Bona Film Group Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2011 Financial Results
BEIJING, March 1, 2012 Bona Film Group Limited, (Bona or the Company) (Nasdaq: BONA), a leading film distributor and vertically integrated film company in China, today announced its unaudited financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2011.
Fourth Quarter 2011 Financial Highlights
· Fourth quarter 2011 net revenues were US$52.6 million, an increase of 195.2% year over year from US$17.8 million in the fourth quarter 2010
· Fourth quarter 2011 gross margin was 39.7%, compared to 48.4% in the fourth quarter 2010
· Fourth quarter 2011 operating income was US$3.4 million, an increase of 5.5% year over year from US$3.2 million in the fourth quarter 2010
· Fourth quarter 2011 net income was US$5.7 million, an increase of 81.7% year over year compared to US$3.1 million in the fourth quarter 2010
· Fourth quarter 2011 non-GAAP net income(1) was US$6.2 million, an increase of 82.9% year over year compared to US$3.4 million in the fourth quarter 2010
Full Year 2011 Financial Highlights
· Full year 2011 net revenues increased 138.9% year over year to US$126.2 million from US$52.8 million for the full year 2010
· Full year 2011 gross margin was 47.3%, compared to 49.8% for the full year 2010
· Full year 2011 operating income increased 38.4% year over year to US$12.7 million from US$9.2 million for the full year 2010
· Full year 2011 net income was US$14.6 million, compared to net loss of US$4.2 million for the full year 2010
· Full year 2011 non-GAAP net income increased 69.4% year over year to US$18.2 million from US$10.8 million for the full year 2010
We finished the year on a strong note as we exceeded our 2011 bottom-line guidance, reporting a 69% year-over-year increase in our non-GAAP net income, said Bona Founder, Chairman and CEO Yu Dong. Our highly successful blockbuster Flying Swords of Dragon Gate achieved domestic box office receipts of over RMB550 million to become the fourth most successful domestic film in the history of Chinese film. For the full year 2011, we distributed or invested in 15 films in total and attained the second largest share of the distribution market, based on domestic box office receipts. Additionally, we are happy with the progress of our movie theater expansion to date, as we strive toward our goal of operating 30 to 40 new theaters in prime locations across China by 2014. By the end of 2012, our target is to have 21 to 23 operational movie theaters. Our strategic network of movie theaters complements our distribution-centric business model and helps us differentiate ourselves from the competition.
Mr. Yu continued, Chinas total box office grew a remarkable 30% in 2011, with a record RMB13 billion in total receipts for the year. Movie screens also continue to grow at an unprecedented rate, rising from 6,200 at the beginning of the year to over 9,100 by December 2011. Looking forward, we will continue to leverage our vertically integrated business model to capitalize on the numerous opportunities arising from Chinas rapidly growing film industry.
(1) As used in this press release, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income attributable to Bona Film Group Limited per ADS exclude share-based compensation, changes in fair value of derivatives and changes in fair value of warrants. See Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures at the end of this press release.

The year-over-year increase in fourth quarter 2011 gross profit was primarily due to stronger distribution revenues in the fourth quarter 2011 compared to the fourth quarter 2010. The year-over-year decrease in gross margin was mainly the result of the increase in film investment and production revenues as a percentage of Bonas total revenues, which typically has a lower gross margin than the distribution business.
The decrease in gross margin was also the result of a delay in the launch of three Bona movie theaters, two in Beijing and one in Dongguan. The Company booked cost of revenues related to the three theaters in the fourth quarter of 2011. The delay was the result of the timing of necessary government approvals; however the Company expects the three movie theaters to commence operations in the first quarter 2012.

Fourth quarter 2011 operating expenses increased year over year mainly due to:
· An increase in sales and marketing expense for the promotion of the Companys newly released films
· An increase in general and administrative expense resulting from the expansion of Bonas business, especially due to the
expansion of the movie theater business
· An increase in professional fees associated with being a U.S.-listed company
The year-over-year decrease in operating margin was mainly the result of increased operating expenses related to the delay regarding the three Bona movie theaters discussed above.

Cash and Cash Flow
As of December 31, 2011, Bona had cash and cash equivalents, term deposits and restricted cash totaling US$30.2 million. Operating cash flow for the fourth quarter 2011 was a net inflow of approximately US$21.1 million and for the full year 2011 was a net inflow of approximately US$2.4 million. The net inflow for full year 2011 was mainly attributable to the collections of gross box office receipts of the films in year 2011.
Business Outlook
Based on current market and operating conditions, the Company estimates non-GAAP net income for the first quarter 2012 to be in the range of US$2.8 million to US$3.2 million, and non-GAAP net income for the full year 2012 to be approximately US$22.0 million.
Full year 2011 non-GAAP net income guidance assumes an increase in the Companys effective tax rate from 3.1% in 2011 to approximately 20.0% in 2012.

Bona Film Group CFO Mason Xu to Step Down, Assume CEO Position for Investment Fund
BEIJING, March 1, 2012 - Bona Film Group Limited (Bona or the Company) (NASDAQ: BONA), a leading film distributor in China, announced today that its chief financial officer, Mr. Mason Xu, has tendered his resignation as CFO of the Company to become chief executive officer of a China-based, U.S.-dollar private equity fund. Mr. Xu will remain as CFO with Bona through the completion of the Companys annual full-year audit and sign the Companys Annual Report on Form 20-F, which is expected to be filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission by April 30, 2012. Following his resignation, Mr. Xu will serve in an advisory capacity on the Companys Strategy Committee to ensure a smooth CFO transition while providing additional insight in support of Bonas strategic expansion.
Bona has formed a CFO search committee consisting of Mr. Dong Yu, Bonas founder, chairman and chief executive officer, along with two of the Companys independent directors, Dr. Daqing Qi and Mr. Jie Lian. The committee has identified a number of CFO candidates and expects to submit a final recommendation to the Companys board of directors within the next month.
We appreciate Masons efforts in establishing a strong and professional finance team, as well as in leading our overall financial management and internal control activities both before and after our initial public offering, said Mr. Yu. This is a terrific opportunity for him and although he will be missed in the financial department, we are sure the fiscal discipline he helped to instill within the company will continue to benefit Bona as we build on the impressive growth of Chinas film entertainment industry.
This change is bittersweet for me, said Mr. Xu. However, I am tremendously proud to have been a part of Bonas rise, and I know the Company is well positioned for continued success. With its exciting and award-winning films, Bona has captured the hearts of moviegoers across China over the last few years and I look forward to contributing to its future success in an advisory capacity.
Bonas Strategy Committee is a newly-formed, board-level committee that will assist in the formulation and execution of Bonas mid- to long-term strategy. The committee will consist of Mr. Yu and two of Bonas board directors, Ms. Nansun Shi, and Mr. Peixin Xu, all of whom have extensive operational experience and strategic connections across domestic and international film and television circles.
