Yunji Announces Third Quarter 2022 Unaudited Financial Results

HANGZHOU,China,Nov.29,2022 -- Yunji Inc. ("Yunji" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: YJ),a leading membership-based social e-commerce platform,today announced its unaudited financial results for the third quarter ended September 30,2022[1].

Third Quarter 2022 Highlights

Total revenues in the third quarter of 2022 were RMB238.9 million (US$33.6 million),compared with RMB437.9 million in the same period of 2021. The decrease was primarily due to the Company's continued strategy to refine its product selection across all categories and optimize its selection of suppliers and merchants,causing near-term decreases in sales,and a decline in consumers' willingness to spend on discretionary products in the third quarter of 2022,compared with that in the same period of 2021[2].

Repeat purchase rate[3] in the twelve months ended September 30,2022 was 78.7%.

Mr. Shanglue Xiao,Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Yunji,said,"The challenging macro environment and ongoing strict pandemic control measures continued to act as headwinds during the third quarter of 2022. Nevertheless,we strengthened and enhanced our platform infrastructure by remaining focused on executing our product curation strategy while proactively fine-tuning our operating strategy. In addition,we further optimized our sales channels by leveraging big data analysis to improve our services. We continued to add value to our customers by providing increased support to our service managers to ensure that they always provide professional and in-depth service to our customers. Furthermore,we cultivated our vertical offerings by increasing the proportion of healthcare products with high repurchase rates and affordably-priced,high-quality products in our product mix."

"In the third quarter of 2022,we further improved our gross margin to 49.4% compared with 43.2% in the same period of 2021. At the same time,we continued to optimize our cost structure to improve operational efficiency. Going forward,we aim to maintain a healthy balance sheet by retaining our sharp focus on cost controls and cash flow management." said Mr. Peng Zhang,Yunji's Vice President of Finance.

Third Quarter 2022 Unaudited Financial Results

Total revenueswere RMB238.9 million (US$33.6 million),compared with RMB437.9 million in the same period of 2021. This decrease was primarily due to (i) the Company's continued strategy to refine its product selection across all categories and optimize its selection of suppliers and merchants,and (ii) a decline in consumers' willingness to spend on discretionary products in the third quarter of 2022 compared with that in the same period of 2021[2].

Revenues from sales of merchandise were RMB196.9 million (US$27.7 million),compared with RMB365.5 million in the same period of 2021.

Revenues from the marketplace business were RMB38.1 million (US$5.4 million),compared with RMB64.7 million in the same period of 2021.

Other revenues were RMB3.9 million (US$0.5 million),compared with RMB7.7 million in the same period of 2021.

Total cost of revenuesdecreased by 51.4% to RMB120.9 million (US$17.0 million),or 50.6% of total revenues,from RMB248.6 million,or 56.8% of total revenues,in the same period of 2021. The decrease was mainly attributable to the decline in merchandise sales,for which revenues are recognized on a gross basis. Total cost of revenues was mainly comprised of the costs related to the sales of merchandise in the third quarter of 2022.

Total operating expenses decreased by 28.5% to RMB138.5 million (US$19.5 million) from RMB193.8 million in the same period of 2021.

Fulfillment expenses decreased by 9.1% to RMB36.9 million (US$5.2 million),or 15.4% of total revenues,from RMB40.6 million,or 9.3% of total revenues,in the same period of 2021. The decrease was primarily due to (i) reduced warehousing and logistics expenses due to lower merchandise sales,and (ii) decreased service fees charged by third-party payment settlement platforms.

Sales and marketing expenses decreased by 21.5% to RMB47.0 million (US$6.6 million),or 19.7% of total revenues,from RMB59.8 million,or 13.7% of total revenues,in the same period of 2021. The decrease was mainly due to (i) the reduction in personnel costs as a result of staffing structure refinements,and (ii) a decrease in member management fees,partially offset by an increase in private label promotion expenses.

Technology and content expenses decreased by 41.7% to RMB16.6 million (US$2.3 million),or 7.0% of total revenues,from RMB28.5 million,or 6.5% of total revenues,and (ii) reduced cloud services costs.

General and administrative expenses decreased by 41.4% to RMB38.0 million (US$5.3 million),or 15.9% of total revenues,from RMB64.8 million,or 14.8% of total revenues,in the same period of 2021,primarily due to (i) reduced personnel costs as a result of staffing structure refinements,(ii) lower professional service fees,and (iii) a decrease in share-based compensation expenses.

Loss from operationswas RMB17.9 million (US$2.5 million),compared with income from operations of RMB17.6 million in the same period of 2021.

Financial income,net was RMB0.3 million (US$0.04 million),compared with financial loss,net of RMB30.1 million in the same period of 2021,primarily due to an increase in interest income,partially offset by interest expense and loss from fair value changes of equity securities investments.

Net loss was RMB38.2 million (US$5.4 million),compared with net income of RMB61.4 million in the same period of 2021.

Adjusted net loss (non-GAAP)[4]was RMB29.6 million (US$4.2 million),compared with adjusted net income of RMB76.3 million in the same period of 2021.

Basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to ordinary shareholders were both RMB0.02,compared with basic and diluted net earnings per share attributable to ordinary shareholders of RMB0.03 in the same period of 2021.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In evaluating the business,the Company considers and uses adjusted net income/(loss) as a supplemental measure to review and assess operating performance. The presentation of this non-GAAP financial measure is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company defines adjusted net income/(loss) as net income/(loss) excluding share-based compensation.

The Company presents adjusted net income/(loss) because it is used by management to evaluate operating performance and formulate business plans. Adjusted net income/(loss) enables management to assess operating performance without considering the impact of share-based compensation recorded under ASC 718,"Compensation-Stock Compensation." The Company also believes that the use of this non-GAAP measure facilitates investors' assessment of operating performance.

This non-GAAP financial measure is not defined under U.S. GAAP and is not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measure has limitations as an analytical tool. One of the key limitations of using adjusted net income/(loss) is that it does not reflect all items of income and expense that affect the Company's operations. Share-based compensation has been and may continue to be incurred in Yunji's business and is not reflected in the presentation of adjusted net income/(loss). Further,this non-GAAP measure may differ from the non-GAAP information used by other companies,including peer companies,and therefore its comparability may be limited.

The Company compensates for these limitations by reconciling the non-GAAP financial measure to the nearest U.S. GAAP performance measure,all of which should be considered when evaluating performance. Yunji encourages investors and others to review its financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.

For more information on the non-GAAP financial measures,please see the table captioned "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures to the Most Directly Comparable Financial Measures" set forth at the end of this press release.

1. This announcement contains translations of certain Renminbi (RMB) amounts into U.S. dollars (US$) at a specified rate solely for the convenience of the reader. Unless otherwise noted,the translation of RMB into US$ has been made at RMB7.1135 to US$1.00,the exchange rate in effect as of September 30,2022 as set forth in the H.10 statistical release of The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

2. According to the National Bureau of Statistics of China.

3. "Repeat purchase rate" in a given period is calculated as the number of transacting members who purchased not less than twice divided by the total number of transacting members during such period. "Transacting member" in a given period refers to a member who successfully promotes Yunji's products to generate at least one order or places at least one order on Yunji's platform,regardless of whether any product in such order is ultimately sold or delivered or whether any product in such order is returned.

4. Adjusted net income/(loss) is a non-GAAP financial measure,which is defined as net income/(loss) excluding share-based compensation expense. See "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures to the Most Directly Comparable Financial Measures" set forth at the end of this press release.

5. As of September 30,the decrease in incentive payables was mainly due to derecognition of long-aged payables to inactive members starting this year.
