Ctrip.com International Ltd (NASDAQ:CTRP) , a Chinese online travel operator, said it posted unaudited fourth quarter net revenue of 356 mln yuan and net profit of 135 mln yuan, up 58 pct and 102 pct year-on-year, respectively.

In a statement, the Nasdaq-listed company said diluted earnings per ADS were 1.96 yuan in the fourth quarter. Excluding share-based compensation expenses, diluted earnings per ADS were 2.28 yuan.

For full year 2007, net revenue rose 54 pct to 1.2 bln yuan, and net income climbed 66 pct to 398 mln yuan, Ctrip said. Diluted earnings per ADS were 5.84 yuan. Excluding share-based compensation charges, diluted earnings per ADS were 7.11 yuan, compared with 4.44 yuan in 2006.

The company added that it expects net revenue to grow 35 pct in 2008.

Ctrip plans to build a second call center this year after purchasing land rights in Nantong, which is about 110 kilometers north of Shanghai.

Ctrip's shares closed down 4.76 pct yesterday at 54.65 usd.

Earlier this week, Citigroup (NYSE:C) said it has a 75 usd price target on Ctrip.

“I’ll sit back and see what the market does with it, and then decide...but would definitely not short it...because it's got momentum,” Chahine concluded.

C.trip.com International a firm in the Internet Services – Delivery space, which could be a great candidate for another beat.

This company has seen a nice streak of beating earnings estimates, especially when looking at the previous two reports. In fact, in these reports, CTRP has beaten estimates by at least 15% in both cases, suggesting it has a nice short-term history of crushing expectations.

Earnings in Focus

Two quarters ago, CTRP was expected to incur a loss of 31 cents per share, while it actually incurred a loss of 26 cents per share, a beat of 16.1%. Meanwhile, for the most recent quarter, the company looked to incur a loss of 27 cents per share, when it actually incurred a loss of 15 cents per share instead, representing a 44.4% beat.

Thanks in part to this history, recent estimates have been moving higher for Ctrip.com. In fact, the Earnings ESP for CTRP is positive, which is a great sign of a coming beat. After all, the Zacks Earnings ESP compares the most accurate estimate to the broad consensus, looking to find stocks that have seen big revisions as of late, suggesting that analysts have recently become more bullish on the company’s earnings prospects. This is the case for CTRP, as the firm currently has a Zacks Earnings ESP of 133.33%, so another beat could be around the corner.

This is particularly true when you consider that CTRP has a great Zacks Rank #2 (Buy) which can be a harbinger of outperformance and a signal for a strong earnings profile...

New fund raising by Ctrip and Tujia looks like far more than either company needs, and is part of a broader wave seeing Chinese Internet sites raise big funds to take advantage of strong investor sentiment.

Someone recently asked me why so many companies in China are currently rushing to raise cash, and, after some quick thought, I provided my best answer: Because they can. That seems to be the mentality among Chinese companies these days, including leading online travel agent Ctrip (Nasdaq: CTRP), which has just issued bonds to raise a cool $1.1 billion in new cash that it really doesn't need. But that statement isn't completely true, as Ctrip is in another headline that has it joining in a new $250 million funding round for Tujia, China's equivalent of Airbnb.

Ctrip moved very quickly in this latest fund raising, announcing its plan to issue up to $1 billion in convertible notes on Wednesday and then actually pricing the offering a day later (company announcement). The company upped its original fund-raising target to $1.1 billion in the final pricing announcement, indicating demand was probably quite strong for the notes among investors eager to cash in on China's rallying stock markets.

Ctrip had about $2 billion in its coffers at the end of March, meaning this latest fundraising will bring its total cash pot to about $3 billion, or more than a quarter of its current market value of about $11 billion.

The deal values Tujia at around $1 billion, meaning the partners in this latest funding round are probably buying around a quarter of the company. I've written several times over the last few years about Tujia, which previously raised $100 million in its third funding round last year (previous post).

I do like the business model, especially in China where many people own vacant properties and might want to fill them with the kinds of very short-term tenants offered by Tujia. .....

durch ausländische Firmen möglich durch neues Pilotprogramm in China

seekingalpha.com/article/...-china-opens-escape-route-for-vies
Friday the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) issued a pronouncement (2015) 196 announcing a pilot program that appears to allow 100% foreign ownership of e-commerce businesses operating from the Shanghai Free Trade Zone.

I had anticipated this development as a way to let foreign companies using the VIE structure to operate e-commerce a way out of the proposed crackdown on VIEs under the new foreign investment law. The proposed law may limit the use of VIEs to situations where the foreign parent company is ultimately controlled by Chinese. Many of the overseas listed companies have Chinese control of the offshore company, either through stock ownership, dual class share structures, or special control arrangements. MNCs operating in restricted sectors would not be able to restructure to be controlled by Chinese, and face a possible ban from China.

The new MIIT rule provides an escape valve. It appears limited to companies operating in online data processing and transaction processing (operating e-commerce). It is unclear to me how far that definition will stretch.

Many foreign multinationals operate in China through the VIE structure. Only a few have disclosed this fact, since disclosure is only required when the VIE operations are material to the company as a whole. Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN), CBS, and Pearson Education have disclosed the existence of Chinese VIEs. The new rule seems to help Amazon, and it is less clear whether CBS or Pearson Education will be able to take advantage of it.

The law might also be used by some of the overseas listed Chinese companies that will have difficulty complying with the new foreign investment law.
..Ctrip (NASDAQ:CTRP) does not have a dual class share structure or sufficient Chinese ownership to demonstrate Chinese control, and the new rule might provide an out for them.

It is also unclear to what extent operations will have to be moved into the Shanghai Free Trade Zone in order to qualify for the new rule. Such is the nature of Chinese regulation; implementation details will take some time, even though the new rule is already effective.

Many overseas listed Chinese companies are in the process of going private from the US exchanges with the intent to relist on China's frothy boards. I believe this trend is less motivated by changes in VIE rules than the high valuations currently available on Chinese exchanges.

Bottom line: The move by a Ctrip vice president to the role of CEO at eLong represents growing ties between the 2 companies, with the former likely to make a buyout offer for the latter within the next year.

A new executive move between online travel leader Ctrip (NASDAQ:CTRP) and the smaller eLong (NASDAQ:LONG) shows that the pair of former rivals are moving closer together, hinting at a potential outright merger in the not-too-distant future. Such a merger would have been major news just 5 years ago, when this pair of companies were the 2 clear leaders in China's online travel sector.

Since then, however, eLong has sputtered under the ownership of US travel giant Expedia (NASDAQ:EXPE), which finally called it quits in May and sold its stake in the Chinese company. Ctrip was quick to jump in and purchase 37 percent of eLong for $400 million, and has now moved even closer to its former rival with this new executive move.......seekingalpha.com/article/...ts-cozier-with-elong-merger-coming

Ctrip.com International Ltd.
carries a Zacks Rank #2 Buy and an Earnings ESP of +133.3%. The Chinese travel booking website has outperformed the Zacks Consensus Estimate in all the trailing four quarters with an average positive surprise of 19.31%. The company, slated to report on Jul 29, has a long-term earnings growth rate of 5.5%.

We believe Ctrip is seeing tremendous growth fueled by the growing middle class, increased consumerism in China, the shift from traditional to online media for booking travel and increased mobile usage.

SHANGHAI (IT-Times) - Der Online-Reiseanbieter Priceline Group hat bereits viel Geld in Chinas führende Online-Reiseagentur cTrip.com International gesteckt. Die dankt die Investitionen mit einem kräftigen Wachstum. Sowohl Umsatz- und Ergebnis wurden übertroffen.

cTrip.com International (WKN: A0BK6U) hat seinen Umsatz im jüngsten Quartal um 47 Prozent auf 407,7 Mio. US-Dollar gesteigert. Das Hotel- und Flugticket-Buchungsgeschäft wuchsen um 47 bzw. um 45 Prozent gegenüber dem Vorjahr. Die Bruttomargen verbesserten sich im jüngsten Quartal um 1,6 Prozentpunkte auf 71,1 Prozent, nachdem das Unternehmen die Vertriebs- und Marketingkosten um 6,1 Prozent gegenüber dem Vorquartal senken konnte.Mit einem bereinigten Nettogewinn (Non-GAAP) von 15 US-Cent je Aktie wurden die Gewinnerwartungen um 14 US-Cent je Aktie übertroffen. Für das laufende dritte Quartal 2015 erwartet cTrip.com ein Umsatzwachstum von 45 bis 50 Prozent gegenüber dem Vorjahr. (ami)

Summary

   CTRP's results beat top and bottom lines with better-than-expected guidance. Strength in air ticketing and hotels were evident.
   LONG privatization bid from Tencent could deliver higher mobile traffic and booking for CTRP, a key long-term positive.
   Partnership between Tencent-LONG-CTRP could be a negative for BIDU, as it develops its own O2O/Travel services.
.....

. I think the partnership with CTRP and Tencent, along with its stake in LONG will create the best of online ticketing and hotel offerings that BIDU may not match. In the most likely scenario, BIDU could fall further behind Tencent-CTRP-LONG and may need to pursue additional M&A to address its weakness. That said, I continue to believe Tuniu (NASDAQ:TOUR) remains an attractive acquisition target for either CTRP or BIDU given TOUR's strength in outbound tourism. I reiterate my bullish view on CTRP, Tencent and TOUR. I also stand firmly with my bearish view on BIDU.

ist hier noch jemand aktiv? ich halte Ctrip für äusserst interessant mittelfristig. kurzfristig gefällt mir zusätzlich der Chart ganz gut. ich sehe hier ca 10% Erholung der "Krisen" der letzten Wochen.

auf Reisende Chinesen in der Zukunft. Bin ca 10% im Minus. Plane allerdings auch nicht zu verkaufen.

mir scheint als fehlt der Aktie der Schwung. mit den 2017er Zahlen stehen wir allerdings auch bei einem 60er KGV. Da ist schon viel Potential eingecasht. Charttechnisch sehe ich jedoch Aktuell kaum Gründe für einen Abschwung.
