Insights

The transition from a net loss in the previous year to a net income of RMB87.7 million is a significant turnaround for Smart Share Global Limited, indicating a robust recovery and potentially positive investor sentiment. The year-over-year growth in mobile device charging orders by 32.8% in Q4 and 18.7% annually suggests a strong demand for the company's services. This growth trajectory, coupled with the expansion of points of interest (POIs) and registered users, implies a successful scale-up strategy that could attract more investors looking for growth opportunities in the consumer tech sector.

Moreover, the shift towards a network partner model for POIs, now at 72.8%, may indicate a strategic move to optimize operational efficiency and reduce capital expenditure, which could improve margins and profitability in the long run. This could be an attractive point for investors who value companies with scalable and asset-light business models.

The increase in market share for Smart Share Global Limited within the mobile device charging service sector is a testament to the company's competitive positioning. The reported growth in service availability, as indicated by the rise in POIs from 997 thousand to 1,234 thousand year-over-year, highlights a strategic expansion that caters to a broader consumer base. The company's focus on user acquisition, with an impressive addition of 57.9 million users in 2023, could signal a growing brand recognition and customer loyalty which is critical for long-term success.

As the company continues to leverage its network partner model, it is essential to monitor the sustainability of these partnerships and the impact on service quality, as these factors can significantly influence consumer satisfaction and retention rates. The company's operational metrics suggest an upward trend that could create a positive outlook for stakeholders and potential investors, especially in a market that is increasingly reliant on mobile technology.

The reported financial performance of Smart Share Global Limited reflects broader economic trends, where consumer technology, especially mobile-related services, are experiencing heightened demand. The company's profitability turnaround could be indicative of effective cost management and an adaptive business model in a post-pandemic recovery phase. The strategic expansion into new POIs and the increase in power banks availability indicate a capital investment that is expected to generate future revenue streams.

However, it is important to consider the macroeconomic environment, including consumer spending patterns and competition within the tech sector, which could influence the company's performance. While the current indicators are positive, stakeholders should remain cognizant of market volatility and potential shifts in consumer behavior that could affect the company's growth trajectory.

  • As of December 31, 2023, the Company’s services were available in 1,234 thousand POIs2, compared with 1,189 thousand as of September 30, 2023 and 997 thousand as of December 31, 2022.
  • As of December 31, 2023, 72.8% of POIs were operated under our network partner model, compared with 65.5% as of September 30, 2023 and 52.5% as of December 31, 2022.
  • As of December 31, 2023, the Company’s available-for-use power banks3 were 9.2 million, compared with 8.7 million as of September 30, 2023 and 6.7 million as of December 31, 2022.
  • As of December 31, 2023, cumulative registered users4 reached 391.5 million, with 12.6 million newly registered users acquired during the quarter and 57.9 million acquired during the year.

“During 2023, our operations underwent a notable transformation after overcoming the challenges in the previous years, marked by achieving historic highs in mobile device charging orders and returning to profitability,” said Mars Guangyuan Cai, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “The expansion of our mobile device charging service network also continued to reach unprecedented levels, while our operational metrics consistently achieved new milestones across the board. Our leadership in the mobile device charging service sector continues to rise, as evidenced by an increase in market share each year since our inception. We are enthusiastic about the prospects and trajectory of the mobile device charging service sector here in China and remain unwavering in our commitment to delivering sustainable value to all of our stakeholders.”

“In 2023, our dedication to expanding our mobile device charging network remained consistent as we utilized a blend of the direct and network partner models to expand the reach of our service,” said Peifeng Xu, President. “We proactively pursued new network partners across all regions to enhance our footprint in existing regions and extend into new ones. Additionally, our direct model synergizes with the network partner model, utilizing the Energy Monster brand to establish partnerships with national and regional key accounts. The general recovery in offline traffic in 2023 paves the way for stronger growth in 2024 as we continue to leverage the strengths of both models to drive growth and profitability.”

“We continued to strengthen our balance sheet and optimize our working capital during 2023 while our operation continued to recover towards normalization,” said Maria Yi Xin, Chief Financial Officer. “The increasing contribution of the network partner model has been a positive impact on our profitability during the year. Going into 2024, we expect this trend to continue as we optimize our portfolio of POIs under the direct model. The return to profitability in each quarter of 2023 gives us the flexibility to explore different ways of delivering value to our shareholders as well as investing in new initiatives that will unlock our growth potential in the future.”

UPDATE ON CONTRACTUAL ARRANGEMENT
Starting in the second quarter of 2023, the Company has updated its contractual arrangement with its network partners under the network partner model, shifting the principal role of providing mobile device charging service from the Company to network partners. Under the new contractual arrangement, the Company generates revenue by providing mobile device charging solutions to network partners, including software and system service, billing and settlement service, customer call center service and other services. The ownership rights of cabinets and power banks under the network partner model, which were previously held by the Company, have also been transferred to the network partners under the new contractual arrangement.

Starting in the second quarter of 2023, mobile device charging revenue generated under the network partner model has therefore been recorded under mobile device charging solution, which is now net of incentive fees paid to network partners. Relatedly, all incentive fees paid to network partners have been excluded from the Company’s sales and marketing expenses under the new contractual arrangement. Due to the new contractual arrangement, the Company now also generates revenue from cabinet and power bank sales to its network partners as a result of the shift in ownership rights of the cabinets and power banks under the network partner model from the Company to the network partners, and cost of cabinets and power banks sold to the network partners will be recognized accordingly.

Starting in the second quarter of 2023, the classification of revenue has been updated accordingly to more clearly reflect the results of the two mobile device charging models. The Company’s mobile device charging operation now consists of the direct model and the network partner model. Under the direct model, the Company generates revenue by offering mobile device charging service and sales of power banks to users. Under the network partner model, the Company generates revenue by offering mobile device charging solutions and sales of power banks and cabinets to network partners.

The table below sets forth the breakdown of mobile device charging revenue components based on the latest classification for the periods indicated:

FINANCIAL RESULTS FOR THE FOURTH QUARTER OF 2023
Revenues were RMB486.6 million (US$68.5 million5) for the fourth quarter of 2023, representing a 18.3% decrease from the same period in 2022. The decrease was primarily due to the decrease in mobile device charging revenues as a result of the change in the contractual arrangement with network partners.

  • Mobile device charging revenues, which consist of revenues generated under both direct and network partner models, decreased by 20.8% to RMB465.7 million (US$65.6 million) for the fourth quarter of 2023, from RMB587.8 million in the same period of 2022.
    • Revenues generated under the direct model, which comprise of mobile device charging service fees of RMB210.9 million and power bank sales of RMB4.8 million, decreased by 19.8% to RMB215.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2023, from RMB268.8 million in the same period of 2022. The decrease was primarily due to the decrease in number of POIs operated under the direct model.
    • Revenues generated under the network partner model, which comprise of mobile device charging solution fees of RMB60.6 million and sales of cabinets and power banks of RMB189.4 million, decreased by 21.6% to RMB250.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2023, from RMB319.0 million in the same period of 2022. The decrease was primarily due to the change in the contractual arrangement with network partners. Under the new contractual arrangement, mobile device charging revenues generated under the network partner model are net of incentive fees paid to network partners. The decrease was partially offset by the increase in the sales of cabinet and power bank to network partners. 
  • Other revenues, which primarily comprise of revenue from advertising services and new business initiatives, increased by 167.7% to RMB20.9 million (US$2.9 million) for the fourth quarter of 2023, from RMB7.8 million in the same period of 2022.

Cost of revenues increased by 41.0% to RMB198.7 million (US$28.0 million) for the fourth quarter of 2023, from RMB141.0 million in the same period last year. The increase was primarily due to the increase in sales of cabinets and power banks under the new contractual arrangement with network partners, partially offset by the decrease in depreciation cost.

Research and development expenses increased by 77.1% to RMB27.6 million (US$3.9 million) for the fourth quarter of 2023, from RMB15.6 million in the same period last year. The increase was primarily due to the increase in personnel related expenses.

Sales and marketing expenses decreased by 60.8% to RMB248.8 million (US$35.0 million) for the fourth quarter of 2023 from RMB635.2 million in the same period last year. The decrease was primarily due to the decrease in incentive fees paid to network partners as a result of the change in the contractual arrangement with network partners and the decrease in incentive fees paid to location partners.

General and administrative expenses increased by 12.5% to RMB30.5 million (US$4.3 million) for the fourth quarter of 2023 from RMB27.1 million in the same period last year. The increase was primarily due to the increase in personnel related expenses.

Loss from operations for the fourth quarter of 2023 was RMB32.9 million (US$4.6 million), compared to a loss from operations of RMB233.9 million in the same period last year.

Net income for the fourth quarter of 2023 was RMB2.4 million (US$0.3 million), compared to a net loss of RMB334.5 million in the same period last year.

FINANCIAL RESULTS FOR FISCAL YEAR 2023

Revenues were RMB3.0 billion (US$416.7 million) in 2023, representing a 4.2% year-over-year increase. The increase was primarily due to (i) the increase in mobile device charging revenue as a result of the general recovery in offline foot traffic in China, and (ii) the increase in the sales of power bank and cabinet and mobile device charging solution revenue under the new contractual arrangement with network partners, which is partially offset by the decrease in mobile device charging service fees as a result of the change in the contractual arrangement with network partners.

  • Mobile device charging revenues, which consist of revenues generated under both direct and network partner models, increased by 2.0% to RMB2.9 billion (US$404.1 million) in 2023, from RMB2.8 billion in 2022.
    • Revenues generated under the direct model, which comprise of mobile device charging service fees of RMB1.1 billion and power bank sales of RMB24.7 million, decreased by 33.0% to RMB1.1 billion in 2023, from RMB1.6 billion in 2022. The decrease was primarily due to the decrease in number of POIs operated under the direct model.
    • Revenues generated under the network partner model, which comprise of mobile device charging service fees of RMB518.7 million, mobile device charging solution fees of RMB173.2 million and sales of cabinets and power banks of RMB1.1 billion, increased by 49.3% to RMB1.8 billion in 2023, from RMB1.2 billion in 2022. The increase was primarily due to the addition of revenue generated from sales of cabinets and power banks as a result of the change in the contractual arrangement with network partners, which includes a one-time recognition of RMB500.6 million in sales of cabinets and power banks to network partners during the second quarter of 2023. The increase was partially offset by the decrease in mobile device charging service fees due to the change in the contractual arrangement with network partners. Under the new contractual arrangement, mobile device charging revenue generated under the network partner is net of incentive fees paid to network partners. 
  • Other revenues, which primarily comprise of revenue from new business initiatives and advertising services, increase by 264.0% to RMB89.4 million (US$12.6 million) in 2023, from RMB24.6 million in 2022.

Cost of revenues increased by 117.2% to RMB1.2 billion (US$170.3 million) in 2023, from RMB556.9 million in 2022. The increase was primarily due to the increase in sales of cabinets and power banks under the new contractual arrangement with network partners, which includes a one-time recognition of RMB455.8 million in cost of cabinets and power banks sold to network partners. The increase was partially offset by the decrease in depreciation cost.

Research and development expenses remained relatively stable at RMB91.5 million (US$12.9 million) in 2023, compared to RMB90.7 million in 2022.

Sales and marketing expenses decreased by 44.4% to RMB1.5 billion (US$212.3 million) in 2023, compared to RMB2.7 billion in 2022. The decrease was primarily due to the decreases in incentive fees paid to network partners as a result of the change in the contractual arrangement with network partners, incentive fees paid to location partners, and personnel related expenses.

General and administrative expenses increased by 11.7% to RMB125.5 million (US$17.7 million) in 2023, compared to RMB112.4 million in 2022. The increase was primarily due to the increase in personnel related expenses.

Net income was RMB87.7 million (US$12.4 million) in 2023, compared to a net loss of RMB711.2 million in 2022.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURE
In evaluating its business, the Company considers and uses non-GAAP adjusted net income/(loss) in reviewing and assessing its operating performance. The presentation of this non-GAAP financial measure 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.

Non-GAAP financial measures are not defined under U.S. GAAP and are not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and have limitations as analytical tools.
