The9 (Nasdaq: NCTY), the online game company, and operator of World of Warcraft in China reports earnings on Tuesday, August 28.
My estimate of the World of Warcraft average concurrent users (ACU) recorded during the second quarter is 310,000. The ACU, derived from my measurements of the WoW server utilization levels, is lower than the 330,000 number achieved during the first quarter. The main reason for this decline is the scheduled server downtime for the upgrade of the hardware required by The Burning Crusade WoW expansion.

Netease.com (Nasdaq: NTES), the leading Chinese online game developer and operator announces second quarter earnings on Monday, August 13. Netease's Fantasy Westward Journey is the most popular game in China and is responsible for over 60% of the company's revenues.
Last year we started tracking the utilization levels of Netease's game servers to measure the average and peak concurrent user numbers of the company's games and forecast gaming revenues. Our previous reports generated significant interest from analysts, investors and media, both Internet and printed (China Daily February 28, 2007).
For the second quarter, our analysis of the server utilization data predicts a 15% decline in the average concurrent users (ACU) of Fantasy Westward Journey compared to the ACU achieved during the first quarter. Netease's total gaming revenues and net revenues are forecasted to decrease by 10% and 8% respectively, compared to the previous quarter.

Netease.com (Nasdaq: NTES) reports first quarter earnings on Monday, May 21 after the market close. The company derives 80% of its revenue from two online games: Fantasy Westward Journey and Westward Online Journey II.
To estimate the company's online game revenues I am continuously tracking the utilization levels of the Netease's game servers. Based on my interpretation of the server usage data, I expect online game revenues to increase by about 8-10% quarter over quarter, driven by the strong performance of Fantasy Westward Journey.
