Impacts from COVID-19

Throughout the majority of the year,the COVID-19 pandemic caused significant disruptions to and had broad ramifications on the Company's services and operations. In 2020,the Company temporarily closed its facilities in China from late January to late May. In late May,with the effective control of COVID-19 and easing guidelines and guidance from local governments,our facilities began a phased reopening. The Company took and continues to take prompt actions to combat the challenges,such as in-school health protocols,stringent cost control measures,and supportive measures for franchisees. By the end of the fourth quarter of 2020,all of the Company's directly operated kindergartens and directly operated play-and-learn centers in both China and Singapore had re-opened. Over 80% of franchised play-and-learn centers have resumed normal operations as well.

Fourth Quarter 2020 Operational and Financial Summary

Number of students enrolled at directly operated facilities was 34,011 as of December 31,2020,compared with 30,806 as of December 31,2019.

Net revenues decreased by 7.2% to $47.1 million,compared with $50.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2019.

Gross profit increased by 21.0% to $11.9 million,compared with $9.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2019.

Net income attributable to ordinary shareholders of RYB for the fourth quarter of 2020 was $9.3 million,compared with $0.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2019. Adjusted net income attributable to ordinary shareholders1 of RYB for the fourth quarter of 2020 was $10.0 million,compared with $1.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2019.

Cash used in operating activities was $2.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2020,compared with $9.3 million cash used in operating activities for the fourth quarter of 2019.

Full Year 2020 Financial Summary

Net revenues were $109.7 million,compared with $182.3 million for 2019.

Gross loss was $7.2 million,compared with a gross profit of $26.7 million for 2019.

Net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of RYB for 2020 was $37.3 million,compared with $2.4 million for 2019. Adjusted net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders2 of RYB for 2020 was $34.4 million,compared with adjusted net income of $1.4 million for 2019.

"In the fourth quarter of 2020,our directly operated kindergartens continued their reopening,and all had resumed normal operations by the end of the quarter. We were pleased to see an increase in the number of students enrolled in our directly operated kindergartens compared to the same quarter of last year,as a result of the effective control of COVID-19 and our dedicated efforts in re-ramping our facilities. Additionally,the vast majority of our franchised play-and-learn centers have resumed operations with our continued supports," said Ms. Yanlai Shi,Co-founder,Director and Chief Executive Officer of RYB. "We have also continued our efforts in our integrated online-merge-offline services by further enhancing our management and service system of kindergarten,developing a pilot management system for play-and-learn centers,and enhancing the variety of services to our extended offerings and to at-home educational content.

"Our company experienced unprecedented challenges in 2020 attributable to the COVID-19 pandemic. Since the outbreak,the government imposed various strict measures to contain the spread of COVID-19. In accordance with these requirements,we acted promptly and decisively to adjust our operations. Looking ahead,we will continue to stay on track to deliver integrated quality education services and products to our students and families and continue to strengthen the safety management supervision of facilities and the implementation of code of conduct of our staff. We firmly believe in our long-term growth potential and look forward to regaining momentum once operations across our business fully stabilize. Despite fluid changes in market conditions,our commitment to creating and bringing value to families and society remains firm," concluded Ms. Shi.

Mr. Hao Gu,Chief Financial Officer of RYB,added,"With the recovery of operations across business in the fourth quarter of 2020,the company's revenues returned to similar levels close to the same period in 2019. As the process of conversion of some directly operated kindergartens continued,there are a higher percentage of inclusive kindergartens in our directly operated kindergartens currently. Thus,there was a slight decrease in revenues from our directly operated kindergartens compared to the same period last year. However,we see a significant increase in our profit margin of the directly operated facilities. Looking back at the year of 2020,the ongoing impact of COVID-19 pandemic on the company's operations and business lasted for more than half a year. By cutting expenses and reducing costs reasonably,streamlining team structure and adjusting personnel,the company successfully overcome the challenges brought by the COVID-19 pandemic and maintained a healthy cash position by the end of the year. In 2021,the company will continue to promote streamlined and refined operations,focusing on providing quality education and improving the company's profitability. We also will hone our operational capabilities and strengthen our abilities in providing management and operational services to third-party facility operators. We look forward to having increasingly diversified sources of revenues by creating a unique online-merge-offline business model."

Fourth Quarter 2020 Financial Results

Net Revenues

Net revenues for the fourth quarter of 2020 decreased by 7.2% to $47.1 million,from $50.7 million for the same quarter of 2019.

Service revenues for the fourth quarter of 2020 decreased by 3.7% to $44.9 million,from $46.6 million for the same quarter of 2019. The decrease was primarily caused by the decrease in initial franchise fee and training fees from franchisees,which is due to the slow recovery of franchise business from the COVID-19 pandemic.

Product revenues for the fourth quarter of 2020 decreased by 47.7% to $2.1 million,from $4.1 million for the same quarter of 2019. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in the amount of merchandise sold through the Company's franchise network,which is still under recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic.

Cost of revenues for the fourth quarter of 2020 was $35.1 million,a 14.0% decrease from $40.9 million for the same quarter of 2019. Cost of revenues for services for the fourth quarter of 2020 was $33.7 million,compared with $39.1 million for the same quarter of 2019. The decrease was primarily due to decrease in staff compensation and decrease in direct cost of the Company's directly operated kindergarten business. Cost of products revenues for the fourth quarter of 2020 was $1.4 million,compared with $1.8 million for the same quarter of 2019. The decrease was generally in line with the decrease in product revenues.

Impairment loss on long-lived asset was $2.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2020,compared to nil for the same quarter of 2019.

Services revenues for the full year of 2020 were $103.1 million,compared with $166.2 million for 2019. The decrease was primarily due to the temporary closure of the Company's facilities in China caused by COVID-19 pandemic during most time of the first nine months.

Cost of services revenues for the full year of 2020 was $113.3 million,compared with $147.7 million for 2019.

The increase was primarily due to a one-off credit loss of $4.3 million for other receivables and loan receivables incurred in the fourth quarter,and was partially offset by the decrease in administrative expenses as a result of the Company's stringent cost control measures to combat the challenges by COVID-19.

Impairment loss on goodwill was $8.5 million for the full year of 2020,compared to nil for 2019. Due to the impact of COVID-19 on operations and financial results,the Company concluded that an impairment indicator existed at the end of the first quarter and the fair value of its certain reporting units,primarily those with new initiatives,were less than their carrying value. As a result of the impairment assessments,the Company determined that there was an impairment loss on goodwill of $8.5 million at the end of the first quarter 2020. The Company also performed impairment analysis at the end of fourth quarter and concluded no additional impairment loss is required as of December 31,2020.

Impairment loss on long-lived asset was $2.1 million for the full year of 2020,compared to nil for 2019. This was mainly due to the impairment loss on intangible assets arisen from the acquisition of certain new initiatives and long-lived assets of a few directly-operated kindergartens such as leasehold improvements and furniture.
