“We delivered solid operational and financial results for the second quarter of 2020.

Mr. Henry He, Chief Financial Officer of Kingsoft Cloud added that “Despite the uncertain macroeconomic environment, we are pleased to see that we are consistently delivering faster revenue growth than the general public cloud industry in China and continued to improve our bottom-line performance, as we achieving greater economies of scale. It demonstrates our ability to provide quality services to our customers even in challenging market conditions.

First, our previous guidance for the second quarter ranged from RMB1.50 billion to RMB1.54 billion.

Second quarter 2020 Financial Results

Total Revenues reached RMB1,534.8 million (US$217.2 million), an increase of 64.1% from RMB935.1 million in the same period of 2019. The increases were primarily due to the growth in both public cloud services and enterprise cloud services for our premium customers.

• Revenues from public cloud services were RMB1,287.1 million (US$182.2 million), representing an increase of 48.6% from RMB866.3 million in the same period of 2019.
• Revenues from enterprise cloud services were RMB246.1 million (US$34.8 million), representing an increase of 259.3% from RMB68.5 million in the same period of 2019.
• Other revenues were RMB1.6 million (US$0.2 million).

Cost of revenues was RMB1,454.0 million (US$205.8 million), representing an increase of 52.2% from RMB955.4 million in the same period of 2019, primarily attributable to increase in IDC costs and depreciation and amortization costs, as we continue to grow our business. IDC costs increased by 31.6% to RMB978.4 million (US$138.5 million) from RMB743.5 million in the same period of 2019. The increase in IDC costs was in line with the Company’s expanding business and was partially offset by improved efficiency and utilization of bandwidth. However, IDC costs as a percentage of total revenues decreased from 79.5% during the same period of last year to 63.8% in the second quarter of 2020. Depreciation and amortization costs increased by 59.1% to RMB217.5 million (US$30.8 million) from RMB136.7 million in the same period of 2019, primarily due to new servers and other fixed assets purchased. As a percentage of total revenues, depreciation and amortization costs decreased from 14.6% during the same period of 2019 to 14.2% in the second quarter of 2020.

Gross profit was RMB80.7 million (US$11.4 million), compared to gross loss of RMB20.3 million in the same period in 2019. Gross margin was 5.3%, representing an increase of 7.5 percentage points from -2.2% in the same period in 2019.

Non-GAAP gross profit was RMB83.8 million (US$11.9 million), compared to Non-GAAP gross loss of RMB16.5 million in the same period in 2019. Non-GAAP gross margin was 5.5%, representing an increase of 7.3 percentage points from -1.8% in the same period in 2019. The increase was primarily due to our continued leverage on economies of scale.

Selling and marketing expenses were RMB109.8 million (US$15.5 million), representing an increase of 39.0% from RMB79.0 million in the same period in 2019, mainly due to the increase in share-based compensation expenses, as well as the salaries and welfare of selling and marketing personnel.

General and administrative expenses were RMB170.4 million (US$24.1 million), an increase of 180.3% from RMB60.8 million in the same period in 2019, mainly due to the increase in share-based compensation expenses from 11.3 million in the second quarter of 2019 to 97.3 million (US$13.8 million) in the second quarter of 2020, as we recognized one-time share-based compensation upon our IPO in May 2020.

Research and development expenses were RMB230.8 million (US$32.7 million), an increase of 60.8% from RMB143.5 million in the same period in 2019, primarily due to the increase in share-based compensation expenses, as well as the salaries and welfare of research and development personnel.

Operating loss was RMB430.3 million (US$60.9 million), compared with RMB303.5 million in the same quarter of 2019.

Net loss was RMB420.1 million (US$59.5 million), compared with RMB319.7 million in the same quarter of 2019.

Non-GAAP net loss was RMB237.7 million (US$33.6 million), compared with RMB235.8 million in the same quarter of 2019.

Non-GAAP EBITDA was RMB-35.9 million (US$-5.1 million), compared with RMB-117.6 million in the same quarter of 2019. Non-GAAP EBITDA margin was -2.3%, compared to -12.6% in the same quarter of 2019. The steady increase of Non-GAAP EBITDA margin was due to the revenue growth and operating leverage. Excluding the one-time IPO-related expenses, normalized Non-GAAP EBITDA was RMB-26.8 million (US$-3.8 million) or -1.7% normalized Non-GAAP EBITDA margin.

Basic and diluted net loss per share was RMB-0.19 (US$-0.03), compared with RMB-0.36 in the same quarter of 2019.

Cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments were RMB5,763.8 million (US$815.8 million) as of June 30, 2020, compared to RMB2,198.4 million as of March 31, 2020. The increase was primarily driven by the net proceeds received from IPO in May 2020.

Outstanding ordinary shares were 3,146,466,493 as of June 30, 2020, equivalent to about 209,764,433 ADSs.

Business Outlook

For the third quarter of 2020, the Company expects total revenues to be between RMB1.67 billion and RMB1.74 billion, representing a year-over-year growth of 67% to 74%.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial information is prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). In evaluating our business, we consider and use certain non-GAAP measures, Non-GAAP gross (loss) profit, Non-GAAP gross margin, Non-GAAP EBITDA and Non-GAAP EDITDA margin, as supplemental measures to review and assess our 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. We define Non-GAAP gross (loss) profit as gross (loss) profit excluding share- based compensation allocated in the cost of revenues, and we define Non-GAAP gross margin as Non-GAAP gross (loss) profit as a percentage of revenues. We define Non-GAAP net loss as net loss excluding share-based compensation, foreign exchange (gain) loss, changes in fair value of financial instruments and other (income) expense, net. We define Non-GAAP EBITDA as Non-GAAP net loss excluding interest income, interest expense, income tax expense and depreciation and amortization, and we define Non-GAAP EBITDA margin as Non-GAAP EBITDA as a percentage of revenues. We present these non-GAAP financial measures because they are used by our management to evaluate our operating performance and formulate business plans. We also believe that the use of these non-GAAP measures facilitates investors’ assessment of our operating performance. These non-GAAP financial measures are not defined under U.S. GAAP and are not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools. One of the key limitations of using these non-GAAP financial measures is that they do not reflect all items of income and expense that affect our operations. Further, 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.

We compensate for these limitations by reconciling these non-GAAP financial measures to the nearest U.S. GAAP performance measure, all of which should be considered when evaluating our performance. We encourage you to review our financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.
