“Large traditional medical health enterprises are choosing ECMOHO to launch new products and grow their business, and for good reason.” said Ms. Zoe Wang, co-founder and Chief Executive Officer of ECMOHO Limited. “Our efforts to launch our cross-board brand and flagship stores on Douyin platform have enabled us to become Douyin’s first-tier retail partner in its cross-border healthcare e-commerce business, while creating new growing channels for our business enterprise to succeed. Moreover, it was also rewarding to see that our cumulative paying consumers continue to increase as we leverage our CRM system, which helps customers connect with advanced healthcare products to stay healthy.”
Mr. Xin Li, Chief Financial Officer, commented, “In the first quarter of 2021,we continued to focus on brands portfolio optimization to implement our growth strategy. As a result of our strategy to optimize brand selections and certain negative news coverage relating to one brand product, our financial performance was adversely affected in the first quarter of 2021. However, we believe that this is a short-term setback, and we are committed to optimizing and diversifying our brands portfolio in order to achieve our growth strategy. More importantly, the growth momentum of services continued into 2021. Our gross margin of product sales and services both improved compared to the same quarter last year, showcasing the consistent progress we are making towards healthy profitability. To meet our operational and liquidity needs, we made a consistent efforts to engage supply chain companies with favorable terms to further improve our working capital.”
First Quarter 2021 Financial Results
Total net revenues were US$27.1 million in the first quarter ended March 31, 2021, as compared to US$61.2 million in the same quarter of last year.
Product sales revenue was US$26.4 million in the first quarter ended March 31, 2021, as compared to US$60.7 million in the same quarter of last year.
Services revenue was US$679,648, representing an increase of 54.4% from US$ 440,147 in the same quarter of last year, primarily attributable to the acquisition of new brands for our service fee model.
Cost of revenues were US$22.0 million, representing a decrease of 56.4% from US$50.4 million in the same quarter of last year. The decrease was mainly attributed to the decline in product sales.
Operating expenses were US$11.0 million, representing a decrease of 32.6% from US$16.3 million in the same quarter of last year. The decrease was mainly attributable to the decrease of fulfillment expenses and sales and marketing expenses. Detailed factors of the changes are as follows:
Operating loss was US$5.9 million, as compared to operating loss of US$5.6 million in the same quarter of last year.
Non-GAAP operating loss was US$5.1 million, as compared to Non-GAAP operating loss of US$5.3 million in the same quarter of last year, a narrowing of 3.2%.
Net loss was US$6.1 million, as compared to net loss of US$4.6 million in the same quarter of last year, as a result of the factors described above.
Non-GAAP net loss was US$5.3 million, as compared to Non-GAAP net loss of US$4.3 million in the same quarter of last year.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company uses non-GAAP financial measures in evaluating its business. For example, the Company uses non-GAAP income (loss) from operations, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income (loss), non-GAAP net margin, non-GAAP net income (loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders of ECMOHO Limited and non-GAAP net income (loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders of ECMOHO Limited per ADS, as supplemental measures to review and assess its financial and operating performance.
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 U.S. GAAP. Non-GAAP income (loss) from operations is income (loss) from operations excluding the impact of share-based compensation expenses. Non-GAAP operating margin is non-GAAP income from operations as a percentage of total net revenues. Non-GAAP net income (loss) is net income (loss) excluding the impact of share-based compensation expenses. Non-GAAP net margin is non-GAAP net income as a percentage of total net revenues. Non-GAAP net income (loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders of ECMOHO Limited is net income (loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders of ECMOHO Limited excluding the impact of share-based compensation expenses. Non-GAAP net income (loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders of ECMOHO Limited per ADS is non-GAAP net income (loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders of ECMOHO Limited divided by weighted average number of shares used in calculating net income (loss) per ordinary share multiplied by four.
The Company presents the non-GAAP financial measures because they are used by the Company’s management to evaluate the Company’s financial and operating performance and formulate business plans. Non-GAAP income (loss) from operations and non-GAAP net income (loss) enable the Company’s management to assess the Company’s financial and operating results without considering the impact of share-based compensation expenses. The Company also believes that the use of the non-GAAP measures facilitates investors’ assessment of the Company’s financial and operating performance.
The non-GAAP financial measures are not defined under U.S. GAAP and are not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools. One of the key limitations of using non-GAAP income (loss) from operations, non-GAAP net income (loss), non-GAAP net income (loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders of ECMOHO Limited, and non-GAAP net income (loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders of ECMOHO Limited per ADS is that they do not reflect all items of income and expense that affect the Company’s operations. Share-based compensation expenses have been and may continue to be incurred in the Company’s business and is not reflected in the presentation of non-GAAP income (loss) from operations and non-GAAP net income (loss). Further, the non-GAAP measures may differ from the non-GAAP measures used by other companies, including peer companies, and therefore their comparability may be limited. In light of the foregoing limitations, the non-GAAP income (loss) from operations, non-GAAP operating margin, non-
GAAP net income (loss), non-GAAP net margin, non-GAAP net income (loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders of ECMOHO Limited and non-GAAP net income (loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders of ECMOHO Limited per ADS for the period should not be considered in isolation from or as an alternative to income (loss) from operations, operating margin, net income (loss), net margin, net income (loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders of ECMOHO Limited and net income (loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders of ECMOHO Limited per ADS, or other financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
The Company compensates for these limitations by reconciling the non-GAAP financial measures to the nearest U.S. GAAP performance measures, which should be considered when evaluating the Company’s performance. For reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, please see the section of the accompanying tables titled “Reconciliations of GAAP and Non-GAAP Results.”
All quarterly results referred to in the text, tables and attachments to this press release are unaudited.
