Mr. Andy Liu, Founder, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company commented, “In this quarter, our business continued to evolve and we are establishing more billing models to remain flexible under the current economic environment. In this quarter, we have successfully signed a number of new representative contracts, including a SaaS-based contract with a private school with expected annual revenue of approximately RMB10 million. We expect the SaaS billing model to pick up gradually as the market becomes more familiar with it. Despite the lower initial revenue recognition associated with the SaaS model, we see the strong benefits of its recurring nature as our business continues to grow.”

2 Adjusted net income (loss) represents net income (loss) excluding share-based compensation expenses.
Mr. Michael Du, Director and Chief Financial Officer of the Company commented, “In this quarter, we managed to deliver a higher value of projects compared with the same quarter last year. The total revenue dropped nevertheless due to the decrease in our revenue from other educational services. There are two positive trends worth noting: (i) in the third quarter of 2023, we managed to sign contracts of higher total value compared to the second quarter of 2023, excluding the RMB116 million long-term Minhang project, and (ii) an increasing number of projects are now being signed under the SaaS billing model. Contracts under this model generate revenue over a longer period of time and are more likely to recur, helping us accumulating a healthier and more recurrent project portfolio. At the same time, we continued to pursue improvements in operational efficiency and reduce operational expenses. We are committed to building a business that enhances teachers’ teaching and students’ learning experience through our deep insights into education and technology.”
Third Quarter 2023 Unaudited Financial Results
Net Revenues
Net revenues for the third quarter of 2023 were RMB45.1 million (US$6.2 million), representing a year-over-year decrease of 63.8% from RMB124.6 million in the third quarter of 2022. This was mainly due to (i) the reduction in net revenues from other educational services as we focus our resources on our core teaching and learning SaaS business, and (ii) a higher proportion of the new teaching and learning SaaS contracts we signed in the third quarter of 2023 are under the SaaS billing model, which recognizes revenue over a longer period and at a slower pace. This along with the large amount of revenue recognized in association with the major delivery for Minhang project in the second quarter of 2023, contributed to the lower net revenues in the third quarter compared to the second quarter of 2023.
Cost of Revenues
Cost of revenues for the third quarter of 2023 was RMB20.7 million (US$2.8 million), representing a year-over-year decrease of 34.7% from RMB31.7 million in the third quarter of 2022, which was mainly due to cost reduction in third-party service providers of other educational services.
Gross Profit and Gross Margin
Gross profit for the third quarter of 2023 was RMB24.4 million (US$3.3 million), representing a year-over-year decrease of 73.7% from RMB92.9 million in the third quarter of 2022.
Gross margin for the third quarter of 2023 was 54.1%, compared with 74.5% in the third quarter of 2022.

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 nine months ended September 30, 2023 are solely for the convenience of the readers and were calculated at the rate of US$1.00=RMB7.2960 representing the noon buying rate set forth in the H.10 statistical release of the U.S. Federal Reserve Board on September 30, 2023. No representation is made that the RMB amounts could have been, or could be, converted, realized or settled into US$ at that rate on September 30, 2023, or at any other rate.
