We achieved steady quarter-over-quarter revenue growth for the third consecutive quarter, and demonstrated our superior operational efficiency with a sizable net operating cash inflow. Additionally, we attained profitability on both a quarterly and an annual basis, which is the culmination of our unwavering commitment to the profitable growth strategy and our relentless efforts to optimize customer experience and teaching quality. Alongside the healthy growth momentum, our organization has grown increasingly resilient and cohesive, and we are ready to deliver another year of profitability and meaningful positive net operating cashflow in 2023. Going forward, we will continue to execute our customer-centric, long-term oriented and sustainable growth strategy, to create enduring value for our students, employees and shareholders.”

 

Shannon Shen, CFO of the Company, added, “We secured sequential growth in net revenues as well as profitability during the quarter, and even more noteworthy was our strong performance in the two indicators of superior operational efficiency, gross billings and cashflow from operations. Gross billings increased by a considerable 64.3% quarter-over-quarter to approximately RMB1.0 billion, providing solid ground for topline growth in 2023. Moreover, as we recorded a net income margin of 11.2% and a non-GAAP net income margin of 13.9%, we also generated a meaningful net operating cash inflow of RMB476.7 million in the quarter, validating our continuous improvement and efficiency enhancement efforts. At the same time, our founder, Chairman and CEO Larry Chen has increased his shareholding by an aggregate of 3.6 million ADSs in 2022, highlighting management’s firm confidence in the future development of our company. As we welcome these paradigm-shifting technological advancements, we will continue to focus on optimizing teaching quality and services through comprehensive curriculum design, and leveraging cutting-edge technology to deliver a more enjoyable learning experience.”

Net Revenues

 

Net revenues decreased by 50.6% to RMB629.6 million from RMB1,274.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2021.

Cost of revenues decreased by 58.8% to RMB159.3 million from RMB386.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2021.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

The Company uses gross billings, non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP income (loss) from operations and non-GAAP net income (loss), each a non-GAAP financial measure, in evaluating its operating results and for financial and operational decision-making purposes.

 

The Company defines gross billings for a specific period as the total amount of cash received for the sale of course offerings in such period, net of the total amount of refunds in such period. The Company's management uses gross billings as a performance measurement because the Company generally bills its students for the entire course fee at the time of sale of its course offerings and recognizes revenue proportionally as the classes are delivered. For some courses, the Company continues to provide students with 12 months to 36 months access to the pre-recorded audio-video courses after the online live courses are delivered. The Company believes that gross billings provides valuable insight into the sales of its course packages and the performance of its business. As gross billings have material limitations as an analytical metrics and may not be calculated in the same manner by all companies, it may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies.

 

Non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP income (loss) from operations and non-GAAP net income (loss) exclude share-based compensation expenses, and such adjustment excludes the impact on income tax. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding its performance and liquidity by excluding share-based expenses that may not be indicative of its operating performance from a cash perspective. The Company 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 the Company’s historical performance. A limitation of using non-GAAP measures is that these non-GAAP measures exclude share-based compensation charges that have been and will continue to be for the foreseeable future a significant recurring expense in the Company’s business.

 

The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation from or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures, please see the table captioned “Reconciliations of non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP measures” set forth at the end of this release.

 

The accompanying tables have more details on the reconciliations between GAAP financial measures that are most directly comparable to non-GAAP financial measures.

The Company’s business is primarily conducted in China and a significant majority of revenues generated are denominated in Renminbi ("RMB"). This announcement contains currency conversions of RMB amounts into U.S. dollars ("USD") solely for the convenience of the reader. Unless otherwise noted, all translations from RMB to USD are made at a rate of RMB6.8972 to USD1.0000, the effective noon buying rate for December 30, 2022 as set forth in the H.10 statistical release of the Federal Reserve Board.
