In 2021 (the Company's FY2022),as the COVID-19 epidemic globally spread and continuously evolved,the domestic epidemic prevention and control has entered the stage of normalization and precision. The national economy has gradually maintained an overall growth trend,and the number of outpatient clinics and surgeries in medical institutions has gradually recovered. As a leading dental medical service group in China,the Group accelerated its market expansion in FY2022,continuously improved its market share and penetration rate,and achieved good operating performance,providing a steady stream of new impetus for the high-quality and sustainable growth of its future business.

Achieve steady growth and strong resilience in oral medicine

Despite the impact of multiple rounds of epidemics,Arrail Group achieved steady growth in both revenue and adjusted net profit. In FY2022,the Group's operating revenue reached RMB1.62 billion,maintaining an increase of 7.2%,and the adjusted net profit reached RMB65.77 million,representing an increase of 18% over the previous fiscal year.

In FY 2022,the "number of stores in the steady growth period" (i.e. stores being operated for more than 6 years) of the Company has reached 61,accounting for more than 55% of the total number of stores in the Group. In the future,as more stores will enter a period of steady growth,the Group believes that the performance in terms of the business and finance will be further improved.

The management also said that with the gradual easing of the epidemic situation in Shanghai and Beijing,after the resumption of work on 1 June 2022,the backlog of previous treatment needs was released,and the Company's performance had recovered to the level of that same period of FY2021 (without the impact of epidemic),which once again proved the obvious characteristics of the industry rebound and was believed to gradually return to the growth track in the future.

With concerted efforts in dual brand strategy,the business map was expanded nationwide in an orderly manner

With the steady development of business,the Group has adopted a dual brand strategy through the Arrail Dental and Rytime Dental to provide services to customers with different economic and regional backgrounds.
