Kingsoft has been selected for the third time in a roll, which proved that the Company is highly competitive and profitable with huge potentials for further growth and development.

Kingsoft has been dedicated to innovation, with a determination to explore and develop more comprehensive and innovative applications and entertainment software in order to meet the needs of the public and lead the domestic software industry. Kingsoft's commitment to innovation was also acknowledged by the Chinese President Hu JinTao during his visit to the research centre of Kingsoft in December 2009. Entering into a new year, Kingsoft will carry on offering high quality products, with a target to launch several new products in the first quarter, including the long awaited new 2D online game The Legend of Moon online edition developed by Seasun Game Studio of Kingsoft, the enhanced Kingsoft Internet Security 2010 version as well as the new Kingsoft WPS office 2010 version with combined online functions.

This is the sixth time for Forbes China to conduct such an in-depth and independent appraisal toward over 8,000 SMEs with an annual revenue from 5 million to 1 billion in China. The calculation of the ranking is based on the weighted computation derived from the growth index (3 years weighted sales growth rate and profit growth rate), return rate index (3 years weighted ROA and ROE), profitability index (sales profit rate) and scale index of enterprises with some candidates participated in site visits. Through all these processes, the top 200 SMEs with greatest growth potentials are ranked accordingly.
