Total Revenues reached RMB2,173.7 million (US$336.7 million), representing an accelerated increase of 41.6% from RMB1,534.8 million in the same period of 2020. The increases were due to the growth in both public cloud services and enterprise cloud services for our premium customers.

Unless otherwise noted, the translation of RMB into US$ has been made at RMB6.4566 to US$1.00, the noon buying rate in effect on June 30, 2021 as certified for customs purposes by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.

² Non-GAAP gross profit is defined as gross profit excluding share-based compensation allocated in the cost of revenues and we define Non-GAAP gross margin as Non-GAAP gross profit as a percentage of revenues. See “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” set forth at the end of this press release.

Cost of revenues was RMB2,055.2 million (US$318.3 million), representing an increase of 41.3% from RMB1,454.0 million in the same period of 2020, which is in line with strong top-line growth. IDC costs increased by 28.3% to RMB1,255.5 million (US$194.5 million) from RMB978.4 million in the same period of 2020. 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. Depreciation and amortization costs was RMB183.1million (US$28.4 million), compared with RMB217.5 million in the same period of 2020.

Gross profit increased by 46.8% to RMB118.5 million (US$18.4 million), from RMB80.7 million in the same period in 2020. Gross margin was 5.5%, compared with 5.3% in the same period in 2020.

Non-GAAP gross profit increased by 44.9% to RMB121.4 million (US$18.8 million), from RMB83.8 million in the same period in 2020. Non-GAAP gross margin was 5.6%, compared with 5.5% in the same period in 2020. The increase was primarily due to our continued leverage on economies of scale, and partially offset by our ongoing investments into enterprise cloud.

Selling and marketing expenses were RMB96.1 million (US$14.9 million), representing a decrease of 12.5% from RMB109.8 million in the same period in 2020, mainly due to a decrease in share-based compensation expenses, as we recorded one-off share-based compensation and marketing expenses upon the completion of IPO in the second quarter in 2020.

General and administrative expenses were RMB110.6 million (US$17.1 million), representing a decrease of 35.1% from RMB170.4 million in the same period in 2020, mainly due to a decrease in share-based compensation expenses.

Research and development expenses were RMB232.3 million (US$36.0 million), flat from RMB230.8 million in the same period in 2020, primarily due to the increase in salaries and social insurance fees, and partially offset by the decrease of share-based compensation expenses.

Operating loss was RMB320.5 million (US$49.6 million), significantly narrowed down by 25.5% from RMB430.3 million in the same quarter of 2020.

Net loss was RMB220.6 million (US$34.2 million), improved by 47.5% from RMB420.1 million in the same quarter of 2020.

Non-GAAP net loss was RMB235.6 million (US$36.5 million), compared with RMB237.7 million in the same quarter of 2020.

Non-GAAP EBITDA was RMB-55.3 million (US$-8.6 million), compared with RMB-35.9 million in the same quarter of 2020. The decrease of Non-GAAP EBITDA was due to the improvement of our efficacy and partially offset by changes of gross profits, the increase of personnel expenses in terms of social insurance fees. Non-GAAP EBITDA margin was -2.5%, slightly improved from -2.7% in the last quarter, while in the same quarter of 2020 it was -2.3%.

Basic and diluted net loss per share was RMB0.07 (US$0.01), compared with RMB0.19 in the same quarter of 2020.

Cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments were RMB5,474.9 million (US$848.0 million) as of June 30, 2021, compared to RMB5,455.8 million as of March 31, 2021.

Outstanding ordinary shares were 3,355,861,263 as of June 30, 2021, equivalent to about 223,724,084 ADSs.

Business Outlook

For the third quarter of 2021, the Company expects total revenues to be between RMB2.58 billion and RMB2.7 billion, representing an accelerated year-over-year growth of 49% to 56%. This forecast reflects the Company’s current and preliminary views on the market and operational conditions, which are subject to change.

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 profit, Non-GAAP gross margin, Non-GAAP EBITDA, Non-GAAP EBITDA margin, Non-GAAP net loss and Non-GAAP net loss 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 profit as gross profit excluding share-based compensation allocated in the cost of revenues, and we define Non-GAAP gross margin as Non-GAAP gross profit as a percentage of revenues. We define Non-GAAP net loss as net loss excluding share-based compensation, foreign exchange (gain) loss, other gain and other (income) expense, net, and we define Non-GAAP net loss margin as adjusted net loss as a percentage of revenues. 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.
