Commenting on the financial results, Mr. Yinan Hu, chairman and chief executive officer of the Company, stated, “I am pleased to report that CNinsure continued to deliver solid financial results in 2010 with total net revenues and net income attributable to the Company’s shareholders growing 28.6% and 40.4%, respectively, and fully diluted EPS growing 31.6% to RMB 8.529, which exceeded the management target.

“During 2010, we continued our efforts to enhance our long-term competitiveness by further penetrating into the property and casualty (“P&C”) and life insurance markets, and launching initiatives to explore the insurance brokerage, e-commerce insurance, wealth management and consumer credit brokerage businesses. Going forward, the life insurance business, which has become a key growth driver for CNinsure benefiting from the strong market demand and growth potential, will remain a strategic focus for the Company. In the meantime, with telemarketing and online sales rapidly gaining popularity as a distribution channel for commodity type P&C insurance products, e-commerce insurance business will become a new strategic focus for us in the next few years. As such, we expect to make significant investment in IT infrastructure, call center and advertisement to develop our e-commerce insurance platform which we believe will enable us to directly reach a broader customer base.

“CNinsure received several awards in 2010, including the Insurance Intermediary of the Year for 2010 and a 2010 Financial Innovation Award. We are honored that after ten years’ of development, CNinsure has won the support and recognition of the regulatory body and its insurance partners, which has motivated us to strengthen our commitment in the insurance intermediary market. The management will reward their loyalty and support by presenting them a better and stronger CNinsure.”

Financial Results for the Fourth Quarter Ended December 31, 2010

Total net revenues for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2010 were RMB449.0 million (US$68.0 million), representing an increase of 26.3% from RMB355.5 million for the corresponding period of 2009. The increase was primarily driven by the significant growth of the life and P&C insurance businesses as a result of the increase in the number of sales agents.

Total operating costs and expenses were RMB316.4 million (US$47.9 million) for the fourth quarter of 2010, representing an increase of 29.0% from RMB245.3 million for the corresponding period of 2009.

Commissions and fees expenses were RMB212.2 million (US$32.2 million) for the fourth quarter of 2010, representing an increase of 19.8% from RMB177.2 million for the corresponding period of 2009. The increase was primarily due to sales growth and largely tracked the increase in net revenues from commissions and fees.

		IR-111

Selling expenses were RMB23.4 million (US$3.5 million) for the fourth quarter of 2010, representing an increase of 52.3% from RMB15.3 million for the corresponding period of 2009, primarily due to sales growth and an increase in expenses incurred in connection with the establishment of new outlets.

General and administrative expenses were RMB80.8 million (US$12.2 million) for the fourth quarter of 2010, representing an increase of 52.9% from RMB52.8 million for the corresponding period of 2009. The increase was primarily due to increases in the following non-cash items:

(1)		an increase of 49.8% in depreciation of fixed assets from RMB4.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2009 to RMB6.5 million (US$1.0 million) for the fourth quarter of 2010, largely as a result of the operation of the upgraded IT system in more affiliated entities in the fourth quarter of 2010;
(2)		an increase of 157.6% in amortization of intangible assets from RMB2.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2009 to RMB7.3 million (US$1.1 million) for the fourth quarter of 2010, largely as a result of the acquisitions we made in 2010;
(3)		a recognition of RMB4.6 million (US$0.7 million) impairment loss in respect of intangible assets for the fourth quarter of 2010; and
(4)		an increase of 298.9% in share-based compensation expenses from RMB1.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2009 to RMB5.9 million (US$0.9 million) for the fourth quarter of 2010, associated with the grant of options to various directors, officers and employees in February 2010.

As a result of the foregoing factors, income from operations was RMB132.7 million (US$20.1 million) for the fourth quarter of 2010, representing an increase of 20.4% from RMB110.2 million for the corresponding period of 2009. Operating margin was 29.5% for the fourth quarter of 2010, compared to 31.0% for the corresponding period of 2009.

In the fourth quarter of 2010, the Company acquired an additional 46% equity interest in Shenyang Fangda Insurance Agency Co., Ltd. (“Shenyang Fangda”), which increased the Company’s equity interest in Shenyang Fangda from 5% to 51%. As a result, the Company recognized RMB3.2 million (US$0.5 million) investment income, representing gains from re-measuring the 5% equity interests formerly held by the Company in Shenyang Fangda. At the same time, the Company recognized a RMB0.8 million (US$0.1 million) deferred income tax expense, which was included in income tax expense.

Interest income for the fourth quarter of 2010 was RMB7.2 million (US$1.1 million), representing an increase of 0.6% from RMB7.2 million for the corresponding period of 2009.

Income tax expense for the fourth quarter of 2010 was RMB24.5 million (US$3.7 million), representing a decrease of 13.6% from RMB28.3 million for the corresponding period of 2009. The effective income tax rate applicable to the Company was 17.1% for the fourth quarter of 2010, compared to 24.1% for the corresponding period of 2009. The decrease was primarily attributable to a tax holiday enjoyed by an affiliated subsidiary of the Company.

Net income attributable to the Company’s shareholders was RMB126.5 million (US$19.2 million) for the fourth quarter of 2010, representing an increase of 34.9% from RMB93.8 million for the corresponding period of 2009.
