Operating Metrics as of December 31, 2015
As a reminder, beginning in the third quarter of 2014, the Company began presenting the operating metrics of average monthly active user accounts ("MAUs") as redefined to include many emerging businesses previously not included in the Company's user account metrics. As such, the MAUs presented herein should only be compared to the third quarter of 2014 and forward and not be compared to operating metrics previously reported in historical periods because there is not a way to accurately compare such results. The MAUs for the period presented herein and going forward are expected to be better aligned with the key underlying trends of a mobile internet platform company focused on driving mobile consumer traffic and engagement that can be monetized. The MAU statistics do not include the users addressed by the installation of the Company's advertising SDK into third-party applications. These indirect users generate impressions and search traffic that the Company can monetize outside of the user accounts generated directly by the Company's own portfolio of products and applications.
Average Monthly Active User Accounts as of December 31, 2015: 198.2 million
"We are pleased with the performance of our businesses during 2015," said Mr. Zemin Xu, Chief Executive Officer of NQ Mobile. "We made progress in our goals to divest and monetize certain assets while at the same time focusing on a core set of consumer businesses going forward."
"The performance of the MVAS segment in the fourth quarter provides compelling evidence of the future of our consumer and entertainment businesses," said Mr. Roland Wu, Chief Financial Officer of NQ Mobile. "Our strategy is to divest and monetize certain assets, while increasing our balance sheet and positioning our company to both increase value to shareholders while also investing in the future of our business. We are well on our way."
Fourth Quarter 2015 Results
Revenues
Net revenues in the fourth quarter of 2015 increased 42.1% year-over-year to $127.5 million from $89.7 million in the same period in 2014.
Mobile value added service revenues increased 110.5% year-over-year to $51.4 million from $24.4 million in the same period in 2014. The increase in mobile value added service revenue was primarily attributable to the growth in mobile gaming revenues and live mobile social video platform revenues. The increase in mobile gaming revenues was primarily the result of the continuing expansion of FL Mobile's business in both domestic and overseas markets, which grew over 129.7% compared with the same period in 2014. The significant increase in live mobile social video platform revenues was driven by the rapid growth of Showself's business in our live video platforms, which was up 557.2% compared to the same period in 2014. The strong growth in NQ Mobile's live mobile social video platform and mobile gaming revenues was offset by a year-over-year decrease in consumer mobile security revenues which was mainly due to the fact that the Company has been moving its focus away from premium mobile security services and focusing more on mobile applications and services.
Advertising revenues increased 7.6% year-over-year to $22.0 million from $20.4 million in the same period in 2014. The increase was mainly due to the continued expansion of our advertising networks and the monetization through advertising and successful third party application referrals.
Enterprise mobility revenues increased 18.5% year-over-year to $52.1 million from $44.0 million in the same period in 2014. This increase is mainly due to continuing strong growth of hardware sales as well as an increase in software sales.
Other revenues increased 131.2% year-over-year to $2.0 million from $0.9 million in the same period in 2014. Other revenues are generated primarily by providing technical contract services to third parties and fluctuate as such business is driven by individual projects.
Cost of Revenues
Cost of revenues in the fourth quarter of 2015 increased 66.2% year-over-year to $104.9 million from $63.1 million in the same period in 2014. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to higher cost of products sold within the enterprise mobility segment, as well as higher customer acquisition costs and revenue sharing costs, incurred mainly for the Company's mobile game business and live mobile social video platform business, which was in line with the increase in corresponding revenue from these businesses.
Gross Profit and Gross Margin
Gross profit in the fourth quarter of 2015 decreased 15.1% to $22.6 million from $26.5 million in the same period in 2014. Gross margin, or gross profit as a percentage of net revenues, was 17.7% in the fourth quarter of 2015, compared with 29.6% in the same period in 2014.
Operating Expenses
Total operating expenses in the fourth quarter of 2015 decreased 11.3% year-over-year to $41.2 million from $46.5 million in the same period in 2014. Non-GAAP operating expenses, which exclude share-based compensation, the expenses incurred for the handling of short seller allegations and the amortization of intangible assets arising from acquisitions increased 52.6% year-over-year to $36.0 million from $23.6 million in the same period in 2014.
Selling and marketing expenses in the fourth quarter of 2015 decreased 6.5% year-over-year to $6.2 million from $6.6 million in the same period in 2014. Non-GAAP selling and marketing expenses, which exclude share-based compensation decreased 2.2% year-over-year to $6.3 million from $6.4 million in the same period in 2014. The year-over-year decrease resulted from the decrease in promotional activities, as well as reduced expenditures in our consumer security business.
General and administrative expenses in the fourth quarter of 2015 decreased 13.3% year-over-year to $27.2 million from $31.4 million in the same period in 2014. Non-GAAP general and administrative expenses, which exclude share-based compensation, the expenses incurred for the handling of short seller allegations and amortization of intangible assets arising from acquisitions, increased 150.9% year-over-year to $22.1 million, up from $8.8 million in the same period in 2014. The year-over-year increase was mainly due to an increase in the provision for doubtful accounts based on management's assessment at the end of the period.
Research and development expenses in the fourth quarter of 2015 decreased 7.1% year-over-year to $7.8 million from $8.4 million in the same period in 2014. Non-GAAP research and development expenses, which exclude share-based compensation and amortization of intangible assets arising from acquisitions, decreased 9.1% to $7.6 million from $8.3 million in the same period in 2014. The year-over-year decrease was primarily due to reduced product development expenses mainly from our consumer security business.
Share-based compensation expenses
Share-based compensation expenses, which were allocated to related operating cost and expenses line items, amounted to $4.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2015, compared to $19.3 million in the corresponding period in 2014.

Non-GAAP operating margin, or non-GAAP income from operations as a percentage of net revenues, was -8.5% in the fourth quarter of 2015, compared with 5.6% in the same quarter in 2014.
Foreign Exchange Gain, Interest Expenses and Other Income
Foreign exchange loss was $0.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2015, compared with a gain of $0.5 million in the same quarter of the previous year, which was affected by fluctuations in the foreign exchange rates.

Interest expenses were primarily derived from interest expense related to convertible debts, offset by the interest income from certain term deposits.

Fiscal Year 2015 Results
Revenues
Net revenues for the fiscal year 2015 increased 22.4% year-over-year to $406.7 million from $332.3 million in 2014.
Mobile value added service revenues for the fiscal year 2015 increased 31.6% year-over-year to $139.6 million from $106.1 million in 2014. The increase in mobile value added service revenues was primarily attributable to the growth in mobile gaming revenues and live mobile social video platform revenues. The increase in mobile gaming revenues primarily resulted from the continuing expansion of FL Mobile's business in both domestic and overseas markets, which grew 66.2% compared to the previous year. The significant increase in live mobile social video platform revenues was driven by the rapid growth of the business of Showself, which was up 951.6% compared to the previous year. The strong growth in NQ Mobile's live mobile social video platform revenues and mobile gaming was offset by a decrease in consumer mobile security revenues which was mainly due to the Company moving its focus away from premium mobile security services and focusing on mobile applications and services.
Advertising revenues for the fiscal year 2015 decreased 1.6% year-over-year to $71.7 million from $72.9 million in 2014. This was mainly due to slower smartphone sales and shipments which impacted our advertising network revenues for the fiscal year.
Enterprise mobility revenues for the fiscal year 2015 increased 27.8% year-over-year to $190.0 million from $148.7 million in 2014. The increase was due to stronger hardware and software sales.
Other revenues for the fiscal year 2015 increased 15.3% year-over-year to $5.4 million from $4.6 million in 2014. Other revenues are generated primarily by providing technical contract services to third parties and fluctuate as such business is driven by individual projects.
Cost of Revenues
Cost of revenues for the fiscal year 2015 increased 40.9% year-over-year to $319.4 million from $226.7 million in 2014. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to higher cost of products sold within the enterprise mobility segment, as well as higher customer acquisition costs and revenue sharing costs, incurred mainly for the Company's mobile game business and live mobile social video platform business.
Gross Profit and Gross Margin
Gross profit for the fiscal year 2015 decreased 17.3% to $87.3 million from $105.7 million in 2014. Gross margin, or gross profit as a percentage of net revenues, was 21.5% for the fiscal year 2015, compared with 31.8% in 2014. The primary reason for the decline in gross profit and gross margin is the free charge of mobile security services in domestic markets and higher customer acquisition costs and revenue sharing costs, incurred mainly for the Company's mobile game business and live mobile social video platform business.
Operating Expenses
Total operating expenses for the fiscal year 2015 decreased 35.0% year-over-year to $121.2 million from $186.6 million in 2014. Non-GAAP operating expenses, which exclude share-based compensation expenses, expenses incurred for the handling of short seller allegations, and the amortization of intangible assets arising from acquisitions, increased 12.7% year-over year to $101.3 million from $89.9 million in 2014.
Selling and marketing expenses for the fiscal year 2015 decreased 10.7% year-over-year to $26.8 million from $30.0 million in 2014. Non-GAAP selling and marketing expenses for the fiscal year 2015, which exclude share-based compensation, decreased 8.6% year-over-year to $26.1 million from $28.5 million in 2014. This was primarily due to the decrease in promotional activities, as well as reduced expenditures particularly within our consumer security business.
General and administrative expenses for the fiscal year 2015 decreased 50.0% year-over-year to $65.5 million from $131.0 million in 2014. Non-GAAP general and administrative expenses for the fiscal year 2015, which exclude share-based compensation, the expenses incurred for the handling of short seller allegations and the amortization of intangible assets arising from acquisitions, increased 26.8% year-over-year to $46.3 million from $36.5 million in 2014. The increase was primarily due to an increase in the provision for doubtful accounts based on management assessment at the end of the period.
Research and development expenses for the fiscal year 2015 increased 13.1% year-over-year to $29.0 million from $25.7 million in 2014. Non-GAAP research and development expenses for the fiscal year 2015, which exclude share-based compensation and the amortization of intangible assets arising from acquisitions, increased 16.6% to $29.0 million from $24.9 million in 2014. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to higher staff costs associated with headcount growth mainly in our enterprise mobility business.
Share-based compensation expenses
Share-based compensation expenses, which were allocated to related operating cost and expenses line items, decreased 80.3% year-over-year to $16.6 million from $83.8 million in 2014. The decrease in share-based compensation expenses was mainly due to less performance-based share options granted in relation to the Company's acquisitions in 2015 compared with that in 2014.
Loss/Income from Operations and Operating Margin
Loss from operations for the fiscal year 2015 was $33.9 million, compared with an operating loss of $81.0 million in fiscal year 2014.
Non-GAAP income from operations for the fiscal year 2015, which excludes share-based compensation, expenses incurred for the handling of short seller allegations and intangible assets arising from acquisitions, decreased year-over-year to a loss of $6.0 million from Non-GAAP income from operations of $23.2 million in 2014. Non-GAAP operating margin, or non-GAAP income from operations a percentage of net revenues, was -1.5% for the fiscal year 2015, compared with 7.0% in 2014. The decrease in non-GAAP operating income was mainly due to the decline in gross margin, which was affected by the increase in cost of revenues as highlighted above in the respective section on cost of revenues.
Foreign Exchange Loss, Interest Expenses/Income
Foreign exchange loss was $1.7 million for the fiscal year 2015, compared with a loss of $0.4 million in 2014. The loss in foreign exchange was primarily attributable to the fluctuation in foreign exchange rates. Interest expenses were $4.7 million for the fiscal year 2015, compared with $5.4 million in 2014. Interest expenses were primarily derived from interest expense related to convertible debts, offset by the interest income from certain term deposits.

In a press release issued on February 2, 2016, the Company announced that it had appointed Mr. Justin Chen as its President and General Counsel effective as of February 2, 2016. The appointment of Mr. Chen, former independent director, to President and General Counsel necessitated a number of other changes to the Company's board of directors (the "Board"). While Mr. Justin Chen remains as a director of the Board, he has resigned from his positions as a member of each of the audit committee, compensation committee and corporate governance and nominating committee of the Board. To fill in the vacancies, the Company has appointed Dr. Ethan Hu as an independent director, the Chair of the audit committee and a member of each of the compensation committee and the corporate governance and nominating committee of the Board, effective as of February 2, 2016.

("Beijing Tianya") to Tack Fiori International Group ("Tack Fiori"). The Proposed Divestment was terminated upon mutual agreement between NQ Mobile and Tack Fiori. In the course of reviewing the draft announcement of the Proposed Divestment, The Stock Exchange of Honk Kong Limited took the view that the Proposed Divestment would constitute a reverse takeover and would be treated as if it were a new listing application. In view of the tremendous cost and time expected to be incurred for complying with such expanded listing requirements, both NQ Mobile and Tack Fiori considered that it is beneficial to terminate the Proposed Divestment and relevant agreements.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement the Company's financial results prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"), NQ Mobile's management uses non-GAAP measures of cost of revenues, operating expenses, income from operations and net income attributable to NQ Mobile, which are adjusted from results based on GAAP to exclude share-based compensation expenses, expenses related to the handling of short seller allegations and interest expenses related to convertible debts. The Company also uses non-GAAP fully diluted earnings per ADS, which is the non-GAAP net income attributable to common shareholders divided by weighted average number of diluted ADS.
The Company's non-GAAP financial information is provided as additional information to help the Company's investors compare business trends among different reporting periods on a consistent basis and to enhance investors' overall understanding of the historical and current financial performance of the Company's continuing operations and its prospects for the future. The Company's non-GAAP financial information should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results. In addition, the Company's calculation of this non-GAAP financial information may be different from the calculation used by other companies, and therefore comparability may be limited.
The non-GAAP financial measures are provided to enhance investors' overall understanding of NQ Mobile's current financial performance and prospects for the future. A limitation of using non-GAAP cost of revenues, operating expenses, income from operations and net income attributable to NQ Mobile, excluding share-based compensation expenses, expenses related to the handling short seller allegations and interest expenses related to convertible debts, are that these items has been and may continue to be a significant expense in the Company's business for the foreseeable future. In order to mitigate these limitations the Company has provided specific information regarding the GAAP amounts excluded from each non-GAAP measure. The accompanying tables include details on the reconciliation between GAAP financial measures that are most directly comparable to the non-GAAP financial measures the Company has presented.
