Total net revenues were RMB11,995.5 million (US$1,735.6 million), representing an increase of 35.3% from RMB8,865.4 million in the same quarter of 2025.

The increase primarily resulted from the Company’s business expansion. Meanwhile, operating expenses as a percentage of total net revenues was 94.0%, compared to 91.7% in the same quarter of 2025.

Depreciation and amortization expenses were RMB451.6 million (US$65.3 million), representing an increase of 33.7% from RMB337.8 million in the same quarter of 2025.

Delivery expenses were RMB1,307.9 million (US$189.2 million), representing an increase of 89.8% from RMB689.0 million in the same quarter of 2025. The significant increase was mainly driven by the rise in delivery volumes from the third-party platforms.
Sales and marketing expenses were RMB732.4 million (US$106.0 million), representing an increase of 47.5% from RMB496.4 million in the same quarter of 2025.

KEY DEFINITIONS
GMV (gross merchandise value) refers to the transaction amount from the sales of freshly brewed and non-freshly brewed items through self-operated stores and partnership stores.
Total net revenues include revenues from product sales and revenues from partnership stores.
Revenues from product sales mainly include net revenue from the sales of freshly brewed and non-freshly brewed items through self-operated stores, e-commerce and revenue from delivery for self-operated stores.
Revenues from self-operated stores include net revenue from the sales of freshly brewed and non-freshly brewed items through self-operated stores, and delivery fees derived from self-operated stores paid by the Company’s customers.
Revenues from partnership stores include net revenue from the sales of materials, equipment, delivery services, profit sharing and royalty fees, franchise and other services from partnership stores.
Same-store sales growth for self-operated stores. Defined as the year-over-year growth rate of total revenues from self-operated stores that are identified as qualifying on a monthly basis, meaning stores that were in operation at the beginning of the comparable month and remained open through the end of the current month. Same-store sales growth is calculated by dividing the sum of each current month’s revenue from qualified self-operated stores by the sum of each comparable month’s revenue from those same qualified self-operated stores. Beginning in the first quarter of 2026, we adjusted this definition to better reflect the sales growth of our self-operated stores. Comparative figures from previous periods presented have been adjusted to conform to the updated definition.
Store level operating profit – self-operated stores. Calculated by deducting cost for self-operated stores including cost of direct materials (including wastage in stores), cost of delivery packaging materials, storage and logistics expenses, commissions to third-party delivery platforms related to revenues from self-operated stores, store depreciation expense (including decoration loss for store closure), store rental and other operating costs, delivery expense, transaction fees, store preopening and other expenses from the Company’s self-operated store revenues.
Store-level operating margin – self-operated stores. Calculated by dividing store-level operating profit by total revenues from self-operated stores.
Total number of stores. The number of stores open at the ending of the period.
Net new store openings. The number of gross new stores opened during the period minus the number of stores permanently closed during the period.
Average monthly transacting customers. The total of each month’s number of transacting customers divided by the number of months during the period (includes those of partnership stores and those only paid with free-coupons).
Non-GAAP operating income/(loss). Calculated by operating income/(loss) excluding share-based compensation expenses.
Non-GAAP net income/(loss). Calculated by net income/(loss) excluding recurring item of share-based compensation expenses and income tax effects of GAAP to non-GAAP reconciling items.
Non-GAAP net income/(loss) attributable to the Company’s ordinary shareholders. Calculated by adjusting net income/(loss) attributable to the Company’s ordinary shareholders excluding recurring item of share-based compensation expenses and income tax effects of GAAP to non-GAAP reconciling items.
Non-GAAP basic and diluted net income/(loss) per shares. Calculated as non-GAAP net income/(loss) attributable to the Company’s ordinary shareholders divided by weighted average number of basic and diluted share.
Non-GAAP basic and diluted net income/(loss) per ADSs. Calculated as non-GAAP net income/(loss) attributable to the Company’s ordinary shareholders divided by weighted average number of basic and diluted ADS.
USE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
In evaluating the business, the Company considers and uses non-GAAP operating income/(loss) and non-GAAP net income/(loss), each a non-GAAP financial measure, in reviewing and assessing the Company’s 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. The Company presents these non-GAAP financial measures because they are used by the Company’s management to evaluate operating performance and formulate business plans. The Company believes that the non-GAAP financial measures help identify underlying trends in the Company’s business, provide further information about the Company’s results of operations and enhance the overall understanding of the Company’s past performance and future prospects.
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. The Company’s non-GAAP financial measures do not reflect all items of income and expense that affect the Company’s operations and do not represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures. Furthermore, these non-GAAP 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 nearest U.S. GAAP performance measure, all of which should be considered when evaluating the Company’s performance. The Company encourages investors and others to review the Company’s financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.
The Company defines non-GAAP operating income/(loss) as operating income/(loss) excluding share-based compensation expenses, non-GAAP net income/(loss) as net income/(loss) excluding recurring item of share-based compensation expenses and income tax effects of GAAP to non-GAAP reconciling items, and non-GAAP net income/(loss) attributable to the Company’s ordinary shareholders as net income/(loss) attributable to the Company’s ordinary shareholders excluding recurring item of share-based compensation expenses and income tax effects of GAAP to non-GAAP reconciling items.
For more information on the non-GAAP financial measures, please see the table captioned “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures to the Most Directly Comparable GAAP Measures” set forth at the end of this earnings release.
