CDC Games Provides Financial Guidance for Q2 2008.

BEIJING -- CDC Games, a business unit of CDC Corporation (NASDAQ: CHINA), and pioneer of the "free-to-play, pay-for-merchandise" model for online games in China, today announced financial guidance, for CDC Games only, for the second quarter of 2008. As a result of diversifying its games portfolio in China, North America and Japan, increasing revenues during Q4 2007 and Q1 2008, and resolving its dispute with MGame, the licensor of Yulgang, CDC Games is now providing revenue and adjusted net income (ANI)1 guidance, solely for the CDC Games business unit, for Q2 2008. CDC Games estimates that its revenue for Q2 2008 will range between USD $11 million and USD $12 million, and that it will exit the quarter with positive adjusted net income.

"Last year we promised to provide guidance for CDC Games when our visibility into our operations and prospects improved," said Mike Latimore, chief financial officer of CDC Games. "Based on the diversification of our games portfolio, the growing revenues and the resolution of our dispute with MGame, we believe that we can now confidently resume providing financial guidance. With the strong results in our business during Q1 2008, including the rebound of Yulgang and continued growth of Special Force, as well as our expectation for new content updates and expanded marketing going forward, we believe we are well-positioned for the remainder of 2008."

(1)Special Note Regarding CDC Games Financial Guidance

The financial guidance provided herein applies to CDC Games only, a business unit of CDC Corporation which, during the first nine months of 2007 contributed approximately 8.5 percent to CDC Corporation's consolidated revenue. This financial guidance does not apply to, and is not indicative of, the consolidated financial results of CDC Corporation, or the financial results of CDC Software Corporation, China.com, Inc. or any of their respective affiliates or subsidiaries. Investors are cautioned not to place reliance on the financial guidance set forth herein for purposes of any investment decision with respect to the shares of CDC Corporation and should read the foregoing in conjunction with the reports and other materials filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission by CDC Corporation, including, without limitation, its Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2006 on Form 20-F filed on July 2, 2007.

(1)Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement the financial measures prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), CDC Games uses non-GAAP financial measures for net income and other line items, which are adjusted from results based on GAAP. These non-GAAP measures are provided to enhance the user's overall understanding of CDC Games' current financial performance and its prospects for the future. The Company believes the non-GAAP results provide useful information to both management and investors. Although CDC Games continues to report GAAP results to investors, it believes the inclusion of non-GAAP financial measures provides further clarity in its financial reporting. These non-GAAP financial measures may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies, and should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP measures.

CDC Games defines adjusted net income as net income adjusted for certain purchase accounting related charges and restructuring expenses. The purchase accounting related charges are primarily related to the non-cash amortization of acquisition related intangibles and non-cash tax charges related to our utilization of acquired tax net operating loss carry forwards. Restructuring charges typically result as we consolidate acquired companies to achieve operational synergies. CDC Games cannot, at this point in time, without unreasonable efforts, quantify such purchase accounting related charges and restructuring expenses.
