Larry Xiangdong Chen, GSX’s founder, Chairman and CEO, commented, “We achieved another robust quarter, with net revenues hitting an all-time-high of RMB 1.966 billion, which is 3.5 times that of the same quarter of last year. These outstanding results speak to our continued focus of providing the highest quality services to our students and parents, our consistent training to frontline employees and our unwavering efforts to improve the operational efficiencies and organizational capabilities. In the face of competition and rising customer acquisition costs, we remain committed to pursuing effective traffic acquisition through high ROI channels, sticking to efficient sales and marketing spending, and executing an LTV-based effective growth strategy. In the meantime, we continued to invest extensively in our teaching staff, product design, content development and technology innovations, raise overall compensation for our tutors and attract more top-tier talents – we view all of this spending as an important investment for the long-term future. We recently integrated our K-12 business under our Gaotu Ketang brand to focus on delivering the educational products and services with the quality of a large class, the learning experience of a small class, and the feeling and educational results of one-on-one tutoring. Through Gaotu Ketang, we aim to further enhance our customer experience and implement our effective growth strategy. Regardless of the intense competition today, we still see vast potential in the online education industry and are fully prepared to explore all possibilities based on the solid foundation that we have built over the past years. We are looking forward to generating value and sharing the future of online education with you.”

2

Shannon Shen, CFO of GSX, added, “We achieved just shy of RMB 2 billion in net revenues in the third quarter of 2020, which squarely positions us as one of the top leaders in the online live large class service sector. Our core K-12 business grew to a remarkable 3.8 times compared with that of the same quarter of last year and remained a key driver of net revenues growth. Looking back over the past three years, ever since we have transitioned our business to focus exclusively on the online live large-class model, the scale of our enrollments has exploded and we have generated industry-leading operating margins. All of these achievements were made possible by our laser focus on the satisfaction of our students and parents, and constant improvement of organizational capabilities.”

“The summer vacation of 2020 was significantly shorter than usual as different provinces adopted various holiday schedules in response to the delayed middle school and high school entrance exams. As a result, our course cycles and recruitment pace were also affected. Nevertheless, we were still able to achieve strong growth in topline. In addition, throughout this summer, our student structure has grown sustainable, with the students of non-graduate grade significantly increased, which lays solid foundation for our future retentions.” Shannon noted.

Financial Results for the Third Quarter of 2020

Net Revenues

Net revenues reached RMB1,965.8 million, a 252.9% increase from RMB557.0 million in the third quarter of 2019. The increase was mainly driven by the growth in paid course enrollments for K-12 courses. The number of online K-12 paid course enrollments increased 140.5% year-over-year to 1,147 thousand, which was contributed by both first-time paid course enrollments and retention of existing students. The increase in first-time paid course enrollments was primarily driven by our effective investment in sales and marketing efforts and the increase in retention was primarily driven by high teaching quality and optimized services that we provided.

Cost of Revenues

Cost of revenues rose 220.5% to RMB502.3 million from RMB156.7 million in the third quarter of 2019, mainly due to the increase in compensation for instructors and tutors, learning materials, rental expenses, as well as server and bandwidth costs.

Gross Profit

Gross profit increased 265.6% to RMB1,463.5 million from RMB400.3 million in the third quarter of 2019. Gross profit margin increased to 74.4% from 71.9% in the same period of 2019, primarily as a result of economies of scale.

Non-GAAP gross profit increased 265.1% to RMB1,481.4 million from RMB405.7 million in the same period of 2019. Non-GAAP gross profit margin increased to 75.4% from 72.8% in the same period of 2019.

Selling expenses increased to RMB2,055.8 million from RMB330.4 million in the third quarter of 2019. The increase was primarily a result of higher marketing expenses to expand the user base and enhance our brands, and an increase in compensation to sales and marketing staff.

Research and development expenses increased 286.0% to RMB220.4 million, from RMB57.1 million in the third quarter of 2019. The increase was primarily due to an increase in the number of course professionals and technology development personnel, as well as an increase in compensation for such staff.

General and administrative expenses increased to RMB177.4 million from RMB23.6 million in the third quarter of 2019. The increase in general and administrative expenses was mainly due to an increase in the number of general and administrative personnel, an increase in compensation paid to general and administrative staff, and an increase in fees for investigation purpose.

Income (Loss) from Operations

Loss from operations was RMB990.1 million, compared with the loss from operations of RMB10.8 million in the third quarter of 2019. The increase was primarily due to higher investment in sales and marketing activities to extend volume growth and strengthen brand perception.

Non-GAAP^6^ loss from operations was RMB921.2 million, compared with the income from operations of RMB7.4 million in the third quarter of 2019.

Interest Income and Realized Gains from Investment

Aggregation of interest income and realized gains from investments this quarter, representing the income received from cash, cash equivalents, short-term and long-term wealth management investments, increased 253.8% to RMB18.4 million, from RMB5.2 million in the third quarter of 2019. This increase was primarily due to increase of cash, cash equivalents and short-term wealth management investments, as well as the realization of gains generated from short-term and long-term wealth management investments during this quarter.

OtherIncome

Other income increased to RMB49.9 million, from RMB1.5 million in the third quarter of 2019. The increase was primarily due to the value-added tax exemption offered by the government, partially offset by the related cost, during the COVID-19 outbreak, which amounted to RMB51.5 million, net of other expenses of RMB1.6 million.

^6^	For a reconciliation of non-GAAP numbers, please see the table<br>captioned “Reconciliations of non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP measures” at the end of this press release. Non-GAAP income (loss) from operations,<br>exclude share-based compensation expenses.

Cash Flow

Net operating cash outflow for the third quarter of 2020 was RMB678.8 million.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company uses gross billings, non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP income (loss) from operations and non-GAAP net income (loss), each a non-GAAP financial measure, in evaluating its operating results and for financial and operational decision-making purposes.

7

The Company defines gross billings for a specific period as the total amount of cash received for the sale of course offerings in such period, net of the total amount of refunds in such period. The Company’s management uses gross billings as a performance measurement because the Company generally bills its students for the entire course fee at the time of sale of its course offerings and recognizes revenue proportionally as the classes are delivered over usually no more than 60 classes for K-12 courses. For some courses, the Company continues to provide students with 12 months to 36 months access to the pre-recorded audio-video courses after the online live courses are delivered. The Company believes that gross billings provides valuable insight into the sales of its course packages and the performance of its business. As gross billings have material limitations as an analytical metrics and may not be calculated in the same manner by all companies, it may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies.

Non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP income (loss) from operations and non-GAAP net income (loss) exclude share-based compensation expenses, and such adjustment excludes the impact on income tax. GSX believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding its performance and liquidity by excluding share-based expenses that may not be indicative of its operating performance from a cash perspective. GSX believes that both management and investors benefit from these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing its performance and when planning and forecasting future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate management’s internal comparisons to GSX’s historical performance. A limitation of using non-GAAP measures is that these non-GAAP measures exclude share-based compensation charges that have been and will continue to be for the foreseeable future a significant recurring expense in the Company’s business.

The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation from or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures, please see the table captioned “Reconciliations of non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP measures” set forth at the end of this release.

The accompanying tables have more details on the reconciliations between GAAP financial measures that are most directly comparable to non-GAAP financial measures.

Exchange Rate

The Company’s business is primarily conducted in China and the significant majority of revenues generated are denominated in Renminbi (“RMB”). This announcement contains currency conversions of RMB amounts into U.S. dollars (“USD”) solely for the convenience of the reader. Unless otherwise noted, all translations from RMB to USD are made at a rate of RMB6.7896 to USD1.00, the effective noon buying rate for September 30, 2020 as set forth in the H.10 statistical release of the Federal Reserve Board.
