Leju Announces Estimated Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2015 Revenues
BEIJING, January 21, 2016 Leju Holdings Limited (Leju or the Company) (NYSE: LEJU), a leading online-to-offline (O2O) real estate services provider in China, today announced that it expects to report total revenues of between US$170 million and US$180 million for the fourth quarter 2015. Accordingly, the Companys fiscal 2015 total revenues are estimated to be between US$570 million and US$580 million, which would represent an increase of approximately 15% to 17% from US$496.0 million in 2014, as compared to the Companys previous fiscal 2015 total revenues guidance of between US$600 million and US$620 million. The estimated revenue range reflects lower-than-expected coupon sales and redemptions for real estate e-commerce services for the fourth quarter.
These preliminary unaudited results are based on managements initial review of operations for the fourth quarter 2015. The Company will report and discuss its fourth quarter and full year 2015 results in more details in March 2016.
