Third Quarter 2021 Financial Highlights

Net revenues in the third quarter of 2021 were US$28.3 million, as compared to US$71.5 million in the same quarter of last year mainly due to the decrease of product sales.
Product sales revenue in the third quarter of 2021 was US$27.5 million, as compared to US$69.3 million in the same quarter of last year, primarily due to the Company’s quality-drive growth strategy to selectively cooperate with brands having higher profit margin.
Services revenue was US$740,577, as compared to US$2.2 million in the same quarter of last year.
Gross margin rate increased to 22.7% in the third quarter of 2021 from 17.7% in the same quarter of last year. Gross margin rate of product sales increased to 21.9% in the third quarter of 2021 from 17.5% in the same quarter of last year primarily due to fewer lower-margin brands in the Company’s brand portfolio. Gross margin rate of services increased to 53.1% in the third quarter of 2021 from 24.5% in the same quarter of last year due to the increased proportion of high-margin third-party service revenue.

Ms. Zoe Wang, Chairwoman and Chief Executive Officer of ECMOHO Limited, commented, “China’s retail sales growth is far slower than expected in the third quarter of 2021 and the recovery in consumer spending is lagging behind the recovery in income, indicating a decline in consumer confidence. However, consumer’s spending on health products has continued to rise unabated, leading to opportunities for integrated solutions providers in China’s health and wellness market. Leveraging the growing market opportunities, we recently expanded eye healthcare offerings with the launch of eye healthcare products and solutions on Pinduoduo’s platform. We also engaged a premium supplement and nutrition brand with top-notch ingredients, which we believe will not only meet the high expectations of consumers, but will also become an important growth driver going forward. These efforts reaffirm our mission to improve the health and well-being of consumers in China.”

Mr. Xin Li, Chief Financial Officer, commented, “During the third quarter, against the backdrop of our brands portfolio optimization and passed e-commerce peak season, we took deliberate measures to manage our budget, which, although led to a revenue decrease, resulted in better gross margins of product sales. These optimization dynamics will gradually normalize as we plan well for transition of this year’s optimizing strategy to next year’s sustainable growth.”

Third Quarter 2021 Financial Results

Total net revenues were US$28.3 million in the third quarter ended September 30, 2021, as compared to US$71.5 million in the same quarter of last year.

Product sales revenue was US$27.5 million in the third quarter ended September 30, 2021, as compared to US$69.3 million in the same quarter of last year. The decrease in product sales revenue was mainly due to (1) weakened demand for mother and children care category and (2) the impact of the Company’s growth strategy to optimize brands portfolio in order to achieve quality growth.
Services revenue was US$740,577 in the third quarter ended September 30, 2021, as compared to US$2.2 million in the same quarter of last year. The decrease was primarily due to the decline of services for outbound brands.

Cost of revenue was US$21.8 million, representing a decrease of 62.8% from US$58.8 million in the same quarter of last year. The decrease was mainly attributed to the decline in product sales.

Operating expenses were US$10.0 million, representing a decrease of 40.6% from US$16.9 million in the same quarter of last year, as we continued to control costs and optimize our operations. The decrease was mainly attributable to the decrease of fulfillment expenses and sales and marketing expenses. Detailed factors of the changes are as follows:

Fulfillment expenses were US$2.1 million, representing a decrease of 39.0% from US$3.4 million in the same quarter of last year. The decrease was primarily due to decreased warehouse and logistics expenses as result of lower product sales in the third quarter of 2021.
Sales and marketing expenses were US$5.2 million, representing a decrease of 49.2% from US$10.2 million in the same quarter of last year. The decrease was primarily due to (1) decreased business promotion expenses and platform fees due to lower product sales in the third quarter of 2021, and (2) reduced employee-related expenses due to the Company’s efforts to optimize workforce.
General and administrative expenses were US$2.5 million, representing a decrease of 18.1% from US$3.0 million in the same quarter of last year. The decrease was primarily due to (1) decreased employee-related expenses due to workforce optimization, and (2) decreased professional service fees, such as audit fees and consulting fees.
Research and development expenses were US$260,851 and US$293,780 for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2021, respectively.

Operating loss was US$3.6 million, as compared to an operating loss of US$4.2 million in the same quarter of last year.

Non-GAAP operating loss was US$2.5 million, as compared to Non-GAAP operating loss of US$4.0 million in the same quarter of last year.

Net loss was US$3.8 million, as compared to a net loss of US$4.1 million in the same quarter of last year, as results of the factors described above.

Non-GAAP net loss was US$2.7 million, as compared to Non-GAAP net loss of US$3.9 million in the same quarter of last year.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company uses non-GAAP financial measures in evaluating its business. For example, the Company uses non-GAAP operating income (loss) and non-GAAP net income (loss), 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 operating income (loss) is operating income (loss) excluding the impact of share-based compensation expenses and severance expenses. Non-GAAP net income (loss) is net income (loss) excluding the impact of share-based compensation expenses and severance expenses.

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 operating income (loss) 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 and severance expenses. 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 operating income (loss) and non-GAAP net income (loss) is that they do not reflect all items of income and expense that affect the Company’s operations. Share-based compensation expenses and severance expenses have been and may continue to be incurred in the Company’s business and are not reflected in the presentation of non-GAAP operating income (loss) and non-GAAP net income (loss). Further, the non-GAAP measures may differ from the non-GAAP measures used by other companies, including peer companies, and therefore their comparability may be limited. In light of the foregoing limitations, the non-GAAP operating income (loss) and non-GAAP net income (loss) should not be considered in isolation from or as an alternative to operating income (loss) and net income (loss), 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.” All quarterly results referred to in the text, tables and attachments to this press release are unaudited.
