Gross profit margin for the online game business for the second quarter of 2009 was 88.3%, compared to 90.0% and 91.2% for the preceding quarter and the second quarter of 2008, respectively. The quarter-over-quarter and year-over-year decreases in gross profit margin were primarily due to increased staff-related costs in the second quarter of 2009.
