Michael Yu, New Oriental’s Executive Chairman, commented, “We are very pleased to begin the fiscal year 2026 with a healthy top-line growth of 6.1%, surpassing the upper end of our expected range. Notably, revenues from overseas test preparation and overseas study consulting businesses increased by approximately 1.0% and 2.0% year over year, respectively. In addition, the domestic test preparation business targeting adults and university students grew by approximately 14.4% year over year. Our new educational business initiatives recorded a revenue growth of 15.3% year over year. Our non-academic tutoring courses were offered in around 60 cities, attracting approximately 530,000 student enrollments during the quarter. Concurrently, our intelligent learning system and devices were adopted in around 60 cities, with approximately 452,000 active paid users. As we move forward in the current fiscal year, we will maintain our strategic direction, continuing to execute our long-term development strategy with an unwavering focus on enhancing our core education business. Building on our ongoing efforts, we will prioritize further enhancement to product capabilities and quality, systematic development of educational resources, and operational efficiency improvements. Our commitment to delivering exceptional client service, elevating our brand influence, and creating sustainable long-term value for our shareholders remains steadfast. We are confident that our strategic initiatives and dedication to excellence will drive continued growth in the years to come.”

Chenggang Zhou, New Oriental’s Chief Executive Officer, added, “During this fiscal quarter, we maintained a disciplined approach to capacity expansion, ensuring alignment between revenue growth and operational efficiency. In parallel, we focused on enhancing our OMO (online-merge-offline) teaching system and invested in the integration of AI technologies across our education ecosystem. The successful introduction of our AI-powered Intelligent Learning Device and Smart Study Solution is an important step forward in our efforts to enhance the learning experience and better support our students. Encouraged by the positive initial feedback, we remain committed to continuously refining these products and further embedding AI across our offerings to strengthen our core capabilities. In addition to enhancing our educational offerings, we are also expanding the application of AI to streamline internal operations, driving efficiency gain and elevating support for our teaching staff and employees. In this fiscal quarter, East Buy continued to invest in its strategic ‘healthy and high-quality’ private label products initiative, focusing on enriching product categories, achieving breakthrough innovations, and developing stable and widely applicable products. As a result, its private label products have become household staples, garnering increased market recognition and delivering exceptional quality and value to its customers.”

Stephen Zhihui Yang, New Oriental’s Executive President and Chief Financial Officer, commented, “Despite the challenges posed by the continued slowdown in our overseas businesses, we delivered a year over year improvement in our Non-GAAP operating margin, driven by our relentless focus on cost optimization and operational efficiency enhancements. This is reflected in our quarterly Non-GAAP operating margin of 22.0%, up by 100 basis points compared to the same period last fiscal year. Building on this momentum, we will continue to exercise this discipline and extend our cost and efficiency initiatives across all business lines for the remainder of the fiscal year, positioning ourselves for more sustainable and profitable growth.”

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement New Oriental’s consolidated financial results presented in accordance with GAAP, New Oriental uses the following measures defined as non-GAAP financial measures by the SEC: net income excluding share-based compensation expenses, amortization of intangible assets resulting from business acquisitions, (gain)/loss from fair value change of investments, loss/(gain) from equity method investments, impairment of long-term investments and goodwill, gain on disposals of investments and others, as well as tax effects on non-GAAP adjustments; operating income excluding share-based compensation expenses, amortization of intangible assets resulting from business acquisitions, and impairment of goodwill; operating margin excluding share-based compensation expenses, amortization of intangible assets resulting from business acquisitions, and impairment of goodwill; and basic and diluted net income per ADS and per share excluding share-based compensation expenses, amortization of intangible assets resulting from business acquisitions, loss/(gain) from fair value change of investments, loss/(gain) from equity method investments, impairment of long-term investments and goodwill, gain on disposals of investments and others, as well as tax effects on non-GAAP adjustments. 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. For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures, please see the tables captioned “Reconciliations of non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP measures” set forth at the end of this release.

New Oriental believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding its performance and liquidity by excluding from each non-GAAP measure certain items that may not be indicative of its operating performance from a cash perspective. New Oriental 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 New Oriental’s historical performance and liquidity. New Oriental 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 these non-GAAP measures is that they exclude from each non-GAAP measure certain items that have been and will continue to be for the foreseeable future a significant recurring expense in its 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.
