The significant year-over-year and sequential increases in revenues were mainly due to strong growth in revenues from premium mobile Internet services and revenues from other services.

Net revenues from premium mobile Internet services increased 147.9% year-over-year and 17.2% sequentially to USD 7.7 mln in the second quarter of 2011. The increases were primarily due to strong and steady growth in the number of paying user accounts, which reflected growth in the number of NetQin's registered and active user accounts, as well as increased use of its premium services, particularly among its overseas paying user accounts, which generally pay a higher subscription rate.

Net revenues from other services in the second quarter of 2011 were USD 1.18 mln, representing an increase of 144.0% year-over-year and 11.8% sequentially. The year-over-year and sequential increases were primarily due to the growth in revenues from secured download and delivery services for mobile applications produced by third parties. Net revenues from other services as a percentage of total net revenue has remained relatively stable in the 12-14% range for the past five quarters.
Cumulative registered user accounts were 102.7 mln as of June 30, 2011, compared with 50.2 mln as of June 30, 2010 and 86.0 mln as of March 31, 2011.
