a Non-GAAP EPS Figures exclude certain non-operating gains and losses as well as certain non-cash items. Non-GAAP information should not be viewed in isolation or as a substitute for reported, or GAAP information . For a more complete explanation of the company's definition of Non-GAAP please refer to its financial press releases. The GeoTeam® Non-GAAP figures may, from time to time, differ from company supplied figures. The GeoTeam® Non-GAAP figures apply a 25% and 36% tax rate for Chinese and United States companies respectively.

Comments and guidance remain strong. Unless there is an equity offering around the corner, we see no reason for the share weakness. Some investors may view a Chinese stock with a trailing P/E of 16 to be pricey. However, we believe that investors may gradually begin to become comfortable to assign these companies P/E's closer to 25.
