CDC Games Provides Update on Key Performance Metrics for October

CDC Games, a business unit of CDC Corporation and pioneer of the "free-to-play, pay for merchandise” model for online games in China, today announced key performance metrics for certain of its commercially available games in China. Special Force, launched in June 2007 as the first free-to-play, pay for merchandise FPS (first person shooter) game in China, continued to show steady growth in all key categories during October. Compared to September 2007, key metrics for October 2007 were: Revenue growth of 37 percent, Growth in total registered users of 34 percent, now totaling more than 7.7 million, Growth in peak concurrent users (PCU) of 23 percent, and Growth in average concurrent users (ACU) of 27 percent. Average concurrent users across all the games in the CDC Games portfolio grew by approximately 12 percent to more than 200,000 in October 2007 compared to the month prior. Total registered users across the CDC Games portfolio now exceeds 119 million players. In addition to the strong growth of one of the company’s newest games, Yulgang, one of China’s most popular online games, now in its third year of commercial availability, posted steady growth figures for October as well. Average daily revenue grew by 2 percent compared to the prior month. PCU grew by 10 percent and ACU grew 20 percent. The return to improving performance metrics for Yulgang is attributed to the release of the v180 version of the game in August 2007, and the company’s active efforts to shut down pirate servers hosting the game. Working in conjunction with the Chinese government authorities, law enforcement agencies, as well as Internet operators, CDC Games believes that two-thirds of the pirate servers were successfully shut down during August and September. During October, the shutdown of pirate servers continued and CDC Games now believes that less than 10 percent of the pirate servers remain active. The company continues its efforts to eliminate the Pirate servers, including its leadership of the OGAAP (Online Games Alliance Against Piracy) initiative which has received strong endorsements and support from Chinese governmental agencies regulating the online gaming industry, as well as enthusiastic interest and participation of gaming and entertainment companies worldwide. "We are very happy to see Special Force growing so well and gaining momentum after just four months since we launched the game,” said Xiaowei Chen, Ph.D., president of CDC Games. This early momentum and the establishment of a loyal base of players is critical to the long-term success of any free-to-play game. We are also happy to see the return to growth for Yulgang. The daily average revenue for Yulgang during the first four days of November is up more than 50% compared to the daily average for the prior month. Clearly our efforts to combat pirate servers are having a positive effect. We will continue to shut down pirate servers, and although recovery will take time, the trend is encouraging. Additionally, we are making good progress in our negotiations with Mgame and feel confident we can reach an amicable settlement on Yulgang with our next step scheduled for this coming Tuesday with a meeting in Hong Kong.” About CDC Games CDC Games is one of the market leaders of online and mobile games in China with over 100 million registered users.
