Pinduoduo Announces Third Quarter 2019 Unaudited Financial Results

 

SHANGHAI, CHINA, November 20, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Pinduoduo Inc. (“Pinduoduo” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: PDD), an innovative and fast growing technology platform and one of the leading Chinese e-commerce players, today announced its unaudited financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2019.

 

Third Quarter 2019 Highlights

 

·                          GMV1 in the twelve-month period ended September 30, 2019 was RMB840.2 billion (US$2117.5 billion), an increase of 144% from RMB344.8 billion in the twelve-month period ended September 30, 2018.

 

·                          Total revenues in the quarter were RMB7,513.9 million (US$1,051.2 million), an increase of 123% from RMB3,372.4 million in the same quarter of 2018.

 

·                          Average monthly active users3 in the quarter were 429.6 million, an increase of 85% from 231.7 million in the same quarter of 2018.

 

·                          Active buyers4 in the twelve-month period ended September 30, 2019 were 536.3 million, an increase of 39% from 385.5 million in the twelve-month period ended September 30, 2018.

 

·                          Annual spending per active buyer5 in the twelve-month period ended September 30, 2019 was RMB1,566.7 (US$219.2), an increase of 75% from RMB894.4 in the twelve-month period ended September 30, 2018.

 

“We celebrated our fourth anniversary in early October with an annual active buyer base exceeding half a billion for the twelve-month period ended September 30, 2019,” said Mr. Zheng Huang, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Pinduoduo. “We continued to invest in our users throughout the third quarter, and stepped our marketing up a notch from the second half of September for the launch of our anniversary sale. This has added to our steady momentum of user growth as our average monthly active users grew by 64 million from the prior quarter to reach 430 million. Coupled with greater user engagement and frequency of visit, annual spending per active buyer has grown 75% year-over-year, driving our last-twelve-month GMV up 144% to reach RMB840.2 billion. We will work even harder to deliver a consistently improving user experience and build up our users’ trust and familiarity with our platform.”

 


1         “GMV” refers to the total value of all orders for products and services placed on the Pinduoduo mobile platform, regardless of whether the products and services are actually sold, delivered or returned. Buyers on the platform are not charged for shipping fees in addition to the listed price of merchandise. Hence, merchants may embed the shipping fees in the listed price. If embedded, then the shipping fees are included in GMV. As a prudential matter aimed at eliminating any influence on Pinduoduo’s GMV of irregular transactions, the Company excludes from its calculation of GMV transactions over certain amounts (RMB100,000) and transactions by buyers over a certain amount (RMB1,000,000) per day.

2         This announcement contains translations of certain Renminbi (RMB) amounts into U.S. dollars (US$) at a specified rate solely for the convenience of the reader. Unless otherwise noted, the translation of RMB into US$ has been made at RMB7.1477 to US$1.00, the noon buying rate in effect on September 30, 2019 as set forth in the H.10 Statistical Release of the Federal Reserve Board.

3         “Monthly active users” refers to the number of user accounts that visited the Pinduoduo mobile app during a given month, which does not include those that accessed the platform through social networks and access points.

4         “Active buyers” in a given period refers to the number of user accounts that placed one or more orders (i) on the Pinduoduo mobile app, and (ii) through social networks and access points in that period, regardless of whether the products and services are actually sold, delivered or returned.

5         “Annual spending per active buyer” in a given period refers to the quotient of total GMV in that period divided by the number of active buyers in the same period.

“For the quarter ended September 30, 2019, our total revenues increased by 123% year-over-year to RMB7,513.9 million, as merchant demand for our online marketing services continued to grow,” added Mr. David Liu, Vice President of Strategy. “While we continue to invest in sales and marketing, we also maintain a healthy cash position, with positive operating cashflows and over RMB40.3 billion in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments. This puts us in a good position to make the necessary investments for our long-term growth.”

 

Third Quarter 2019 Unaudited Financial Results

 

Total revenues were RMB7,513.9 million (US$1,051.2 million), an increase of 123% from RMB3,372.4 million in the same quarter of 2018. The increase was primarily due to an increase in revenues from online marketing services.

 

·                          Revenues from online marketing services were RMB6,711.4 million (US$938.9 million), an increase of 126% from RMB2,974.1 million in the same quarter of 2018.

 

·                          Revenues from transaction services were RMB802.5 million (US$112.3 million), an increase of 101% from RMB398.3 million in the same quarter of 2018.

 

Total costs of revenues were RMB1,833.3 million (US$256.5 million), an increase of 137% from RMB774.7 million in the same quarter of 2018. The increase was mainly due to higher costs for cloud services, call center and merchant support services.

 

Total operating expenses were RMB8,472.6 million (US$1,185.4 million), compared with RMB3,867.2 million in the same quarter of 2018.

 

·                          Sales and marketing expenses were RMB6,908.8 million (US$966.6 million), an increase of 114% from RMB3,229.6 million in the same quarter of 2018, mainly due to an increase in online and offline advertisement and promotions.

 

·                          General and administrative expenses were RMB436.6 million (US$61.1 million), an increase of 43% from RMB305.6 million in the same quarter of 2018, primarily due to expenses relating to our initiatives where we work with local governments to alleviate rural poverty.

 

·                          Research and development expenses were RMB1,127.2 million (US$157.7 million), an increase of 240% from RMB332.0 million in the same quarter of 2018. The increase was primarily due to an increase in headcount and the recruitment of more experienced R&D personnel, and an increase in R&D-related cloud services expenses and share-based compensation expenses.

Operating loss was RMB2,792.0 million (US$390.6 million), compared with operating loss of RMB1,269.5 million in the same quarter of 2018. Non-GAAP operating loss6 was RMB2,123.5 million (US$297.1 million), compared with RMB790.0 million in the same quarter of 2018.

 

Net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders was RMB2,335.0 million (US$326.7 million), compared with net loss of RMB1,098.3 million in the same quarter of 2018. Non-GAAP net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders was RMB1,660.4 million (US$232.3 million), compared with non-GAAP net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of RMB618.9 million in the same quarter of 2018.

 

Basic and diluted net loss per ADS were RMB2.00 (US$0.28), compared with net loss per ADS of RMB1.20 in the same quarter of 2018. Non-GAAP basic and diluted net loss per ADS were RMB1.44 (US$0.20), compared with non-GAAP basic and diluted net loss per ADS of RMB0.68 in the same quarter of 2018.

 

Net cash provided by operating activities was RMB2,618.2 million (US$366.3 million), compared with RMB1,631.4 million in the same quarter of 2018, primarily due to an increase in online marketing services revenues.

 

Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash were RMB34.4 billion (US$4.8 billion) as of September 30, 2019, compared with RMB30.5 billion as of December 31, 2018.

 


6         The Company’s non-GAAP financial measures exclude share-based compensation expenses and interest expenses related to the convertible bonds’ amortization to face value.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

In evaluating the business, the Company considers and uses non-GAAP measures, such as non-GAAP operating loss and non-GAAP net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders, as supplemental measures to review and assess 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 accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The Company’s non-GAAP financial measures exclude share-based compensation expenses and interest expenses related to the convertible bonds’ amortization to face value.

 

The Company presents these non-GAAP financial measures because they are used by management to evaluate operating performance and formulate business plans. The Company believes that the non-GAAP financial measures help identify underlying trends in its business by excluding the impact of share-based compensation expenses and interest expenses related to the Convertible bonds’ amortization to face value, which is a non-cash charge. The Company also believes that the non-GAAP financial measures could 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 expenses that affect the Company’s operations and do not represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures. Further, 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 performance. The Company encourages you to review the Company’s financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.

 

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 press release.
