Mr. Kevin Ma, ATA's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, stated, "We were pleased to have successfully delivered the CPA exam using ATA's advanced testing technologies for the third consecutive year, with over 1.6 million exams taken across China, and the Hong Kong and Macau Special Administrative Regions. As a result of the CPA exam taking place in Second Quarter 2015, a quarter earlier than in fiscal 2014, the number of billable exams delivered and corresponding revenues increased significantly from those in Second Quarter 2014. ATA delivered 3.0 million billable exams during Second Quarter 2015, including exams for the Securities Association of China ('SAC')."
Mr. Ma continued, "As our testing services business continues to see stable growth, we are focusing our efforts on how we can better serve consumers. For test takers, we launched our new mobile application, Exam Inventory Navigator ('Kao Shi Dao Hang') in June and issued an update to the application in August. The updated version includes enhanced content, such as test preparation information for various exam subjects, and increases the functionality of the original version by allowing users to visualize each exam with an exam timeline from exam preparation to exam delivery to results being issued, as well as enabling users to customize their subscriptions for receiving exam information. The new version also supports one-click logins by using registered information from third-party platforms, including QQ, Weibo and Renren. We continue to work closely with New Oriental Education & Technology Group on the joint venture we previously announced in July, which aims to be a leading educational tool and resource for working professionals in China, and we are excited to have recently announced a new partnership and strategic investment with Master Mind Education ('Master Mind'), which marks ATA's expansion into China's K-12 education market. We will be working closely with the team at Master Mind on integrating our MTS technology into their network of K-12 after-school institutions, and by joining our respective strengths and resources together, we aim to better serve students, teachers and families within a continuously expanding network of K-12 after-school institutions throughout China. These new projects are still at an early stage of their development, but as we continue to make progress on these initiatives and explore additional opportunities for mutually beneficial business partnerships, we are confident that ATA's entry into the consumer market will be a driver of long-term growth for the Company."

We are very pleased with the mobile application's initial positive reception and believe that the students and working professionals of today need more than what is currently being offered in the education and assessment marketplace. ATA understands that each person will have unique goals and needs at different stages of their lives when it comes to education and career. Our ultimate goal is to improve the individual experience for each student and each professional in China by providing consumers with readily accessible, valuable information that can offer additional insight into their personal strengths and weaknesses as they make important decisions for their futures.
"In line with the Company's new consumer strategy, ATA recently announced that it has moved its headquarters to a new office building in Jianwai SOHO in Beijing and also revealed a new logo, which we hope will soon become an easily recognizable brand name amongst consumers in China. We are very excited about all the new developments at ATA and look forward to updating investors on the progress of our consumer initiatives in the coming months."

The financial information contained in this release should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company's annual report on Form 20-F for its fiscal year ended March 31, 2014, and other filings that ATA has made with the SEC.

The forward-looking statements in this release involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties and are based on current expectations, assumptions, estimates, and projections about ATA and the markets in which it operates. The Company undertakes no obligation to update forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this release, to reflect subsequent events or circumstances, or to changes in its expectations, except as may be required by law.

Currency Convenience Translation
The Company's financial information is stated in Renminbi ("RMB"), the currency of the People's Republic of China. The translation of RMB amounts for Second Quarter 2015 ended September 30, 2014, into U.S. dollars are included solely for the convenience of readers and have been made at the rate of RMB6.1380 to US$1.00, the noon buying rate as of September 30, 2014, in New York for cable transfers in RMB per U.S. dollar as set forth in the H.10 weekly statistical release of the Federal Reserve Board. Such translations should not be construed as representations that RMB amounts could be converted into U.S. dollars at that rate or any other rate, or to be the amounts that would have been reported under U.S. GAAP.
About Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement ATA's consolidated financial information presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), ATA uses the following non-GAAP financial measures: net income (loss) excluding share-based compensation expense and foreign currency exchange gain or loss, and basic and diluted earnings (losses) per common share and ADS excluding share-based compensation expense and foreign currency exchange gain or loss.
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 GAAP. ATA believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information about its performance by excluding share-based compensation expense and foreign currency exchange gains or losses, which may not be indicative of its operating performance from a cash perspective.
ATA believes that both management and investors benefit from 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 ATA's historical performance. ATA computes its non-GAAP financial measures using a consistent method from period to period. ATA 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 net income (loss) excluding share-based compensation expense and foreign currency exchange gains or losses and basic and diluted earnings (losses) per common share and per ADS excluding share-based compensation expense and foreign currency exchange gain or loss is that share-based compensation charges and foreign currency exchange gains or losses have been, and are expected to continue to be for the foreseeable future, a significant recurring expense in ATA's business.
Management compensates for these limitations by providing specific information regarding the GAAP amounts excluded from each non-GAAP measure. The table captioned "Unaudited Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Measures to the Most Comparable GAAP Measures" shown at the end this news release has more details on the reconciliations between GAAP financial measures that are most directly comparable to the non-GAAP financial measures used by ATA.
