It is our firm commitment to tackle the challenges and embrace the opportunities head-on with our unique value propositions, including among others, (1) “building a business led by technology” to continuously perfect our scalable core technologies and products; (2) turn-key solution driven sales to offer readily accessible and tangible value of cloud adoption for traditional enterprises in China; and (3) adhering to neutrality and remaining one of the most trusted cloud service provider across industry verticals. We believe, with such value propositions, we will be able to penetrate deep in existing verticals, while tapping into transferrable expertise and Kingsoft and Xiaomi ecosystem, to strategically expand into new industry vertical for sustainable quality growth.”

Mr. Henry He, Chief Financial Officer of Kingsoft Cloud, added, “Our total revenues amounted to RMB1,906.5 million in the second quarter of 2022. Among which, revenues from public cloud services amounted to RMB1,289.1 million in the second quarter of 2022. As we continued to proactively scale down our CDN services, its gross billing decreased by 30% year-over-year, while computing and storage services’ gross billing increased by 5% year-over-year. Revenues from enterprise cloud services amounted to RMB616.6 million, largely stable year-over-year, as we navigated through challenging operating environment which slowed down bidding and project deployment process during the second quarter. Meanwhile, to drive efficiency, we have executed cost control measures and successfully saved RMB252.6 million in total costs on a sequential basis.

Despite the challenges, we remain confident about our long-term prospect and value. We are pleased to announce that we intend to enter into a repurchase agreement with potential size no more than US$30 million during a 90 days window, subject to agreements to be finalized with repurchase agent. This action is pursuant to and part of the US$100 million repurchase program authorized by the board and announced back in March 2022. As usual, the timing, structure and dollar amount of the repurchase will be subject to, among others, the market conditions, terms to be agreed with the relevant repurchase agent, the trading prices of ADSs, and the relevant securities rules and regulations.”

Total Revenues reached RMB1,906.5 million (US$284.6¹ million), representing a decrease of 12.3% from RMB2,173.7 million in the same period of 2021.

• Revenues from enterprise cloud services were RMB616.6 million (US$92.0 million), representing a slight decrease of 0.9% from RMB622.1 million in the same quarter of 2021.

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 (loss), net 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.
