As ofMarch31,Ucommune's total number of spacescontractedunderthe Company's asset-light model had increased by 144.0% to 122 spaces located across 48 cities from 50 spaces located across 27 cities as of March31,2020.

Dr. Daqing Mao,Founder of Ucommune,commented,"In the first quarter of 2021,we continued to successfully expand our service offerings,committing to 16 new spaces and bringing 26 new spaces into operation to reach 1,000 members around the globe. Our asset-light model also continued to gain traction,with its total number of spaces under contract recording triple-digit year-over-year growth for the third quarter in a row. As such,our workspace membership services revenues increased by 16.7% from the previous quarter. As we took another step towards transforming our business and enlarging our China-widecoverage,we also benefited from the recovery trend in domestic advertising demand,which was supported by the government's effective containment of COVID-19 as well as our enhanced brand influence. We will continue to channelresources towards the development of our asset-light model,refine our services,and cultivate more vibrant communities of urban professionals to support the transformation in how people work and generate more sustainable shareholder value."

Mr. Cheong Kwok Mun,Chief Financial Officer of Ucommune,added,"We increased our net revenues beyond expectations while narrowing our adjusted net loss in the quarter. Net revenues grew by 17.5% on a year-over-year basis,despite an aggressive streamlining of our self-managed premises in the first quarter of 2020,which led to the closure of many of our unprofitable premises.More importantly,our asset-light model revenues grew by 250.6% and our asset-light model gross profit grew by 148.0%. Our unique combination of technology-enabled agile office space services and potent brand awareness enables us to provide asset owners with a highly compelling value proposition and breathe new life into urban areas throughout China. Looking ahead,we will remain focused on accelerating our business transformation to enhance our overall profitability and augment our corporate development."

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement the Company's combined and consolidated financial statements,which are prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP,Ucommune uses the following non-GAAP financial measures for Ucommune's combined and consolidated results: EBITDA (including EBITDA margin),adjusted EBITDA (including adjusted EBITDA margin) and adjusted net loss.The Company believes that EBITDA,adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net loss help understand and evaluate the Company's core operating performance.

EBITDA,adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net loss are presented to enhance investors' overall understanding of the Company's financial performance and should not be considered a substitute for,or superior to,the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of the historical non-GAAP financial measure to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. As EBITDA,adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net loss have material limitations as analytical metrics and may not be calculated in the same manner by all companies,they may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies.

In light of the foregoing limitations,you should not consider EBITDA,adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net loss as substitutes for,net loss prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company encourages investors and others to review its financial information in its entirety and not rely on any single financial measure. For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures,please see the table captioned "Ucommune InternationalLtd. Reconciliation of GAAP and Non-GAAP Results" near the end of this release.

EBITDA represents net loss before interest expense,provision for income taxes,depreciation of property and equipment and amortization of intangible assets.

Adjusted EBITDA represents net loss before (i) interest expense,other (expense)income,provision for income taxes and loss on disposal of subsidiaries and (ii)certain non-cash expenses,consisting ofshare-based compensation expense,depreciation of property and equipment,amortization of intangible assets and change in fair value of warrant liability,which we do not believe are reflective of the Company's core operating performance during the periods presented.
