China's Online Education Market: Stocks to Watch: UMEWF, EDU, DL, XRS

New York, NY, Point Roberts, WA - July 15, 2013 (www.investorideas.com newswire) Investorideas.com staff: Investorideas.com, an investor research portal specializing in sector research for independent investors issues a sector snapshot of the online China education market and some of the publicly traded companies going after market share.

According to an article in technode.com quoting CEO of New Oriental, “ 40% of China’s Existing Education Market Will Be Online in 3-5 Years.
The online education industry is still in its infancy compared to the potential it represents down the road as China’s hunger for education explodes..
A recent article in Techcrunch.comn said, “ education institutions are now struggling with demand, especially in fast-growing markets like China. Schools there literally can’t build enough buildings to put people in their colleges, he said, and are trying to figure out how to handle issues like students that are sometimes seven hours away from their nearest physical campus. Online education means you can scale immensely without worrying about growing the physical plant and those costs, and it also means students need only a phone to participate, lowering costs immensely."
According to data from MarketResearchReports.Biz,"in China, the market size of the education and training industry soared from RMB610 billion in 2008 to RMB955.4 billion in 2012, with the CAGR of 11.87%."
Wall Street Journal said in its recent article, Online Education, A New Frontier in China , "Changing views of education in China make a shift to more online education inevitable. Chinese students are becoming less fixated on tests. Parents are increasingly sending their children to English-immersion camps abroad rather than classrooms. Today's children are more comfortable with e-learning."
UMeWorld (OTCQB: UMEWF) operates UMeLook (www.umelook.com), an online video platform focused on bringing foreign video content to China and has recently branched out into the online education market. The Company just announced the launch of its SmartStar Home Version Subscription Service. The Company is a step closer to commercializing its digital education platform and is on track to becoming a leading education service provider in China.
SmartStar Home Version will be available through a monthly subscription of CNY$75 (US$12), enabling the user to have unlimited service access via the internet. This will initially target students in Grades 5 through 9. The Company will introduce other grades systematically over the coming quarters.
The stock closed at $0.4760, up 0.0360 or 8.18% in Friday’s session.
New Oriental Education (NYSE:EDU) will report its financial results for the fourth fiscal quarter ended May 31, 2013, before the U.S. market opens on July 23, 2013.. The company is the largest provider of private educational services in China based on the number of program offerings, total student enrollments and geographic presence. The stock has a 52 week range of $9.410 $24.15 and is currently trading around its highs .
China Distance Education Holdings Limited (NYSE:DL) online courses are designed to help professionals and other course participants obtain and maintain the skills, licenses and certifications necessary to pursue careers in China in the areas of accounting, law, healthcare, construction engineering, and other industries. The Company also offers online test preparation courses to self-taught learners pursuing higher education diplomas or degrees and to secondary school and college students preparing for various academic and entrance exams. In addition, the Company offers online foreign language courses and offline business start-up training courses. The stock closed at $7.65 on Friday and has had a significant move in the past few months, moving up from a base of around $5.00
TAL Education Group (NYSE:XRS) will release its unaudited financial results for the first quarter of fiscal year 2014 ended May 31, 2013, before the market opens on Monday, July 22, 2013.

Chinese Internet Stocks to Watch: (BIDU), (UMEWF), (YOKU) and the Chinese Online Video Market

New York, NY / Point Roberts, WA - June 20, 2013 (www.investorideas.com newswire) Investorideas.com staff: Investorideas.com, an investor research portal specializing in sector research for independent investors issues a snapshot for the online Chinese video market and some of the publicly traded companies in the space. The big players are targeting the growing online and mobile market in China with acquisitions and strategic partnering, while new start-up company UMeWorld (OTCQB: UMEWF) is aiming for its audience with foreign content.

Search engine company Baidu, Inc. (NasdaqGS: BIDU), currently with the largest online video platform, announced in May its acquisition of the online video business of leading Internet video provider PPS for US $370 million.
Baidu and PPS expect the transaction to close in the second quarter of 2013, subject to customary closing conditions. Upon completion of the transaction, the PPS online video business will be consolidated into Baidu's financial statements. PPS's online video business will be merged with Baidu's own video platform iQiyi.
UMeWorld (OTCQB: UMEWF) operates UMeLook (www.umelook.com), an online video platform focused on bringing foreign video content to China. UMeLook is deployed through a sophisticated CDN (Content Delivery Network) with broad coverage throughout Mainland China, Hong Kong & Taiwan. UMeLook plans to be a source of foreign video content for the Chinese viewer across any Internet-enabled device within China. UMeWorld intends to focus its future operations on digital media and the digital education market.
According to a recent press release from the company, "China has a population of 550 million "webizens," many of whom are glued to tablets or smartphones as they make their daily commute; mobile Web users last year totaled 420 million, an increase of nearly 18% from the previous year. However, the competition for "eyeballs" is fierce. Unlike many local online video companies who focus on local TV series and movies, UMeLook is uniquely positioned to provide foreign UGC video content of 3 to 8 minutes duration. UMeLook is targeting Chinese viewers between the ages of 18 and 45 years old who are interested in foreign information, products and brands.”
A recent report from www.iresearchchina.com notes, "Revenue of China online video attained 2.42 billion Yuan in Q1 2013, with a year on year growth of 39.5% and a quarter on quarter drop of 11.0% influenced by decreasing seasonal advertising. As the online video markets are gradually driven by multi-devices, commercialization of mobile internet will affect whole video industry in the future.”
Youku Tudou (NYSE: YOKU) recently signed a deal with SINA Corporation (NasdaqGS: SINA) to promote its video content on PC and mobile platforms.
Youku Tudou reported, "Under the deal, in exchange for access to Youku Tudou's video library, SINA will leverage their PC and mobile platform to promote Youku Tudou's licensed content to its users on Weibo. The multi-screen strategic collaboration also draws on huge gains in mobile traffic for both companies – 76% of Weibo's daily active users access Weibo through mobile devices, while Youku Tudou counts 170 million daily mobile views.”
