Operating Highlights for the Fourth Fiscal Quarter Ended May 31, 2026
Michael Yu, New Oriental’s Executive Chairman, commented, “We are pleased to conclude the final quarter of fiscal year 2026 on a strong note, with continued healthy top line growth of 23.0%. Revenues from overseas test preparation and consulting business increased by approximately 3.6%. In addition, our domestic test preparation business targeting adults and university students grew by approximately 29.1% year over year. Our new educational business initiatives also gained meaningful traction, growing approximately 24.8% year over year. This quarter, our non-academic tutoring courses reached around 60 cities, attracting approximately 1,072,000 student enrollments, and our intelligent learning system and devices were adopted across around 60 cities, with approximately 326,000 active paid users. These results reflect the soundness of our core education strategy and our unwavering commitment to elevating teaching standards and product quality. The consistent growth we have achieved validates our long-term approach and demonstrates its capacity to generate sustainable value. Alongside our growth momentum, we have made significant strides in cost optimization and operational efficiency, advancing these initiatives into a new phase. Our newly established New Oriental Home – a comprehensive customer service platform integrated across all departments – has already served over 950,000 families across 69 cities by the end of this quarter. This infrastructure is designed to deepen customer loyalty and retention, unlock cross-selling potential, and maximize customer lifetime value, all while reducing customer acquisition and marketing costs. We remain steadfast in our commitment to strengthening our brand and delivering lasting value to both our customers and shareholders.”
Chenggang Zhou, New Oriental’s Chief Executive Officer, added, “This fiscal quarter, we continued to execute our strategy of disciplined capacity expansion – one that over the full year has demonstrated remarkable effectiveness in balancing revenue growth with operational efficiency. Equally important, AI has become a central organizational priority, and we have advanced its adoption with clear execution and measurable progress. We further enhanced our OMO teaching system and deepened AI integration across our education ecosystem – embedding AI into existing offerings, refining AI‑powered products, and deploying AI to boost operational efficiency and support for our teaching staff. Together, these efforts position us well for sustained long-term competitive advantage. For FY2026, East Buy continued to offer products under its “Three Highs” standards – safety, quality, and cost performance – backed by reliable service. It launched 11 new Douyin vertical accounts, expanding its channel matrix to 18, with coverage spanning food, fresh produce, nutrition, and more niche categories. It also upgraded its live streaming system and introduced talent recruitment initiatives, supplier summits, and user feedback mechanisms to strengthen its ecosystem. Looking ahead to FY2027, East Buy will expand offline experience stores via New Oriental’s learning centers, accelerate private label development, refine membership operations, and improve supply chain efficiency – all in service of driving sustainable long-term growth.”
Stephen Zhihui Yang, New Oriental’s Executive President and Chief Financial Officer, commented, “Despite one-time costs and expenses arising from our internal management restructuring this quarter, we still delivered year over year expansion in Non-GAAP operating margin. This achievement was primarily driven by enhanced operational efficiency, improved utilization within our educational business, and the solid top- and bottom-line performance of East Buy. For the quarter, Non-GAAP operating margin reached 7.2%, up by 60 basis points compared to the same period last fiscal year. For the full fiscal year 2026, Non-GAAP operating margin expanded by 170 basis points, from 11.3% to 13.0%. Looking ahead, we will continue to execute our cost and efficiency initiatives across key business lines in the coming new fiscal year. Building on the structural optimizations already in place, we aim to steadily reduce fixed costs, drive further operational efficiencies, and reinforce the foundation for sustainable, profitable growth.”

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, (gain)/loss from fair value change of investments, loss/(gain) from equity method investments, impairment of long-term investments and goodwill, loss/(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, loss/(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.
