It is also possible that the rotors have traces of machining oil from the factory. It wouldn't hurt to clean the rotor with some brake cleaner when uncrating a new bike. After that, bedding in the new pads is a good plan, as indicated by Detours.
If the oil is not thoroughly cleaned off, it'll burn off eventually.
