Filing Explained

First-half 2026 included a RMB17,723 foreign-currency translation loss, making total comprehensive loss exceed reported net loss.

The company reports unaudited results for the six months ended June 30, 2026; weighted-average ordinary shares used for per-share calculations were 38,548,413 versus 3,010,123 a year earlier, so the per-share comparison uses a different reported share base.

Total Fangdd shareholders’ equity was RMB526,338 at June 30, 2026, compared with RMB578,403 at December 31, 2025, showing lower reported book equity at the interim date.

Total comprehensive loss for the period was RMB52,207, compared with net loss of RMB34,484; a RMB17,723 foreign-currency translation adjustment accounted for the difference.

Revenue RMB115,745 thousand For the six months ended June 30, 2026; down 43.1% from RMB203,394 thousand in 2025
Closed-loop GMV RMB5.5 billion For the six months ended June 30, 2026; down 30.8% from RMB8.0 billion in 2025

closed-loop GMV financial
"decrease in total closed-loop GMV facilitated on the Company’s platform by 30.8%"
value-added services financial
"due to a higher contribution from higher-margin value-added services such as asset management"
Extra products or services a company offers beyond its main product to make the overall offer more useful, convenient, or profitable — for example, warranty plans, installation, software updates, training, or premium support. Investors care because these services can raise revenue, improve customer loyalty, and boost profit margins in ways that are often steadier than one-time product sales, similar to how a gym membership plus personal training creates ongoing income beyond a single equipment purchase.
non-GAAP net loss financial
"Non-GAAP net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was RMB34.5 million"
Non-GAAP net loss is a company’s reported loss that has been adjusted by removing certain costs or one-time items that the company believes hide its core operating performance. Think of it like looking at a household budget but excluding an unusual repair or sale; it can show a clearer view of everyday results, which helps investors judge ongoing profitability, but it can also omit real expenses so it should be compared with the standard GAAP loss.
operating margin financial
"GAAP operating margin (35.28)% in 2025 and (22.39)% in 2026"
Operating margin shows how much profit a company makes from its core business activities after paying for costs like wages and materials. It’s useful because it tells you how efficiently a company is running—higher margins mean it keeps more money from each dollar of sales, which can indicate better management or stronger products.
customers’ refundable fees financial
"Customers’ refundable fees 18,163 in 2025 and 17,680 in 2026"
foreign currency translation adjustment financial
"Foreign currency translation adjustment (598) and (17,723)"
An adjustment that records the effect of changing exchange rates when a company converts the results and assets of its foreign operations into its reporting currency. It’s like converting pocket money from one currency to another and noticing its value rise or fall as exchange rates move; the adjustment doesn’t immediately affect cash but can change reported equity and periodic profit, so investors use it to judge how much currency swings are driving reported results versus core business performance.

Exhibit 99.1

 

FangDD Reports First Half 2026 Unaudited Financial Results

 

Shenzhen, China, August 28, 2026 (GlobeNewswire) - Fangdd Network Group Ltd. (NASDAQ: DUO) (“FangDD” or the “Company”), a customer-oriented property technology company in China, today announced its unaudited financial results for the six months ended June 30, 2026.

 

First Half 2026 Financial Highlights

 

Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2026 decreased by 43.1% to RMB115.7 million (US$17.1 million) from RMB203.4 million for the same period of 2025.

 

Net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was RMB34.5 million (US$5.1 million), compared to net loss of RMB39.2 million for the same period of 2025.

 

Non-GAAP net loss1 for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was RMB34.5 million (US$5.1 million), compared to non-GAAP net loss of RMB39.2 million for the same period of 2025.

 

First Half 2026 Operating Highlights

 

Total closed-loop GMV2 facilitated on the Company’s platform decreased by 30.8% to RMB5.5 billion (US$0.8 billion) for the six months ended June 30, 2026 from RMB8.0 billion for the same period of 2025. The decline of closed-loop GMV was primarily due to a fundamental shift in the supply-demand dynamics of China’s real estate market. The industry has transitioned from an era of expansion to one of consolidation, and the overall market size continues to shrink. Against this backdrop, the Company’s business has been significantly impacted.

 

Mr. Xi Zeng, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of FangDD, commented, “In the first half of 2026, China’s real estate market remained in a phase of deep adjustment and structural recovery. The industry as a whole exhibited marked regional divergence: market activity improved in first-tier cities and some core second-tier cities, but it will still take some time for the national real estate market to stabilize across the board. According to data from the National Bureau of Statistics, in the first half of 2026, the sales area and sales value of new commercial housing nationwide fell by 11.6% and 13.6% YoY, respectively. This indicates that the real estate market still faces downward pressure. Meanwhile, the inventory of unsold commercial housing has declined for four consecutive months. This indicates that despite ongoing weakness on the sales side, the inventory contraction points to a gradual recovery in demand and the emerging effectiveness of inventory-reduction policy. Against this backdrop, the Company’s core business has been periodically impacted, resulting in year-over-year declines in GMV and revenue. In response to industry changes, the Company has consistently prioritized both prudent operations and continuous innovation, actively exploring new business models and growth opportunities. We believe emerging technologies like artificial intelligence are accelerating the digital and intelligent transformation of the real estate industry. The Company will continue to deepen the integration of AI with its core businesses to enhance service quality and operational efficiency, while exploring new AI-driven business models.”

First Half 2026 Financial Results

 

REVENUE

 

Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2026 decreased by 43.1% to RMB115.7 million (US$17.1 million) from RMB203.4 million for the same period of 2025. This decrease was mainly due to the decrease in total closed-loop GMV facilitated on the Company’s platform by 30.8% to RMB5.5 billion (US$0.8 billion) for the six months ended June 30, 2026 from RMB8.0 billion for the same period of 2025, which in turn resulted from the continued property market downturn and the Company’s actions to cease business cooperation with high credit risk developers to avoid further losses caused by developer credit risk.

 

COST OF REVENUE

 

Cost of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2026 decreased by 45.7% to RMB100.4 million (US$14.8 million) from RMB184.9 million for the same period of 2025. As the Company’s revenue decreased, the commission fees paid to agents for their services in completing real estate transactions also decreased proportionally.

 

GROSS PROFIT AND GROSS MARGIN

 

Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2026 decreased by 17.1% to RMB15.3 million (US$2.3 million) from RMB18.5 million for the same period of 2025. Gross margin for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was 13.2%, compared to 9.1% for the same period of 2025. The increase in gross margin was mainly due to a higher contribution from higher-margin value-added services such as asset management services.

 

OPERATING EXPENSES

 

Operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2026, which included nil share-based compensation expenses, decreased by 54.3% to RMB41.2 million (US$6.1 million) from RMB90.2 million for the same period of 2025, which included nil share-based compensation expenses.

 

Sales and marketing expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2026 slightly decreased to RMB3.5 million (US$0.5 million) from RMB3.9 million for the same period of 2025.

 

Product development expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2026 slightly increased to RMB13.0 million (US$1.9 million) from RMB12.7 million for the same period of 2025.

 

General and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2026 decreased to RMB24.7 million (US$3.6 million) from RMB73.6 million for the same period of 2025. This decrease was primarily due to (i) the decrease of RMB43.8 million (US$6.5 million) in provision of impairment of certain assets, such as accounts receivables and other receivables of deposits resulting from the Company’s actions to cease business cooperation with high credit risk developers, and (ii) cost-reduction actions taken to improve operating efficiency in response to the expected continuation of current market conditions.

Exchange Rate

 

This press release contains translations of certain Renminbi amounts into U.S. dollars at specified rates solely for the convenience of readers. Unless otherwise noted, all translations from Renminbi to U.S. dollars, in this press release, were made at a rate of RMB6.7851 to US$1.00, the exchange rate set forth in the H.10 statistical release of the Federal Reserve Board on June 30, 2026. The Company makes no representation that the Renminbi or U.S. dollar amounts referred to could be converted into U.S. dollars or Renminbi, as the case may be, at any particular rate or at all.

 

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

To supplement the financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or GAAP, this press release presents non-GAAP income (loss) from operations, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP net margin by excluding share-based compensation expenses from income (loss) from operations and net income (loss). The non-GAAP financial measures are not defined under U.S. GAAP and are not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures are important to help investors understand the Company’s operating and financial performance, compare business trends among different reporting periods on a consistent basis and assess the Company’s core operating results, as they exclude certain expenses that are not expected to result in cash payments. Using the above non-GAAP financial measures has certain limitations. Share-based compensation expenses have been and will continue to be incurred in the future and are not reflected in the presentation of the non-GAAP financial measures, but should be considered in the overall evaluation of the Company’s results. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to financial measures prepared under GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures prepared under GAAP. The Company compensates for these limitations by reconciling these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures, which should be considered when evaluating the Company’s performance. Reconciliation of each of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is set forth at the end of this release.
