Mr. Stanley Yongdong Peng, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of Beike, commented, “As the existing housing market plays an increasingly important role, China’s real estate industry is accelerating its transformation into a new era. We have prioritized quality and efficiency, making new strides across multiple business lines. We actively connect with quality stores in the industry and innovate the community mini-store models under our self-owned brand Lianjia , significantly enhancing our community presence and service capabilities, gradually establishing the infrastructure for a one-stop residential services platform. We deeply explore customer needs and have made numerous new attempts to enhance our online and offline service capabilities in housing transactions and our new initiatives. These include innovative ways of connecting with customers through short videos and live streaming, and providing various protections to address tenants’ core concerns.”
“In this era of transformation, we embrace new possibilities, focusing on customer experience as we actively tackle challenges. We believe that these efforts will help the Company achieve sustained growth,” concluded Mr. Peng.
Mr. Tao Xu, Executive Director and Chief Financial Officer of Beike, added, “The housing market saw a year-over-year decline in the first quarter, primarily due to the high performance from early last year as a result of the release of pent-up demands from the pandemic. However, if compared with the typical first quarter market performance, the existing home market was fairly stable in the first quarter of this year.
For performance in the first quarter, our net revenues reached RMB16.4 billion; gross margin stood at 25.2%; net income reached RMB432 million; adjusted net income was RMB1,392 million. In response to an evolving market environment, we actively advance our “one body, three wings” strategy. Revenues of home renovation and furnishing, home rental services, emerging and other services grew by 112.9% year-over-year in the first quarter, accounting for an increasing portion of our total revenue at 35% and surging by 21.7 percentage points from the same period of 2023. Revenue from home renovation and furnishing business reached RMB2.4 billion, rising by 71.1% year-over-year. Revenue from home rental services reached RMB2.6 billion, up 189.3% year-over- year. Our “one-stop residential services platform” model is further taking shape.
We remained steadfast in enhancing shareholder returns, refining the Company’s capital structure, and optimizing capital operation efficiency. In the first quarter, we allocated approximately US$220 million to share repurchases. We are committed to providing our shareholders with sustained returns, navigating through cycles together.
We will fully support our business through optimizing financial resource allocation. At the same time, we will maintain our high standards for risk management and capital allocation efficiency, contributing to the long-term development of our business.”

First Quarter 2024 Financial Results
Net Revenues
Net revenues decreased by 19.2% to RMB16.4 billion (US$2.3 billion) in the first quarter of 2024 from RMB20.3 billion in the same period of 2023. The decrease was primarily attributable to the decrease of net revenues from existing home transaction services and new home transaction services, partially offset by the increase of net revenues from home renovation and furnishing and home rental services. Total GTV decreased by 35.2% to RMB629.9 billion (US$87.2 billion) in the first quarter of 2024 from RMB971.5 billion in the same period of 2023, primarily attributable to a) the high base effect on housing transaction market in the first quarter of 2023 due to the release of pend-up demand after the ease of COVID-19 containment restrictions and the peak of transactions concentrated in February and March of 2023, and b) the sluggish new home transactions market due to weakness in both supply and demand in the first quarter of 2024.
· | Net revenues from existing home transaction services decreased by 37.6% to RMB5.7 billion (US$0.8 billion) in the first quarter of 2024 from RMB9.2 billion in the same period of 2023, primarily attributable to the decrease of the GTV of existing home transactions of 31.8% to RMB453.2 billion (US$62.8 billion) in the first quarter of 2024 from RMB664.3 billion in the same period of 2023. The difference in year-over-year change rate between the GTV of existing home transaction services and that of net revenues was primarily attributable to a higher contribution from GTV of existing home transaction services served by connected agents on the Company’s platform, for which revenue is recorded on a net basis from platform service, franchise service and other value-added services, while for GTV served by Lianjia brand, the revenue is recorded on a gross commission revenue basis. |
Among that, (i) commission revenue decreased by 40.2% to RMB4.6 billion (US$0.6 billion) in the first quarter of 2024 from RMB7.7 billion in the same period of 2023, primarily due to a decrease in GTV of existing home transactions served by Lianjia stores of 37.9% to RMB179.2 billion (US$24.8 billion) in the first quarter of 2024 from RMB288.8 billion in the same period of 2023; and
(ii) revenues derived from platform service, franchise service and other value-added services, which are mostly charged to connected stores and agents on the Company’s platform, decreased by 23.5% to RMB1.1 billion (US$0.2 billion) in the first quarter of 2024 from RMB1.4 billion in the same period of 2023, mainly due to a decrease of GTV of existing home transactions served by connected agents on the Company’s platform of 27.0% to RMB274.0 billion (US$37.9 billion) in the first quarter of 2024 from RMB375.5 billion in the same period of 2023.
4
· | Net revenues from new home transaction services decreased by 41.5% to RMB4.9 billion (US$0.7 billion) in the first quarter of 2024 from RMB8.4 billion in the same period of 2023, primarily due to the decrease of GTV of new home transactions of 45.4% to RMB151.8 billion (US$21.0 billion) in the first quarter of 2024 from RMB277.9 billion in the same period of 2023. Among that, the GTV of new home transactions completed on Beike platform through connected agents, dedicated sales team with the expertise on new home transaction services and other sales channels decreased by 46.6% to RMB121.3 billion (US$16.8 billion) in the first quarter of 2024 from RMB227.0 billion in the same period of 2023, and the GTV of new home transactions served by Lianjia brand decreased by 40.1% to RMB30.5 billion (US$4.2 billion) in the first quarter of 2024 from RMB50.9 billion in the same period of 2023. |
· | Net revenues from home renovation and furnishing increased by 71.1% to RMB2.4 billion (US$0.3 billion) in the first quarter of 2024 from RMB1.4 billion in the same period of 2023, primarily attributable to a) the increase of orders driven by the synergetic effects from customer acquisition and conversion between home transaction services and home renovation and furnishing business, b) a larger contribution from furniture and home furnishing sales (in categories such as customized furniture, soft furnishings, and electrical appliances), and c) enhanced delivery capabilities. |
· | Net revenues from home rental services increased by 189.3% to RMB2.6 billion (US$0.4 billion) in the first quarter of 2024 from RMB0.9 billion in the same period of 2023, primarily attributable to the increase of the number of rental units under the Carefree Rent model. |
· | Net revenues from emerging and other services were RMB0.7 billion (US$0.1 billion) in the first quarter of 2024, compared to RMB0.4 billion in the same period of 2023. |
Cost of Revenues
Total cost of revenues decreased by 12.0% to RMB12.3 billion (US$1.7 billion) in the first quarter of 2024 from RMB13.9 billion in the same period of 2023.
· | Commission – split. The Company’s cost of revenues for commissions to connected agents and other sales channels was RMB3.4 billion (US$0.5 billion) in the first quarter of 2024, compared to RMB5.6 billion in the same period of 2023, primarily due to the decrease in the GTV of new home transactions completed through connected agents and other sales channels. |
· | Commission and compensation – internal. The Company’s cost of revenues for internal commission and compensation decreased by 30.9% to RMB3.6 billion (US$0.5 billion) in the first quarter of 2024 from RMB5.2 billion in the same period of 2023, primarily due to a decrease in the GTV of existing home transactions and new home transactions completed through Lianjia agents. |
5
· | Cost of home renovation and furnishing. The Company’s cost of revenues for home renovation and furnishing increased by 71.1% to RMB1.7 billion (US$0.2 billion) in the first quarter of 2024 from RMB1.0 billion in the same period of 2023, which was primarily attributable to the growth of net revenues from home renovation and furnishing. |
· | Cost of home rental services. The Company’s cost of revenues for home rental services increased by 150.8% to RMB2.5 billion (US$0.3 billion) in the first quarter of 2024 from RMB1.0 billion in the same period of 2023, which was primarily attributable to the growth of net revenues from home rental services. |
· | Cost related to stores. The Company’s cost related to stores was RMB685 million (US$95 million) in the first quarter of 2024, relatively flat compared with RMB686 million in the same period of 2023. |
· | Other costs. The Company’s other costs decreased to RMB379 million (US$52 million) in the first quarter of 2024 from RMB424 million in the same period of 2023, mainly due to the decreased tax and surcharges in line with the decreased net revenues. |
Gross Profit
Gross profit decreased by 35.1% to RMB4.1 billion (US$0.6 billion) in the first quarter of 2024 from RMB6.3 billion in the same period of 2023. Gross margin was 25.2% in the first quarter of 2024, compared to 31.3% in the same period of 2023. The decrease in gross margin was primarily due to a) a higher contribution of net revenues from home rental services with a relatively lower contribution margin than other revenue streams, b) a lower contribution margin for existing home transaction services led by the decreased net revenues from existing home transaction services and relatively flat fixed compensation costs for Lianjia agents, c) a lower contribution margin for new home transaction services led by a higher commission-split as percentage of net revenues from new home transaction services paid to connected agents and other channels, and the decreased net revenues from new home transaction services with relatively flat fixed costs, and d) partially offset by a higher contribution of net revenues from home renovation and furnishing in the first quarter of 2024 compared to the same period of 2023.
Income (Loss) from Operations
Total operating expenses increased by 21.9% to RMB4.1 billion (US$0.6 billion) in the first quarter of 2024 from RMB3.4 billion in the same period of 2023.
· | General and administrative expenses increased by 24.5% to RMB2,019 million (US$280 million) in the first quarter of 2024 from RMB1,621 million in the same period of 2023, mainly due to the increase of personnel costs, provision for credit loss and share-based compensation expenses compared to the same period of 2023. |
· | Sales and marketing expenses increased by 25.5% to RMB1,624 million (US$225 million) in the first quarter of 2024 from RMB1,294 million in the same period of 2023, mainly due to the increase in sales and marketing expenses for home renovation and furnishing business in line with the growth of net revenues from home renovation and furnishing. |
· | Research and development expenses were RMB467 million (US$65 million) in the first quarter of 2024 relatively flat with RMB457 million in the same period of 2023. |
6

Operating margin was 0.1% in the first quarter of 2024, compared to 14.7% in the same period of 2023, primarily due to a) a lower gross margin due to the decreased contribution margins of existing and new home transaction services and the change of revenue structure and b) the increased contribution of net revenues from home renovation and furnishing and home rental services, which was still in the ramp-up period with a relatively lower operating margin than that of home transaction services in the first quarter of 2024, compared to the same period of 2023.

Change in Business Line Presentation
In view of the increased scale and business importance of the Company’s home rental services, the Company has decided to separately report the financials of home rental services, to help investors better understand the Company’s revenue structure and margin trends, from the first quarter of 2024 onwards, which is also in accordance with the way report to the Company’s chief operating decision maker.

Home rental services involve rental property management and operation services with respect to dispersed and centralized properties, and other rental-related services including monetization of platform traffic and online rental management services, which were previously classified mainly under the “emerging and other services” business line. For the avoidance of doubt, brokerage services relating to home rentals continue to be a part of “existing home transaction services” business line. Please see the “Unaudited Segment Contribution Measure” included in this announcement for the revised segment presentation. These changes do not affect unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations or unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company uses adjusted income (loss) from operations, adjusted net income (loss), adjusted net income (loss) attributable to KE Holdings Inc.’s ordinary shareholders, adjusted operating margin, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income (loss) per ADS attributable to KE Holdings Inc.’s ordinary shareholders, each a non-GAAP financial measure, in evaluating its operating results and for financial and operational decision-making purposes. Beike believes that these non-GAAP financial measures help identify underlying trends in the Company’s business that could otherwise be distorted by the effect of certain expenses that the Company includes in its net income (loss). Beike also believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information about its results of operations, enhance the overall understanding of its past performance and future prospects and allow for greater visibility with respect to key metrics used by its management in its financial and operational decision-making. A limitation of using these non-GAAP financial measures is that these non-GAAP financial measures exclude share-based compensation expenses 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 should not be considered in isolation or construed as an alternative to gross profit, net income (loss) or any other measure of performance or as an indicator of its operating performance. Investors are encouraged to review these non-GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP measures. The non-GAAP financial measures presented here may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. Other companies may calculate similarly titled measures differently, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures to the Company’s data. Beike encourages investors and others to review its financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.
