Non-GAAPFinancial Measures

 

The unaudited condensed consolidatedfinancial information is prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. In evaluating our business,we have considered and used certain non-GAAP financial measures, including Non-GAAP gross profit, Non-GAAP gross margin, Non-GAAP operatingloss, Non-GAAP operating loss margin, Non-GAAP EBITDA, Non-GAAP EBITDA margin, Non-GAAP net loss and Non-GAAP net loss margin, as supplementalmeasures to review and assess our operating performance. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to beconsidered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We presentthese non-GAAP financial measures because they are used by our management to evaluate our operating performance and formulate businessplans. We also believe that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures facilitates investors’ assessment of our operating performance.

 

These non-GAAP financial measuresare not defined under U.S. GAAP and are not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures have limitationsas analytical tools. One of the key limitations of using these non-GAAP financial measures is that they do not reflect all items of incomeand expense that affect our operations. Further, these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from those used by other companies, includingpeer companies, and therefore their comparability may be limited.

 

We compensate for these limitationsby reconciling these non-GAAP financial measures to the nearest U.S. GAAP performance measure, all of which should be considered whenevaluating our performance. We encourage you to review our financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.

The Company,its subsidiaries, its variable interest entities (“VIEs”), and subsidiaries of its variable interest entities are hereinaftercollectively referred to as the “Group”.

The Company completedthe follow-on offering of American Depositary shares and ordinary shares in April 2025, and the concurrent private placement toKingsoft Corporation Limited in June 2025.

 

2.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

(a)Basis of presentation

 

The accompanying unauditedcondensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles(“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information. These financial statements also comply with the applicable disclosure requirementsof the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP forcomplete financial statements. Certain information and note disclosure normally included in the annual financial statements preparedin accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted.

 

The unaudited condensedconsolidated financial statements and related notes are presented in RMB and all values are rounded to the nearest thousand (RMB’000)except when otherwise indicated.

 

(b)Going concern consideration

 

The Group’s unauditedcondensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP on a going concern basis. The going concernbasis assumes that assets are realized and liabilities are extinguished in the ordinary course of business at amounts disclosed in theconsolidated financial statements.

 

As of June 30, 2025,the Group had an accumulated deficit and net current liabilities of RMB15,063,348 (US$2,102,762) and RMB430,515 (US$60,097), respectively.The Group has primarily funded the operations through revenue generated from contracts with customers, equity financing, and proceedsfrom financing facilities such as borrowings from third parties and related parties.

 

In view of such circumstance,management has given careful consideration to the future liquidity and performance of the Group and its available sources of financingin assessing whether the Group will have sufficient financial resources to continue as a going concern. As of June 30, 2025, theGroup had cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of RMB5,517,128 (US$770,162). In addition, the Group had existing credit facilitiesavailable from banks and other financial institutions to finance the future operations and capital expenditures of the Group.

 

Based on the above, managementbelieves that it is appropriate to prepare the Group’s consolidated financial statements using the going concern basis. Therefore,the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the amounts and classifications of assetsand liabilities that might be necessary should the Group be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

 19 

 

 

(c)Principles of consolidation

 

The condensed consolidatedfinancial statements of the Group include the financial statements of the Company, its subsidiaries, the VIEs, and subsidiaries of theVIEs for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated uponconsolidation.

 

(d)Use of estimates

 

The preparation of theunaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptionsthat affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the balance sheet dateand the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates and assumptions reflected in theGroup’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, allowance for credit losses foraccounts receivable, contract assets and amounts due from related parties, measurement of operating and finance lease right-of-use assetsand lease liabilities, impairment of long-lived assets, impairment of goodwill, useful lives of long-lived assets, realization of deferredtax assets, uncertain tax positions, share-based compensation expense, the fair value of equity investments, standalone selling pricesof performance obligation of revenue contracts, fair value of short-term investments and impairment of contract cost. Management basesthe estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable, the results of which form thebasis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.

 

(e)Convenience translation

 

Amounts in U.S. dollarsare presented for the convenience of the reader and are translated at the noon buying rate of RMB7.1636 per US$1.00 on June 30,2025 in the City of New York for cable transfers of RMB as certified for customs purposes by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. Norepresentation is made that the RMB amounts could have been, or could be, converted into US$ at such rate.

 

(f)Segment reporting

 

The Group adopted AccountingStandard Update (“ASU”) No, 2023-07, Segment Reporting: Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASC2023-07”) on January l, 2024, to retrospectively improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanceddisclosures for significant segment expenses.

 

The Group’s chiefoperating decision maker (“CODM”) has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer who reviews the consolidated resultsof operations when making decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance of the Group as a whole and hence, the Grouphas only one operating segment. The CODM uses consolidated net loss to assess financial performance and allocate resources. The CODMconsiders budget to actual comparisons of consolidated net loss on a regular basis when assessing the operating results and making resourcedecisions to improve profitability. The CODM also uses the budget to actual comparisons of consolidated net loss to make decisions alignedwith the Group’s strategic initiatives and capital allocation priorities. Significant expenses reviewed by the CODM include thosethat are presented in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive loss. The measure of segment assets is reportedon the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as total consolidated assets.

 

A majority of the Group’srevenues were generated from mainland China and a majority of the long-lived assets of the Group are located in mainland China, and therefore,no geographical segments are presented.
