    --  For the third quarter of 2014, occupancy rate decreased by 2.7
        percentage points while ADR increased by 0.6%, resulting in a
        year-over-year decrease of 1.9% in RevPAR. The decrease in occupancy
        rate was mainly due to relatively soft macroeconomic conditions in the
        third quarter of 2014, as well as a dilutive impact from newly opened
        hotels. Sequentially, RevPAR increased by 6.3%, which was due to
        seasonality.

"During the third quarter, we achieved total revenues within our expectations, as well as year-over-year margin expansion for the seventh consecutive quarter, despite the fact that we are navigating through a soft market environment," said Mr. David Sun, the Company's chief executive officer. "The continued margin expansion was mainly driven by the increased mix of higher-margin revenue contribution from our franchised-and-managed hotels, highlighting continued strong franchise demand in the market as well as the positive impact this part of our business is having on results. The successful execution of our franchise-focused strategy along with our commitment to effective cost control initiatives is clearly helping us deliver stable performance and consistent incremental improvements."

"Looking ahead to the remainder of 2014," Mr. Sun continued, "we currently are not expecting a significant market rebound but do continue to remain confident about the long-term prospects of the travel and lodging market in China. We believe we have a proven and solid underlying business which is resilient under current market conditions and will allow us to capture the long-term opportunities in the industry. Our brands, products, scale, and proven execution track record form a solid business foundation on which we can build. To this end, in the near future, we plan to accelerate the development of Yitel hotels, roll out a new brand, 'Homeinn Plus,' to complement to our existing brand portfolio, and continue to invest in innovative marketing and customer communication initiatives and technology, including growing our mobile and social media platforms. We believe that these important growth initiatives, coupled with our franchise and multi-brand strategies as well as our proven ability to effectively control costs, will allow us to achieve continued profitable growth and solidify our leadership in the industry."

    Note: "V%" represents year-over-year percentage change in amounts

    --  The year-over-year increases in total revenues from both
        leased-and-operated and franchised-and-managed hotels in the third
        quarter 2014 were mainly driven by an increase in the number of hotels
        and hotel rooms in operation, partially offset by a decrease in RevPAR.

    Note: "Vpts" represents year-over-year change in percentage points of total revenues

Total operating costs and expenses were RMB 1.48 billion (US$241.1 million) for the third quarter of 2014, representing 78.9% of total revenues for the quarter. Total operating costs and expenses excluding any share-based compensation expenses and integration costs (non-GAAP) for the third quarter of 2014 were 77.8% of total revenues, compared to 79.5% in the same period a year ago.


    --  Total leased-and-operated hotel costs were RMB 1.30 billion (US$211.2
        million) for the third quarter of 2014, representing 80.4% of the
        leased-and-operated hotel revenues for the quarter compared to 80.9% in
        the same period a year ago. Total leased-and-operated hotel costs
        excluding any share-based compensation expenses and integration costs
        (non-GAAP) were 80.2% of the leased-and-operated hotel revenues in the
        third quarter of 2014 compared to 80.6% in the same period a year ago.
        Pre-opening cost was RMB 13.3 million (US$2.2 million) for the third
        quarter of 2014 compared to RMB 18.1 million in the third quarter of
        2013.
    --  Franchised-and-managed hotels personnel costs were RMB 71.1 million
        (US$11.6 million) for the third quarter of 2014, representing 26.9% of
        the franchised-and-managed hotel revenues for the quarter, compared to
        26.5% in the same period a year ago. Franchised-and-managed hotels
        personnel costs excluding share-based compensation expenses (non-GAAP)
        were 25.9% of franchised-and-managed hotel revenues in the third quarter
        of 2014, compared to 25.2% in the same period of 2013.
    --  Sales and marketing expenses were RMB 31.4 million (US$5.1 million) for
        the third quarter of 2014, representing 1.7% of total revenues for the
        quarter compared to 1.4% in the same period a year ago. The increase was
        mainly due to the increased cost associated with the Company's member
        rewards program. Sales and marketing expenses excluding share-based
        compensation expenses (non-GAAP) were 1.7% of total revenues for the
        third of quarter 2014 compared to 1.4% in the same period of 2013.
    --  General and administrative expenses were RMB 81.5 million (US$13.3
        million) for the third quarter of 2014, representing 4.3% of total
        revenues compared to 5.0% in the same period a year ago. General and
        administrative expenses excluding share-based compensation expenses and
        integration costs (non-GAAP) were 3.6% of total revenues for the quarter
        compared to 4.0% in the same period of 2013. The year-over-year decrease
        in general and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenues
        was driven by effective cost control at headquarters and continued
        leverage from economies of scale.

Income from Operations was RMB 284.5 million (US$46.3 million) for the third quarter of 2014. Income from operations excluding share-based compensation expenses and integration costs (non-GAAP) for the third quarter of 2014 was RMB 304.3 million (US$49.6 million), or 16.2% of total revenues, compared to RMB 251.1 million, or 14.4% of total revenues, in the same period of 2013. The year-over-year increase in income from operations margin rate for the quarter was mainly driven by the increased mix of higher-margin revenue contribution from franchised-and-managed operations, lower pre-opening costs and continual cost control initiatives.

The outstanding balance of convertible notes issued in December 2010 (measured at fair value) was RMB 1.03 billion (US$167.4 million). During the third quarter of 2014, Home Inns Group repurchased and retired its convertible notes of US$ 10.0 million notional amount by cash payment of RMB 60.0 million (US$9.8 million).

Recent Developments


    --  Online Retail Platform: In the third quarter, the Company launched an
        online retail platform, "youxuan.homeinns.com," which is embedded in
        Home Inns Group's website. This platform provides the Company's members
        and customers online purchase access to selected travel and lodging
        centric products. This is designed to be a business extension and
        revenue building initiative and the Company has already started to
        generate revenue from this platform. This initiative will also allow the
        Company to add value for its extensive loyalty members and customers.
        Furthermore, the Company will be working with Yihaodian, one of the
        leading Chinese B2C online "supermarket" players, through a strategic
        alliance to ensure top quality execution.
    --  Home Alliance: Home Inns Group plans to launch "Home Alliance" (or "Jia
        Meng"), a B2B service fee-based platform, starting in the fourth
        quarter. The Home Alliance program is a hotel membership based marketing
        alliance and corporate service program targeting small to medium sized
        regional economy or midscale hotels. A proprietary screening standard is
        in place to determine the eligibility of member hotels. This new
        platform will allow member hotels to take advantage of Home Inns Group's
        industry expertise and resources. The Company will, in return, benefit
        from the increasing variety of offerings on its platform, create a new
        revenue source, and attract new and more diversified customers to
        further strengthen its leadership position in the market.

Outlook for Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2014

Home Inns Group reiterates its target to open no fewer than 450 new hotels in 2014. This total is expected to reflect approximately 50 new leased-and-operated hotels, including the acquired Fairyland hotels (formerly known as Yunshang Siji). The balance is expected to consist of no fewer than 400 new franchised-and-managed hotels, highlighting continued strong franchise demand that is contributing a positive return to the business.

Given the continued soft market environment, fewer new leased-and-operated hotels planned for the year, and a lower than expected RevPAR in the Company's mature hotels' performance, Home Inns Group expects total revenues for the Group in the fourth quarter of 2014 to be in the range of RMB 1,625 million to RMB 1,675 million. Therefore, Home Inns Group expects total revenues for the Group for 2014 to be in the range of RMB 6,675 million to RMB 6,725 million, slightly lower than the initial full year expectations the Company provided at the beginning of the year. Nevertheless, the Company expects to deliver year-over-year profitability improvement in the fourth quarter of 2014.

These forecasts reflect the Company's current and preliminary views and are subject to change.

The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures, please see the table captioned "Reconciliations of GAAP and non-GAAP results" set forth at the end of this press release.

Home Inns Group believes that, used in conjunction with GAAP financial measures, these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the Group's performance, and both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing the Group's performance and when planning and forecasting future periods. Management believes that EBITDA, defined as earnings before interest, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, is a useful financial metric to assess Home Inns Group's operating and financial performance before the impact of investing and financing transactions and income taxes. In addition, management believes that EBITDA is widely used by other companies in the lodging industry and may be used as an analysis tool by both management and investors to measure and compare Home Inns Group's operational and financial performance with industry peers.

One of the limitations of using non-GAAP income from operations, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP net income attributable to shareholders is that they do not include all items that impact Home Inns Group's net income (loss) for the period. These non-GAAP measures exclude share-based compensation expenses, foreign exchange gain or loss and gain or loss from fair value change of convertible notes, which have been and will continue to be a significant recurring expense in Home Inns Group's business. In addition, Home Inns Group's EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to EBITDA or similarly titled measures utilized by other companies since such other companies may not calculate EBITDA in the same manner as Home Inns Group does. Management compensates for this and other limitations by providing specific information regarding the GAAP amounts excluded from each non-GAAP measure. Home Inns Group computes the non-GAAP financial measures using the same consistent method from quarter to quarter. Reconciliations of GAAP and non-GAAP results are included at the end of this press release. The non-GAAP adjustment items do not include the tax impact.

The presentation of EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an indication that Home Inns Group's future results will be unaffected by other charges and gains Home Inns Group considers to be outside the ordinary course of its business.

Home Inns Group completed its acquisition of 100% equity interest in Motel, and took control of Motel effective on October 1, 2011. Home Inns Group has consolidated Motel's operating and financial results since October 1, 2011. Home Inns Group has presented certain separated financial data of Motel in this earning release for the purpose of providing more information to investors. Home Inns Group had substantially completed Motel's integration as of the third quarter of 2013 and ceased to present separate operating metrics and revenues for Motel.

    "Occupancy rate" refers to the total number of occupied rooms divided by the total number of available rooms in a given period.

    "Average daily rate" refers to total hotel room revenues divided by the total number of occupied rooms in a given period.

    "RevPAR" represents revenue per available room, which is calculated by dividing total hotel room revenues by the total number of available rooms in a given period, or by multiplying average daily rates and occupancy rates in a given period.

    The operating data of multi-brand conversion hotels were included in "Motel".
