Analysts expected revenues of $63.41 million for the quarter.
Gross profit declined 40.9% year-over-year to RMB212.5 million or US$31.3 million, and gross profit margin fell to 80.1% from 88.8% in the third quarter 2007.
Active paying accounts for online games declined 31.6% to 937 thousand, and average revenue per user dropped 4.4% to RMB282.1. Meanwhile, average concurrent users for online games rose 9% from last year to 543 thousand.
