SHANGHAI, Aug. 27, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- 111, Inc. ("111" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: YI), a leading tech-enabled healthcare platform company committed to digitally connecting patients with medicine and healthcare services in China, today announced its unaudited financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2021.
Second Quarter 2021 Highlights
(1) Operating expenses consist of fulfillment expenses, selling and marketing expenses, general and administrative expenses, technology expenses and other operating expenses. (2) Non-GAAP net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders represents net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders excluding share-based compensation expenses. |
Mr. Junling Liu, Co-Founder, Chairman, and Chief Executive Officer of 111, commented, "The second quarter represents another period of strong growth, as net revenue increased 86.5% year-over-year to RMB 3.0 billion, marking the 12th consecutive quarter of year-over-year growth for 111 since the company's IPO. Our top- and bottom-line growth this quarter was driven by our B2B business, which saw year-over-year revenue and gross profit increases of 99% and 120%, respectively."
Mr. Liu added, "Also during the second quarter and as a growing trend in 2021, we have seen significant increased demand for 111's service offerings, such as marketplace vendor services, online medical consultations, cloud and e-prescription services, digital marketing, supply chain management, and others. We are pleased to report that service revenue grew 125% year-over-year during the second quarter, contributing to a diversified revenue stream for 111, and demonstrating successful execution of our strategy."
"Additionally, our supply chain continued to grow substantially during Q2 2021. We greatly expanded our partnerships with both domestic and global pharmaceutical companies, now totaling 381 partners, up from 259 partners in the prior year. We are happy to report similar growth across other performance indicators for 111, including the coverage of number of pharmacies in our network, which has grown to 355,000, a significant increase from 260,000 in the second quarter of 2020. As our market coverage continues to increase, now encompassing approximately 65% of China's total retail pharmacies, our customers are able to benefit from this scale. Purchases from existing customers made up 95% of our revenue this quarter, demonstrating growing customer loyalty and satisfaction."
"In the second quarter we continued to invest in our industry-leading technology. Technology expenses increased 186.0% year-over-year, accounting for 1.7% of net revenues this quarter as compared to 1.1% in the same quarter of last year. We are proud to announce that these increased investments in technology are yielding results, as we have obtained a total of 18 patents for our internally-developed proprietary technology in areas of digital health, big data analytics, and SMART supply chain technology. Our cutting-edge technology solutions not only support our internal efficient supply chain infrastructure, but also enable our customers, including the pharmacies in our network, to better serve their consumers using our suite of SaaS enterprise solutions. In addition, we continue to offer more innovative solutions to healthcare providers. For example, our 1 Clinic, which offers e-hospital service, is seamlessly connecting doctors and patients through our digital solutions, making 1 Clinic an attractive platform for pharmaceutical companies looking to launch and commercialize new drugs in China. Notably, we have already begun to partner with numerous pharmaceutical companies looking to leverage our technology and network to commercialize their products. These partnerships include Eli Lily's Trulicity, Taltz, and Verzenio, which treat diabetes, severe plaque psoriasis, and metastatic breast cancer, respectively, as well as Novartis' Consentyx, which treats plaque psoriasis, and Sanofi's Dupixent, for the treatment of eczema."
"Other notable highlights from the second quarter," continued Mr. Liu, "include the growth of our digital franchise initiative, which we branded as 1 Health Membership rewards program, which reached a key milestone of eclipsing 10,000 participating stores in Q2 2021. This exclusive loyalty-driven program features an annual fee and allows our members access to numerous privileged benefits and has shown to be popular with the retail pharmacies within our network. Member stores are able to enjoy centralized and streamlined procurement, as well as access to tools such as our SMART CRM system, that helps manage their businesses and customers, and assists in expanding their businesses."
"To conclude," stated Mr. Liu, "we will continue to focus on growth, not only top-line growth, but also growing our margins. We will continue to strengthen our team, provide innovative services, and capitalize on our technology-enabled infrastructure. We are committed to advancing China's healthcare system, improving access to medicine and medical services, and ultimately delivering excellent value to our shareholders. We are well-positioned to continue to transform the healthcare landscape in China, operating in an environment where regulatory and industry tailwinds fly in our favor."

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In evaluating the business, the Company considers and uses non-GAAP loss from operations, non-GAAP net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders, and non-GAAP loss per ADS, non-GAAP measures, as supplemental measures to review and assess its operating performance. The Company defines non-GAAP loss from operations as loss from operations excluding share-based compensation expenses. The Company defines non-GAAP net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders as net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders excluding share-based compensation expenses. The Company defines non-GAAP loss per ADS as loss per ADS excluding share-based compensation expenses per ADS. 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 believes that non-GAAP loss from operations, non-GAAP net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders, and non-GAAP loss per ADS help identify underlying trends in its business that could otherwise be distorted by the effect of certain expenses that it includes in loss from operations and net loss. Share-based compensation expenses is a non-cash expense that varies from period to period. As a result, management excludes the items from its internal operating forecasts and models. Management believes that the adjustments for share-based compensation expenses provide investors with a reasonable basis to measure the company's core operating performance, in a more meaningful comparison with the performance of other companies. The Company believes that non-GAAP loss from operations, non-GAAP net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders, and non-GAAP loss per ADS provide useful information about its operating results, enhances the overall understanding of its past performance and future prospects and allow for greater visibility with respect to key metrics used by the management in their financial and operational decision-making.
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 loss from operations, non-GAAP net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders, or non-GAAP loss per ADS is that it does not reflect all items of income and expense that affect the Company's operations. Further, the non-GAAP financial measures 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 most comparable U.S. GAAP measures, all of which should be considered when evaluating the Company's performance. The Company encourages you to review its financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.
Reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable U.S. GAAP measures is included at the end of this press release.
