Note: (1) Includes net revenues from (i) commission fee, and online advertising and marketing services of RMB1,090,437 and RMB861,910 for the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2023, respectively; and (ii) fulfillment services and others of RMB707,604 and RMB685,094 for the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2023, respectively.

  • Net revenues generated from JDDJ decreased by 13.9% from RMB1,798.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2022 to RMB1,548.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2023, mainly due to the decrease in online advertising and marketing services revenues.

  • Net revenues generated from Dada Now increased by 36.3% from RMB883.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2022 to RMB1,203.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2023, mainly driven by the increase in order volume of intra-city delivery services provided to various chain merchants.

Total costs and expenses were RMB4,077.9 million, compared with RMB3,114.9 million in the same quarter of 2022.

  • Operations and support costs were RMB1,918.9 million, compared with RMB1,574.6 million in the same quarter of 2022. The increase was primarily due to an increase in rider cost as a result of increasing order volume of intra-city delivery services provided to various chain merchants.

  • Selling and marketing expenses were RMB1,002.3 million, compared with RMB1,293.5 million in the same quarter of 2022. The decrease was primarily due to (i) a decrease in promotional activities conducted on JDDJ platform, and (ii) a decrease in advertising and marketing expenses.

  • General and administrative expenses were RMB88.8 million, compared with RMB101.0 million in the same quarter of 2022. The decrease was primarily due to (i) a decrease in amortization of intangible assets arising from the acquisition of JDDJ in 2016, and (ii) a decrease in share-based compensation expenses.

  • Research and development expenses were RMB91.5 million, compared with RMB125.7 million in the same quarter of 2022. The decrease was mainly attributable to the decrease in research and development personnel cost.

  • Impairment loss of goodwill was RMB957.6 million.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company also uses certain non-GAAP financial measures in evaluating its business. For example, the Company uses non-GAAP income/(loss) from operations, non-GAAP net income/(loss), non-GAAP net margin, and non-GAAP net income/(loss) per share as supplemental measures to review and assess its financial and operating performance. Non-GAAP income/(loss) from operations is income/(loss) from operations excluding the impact of share-based compensation expenses, amortization of intangible assets resulting from acquisitions and impairment loss of goodwill. Non-GAAP net income/(loss) is net income/(loss) excluding the impact of share-based compensation expenses, amortization of intangible assets resulting from acquisitions, tax benefit from amortization of such intangible assets, and impairment loss of goodwill. Non-GAAP net margin is non-GAAP net income/(loss) as a percentage of total net revenues. Non-GAAP net income/(loss) per share is non-GAAP net income/(loss) divided by weighted average number of shares used in calculating net income/(loss) per share.

The Company presents the non-GAAP financial measures because they are used by the Company’s management to evaluate the Company’s financial and operating performance and formulate business plans. Non-GAAP income/(loss) from operations and non-GAAP net income/(loss) enable the Company’s management to assess the Company’s financial and operating results without considering the impact of share-based compensation expenses, amortization of intangible assets resulting from acquisitions, tax benefit from amortization of such intangible assets, and impairment loss of goodwill. The Company also believes that the use of the non-GAAP financial measures facilitates investors’ assessment of the Company’s financial and operating performance.

The non-GAAP financial measures are not defined under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and are not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools. One of the key limitations of using non-GAAP financial measures is that they do not reflect all items of income and expense that affect the Company’s operations. Share-based compensation expenses, amortization of intangible assets resulting from acquisitions, and tax benefit from amortization of such intangible assets have been and may continue to be incurred in the Company’s business and is not reflected in the presentation of non-GAAP financial measures. Impairment loss of goodwill is not considered by the management when evaluating the core operating results and may not be indicative of the Company's business outlook. Further, the non-GAAP financial measures may differ from the non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies, including peer companies, potentially limiting the comparability of their financial results to the Company’s. In light of the foregoing limitations, non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from or as an alternative to financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

The Company compensates for these limitations by reconciling the non-GAAP financial measures to the nearest U.S. GAAP performance measures, which should be considered when evaluating the Company’s performance. For reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, please see the section of the accompanying tables titled, “Reconciliations of GAAP and Non-GAAP Results.”

Appendix II

Corrections to Certain Line Items of Previously Released Unaudited Quarterly Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the First, Second and Third Quarters of Fiscal Year 2023

 

As previously disclosed by the Company in its Form 6-K filed on January 8, 2024, the audit committee of its Board, with the assistance of independent professional advisers, initiated an independent review of certain suspicious practices that were identified during a routine internal audit by the Company and that might cast doubt on certain revenues from the Company’s online advertising and marketing services in 2023 (the “Independent Review”). Based on the findings of the Independent Review, the Company’s net revenues were overstated by approximately RMB40 million in the first quarter of 2023, RMB214 million in the second quarter of 2023, and RMB245 million in the third quarter of 2023, respectively. The Company’s operations and support costs were overstated by approximately RMB42 million in the first quarter of 2023, RMB214 million in the second quarter of 2023, and RMB250 million in the third quarter of 2023, respectively. Transactions at issue prior to fiscal year 2023 had immaterial impact on the Company’s financial statements, therefore no corrections were made to the previously issued unaudited/audited consolidated financial statements prior to fiscal year 2023.

The Company is setting forth corrections to certain line items for the transactions at issue, which include net revenues, operations and support costs, accounts receivable, net, and prepayments and other current assets. The tables below illustrate the impact of the aforementioned corrections on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, and unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the applicable quarterly periods of fiscal year 2023.
