  • Store preopening and other expenses were RMB6.0 million (US$0.9 million) in the third quarter of 2021, compared to RMB2.3 million in the same quarter of 2020, mainly due to increased rental costs for new store openings.

USE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

In evaluating the business, the Company considers and uses adjusted operating income/loss and adjusted net income/loss, each a non-GAAP financial measure, in reviewing and assessing the Company’s 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. The Company presents these non-GAAP financial measures because they are used by the Company’s management to evaluate operating performance and formulate business plans. The Company believes that the non-GAAP financial measures help identify underlying trends in the Company’s business, provide further information about the Company’s results of operations and enhance the overall understanding of the Company’s past performance and future prospects.

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. The Company’s non-GAAP financial measures do not reflect all items of income and expense that affect the Company’s operations and do not represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures. Furthermore, these non-GAAP measures may differ from the non-GAAP information used by other companies, including peer companies, and therefore their comparability may be limited. The Company compensates for these limitations by reconciling the non-GAAP financial measures to the nearest U.S. GAAP performance measure, all of which should be considered when evaluating the Company’s performance. The Company encourages investors and others to review the Company’s financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.

The Company defines non-GAAP operating income/loss as operating loss excluding recurring item of share-based compensation expenses and non-recurring item of impairment loss of long-lived assets upon its occurrence, non-GAAP net income/loss as net loss excluding recurring item of share-based compensation expenses, non-recurring items inclusive of impairment loss of long-lived assets and impairment of trust investments upon their occurrence and non-GAAP net income/loss attributable to the Company’s ordinary shareholders as net loss attributable to the Company’s ordinary shareholders excluding share-based compensation expenses, impairment loss of long-lived assets and impairment of trust investments.

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

* Differences in the definition of Non-GAAP indicators between this earnings announcement and 2020 Form 20-F are contributable to the items that occurred beyond the reporting periods of this earnings announcement, including accretion to redemption value of convertible redeemable preferred shares, change in the fair value of warrant liability, provision for SEC settlement and provision for equity litigants settlement. In the third quarter of 2021, impairment loss of long-lived assets was due to normal operation, rather than unexpected events such as store closure caused by the COVID-19, therefore, removed from Non-GAAP adjustment items.
