Operating Highlights for the Fourth Fiscal Quarter Ended May 31, 202 5

Michael Yu, New Oriental's Executive Chairman, commented, "We are delighted to conclude the fiscal year 2025 with a healthy top line growth of 9.4% in this quarter. Total net revenues, excluding revenues generated from East Buy private label products and livestreaming business, increased by 18.7% year over year. Revenues from overseas test preparation and overseas study consulting businesses increased by approximately 14.6% and 8.2% year over year, respectively. In addition, the domestic test preparation business targeting adults and university students grew by approximately 17.0% year over year. Furthermore, our new educational business initiatives maintained strong momentum during this fiscal quarter, with revenue growth of 32.5% year over year. Notably, our non-academic tutoring courses were offered in around 60 cities, attracting approximately 918,000 student enrollments in this fiscal quarter. Simultaneously, our intelligent learning system and devices were adopted in around 60 cities, with approximately 255,000 active paid users in this fiscal quarter. Over the past year, we have gradually solidified our long-term development strategy. In the new fiscal year, we will intensify management efforts on our core educational business, with a priority on enhancing product capabilities and quality, as well as systematically developing our educational resources, and improving operational efficiency. We remain steadfast in our commitment to delivering exceptional service to our clients, enhancing our brand influence, and creating sustainable long-term value for shareholders."

Chenggang Zhou, New Oriental's Chief Executive Officer, added, "In this fiscal quarter, we continued to monitor our capacity expansion to ensure alignment with revenue growth and operating efficiency. At the same time, we focused on revamping our OMO (online-merge-offline) teaching system and invested in applying AI technologies across our education ecosystem. Recently, we launched a new generation of AI-powered Intelligent Learning Device and introduced an AI-driven Smart Study Solution. The integration of new technologies into our offline and online products has consistently strengthened our product capabilities. Additionally, we developed innovative technologies to support daily operations for teachers and staff, enhancing operational efficiency and service satisfaction. In this fiscal year, East Buy continued to invest in its 'healthy and high-quality' private label products strategy--enriching product categories, achieving blockbuster breakthroughs, and innovating on products, resulting in stable and widely applicable private label products that have become household staples and gained greater market recognition."

Stephen Zhihui Yang, New Oriental's Executive President and Chief Financial Officer, commented, "To better reflect New Oriental's core educational businesses, the following operating margin numbers for this fiscal quarter exclude the financial results of East Buy's private label products and livestreaming business. Our non-GAAP operating margin, excluding operating margin generated from East Buy private label products and livestreaming business for the quarter, was 6.5%, representing a year over year improvement of 410 basis points. Although we experienced a slowdown in revenue growth within our overseas-related businesses and invested in our newly-integrated tourism-related business during fiscal year 2025, our non-GAAP operating margin, excluding operating margin generated from East Buy private label products and livestreaming business for the full year, was 12.8%, representing a year over year improvement of 150 basis points. As we enter fiscal year 2026, we will continue to execute cost optimization and efficiency enhancement initiatives across all business lines, pursuing healthy and sustainable revenue growth and enhanced profitability."

Previous Share Repurchase Program

The Company's board of directors (the "Board") approved a Share Repurchase Program in July 2022, under which the Company was authorized to repurchase up to US$400 million of the Company's ADSs or common shares through the next twelve months. The Board further approved extending the effective time of the Share Repurchase Program to May 31, 2025, and increasing the aggregate value of shares that the Company was authorized to repurchase from US$400 million to US$700 million. As of May 31, 2025, the Share Repurchase Program had expired and the Company had repurchased an aggregate of approximately 14.5 million ADSs for approximately US$700 million from the open market under the Share Repurchase Program.

New Shareholder Return Plan

On July 29, 2025, the Board approved a three-year shareholder return plan, effective from the fiscal year 2026. Under this plan, no less than 50% of the Company's net income attributable to New Oriental for the preceding fiscal year will be dedicated to returning value to shareholders, including through dividend distribution and/or share repurchases. The Board will reevaluate this plan upon its expiration. For the fiscal year 2026, the Board will determine the implementation of this plan based on the net income attributable to New Oriental for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2025 in due course.

In establishing this plan, the Board considered the recent and anticipated growth of the private education industry, as well as the Company's own performance and growth strategies. Under this plan, the Board reserves discretion to determine the form, timing and amount of shareholder return measures in any fiscal year based on the Company's results of operations, capital requirements and other relevant factors.

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, 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; 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.
