Second Quarter 2025 Financial Results

REVENUE

Total net revenues increased by 32.2% to RMB4,991.5 million (US$696.8 million) from RMB3,776.7 million in the same period of 2024.

• Net product revenues increased by 34.0% to RMB4,558.7 million (US$636.4 million) from RMB3,401.8 million in the same period of 2024. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in the sales of pre-owned consumer electronics through the Company's online channels.
• Net service revenues increased by 15.4% to RMB432.8 million (US$60.4 million), compared to RMB374.9 million in the same period of 2024. This increase was primarily due to an increase in the service revenue generated from multi-category recycling business.

OPERATING COSTS AND EXPENSES

Operating costs and expenses were RMB4,918.1 million (US$686.5 million), compared to RMB3,795.3 million in the same period of 2024, representing an increase of 29.6%.

• Merchandise costs were RMB3,957.6 million (US$552.5 million), compared to RMB2,990.6 million in the same period of 2024, representing an increase of 32.3%. The increase was primarily due to the growth in product sales.
• Fulfillment expenses were RMB413.6 million (US$57.7million), compared to RMB328.3 million in the same period of 2024, representing an increase of 26.0%. The increase was primarily due to (i) an increase in personnel costs and logistics expenses as the Company conducted more recycling and transaction activities compared with the same period of 2024, and (ii) an increase in operation related expenses as the Company expanded its store networks in the second quarter of 2025.
• Selling and marketing expenses were RMB406.9 million (US$56.8 million), compared to RMB354.0 million in the same period of 2024, representing an increase of 14.9%. The increase was primarily due to (i) an increase in advertising expenses and promotional campaign related expenses, and (ii) an increase in commission expenses in relation to channel service fees. The increase was partially offset by a decrease in share-based compensation expenses and amortization of intangible assets resulting from assets and business acquisitions, due to the maturity of some intangible assets in the second quarter of 2024.
• General and administrative expenses were RMB77.5 million (US$10.8 million), compared to RMB72.5 million in the same period of 2024, representing an increase of 6.9%. The increase was primarily due to an increase in personnel cost and expected credit loss relating to credit risk. The increase was partially offset by a decrease in share-based compensation expenses.
• Technology and content expenses were RMB62.5 million (US$8.7 million), compared to RMB49.8 million in the same period of 2024, representing an increase of 25.5%. The increase was primarily due to an increase in personnel costs.

Exchange Rate Information

This announcement contains translations of certain RMB amounts into U.S. dollars at specified rates solely for the convenience of the reader. Unless otherwise noted, all translations from RMB to U.S. dollars are made at a rate of RMB7.1636 to US$1.00, the exchange rate set forth in the H.10 statistical release of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System as of June 30, 2025.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company also uses certain non-GAAP financial measures in evaluating its business. For example, the Company uses adjusted income from operations, adjusted net income and adjusted net income per ordinary share as supplemental measures to review and assess its financial and operating performance. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures 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. Adjusted income from operations is (loss) income from operations excluding the share-based compensation expenses and amortization of intangible assets resulting from assets and business acquisitions. Adjusted net income is net (loss) income excluding the share-based compensation expenses and amortization of intangible assets resulting from assets and business acquisitions and tax effects of amortization of intangible assets resulting from assets and business acquisitions. Adjusted net income per ordinary share is adjusted net income attributable to ordinary shareholders divided by weighted average number of shares used in calculating net (loss) income per ordinary share.

The Company presents non-GAAP financial measures because they are used by the Company's management to evaluate the Company's financial and operating performance and formulate business plans. The Company believes that adjusted income from operations and adjusted net income help identify underlying trends in the Company's business that could otherwise be distorted by the effect of certain expenses that are included in (loss) income from operations and net (loss) income. The Company also believes that the use of non-GAAP financial measures facilitates investors' assessment of the Company's operating performance. The Company believes that adjusted income from operations and adjusted net income provide useful information about the Company's operating results, enhance the overall understanding of the Company's past performance and future prospects and allow for greater visibility with respect to key metrics used by the Company's management in its financial and operational decision making.

The non-GAAP financial measures are not defined under U.S. GAAP and are not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools. One of the key limitations of using non-GAAP financial measures is that they do not reflect all items of income and expense that affect the Company's operations. The share-based compensation expenses, amortization of intangible assets resulting from assets and business acquisitions and tax effects of amortization of intangible assets resulting from assets and business acquisitions have been and may continue to be incurred in the Company's business and is not reflected in the presentation of non-GAAP financial measures. Further, the non-GAAP measures may differ from the non-GAAP measures used by other companies, including peer companies, potentially limiting the comparability of their financial results to the Company's. In light of the foregoing limitations, the non-GAAP financial measures for the period should not be considered in isolation from or as an alternative to income from operations, net income, and net income attributable to ordinary shareholders per share, or other financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

The Company compensates for these limitations by reconciling the non-GAAP financial measures to the nearest U.S. GAAP performance measures, which should be considered when evaluating the Company's performance. For reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, please see the section of the accompanying tables titled, "Reconciliations of GAAP and Non-GAAP Results."
