Mr. Weidong Luo, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Aurora Mobile, commented, “Despite a very challenging operating environment in 2021, we have achieved remarkable progress in our business operations and financial performance. The conclusion of the fourth quarter marked the first full year of our successful transition into our SAAS business model which includes Developer Services and Vertical Applications.

This quarter marks the highest SAAS revenue record for the Company surpassing RMB100 million for the first time, a key milestone for us! Revenues were RMB101.2 million, up by 32% year-over-year, and gross profit was RMB72.1 million, the highest gross profit since Q1’2020, up by 23% year-over-year. In addition. Adjusted EBITDA was RMB1.8 million, the first ever Adjusted EBITDA profitable quarter since our transition to the pure SAAS Businesses since Q1’2021, and Adjusted EBITDA significantly improved by RMB19.0 million year-over-year from negative RMB17.1 million in Q4’2020. Turning into profitability is a strong acknowledgement of our success in growing the topline revenues, as well as our displined approach to drive operational efficiencies throughout the year. We are committed to continue to control and optimize operating expenses across all business functions going forward, and we expect to further drive operating efficiencies in 2022. We are confident that with all these efforts in place, we are on the right path to achieve full year profitability on Ajusted EBITDA for 2022.

Earlier this week, we have entered into a definitive agreement to acquire a majority equity interest in SendCloud, China’s leading Email API platform for consumer marketing and user-centric transactional email services. With the addition of SendCloud’s email sending services, we will be able to quickly enrich our omni-channel customer engagement product offerings which currently include mobile app push notifications, SMS, WeChat official accounts, WeChat mini-programs, Alipay mini-programs, DingTalk, and enterprise WeChat. We therefore can provide customers with industry-leading technology to simplify their omni-channel communications, without having to manage different vendors for each channel. Together, we will have the joint advantages to provide a reliable and effective customer engagement platform for different industry verticals. Our paying customer base is also expected to almost double upon completion of this transaction, and both parties can benefit from this acquisition through more cross-selling opportunities to the combined customer base and help fuel our future revenue growth.”

Mr. Fei Chen, President of Aurora Mobile, added, “In Q4’2021, our Developer Services continued to deliver solid results with a 42% year-over-year growth which was mainly fueled by a substantial 73% growth in Value-added Services and a 27% strong growth in our Subscription Services. Subscription Services revenues were RMB44.4 million, an increase of 27% year-over-year, primarily driven by new customer acquisition and strong growth in the private cloud services.

Value-added Services within Developer Services, which include revenues from JG Alliance services and Advertisement SAAS, continued to deliver impressive results by achieving a 73% year-over-year growth to RMB30.2 million from RMB17.4 million in Q4’2020. Since we first started our Value-added Services in Q4’2019, the revenue has exponentially grown by 8.2 times and reached a new historical high this quarter.

Vertical Applications mainly cover Financial Risk Management and Market Intelligence. These revenues grew steadily by 11% year-over-year, with the highest growth contribution coming from the Financial Risk Management business again. In the Financial Risk Management segment, revenues increased by 18% year-over-year with a solid 43% growth in ARPU. This record-high quarterly revenue has been the most meaningful achievement since Q1’2020, showing that the adverse impact of the pandemic on the Financial Risk Management business segment, is substantially behind us. ”

Mr. Shan-Nen Bong, Chief Financial Officer of Aurora Mobile, added, “For the fourth quarter of 2021, we delivered a set of excellent financials since the beginning of 2020 when we commenced the transition into the SAAS business model.

During the quarter, we streamlined our cost structure in an effort to further improve our overall operating efficiency and to ensure operating expenses remained at a healthy level. For Q4’2021, our operating expenses decreased by 13% year-over-year, which also contributed to the improvement in our Adjusted EBITDA balance. We will continue to optimize our organizational structures and actively manage our operating expenses while sustainably growing our revenues.

Our AR turnover days remained stable at 38 days this quarter compared to 37 days a year ago. Our disciplined accounting policy and cash collecting efforts ensure a timely collection of our Accounts Receivables. The total deferred revenue balance, which represents cash collected in advance from customers, has exceeded RMB100 million at quarter-end for the 7th consecutive quarter. As of December 31, 2021, the balance was RMB123.8 million, up from RMB119.0 million of Q3’2021.”

Fourth Quarter 2021 Financial Results

Revenues were RMB101.2 million (US$15.9 million), a decrease of 5% from RMB106.0 million in the same quarter of last year, mainly due to a 100% decrease in revenues from the legacy Targeted Marketing business as the Company exited this business by the end of 2020, and offset by the strong growth in revenues of 42% from Developer Services and 11% from Vertical Applications. In particular, the revenues from Value-added Services within Developer Services increased by 73% compared to the same quarter of last year.

Cost of revenues was RMB29.1 million (US$4.6 million), a decrease of 36% from RMB45.9 million in the same quarter of last year. The decrease was mainly due to the decrease in media cost of RMB14.2 million as the Company has completely exited from the legacy Targeted Marketing business by the end of 2020.

Gross profit was RMB72.1 million (US$11.3 million), an increase of 20% from RMB60.1 million in the same quarter of last year despite revenues decreased by 5% on a year-over-year basis. This is the result of our successful strategic shift in focus from a low margin legacy Targeted Marketing model to a high margin pure SAAS business model.

Total operating expenses were RMB92.5 million (US$14.5 million), a decrease of 13% from RMB106.5 million in the same quarter of last year.

 

   

Research and development expenses were RMB45.0 million (US$7.1 million), an increase of 11% from RMB40.6 million in the same quarter of last year, mainly due to a RMB4.5 million increase in cloud cost to support the expansion of SAAS Businesses.

 

   

Sales and marketing expenses were RMB33.2 million (US$5.2 million), an increase of 48% from RMB22.3 million in the same quarter of last year, mainly due to an increase in personnel costs.

 

   

General and administrative expenses were RMB14.4 million (US$2.3 million), a decrease of 67% from RMB43.5 million in the same quarter of last year, mainly due to a RMB11.0 million decrease in bad debt provision due to our proactive and strict financial control measures, a RMB11.0 million decrease in long-lived assets impairment charge, and a RMB5.9 million decrease in personnel costs.

Loss from operations was RMB20.5 million (US$3.2 million), compared with RMB46.4 million in the same quarter of last year.

Net Loss was RMB35.6 million (US$5.6 million), compared with RMB89.9 million in the same quarter of last year.

The decrease was primarily due to convertible notes valued at US$35.0 million were fully redeemed in April 2021.

Fiscal year 2021 Financial Results

Revenues were RMB357.3 million (US$56.1 million), a decrease of 24% from RMB471.6 million in 2020, mainly due to a 100% decrease in revenues from the legacy Targeted Marketing business as the Company exited this business by the end of 2020, and offset by the strong growth in revenues of 46% from Developer Services and 24% from Vertical Applications. In particular, the annual revenues from Value-added Services within Developer Services increased by 86% compared to 2020.

Cost of revenues was RMB92.4 million (US$14.5 million), a decrease of 65% from RMB265.4 million in 2020. The decrease was mainly due to the decrease in media cost of RMB165.9 million as the Company has completely exited from the legacy Targeted Marketing business by the end of 2020.

Gross profit was RMB264.9 million (US$41.6 million), an increase of 28% from RMB206.2 million in 2020 despite revenues decreased by 24% year-over-year. This is the result of our successful strategic shift in focus from a low margin legacy Targeted Marketing model to a high margin pure SAAS business model. Gross profit in 2021 was 100% contributed from the SAAS Businesses.

Total operating expenses were RMB403.1 million (US$63.2 million), an increase of 2% from RMB396.0 million in last year.

 

   

Research and development expenses were RMB206.7 million (US$32.4 million), an increase of 18% from RMB174.6 million in last year, mainly due to a RMB16.4 million increase in personnel costs and a RMB18.6 million increase in cloud cost to support the expansion of SAAS Businesses. The impact was partially offset by a RMB3.9 million decrease in depreciation expense.

 

   

Sales and marketing expenses were RMB116.4 million (US$18.3 million), an increase of 14% from RMB102.3 million in last year, mainly due to a RMB9.0 million increase in personnel costs, a RMB2.5 million increase in marketing expense, and a RMB2.9 million increase in travel & entertainment expense.

 

   

General and administrative expenses were RMB79.9 million (US$12.5 million), a decrease of 33% from RMB119.1 million in last year, mainly due to a RMB25.9 million decrease in bad debt provision which was the result of our company-wide concerted focus on strict financial control measures, and a RMB11.0 million decrease in long-lived assets impairment charge.

Loss from operations was RMB138.1 million (US$21.7 million), compared with RMB189.8 million in 2020.

Net Loss was RMB140.6 million (US$22.1 million), compared with RMB225.1 million in 2020.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In evaluating the business, the Company considers and uses two non-GAAP measures, adjusted net loss and adjusted EBITDA, as a supplemental measure to review and assess its 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 defines adjusted net loss as net loss excluding share-based compensation, reduction in force charges, impairment of long-lived assets, impairment of long-term investment and change in fair value of foreign currency swap contract. The Company defines adjusted EBITDA as net loss excluding interest expense, depreciation of property and equipment, amortization of intangible assets, income tax expenses, share-based compensation, reduction in force charges, impairment of long-lived assets, impairment of long-term investment and change in fair value of foreign currency swap contract.

The Company believes that adjusted net loss and adjusted EBITDA help identify underlying trends in its business that could otherwise be distorted by the effect of certain expenses that it includes in loss from operations and net loss.

The Company believes that adjusted net loss and adjusted EBITDA provide useful information about its operating results, enhance the overall understanding of its past performance and future prospects and allow for greater visibility with respect to key metrics used by the management in their financial and operational decision-making.

 

6


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 adjusted net loss and adjusted EBITDA is that they do not reflect all items of income and expense that affect the Company’s operations. Further, the non-GAAP financial 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 you to review its financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.

Reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable U.S. GAAP measure are included at the end of this press release.
