Yunji Announces Fourth Quarter and Fiscal Year 2022 Unaudited Financial Results

HANGZHOU,China,March 20,2023 -- Yunji Inc. ("Yunji" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: YJ),a leading membership-based social e-commerce platform,today announced its unaudited financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended December 31,2022[1].

Fourth Quarter 2022 Highlights

Total revenues in the fourth quarter of 2022 were RMB288.7 million (US$41.9 million),compared with RMB471.4 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 changes in consumers' consumption confidence and habits during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Repeat purchase rate[2]in the twelve months ended December 31,2022 was 81.8%.

Mr. Shanglue Xiao,Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Yunji,said,"During the fourth quarter of 2022,our platform's order volume was negatively impacted by pandemic-related restrictions in October and November 2022. Following relaxation of these restrictions,our order fulfillment was impeded due to a logistics workforce shortage caused by the rapid spread of COVID infections throughout the country. Nonetheless,our repeat purchase rate reached 81.8%,demonstrating the strength of our featured products and the continued popularity of our platform and its virtual community groups. Bolstered by the operational capabilities we honed and the valuable experience we gained during the pandemic,we are well-positioned to nimbly and prudently capture market opportunities as consumer confidence gradually recovers during 2023."

"In the fourth quarter of 2022,our continued cost structure optimizations and efficiency enhancements achieved significant results,resulting in total operating expenses decreased by 22.0% to RMB152.7 million (US$22.1 million) from RMB195.6 million in the same period of 2021. Our strong cash position and healthy financial condition provide a solid foundation for the further development of our private labels,allowing us to seize the opportunities created by the expected consumption recovery in 2023," said Mr. Peng Zhang,Yunji's Vice President of Finance.

Fourth Quarter 2022 Unaudited Financial Results

Total revenues were RMB288.7 million (US$41.9 million),compared with RMB471.4 million in the same period of 2021. The 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) changes in consumers' consumption confidence and habits during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The decrease was mainly attributable to the decline in merchandise sales,for which revenues are recognized on a gross basis.

Total revenues were RMB1,154.1 million (US$167.3 million),compared with RMB2,155.4 million in the full year of 2021. The decrease was primarily due to (i) the negative impact of the outbreaks of the highly-transmissible Delta and Omicron variants of COVID-19 in 2022 on the Company's operations,and (ii) 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.

Fulfillment expensesdecreased by 20.5% to RMB160.7 million (US$23.3 million),or 13.9% of total revenues,from RMB202.0 million,in the full year of 2021,mainly 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.

The decrease was mainly due to (i) the reduction in personnel costs as a result of staffing structure refinements,and (iii) a decrease in marketplace business platform promotion expenses,partially offset by an increase in private label promotion expenses.

Technology and content expenses decreased by 34.8% to RMB81.4 million (US$11.8 million),or 7.1% of total revenues,from RMB124.9 million,or 5.8% of total revenues,mainly due to the same factors that led to the quarterly decrease.

General and administrative expensesdecreased by 35.5% to RMB145.9 million (US$21.1 million),or 12.6% of total revenues,from RMB226.1 million,or 10.5% of total revenues,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.

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.
