"In the third quarter of 2022, we achieved another quarter of steady growth in both net revenues and operating profits, thanks to our ability to increase enrollment in children's IT-focused STEAM education while streamlining our centers and headcount. Ultimately, this performance was mainly driven by the effectiveness of our relatively conservative growth strategy, whereby we focused on improving the quality of our courses and services and continued to optimize our operations to maintain financial health," remarked Ms. Ying Sun, the Chief Executive Officer of Tarena.

Ms. Sun continued, "Going forward, we anticipate more restrictions on the mobility of our students from the resurging COVID-19 and related prevention and control measures, which will affect our center operations, new enrollment and revenue to some degree in the fourth quarter. To ensure undisrupted services to our students, we will continue to optimize the quality of our OMO-based course delivery and service system. On the student acquisition front, we will continue to drive near-term enrollment in a cost-effective manner through referrals and renewal-based enrollment. Additionally, we will continue to improve operational efficiency to maintain healthy margins and operating cash flows."

"Furthermore, our Board of Directors approved another share repurchase program of up to US$3 million, further demonstrating our confidence in the fundamental health and long-term development of the company as well as our commitment to enhancing shareholder value," concluded Ms. Ying Sun.

Financial Results for the Third Quarter of 2022

Net Revenues

Total net revenues increased by 4.6% to RMB643.3 million (US$90.4 million) in the third quarter of 2022, from RMB615.2 million in the same period of 2021. The increase was mainly driven by higher student enrollment in IT-focused supplementary STEAM education, and was partially offset by a slight decrease in IT professional education revenues.

Cost of Revenues

The cost of revenues decreased by 4.3% to RMB289.1 million (US$40.6 million) in the third quarter of 2022, from RMB302.0 million in the same period of 2021. The decrease was mainly due to decreased rental and depreciation expenses resulting from the closing of some of our teaching centers and a decrease in certificate fees.

Gross Profit and Gross Margin

Gross profit increased by 13.1% to RMB354.2 million (US$49.8 million) in the third quarter of 2022, from RMB313.2 million in the same period of 2021. Gross margin expanded to 55.1% in the third quarter of 2022, compared to 50.9% in the same period of 2021 as we continued to improve operational efficiency.

Selling and marketing expenses decreased by 24.7% to RMB168.4 million (US$23.7 million) in the third quarter of 2022, from RMB223.7 million in the same period of 2021. The decrease was mainly due to the drop in the number of sales staff and a decrease in advertising spending as the Company continued to optimize marketing spending in the third quarter of 2022.

General and administrative expenses decreased by 0.9% to RMB150.1 million (US$21.1 million) in the third quarter of 2022, from RMB151.5 million in the same period of 2021.

Research and development expenses decreased by 44.6% to RMB14.7 million (US$2.1 million) in the third quarter of 2022, from RMB26.6 million in the same period of 2021. The decrease was mainly due to the decrease in personnel-related expenses in the third quarter of 2022.

Net Income/(Loss)

As a result of the foregoing factors, net income was RMB27.9 million (US$3.9 million) in the third quarter of 2022, compared to a net loss of RMB94.7 million in the same period of 2021. Non-GAAP net income, which excluded share-based compensation expenses, was RMB37.2 million (US$5.2 million) in the third quarter of 2022, compared to a non-GAAP net loss of RMB90.5 million in the same period of 2021.

Cash Flow

The outflow was primarily due to operational spending exceeding the amount of cash received from new enrollments in the quarter. Net cash outflow from financing activities in the third quarter of 2022 was RMB23.5 million (US$3.3 million) as we repaid RMB15.5 million (US$2.2 million) of the short-term bank loan. Capital expenditures in the third quarter of 2022 were RMB13.6 million (US$1.9 million).

Financial Results for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022

Net Revenues

Total net revenues increased by 10.7% to RMB1,915.6 million (US$269.3 million) in the first nine months of 2022, from RMB1,731.2 million in the same period of 2021. The increase was primarily driven by higher student enrollment in our IT-focused supplementary STEAM education and an increase in certification revenues.

Cost of Revenues

The cost of revenues decreased by 5.5% to RMB826.0 million (US$116.1 million) in the first nine months of 2022, from RMB873.7 million in the same period of 2021. The decrease was primarily due to the decrease in rental costs, depreciation costs and certificate fees.

Gross Profit and Gross Margin

Gross profit increased by 27.1% to RMB1,089.7 million (US$153.2 million) in the first nine months of 2022, from RMB857.5 million in the same period of 2021. Gross margin, which is equal to gross profit divided by net revenues, was 56.9% in the first nine months of 2022, compared with 49.5% in the same period of 2021. The increase in gross profit was primarily attributable to the increase in net revenues and the decrease in the cost of revenues in both our IT-focused supplementary STEAM education and IT professional education businesses.

Operating Expenses

Total operating expenses decreased by 14.9% to RMB992.0 million (US$139.5 million) in the first nine months of 2022, from RMB1,166.2 million in the same period of 2021. Total non-GAAP operating expenses, which excluded share-based compensation expenses, decreased by 14.9% to RMB980.4 million (US$137.8 million) in the first nine months of 2022, from RMB1,151.6 million in the same period of 2021.

Selling and marketing expenses decreased by 24.2% to RMB497.6 million (US$70.0 million) in the first nine months of 2022, from RMB656.3 million in the same period of 2021. The decrease was mainly due to a drop in the number of sales staff and a decrease in advertising spending as the Company continued to control marketing spending in the first nine months of 2022.

General and administrative expenses increased by 3.0% to RMB450.5 million (US$63.3 million) in the first nine months of 2022, from RMB437.5 million in the same period of 2021. The increase was mainly due to a one-time provision for the residual amount of the anticipated settlement of a class action lawsuit net of the estimated insurance coverage in the first nine months of 2022. In addition, the increase in bonus payments resulted in an increase in payroll costs in the first nine months of 2022. Such an increase was partially offset by an impairment loss on an office property held for sale in the first nine months of 2021, which the Company did not incur in the first nine months of 2022.

Research and development expenses decreased by 39.3% to RMB43.9 million (US$6.2 million) in the first nine months of 2022, from RMB72.4 million in the same period of 2021. The decrease was mainly due to a decrease in personnel-related costs in the first nine months of 2022.

Non-GAAP net income, which excluded share-based compensation expenses, was RMB114.7 million (US$16.1 million) in the first nine months of 2022, compared to non-GAAP net loss of RMB278.0 million in the same period of 2021.

Capital expenditures in the first nine months of 2022 were RMB33.1 million (US$4.7 million).

Business Outlook

Based on the Company's current estimates, total net revenues for the fourth quarter of 2022 are expected to be in the range of RMB560 million to RMB590 million, which represents a decrease of 10.0% to 15.0% compared to net revenues in the fourth quarter of 2021, after taking into consideration the likely continued impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

This guidance is based on current market conditions and reflects the Company's current and preliminary estimates of market and operating conditions, which are subject to change, particularly as to the potential impact of COVID-19 in China.

Share Repurchase Program

On November 28, 2022, the Company's board of directors authorized a new share repurchase program over the next twelve months.

The Company's proposed repurchases may be effected from time to time through open market transactions at prevailing market prices, in privately negotiated transactions, in block trades and/or through other legally permissible means, depending on the market conditions and in accordance with applicable rules and regulations. The timing and dollar amount of the repurchase transactions will be subject to the Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 10b-18 and/or Rule 10b5-1 requirements. The Company expects to fund the repurchases under the extended share repurchase program with its existing cash balance.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement Tarena's consolidated financial results presented in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"), Tarena's management uses non-GAAP measures of cost of revenues, operating expenses, operating income, net income, and basic and diluted net income per ADS, which are adjusted from results based on GAAP to exclude the share-based compensation expenses. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results. In addition, calculation of the non-GAAP financial measures may be different from the calculation used by other companies, and therefore comparability may be limited.

Tarena's management believes that excluding the share-based compensation expenses provides meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance and liquidity by excluding certain items identified as non-recurring and infrequent in nature, and non-cash charges. The amount of share-based compensation expenses is not built into the Company's annual budgets and quarterly forecasts, which generally will be the basis for information Tarena provides to analysts and investors as guidance for future operating performance.

The non-GAAP financial measures are provided to enhance investors' overall understanding of Tarena's current financial performance and prospects for the future. A limitation of using non-GAAP cost of revenues, operating expenses, operating income (loss) and net income (loss), excluding the share-based compensation expenses is that the share-based compensation charge has been and will continue to be a recurring expense in the Company's business for the foreseeable future. In order to mitigate the limitation, the Company has provided specific information regarding the GAAP amounts excluded from each non-GAAP measure. The accompanying tables include details on the reconciliation between GAAP financial measures that are most directly comparable to the non-GAAP financial measures the Company has presented.

Notes:

(a)  There was no tax impact of share-based compensation expenses for the third quarter of 2022 and 2021, respectively.

(b)  The Non-GAAP net income/(loss) per ADS is computed using Non-GAAP net income/(loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders and the same number of ordinary shares are used in GAAP basic and diluted net income/(loss) per ADS calculation.

(c)  Each ADS represents five Class A ordinary shares. The weighted average number of ADS and earnings per ADS have been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the ADS ratio change from one ADS representing one Class A ordinary share to one ADS representing five Class A ordinary shares, which became effective on December 23, 2021.
