Unaudited Financial Results
BEIJING, Aug. 16, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) 21Vianet Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: VNET) (21Vianet or the Company), a leading carrier-neutral internet data center services provider in China, today announced its unaudited financial results for the second quarter of 2016. The Company will hold a conference call at 8:00 p.m. Eastern Time on August 16, 2016. Dial-in details are provided at the end of the release.
Second Quarter 2016 Financial Highlights
| Net revenues increased to RMB910.8 million (US$137.1 million) from RMB866.8 million in the comparative period in 2015 |
Mr. Steve Zhang, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, stated, Despite headwinds in certain market segments, we are pleased to report that core business areas, including IDC, Cloud and VPN gained solid growth momentum in the second quarter. Following a slow start during the first quarter this year, new cabinet additions in our self-built data centers were back on track and utilization continued to trend up and we expect the momentum in our core IDC segment to continue. Additionally, we are experiencing solid growth in our cloud business, driven by both steady growth from our existing Microsoft cloud business, as well as contributions from IBM cloud business. However, challenges in our managed network services (MNS) segment remain, which we are proactively and aggressively addressing. As we continue to focus on our key growth areas and optimizing our revenue mix, we believe that we are well positioned to capture the tremendous growth potential in China and maintain our position as a leading internet infrastructure service provider in China.
Mr. Terry Wang, Chief Financial Officer of the Company, commented, We see positive signs in terms of new business opportunities and cost control initiatives, even as pricing pressure continued to limit our top line growth in the managed network services. Our total revenues in the second quarter of 2016 increased to RMB910.8 million (US$137.1 million), primarily driven by improving year-over-year growth in the hosting related business, including IDC, Cloud and VPN services. Overall number of cabinets reached 24,098 during the quarter and those in our self-built data centers accounted for 69% of total. Utilization rate further improved to 76.2%, from 74.6% in the first quarter and 67.5% a year ago as cabinet billing growth remained strong. Further, we are pleased with our operations teams progress on cost control front, which is yet to be fully reflected in our quarterly financial results and should yield positive results in the coming quarters. With our core hosting business steadily growing, new business opportunities opening up and cost-control effort progressing, we remain confident to reignite margin growth going forward.
Second Quarter 2016 Financial Results
REVENUES: Net revenues for the second quarter of 2016 increased by 5.1% to RMB910.8 million (US$137.1 million) from RMB866.8 million in the comparative period in 2015, primarily driven by a year-over-year increase in IDC, Cloud and VPN revenues, partially offset by the decline in MNS revenues.
Net revenues from hosting and related services increased by 19.3% to RMB767.9 million (US$115.5 million) in the second quarter of 2016 from RMB643.7 million in the comparative period in 2015, primarily due to the year-over-year increase in total number of billable cabinets and improved utilization rate, partially offset by lower MRR, or monthly recurring revenue, per cabinet. Net revenues from MNS were RMB142.9 million (US$21.5 million) in the second quarter of 2016, compared with RMB223.1 million in the comparative period in 2015. The decrease is primarily due to the continued industry-wide decline in bandwidth prices and lower revenue contribution from Aipu, which is undergoing a business optimization process.
GROSS PROFIT: Gross profit for the second quarter of 2016 was RMB172.9 million (US$26.0 million), compared with RMB204.0 million in the comparative period in 2015. Gross margin for the second quarter of 2016 was 19.0%, compared with 23.5% in the comparative period in 2015. The decrease in gross margin was primarily due to continued weakness in the MNS business.
Adjusted gross profit, which excludes share-based compensation expenses and amortization of intangible assets derived from acquisitions, was RMB200.8 million (US$30.2 million) in the second quarter of 2016, compared with RMB245.7 million in the comparative period in 2015. Adjusted gross margin was 22.0% in the second quarter of 2016, compared with 28.3% in the comparative period in 2015.
OPERATING EXPENSES: Total operating expenses increased to RMB300.5 million (US$45.2 million) in the second quarter of 2016 from RMB293.6 million in the comparative period in 2015. Adjusted operating expenses, which exclude share-based compensation expenses and changes in the fair value of contingent purchase consideration payable, increased to RMB313.4 million (US$47.2million) from RMB209.5 million in the comparative period in 2015. As a percentage of net revenues, adjusted operating expenses were 34.4%, compared with 24.2% in the comparative period in 2015 and 25.5% in the first quarter of 2016.
Sales and marketing expenses increased by 7.0% to RMB83.5 million (US$12.6 million) in the second quarter of 2016 from RMB78.0 million in the comparative period in 2015.
General and administrative expenses increased by 19.5% to RMB199.4 million (US$30.0 million) in the second quarter of 2016 from RMB166.9 million in the comparative period in 2015, primarily due to an one-time bad debt provision and higher depreciation expense.
Research and development expenses increased by 2.9% to RMB33.0 million (US$5.0 million) in the second quarter of 2016 from RMB32.1 million in the comparative period in 2015.
Changes in the fair value of contingent purchase consideration payable was a gain of RMB15.3 million (US$2.3 million) in the second quarter of 2016, compared with a loss of RMB16.6 million in the comparative period in 2015.
ADJUSTED EBITDA: Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of 2016 was RMB15.5 million (US$2.3 million), compared with RMB149.4 million in the comparative period in 2015. The decrease in adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to a combination of lower gross profit and an aggregate one-time expense of RMB69.9 million (US$10.5 million), which included a change of bonus policy and accrual of bad debt provision. Adjusted EBITDA margin for the second quarter of 2016 was 1.7% compared with 17.2% in the comparative period in 2015 and 12.6% in the first quarter of 2016. Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of 2016 excludes a reversal of share-based compensation expenses of RMB8.7 million (US$1.3 million) and changes in the fair value of contingent purchase consideration payable which was a gain of RMB15.3 million (US$2.3 million).
Under the terms and conditions governing the Companys 6.875% Bonds due 2017 (the Bonds), the Company is required to maintain a ratio of Adjusted EBITDA to Consolidated Interest Expense of 2.75:1 or higher for the six month period ended June 30, 2016. As a result of the decrease in Adjusted EBITDA, the Company will not be able to meet this requirement. However, as mentioned above, the decrease in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily attributable to non-recurring factors and one-time expenses, the effect of which the Company believes to be temporary. Notwithstanding the above, the Company intends to amend the offer to purchase announced on August 1, 2016 to include a consent solicitation for a waiver from the requirement to meet certain financial ratios under the Bonds for the period ended June 30, 2016. The Company intends to fund the repurchase of the Bonds and consent fee, if any, with cash on hand and it currently has sufficient cash to repurchase or redeem the outstanding Bonds. Details of the amended offer to purchase and consent solicitation will be announced at a later date.
NET PROFIT/LOSS: Net loss for the second quarter of 2016 was RMB123.8 million (US$18.6 million), compared with a net loss of RMB141.8 million in the comparative period in 2015.
Adjusted net loss for the second quarter of 2016 was RMB108.9 million (US$16.4 million) compared with an adjusted net loss of RMB16.0 million in the comparative period in 2015. Adjusted net loss in the second quarter of 2016 excludes a reversal of share-based compensation expenses of RMB8.7 million (US$1.3 million), amortization of intangible assets derived from acquisitions of RMB39.0 million (US$5.9 million), changes in the fair value of contingent purchase consideration payable which was a gain of RMB15.3 million (US$2.3 million) in aggregate. Adjusted net margin in the second quarter of 2016 was negative 12.0%, compared with negative 1.8% in the comparative period in 2015 and negative 8.6% in the first quarter of 2016.
LOSS PER SHARE: Diluted loss per ordinary share for the second quarter of 2016 was RMB0.22, which represents the equivalent of RMB1.32 (US$0.20) per American Depositary Share (ADS). Each ADS represents six ordinary shares. Adjusted diluted loss per share for the second quarter of 2016 was RMB0.19, which represents the equivalent of RMB1.14 (US$0.17) per ADS. Adjusted loss per share is calculated using adjusted net loss as discussed above divided by the weighted average number of shares.
As of June 30, 2016, the Company had a total of 683.1 million ordinary shares outstanding, or equivalent of 113.9 million ADSs.
BALANCE SHEET: As of June 30, 2016, the Companys cash and cash equivalents and short-term investment were RMB3.57 billion (US$537.2 million).
