Mr. Kevin Ma, ATAs Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, stated, During Fiscal Year 2012, we not only successfully expanded upon a number of our close, long-term relationships with clients, particularly for HR Select, but we also successfully delivered new exams, such as those for China Customs and security guards. We are excited to have begun this relationship with Chinas General Administration of Customs and are pleased that the agency was satisfied with the transition of their paper-based customs declarer certification exam to our computer-based platform. Largely due to these new efforts and continued growing demand for ATAs HR Select and TOEIC, we delivered 8.0 million billable tests
during the year, an increase of 16.2% compared to fiscal 2011. We reported a gross margin of 54.9% for Fiscal Year 2012, which we believe validates the scalability of our computer-based testing business model.
We are very pleased with our results for both Fourth Quarter 2012 and Fiscal Year 2012. Despite the fiscal fourth quarters being a seasonally weaker period and the rescheduling of a banking exam from Fourth Quarter 2012 to First Quarter 2013, ATA achieved year-over-year growth in net revenues, gross profit, and net income.
Operating Review
In Fourth Quarter 2012, ATA delivered a total of 1.3 million billable tests, an increase of approximately 26.2% from the prior-year period. In Fiscal Year 2012, the Company delivered a total of 8.0 million billable tests, an increase of approximately 16.2% from 6.9 million billable tests in Fiscal Year 2011. The Company had a network of 2,462 authorized test centers throughout China as of March 31, 2012, which it believes is the largest test center network of any commercial testing service provider in China. ATA has delivered more than 39.1 million billable tests since it began operations in 1999.
GAAP Results
Fourth Quarter 2012
For Fourth Quarter 2012, ATAs total net revenues increased 21.6% to RMB60.5 million (US$9.6 million) from RMB49.7 million in the prior-year period, primarily due to increased revenues from testing services and its online continuing education services.

Gross profit for Fourth Quarter 2012 increased 46.6% to RMB32.8 million (US$5.2 million) from RMB22.4 million in the same period last fiscal year. Gross margin was 54.3% in Fourth Quarter 2012, compared to 45.0% in the prior-year period, primarily due to revenues from an exam that was delivered and for which costs were incurred in Third Quarter 2012.

The growth in net revenues was driven by higher revenues from testing services and test preparation and training solutions.
Net revenues from the testing services business increased 19.7% to RMB290.9 million (US$46.2 million), primarily due to a larger volume of, as well as a price increase on exams delivered to the securities industry; contributions from revenues from China Customs exams; and a 61.3% increase in revenues from ATAs HR Select and TOEIC services to RMB88.0 million (US$14.0 million), compared to the prior fiscal years RMB54.5 million.
Net revenues from test preparation and training solutions increased 75.0% to RMB27.0 million (US$4.3 million) in Fiscal Year 2012.
Net revenues from test-based educational services decreased by 51.0% to RMB12.6 million (US$2.0 million) in Fiscal Year 2012 as the Company continues to make its gradual exit from educational services, shifting its focus toward growing the core testing services and developing areas of business.

The gross margin increased to 54.9% in Fiscal Year 2012 from 50.9% in Fiscal Year 2011, largely due to the growth in revenues from higher-margin test services and improved economies of scale.
Operating expenses for Fiscal Year 2012 decreased 3.7% to RMB128.8 million (US$20.4 million) from RMB133.8 million in Fiscal Year 2011, primarily due to decreased spending on research and development and sales and marketing.

Mr. Ma concluded, We remain confident in the long-term prospects of Chinas computer-based testing market, and continue focusing on growing each of our existing business segments while exploring new test titles and attracting new test takers. We anticipate continued growth in our core testing services business in Fiscal Year 2013 as we continue our efforts to increase awareness of our exam offerings and work with different government agencies that are interested in the possibility of converting a number of their paper-based exams to our cost-effective and efficient computer-based platform. We also expect continued momentum in HR Select and TOEIC growth as we expand upon our existing client relationships and develop new relationships. As computer-based testing gains traction in China, we believe that the nations population will increasingly realize the importance of benchmarking and certifying their skills for potential employers. ATA continues to follow a strict cost structure that makes our business inherently scalable and continues to generate excess cash flow that will help finance the Companys ongoing healthy, organic growth.
These are ATAs current projections, which are subject to change. You are cautioned that operating results in Fourth Quarter 2012 or in Fiscal Year 2012 are not necessarily indicative of operating results for any future periods.

The factors that could cause the Companys actual financial and operating results to differ from what the Company currently anticipates can include its ability to meet challenges associated with its rapid expansion, its ability to meet the expectations of current and future clients, its ability to deploy new test titles, its ability to win new enterprise contracts, its ability to convert its existing contracts into actual revenues, the economy of China, uncertainties with respect to the Chinas legal and regulatory environments, and other factors stated in the Companys filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
The financial information contained in this release should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Companys annual report on Form 20-F for its fiscal year ended March 31, 2011, and other filings that ATA has made with the SEC. The filings are available on the SECs website at www.sec.gov and at ATAs website at www.ata.net.cn.

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 of the Companys views 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 Companys financial information is stated in Renminbi (RMB), the currency of the Peoples Republic of China. The translation of RMB amounts for Fourth Quarter 2012 and the fiscal year ended March 31, 2012, into U.S. dollars are included solely for the convenience of readers and have been made at the rate of RMB6.2975 to US$1.00, the noon buying rate as of March 30, 2012, 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 ATAs 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 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 managements internal comparisons to ATAs 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 excluding share-based compensation expense and foreign currency exchange gains or losses and basic and diluted earnings 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 ATAs 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.
