Gross billings financial
"Gross billings for the second quarter reached US$39.3 million"
Gross Billings is the total amount of money a company earns from selling its products or services before any expenses or discounts are taken out. It shows how much business the company is doing overall and helps investors understand its growth or size. Think of it as the total sales receipt before deducting costs or returns.
active students with attended lesson consumption financial
"The number of active students with attended lesson consumption was approximately 138,100"
American depositary share financial
"Each ADS represents 60 Class A ordinary shares"
An American Depositary Share (ADS) is a U.S.-listed certificate that represents a specified number of shares in a foreign company, held by a custodian bank; it works like a receipt that allows U.S. investors to buy and trade foreign equity on American exchanges without dealing with another country’s markets. Investors care because ADSs make foreign stocks easier to access, improve liquidity and settlement in dollars, and can affect dividend payments, voting rights and regulatory oversight compared with buying the underlying foreign shares directly.
non-GAAP financial measures financial
"51Talk considers and uses the following measures defined as non-GAAP financial measures"
Non-GAAP financial measures are numbers companies use to show their financial performance that exclude certain expenses or income. They help investors see how the company might perform without one-time costs or other unusual items, giving a different perspective from official reports. However, since they can be adjusted, they don’t always tell the full story and should be looked at alongside standard financial figures.
share-based compensation expenses financial
"To present each of these non-GAAP measures, the Company excludes share-based compensation expenses"
Share-based compensation expenses are the accounting costs a company records when it pays employees, directors or contractors with company stock, stock options, or other equity instruments instead of cash. Investors care because these expenses reduce reported profits and can increase the number of outstanding shares, diluting ownership — like a business paying wages with gift cards that count as payroll cost and also add more gift cards in circulation.
Safe Harbor Statement regulatory
"This press release contains statements that may constitute “forward-looking” statements pursuant to the “safe harbor” provisions"
A safe harbor statement is a disclaimer that companies include in their public disclosures to limit legal liability if future results differ from what was forecasted or expected. It acts like a protective shield, helping companies avoid lawsuits if their predictions don’t come true, and gives investors a clearer understanding that certain statements are forward-looking and involve risks.
Net revenues US$32.4 million Up 58.8% year-over-year from US$20.4 million
Gross billings US$39.3 million Up 38.1% year-over-year from US$28.5 million
Gross margin 73.9% Slightly down from 74.5% a year earlier
Operating loss US$2.1 million Improved from US$3.2 million loss a year earlier
Net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders US$3.1 million Improved from US$3.5 million loss a year earlier

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

In evaluating its business, 51Talk considers and uses the following measures defined as non-GAAP financial measures by the SEC as supplemental metrics to review and assess its operating performance: non-GAAP sales and marketing expenses, non-GAAP product development expenses, non-GAAP general and administrative expenses, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP operating income/(loss), non-GAAP net income/(loss), non-GAAP net income/(loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders, and non-GAAP net income/(loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders per share and per ADS. To present each of these non-GAAP measures, the Company excludes share-based compensation expenses. 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 GAAP. For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures, please see the table captioned “Reconciliations of non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP measures” set forth at the end of this press release.

 

51Talk believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding its performance by excluding share-based compensation expenses that may not be indicative of its operating performance from a cash perspective. 51Talk believes that both management and investors benefit from these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing its performance and when planning and forecasting future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate management’s internal comparisons to 51Talk’s historical performance. 51Talk computes its non-GAAP financial measures using the same consistent method from quarter to quarter and from period to period. 51Talk believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors in allowing for greater transparency with respect to supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making. A limitation of using non-GAAP measures is that these non-GAAP measures exclude share-based compensation expenses that have been and will continue to be for the foreseeable future a significant recurring expense in 51Talk’s business. Management compensates for these limitations by providing specific information regarding the GAAP amounts excluded from each non-GAAP measure. The accompanying table at the end of this press release provides more details on the reconciliations between GAAP financial measures that are most directly comparable to non-GAAP financial measures.
