Mr. Josh Chen, Founder, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, stated, "We had an exciting second quarter, marked by the continued strong growth of our internet data center operations, the rapidly growing cloud and CDN businesses, as well as the expansion of our product and service offerings through strategic investment and acquisitions. We are marching forward with our shift to more self-built data centers, as we added close to 1,700 self-built cabinets, bringing the total number of cabinets in our self-built data centers to close to 11,500, or approximately 68% of total cabinets under management. In addition, being the first quarter operating on a fully commercial basis, both Windows Azure and Office365 have experienced tremendous growth, in terms of both revenue growth and new customer additions. Moreover, our strategic investment in Aipu will not only provide cost saving opportunities in bandwidth, but it will also allow us to expand our reach into regional last-mile access networks, further strengthening our position as a leading integrated internet infrastructure services provider."

Mr. Shang-Wen Hsiao, Chief Financial Officer of the Company, commented, "We are very proud of our operating performance this quarter as demonstrated by a record low hosting churn rate of 0.28% and our improving utilization rate, which reached 73.9% in the second quarter even as we added close to 1,900 cabinets. Equally pleasing was our financial results, which saw revenue increasing by 39.7% year over year, and adjusted EBITDA margin expansion to 20.1% in the second quarter. The continued strong top line growth and further improvement in profitability highlight the strong demand for our IDC, CDN and cloud services, as we continue to execute on our expansion plans. Supported by additional capital at a very attractive rate from our recent bond offering, we believe we are well-positioned to fund our data center build out, expand strategic assets, and capitalize on exciting developments in China's rapidly data center and cloud services markets.

REVENUES: Net revenues for the second quarter of 2014 increased by 39.7% to RMB658.0 million (US$106.1 million) from RMB471.1 million in the comparative period in 2013.

Net revenues from hosting and related services increased by 59.4% to RMB466.9 million (US$75.3 million) in the second quarter of 2014 from RMB293.0 million in the comparative period in 2013, primarily due to an increase in the total number of cabinets under management, an increase in demand for the Company's CDN services as well as the incremental contributions from MS cloud services. Net revenues from managed network services increased by 7.3% to RMB191.1 million (US$30.8 million) in the second quarter of 2014 from RMB178.1 million in the comparative period in 2013 driven by an increase in demand for our data transmission services.

GROSS PROFIT: Gross profit for the second quarter of 2014, increased by 46.7% to RMB180.6 million (US$29.1 million) from RMB123.1 million in the comparative period in 2013. Gross margin for the second quarter of 2014 was 27.4%, compared with 26.1% in the comparative period in 2013 and 27.4% in the first quarter of 2014. The increase in gross margin was primarily due to an increase in utilization rates and incremental revenue contributions from MS cloud services.

Adjusted gross profit, which excludes share-based compensation expenses and amortization of intangible assets derived from acquisitions, increased by 45.7% to RMB197.9 million (US$31.9 million) from RMB135.8 million in the comparative period in 2013. Adjusted gross margin increased to 30.1% in the second quarter of 2014 from 28.8% in the comparative period in 2013 and 29.2% in the first quarter of 2014.

OPERATING EXPENSES: Total operating expenses increased by 14.6% to RMB156.7 million (US$25.3 million) from RMB136.7 million in the comparative period in 2013. Adjusted operating expenses, which exclude share-based compensation expenses and the changes in the fair value of contingent purchase consideration payable, increased to RMB132.9 million (US$21.4 million) from RMB85.9 million in the comparative period in 2013. As a percentage of net revenue, adjusted operating expenses were 20.2%, compared with 18.2% in the comparative period in 2013 and 18.8% in the first quarter of 2014.

Sales and marketing expenses increased by 59.5% to RMB58.8 million (US$9.5 million) from RMB36.9 million in the comparative period in 2013, primarily due to expansion of the Company's sales and service personnel and larger accrued bonuses for sales and service personnel.

General and administrative expenses increased by 59.5% to RMB64.0 million (US$10.3 million) from RMB40.1 million in the comparative period in 2013, primarily due to increased headcount associated with the growth in the Company's overall business.

Change in the fair value of contingent purchase consideration payable was a loss of RMB8.8 million (US$1.4 million) in the second quarter of 2014, compared with a loss of RMB40.3 million in the comparative period in 2013. This non-cash loss was primarily due to an increase in the market value of the Company's shares, which resulted in an increase in the fair value of share-based contingent purchase considerations payable as of June 30, 2014 associated with the Company's past acquisitions.

ADJUSTED EBITDA: Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of 2014 increased by 51.3% to RMB132.0 million (US$21.3 million) from RMB87.2 million in the comparative period in 2013.

NET PROFIT/LOSS: Net loss for the second quarter of 2014 was RMB59.5 million (US$9.6 million), compared to a net loss of RMB42.3 million in the comparative period in 2013.

Adjusted net profit for the second quarter of 2014 increased by 23.2% to RMB23.2 million (US$3.7 million) from RMB18.8 million in the comparative period in 2013. Adjusted net profit in the second quarter of 2014 excludes share-based compensation expenses of RMB17.0 million (US$2.7 million), amortization of intangible assets derived from acquisitions of RMB15.4 million (US$2.5 million), changes in the fair value of contingent purchase consideration payable, and a one-time, non-cash loss on debt extinguishment of RMB41.6 million (US$6.7 million) in the aggregate. Adjusted net margin was 3.5%, compared to 4.0% in the comparative period in 2013 and 5.6% in the first quarter of 2014.

EARNING/LOSS PER SHARE: Diluted loss per ordinary share for the second quarter of 2014 was RMB0.16, which represents the equivalent of RMB0.96 (US$0.15) per American Depositary Share ("ADS"). Each ADS represents six ordinary shares. Adjusted diluted earnings per share for the second quarter of 2014 was RMB0.05, which represents the equivalent of RMB0.30 (US$0.05) per ADS. Adjusted earnings per share is calculated using adjusted net profit as discussed above divided by the weighted average number of shares.

As of June 30, 2014, the Company had a total of 399.0 million ordinary shares outstanding, or the equivalent of 66.5 million ADSs.

BALANCE SHEET: As of June 30, 2014, the Company's cash and cash equivalents and short-term investment were RMB3.2 billion (US$522.6 million).

Recent Developments

In August 2014, the Company and its affiliate announced that it has entered into definitive agreements to acquire from DYXnet Group the entire equity interest in Dermot Holdings Limited and its subsidiaries ("Dermot Entities") for a total consideration of up to RMB1.05 billion, consisting of cash and equity, subject to adjustments by performance metrics. Dermot Entities operate the Virtual Private Networks business unit within DYXnet Group and include without limitation to Diyixian.com Limited and Shenzhen Diyixian Telecom Company Limited. The transaction is expected to close in the third quarter of 2014.

In June 2014, the Company and its affiliate announced that it has entered into definitive agreements to invest in Sichuan Aipu Network Co., Ltd and its affiliates (collectively, the "Aipu Group") for a total consideration of approximately RMB750 million, and will own an approximately 50% ownership interest in Aipu Group and become its single largest shareholder. Other shareholders of the Aipu Group will have the option to sell their remaining interests in the Aipu Group to 21Vianet based on certain performance-based metrics over the next three years. The Aipu Group is one of the largest regional internet service providers with operations in 11 cities across China and primarily engages in providing last-mile wired broadband access and other value-added services to internet users.

Also in June 2014, the Company issued RMB2 billion in aggregate principal amount of RMB denominated bonds due 2017 at a coupon rate of 6.875% per annum (the "Bonds"). The bonds were offered outside the United States in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Company used part of the Bonds' proceeds to purchase, pursuant to a tender offer, a significant portion of the RMB denominated bonds due in March 2016 at a coupon rate of 7.875% per annum issued by the Company in March 2013, and to pay for the consent fee pursuant to the invitation to all holders of the 2016 Bonds to approve certain modifications to the terms and conditions of the 2016 Bonds. The Company intends to use the remaining balance of the Bonds' proceeds to add new data centers, fund acquisitions and for general corporate purposes.

Financial Outlook

For the third quarter of 2014, the Company expects net revenues to be in the range of RMB777 million to RMB813 million, representing approximately 55% growth year over year at the mid point. Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be in the range of RMB153 million to RMB170 million. For the full year 2014, the Company now expects net revenues to be in the range of RMB2.94 billion to RMB3.02 billion, representing approximately 52% growth over 2013 at the mid point. Adjusted EBITDA for the full year 2014 is expected to be in the range of RMB600 million to RMB630 million, representing approximately 68% growth over 2013 at the mid point. The increase in the full year 2014 outlook from our prior guidance primarily reflects the expected contributions from recently announced transactions. These forecasts reflect the Company's current and preliminary view, which is subject to change.
