Third Quarter 2025 Financial Results
Revenues were RMB1,005.4 million (US$141.2 million) in the third quarter of 2025, compared with RMB1,154.8 million in the same period of 2024. The decrease was primarily driven by a decline in order volume amid intensified market competition.
Cost of revenues was RMB893.6 million (US$125.5 million), compared with RMB1,024.5 million in the same period of 2024. The decrease was in line with the decline in revenues.
Gross profit was RMB111.8 million (US$15.7 million), compared with RMB130.3 million in the same period of 2024. Gross profit margin was 11.1%, compared with 11.3% in the same period of 2024.
Total operating expenses were RMB97.7 million (US$13.7 million), representing an increase of 16.1% from RMB84.2 million in the same period of 2024.
Selling and marketing expenses were RMB42.9 million (US$6.0 million), remaining relatively stable compared with RMB43.9 million in the same period of 2024.
General and administrative expenses were RMB37.0 million (US$5.2 million), representing a 105.2% increase from RMB18.1 million in the same period of 2024. The increase was primarily attributable to increases in professional fees, taxes and surcharges, and share-based compensation expenses.
Research and development expenses were RMB17.7 million (US$2.5 million), representing a 20.1% decrease compared with RMB22.2 million in the same period of 2024. The decrease was primarily attributable to a reduction in staff costs.
Income from operations was RMB14.1 million (US$2.0 million), compared with RMB46.2 million in the same period of 2024.
Non-GAAP income from operations1 was RMB23.7 million (US$3.3 million), compared with RMB46.2 million in the same period of 2024.
Changes in fair value of long-term investments were RMB9.3 million (US$1.3 million), representing a 72.5% decrease compared with RMB33.8 million in the same period of 2024. The decrease was primarily attributable to the reduction in losses from the fair value measurement of long-term investments.
Other income was RMB2.5 million (US$0.3 million), compared with RMB5.8 million in the same period of 2024. The decrease was mainly due to a decrease in the amount of government grants.
Net income was RMB43.7 million (US$6.1 million), compared with RMB23.8 million in the same period of 2024.
Non-GAAP net income1 was RMB62.6 million (US$8.8 million), compared with RMB57.6 million in the same period of 2024.
Net income (loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders was RMB43.7 million (US$6.1 million), compared with a net loss of RMB13.4 million in the same period of 2024.
Non-GAAP net income attributable to ordinary shareholders1 was RMB62.6 million (US$8.8 million), compared with RMB20.4 million in the same period of 2024.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement our financial results presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we use non-GAAP financial measures, namely non-GAAP income from operations, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income attributable to ordinary shareholders, non-GAAP operating margin and non-GAAP net income margin, as supplemental measures to evaluate our operating results and make financial and operational decisions. Non-GAAP income from operations represents income (loss) from operations excluding share-based compensation expenses. Non-GAAP operating margin is equal to non-GAAP income from operations divided by revenues. Non-GAAP net income represents net income excluding changes in fair value of long-term investments and share-based compensation expenses. Non-GAAP net income margin is equal to non-GAAP net income divided by revenues. Non-GAAP net income attributable to ordinary shareholders represents net income attributable to ordinary shareholders excluding changes in fair value of long-term investments and share-based compensation expenses.
By excluding the impact of changes in fair value of long-term investments and share-based compensation expenses, which are non-cash charges, we believe that non-GAAP financial measures help identify underlying trends in our business that could otherwise be distorted by the effect of certain earnings or losses that we include in results based on U.S. GAAP. We believe that non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information about our operating results, enhance the overall understanding of our past performance and future prospects and allow for greater visibility into key metrics used by our management in its financial and operational decision-making.
Our non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to U.S. GAAP results. In addition, our calculation of non-GAAP financial information may be different from the calculation used by other companies, and therefore comparability may be limited.
Reconciliations of our non-GAAP results to our U.S. GAAP financial measures are set forth in tables at the end of this earnings release, which provide more details on the non-GAAP financial measures.
