Net Revenues Increased Over 106% Resulting from Higher Net Selling Prices and Increase in Items Sold

Achieved 16% Store Level Profit Margin In the First Half Year of 2021

BEIJING, Oct. 21, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Luckin Coffee Inc. (in Provisional Liquidation) (“Luckin Coffee” or the “Company”) (OTC: LKNCY) today announced its unaudited financial results for the six months ended June 30, 2021. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company’s business and financial performance in the first half year of 2020 were materially adversely affected. The Company cautions investors to take this into account when comparing and evaluating period-over-period growth metrics.

COMPANY STATEMENT

“This earnings announcement is an important milestone as it enables us to return to normalized financial reporting,” said Dr. Jinyi Guo, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Luckin Coffee. “I am pleased with the overall performance we achieved in the first half of 2021. In particular, it is worth noting that substantial revenue growth was driven by an increase in average revenue per self-operated store. Several factors contributed to our strong performance. We further improved our brand recognition, increased customer retention and order frequency, successfully introduced new products and achieved higher net selling prices. Furthermore, we strategically expanded our Luckin Partnership stores in mostly lower-tier cities in China. Additionally, our technology driven business model and favorable cost structure enabled us to enhance store level profitability and results of operations.”

Dr. Guo added, “Today, with a refreshed Board of Directors and leadership team, as well as the execution of our strategy to focus on our core coffee business and deliver sustainable growth and profitability, we are well-positioned to drive meaningful long-term value for our shareholders, and continue to provide outstanding products and services to our customers.”

Net revenues growth was primarily driven by the increased average selling price for the Company’s products, the increase in the number of monthly transacting customers and the number of products sold.

  • Revenues from product sales were RMB2,741.3 million (US$424.6 million) in the first half of 2021, representing an increase of 89.3% from RMB1,448.2 million in the first half of 2020.

    • Net revenues from other products were RMB176.5 million (US$27.3 million), representing 5.5% of total net revenues in the first half of 2021, compared to RMB129.4 million, or 8.4% of total net revenues, in the first half of 2020.
    • Net revenues from others were RMB142.6 million (US$22.1 million), representing 4.5% of total net revenues in the first half of 2021, compared to RMB70.7 million, or 4.6% of total net revenues, in the first half of 2020.
  • Revenues from partnership stores were RMB441.2 million (US$68.3 million) in the first half of 2021, representing 13.9% of total net revenues, which is an increase of 357.8% compared to RMB96.4 million, or 6.2% of total net revenues, in the first half of 2020.

The increase in operating expenses was in line with the Company’s business expansion. Meanwhile, operating expenses as a percentage of net revenues decreased to 112.9% in the first half of 2021 from 205.9% in the first half of 2020, mainly driven by increased economies of scale and the Company’s technology-driven operations.

  • Cost of materials were RMB1,299.7 million (US$201.3 million) in the first half of 2021, representing an increase of 54.1% from RMB843.1 million in the first half of 2020, in line with the increase in the number of products sold.
  • Store rental and other operating costs were RMB887.9 million (US$137.5 million) in the first half of 2021, representing a decrease of 0.3% from RMB890.7 million in the first half of 2020, mainly due to the decrease in store rental costs from the closure of certain stores, which was offset by increases in payroll cost and utilities as a result of the rise in sales volume.
  • Depreciation and amortization expenses were RMB229.0 million (US$35.5 million) in the first half of 2021, representing a decrease of 3.7% from RMB237.8 million in the first half of 2020, mainly due to a decline in the number of self-operated stores in the first half of 2021 compared the same period last year.
  • Sales and marketing expenses were RMB460.4 million (US$71.3 million) in the first half of 2021, representing a decrease of 11.0% from RMB517.5 million in the first half of 2020. Sales and marketing expense decreased primarily because advertising expenses and free product promotion expenses decreased, as the Company adopted more cost-effective approaches, such as cultivation of private domain traffic pools since April 2020, and ceased its free product promotion activities in May 2020. Delivery expenses increased substantially in the first half of 2021 as the number of delivery orders increased compared to the same period last year.
  • General and administrative expenses were RMB559.8 million (US$86.7 million) in the first half of 2021, representing an increase of 12.3% from RMB498.6 million in the first half of 2020. The increase in general and administrative expenses was mainly driven by the increased share-based compensation following the adoption of the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan as announced on January 25, 2021.
  • Store preopening and other expenses were RMB2.7 million (US$0.4 million) in the first half of 2021, compared to RMB7.2 million in the first half of 2020, mainly due to decreased rental costs before opening as a result of optimized site selection and improved efficiency for new store openings.
  • Losses and expenses related to Fabricated Transactions and Restructuring were RMB154.7 million (US$24.0 million) in the first half of 2021, representing a decrease of 15.6% from RMB183.2 million in the first half of 2020, which consist primarily of (i) legal fees under indemnification for security holders, underwriters of the Company’s initial public offering and follow-on offering, directors and officers; (ii) legal fees incurred to respond to a number of legal proceedings; (iii) professional fees related to the Internal Investigation; (iv) professional fees and expenses reimbursed for the JPLs and (v) other advisory service fees.

USE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

In evaluating the business, the company consider and use adjusted operating loss and adjusted net 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 present these non-GAAP financial measures because they are used by the company’s management to evaluate operating performance and formulate business plans. The company believe 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.

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 compensate 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 encourage investors and others to review the company’s financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.

The company define non-GAAP operating loss as operating loss excluding share-based compensation expenses and impairment loss of long-lived assets, non-GAAP net loss as net loss excluding share-based compensation expenses and impairment loss of long-lived assets, and non-GAAP net loss attributable to the company’s ordinary shareholders as net loss attributable to the company’s ordinary shareholders excluding share-based compensation expenses and impairment loss of long-lived assets.
