Rhea-AI Summary

Yatsen Holding (NYSE: YSG), a leading China-based beauty group, reported its Q2 2024 financial results. Total net revenues decreased by 7.5% to RMB794.5 million (US$109.3 million).

Insights

Financial Analyst

Yatsen's Q2 2024 results reveal a challenging period for the Chinese beauty market. The company's total net revenues declined by 7.5% year-over-year to RMB794.5 million, primarily due to an 11.4% decrease in Color Cosmetics Brands revenues. However, there are some positive aspects:

• Gross margin improved to 76.7% from 74.7% in the prior year period
• Net loss decreased by 21.2% to RMB85.5 million
• Skincare Brands revenues remained flat, increasing their share of total revenues to 40.9%

The company's focus on premium skincare brands and cost control measures are showing some results, but the overall market conditions remain challenging. The Q3 2024 forecast of a 0% to 10% year-over-year revenue decrease suggests ongoing headwinds.

Market Research Analyst

The Chinese beauty industry's subdued performance in Q2 2024, particularly during the 618 Shopping Festival, indicates a broader consumer spending slowdown. Yatsen's results reflect this trend, with color cosmetics facing more significant challenges than skincare. Key observations:

• Shift towards premium skincare: Galénic, DR.WU and Eve Lom brands showed resilience with 5% YoY growth
• Channel mix optimization: Increased investments in Douyin (TikTok) platform, aligning with changing consumer behavior
• R&D focus: Opening of Global Innovation R&D Center in Shanghai demonstrates commitment to product development

These strategies suggest Yatsen is adapting to evolving market dynamics, but recovery may be gradual given the uncertain consumer demand environment.

Financial Strategist

Yatsen's Q2 2024 results highlight a strategic shift towards higher-margin products and operational efficiency. Key financial insights include:

• Improved gross margin despite revenue decline, indicating better product mix and pricing strategy
• Reduced general and administrative expenses, down to 15% of revenues from 17.4%
• Increased selling and marketing expenses as a percentage of revenue, reflecting investments in brand building and new channels
• Continued share repurchase program, signaling management's confidence in long-term prospects

While the company is making strides in cost management and margin improvement, the increased operating loss margin (17% vs 15.7%) suggests that top-line growth remains important for overall profitability. The focus on premium skincare and digital channels could drive future growth, but execution will be key in a challenging market.

Second Quarter 2024 Financial Results

Net Revenues

Total net revenues for the second quarter of 2024 decreased by 7.5% to RMB794.5 million (US$109.3 million) from RMB858.6 million for the prior year period. The decrease was primarily due to an 11.4% year-over-year decrease in net revenues from Color Cosmetics Brands.^[3]

Gross Profit and Gross Margin

Gross profit for the second quarter of 2024 decreased by 5.0% to RMB609.4 million (US$83.9 million) from RMB641.6 million for the prior year period. Gross margin for the second quarter of 2024 increased to 76.7% from 74.7% for the prior year period. The increase was primarily driven by an increase in sales of higher-gross-margin products.

Operating Expenses 

Total operating expenses for the second quarter of 2024 decreased by 4.1% to RMB744.6 million (US$102.5 million) from RMB776.7 million for the prior year period. As a percentage of total net revenues, total operating expenses for the second quarter of 2024 were 93.7%, as compared with 90.5% for the prior year period.

• Fulfillment Expenses. Fulfillment expenses for the second quarter of 2024 were RMB51.2 million (US$7.0 million), as compared with RMB58.3 million for the prior year period. As a percentage of total net revenues, fulfillment expenses for the second quarter of 2024 decreased to 6.4% from 6.8% for the prior year period. The decrease was primarily due to an increase in the overall average selling price of the Company's products, as well as further improvements in logistics efficiency.
  
  
• Selling and Marketing Expenses. Selling and marketing expenses for the second quarter of 2024 were RMB544.7 million (US$74.9 million), as compared with RMB542.8 million for the prior year period. As a percentage of total net revenues, selling and marketing expenses for the second quarter of 2024 increased to 68.6% from 63.2% for the prior year period. The increase was primarily due to increased investments in the Douyin platform, in line with the growing revenue contribution from Douyin, as well as the Company's investments in new product launches and building brand equity across its portfolio.
  
  
• General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses for the second quarter of 2024 were RMB119.1 million (US$16.4 million), as compared with RMB149.7 million for the prior year period. As a percentage of total net revenues, general and administrative expenses for the second quarter of 2024 decreased to 15.0% from 17.4% for the prior year period. The decrease was primarily attributable to a reduction in share-based compensation, as a result of the reversal of recognized share-based compensation expenses due to the forfeiture of unvested awards granted to certain former employees of the Company.
  
  
• Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses for the second quarter of 2024 were RMB29.7 million (US$4.1 million), as compared with RMB25.9 million for the prior year period. As a percentage of total net revenues, research and development expenses for the second quarter of 2024 increased to 3.7% from 3.0% for the prior year period.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company uses non-GAAP income (loss) from operations, non-GAAP net income (loss), non-GAAP net income (loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders and non-GAAP net income (loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders per diluted ADS, each a non-GAAP financial measure, in reviewing and assessing its 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. The Company presents these non-GAAP financial measures because they are used by the management to evaluate operating performance and formulate business plans. Non-GAAP financial measures help identify underlying trends in its business, provide further information about its results of operations, and enhance the overall understanding of its past performance and future prospects. The Company defines non-GAAP income (loss) from operations as income (loss) from operations excluding (i) share-based compensation expenses, (ii) amortization of intangible assets resulting from assets and business acquisitions and (iii) impairment of goodwill. The Company defines non-GAAP net income (loss) as net income (loss) excluding (i) share-based compensation expenses, (ii) amortization of intangible assets resulting from assets and business acquisitions, (iii) revaluation of investments on the share of equity method investments, (iv) impairment of goodwill and (v) tax effects on non-GAAP adjustments. The Company defines non-GAAP net income (loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders as net income (loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders excluding (i) share-based compensation expenses, (ii) amortization of intangible assets resulting from assets and business acquisitions, (iii) revaluation of investments on the share of equity method investments, (iv) impairment of goodwill, (v) tax effects on non-GAAP adjustments and (vi) accretion to redeemable non-controlling interests. Non-GAAP net income (loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders per diluted ADS is computed using non-GAAP net income (loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders divided by weighted average number of diluted ADS outstanding for computing diluted earnings per ADS.

However, the non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools as the non-GAAP financial measures are not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP and 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 the non-GAAP financial measures to the nearest U.S. GAAP performance measure, all of which should be considered when evaluating performance. The Company encourages investors and others to review its financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure. Reconciliations of Yatsen's non-GAAP financial measure to the most comparable U.S. GAAP measure are included at the end of this press release.
