CDC Corporation (NASDAQ: CHINA) closed at $2.66 Wednesday, trading 2,666,100 shares.
Company News- July 17, 2008: CDC Corporation Expects to Substantially Increase Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA in Second Half of 2008
CDC Corporation (NASDAQ: CHINA), a leading global enterprise software and new media company, earlier today announced it expects to achieve a substantial increase in adjusted net income (ANI) and adjusted EBITDA for the second half of 2008 compared to the first half of this year.
The second half improved outlook is primarily due to anticipated improvement throughout the company's operating metrics, as a result of CDC's recent cost reduction efforts. The company now believes it has a scalable business model with higher predictability of revenues. For example, examining the two major divisions of the Company:
* CDC Software, which currently comprises approximately 85-90 percent of CDC Corporation's revenues, anticipates that a large portion of its second half 2008 revenues will be derived from recurring sources such as: a.) maintenance revenues from CDC Software's 6,000 plus global customer base, which has consistently achieved retention rates of approximately 90 percent and which now makes up a revenue stream with an approximately $100 million per year run-rate; b.) Software services revenues that include upgrades, consulting, software implementations, as well as training services for both new and existing customers and; c.) finally, CDC Global Services, which is also over $100 million per year in revenues, and offers IT services to customers. Several of its customers tend to have longer-term engagements with the company.
* CDC Games has now delivered three consecutive quarters of sequential revenue growth. This division, with the vast majority of its revenues from China, has a diversified portfolio of awarding-winning and popular games that have a reasonably predictable track record of users' spending patterns. These games are primarily operated in the largest and fastest growing online games market in the world.
As recently announced, CDC Software has implemented cost reduction initiatives in the second quarter of 2008 that are expected to yield annual savings of approximately (U.S.) $15 million, making the total cost reductions undertaken over the last 12 months approximately (U.S.) $31 million annually. In addition, over the last six months, CDC Software has seen improvements in several operating metrics including utilization rates for software services professionals, as well as improvements in the company's sales pipeline. Also, CDC Games is showing a strong recovery and expects to launch several new games in the second half of this year. As a result of all these factors, CDC Corporation is optimistic about the second half of this year.
"After the recent management re-alignment and our filing to withdraw the planned initial public offerings for both CDC Games and CDC Software, we are now singularly focused on improving operational metrics and cash generation from the businesses," said Peter Yip, CEO of CDC Corporation. "Overall, CDC now has much lower corporate overhead and the improved second half guidance is also attributed to CDC Software's pipeline. In fact, I will be personally meeting with several key customers over the next several months to reinforce CDC Software's plans to stay ahead by continuing to serve as a strategic technology partner for its customer base by protecting their IT investments now and into the future. We plan to accomplish this by providing the solutions that will empower our customers to maximize productivity in this challenging environment of rising fuel, transportation and commodity costs.
"As a result of our proactive strategy, we believe we have built a strong financial foundation that will contribute to a healthy outlook for the second half of 2008, even if the economy further declines. With our renewed business focus which even if we assume a flat license revenue run rate similar to what we achieved in the first quarter of 2008, we feel confident we will improve upon our first half of 2008 profitability performance by a significant percentage during the second half of 2008. With all of these positive indicators, I feel very comfortable in providing this general guidance for the second half of 2008. We plan to provide a formal guidance range for revenues and adjusted EBITDA for the second half of 2008 when we formally announce Q2 results in August."

Google Sued for 'Parked' Site Fraud: Kabateck Brown Kellner, LLP - Zibb.com
LOS ANGELES, July 17, 2008 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ --
Google is defrauding its advertising customers by charging them for clicks from "parked" websites that Google knows are worthless, according to a federal class action lawsuit filed today by Kabateck Brown Kellner, LLP in U.S. District Court, Northern District of California in San Jose.
Google places ads on Google.com and on third-party websites. Its customers are charged whenever their ad is "clicked." Ads appear on third-party websites based on keywords that the customer selects. For example, an ad for a hardware store may appear on a website about home improvement projects.
The "parked" sites at issue in the suit, however, contain no content or useful information -- just ads. The sole purpose of those sites is to generate ad revenue for Google and the site owner, while not providing any benefit to the ad customer.
"The supposed advantage of Google advertising is that it's targeted," said Brian Kabateck, Managing Partner of Kabateck Brown Kellner. "If Google is simply placing ads anywhere they can make a buck, one has to seriously question the value of their advertising program."
Kabateck recently won a multi-million dollar settlement from Yahoo! and was part of an earlier $90 million settlement from Google on behalf of advertisers who were victimized by "click fraud" to which the company turned a blind eye. He is also currently representing Google customers whose ads were placed on third-party sites when they only wanted their ads to appear on Google.com.
According to the lawsuit filed today, Google did not disclose to its advertisers the web addresses of the parked domains where their ads were placed and clicked on, leaving customers with no ability to evaluate, much less dispute, the validity of the clicks for which they were charged. Google failed to provide this information despite the fact that ads placed on parked domains are a constant source of invalid clicks.
Google customers' ads are placed on parked domains automatically. Only after registering, and through a complicated process, can customers "opt out" and exclude their ads from being placed on parked domains.
The plaintiff in this case was charged for several clicks originating from parked domains, with no additional information given by Google as to the nature or specific source of these clicks beyond the designation "parked domain."
The plaintiff examined charges to his account from unknown domains labeled only as "parked domains." Upon further inspection, the plaintiff realized that he was paying for traffic originating from parked domains that had little relation to his business.
Kabateck Brown Kellner, LLP is one of the nation's foremost consumer law firms. Its clients have won more than $750 million against Coca Cola, Farmers Insurance, Eli Lilly and other major corporations. As a plaintiff's-only firm, Kabateck Brown Kellner is always on the consumers' side.

Cemaphore Systems Launches Public Beta2: 'MailShadow for Google Apps' - Zibb.com
PHILADELPHIA, Jul 17, 2008 (ASCRIBE NEWS via COMTEX) --
Cemaphore Systems announced availability of the Beta2 release of MailShadow for Google Apps (MailShadowG), allowing organizations to move some or potentially all of their e-mail continuity and disaster recovery into the cloud, with zero infrastructure.
To date, more than 3,000 organizations from 98 countries around the world have signed up for the Beta program. The sign ups range from small to large organizations, including Global 500 companies that are evaluating MailShadowG. Beta2 participants can test MailShadowG for free with the option to purchase a license per user per year during Beta2.
Following the Beta2 release, general availability is expected in Q3 2008. While Cemaphore limited the participation and distribution of Beta1, the Beta2 release is open to all who submit an application.
MailShadowG is a Microsoft Outlook add-in that provides real-time synchronization of email, calendars and contacts between Outlook, Exchange and Gmail, contacts and Google Calendar. MailShadowG provides consumers, small businesses and enterprises with "Continuity in the Cloud":
- Bi-directional, real-time synchronization between Exchange and Google: MailShadow provides bi-directional, real-time synchronization of the key messaging data types: E-mail, Calendar and Contacts.
- MailShadowG provides e-mail continuity when Exchange is unavailable: Users can send and receive e-mail from Outlook through Gmail when their Exchange service is unavailable.
- MailShadowG provides disconnected access to Gmail, contacts and Google Calendar: MailShadowG caches Google message content in Outlook for offline operations.
- Portability of messaging content: MailShadowG enables safe, sound migration from Exchange to Google or Google to Exchange.
- Rapid deployment for individuals and IT departments: MailShadowG is a single user Outlook Add-in that installs in 5 minutes with message content protection commencing immediately.
"Cloud computing is the next step in terms of enabling business continuity for both the enterprise and the mobile professional," said Philippe Winthrop, Research Director for Strategy Analytics. "Solutions, such as MailShadowG, which offer the ability to access your e-mail, calendar and contacts (some of the most important data a professional uses) from any system, including a mobile device, can significantly improve the flexibility and ultimate productivity of a mobile worker."
"With more than six years' experience in the e-mail continuity and disaster recovery business, we are extremely proud to be leading the charge in moving the industry to a Software as a Service (SaaS) model that will allow SMBs, consumers, and enterprises of all sizes to provide e-mail continuity in the cloud to their users," said Tyrone Pike, Cemaphore President and CEO. "This is a critical milestone, and we intend to continue to develop additional cloud-based messaging services."
