“Our ongoing investment in AI technology facilitated our ability to consistently introduce and broaden our digital content services and smart device offerings throughout 2022. In both the third and fourth quarters, the net revenues from our digital content services covered its costs and operating expenses, showing the improved health of our business. Our new smart devices launched in the second half of 2022, including upgraded dictionary pens and smart learning pads, were highly recognized by customers, which led to strong sales growth during the November 11 Shopping Festival. As a result of the solid performance of our new services and smart devices, we achieved record-high net revenues and our first-ever income from operations in the fourth quarter. Our improved financial and operating indicators demonstrate that we have the right strategy in place to support our growth trajectory,” said Dr. Feng Zhou, Chief Executive Officer and Director of Youdao.

“Years of experience have taught us that the full value of AI cannot be realized on its own. To effectively support users, technologies must be integrated with sound business scenarios. Looking ahead, we will continue to prioritize our users. By leveraging our advanced technology and innovation, we will continue to introduce additional high-quality educational products and services to meet users’ diverse and personalized demands.” Dr. Zhou concluded.

Gross margin for smart devices increased to 46.2% for the fourth quarter of 2022 from 30.8% for the same period of 2021. The improvement was mainly attributable to the popularity of Youdao’s newly launched Youdao Dictionary Pen X5, which carries a higher gross margin than other products.

Gross margin for online marketing services was 29.2% for the fourth quarter of 2022, compared with 32.6% for the same period of 2021.

The increase was mainly attributable to an increase in employee related expenses in the fourth quarter of 2022.

Non-GAAPMeasures

Youdao considers and uses non-GAAP financial measures, such as non-GAAP net income/(loss) from continuing operations attributable to the Company’s ordinary shareholders and non-GAAP basic and diluted income/(loss) from continuing operations per ADS, as supplemental metrics in reviewing and assessing its operating performance and formulating its business plan. The presentation of 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 accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).

Youdao defines non-GAAP net income/(loss) from continuing operations attributable to the Company’s ordinary shareholders as net income/(loss) from continuing operations attributable to the Company’s ordinary shareholders excluding share-based compensation expenses, amortization of intangible assets from business combination, impairment of long-term investments, impairment of intangible assets from business combination, income tax effects of above GAAP to non-GAAP reconciling items, and adjustment for GAAP to non-GAAP reconciling items for the income/(loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests. Non-GAAP net income/(loss) from continuing operations attributable to the Company’s shareholders enables Youdao’s management to assess its operating results without considering the impact of these items, which are non-cash charges in nature. Youdao believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors in understanding and evaluating the Company’s current operating performance and prospects in the same manner as management does, if they so choose.

Non-GAAP financial measures are not defined under U.S. GAAP and are not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, which possibly do not reflect all items of expense that affect our operations. In addition, the non-GAAP financial measures Youdao uses may differ from the non-GAAP measures uses by other companies, including peer companies, and therefore their comparability may be limited.

For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures, please see the table captioned “Unaudited Reconciliation of GAAP and non-GAAP Results” set forth at the end of this release.

The accompanying table has more details on the reconciliation between our GAAP financial measures that are mostly directly comparable to non-GAAP financial measures. Youdao encourages you to review its financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.
