Management Commentary
Mr. Kevin Ma, Chairman and CEO of ACG, stated, “2020 presented businesses and people all over the world with a public health crisis that nobody could have foreseen. When the seriousness of the pandemic became apparent at the beginning of 2020, ACG moved quickly to prioritize the health and safety of students and staff by ceasing all in-person instruction by early February and transitioning offline course delivery to online course delivery. While we did see some enrollment deferrals and a more significant impact on our international research-based learning services, formerly educational travel, business in the summer, we are pleased that the majority of our students continued to pursue their studies despite the challenges that came with adjusting to a remote learning method. During the fourth quarter of 2020, enrollment in our portfolio training programs remained strong at 636, which was an increase of 8.7% from the prior-year period, despite a decrease in credit hours delivered by approximately 13% to 45,434 mainly due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

“In 2020, ACG took the opportunity to upgrade technology systems that support the daily operations of Beijing Huanqiuyimeng Education Consultation Corp. (‘Huanqiuyimeng’). ACG leveraged its own experience in internal finance, management and analysis to help Huanqiuyimeng improve its accounting controls and management efficiencies during the integration process. These efforts enabled us to continue providing our students with the quality creative education they have come to expect from ACG while strengthening the growth prospects of the Company in the years to come. Several of our students have begun receiving acceptance letters from overseas institutions with more expected in the coming months.”
Outlook
Mr. Jun Zhang, President of ACG, stated, “For Fourth Quarter 2020, we are pleased to report strong enrollment numbers, which were supported by continued demand for out-of-classroom experiences, new enrollments from students of smaller institutions that have had to close their businesses during the pandemic, and the need for students to complete their portfolios before year-end application deadlines. With the public health situation in China effectively contained, we continue to offer in-person courses with an option to take some courses online. As an alternative to international educational travel, we offered domestic educational tours this past year, one of which took place in Sichuan, and offered camps that gave students an opportunity to study historical art pieces and practice classic art techniques in small groups. We also offered online bootcamps, which included academic educational learning and workshop programs as well as transferrable credit courses for undergraduate or graduate students already studying at overseas art schools we partner with. We will continue to explore the potential of new offerings and are proud to have found opportunities to increase our growth prospects in the extremely unusual year of 2020. We believe we have established a solid framework for future growth.”

GAAP Results
Notes: Impact of Huanqiuyimeng Acquisition on and Certain Adjustments to the Company’s Financial Statements
Following the completion of the Huanqiuyimeng business acquisition whereby Huanqiuyimeng became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company in 2019, the financial results presented in this press release incorporated financial contributions from Huanqiuyimeng for Fourth Quarter 2020 and Fiscal Year 2020. Please note that the prior-year period comparisons in the below financial reviews include approximately five months of contributions from the Huanqiuyimeng business as control of Huanqiuyimeng transitioned to ACG on August 6, 2019. In addition, the Company has applied acquisition accounting and made purchase price allocation (“PPA”) adjustments to various assets acquired and liabilities assumed from the Huanqiuyimeng business acquisition.
Impact of Certain Adjustments to the Company’s Financial Statements for the Quarter Ended September 30, 2020
During the annual financial reporting process for the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company reversed an RMB 34.1 million investment gain from a fair value change in one of the Company’s strategic long-term investments recorded in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, to better reflect relevant accounting rules. As a result, certain line items in the accompanying unaudited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020, in this press release have been adjusted accordingly.
Fourth Quarter 2020 Financial Review
ACG’s total net revenues for Fourth Quarter 2020 increased 12.4% to RMB60.8 million (US$9.3 million), from RMB54.1 million in the prior-year period. Net revenues for this quarter include a negative adjustment of RMB6.0 million resulting from amortization of the difference between the carrying value of deferred revenues in Huanqiuyimeng’s book and the fair value of deferred revenues assessed from the PPA process applied to the Huanqiuyimeng business acquisition (“PPA Adjustment to Net Revenues”). Revenues from portfolio training programs were RMB40.8 million, or 67.1% of total net revenues, during the period. Revenues from overseas study counselling services, other educational services and the K-12 business were RMB20.0 million, or 32.9% of total net revenues during the period.
Gross profit for Fourth Quarter 2020 increased 41.1% to RMB29.5 million (US$4.5 million), from RMB20.9 million in the prior-year period. Gross margin improved to 48.5% during the period, compared to 38.6% in the prior-year period. Excluding the PPA Adjustment to Net Revenues stated above, gross margin for Fourth Quarter 2020 would have been 53.1%.
Total operating expenses for Fourth Quarter 2020 were RMB55.4 million (US$8.5 million), compared to RMB77.0 million in the prior-year period. This decrease was primarily driven by an RMB5.8 million decrease in impairment charges related to intangible assets, as well as lower general and administrative costs due to reductions in headcount and office space made as part of a general expense savings plan launched in response to COVID-19.
Loss from operations for Fourth Quarter 2020 was RMB26.0 million (US$4.0 million), compared to RMB56.0 million in the prior-year period, primarily as a result of the increased gross profit and decreased operating expenses mentioned above.
Net loss attributable to ACG for Fourth Quarter 2020 improved to RMB24.8 million (US$3.8 million), from RMB70.9 million in the prior-year period, primarily as a result of the RMB30.0 million decrease in loss from operations mentioned above and an RMB20.7 million decrease in impairment loss of long-term investments.
For Fourth Quarter 2020, basic and diluted losses per common share attributable to ACG were both RMB0.43 (US$0.07), compared to RMB1.27 for the prior-year period. Basic and diluted losses per ADS attributable to ACG were both RMB0.86 (US$0.14), compared to RMB2.54 in the prior-year period.

Year-end 2020 Financial Review
ACG’s total net revenues for Fiscal Year 2020 were RMB162.2 million (US$24.9 million), compared to RMB97.8 million in the prior year. This increase was driven primarily by the full-year contributions from the Huanqiuyimeng business compared to approximately five months of contributions in 2019. Net revenues for the period include a negative adjustment of RMB24.0 million resulting from the PPA Adjustment to Net Revenues, as noted above. Revenues from portfolio training programs were RMB113.2 million, or 69.8% of total net revenues, during the period. Revenues from other education services and the K-12 business were RMB49.0 million, or 30.2% of total net revenues, during the period.
Gross profit for Fiscal Year 2020 was RMB63.6 million (US$9.8 million), compared to RMB35.9 million in the prior year. Gross margin was 39.2% during the period, compared to 36.7% in the prior year. Excluding the PPA Adjustment to Net Revenues stated above, gross margin for Fiscal Year 2020 would have been 47.1%, compared to 45.2% in the prior year. The margin improvement is a reflection of the results yielded by the Company’s internal cost restructuring and expense savings initiatives to increase overall operational efficiencies under the COVID-19 pandemic circumstances.
Total operating expenses for Fiscal Year 2020 were RMB171.5 million (US$26.3 million), compared to RMB154.2 million in the prior year, which included only five months of expenses related to Huanqiuyimeng operations as control transitioned to ACG on August 6, 2019.
Loss from continuing operations for Fiscal Year 2020 was RMB107.5 million (US$16.5 million), compared to RMB117.8 million in the prior year.
Net loss attributable to ACG for Fiscal Year 2020 improved to RMB92.2 million (US$14.1 million), from RMB122.3 million in the prior year. The operation performance improvement was primarily driven by the RMB10.3 million decrease in loss from continuing operations mentioned above and an RMB25.1 million decrease in long-term investment impairment.
For Fiscal Year 2020, basic and diluted losses per common share attributable to ACG were both RMB1.57 (US$0.24), compared to RMB2.52 for the prior year. Basic and diluted losses per ADS attributable to ACG were both RMB3.14 (US$0.48), compared to RMB5.04 in the prior year.
Non-GAAP Measures
Adjusted net loss attributable to ACG for Fiscal Year 2020, which excludes share-based compensation expense and foreign currency exchange loss (non-GAAP), was RMB89.4 million (US$13.7 million), compared to adjusted net loss of RMB117.5 million in the prior year.
Basic and diluted earnings per common share attributable to ACG excluding share-based compensation expense and foreign currency exchange loss (non-GAAP) for Fiscal Year 2020, were RMB1.52 (US$0.23). Basic and diluted earnings per ADS attributable to ACG excluding share-based compensation expense and foreign currency exchange loss (non-GAAP) for Fiscal Year 2020 were RMB3.04 (US$0.46).
Please see the note about non-GAAP measures and the reconciliation table at the end of this press release.
Other Data
The number of weighted average ADSs used to calculate both basic and diluted earnings per ADS for Fourth Quarter 2020 and Fiscal Year 2020 were 31.4 million and 31.3 million, respectively. Each ADS represents two common shares.
Balance Sheet Highlights
As of December 31, 2020, ACG’s cash and cash equivalents were RMB112.7 million (US$17.3 million), working capital deficit was RMB153.9 million (US$23.6 million), and total shareholders’ equity was RMB199.2 million (US$30.5 million); compared to cash and cash equivalents of RMB154.2 million, working capital deficit of RMB81.3 million, and total shareholders’ equity of RMB305.6 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2019.

Update on Share Repurchase Program

The financial information contained in this release should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s annual report on Form 20-F for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, and other filings that ACG has made with the SEC.

Currency Convenience Translation
The Company’s financial information is stated in Renminbi (“RMB”), the currency of the People’s Republic of China. The translations of RMB amounts for the quarter and nine months ended December 31, 2020, into U.S. dollars are included solely for the convenience of readers and have been made at the rate of RMB6.5250 to US$1.00, the noon buying rate as of December 31, 2020, in New York for cable transfers in RMB per U.S. dollar as set forth in the H.10 weekly statistical release of the Federal Reserve Board. Such translations should not be construed as representations that RMB amounts could be converted into U.S. dollars at that rate or any other rate, or to be the amounts that would have been reported under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).
About Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement ACG’s consolidated financial information presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, ACG uses the following non-GAAP financial measures: net income (loss) excluding share-based compensation expense and foreign currency exchange gain or loss, and basic and diluted earnings (losses) per common share and ADS excluding share-based compensation expense and foreign currency exchange gain or loss.
The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. ACG believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information about its performance by excluding share- based compensation expense and foreign currency exchange gain or loss, which may not be indicative of its operating performance.
ACG believes that both management and investors benefit from these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing its performance and when planning and forecasting future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate management’s internal comparisons to ACG’s historical performance. ACG computes its non-GAAP financial measures using a consistent method from period to period. ACG believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors in allowing for greater transparency with respect to supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision making. A limitation of using non-GAAP net income (loss) excluding share-based compensation expense and foreign currency exchange gain or loss and basic and diluted earnings (losses) per common share and per ADS excluding share-based compensation expense and foreign currency exchange gain or loss is that share-based compensation charges and foreign currency exchange gain or loss
6
have been, and are expected to continue to be for the foreseeable future, a significant recurring expense in ACG’s business.
Management compensates for these limitations by providing specific information regarding the GAAP amounts excluded from each non-GAAP measure. The table captioned “Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Measures to the Most Comparable GAAP Measures” shown at the end of this news release has more details on the reconciliations between GAAP financial measures that are most directly comparable to the non-GAAP financial measures used by ACG.
