Third Quarter 2023 Financial Results:

Revenues

Total revenues reached RMB170.9 million (US$23.4 million) in the third quarter of 2023, representing an increase of 536% year over year. The rapid increase was mainly attributable to strong execution and delivery in the Company's energy solutions projects throughout the third quarter of 2023.

Charging services revenues contributed RMB31.5 million (US$4.3 million) in the third quarter of 2023, with a growth rate of 23% year over year. The increase was primarily attributable to an overall increase in charging volume completed through NaaS' EV Charging network. The Company offered platform-based incentives to end-users to boost the use of its network. Costs associated with end-user incentives and recorded as reductions to total revenues totaled RMB82.9 million (US$11.4 million) and RMB61.3 million for the third quarter of 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Energy solutions revenues increased from RMB0.3 million year over year to RMB138.8 million (US$19.0 million) in the third quarter of 2023. The increase was primarily driven by revenues from the on-going delivery of energy solution projects to provide renewable energy generation, energy management and storage solutions.

New initiatives revenues were RMB0.6 million (US$0.1 million) in the third quarter of 2023, as the Company continued to launch new initiatives to expand its market offerings.

Cost of revenues, gross profit and margin

Total cost of revenues increased 392% year over year to RMB124.1 million (US$17.0 million) as the Company made significant progress in delivering various energy solution projects in mainland China and international markets.

Total gross profit increased 28 times year over year from RMB1.6 million to RMB46.8 million (US$6.4 million), benefiting from solid revenue growth and significant year over year improvement in gross margin to 27.4% from 6.1%. Gross margin improved as the Company started to reap benefits from its know-how and capabilities in delivering and executing energy solution projects of different scales.

Operating expenses

Total operating expenses were RMB285.3 million (US$39.1 million) in the third quarter of 2023. Operating expenses as a percentage of revenues improved year over year from 385% to 167%, demonstrating the Company's increased operating leverage.

Selling and marketing expenses increased from RMB67.7 million to RMB160.2 million (US$22.0 million) in the third quarter of 2023. The increase in selling and marketing expenses was mainly attributable to higher incentives to end-users and sales and marketing efforts relating to the energy solutions business. Costs associated with excess incentives to end-users included in selling and marketing expenses were RMB78.0 million (US$10.7 million) in the third quarter of 2023, compared with RMB38.6 million in the same period of 2022.

Administrative expenses increased from RMB25.5 million to RMB107.7 million (US$14.8 million) in the third quarter of 2023. The increase in administrative expenses was largely due to an increase in headcount and professional service fees to support the Company's domestic and international business expansion.

Research and development expenses increased from RMB10.3 million to RMB17.4 million (US$2.4 million) in the third quarter of 2023. The increase in research and development expenses was primarily due to the continued expansion of the Company's research and development team to enhance the Company's charging services and energy solutions business.

Finance costs

Finance costs were RMB8.5 million (US$1.2 million) for the third quarter of 2023, compared with finance costs of RMB9.8 million for the same period of 2022.

Income tax expenses

NaaS' income tax expenses were RMB2.2 million (US$0.3 million) for the third quarter of 2023, compared with income tax expenses of RMB3.8 million for the same period of 2022.

Net loss and non-IFRS net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders; Net margin and non-IFRS net margin

Net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders was RMB366.9 million (US$50.3 million) for the third quarter of 2023, compared with a net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of RMB109.1 million for the same period of 2022. Non-IFRS net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders was RMB175.7 million (US$24.1 million) for the third quarter of 2023, compared with non-IFRS net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of RMB96.5 million for the same period of 2022. Net margin improved from negative 406% to negative 214%, whereas non-IFRS net margin improved from negative 359% to negative 103%. Please refer to the section titled "Unaudited reconciliations of IFRS and non-IFRS results" for details.

Outlook

Based on preliminary assessment of the current market conditions, the Company reaffirms its previous guidance and expects its full-year 2023 revenues to be between RMB500 million (US$69 million) and RMB600 million (US$82 million), representing a year over year increase of 5 to 6 times. The Company expects its full-year 2024 revenues to be between RMB2 billion (US$274 million) and RMB3 billion (US$411 million). The foregoing is the current and preliminary view of NaaS' management and is subject to changes and uncertainties.

Exchange Rate

This press release contains translations of certain RMB amounts into 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 RMB7.2960 to US$1.00, the noon buying rate in effect on September 29, 2023, in the H.10 statistical release of the Federal Reserve Board. The Company makes no representation that the RMB or USD amounts referred could be converted into USD or RMB, as the case may be, at any particular rate or at all. For analytical presentation, all percentages are calculated using the numbers presented in the financial statements contained in this earnings release.

Change in presentation of income statement

Effective as of the third quarter of 2023, the Company implemented certain changes to align its income statement presentation more closely with the manner in which the Company's management currently receives and uses financial information to evaluate business performance following the Company's expansion of business lines, extension of its services to a broader range of energy asset owners, including EV charging stations, PV and energy asset owners, and recent acquisitions. The Company now reports its revenues under three primary categories:

Charging services revenue, which includes income from the provision of mobility connectivity solutions to EV charging stations and the provision of charging services at charging stations that NaaS operates under its full station operation model. NaaS' mobility connectivity solutions include mobility services delivered in conjunction with Kuaidian, its partnered platform that is operated by a third-party service provider, and SaaS products that optimize the marketing, operations and energy efficiency of charging stations connected to NaaS' network.

Energy solutions revenue, which includes income from the provision of integrated charging facilities and energy storage solutions that cover the planning, deployment, production and optimization of EV charging, renewable energy and energy storage systems for energy asset owners.

New initiatives revenue, which includes income from electricity procurement services and other services that aim to enhance the efficiency and profitability of energy assets including charging stations, PV and energy storage assets.

The Company retrospectively recast prior periods' income statement information to conform to the current period presentation. The recasting involved the recategorization of revenues from mobility connectivity services and from full station operation model to charging services revenue; the inclusion of revenues from EPC services, hardware procurement, station upgrade and maintenance services to energy solutions revenue; and the reclassification of income from electricity procurement, non-charging services such as food and beverage and online advertising, virtual power plant and charging robots to new initiatives revenue. These changes have no material impact on NaaS' previously reported consolidated net revenues, net income or net income per share.

Non-IFRS Financial Measure

The Company uses non-IFRS net profit/loss and non-IFRS net margin for the period, which are non-IFRS financial measures, in evaluating its operating results and for financial and operational decision-making purposes. NaaS believes that non-IFRS net profit/loss and non-IFRS net margin help identify underlying trends in the Company's business that could otherwise be distorted by the effect of certain expenses that the Company includes in its results for the period. NaaS believes that non-IFRS net profit/loss and non-IFRS net margin for the period provide useful information about its results of operations, enhances the overall understanding of its past performance and future prospects and allow for greater visibility with respect to key metrics used by its management in its financial and operational decision-making.

Non-IFRS net profit/loss and non-IFRS net margin for the period should not be considered in isolation or construed as an alternative to operating profit or net profit for the period or any other measure of performance or as an indicator of its operating performance. Investors are encouraged to review non-IFRS net profit/loss and IFRS net margin for the period and the reconciliation to their most directly comparable IFRS measures. Non-IFRS net profit/loss and non-IFRS net margin for the period 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. NaaS encourages investors and others to review its financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.

Non-IFRS net profit/loss for the period represents profit/loss for the period excluding share-based compensation expenses, equity-settled listing costs, fair value changes of convertible and redeemable preferred shares, and fair value changes of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. Non-IFRS margin for the period is calculated by dividing non-IFRS net loss for the period by total revenue for the period.

Merger Transactions

On June 10, 2022, RISE Education Cayman Ltd, the Company's predecessor, completed the merger and other related transactions (the "Merger Transactions") with Dada Auto Inc. ("Dada"), as a result of which Dada became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and the Company assumed and began conducting the principal business of Dada. The name of the Company was changed from "RISE Education Cayman Ltd" to "NaaS Technology Inc." and its ticker was changed from "REDU" to "NAAS."
