Thursday, July 02, 2009 8:57 AM


CDC Corporation (NASDAQ: CHINA), a global enterprise software and new media company, announced today that it filed its Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2008 with the Securities and Exchange Commission, on June 30, 2009.

The 20-F discloses the remediation of the company’s material weaknesses in internal controls over financial reporting that existed at December 31, 2007. Further, there were no new material weaknesses disclosed for the year ended December 31, 2008.

“We are very pleased to have remediated all of our previously-disclosed material weaknesses in the area of certain tax, treasury and financial reporting,” said Peter Yip, CEO of CDC Corporation “The remediation of these material weaknesses is a significant achievement for us given the diversity of our operations and the number of acquisitions we have undertaken in the past few years. This is an exciting time for CDC Corporation, with several strategic alternatives underway for CDC Software; CDC Games’ upcoming highly-anticipated launch of Lord of the Rings Online in China which we expect this year; and the growth in Yulgang where we have seen a 45 percent increase in average daily revenue in the second quarter compared to the first quarter.”

The 20-F can be found on CDC Corporation’s website (www.cdccorporation.net), and on the SEC’s website (www.sec.gov).
