Business Highlights

  • Launched the EH216F AAV and intelligent aerial firefighting solution: In July, EHang introduced the EH216F, the firefighting version of EH216.  The EH216F is the world’s first large-payload AAV for high-rise aerial firefighting.  With a peak altitude of up to 600 meters, it is superior to conventional extinguisher equipment for high-rise fires. Given significant market demand, it has attracted strong interest from emergency management departments and fire departments at national and local level in China.
     
  • Unveiled the heavy-lift EH216L AAV for aerial logistics: In September, EHang unveiled another new product, the aerial logistics version of EH216 named the EH216L.  The EH216L is a multi-rotor AAV with the record payload capacity.  This model opens up more commercial opportunities for various urban and rural aerial logistics uses that require frequent and point-to-point deliveries.
     
  • Capacity expansion to meet high demand for AAVs in China: In July, EHang announced that it will build a new AAV production facility in Yunfu, Guangdong.  This factory expands upon the current facility in Guangzhou and will support the growth of the air mobility business in China with a planned initial capacity of 600 units of passenger-grade AAVs per annum.  The Yunfu factory is designed to be an industry-leading AAV production center and will feature an R&D facility and a training center for air mobility.
     
  • Obtained the first operational flight permit for passenger-grade AAVs in North America: In July, the EH216 was awarded a Special Flight Operations Certificate issued by the Transport Canada Civil Aviation with which trial flights have been permitted and are routinely conducted in Québec province, Canada.
     
  • Joined an international project to develop an air ambulance: In August 2020, EHang was selected to join Ambular, an important international project supported by the International Civil Aviation Organization, which is dedicated to the development of a flying ambulance for emergency medical uses.

Mr. Huazhi Hu, EHang’s Founder, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented: “In the third quarter we had significant growth in revenues and gross profit, both year-over-year and quarter-over-quarter.  Notably, we have attained positive quarterly operating profitability on an adjusted basis again since last time in the fourth quarter of 2019.  This reflects our improving business operations despite the impact of COVID-19 around the world.”

Hu continued, “We are excited by the launch of two new products based on the cutting-edge EH216 passenger-grade AAV technology platform.  The EH216F and the EH216L are designed to meet strong market demand for high-rise firefighting solutions and heavy-lift aerial logistics solutions.  Both are expected to drive revenue growth in the years to come.  With increasing demand and stronger government emphasis on supporting the development of urban air mobility and unmanned civil aviation in China, we have started to ramp up our production capacity with the new facility in Yunfu. This is an important step forward as we get ourselves ready for the next phase of growth.”

“We are confident in our long-term growth prospects.  We are the recognized world leader in UAM. Further regulatory breakthroughs should drive faster growth of the global UAM market.  We are creating new use cases, increasing our air mobility operations, and most importantly, providing compelling and integrated technologies and solutions.  With the government support and relevant infrastructure upgrade, it is expected that we will receive the airworthiness certificate for EH216 in 2021 and start to provide commercial operation services,” concluded Mr. Hu.

Third Quarter 2020 Financial Results

Total Revenues

Total revenues were RMB71.0 million (US$10.5 million), up 104.3% year over year, with growth across the main revenue streams.  Air mobility solutions represented 49.0% of total revenues in the third quarter of 2020.  Sales of the EH216, the Company’s flagship passenger-grade AAV, reached 23 units, including 2 units of the EH216F, in the third quarter of 2020, compared with 18 units in the same period of 2019.

Costs of revenues

Costs of revenues were RMB29.0 million (US$4.3 million), up 84.8% year over year. The increase tracked growth in revenues.

Gross profit

Gross profit was RMB42.0 million (US$6.2 million), up 120.3% from RMB19.1 million in the third quarter of 2019.

Gross margin was 59.2%, up 4.3 percentage points from 54.9% in the third quarter of 2019. The steady increase in gross margin was mainly due to the optimization of cost structure of certain products and changes in revenue mix.

Operating expenses

Total operating expenses were RMB44.2 million (US$6.5 million), up 47.3% from RMB30.0 million in the third quarter of 2019. Operating expenses as a percentage of total revenues were 62.2%, 24.1 percentage points lower when compared with 86.3% in the third quarter of 2019. The increase in operating expenses were primarily due to higher research and development expenses related to continuous product development and increased general and administrative expenses.

  • Sales and marketing expenses were RMB8.4 million (US$1.2 million), up 35.4% from RMB6.2 million in the third quarter of 2019, as we expanded operations in European markets.
     
  • General and administration expenses were RMB16.0 million (US$2.4 million), up 65.5% from RMB9.7 million in the third quarter of 2019. The increase was mainly due to the additional expenses related to being a public company and prudent provisions related to potential COVID-19 impacts.
     
  • Research and development expenses were RMB19.8 million (US$2.9 million), up 40.0% from RMB14.1 million in the third quarter of 2019. The increase was mainly due to continued investment in new model development.  The Company had been preparing new versions of both passenger-grade AAV and non-passenger-grade AAV models, such as the newly-announced EH216F and EH216L as well as related operating systems with enhanced functionalities.

Adjusted operating expenses3 (non-GAAP)

Adjusted operating expenses were RMB37.9 million (US$5.6 million), representing an increase of 41.2% from RMB26.8 million in the third quarter of 2019. Adjusted operating expenses as a percentage of total revenues were 53.4%, compared with 77.3% in the third quarter of 2019.

Operating loss

Operating loss was RMB1.8 million (US$0.3 million), compared with operating loss of RMB10.6 million in the third quarter of 2019. Operating margin was negative 2.6%, compared with negative 30.5% in the third quarter of 2019. 

Adjusted operating profit/(loss) (non-GAAP)

Adjusted operating profit was achieved again with RMB4.5 million (US$0.7 million) compared with adjusted operating loss of RMB7.4 million in the third quarter of 2019. Adjusted operating margin was 6.4%, compared to negative 21.2% in the third quarter of 2019.

Net loss

Net loss was RMB1.1 million (US$0.2 million) compared with net loss of RMB10.2 million in the third quarter of 2019. Net margin was negative 1.5%, compared with negative 29.4% in the third quarter of 2019.

Adjusted net income/(loss) (non-GAAP)

Adjusted net income attributable to EHang’s ordinary shareholders was RMB6.1 million (US$0.9 million) with an adjusted net margin of 8.6%, compared to negative 20.7% in the third quarter of 2019.

Earnings/(loss) per share and per ADS

Basic and diluted net loss per ordinary share were both RMB0.002 (US$0.0004). Adjusted basic and diluted earnings per ordinary share4 (non-GAAP) were both RMB0.06 (US$0.01).

Basic and diluted net loss per ADS were both RMB0.004 (US$0.0008). Adjusted basic and diluted earnings per ADS5 (non-GAAP) were both RMB0.12 (US$0.02).

Business Outlook

Due to continuous uncertainties surrounding the impacts and duration of COVID-19 in China and international markets, the Company is adjusting its outlook to at least 50% annual revenues growth for full year 2020.  However, the Company has become more optimistic and confident in its long-term growth outlook given the increasing practical uses and demands for AAVs and stronger government emphasis on supporting the industry growth in the global UAM markets, especially in China. 

The above outlook is based on information available and market conditions as of the date of this press release and reflects the Company’s current and preliminary expectations, which are subject to change.

Safe Harbor Statement

This press release contains statements that may constitute “forward-looking” statements pursuant to the “safe harbor” provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements can be identified by terminology such as “will,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “aims,” “future,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “estimates,” “likely to” and similar statements. Management has based these forward-looking statements on its current expectations, assumptions, estimates and projections. While they believe these expectations, assumptions, estimates and projections are reasonable, such forward-looking statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond management's control. These statements involve risks and uncertainties that may cause EHang's actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company uses adjusted operating profit/(loss), adjusted net income/(loss), adjusted operating expenses, adjusted basic and diluted earnings/(loss) per ordinary share and adjusted basic and diluted earnings/(loss) per ADSs (the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures”) in evaluating its operating results and for financial and operational decision-making purposes. There was no income tax impact on the Company’s non-GAAP adjustments because the non-GAAP adjustments are usually recorded in entities located in tax-free jurisdictions, such as the Cayman Islands.

The Company believes that the Non-GAAP Financial Measures help identify underlying trends in its business that could otherwise be distorted by the effects of items such as share-based compensation expenses that are included in their comparable GAAP measures. The Company believes that the Non-GAAP Financial Measures provide useful information about its operating results, 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 members in their financial and operational decision-making.

Each of the Non-GAAP Financial Measures should not be considered in isolation or construed as an alternative to its comparable GAAP measure, operating margin and net margin or any other measure of performance or as an indicator of the Company’s operating performance. Investors are encouraged to review the Company’s most directly comparable GAAP measures in conjunction with the Non-GAAP Financial 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. The Company encourages investors and others to review its financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.

Exchange Rate

This press release contains translations of certain RMB amounts into U.S. dollars (“USD”) at specified rates solely for the convenience of the reader. Unless otherwise stated, all translations from RMB to USD were made at the rate of RMB6.7896 to US$1.00, the noon buying rate in effect on September 30, 2020 in the H.10 statistical release of the Federal Reserve Board. The Company makes no representation that the RMB or USD amounts referred to could be converted into USD or RMB, as the case may be, at any particular rate or at all.

Statement Regarding Preliminary Unaudited Financial Information

The unaudited financial information set out in this earnings release is preliminary and subject to potential adjustments. Adjustments to the consolidated financial statements may be identified when audit work has been performed for the Company’s year-end audit, which could result in significant differences from this preliminary unaudited financial information.
