YJ - Yunji Announces Fourth Quarter and Fiscal Year 2020 Unaudited Financial Results

HANGZHOU, CHINA, March 22, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Yunji Inc. (“Yunji” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: YJ), a leading membership-based social e-commerce platform, today announced its unaudited financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 1 .

Fourth Quarter 2020 Highlights

  • GMV 2 in the fourth quarter of 2020 was RMB11.7 billion (US$1.8 billion), compared with RMB11.0 billion in the same period of 2019. GMV related to marketplace revenues in the fourth quarter of 2020 was RMB9.5 billion (US$1.5 billion), compared with RMB5.0 billion in the same period of 2019.

  • Total revenues in the fourth quarter of 2020 were RMB1,327.4 million (US$203.4 million), compared with RMB2,449.4 million in the same period of 2019, primarily due to an increase in the proportion of the Company’s business contributed from its marketplace business, which recognizes revenues on a net basis.

  • Transacting members 3 in the twelve months ended December 31, 2020, continued to increase to 13.3 million. The increase was mainly attributable to the Company’s ongoing refinement of its membership enrollment system since January 2020 as well as its introduction of more quality product offerings, which helped to further augment the platform’s user stickiness in the quarter.

Mr. Shanglue Xiao, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Yunji, said, “We were glad to see that our efforts to fortify and differentiate our supply chain throughout 2020 enabled us provide our service managers with more quality products to share throughout their networks. Moreover, it was also rewarding to see that our platform users were quite receptive to the initiatives that we implemented in order to provide them with a more unique and convenient social e-commerce experience.”

“We significantly reduced loss of operations in the full year of 2020 compared to the full year of 2019. Such results demonstrated the effectiveness of our operating efficiency improvement plan, which we executed over the course of the year. Going forward, we plan to maintain this steady growth momentum for our operations and to focus on bolstering our other competitive advantages over the long term,” said Mr. Chengqi Zhang, Vice President of Finance of Yunji.

Fourth Quarter 2020 Unaudited Financial Results

Total revenues were RMB1,327.4 million (US$203.4 million), compared with RMB2,449.4 million in the same period of 2019, primarily due to a decrease in revenues from sales of merchandise as a result of an increase in the proportion of the Company’s business contributed from its marketplace business. Revenues generated through the marketplace business are recognized on a net basis and contributed to marketplace revenues, while revenues generated from merchandise sales are recognized on a gross basis and contributed to sales of merchandise, net.

  • Revenues from sales of merchandise, net, decreased by 45.2% to RMB1,165.2 million (US$178.6 million) from RMB2,124.6 million in the same period of 2019. The decrease was primarily due to a portion of merchandise sales shifted to marketplace business platform as the Company continued to reallocate its internal resources to accommodate the increase of marketplace business and to further improve the operational efficiencies on the platform.

  • Revenues from the membership program were RMB0.04 million (US$0.007 million), compared with RMB145.9 million in the same period of 2019. The decrease was due to the Company’s ongoing refinement of its membership enrollment system. Beginning in January 2020, the Company has allowed any user to become a member and enjoy membership benefits free of charge for one year by simply registering for an account on the Yunji app. Revenues from the membership program in the fourth quarter of 2020 were from the deferred revenue of prior paying members.

  • Revenues from the marketplace business decreased by 10.3% to RMB151.7 million (US$23.3 million) from RMB169.2 million in the same period of 2019 due to the increase in promotional activities during the period and the decrease in commission rates charged to merchants during these promotional activities.

  • Other revenues increased by 8.2% to RMB10.5 million (US$1.6 million) from RMB9.7 million in the same period of 2019.

Total cost of revenues decreased by 46.8% to RMB986.6 million (US$151.2 million) from RMB1,854.9 million in the same period of 2019. The decrease was mainly attributable to the decline in merchandise sales, which recognize revenues on a gross basis. Total cost of revenues was mainly comprised of those costs related to the sales of merchandise revenue in the fourth quarter of 2020.

Total operating expenses decreased by 44.5% to RMB367.9 million (US$56.4 million) from RMB662.4 million in the same period of 2019.

  • Fulfillment expenses decreased by 52.5% to RMB92.5 million (US$14.2 million), or 7.0% of total revenues, from RMB194.5 million, or 7.9% of total revenues, in the same period of 2019. The decrease was primarily attributable to: (i) reduced warehousing and logistics expenses due to lower merchandise sales and improved logistics efficiency, (ii) decreased service fees charged by third-party payment settlement platforms as the Company secured lower transaction fee rates, (iii) reduced personnel costs due to headcount optimization and (iv) decreased share-based compensation expenses, which included a reversal of RMB6.0 million in share-based compensation expenses that had been recognized in prior periods.

  • Sales and marketing expenses decreased by 45.4% to RMB167.2 million (US$25.6 million), or 12.6% of total revenues, from RMB306.5 million, or 12.5% of total revenues, in the same period of 2019. The decrease was mainly due to the reduction in member management fees as a result of the Company’s improvements to its member management efficiency. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in business promotion expenses, which resulted from the Company’s efforts to attract more popular brands and merchants to its marketplace business through the execution of more business development activities.

  • Technology and content expenses decreased by 41.3% to RMB44.0 million (US$6.7 million), or 3.3% of total revenues, from RMB74.9 million, or 3.1% of total revenues, in the same period of 2019. The decrease was mainly due to: (i) reduced server costs resulting from the better contract terms that the Company secured with its server providers, and (ii) reduced personnel costs as a result of headcount optimization.

  • General and administrative expenses decreased by 25.8% to RMB64.2 million (US$9.8 million), or 4.8% of total revenues, from RMB86.5 million, or 3.5% of total revenues, in the same period of 2019. The decrease was mainly due to reduced personnel costs as a result of headcount optimization, and decreased share-based compensation expenses, which included a reversal of RMB3.1 million in share-based compensation expenses that had been recognized in prior periods. The decrease was partially offset by higher professional service fees.

Loss from operations was RMB21.8 million (US$3.3 million), compared with RMB46.9 million in the same period of 2019.

Net loss was RMB77.3 million (US$11.9 million), compared with RMB4.9 million in the same period of 2019. The difference from loss from operations to net loss was mainly attributable to the income tax expenses provided during the period.

Adjusted net loss 4 was RMB63.1 million (US$9.6 million), compared with adjusted net income RMB25.3 million in the same period of 2019.

Basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to ordinary shareholders were both RMB0.04 (US$0.01), compared with RMB0.002 in the same period of 2019.

Fiscal Year 2020 Unaudited Financial Results

Total revenues were RMB5,530.3 million (US$847.5 million), compared with RMB11,672.0 million in the full year of 2019, which was primarily due to the same factors that led to the quarterly decrease.

  • Revenues from sales of merchandise, net decreased by 54.2% to RMB4,829.4 million (US$740.1 million) from RMB10,548.3 million in the full year of 2019. The decrease was due to the same factors that led to the quarterly decrease.

  • Revenues from the membership program decreased by 94.5% to RMB42.4 million (US$6.5 million) from RMB776.8 million in the full year of 2019, which was due to the same factors that led to the quarterly decrease.

  • Revenues from the marketplace business increased by 92.3% to RMB599.9 million (US$91.9 million) from RMB311.9 million in the full year of 2019 as a result of the increased number of popular brands and merchants on the Company's platform and the increased sales through a diverse range of sales channels on other platforms.

  • Other revenues increased by 67.5% to RMB58.5 million (US$9.0 million) from RMB34.9 million in the full year of 2019.

Total costs of revenues decreased by 57.4% to RMB3,940.0 million (US$603.8 million) from RMB9,249.5 million in the full year of 2019. This decrease was mainly attributable to the same factors that led to the quarterly decrease.

Recent Developments

Mr. Hui Ma will resign from his position as the Company's Chief People Officer and Chief Strategy Officer due to personal reasons, effective April 1, 2021. Mr. Ma will continue to serve as a consultant to the Company following his resignation. Mr. Ma’s resignation did not result from any disagreement with the Company. The Company is grateful for Mr. Ma’s valuable contribution to the Company during his term with the Company, in particular his contribution to the Company's strategic positioning, and wishes his continued success in the future.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In evaluating the business, the Company considers and uses adjusted net income/(loss) as a supplemental measure to review and assess operating performance. The presentation of this non-GAAP financial measure is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company defines adjusted net income/(loss) as net income/(loss) excluding share-based compensation.

The Company presents adjusted net income/(loss) because it is used by management to evaluate operating performance and formulate business plans. Adjusted net income/(loss) enables management to assess operating performance without considering the impact of share-based compensation recorded under ASC 718, “Compensation-Stock Compensation”. The Company also believes that the use of this non-GAAP measure facilitates investors’ assessment of operating performance.

This non-GAAP financial measure is not defined under U.S. GAAP and is not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measure has limitations as an analytical tool. One of the key limitations of using adjusted net income/(loss) is that it does not reflect all items of income and expense that affect the Company’s operations. Share-based compensation has been and may continue to be incurred in Yunji’s business and is not reflected in the presentation of adjusted net income/(loss). Further, this non-GAAP measure may differ from the non-GAAP information used by other companies, including peer companies, and therefore its comparability may be limited.

The Company compensates for these limitations by reconciling the non-GAAP financial measure to the nearest U.S. GAAP performance measure, all of which should be considered when evaluating performance. Yunji encourages investors and others to review its financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.

For more information on the non-GAAP financial measures, please see the table captioned “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures to The Most Directly Comparable Financial Measures” set forth at the end of this press release.

This announcement contains translations of certain Renminbi (RMB) amounts into U.S. dollars (US$) at a specified rate solely for the convenience of the reader. Unless otherwise noted, the translation of RMB into US$ has been made at RMB6.5250 to US$1.00, the exchange rate in effect as of the end of December 2020 as set forth in the H.10 statistical release of The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.
2.
“GMV” refers to the total value of all orders for merchandise placed in the Company’s merchandise business and marketplace business, including the value of the merchandise sold as part of the membership packages, as well as the VAT and tax surcharges paid, regardless of whether the merchandises are returned and without taking into consideration any discounts and incentives. GMV includes the value from orders placed on the Company’s mobile apps as well as orders placed on third-party mobile apps and websites that are fulfilled by Yunji, by Yunji’s third-party merchants, or by Yunji’s third-party business partners. Yunji’s revenues recognized on a gross basis are net of the VAT and related tax surcharges paid, discounts and incentives, the value of the merchandises returned, and any adjustments due to the timing difference between shipping and receipt, which are included in the above GMV measure. Yunji’s revenues recognized on a net basis are net of the corresponding amount to be paid to the vendor, the principal in the transaction, in addition to the items mentioned above, which are included in the above GMV measure.
3.
“Transacting member” in a given period refers to a member who successfully promotes Yunji’s products to generate at least one order or places at least one order on Yunji’s platform, regardless of whether any product in such order is ultimately sold or delivered or whether any product in such order is returned.
4.
Adjusted net income/(loss) is a non-GAAP financial measure, which is defined as net income/(loss) excluding share-based compensation expense. See “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures to The Most Directly Comparable Financial Measures” set forth at the end of this press release.
5.
Starting from 2020, the Company presents government grants, which are received from local government to support and reward the Company's ongoing business and operations, as Other operating income. The relevant item in the prior year periods of RMB7,518 and RMB43,599 for the three months and year ended December 31, 2019 are also reclassified from Other non-operating income, net, to be in conformity with the current period presentation in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive loss.
6.
The estimation of refunds payable to members is based upon the historical data of referral incentives earned by referring members within their active life cycle. On a quarterly basis, the Company revisits the estimation with a consistently applied approach and the most up-to-date data. The balance of refund payable to members reflected the best estimation of the Company as of December 31, 2020, and the decrease as compared to the balance as of December 31, 2019 was consistent with the Company’s understanding of its members’ referral behavior in light of its ongoing refinement of its membership enrollment system and decrease of refunds payable to members of RMB0.4 million and 23.5 million resulting from a change in the estimated amount of that liability, which represented the positive revenue and income/(loss) from operations impact fourth quarter and full year of 2020, respectively.
7.
Income tax expense for the fourth quarter of 2020 was RMB43.9 million (US$6.7 million), compared to Income tax benefit RMB4.8 million in the same period of 2019. The Company’s effective tax rate was changed primarily due to changes in the profitability of its subsidiaries that have different tax rates, including non-deductible share-based compensation expenses, and increased valuation allowance as the Company will not be able to utilize tax loss carry forwards generated by certain unprofitable subsidiaries.
8.
As of December 31, 2020, the balance of long-term investment mainly represented an equity security with readily determinable fair value, which was remeasured based upon market price at each period end and recorded the unrealized changes in Financial income/(loss), net, in the Consolidation Statements of Comprehensive Loss.
9.
The decrease of share-based compensation expenses was mainly due to the reversal of previously recognized share-based compensation expenses in a total amount of RMB10.9 million and 42.2 million as a result of headcount optimization, in which RMB6.0 million and 8.9 million, RMB3.1 million and 25.9 million, RMB1.5 million and RMB3.0 million, RMB0.3 million and RMB4.5 million were recorded previously in fulfillment expenses, general and administrative expenses, sales and marketing expenses, and technology and content expenses, for the fourth quarter and full year of 2020, respectively.
