"This was a very strong quarter as we continued along a robust growth trajectory," said HiSoft's Chief Executive Officer Tiak Koon Loh. "During the second quarter, we had positive momentum across all business sectors and higher levels of strategic engagement from our key customers. We are seeing a substantial increase in the volume of work coming from within the domestic China market. These results further substantiate the strength of the HiSoft model of leveraging best practices and know-how with our global clients to grow our domestic business with China enterprises."
HiSoft's Chief Financial Officer Christine Lu-Wong added, "We believe our second quarter growth is indicative of our strong position in the market. We recorded strong net revenues, generated strong operating cash flow and continued to maintain days sales outstanding at levels much lower than industry norms. Building upon this advantage, while maintaining disciplined cost control, will be our main priority in the quarters ahead."
Second Quarter 2010 Financial Results
Net Revenues
Net revenues were US$34.7 million for the second quarter of 2010, an increase of 63.9% year-over-year from US$21.2 million for the corresponding period in 2009. The increase reflects a strong demand for the Company's information technology and research and development services.
Net Revenues by Geographic Markets
Based on the location of clients' headquarters, the Company's largest geographic market, the United States and European markets, accounted for US$23.4 million or 67.3% of net revenues during the second quarter of 2010, followed by 21.3% in Japan, 6.5% in Greater China and4.9% in Others.
Measuring the Company's revenues by geographic markets based on the location of the contract signing entities, Greater China accounted for 32.8% of net revenues in the second quarter of 2010, while the United States and European markets accounted for 26.4%, Japan accounted for 25.8% and Others accounted for 15.0%.
Largest Clients
Revenues from the Company's top client and top five clients accounted for 13.9% and 44.8% of net revenues, respectively, during the second quarter of 2010, compared to 15.3% and 44.5% respectively, for the corresponding period in 2009.
Gross Profit and Gross Margin
Gross profit was US$12.9 million for the second quarter of 2010, an increase of 70.1% year-over-year from US$7.6 million for the corresponding period in 2009. During the second quarter of 2010, gross margin was 37.2%, compared to 35.8% for the corresponding period in 2009. The Company noted that gross margin was driven by strong net revenue growth and productivity improvement in service delivery during the quarter.
Operating Expenses
Total operating expenses, which includes general and administrative expenses as well as sales and marketing expenses, were US$8.6 million for the second quarter of 2010, an increase of 50.9% year-over-year from US$5.7 million for the corresponding period in 2009. The year-over-year increases included US$1.0 million share-based compensation expense, US$0.2 million amortization expense of intangible assets and US$0.2 million change in fair value of contingent consideration payable for M&A incurred in the second quarter of 2010.
Operating Income and Operating Margin
Income from operations for the second quarter of 2010 was US$4.3 million, an increase of 127.7% year-over-year from US$1.9 million for the corresponding period in 2009. Operating margin increased to 12.4% for the second quarter of 2010, compared to 8.9% for the corresponding period in 2009. The year-over-year margin improvement was primarily due to economies of scale in line with strong revenue growth.
Provision for Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes was US$0.7 million for the second quarter of 2010, compared to US$0.2 million for the corresponding period in 2009. For the second quarter of 2010, the effective tax rate was 14.7%, compared to 12.6% for the corresponding period in 2009. The increase in effective tax rate was due to a new tax circular: Further Clarification on Implementation of Preferential EIT Rate ("Circular 157"), issued by the State Administration of Taxation on April 21, 2010. Circular 157, appears to have the effect that an HNTE entity in a tax holiday period is entitled to pay tax at either the lower of 15% or50% of the applicable PRC tax rate. Circular 157 is unclear as to whether its effect is retrospective but the Company notes that the State Administration of Taxation has recently taken the position that the Circular applies only to tax years commencing from January 1, 2010. Depending on the interpretation of the circular by the local tax authority, the applicable tax rate for the Company's Beijing operating subsidiary in 2010 may increase to 12.5% from the 7.5% rate that the subsidiary used in the first quarter of 2010. The Company has now provided for a 12.5% income tax rate for the subsidiary in the first half of 2010 and will seek to determine the appropriate interpretation with the relevant tax authority during the second half of the year.
Net Income and Earnings per ADS
Net income was US$3.8 million for the second quarter of 2010, an increase of 122.7% from US$1.7 million for the corresponding period in 2009. Diluted earnings per ADS was US$0.17 for the second quarter of 2010, compared to US$0.09 for the corresponding period in 2009.
Non-GAAP net income was US$5.4 million for the second quarter of 2010, an increase of 187.1% from US$1.9 million for the corresponding period in 2009. Non-GAAP diluted earnings per ADS was US$0.24 for the second quarter of 2010, compared to US$0.09 for the corresponding period in 2009.
Cash and Cash Flow
As of June 30, 2010, HiSoft had cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash totaling US$51.9 million. Operating cash flow for the second quarter of 2010 was an inflow of approximately US$3.1 million.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement HiSoft's consolidated financial results presented in accordance with GAAP, HiSoft uses the following measures defined as non-GAAP financial measures by the SEC: net income and diluted earnings per ADS which exclude share-based compensation expense, amortization of acquired intangible assets and change in fair value of contingent consideration payable for business acquisition. Non-GAAP net income and diluted earnings per ADS for prior periods have been reclassified so that the presentations are consistent. 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.
HiSoft believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding its performance by excluding certain expenses and expenditures 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 the Company's performance and when planning and forecasting future periods. A limitation of using non-GAAP net income and diluted earnings per ADS is that these non-GAAP measures exclude the share-based compensation charges, amortization of acquired intangible assets and change in fair value of contingent consideration payable for business acquisition that have been and will continue to be for the foreseeable future a significant recurring expense in the 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 comparable to non-GAAP financial measures.
