Net revenues generated from Dada Now increased by 54.3% from RMB833.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2019 to RMB1,286.5 million, mainly driven by the increases in order volume of services to logistics companies and intra-city delivery service to chain merchants.

 

Net revenues generated from JDDJ increased by 106.9% from RMB352.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2019 to RMB729.3 million, mainly due to the increase in GMV from the same quarter last year, which was driven by increases in average order size and the number of active consumers. The increase in online marketing services revenue as a result of the increasing promotional activities launched by brand owners also constituted an increment of the net revenues generated from JDDJ.

 

Total costs and expenses were RMB2,584.2 million, compared with RMB1,750.9 million in the same quarter of 2019.

 

lOperations and support costs were RMB1,637.3 million, compared with RMB1,083.3 million in the same quarter of 2019. The rise was primarily due to an increase in rider cost as a result of increasing order volume for our services to logistics companies and intra-city delivery services provided to various chain merchants on the Dada Now platform and retailers on the JDDJ platform.

 

lSelling and marketing expenses were RMB702.9 million, compared with RMB485.2 million in the same quarter of 2019. The increase was primarily due to (i) growing incentives to JDDJ consumers in line with GMV growth, (ii) an increase in advertising and marketing expenses, which was primarily attributable to the increase in referral fees paid to staff at retailer stores and third-party promotion service providers for their efforts to attract new consumers to the JDDJ platform, and (iii) an increase in personnel cost in connection with the Company’s growing business and increased share-based compensation expenses.

 

lGeneral and administrative expenses were RMB113.3 million, compared with RMB70.7 million in the same quarter of 2019. The increase was primarily due to (i) increased share-based compensation expenses, and (ii) increases in professional service fees that the Company incurred as a listed company.

 

lResearch and development expenses were RMB110.2 million, compared with RMB95.3 million in the same quarter of 2019. The increase was mainly attributable to the increase in research and development personnel cost as the Company continues to strengthen its technological capabilities. The increased share-based compensation expenses also contributed to the increase in personnel cost.

 

Loss from operations was RMB549.6 million, compared with RMB558.7 million in the same quarter of 2019. Operating margin was -27.3%, compared with -47.1% in the same quarter of 2019.

Non-GAAP basic and diluted net loss per share4 for the fourth quarter of 2020 was RMB0.46, compared with RMB1.91 in the same quarter of 2019.

 

 

1 Non-GAAP loss from operations represents loss from operations excluding the impact of share-based compensation expenses and amortization of intangible assets resulting from business acquisition.

2 Non-GAAP net loss represents net loss excluding the impact of share-based compensation expenses, amortization of intangible assets resulting from business acquisitions and tax benefit from amortization of such intangible assets.

lIn light of the resurgence of COVID-19 cases in select cities, the Company was designated as the first batch of companies to supply and distribute daily necessities in select cities of Hebei province. As part of our response, we worked together with retailers and brand partners to maintain continuous supply of necessities. To ensure timely and safe deliveries, we arranged for our Dada Now riders to undergo a second round of nucleic acid testing and daily body temperature checks. This allowed us to develop contactless delivery services.
lIn terms of rider care, we finished a second round of education-related support for children of Dada Now riders. This included grants to children with academic excellence, and helped to relieve the pressures on our hardworking riders, who face financial difficulties. To cope with the coldest months, we also launched a “Warm Winter” program in major cities by partnering with 400 offline supermarket stores nationwide to provide warm rest areas exclusively for our Dada Now riders
lWe continued to participate in the poverty alleviation drive between the eastern and western regions in China during the quarter. We not only expanded our coverage of poverty-stricken groups, but also empowered them by leveraging our e-commerce and delivery platform to help them sell and distribute agricultural products through live streaming and through dedicated sections on our JDDJ platform.
lOn environmental protection, during the quarter, we partnered with our supermarket partners to use biodegradable plastic bags for packaging in most first- and second-tier cities, to reduce pollution.

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 operating margin, non-GAAP net income/(loss), non-GAAP net margin, non-GAAP net income/(loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders of Dada Group and non-GAAP net income/(loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders of Dada Group per share as supplemental measures to review and assess its financial and 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. Non-GAAP income/(loss) from operations is income/(loss) from operations excluding the impact of share-based compensation expenses and amortization of intangible assets resulting from business acquisition. Non-GAAP operating margin is non-GAAP income/(loss) from operations as a percentage of total net revenues. Non-GAAP net income/(loss) is net income/(loss) excluding the impact of share-based compensation expenses, amortization of intangible assets resulting from business acquisition and tax benefit from amortization of such intangible assets. Non-GAAP net margin is non-GAAP net income/(loss) as a percentage of total net revenues. Non-GAAP net income/(loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders of Dada Group is net income/(loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders of Dada Group excluding the impact of share-based compensation expenses, amortization of intangible assets resulting from business acquisition and tax benefit from amortization of such intangible assets. Non-GAAP net income/(loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders of Dada Group per share is non-GAAP net income/(loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders of Dada Group 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 business acquisition and tax benefit from amortization of such intangible assets. The Company also believes that the use of the non-GAAP measures facilitates investors’ assessment of the Company’s financial and operating performance.

 

The non-GAAP financial measures are not defined under 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 income/(loss) from operations, non-GAAP net income/(loss), non-GAAP net income/(loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders of Dada Group, and non-GAAP net income/(loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders of Dada Group per share 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 business acquisition 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 income/(loss) from operations, non-GAAP net income/(loss), non-GAAP net income/(loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders of Dada Group, and non-GAAP net income/(loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders of Dada Group per share. Further, the non-GAAP measures may differ from the non-GAAP 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, the non-GAAP income/(loss) from operations, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income/(loss), non-GAAP net margin, non-GAAP net income/(loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders of Dada Group and non-GAAP net income/(loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders of Dada Group per share for the period should not be considered in isolation from or as an alternative to income/(loss) from operations, operating margin, net income/(loss), net margin, net income/(loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders of Dada Group and net income/(loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders of Dada Group per share, or other 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.”
