First Half 2025 Unaudited Financial Results

Total revenues were RMB158.3 million (US$22.1 million), compared with RMB233.8 million in the same period of 2024. The change was primarily due to soft consumer confidence and the Company's continued strategy to refine its product selection across all categories and optimize its selection of suppliers and merchants, which had an impact on sales.

• Revenues from sales of merchandise were RMB131.7 million (US$18.4 million), compared with RMB185.0 million in the same period of 2024.
• Revenues from the marketplace business were RMB24.5 million (US$3.4 million), compared with RMB45.2 million in the same period of 2024.
• Other revenues were RMB2.1 million (US$0.3 million), compared with RMB3.6 million in the same period of 2024.

Total cost of revenues decreased by 31.2% to RMB83.5 million (US$11.7 million), or 52.7% of total revenues, from RMB121.3 million, or 51.9% of total revenues, in the same period of 2024. Revenues and cost of revenues are recognized on a gross basis. Total cost of revenues, which mainly comprises the costs related to the sales of merchandise, decreased accordingly in the first half of 2025.

Total operating expenses increased by 20.3% to RMB179.4 million (US$25.0 million) from RMB149.1 million in the same period of 2024.

• Fulfillment expenses decreased by 51.7% to RMB20.6 million (US$2.9 million), or 13.0% of total revenues, from RMB42.6 million, or 18.2% of total revenues, in the same period of 2024. The decrease was primarily due to (i) reduced warehousing and logistics expenses due to lower merchandise sales, and (ii) reduced personnel costs as a result of staffing structure refinements.
• Sales and marketing expenses increased by 5.5% to RMB50.1 million (US$7.0 million), or 31.6% of total revenues, from RMB47.5 million, or 20.3% of total revenues, in the same period of 2024. The increase was primarily due to (i) the increase in member management fees, as a result of our expanded initiatives to grow the membership base, and (ii) the increase in personnel costs as a result of adjusting staffing structure to support market expansion initiatives, partially offset by a reduction in advertising expenses.
• Technology and content expenses decreased by 40.0% to RMB15.3 million (US$2.1 million), or 9.7% of total revenues, from RMB25.5 million, or 10.9% of total revenues, in the same period of 2024. The decrease was primarily due to the reduction in personnel costs as a result of staffing structure refinements.
• General and administrative expenses increased by 178.6% to RMB93.4 million (US$13.0 million), or 59.0% of total revenues, from RMB33.5 million, or 14.3% of total revenues, in the same period of 2024. The increase was primarily due to an increase in an allowance for credit losses^[4] , partially offset by (i) the reduction in professional service expenses, as a result of our cost-saving efforts, and (ii) the reduction in personnel costs as a result of staffing structure refinements.

Loss from operations was RMB100.4 million (US$14.0 million), compared with RMB32.4 million in the same period of 2024.

Financial income, net was RMB3.9 million (US$0.5 million), compared with financial income, net of RMB25.6 million in the same period of 2024, primarily due to a decrease in the fair value changes of equity securities investments.

Net loss was RMB100.7 million (US$14.1 million), compared with RMB8.0 million in the same period of 2024.

Adjusted net loss (non-GAAP)^[3] was RMB100.5 million (US$14.0 million), compared with RMB6.7 million in the same period of 2024.

Basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to ordinary shareholders were both RMB0.05, compared with RMB0.00 in the same period of 2024.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In evaluating the business, the Company considers and uses adjusted net loss as a supplemental measure to review and assess 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. The Company defines adjusted net loss as net loss excluding share-based compensation.

The Company presents adjusted net loss because it is used by management to evaluate operating performance and formulate business plans. Adjusted net loss enables management to assess operating performance without considering the impact of share-based compensation recorded under ASC 718, "Compensation-Stock Compensation." The Company also believes that the use of this non-GAAP measure facilitates investors' assessment of operating performance.

This non-GAAP financial measure is not defined under U.S. GAAP and is not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measure has limitations as an analytical tool. One of the key limitations of using adjusted net loss is that it does not reflect all items of income and expense that affect the Company's operations. Share-based compensation has been and may continue to be incurred in Yunji's business and is not reflected in the presentation of adjusted net loss. Further, this non-GAAP measure may differ from the non-GAAP information used by other companies, including peer companies, and therefore its comparability may be limited.

The Company compensates for these limitations by reconciling the non-GAAP financial measure to the nearest U.S. GAAP performance measure, all of which should be considered when evaluating performance. Yunji encourages investors and others to review its financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.

For more information on the non-GAAP financial measures, please see the table captioned "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures to the Most Directly Comparable Financial Measures" set forth at the end of this press release.

[1].       This announcement contains translations of certain Renminbi (RMB) amounts into U.S. dollars (US$) at a specified rate solely for the convenience of the reader. Unless otherwise noted, the translation of RMB into US$ has been made at RMB7.1636 to US$1.00, the exchange rate in effect as of June 30, 2025 as set forth in the H.10 statistical release of The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

[2].       "Repeat purchase rate" in a given period is calculated as the number of transacting members who purchased not less than twice divided by the total number of transacting members during such period. "Transacting member" in a given period refers to a member who successfully promotes Yunji's products to generate at least one order or places at least one order on Yunji's platform, regardless of whether any product in such order is ultimately sold or delivered or whether any product in such order is returned.

[3].       Adjusted net loss is a non-GAAP financial measure, which is defined as net loss excluding share-based compensation expense. See "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures to the Most Directly Comparable Financial Measures" set forth at the end of this press release.

[4].       As of June 30, 2025, Short-term loan receivables of amount RMB148.0 million were included in the prepaid expenses and other current assets balance, which represent the principal and interest to be collected on loans provided by the Group to third-party companies. The decrease in prepaid expenses and other current assets as of June 30, 2025 compared to June 30, 2024 was primarily due to an increased allowance for credit losses. The increase of credit losses was driven mainly by a provision of approximately RMB69.0 million for credit losses on a short-term loan receivable extended to an independent third party. The Company has determined the loan to be probably unrecoverable and has accordingly recognized an allowance for expected credit losses.

[5].       In June 2024, the Company won the bid for a parcel of land located in Xiaoshan District, Hangzhou, China, covering approximately 10 thousand square meters (the "Hangzhou Land Parcel") and entered into an agreement with the local government to acquire the land use right of the Hangzhou Land Parcel for an aggregate consideration of approximately RMB171.5 million. In July 2024, the Company obtained the certificate of the land use right and carried the land use right at a cost of RMB176.6 million, including a tax expense of RMB5.1million, less accumulated amortization and impairment losses, if any. The Company intends to construct a new office building on the Hangzhou Land Parcel to use it as its new headquarters and also lease offices to external parties. The total amount for the land acquisition and office building construction is expected to be approximately RMB600.0 million. The Company intends to fund the land acquisition and building construction through cash on hand and bank financing.

[6].       As of June 30, 2025, the decrease in incentive payables was mainly due to derecognition of long-aged payables to inactive members.
