Insights

17EdTech reports 62.4% revenue decline but improved gross margin and reduced expenses amid strategic business pivot.

17 Education & Technology Group's Q2 2025 results reveal significant transformation challenges as the company shifts focus from district-level to school-based projects. Revenue fell dramatically by 62.4% year-over-year to RMB25.4 million ($3.5 million), though the company reported 17.3% sequential growth compared to Q1.

Despite the revenue decline, several positive signals emerged. Gross margin improved substantially to 57.5% from 16.0% in Q2 2024, reflecting a shift toward higher-margin subscription offerings. The company also achieved impressive cost reductions, with operating expenses down 39.3% year-over-year to RMB43.1 million, driven by workforce optimizations and reduced share-based compensation.

However, the bottom line presents a mixed picture. While net loss narrowed by 53.4% to RMB26.0 million ($3.6 million), net loss as a percentage of revenue worsened to negative 102.1% compared to negative 82.5% a year ago. This indicates the revenue decline outpaced cost-cutting measures.

Cash position remains relatively stable at RMB350.9 million ($49.0 million), down slightly from RMB359.3 million at year-end 2024. The newly announced $10 million share repurchase program suggests management believes shares are undervalued and demonstrates confidence in the company's liquidity position.

17EdTech's strategic pivot appears to be a lengthy transition. Management cites longer revenue recognition cycles for school-based projects, explaining the revenue decline. The company is betting on AI technology innovation, including the launch of "Yiqi Tongxue" intelligent agent and upgraded AI solutions in Shanghai, to drive future growth. While the subscription model shows promise with sequential growth, the extended timeline for revenue realization from school projects creates near-term financial pressure.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

17EdTech’s management uses adjusted net income (loss) as a non-GAAP financial measure to gain an understanding of 17EdTech’s comparative operating performance and future prospects.

Adjusted net income (loss) represents net loss excluding share-based compensation expenses and such adjustment has no impact on income tax.

Adjusted net income (loss) is used by 17EdTech’s management in their financial and operating decision-making as a non-GAAP financial measure; because management believes it reflects 17EdTech’s ongoing business and operating performance in a manner that allows meaningful period-to-period comparisons. 17EdTech’s management believes that such non-GAAP measure provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating 17EdTech’s operating performance in the same manner as management does, if they so choose. Specifically, 17EdTech believes the non-GAAP measure provides useful information to both management and investors by excluding certain charges that the Company believes are not indicative of its core operating results.

The non-GAAP financial measure has limitations. It does not include all items of income and expense that affect 17EdTech’s income from operations. Specifically, the non-GAAP financial measure is not prepared in accordance with GAAP, may not be comparable to non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies and, with respect to the non-GAAP financial measure that excludes certain items under GAAP, does not reflect any benefit that such items may confer to 17EdTech. Management compensates for these limitations by also considering 17EdTech’s financial results as determined in accordance with GAAP. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered superior to, in isolation from or as a substitute for results prepared in accordance with US GAAP.

Exchange Rate Information

The Company’s business is primarily conducted in China and all of the revenues are denominated in Renminbi (“RMB”). However, periodic reports made to shareholders will include current period amounts translated into U.S. dollars (“USD” or “US$”) using the exchange rate as of balance sheet date, for the convenience of the readers. Translations of balances in the consolidated balance sheets and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive loss, change in shareholders’ deficit and cash flows from RMB into USD as of and for the three months ended June 30, 2025 are solely for the convenience of the readers and were calculated at the rate of US$1.00=RMB7.1636 representing the noon buying rate set forth in the H.10 statistical release of the U.S. Federal Reserve Board on June 30, 2025. No representation is made that the RMB amounts could have been, or could be, converted, realized or settled into US$ at that rate on June 30, 2025, or at any other rate.
