Full Year 2022 Financial and Operational Highlights

 

   

Total revenues were RMB1,980.5 million (US$287.1 million), compared with RMB3,921.7 million in the full year of 2021. Car trading transactions revenues were RMB1,596.3 million (US$231.4 million), or 80.6% of total revenues in the full year of 2022, compared with RMB2,227.2 million in the full year of 2021.

 

   

“Cango Haoche” platform had engaged 10,112 dealers in China’s 31 provinces and 305 cities as of December 31, 2022. During the full year of 2022, total sales were 16,490 cars, including 8,794 new energy vehicles (NEVs), resulting in an NEV penetration rate exceeding 50%.

 

   

Since the “Cango Haoche” APP was launched at the end of the second quarter of 2022, it had attracted a total of over 660,000 page views and more than 57,000 unique visitors as of the end of December, 2022.

Mr. Jiayuan Lin, Chief Executive Officer of Cango, commented, “Despite facing numerous headwinds throughout the year, Cango successfully carried out a significant transformation during 2022. Our automotive transaction service platform covering both new and used car markets has taken shape, and excellent market feedback and increasing market demand have already validated its effectiveness.

“Our platform’s user base continued to grow with increasing engagement. As of December 31, 2022, ‘Cango Haoche,’ our new car trading platform, engaged 10,112 dealers, up 58% year-over-year. For full-year 2022, accumulated page views and unique visitors on our ‘Cango Haoche’ APP exceeded 660,000 and 57,000, respectively. In addition, we further extended our cooperation with OEMs and car suppliers in the fourth quarter, solidifying our strong position with abundant vehicle sources. On the used car front, by leveraging our advantages such as abundant used car sources and one-on-one matching services, we cultivated dealers’ platform usage habits and improved their platform stickiness. As of the end of 2022, ‘Cango U-Car,’ our used car trading platform, had 4,492 registered dealers with increasing stickiness.

“Although some uncertainty lingers on the near-term horizon, as we move through 2023, we will continue to accelerate our digitalization process and further standardize our products and services across the entire transaction chain. Leveraging Cango’s valuable market know-how and solid customer base accumulated over the past ten years, we will forge ahead alongside our dealer partners for the next decade and beyond, propelling their footsteps toward success,” concluded Mr. Lin.

Mr. Yongyi Zhang, Chief Financial Officer of Cango, stated, “Our fourth quarter performance once again illustrated the strength and resilience of our strategy and business model. We are confident that our refined operational efficiency and healthy balance sheet have positioned us to fully embrace new opportunities emerging from the automotive industry’s broad recovery. Looking ahead, we will continue to invest wisely to advance our capabilities and drive long-term value for our shareholders.”

Definition of Overdue Ratios

The Company defines “M1+ overdue ratio” as (i) exposure at risk relating to financing transactions for which any installment payment is 30 to 179 calendar days past due as of a specified date, divided by (ii) exposure at risk relating to all financing transactions which remain outstanding as of such date, excluding amounts of outstanding principal that are 180 calendar days or more past due.

The Company defines “M3+ overdue ratio” as (i) exposure at risk relating to financing transactions for which any installment payment is 90 to 179 calendar days past due as of a specified date, divided by (ii) exposure at risk relating to all financing transactions which remain outstanding as of such date, excluding amounts of outstanding principal that are 180 calendar days or more past due.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measure

In evaluating the business, the Company considers and uses Non-GAAP adjusted net income (loss), a non-GAAP measure, as a supplemental measure to review and assess its operating performance. The presentation of the non-GAAP financial measure 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 Non-GAAP adjusted net income (loss) as net income (loss) excluding share-based compensation expenses. The Company presents the non-GAAP financial measure because it is used by the management to evaluate the operating performance and formulate business plans. Non-GAAP adjusted net income (loss) enables the management to assess the Company’s operating results without considering the impact of share-based compensation expenses, which are non-cash charges. The Company also believes that the use of the non-GAAP measure facilitates investors’ assessment of its operating performance.

Non-GAAP adjusted net income (loss) is not defined under U.S. GAAP and is not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. This non-GAAP financial measure has limitations as analytical tools. One of the key limitations of using Non-GAAP adjusted net income (loss) is that it does not reflect all items of expense that affect the Company’s operations. Share-based compensation expenses have been and may continue to be incurred in the business and are not reflected in the presentation of Non-GAAP adjusted net income (loss). Further, the non-GAAP measure 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 measure 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 Cango’s non-GAAP financial measure to the most comparable U.S. GAAP measure are included at the end of this press release.
