Mr. Andy Liu, Founder, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company commented, “We managed to deliver strong results with healthy top-line growth of 11% year-over-year for the full year, fueled by strategic market expansion and new contract acquisitions.”
“As we continue to evolve our products and services, leveraging AI for enhanced automation and user experience, we received encouraging feedback and market recognition from users. Looking ahead, with a strong pipeline of AI-enhanced products and a customer-centric roadmap, we are poised to deliver sustainable growth and industry-leading innovations in the future.” he concluded.
Mr. Michael Du, Director and Chief Financial Officer of the Company commented, “In the fourth quarter, our teaching and learning SaaS offering under subscription model experienced three-digit growth compared to the same quarter last year, bolstered by strong retention rates and multi-year subscription renewals. As we enhance operating efficiency, operating expenses decreased by 34% compared to the same quarter last year, resulting in a 35% reduction in net loss on a GAAP basis.”
Fourth Quarter 2024 Unaudited Financial Results
Net Revenues
Net revenues for the fourth quarter of 2024 were RMB36.6 million (US$5.0 million), representing a year-over-year decrease of 22.7% from RMB47.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2023. This was mainly due to (i) the reduction in net revenues from district-level projects as we prioritize our resources on school-based projects under subscription model, and (ii) a higher proportion of contracts under the SaaS subscription model we signed in the fourth quarter of 2024 which requires longer period of revenue recognition.
Cost of Revenues
Cost of revenues for the fourth quarter of 2024 was RMB24.3 million (US$3.3 million), representing a year-over-year decrease of 9.2% from RMB26.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2023, which was mainly due to fewer district-level project deliveries for our teaching and learning SaaS offerings, as a result of the growing proportion of recurring revenue under subscription model that requires fewer hardware and software deliveries.
Gross Profit and Gross Margin
Gross profit for the fourth quarter of 2024 was RMB12.3 million (US$1.7 million), compared with RMB20.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2023.
Gross margin for the fourth quarter of 2024 was 33.6%, compared with 43.4% in the fourth quarter of 2023.
Total Operating Expenses

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
17EdTech’s management uses adjusted net income (loss) as a non-GAAP financial measure to gain an understanding of 17EdTech’s comparative operating performance and future prospects.
Adjusted net income (loss) represents net loss excluding share-based compensation expenses and such adjustment has no impact on income tax.
Adjusted net income (loss) is used by 17EdTech’s management in their financial and operating decision-making as a non-GAAP financial measure; because management believes it reflects 17EdTech’s ongoing business and operating performance in a manner that allows meaningful period-to-period comparisons. 17EdTech’s management believes that such non-GAAP measure provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating 17EdTech’s operating performance in the same manner as management does, if they so choose. Specifically, 17EdTech believes the non-GAAP measure provides useful information to both management and investors by excluding certain charges that the Company believes are not indicative of its core operating results.
The non-GAAP financial measure has limitations. It does not include all items of income and expense that affect 17EdTech’s income from operations. Specifically, the non-GAAP financial measure is not prepared in accordance with GAAP, may not be comparable to non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies and, with respect to the non-GAAP financial measure that excludes certain items under GAAP, does not reflect any benefit that such items may confer to 17EdTech. Management compensates for these limitations by also considering 17EdTech’s financial results as determined in accordance with GAAP. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered superior to, in isolation from or as a substitute for results prepared in accordance with US GAAP.
Exchange Rate Information
The Company’s business is primarily conducted in China and all of the revenues are denominated in Renminbi (“RMB”). However, periodic reports made to shareholders will include current period amounts translated into U.S. dollars (“USD” or “US$”) using the exchange rate as of balance sheet date, for the convenience of the readers. Translations of balances in the consolidated balance sheets and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive loss, change in shareholders’ deficit and cash flows from RMB into USD as of and for the three months and the year ended December 31, 2024 are solely for the convenience of the readers and were calculated at the rate of US$1.00=RMB7.2993 representing the noon buying rate set forth in the H.10 statistical release of the U.S. Federal Reserve Board on December 31, 2024. No representation is made that the RMB amounts could have been, or could be, converted, realized or settled into US$ at that rate on December 31, 2024, or at any other rate.
