On March 6, 2018, the Company entered into a framework agreement with the China Sports Lottery Administration Center ("CSLA"), under which, both parties plan to cooperate to develop physical channels to sell sports lottery tickets.

Suspension of Online Sports Lottery Sales in China

All provincial sports lottery administration centers to which the Company provided sports lottery sales services have suspended accepting online purchase orders for lottery products in response to the Notice related to Self-Inspection and Self-Remedy of Unauthorized Online Lottery Sales, (the "Self-Inspection Notice"), which was jointly promulgated by the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Civil Affairs and the General Administration of Sports of the People's Republic of China on January 15, 2015. In response to the Self-Inspection Notice, on April 4, 2015, the Company decided to voluntarily suspend all online lottery sales services.

Fourth Quarter 2018 Financial Results for Continuing Operations

Net Revenues

The Company has assessed the impact of the ASC 606 guidance at the beginning of 2018 by reviewing its existing customer contracts and current accounting policies and practices to identify differences that will result from applying the new requirements, including the evaluation of its performance obligations, transaction price, customer payments, transfer of control and principal versus agent considerations. Based on the assessment, the Company concluded that there was no change to the timing and pattern of revenue recognition for its current revenue streams in scope of Topic 606 and therefore there were no material changes to the Company's consolidated financial statements upon adoption of ASC 606.

Net revenues were RMB27.2 million (US$4.0 million) for the fourth quarter of 2018, representing a decrease of RMB8.4 million or 23.6% from RMB35.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2017 and a decrease of RMB2.9 million or 9.6% from RMB30.1 million for the third quarter of 2018.
