Moreover, our new application-level product, 36Kr Enterprise Service Review platform, continued to see a robust uptick across multiple operating metrics and growing commercialization momentum. As we embark on 2023, we will remain focused on enriching our content ecosystem and product matrix, fueling our efforts to seize the New Economy's tremendous growth potential.

Notably, we also achieved our first full-year profitability since our IPO as we refined our revenue mix, cost structure and operational efficiency, as well as our investment rationale. Heading into 2023, we will continue to amplify our core competitive advantages, expand our product and service offerings and explore greater monetization potential, reaffirming our longstanding commitment to creating sustainable value for our shareholders and society."

Total revenues decreased by 17.0% to RMB96.6 million (US$14.0 million) in the fourth quarter of 2022, from RMB116.3 million in the same period of 2021. 

• Online advertising services revenues were RMB62.2 million (US$9.0 million) in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to RMB76.4 million in the same period of 2021.

• Enterprise value-added services revenues were RMB25.4 million (US$3.7 million) in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to RMB30.3 million in the same period of 2021. The decrease was primarily because some of our offline events were delayed or downscaled due to disruptions from COVID-19.

• General and administrative expenses were RMB21.7 million (US$3.1 million) in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to RMB9.6 million in the same period of 2021. The variance was primarily attributable to the release of allowance for credit losses recognized in the fourth quarter of 2021.
• Research and development expenses were RMB14.5 million (US$2.1 million) in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to RMB12.6 million in the same period of 2021. The increase was primarily attributable to the increase of payroll-related expenses.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In evaluating its business, the Company considers and uses two non-GAAP measures, adjusted net income/(loss) and adjusted EBITDA, as supplemental measures to review and assess its operating performance. The presentation of these two 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 its operating performance and formulate business plans. The Company also believes that the use of these non-GAAP measures facilitates investors' assessment of its 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.

The Company compensates 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 the Company performance. The Company encourages investors to review its financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.

Adjusted net loss represents net loss excluding share-based compensation expenses.

Adjusted EBITDA represents adjusted net income/(loss) before interest income, interest expenses, income tax expense/(credit), depreciation of property and equipment and amortization of intangible assets.  

For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures, please see the table captioned "Reconciliations of GAAP and non-GAAP results" set forth at the end of this press release.
