Cost of revenues increased by 10.3% to RMB67.6 million (US$9.8 million) in the fourth quarter of 2018 from RMB61.3 million in the same period of 2017.

Gross profit increased by 28.9% to RMB674.5 million (US$98.1 million) in the fourth quarter of 2018 from RMB523.4 million in the same period of 2017. The increase was primarily attributable to revenue growth. Gross margin was 90.9% in the fourth quarter of 2018.

Sales and marketing expenses increased by 5.3% to RMB526.6 million (US$76.6 million) in the fourth quarter of 2018 from RMB500.0 million in the same period of 2017. The increase was mainly due to growth in marketing and advertising expenses and payroll related costs.

Research and development expenses increased by 10.1% to RMB81.7 million (US$11.9 million) in the fourth quarter of 2018 from RMB74.2 million in the same period of 2017,primarily due to the increase in payroll costs mainly related to the hiring of new R&D staff to further enhance our technology capabilities in terms of big data,machine learning and artificial intelligence,as well as the increase of the amortization of the intangible assets in connection with acquisition.

General and administrative expenses decreased by 26.3% to RMB49.4 million (US$7.2 million) in the fourth quarter of 2018 from RMB67.0 million in the same period of 2017. The decrease was primarily due to the recognition of share-based compensation expenses of options with a listing condition upon IPO in the fourth quarter 2017,as well as partially offset by an increase in payroll costs during the fourth quarter of 2018.

Share-based compensation expenses recognized in cost of revenues,sales and marketing expenses,research and development expenses and general and administrative expenses were RMB27.1 million (US$3.9 million) in the fourth quarter 2018 and RMB106.2 million in the same period of 2017 in total.

Non-GAAP adjusted net income,which excluded share-based compensation expenses from net income,was RMB39.0 million (US$5.7 million) in the fourth quarter of 2018,compared with adjusted net loss of RMB30.3 million in the same period of 2017.
