“We saw meaningful improvements in operating conditions in the second quarter as both the industry and the overall economy continued to rebound from the impact of COVID-19 earlier this year. Driven by a robust ‘618’ sales season, combined with successful new product launches such as our Viomi-branded air conditioning systems, we are pleased to report that our second quarter growth was significantly stronger than expected,” said Mr. Xiaoping Chen, Founder, Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer of Viomi.
“The backbone of our growth over the years has been our continued product innovation and new product launches under our IoT @ Home strategic framework. With the recent successful introductions of our Viomi-branded air conditioning systems and our 21Face Interactive Smart Screen (TV), we now have a comprehensive presence across the entire range of major scenarios in the home environment. We also achieved positive advancements in developing additional content partnerships for our flagship 21Face large-screen refrigerators, having entered into a strategic collaboration agreement with Kugou Music, a leading interactive digital music-related services provider in China and subsidiary of Tencent Music Entertainment Group. This partnership is in line with our 5G IoT strategy, and will enrich our content offerings as well as enhance the cross-scenario and cross-screen interactivity of Viomi’s large-screen products,” added Mr. Chen. “To provide innovative and exciting content for the imminent 5G + IoT era, we continue to seek strategic partnerships with entertainment and social media platforms. We believe these collaborations will help further increase our user stickiness, create additional potential monetization channels and further differentiate us from our peers.

Looking ahead to the second half, the broader rebound in market demand, together with the ramp-up of many of our newly launched products, including air conditioning systems as well as the next-generation Viomi-branded water purifiers and various small appliances products, will provide us with the foundation to further strengthen our industry positioning, enhance our brand recognition and deliver attractive returns. Having successfully navigated these unprecedented and challenging market conditions in the first half of 2020, we will continue to execute our long-term strategies with a focus on high-quality growth, stable cash flows and prudent risk control, while positioning our Company to realize greater operational efficiencies and economies of scale,” concluded Mr. Chen.

Use of Non-GAAP Measures
The Company uses non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income attributable to the Company, non-GAAP net income attributable to ordinary shareholders, non-GAAP basic and diluted net income per ordinary shares and non-GAAP basic and diluted net income per ADS, which are non-GAAP financial measures, in evaluating its operating results and for financial and operational decision-making purposes. Non-GAAP operating income is income from operations excluding share-based compensation expenses. Non-GAAP net income is net income excluding share-based compensation expenses. Non-GAAP net income attributable to the Company is net income attributable to the Company excluding share-based compensation expenses. Non-GAAP net income attributable to ordinary shareholders is net income attributable to ordinary shareholders excluding share-based compensation expenses. The non-GAAP adjustments do not have any tax impact as share-based compensation expenses are non-deductible for income tax purpose.
The Company believes that non-GAAP financial measures help identify underlying trends in its business by excluding the impact of share-based compensation expenses, which are non-cash charges, and these measures provide useful information about the Company’s operating results, enhance the overall understanding of the Company’s past performance and future prospects and allow for greater visibility with respect to key metrics used by the Company’s management in its financial and operational decision-making.
Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or construed as alternative to income from operations, net income, or any other measure of performance or as an indicator of the Company’s operating performance. Investors are encouraged to review the historical non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures. Non-GAAP financial measures 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. We encourage investors and others to review its financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.
