BEIJING, China, November 25, 2008 Xinyuan Real Estate Co., Ltd. (Xinyuan or the Company) (NYSE:XIN), a fast-growing residential real estate developer with a focus on strategically selected Tier II cities in China, today announced its unaudited financial results for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2008.
| Total revenues for the third quarter of 2008 decreased 5.4% to US$83.0 million from US$87.7 million for the second quarter of 2008. |

| Net income for the third quarter of 2008 decreased 40.9% to US$7.8 million from US$13.2 million for the second quarter of 2008. |
| Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 increased 43.8% to US$53.9 million from US$37.5 million for the same period in 2007. |
| Diluted earnings per share were US$0.05 for the third quarter of 2008, equivalent to US$0.10 per American Depositary Share (ADS), compared to US$0.08 diluted earnings per share or US$0.16 per ADS for the second quarter of 2008. |
| Diluted earnings per share were US$0.27 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, equivalent to US$0.54 per ADS, compared to US$0.31 diluted earnings per share or US$0.62 per ADS for the same period in 2007. |

The third quarter of 2008 continued a challenging period within Chinas real estate sector, said Mr. Yong Zhang, Xinyuans chairman and chief executive officer. Government policies introduced during the second half of last year to cool a rapidly growing housing market continued to weigh heavily on consumer demand and have created a wait-and-see attitude amongst consumers. While home prices have remained relatively stable in the markets in which we operate, sales volumes have decreased across much of the industry. Despite these challenges, Xinyuan has delivered solid results for the first nine months of 2008.

Mr. Zhang continued, Recently, Chinas central and municipal governments eased their monetary and fiscal policies in a combined effort to stimulate the real estate sector and promote growth. In addition, on November 9, 2008, Chinas State Council announced a US$586 billion economic stimulus package aimed at encouraging domestic consumption. These are encouraging signs, and although it may take some time for these policies to demonstrate measurable results, we believe our quick asset turnover business model and strong cash position will allow us to take advantage of the pent-up demand generated by Chinas rapid urbanization and growing middle class. Looking to the remainder of 2008 and into 2009, we plan to modify our production schedule and slow construction to enhance our capital efficiency and effectively monitor our cash flow until markets and demand stabilize. Although visibility remains difficult in the near-term, we remain confident in the long-term prospects of the real estate sector in China.
Mr. Frank Ng, Xinyuans chief financial officer added, As part of our ongoing strategy during this period of softer consumer demand, we continue to focus on improving our position within the six cities we currently operate. During the third quarter we launched the first phase of our Kunshan International City Garden project which has a total developable GFA of 509,851 square meters and we completed construction of approximately 67,600 square meters of GFA in our Zhengzhou Commercial Plaza project. Our strong balance sheet and good cash position of approximately US$184 million as of September 30, 2008 provide us with sufficient funding to finance the development of existing projects to completion and allow us room to gear up for business expansion once demand increases and new market opportunities are presented.
Financial Results for the Third Quarter and Nine Months ended September 30, 2008
Revenues
Total revenues were US$83.0 million for the third quarter of 2008, compared to US$87.7 million and US$120.6 million for the second quarter of 2008 and third quarter of 2007, respectively, representing decreases of 5.4% and 31.2% from the second quarter of 2008 and third quarter of 2007, respectively. Third quarter total revenues included a favorable adjustment of approximately US$1.7 million, which was caused by the inclusion of certain excluded costs in managements cost estimate for two projects.
Total GFA recognized for revenue was approximately 93.9 thousand square meters for the third quarter of 2008, compared to 101.0 thousand square meters and 191.1 thousand square meters for the second quarter of 2008 and third quarter of 2007, respectively. The average selling price per square meter recognized for revenue was approximately Renminbi (RMB) 6,260 for the third quarter of 2008, compared to RMB6,300 and RMB5,050 for the second quarter of 2008 and third quarter of 2007, respectively.
The quarter-over-quarter decrease in revenue was primarily due to decreased revenue of US$15.5 million from Suzhou Lake Splendid, Suzhou Colorful Garden and Suzhou International City Garden, as a result of weaker market conditions in the third quarter of 2008 compared to the second quarter of 2008, and was partially offset by increased revenue of US$10.8 million from Jinan International City Garden and Zhengzhou Xinyuan Colorful Garden, which launched pre-sales in the second quarter of 2008.
The year-over-year decrease in revenue was primarily attributable to decreased revenue of US$67.3 million from Jinan Elegant Scenery and Suzhou Lake Splendid compared to the third quarter of 2007. These two projects launched pre-sales in April and May 2007, respectively, and enjoyed strong sales performance in the third quarter of 2007. The decreased revenue was partially offset by increased revenue of US$43.5 million from Jinan International City Garden and Zhengzhou Xinyuan Colorful Garden, which launched pre-sales in November 2007 and April 2008, respectively.
6
For the nine months ended September 30, 2008, total revenues were US$295.8 million, an increase of 35.5% from US$218.3 million for the same period in 2007. Total GFA recognized for revenue was approximately 356.1 thousand square meters for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, compared to 363.5 thousand square meters for the same period in 2007. The average selling price per square meter recognized for revenue was approximately RMB6,100 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, compared to RMB4,800 for the same period in 2007.
The geographic breakdown of revenues from real estate sales were as follows:

Gross Profit
Gross profit for the third quarter of 2008 was US$18.4 million, compared to US$20.7 million and US$31.7 million for the second quarter of 2008 and third quarter of 2007, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2008, gross profit was US$75.7 million, an increase of 6.1% from US$71.3 million for the same period in 2007.
The gross margin percentage for the third quarter of 2008 was 22.2%, compared to 23.6% and 26.3% for the second quarter of 2008 and third quarter of 2007, respectively. The quarter-over-quarter decrease in gross margin percentage was mainly attributed to the third quarter 2008 sale of projects of Suzhou International City Garden and Zhengzhou Xinyuan Colorful Garden which generated lower gross margins due to higher land acquisition costs and construction costs. The year-over-year decrease in gross margin percentage was attributed to the third quarter 2007 sale of Zhengzhou Central Garden West and Zhengzhou Central Garden East which generated higher gross margins due to lower land acquisition costs and construction costs. Similarly, due to lower margins on newly launched projects of Suzhou International City Garden and Zhengzhou Xinyuan Colorful Garden, for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 the gross margin percentage was 25.6%, compared to 32.7% for the same period in 2007.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses were US$13.5 million for the third quarter of 2008, compared to US$12.4 million and US$5.7 million for the second quarter of 2008 and third quarter of 2007, respectively. As a percentage of total revenue, the selling, general and administrative expenses for the third quarter of 2008 were 16.3%, compared to 14.2% and 4.8% for the second quarter of 2008 and third quarter of 2007, respectively. The quarter-over-quarter increase in total selling, general and administrative expenses was due to increased selling and marketing activities to promote new projects. The year-over-year increase in total selling, general and administrative expenses was due to increased selling and marketing activities to promote new projects, salaries and other expenses associated with the addition of new employees, stock-based compensation amortization, and professional fees associated

with maintenance as a listed company on the New York Stock Exchange and compliance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Similarly, for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, selling, general and administrative expenses were US$36.8 million, compared to US$13.7 million for the same period in 2007. As a percentage of total revenue, the selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 were 12.4%, compared to 6.3% for the same period in 2007.
Operating Margin
The operating margin percentage for the third quarter of 2008 was 5.9%, compared to 9.4% and 21.5% for the second quarter of 2008 and third quarter of 2007, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2008, the operating margin percentage was 13.1%, compared to 26.4% for the same period in 2007. The quarter-over-quarter and year-over-year decrease in operating margin was due to reduced gross margins of property developments for the third quarter of 2008 and increased selling and marketing activities to promote new projects, salaries and other expenses associated with the addition of new employees, stock-based compensation amortization, and professional fees. Excluding share-based compensation expenses (non-GAAP), operating margin for the third quarter was 7.8%, compared to 12.3% and 21.6% in the second quarter of 2008 and third quarter of 2007, respectively.
Share of Income in an Equity Investee and Exchange Gains
In the third quarter of 2008, the Company recognized income in the amount of US$3.2 million from its equity investment in a 45% owned project company, Zhengzhou Jiantou Xinyuan Real Estate Co., Ltd., compared to income in the amount of US$3.7 million and US$2.2 million in the second quarter of 2008 and third quarter of 2007, respectively. Similarly, for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, the Company recognized income in the amount of US$10.5 million, compared to US$5.8 million for the same period in 2007.
In addition, the Company recognized unrealized foreign exchange gain of US$0.7 million in the third quarter of 2008, which resulted from the appreciation of Renminbi against U.S. dollar, as the Company translated certain U.S. dollar-denominated long-term debts into Renminbi for the third quarter of 2008 using the exchange rate at September 30, 2008. A US$1.5 million and US$0.8 million foreign exchange gain of the same nature was recognized in the second quarter of 2008 and third quarter of 2007, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2008, the Company recognized unrealized foreign exchange gain of US$4.4 million, compared to US$1.5 million for the same period in 2007.
Change in Fair Value of Derivative Liabilities
In the third quarter of 2008, the Company recognized a gain of US$2.0 million arising from a decrease in fair value of the warrants issued with floating rate notes, compared to a gain of US$2.8 million arising from a decrease in fair value of the warrants in the second quarter of 2008 and an expense of US$1.8 million arising from an increase in fair value of the warrants in the third quarter of 2007. For the nine months ended September 30, 2008, the Company recognized a gain of US$16.1 million arising from a decrease in fair value of the warrants, compared to a loss of US$6.2 million for the same period in 2007.
Income Taxes
Income tax expense for the third quarter of 2008 was US$3.5 million, compared to US$4.3 million and US$9.7 million for the second quarter of 2008 and third quarter of 2007, respectively. The quarter-over-quarter and year-over-year decrease was primarily attributable to decreased gross profit recognized and increased selling, general and administrative expenses charged in the third quarter of 2008, as compared to the second quarter of 2008 and third quarter of 2007. For the nine months ended September 30, 2008, the income tax expense was US$18.8 million, compared to US$20.6 million for the same period in 2007.
8
Net Income
Net income for the third quarter of 2008 was US$7.8 million, compared to US$13.2 million and US$16.0 million for the second quarter of 2008 and third quarter of 2007, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2008, net income was US$53.9 million, compared to US$37.5 million for the same period in 2007. The Company reported basic and diluted earnings per share of US$0.05 and US$0.05, or earnings per ADS of US$0.10 and US$0.10 for the third quarter of 2008, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2008, basic and diluted earnings per share were US$0.36 and US$0.27, respectively, or earnings per ADS of US$0.72 and US$0.54, respectively. Each ADS represents two common shares.
Appointment of Executive Officer
The Company recently appointed Mr. Meng Du as its chief operating officer, replacing Ms. Yuyan Yang. Mr. Du brings with him more than 10 years of executive-level experience from several respected property developers and has been involved in projects representing a combined GFA of approximately 3 million square meters. Mr. Du holds a masters degree in business administration from the Renmin University of China.
We are delighted to welcome Mr. Meng Du to our senior management team, said Mr. Zhang. Mr. Dus outstanding project execution track record and extensive experience within the real estate industry provides us with a tremendous asset as we complete our existing projects and look for new opportunities in the market.
Ms. Yang remains on the Companys board of directors and is rotating back to the position she previously held with the Company as assistant to the chief executive officer.
Outlook
Given the highly volatile and difficult credit and financial market conditions experienced at the end of the third and into the fourth quarter, along with the impact on the economy and real estate industry from slowdowns in consumer spending, business investment and the general labor market, the Company has determined that near-term revenue visibility remains limited and providing forward guidance is not prudent at this time. With a strong balance sheet, including a cash balance of approximately US$184 million and a net gearing ratio of 37% as of September 30, 2008, a disciplined land acquisition strategy and an intense focus on capital management, Xinyuan remains well positioned to capitalize on opportunities as they arise.

Non-GAAP Measures
This release contains non-GAAP financial measures, as such term is defined by the U. S. Securities and Exchange Commission. These non-GAAP financial measures, which are identified in this release, are used by management as measures of the Companys performance, and should be considered in addition to, not in isolation or as a substitute for, measures of the Companys financial performance prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). The Companys non-GAAP financial measures may be defined differently than similar terms used by other companies. Accordingly, care should be exercised in understanding how the Company defines its non-GAAP financial measures.
Reconciliations of the Companys non-GAAP measures to the nearest GAAP measures are set forth in the section below titled Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Results. These non-GAAP measures include non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP income from operations, and non-GAAP net income.
The Companys management uses certain non-GAAP financial measures to gain an understanding of the Companys comparative operating performance (when comparing such results with previous periods or forecasts) and future prospects. The Companys non-GAAP financial measures exclude certain items, including stock-based compensation charges, unrealized foreign exchange gain or loss, amortization of intangible assets, amortization of convertible debt issuance cost and charges arising from changes in fair value of derivative warrant liabilities, from its internal financial statements for purposes of its internal budgets. Non-GAAP financial measures are used by the Companys management in their financial and operating decision-making, because management believes they reflect the Companys ongoing business in a manner that allows meaningful period-to-period comparisons. The Company computes its non-GAAP financial measures using the same consistent methods from quarter to quarter. The Companys management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures can provide useful information to investors and others in the following ways: 1) in understanding and evaluating the Companys current operating performance and future prospects in the same manner as management does, if they so choose, and 2) in comparing in a consistent manner the Companys current financial results with the Companys past financial results. The Companys management further believes the non-GAAP financial measures can provide useful information to both management and investors by excluding certain expenses, gains and losses (i) that are not expected to result in future cash settlement or (ii) that are non-recurring in nature or may not be indicative of its core operating results and business outlook.
The Companys management believes excluding stock-based compensation from its non-GAAP financial measures is useful for itself and investors as such expense will not result in future cash payment and is otherwise unrelated to the Companys core operating results. The Companys management believes excluding the non-cash stock-based compensation charges, unrealized foreign exchange gain, amortization expense of intangible assets and charges resulting from changes in fair value of derivative warrant liabilities from its non-GAAP financial measure of net income are useful for itself and investors because they enable a more meaningful comparison of the Companys cash performance between reporting periods. In addition, such charges will not result in cash settlement in the future.

Note (2) On November 13, 2007, the holders of the Companys Series A convertible preference shares agreed to waive the contingent conversion option contained in the shares. The modification was deemed to be substantive and was treated for accounting purpose as an extinguishment of the Series A convertible preference shares. In connection with this, the Company recognized a dividend of approximately US$182.2 million to the Series A convertible preference shareholders, representing the difference between the fair value of the convertible preference shares immediately after the modification and the carrying value of the preference shares immediately prior to the modification. This deemed dividend did not affect the Companys net income or cash flows. However, it reduced the net income attributable to ordinary shareholders and retained earnings for the year ended December 31, 2007 by the same amount.
