ChinaCache International Holdings Ltd. Announces Fourth

BEIJING, March 27, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ChinaCache International Holdings Ltd. ("ChinaCache" or the "Company") (NASDAQ:CCIH), a leading total solutions provider of Internet content and application delivery services in China, today announced its unaudited condensed consolidated financial results for the fourth quarter and full fiscal year ended December 31, 2016.

“We achieved success in stabilizing our core business in the second half of the year, despite continued challenges from HPCC platform issues in the first half of 2016. During the third and fourth quarters of 2016, we improved the performance of our CDN platforms, launched our Internet exchange business, began offering total solution products, and reorganized the Company for better efficiency,” said Mr. Song Wang, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of ChinaCache. “In particular, we established several Internet exchange centers in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, and are planning on more expansions in other major cities in China. These are expected to become integral to our total solution offering. In addition to our R&D efforts in selected technologies, including big data analysis, cloud exchange platforms and CDNs for the IoT industry, we also continued to improve our HPCC platform and upgrade our network hardware. Our turnaround initiatives are well underway, and we ended the year with full year 2016 net revenues of RMB1.05 billion, meeting our previous guidance.”

“Our strategy is to capitalize on our strengths by integrating our resources to provide a unique, three-layer structured network total solution package that clearly distinguishes ChinaCache as the provider of choice,” said Mr. Song Wang. “Combined with our well diversified products and strong customer relationships, this strategy will enable ChinaCache to compete favorably in our designated markets. Our recent cooperation with PacketZoom, the Silicon Valley-based leading mobile acceleration technology provider, further attests to the markets’ recognition of our compelling value proposition built over fifteen years of proven experience. We anticipate 2017 to be a year of gradual recovery and development,” Mr. Wang continued.

“Finally, I’d like to take this opportunity to announce the hiring of Ms. Cynthia Jinhong Meng as Chief Strategy Officer and senior VP at ChinaCache. We believe Ms. Meng’s experience and expertise strongly compliments our management team and will add value to the company’s strategic initiatives,” concluded Mr. Wang.

Ms. Meng has 18 years of TMT industry experience in equity research and strategy consulting for Chinese and global TMT companies. Prior to joining ChinaCache, she worked for Jefferies and BofA Merrill Lynch as head of the TMT research team and led the coverage of Chinese technology, Internet and telecom companies. She received an MBA from the Kellogg Graduate School of Management at Northwestern University and completed executive education at Stanford GSB.

*Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In evaluating its business, ChinaCache considers and uses the following non-GAAP measures defined as non-GAAP financial measures by the SEC as supplemental measures to review and assess its operating performance: non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP sales and marketing expenses, non-GAAP general and administrative expenses, non-GAAP research and development expenses, non-GAAP operating income (loss), adjusted net income (loss) (non-GAAP), EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP). 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 U.S. GAAP. For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures, please see the table captioned "Reconciliations of Non-GAAP to GAAP Financial Measures" set forth at the end of this press release.

To present non-GAAP sales and marketing expenses, non-GAAP general and administrative expenses and non-GAAP research and development expenses, the Company excludes share-based compensation expense.

To present non-GAAP operating income (loss), the Company excludes share-based compensation expense, transaction tax on assets transfer and impairment of long term investments.

The Company defines adjusted net income (loss) as net income (loss) before share-based compensation expense, foreign exchange gain (loss), transaction tax on assets transfer, impairment of long term investments and penalties on uncertain tax positions.

The Company uses EBITDA to assist in reconciliation to adjusted EBITDA. The Company defines EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest expense, interest income, income tax expense and penalties on uncertain tax positions and depreciation and amortization. The Company defines adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA before share-based compensation expense, foreign exchange gain (loss), transaction tax on assets transfer and impairment of long term investments that the Company does not consider reflective of its ongoing operations. The Company believes that the use of adjusted EBITDA facilitates investors' use of operating performance comparisons from period to period and company to company by backing out potential differences caused by variations in items such as capital structure (affecting relative interest expense and share-based compensation expense), the book amortization of intangibles (affecting relative amortization expense), the age and book value of facilities and equipment (affecting relative depreciation expense) and other non-cash or non-recurrent expenses. The Company also presents adjusted EBITDA because it believes it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties as a measure of the financial performance of companies in its industry.

Those non-GAAP financial measures are not defined under U.S. GAAP and are not measures presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Those non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and when assessing the Company's operating performance, investors should not consider them in isolation, or as a substitute for net income or other consolidated income statement data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Some of these limitations include, but are not limited to:

Adjusted net income, EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the Company's cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
They do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, the Company's working capital needs;
They do not reflect the interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on the Company's debt;
They do not reflect income taxes or the cash requirements for any tax payments;
Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized often will have to be replaced in the future, and adjusted net income, EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA do not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements;
While share-based compensation is a component of cost of revenues and operating expenses, the impact on the Company's financial statements compared to other companies can vary significantly due to such factors as assumed life of the options and assumed volatility of the Company's ordinary shares; and
Other companies may calculate adjusted net income, EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA differently than the Company does, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.
