Inspur International Limited provided consolidated earnings guidance for the year ended December 31, 2012. The board of directors of the company announced that it is expected that while the revenue for the year ended December 31, 2012 will record an increase as compared to the revenue for the corresponding period in 2011, the consolidated results of the group for the year ended December 31, 2012 will record a significant decrease as compared to the profit for the corresponding period in 2011, will record a loss. Such decline is primarily attributable to increase in expenses on research and development and marketing inputs and preferred share fair valuation adjustments.
