E-House is a leading real estate services company in China with a diverse scope of services, wide brand recognition and geographic presence. We offer a wide range of services to the real estate industry through various business segments including primary sales agency, secondary brokerage, consulting and information services, advertising and investment management. For five consecutive years (2004-2008), we have been ranked by the China Real Estate Top 10 Committee as the largest real estate agency and consulting services company in China, as measured by the number of transactions facilitated, transaction value and gross floor area of properties sold, and by the expanse of our geographic coverage. Our clients include leading domestic and international real estate developers. On August 8, 2007, upon ringing the New York Stock Exchange opening bell, E-House (NYSE: EJ), became the first Chinese real estate concept stock to list in the United States.

Our service offerings are enhanced by our team of experienced and dedicated real estate research staff and our proprietary real estate information database and analysis system, the CRIC system. We believe that our CRIC system is the only information system in China that provides up-to-date, comprehensive and in-depth information covering residential and commercial real estate properties across all major regions in China. Our subsidiary China Real Estate Information Corporation, which provides real estate information and consulting services through the CRIC system, merged with the online real estate business of SINA Corporation (NASDAQ GS: SINA) in October 2009 and listed on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under the symbol “CRIC”.

We have received numerous awards and accolades for our innovative and high-quality services, including “China’s Best Company” from the National Association of Real Estate Brokerage and Appraisal Companies in 2006, the “Leading Brand Name in China’s Real Estate Consulting and Agency Industry” from the China Real Estate Top 10 Committee from 2006 to 2008 and Forbes' “China Enterprises with the Best Potential” for both 2008 and 2009.

We have experienced substantial growth since our inception in 2000. Within two years of commencing operations, we became a leader in the real estate services market in Shanghai. Today we operate in more than 43 cities throughout China, and leverage the expertise of our extensive network of over 4,000 qualified real estate sales professionals. We consistently strive to create value for our shareholders, and pledge to serve the evolving needs of our clients and capture growth opportunities in the real estate service industry.
