This further solidified our position in the market. Our mission from the start has been to transform learning into a fun journey for every child. Essential to this has been our laser focus on high quality content and advanced technological capabilities, which we believe have been two cornerstones of our business growth. During the quarter, we continued to optimize our existing product offerings by adding new content and features that cater to the interests of kids and help them learn while having fun. For example, we added assorted themes to iHumanpedia, our STEM-focused product, which features animated video content that kids can easily relate to in their daily lives. We aim to further expand the content of this app by adding a growing series of topics in the future. Meanwhile, we continued to develop products that support the all-around development of children, especially their creativity, fitness, and overall interest in learning. We just launched iHuman Kids Workout, an AI-powered fitness app designed specifically for children. iHuman Kids Workout aims to provide a fun, scientific and effective way of exercising at home by combining physical fitness knowledge with fun and interactive content. Through our relentless efforts in product improvement and technology innovation, we believe we have laid a solid foundation for healthy development over the long-term.”

Ms. Vivien Weiwei Wang, Director and Chief Financial Officer of iHuman, added, “We are happy to announce another quarter of strong growth. Total revenues increased 65.1% year-over-year to RMB259.0 million. Revenues from online subscriptions grew an even faster 82.7% year-over-year to RMB220.5 million. Our self-directed apps that feature comprehensive and engaging content allow kids to learn at their own pace in a fun and dynamic manner. Leveraging our affordable pricing and ease of use, we were able to broaden our reach while making learning more inclusive. During the quarter, we continued to strategically increase our R&D investments to expand our product portfolio both horizontally and vertically. While optimizing our existing offerings, we are also developing new products to further expand our comprehensive portfolio and better support the all-around development of children. This will provide us with new growth drivers and open up additional market opportunities going forward. As a part of our commitment to raise value for our shareholders, and in recognition of our strong financial position and outlook, we are pleased to report that our Board authorized a US$10 million share repurchase program. Looking ahead, we will continue to focus our R&D efforts on supporting product enhancements and development, further advancing our technological capabilities, expanding our content library, and further improving the accessibility of our apps as we look to achieve sustainable business growth in the future.”

Exchange Rate Information

The U.S. dollar (US$) amounts disclosed in this press release, except for those transaction amounts that were actually settled in U.S. dollars, are presented solely for the convenience of the reader. The conversion of Renminbi (RMB) into US$ in this press release is based on the exchange rate set forth in the H.10 statistical release of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System as of September 30, 2021, which was RMB6.4434 to US$1.00. The percentages stated in this press release are calculated based on the RMB amounts.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

iHuman considers and uses non-GAAP financial measures, such as adjusted operating income (loss), adjusted net income (loss), adjusted net income (loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders and adjusted diluted net income (loss) per ADS, as supplemental metrics in reviewing and assessing its operating performance and formulating its business plan. The presentation of 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 accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). iHuman defines adjusted operating income (loss), adjusted net income (loss), adjusted net income (loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders and adjusted diluted net income (loss) per ADS excluding share-based compensation expenses. Adjusted operating income (loss), adjusted net income (loss), adjusted net income (loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders and adjusted diluted net income (loss) per ADS enable iHuman’s management to assess its operating results without considering the impact of share-based compensation expenses, which are non-cash charges. iHuman believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors in understanding and evaluating the Company’s current operating performance and prospects in the same manner as management does, if they so choose.

Non-GAAP financial measures are not defined under U.S. GAAP and are not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, which possibly does not reflect all items of expense that affect our operations. Share-based compensation expenses have been and may continue to be incurred in our business and are not reflected in the presentation of adjusted net income (loss) attributable to the Company’s ordinary shareholders. In addition, the non-GAAP financial measures iHuman uses may differ from the non-GAAP measures uses by other companies, including peer companies, and therefore their comparability may be limited. 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.
