The solid results were primarily driven by our diversification strategy,strong omnichannel marketing capabilities,continued operating efficiency improvements,and disciplined cost optimization.

With our solid business expansion and operational efficiency improvement,our overall ROI[2] continued to improve by 8 percentage points in the first half of 2022,compared with the second half of 2021. Also,as we continued to fine-tune our cost structure and better utilize the company's resources to enhance overall productivity,our operating loss for the second quarter of 2022 further reduced significantly by 48.4% year-over-year."

"Although the COVID-19 control measures still leave some uncertainties that may continue to have impacts on certain segments of our operations for the next few quarters,we believe there will be broader policy support from the government and regulators to revive the economy. Coupled with the proven success of our diversification strategy,we are cautiously optimistic about our business performance for the second half of 2022. We will continue to push forth on our vision of 'Becoming everyone's financial partner' and will ultimately deliver better business results for next quarter," concluded Mr. Ye.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company uses adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net (loss)/income,each a Non-GAAP financial measure,in evaluating its operating results and for financial and operational decision-making purposes.

The Company believes that adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net (loss)/income help identify underlying trends in its business that could otherwise be distorted by the effect of the expenses and gains that the Company include in (loss)/income from operations and net (loss)/income. The Company believes that adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net (loss)/income provide useful information about its operating results,enhance the overall understanding of its past performance and future prospects and allow for greater visibility with respect to key metrics used by its management in its financial and operational decision-making.

Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net (loss)/income should not be considered in isolation or construed as alternatives to net (loss)/income or any other measure of performance or as indicators of the Company's operating performance. Investors are encouraged to review the historical Non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures. Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net (loss)/income presented here may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. Other companies may calculate similarly titled measures differently,limiting their usefulness as comparative measures to the Company's data. The Company encourages investors and others to review its financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.

Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA before share-based compensation expenses,investment impairment loss and investment gain of deconsolidation of subsidiaries. EBITDA represents net (loss)/income before interest,tax,depreciation and amortization.

Adjusted net (loss)/income represents net (loss)/income before share-based compensation expenses,investment impairment loss and investment gain of deconsolidation of subsidiaries.

For more information on this Non-GAAP financial measure,please see the table captioned "Unaudited Reconciliations of GAAP and Non-GAAP results" set forth at the end of this press release.

[1]Non-GAAP adjusted net loss represents net loss before share-based compensation expenses,investment impairment loss and investment gain

ofdeconsolidationof subsidiaries. There is no income tax impact of the Non-GAAP adjustment of share-based compensation expenses,

investment impairment loss and investment gain ofdeconsolidationof subsidiaries. See "UnauditedReconciliationsof GAAP and Non-GAAP

Results" at the end of this press release for more details about Non-GAAP adjusted net loss. Non-GAAP adjusted net loss margin equals Non-

GAAP adjusted net loss divided by total revenues.

[2]ROIis calculated as revenues from recommendation services,advertising and marketing services and other services divided by cost of

promotion and acquisition.

[3]In the second half year of 2021,in light of business development,the Company added a financial statement line item named cost of

promotion and acquisition and reclassified the previous line items of cost of revenue and sales and marketing expenses. Cost of promotion and

acquisition primarily consists of expenditures relating to user traffic acquisition and rewards to business partners for promotion on social

network and social media platform,which are reclassified from sales and marketing expenses,and marketing costs related to advertising and

marketing services including commissions paid to individual insurance brokers,which are reclassified from cost of revenue. Cost of operation,

post the reclassification,consists primarily of costs associated with maintenance of the platform including data acquisition costs,bandwidth

and server hosting costs,call center outsourcing costs,online payment processing fees,depreciation,payroll and other related costs of

operations. Sales and marketing expenses,post the reclassification,consist primarily of marketing expenses relating to marketing activities,

payroll costs and related expenses for employees involved in sales and marketing activities,and expenses for the portion of call center

operations that the Companyoutsources. The cost of operation,cost of promotion and acquisition,and sales and marketing expenses for prior

periods of 2021 presented in this press release have also been retrospectively reclassified. The amount reclassified from sales and marketing

expenses and cost of revenue to cost of promotion and acquisition were RMB100.0 million and RMB35.6 million for the second quarter of

2021,and RMB177.4 million and RMB49.8 million for the first half year of 2021,respectively.

[4]In June 2022,DatabookTech Ltd ("Databook"),one of the Company's subsidiaries,made a cash distribution to its shareholders,through

which the Company received a portion of the cash distribution.Databookalso issued additional shares to one minority shareholder and

changed the Company's board seat inDatabookto one director. The Company consequently became a minority shareholder ofDatabookand

no longer has control overDatabook. The investment gain of RMB6.1 million was realized in the second quarter of 2022,and additional gains,

if any,will be recognized in earnings when such gains are realized.

[5]Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA before share-based compensation expenses,investment impairment loss and investment

gain ofdeconsolidationof subsidiaries. EBITDA represents net (loss)/income before interest income and expenses,income tax benefits from

net loss and depreciation and amortization. See "UnauditedReconciliationsof GAAP and Non-GAAP Results" for more details.
