 39.2% year-over-year and an increase of 28.7% sequentially.
Total operating costs and expenses for the second quarter of 2010 were RMB334.3 million (US$49.3 million), compared to RMB277.3 million (US$40.6 million) in the second quarter of 2009 and RMB323.7 million (US$47.4 million) in the previous quarter. Total operating costs and expenses excluding share-based compensation expenses (non-GAAP) for the quarter were RMB331.3 million (US$48.9 million), representing a 20.0% increase year-over-year mainly due to our enlarged network. Major components of operating costs and expenses are described and discussed in more details below.
Hotel operating costs for the second quarter of 2010 were RMB273.6 million (US$40.4 million), compared to RMB239.1 million (US$35.0 million) in the second quarter of 2009 and RMB272.2 million (US$39.9 million) in the previous quarter. Total hotel operating costs excluding share-based compensation expenses (non-GAAP) were RMB273.3 million (US$40.3 million), representing 62.3% of net revenues, compared to 75.9% for the same quarter in 2009 and 79.7% in the previous quarter. The year-over-year decrease in hotel operating costs as a percentage of net revenues was primarily due to higher revenue per hotel and increased proportion of franchised revenues. Sequentially the hotel operating costs as a percentage of net revenues decreased as the second quarter had higher revenue and lower utility cost.
Selling and marketing expenses for the second quarter of 2010 were RMB16.5 million (US$2.4 million), compared to RMB16.3 million (US$2.4 million) in the second quarter of 2009 and RMB14.5 million (US$2.1 million) in the previous quarter. Selling and marketing expenses excluding share-based compensation expenses (non-GAAP) were RMB16.3 million (US$2.4 million), representing 3.7% of net revenues, compared to 5.2% for the same quarter in 2009 and 4.2% in the previous quarter.
General and administrative expenses for the second quarter of 2010 were RMB25.6 million (US$3.8 million), compared to RMB14.2 million (US$2.1 million) in the second quarter of 2009 and RMB25.8 million (US$3.8 million) in the previous quarter. General and administrative expenses excluding share-based compensation expenses (non-GAAP) were RMB23.2 million (US$3.4 million), or 5.3% of the net revenues, compared with 4.1% of the net revenues in the same period of 2009 and 6.7% in the previous quarter. The year-over-year increase in general and administrative expenses was mainly driven by increased personnel cost as a result of network expansion, and professional service fees associated with our becoming a public company.
Pre-opening expenses for the second quarter of 2010 were RMB18.6 million (US$2.7million), representing an increase of 140.5% year-over-year and an increase of 65.5% sequentially. The increase in pre-opening expenses was mainly due to the increased number of leased-and-operated hotels under construction.
Income from operations for the quarter was RMB104.5 million (US$15.4 million), compared to income from operations of RMB38.0 million (US$5.6 million) in the second quarter of 2009 and income from operations of RMB17.2 million (US$2.5 million) in the previous quarter. Excluding share-based compensation expenses, adjusted income from operations (non-GAAP) for the quarter was RMB107.5 million (US$15.9 million), representing a 174.1% increase from the same quarter of 2009.
Net income attributable to China Lodging Group, Limited for the quarter was RMB79.7 million (US$11.8 million), compared to net income attributable to China Lodging Group, Limited of RMB27.9 million (US$4.1 million) in the second quarter of 2009, and net income attributable to China Lodging Group, Limited of RMB12.4 million (US$1.8 million) in the previous quarter. Excluding share-based compensation expenses, adjusted net income attributable to the China Lodging Group, Limited (non-GAAP) for the quarter was RMB82.7 million (US$12.2 million), representing a 183.1% increase from the second quarter of 2009. The year-over-year improvement on profit was mainly attributable to the improved RevPAR and the increased number of hotels in our network. The sequential increase in profit was mainly due to seasonality and the favorable impact of the Expo.
Basic and diluted net earnings per share/ADS. For the second quarter of 2010, basic net earnings per share was RMB0.33(US$0.05), while diluted net earnings per share was RMB0.32 (US$0.05); basic net earnings per ADS was RMB1.32 (US$0.20), while diluted net earnings per ADS was RMB1.29 (US$0.19). Excluding share-based compensation expenses, adjusted basic net earnings per share (non-GAAP) and adjusted diluted net earnings per share (non-GAAP) were RMB0.34 (US$0.05), and adjusted basic net earnings per ADS (non-GAAP) was RMB1.37 (US$0.20), while adjusted diluted net earnings per ADS (non-GAAP) was RMB1.34 (US$0.20).
EBITDA (non-GAAP) for the second quarter of 2010 was RMB144.5 million (US$21.3 million), compared to RMB71.3 million (US$10.4 million) in the second quarter of 2009 and RMB54.9 million (US$8.0 million) in the previous quarter. EBITDA from operating hotels (non-GAAP) was RMB163.0 million (US$24.0 million), an increase of 106.4% from the same period of 2009 and an increase of 146.7% sequentially. The year-over-year increase in EBITDA and EBITDA from operating hotels was primarily due to the substantial expansion of hotels and improved RevPAR during the period. The sequential increase in EBITDA and EBITDA from operating hotels was mainly due to seasonality and the favorable impact of the Expo.
Cash flow. Net operating cash flow for the second quarter of 2010 was RMB143.4 million (US$21.1 million). Cash spent on the purchase of property and equipment, which is part of investing cash flow, was RMB64.6 million (US$9.5 million).
Cash and cash equivalents. As of June 30, 2010, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of RMB1,285.4 million (US$189.5 million). The Company completed its initial public offering and a private placement to Ctrip.com International, Ltd. on March 26. The net proceeds of approximately US$140 million were received in April 2010.
Business Outlook and Guidance
"We are pleased with the results for the first half of 2010, as we added 88 hotels and generated RMB92 million of net profit and RMB199 million of EBITDA," commented CEO Mr. Zhang. "For the full year 2010, we expect to open around 60 leased-and-operated hotels and 125 to 135 franchised-and-managed hotels."
The Company expects to achieve net revenues in the range of RMB460 to 480 million in the third quarter of 2010. In light of the stronger-than-expected demand driven by the Expo, we adjust our full year net revenues forecast to grow 35% to 37% from 2009.
The above forecast reflects the Company's current and preliminary view, which is subject to change.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement the Company's unaudited consolidated financial results presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company uses the following non-GAAP measures defined as non-GAAP financial measures by the SEC: hotel operating costs excluding share-based compensation expenses, general and administrative expenses excluding share-based compensation expenses, selling expenses excluding share-based compensation expenses, adjusted income from operations excluding share-based compensation expenses, adjusted net income attributable to China Lodging Group, Limited excluding share-based compensation expenses, adjusted basic and diluted net earnings per share and per ADS excluding share-based compensation expenses, EBITDA and EBITDA from operating hotels. 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 U.S. GAAP. For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures, please see the table captioned "Reconciliations of GAAP and non-GAAP results" set forth at the end of this release. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding its performance by excluding share-based expenses that may not be indicative of its operating performance. The Company 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 the Company's historical performance. The Company 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 non-GAAP financial measures excluding share-based compensation expenses is that share-based compensation expenses have been and will continue to be a significant recurring expense in our 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.
The Company believes that EBITDA is a useful financial metric to assess the operating and financial performance before the impact of investing and financing transactions and income taxes. Given the significant investments that the Company has made in leasehold improvements, depreciation and amortization expense comprises a significant portion of the cost structure. In addition, the Company believes that EBITDA is widely used by other companies in the lodging industry and may be used by investors as a measure of financial performance. The Company believes that EBITDA will provide investors with a useful tool for comparability between periods because it eliminates depreciation and amortization expense attributable to capital expenditures. The Company also uses EBITDA from operating hotels, which is defined as EBITDA before pre-opening expenses, to assess operating results of the hotels in operation. The Company believe that the exclusion of pre-opening expenses, a portion of which is non-cash rental expenses, helps facilitate year-on-year comparison of the results of operations as the number of hotels in the development stage may vary significantly from year to year. Therefore, the Company believes EBITDA from operating hotels more closely reflects the performance capability of hotels currently in operation. The calculation of EBITDA and EBITDA from operating hotels does not deduct interest income. The presentation of EBITDA and EBITDA from operating hotels should not be construed as an indication that our future results will be unaffected by other charges and gains considered to be outside the ordinary course of the business.
The use of EBITDA and EBITDA from operating hotels has certain limitations. Depreciation and amortization expense for various long-term assets, income tax and interest expense have been and will be incurred and are not reflected in the presentation of EBITDA. Pre-opening expenses have been and will be incurred and are not reflected in the presentation of EBITDA from operating hotels. Each of these items should also be considered in the overall evaluation of the results. The Company compensates for these limitations by providing the relevant disclosure of the depreciation and amortization, interest expense, income tax expense, pre-opening expenses and other relevant items both in the reconciliations to the U.S. GAAP financial measures and in the consolidated financial statements, all of which should be considered when evaluating the performance.
The terms EBITDA and EBITDA from operating hotels are not defined under U.S. GAAP, and neither EBITDA nor EBITDA from operating hotels is a measure of net income, operating income, operating performance or liquidity presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. When assessing the operating and financial performance, you should not consider this data in isolation or as a substitute for our net income, operating income or any other operating performance measure that is calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, the Company's EBITDA or EBITDA from operating hotels may not be comparable to EBITDA or EBITDA from operating hotels or similarly titled measures utilized by other companies since such other companies may not calculate EBITDA or EBITDA from operating hotels in the same manner as the Company does.
Reconciliations of the Company's non-GAAP financial measures, including EBITDA and EBITDA from operating hotels, to consolidated statement of operations information are included at the end of this press release.
