(the “Company”), through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, ATA Testing Authority (Holdings) Limited (“ATA BVI”), X ing W ei Institute (Hong K ong) L imited (“Xing Wei”), ATA Testing Authority (Beijing) Limited (“ATA Testing”), Beijing JinDiXin Software Technology Limited (“Beijing JDX”), ATA Learning (Beijing) Inc. (“ATA Learning”), Zhong Xiao Zhi Xing Education Technology Company Limited (“Zhongxiao Zhixing”), and ATA Online (Beijing) Education Technology Limited (“ATA Online”) (collectively, referred to as the “Group”), provides computer-based testing services, online education services and other related services in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”). Prior to May 20, 2015, the Group had no legal ownership interest in ATA Online but had control over ATA Online through a series of contractual agreements as further in note 2(v) below. Significant Concentrations and Risks The Group is subject to the following significant concentration and risks: Country risk The Group is subject to special risks associated with the PRC. These include risks associated with, among others, the political, economic, legal and social environment in the PRC, including the relative difficulty of protecting and enforcing intellectual property rights in the PRC. The interpretation and application of current or proposed requirements and regulations may have an adverse effect on the Group’s business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, the ability to negotiate and implement specific business development projects in a timely and favorable manner may be impacted by political considerations unrelated to or beyond the control of the Group. Although the PRC government has been pursuing economic reform policies for over three decades, no assurance can be given that the PRC government will continue to pursue such policies or that such policies may not be significantly altered. Any change in PRC government policies and regulations affecting the education and testing service industry may have a negative impact on the Group’s operating results and financial condition.

The demand for the Group’s products and services by these agencies, institutions and associations is affected by government budgetary cycles, funding availability and government policies.
