    Total   2,025,321   2,575,500
             

    Note:
    (1) Includes net revenues from (i) commission fee, and online advertising and marketing services of RMB830,560 and RMB1,139,266 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2023, respectively; and (ii) fulfillment services and others of RMB571,710 and RMB687,389 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2023, respectively.

    • Net revenues generated from Dada Now increased by 20.2% from RMB623.1 million in the first quarter of 2022 to RMB748.8 million in the first quarter of 2023, mainly driven by the increases in order volume of intra-city delivery service to chain merchants.
    • Net revenues generated from JDDJ increased by 30.3% from RMB1,402.3 million in the first quarter of 2022 to RMB1,826.7 million in the first quarter of 2023, mainly due to the increase in GMV. The increase in online marketing services revenue as a result of the increasing promotional activities launched by brand owners and retailers also contributed to the increment of the net revenues generated from JDDJ.

    Total costs and expenses were RMB2,974.2 million, compared with RMB2,664.3 million in the same quarter of 2022.

    • Operations and support costs were RMB1,437.2 million, compared with RMB1,270.3 million in the same quarter of 2022. The increase was primarily due to an increase in rider cost as a result of increasing order volume for intra-city delivery services provided to various chain merchants.
    • Selling and marketing expenses were RMB1,316.6 million, compared with RMB1,114.5 million in the same quarter of 2022. The increase was primarily due to (i) growing incentives to JDDJ consumers, and (ii) amortization of the business cooperation agreement (“BCA”) in connection with the share subscription transaction with JD.com in February 2022.
    • General and administrative expenses were RMB78.6 million, compared with RMB100.8 million in the same quarter of 2022. The decrease was primarily due to efficient expense control measures and decreased share-based compensation expenses.
    • Research and development expenses were RMB128.8 million, compared with RMB164.7 million in the same quarter of 2022. The decrease was mainly attributable to the decrease in research and development personnel cost.

    Loss from operations was RMB386.4 million, compared with RMB625.7 million in the same quarter of 2022.

    Non-GAAP loss from operations1 was RMB216.6 million, compared with RMB501.4 million in the same quarter of 2022.

    Net loss was RMB350.4 million, compared with RMB604.2 million in the same period of 2022.

    Non-GAAP net loss2 was RMB182.0 million, compared with RMB481.2 million in the same period of 2022.

    Net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of Dada was RMB350.4 million, compared with RMB604.2 million in the same quarter of 2022.

    Non-GAAP net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of Dada3 was RMB182.0 million, compared with RMB481.2 million in the same quarter of 2022.

    Basic and diluted net loss per share was RMB0.34, compared with RMB0.62 for the first quarter of 2022.

    Non-GAAP basic and diluted net loss per share4 was RMB0.18, compared with RMB0.49 for the first quarter of 2022.

    As of March 31, 2023, the Company had RMB3,722.0 million in cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and short-term investments, a decrease from RMB4,370.4 million as of December 31, 2022.

    Environment, Social Responsibility and Corporate Governance

    The Company continued to execute its ESG strategy in a committed and proactive way:

    • To help more retailers and brands seize the growth opportunities of on-demand retail, JDDJ launched the "A Million Store" program, which aimed at helping merchants, especially small and medium-sized merchants, onboard JDDJ to increase sales and reduce costs with on-demand digital retail solutions. Under the guidance of the Commerce Commission of Yangpu District of Shanghai and the Shanghai E-Purchasing Chamber of Commerce, the program kicked off in Shanghai in March, and will be rolled out in more than 100 cities across the country.
    • Starting in mid-April, under the guidance of the local government authorities, JDDJ launched the “2023 Urban Life Shopping Season” campaigns in cities including Nanning, Tianjin, Chongqing, Shenzhen, and Shanghai. Through the events, JDDJ partnered with various retail chains and brands to stimulate consumer demand and boost domestic consumption.
    • In March, the State Administration for Market Regulation and the Standardization Administration of China approved the release of the Specifications for On-demand Delivery Services, the very first national standard in the field of on-demand delivery. As one of the main drafters, Dada Now participated in the formulation of the standard throughout the entire process, making an enduring contribution to the robust development of the on-demand delivery industry.

    Business Outlook

    For the second quarter of 2023, Dada expects total revenue to be between RMB2,800 million and RMB3,000 million, representing year-over-year growth of 22.7% to 31.5%. This outlook is based on information available as of the date of this press release and reflects the Company's current and preliminary expectations, which are subject to change in light of various uncertainties.

    Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

    The Company also uses certain non-GAAP financial measures in evaluating its business. For example, the Company uses non-GAAP income/(loss) from operations, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income/(loss), non-GAAP net margin, non-GAAP net income/(loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders of Dada and non-GAAP net income/(loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders of Dada per share as supplemental measures to review and assess its financial and 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. Non-GAAP income/(loss) from operations is income/(loss) from operations excluding the impact of share-based compensation expenses and amortization of intangible assets resulting from business acquisition. Non-GAAP operating margin is non-GAAP income/(loss) from operations as a percentage of total net revenues. Non-GAAP net income/(loss) is net income/(loss) excluding the impact of share-based compensation expenses, amortization of intangible assets resulting from business acquisition and tax benefit from amortization of such intangible assets. Non-GAAP net margin is non-GAAP net income/(loss) as a percentage of total net revenues. Non-GAAP net income/(loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders of Dada is net income/(loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders of Dada excluding the impact of share-based compensation expenses, amortization of intangible assets resulting from business acquisition and tax benefit from amortization of such intangible assets. Non-GAAP net income/(loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders of Dada per share is non-GAAP net income/(loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders of Dada divided by weighted average number of shares used in calculating net income/(loss) per share.

    The Company presents the non-GAAP financial measures because they are used by the Company’s management to evaluate the Company’s financial and operating performance and formulate business plans. Non-GAAP income/(loss) from operations and non-GAAP net income/(loss) enable the Company’s management to assess the Company’s financial and operating results without considering the impact of share-based compensation expenses, amortization of intangible assets resulting from business acquisition and tax benefit from amortization of such intangible assets. The Company also believes that the use of the non-GAAP measures facilitates investors’ assessment of the Company’s financial and operating performance.

    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 income/(loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders of Dada, and non-GAAP net income/(loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders of Dada per share is that they do not reflect all items of income and expense that affect the Company’s operations. Share-based compensation expenses, amortization of intangible assets resulting from business acquisition and tax benefit from amortization of such intangible assets have been and may continue to be incurred in the Company’s business and is not reflected in the presentation of non-GAAP income/(loss) from operations, non-GAAP net income/(loss), non-GAAP net income/(loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders of Dada, and non-GAAP net income/(loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders of Dada per share. Further, the non-GAAP measures may differ from the non-GAAP measures used by other companies, including peer companies, potentially limiting the comparability of their financial results to the Company’s. In light of the foregoing limitations, the non-GAAP income/(loss) from operations, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income/(loss), non-GAAP net margin, non-GAAP net income/(loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders of Dada and non-GAAP net income/(loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders of Dada per share for the period should not be considered in isolation from or as an alternative to income/(loss) from operations, operating margin, net income/(loss), net margin, net income/(loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders of Dada and net income/(loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders of Dada per share, or other financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

    The Company compensates for these limitations by reconciling the non-GAAP financial measures to the nearest U.S. GAAP performance measures, which should be considered when evaluating the Company’s performance. For reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, please see the section of the accompanying tables titled, “Reconciliations of GAAP and Non-GAAP Results.”
