Mr. Junling Liu, Co-Founder, Chairman, and Chief Executive Officer of 111, commented, “While the macroeconomic environment in China continues to present challenges, we are proud of our ability to maintain operational profitability for the third consecutive quarter. This achievement is a testament to the strength of our business model as a one-stop shopping platform that offers the most comprehensive selection of pharmaceutical products at competitive prices. It also highlights our commitment to operational efficiency across the organization. As a result, income from operations in Q3 reached RMB2.4 million, a significant improvement from an operational loss of RMB80.4 million in the prior year.”

Mr. Liu added, “We gained greater operational efficiency through diligent cost management, ongoing infrastructure investments, and effective staffing arrangements, all of which has enabled us to navigate an unfavorable consumer spending environment while delivering solid performance results. Operating expenses were 5.8% of revenues, a reduction of 160 basis points compared to the previous year, while non-GAAP operating expenses as a percentage of revenues decreased by 100 basis points to 5.7%. We aim to lead the pharmaceutical e-commerce sector in efficiency and sharpen our competitive advantages. As we scale and optimize operations, we expect further cost savings, which will be reinvested into growth initiatives, including technological advancements, market expansion, and client base growth, driving future profitability.”

“We are strengthening our core competitiveness in digitalization through advancements across multiple areas, laying a strong foundation for an agile, highly efficient, and customer-centric business that can swiftly adapt to evolving industry needs. Additionally, we’ve bolstered our supply chain with an expanded transshipment network and new fulfillment centers, further enhancing our service capabilities.”

“Despite challenges, we are still confident in the long-term opportunities ahead. Our investments in AI and digital technologies are not only providing industry-leading efficiency and reshaping the healthcare value chain, but also positioning us to capture significant shifts in the pharmaceutical industry—particularly the unstoppable trend of digital transformation, the growing demand for out-of-hospital drug distribution, and the expansion of the silver economy. By deepening our partnerships with pharmaceutical companies, expanding our fulfillment network, refining our digital platforms, and prioritizing new growth engines, we are well-positioned to engage more industry stakeholders, meet the needs of a broad customer base, and generate sustained growth.”

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In evaluating the business, the Company considers and uses non-GAAP income (loss) from operations, non-GAAP net income (loss), non-GAAP net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders, and non-GAAP loss per ADS, as supplemental measures to review and assess its operating performance. The Company defines non-GAAP income (loss) from operations as income (loss) from operations excluding share-based compensation expenses. The Company defines non-GAAP net income (loss) as net loss excluding share-based compensation expenses, net of tax. The Company defines non-GAAP net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders as net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders excluding share-based compensation expenses, net of tax. The Company defines non-GAAP loss per ADS as net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders per ADS excluding share-based compensation expenses, net of tax 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 income (loss) from operations, non-GAAP net income (loss), 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 income (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 income (loss) from operations, non-GAAP net income (loss), 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 income (loss) from operations, non-GAAP net income (loss), 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.
