　　Financial Results

　　For the third quarter of 2007, SINA reported net revenues of $64.3 million, compared to $56.1 million in the same period last year and $59.8 million last quarter.

　　Advertising revenues for the third quarter of 2007 totaled $45.8 million, representing a 40% increase from the same period last year and an 11% increase from last quarter. Advertising revenues in China grew 41% year over year or 11% quarter over quarter to $44.9 million for the third quarter of 2007. Advertising revenues in the third quarter of 2007 represented 71% of total revenues, up from 58% in the same period last year and 69% in the previous quarter.

　　Non-advertising revenues for the third quarter of 2007 totaled $18.5 million, a 21% decrease from the same period last year and flat over the previous quarter. MVAS revenues dropped 24% year over year to $16.6 million in the third quarter of 2007. Revenues from SMS and IVR, which accounted for 74% of MVAS revenues in the third quarter of 2007, declined 32% year over year, mainly as a result of policy changes by mobile operators in China.

　　Gross margin for the third quarter of 2007 was 62%, down from 64% for the same period last year and same as the previous quarter. Advertising gross margin for the third quarter of 2007 was 64%, compared to 65% for the same period last year and 62% in the previous quarter. Non-GAAP advertising gross margin, which excludes stock-based compensation, for the third quarter of 2007 was 65%, compared to 67% in the same period last year and 63% in the previous quarter. The year over year decline in advertising gross margin was mainly due to higher costs associated with content, web production and bandwidth. The sequential increase in advertising gross margin was due to revenues growing faster than advertising cost of sales.

　　MVAS gross margin for the third quarter of 2007 was 56%, compared to 62% for the same period last year and 61% last quarter. The decline in MVAS gross margin was primarily due to lower MVAS revenues without a proportionate decrease in related content and channel costs.

　　Operating expenses for the third quarter of 2007 amounted to $24.7 million, a decline of 3% from the same period last year and an increase of 1% from last quarter. Non-GAAP operating expenses, which excluded stock-based compensation and amortization expense of intangible assets, for the third quarter of 2007 were $23.1 million, flat over the same period last year and increased 2% from the previous quarter. The sequential increase in operating expenses was primarily due to higher marketing expenses and professional service fees, partially offset by lower bad debt expenses.

　　Interest and other income for the third quarter of 2007 included a currency exchange gain of $0.9 million realized from converting cash in Renminbi to U.S. dollar through inter-company dividend distribution.

　　Net income for the third quarter of 2007 was $17.2 million, an increase of 60% from the same period last year and 19% from last quarter. Diluted net income per share for the third quarter of 2007 was $0.28, compared to $0.19 in the same period last year and $0.25 last quarter. Non-GAAP net income for the third quarter of 2007 was $19.1 million, an increase of 31% from the same period last year and 19% from the previous quarter. Non-GAAP diluted net income per share for the third quarter of 2007 was $0.32, compared to $0.25 in the same period last year and $0.27 last quarter.

　　As of September 30, 2007, SINA’s cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments amounted to $439.4 million, compared to $362.8 million as of December 31, 2006. Cash flow from operating activities for the third quarter of 2007 was $19.6 million.

　　Business Outlook

　　Stock-based compensation for the fourth quarter of 2007 is expected to be approximately $1.6 million, which excludes any new shares that may be granted.

　　Non-GAAP Measures

　　This release contains non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures, which are used as measures of the Company’s performance, should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, measures of the Company’s financial performance prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). The Company’s non-GAAP financial measures may be defined differently than similar terms used by other companies. Accordingly, care should be exercised in understanding how the Company defines its non-GAAP financial measures.

　　Reconciliations of the Company’s non-GAAP measures to the nearest GAAP measures are set forth in the section below titled “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP to GAAP Results.” These non-GAAP measures include non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP income from operations, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP diluted net income per share and non-GAAP advertising gross margin.

　　The Company’s management uses non-GAAP financial measures to gain an understanding of the Company’s comparative operating performance (when comparing such results with previous periods or forecasts) and future prospects. The Company’s non-GAAP financial measures exclude certain special items, including stock-based compensation charges, amortization of intangible assets, amortization of convertible debt issuance cost and gain and loss on the sale of business and investment, from its internal financial statements for purposes of its internal budgets. Non-GAAP financial measures are used by the Company’s management in their financial and operating decision-making, because management believes they reflect the Company’s ongoing business in a manner that allows meaningful period-to-period comparisons. The Company’s management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors and others in the following ways: 1) in understanding and evaluating the Company’s current operating performance and future prospects in the same manner as management does, if they so choose, and 2) in comparing in a consistent manner the Company’s current financial results with the Company’s past financial results. The Company’s management further believes the non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to both management and investors by excluding certain expenses, gains and losses (i) that are not expected to result in future cash payments or (ii) that are non-recurring in nature or may not be indicative of its core operating results and business outlook.

　　The Company’s management believes excluding stock-based compensation from its non-GAAP financial measures is useful for itself and investors as such expense will not result in future cash payment and is otherwise unrelated to the Company’s core operating results.

　　The Company’s management believes excluding the non-cash amortization expense of intangible assets resulting from business acquisitions from its non-GAAP financial measures of operating expenses, income from operations and net income and excluding the non-cash amortization expense of intangible assets resulting from equity-method investments from its non-GAAP financial measure of net income are useful for itself and investors because they enable a more meaningful comparison of the Company’s cash performance between reporting periods. In addition, such charges will not result in cash settlement in the future.

　　The Company’s management believes excluding non-cash amortization expense of issuance cost relating to convertible bonds from its non-GAAP financial measure of net income is useful for itself and investors as such expense does not have any impact on cash earnings.

　　The Company’s management believes excluding gains and losses on the sale of a business and investment from its non-GAAP financial measure of net income is useful for itself and investors because such gains and losses are not indicative of the Company’s core operating results.

　　The non-GAAP financial measures have limitations. They do not include all items of income and expense that affect the Company’s operations. Specifically, these non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, may not be comparable to non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies and, with respect to the non-GAAP financial measures that exclude certain items under GAAP, do not reflect any benefit that such items may confer to the Company. Management compensates for these limitations by also considering the Company’s financial results as determined in accordance with GAAP.
