SHANGHAI, Aug. 16, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- JMU Limited (the
"Company" or "JMU") (NASDAQ:
JMU), a leading B2B online e-commerce
platform that provides integrated services to suppliers and
customers in the foodservice industry in China, today announced its financial results
for the three months ended June 30,
2017.
Disclaimer: When preparing the unaudited condensed
consolidated financial information for the three months ended
June 30, 2017, the Company revisited
the presentation of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2016, and concluded that certain revenue
recognized on a gross basis disclosed in the earning release dated
August 22, 2016 for the second
quarter of 2016 should have been presented on a net basis in
accordance with relevant US GAAP. Accordingly, the Company revised
revenue and cost of revenues for the three months ended
June 30, 2016 to reflect such change
of gross presentation to net presentation.
Second Quarter 2017 Highlights
- Revenues in the second quarter of 2017 were $20.6 million, an increase of 35.5% from
$15.2 million in the second quarter
of 2016.
- Gross profit was $0.1 million in
the second quarter of 2017, improving from a gross loss of
$45 thousand in the second quarter of
2016.
- B2B online platform recorded gross billing of RMB 2,355 million (US$347
million) in the second quarter of 2017, measured in terms of
gross merchandise value ("GMV"), increasing 47.4% from gross
billing of RMB 1,598 million
(US$240 million) in the second
quarter of 2016.
- Active customer accounts increased to 33,170 as of June 30, 2017, increasing 1.2% from 32,775 as of
June 30, 2016.
- Third-party sellers on the Company's JMU online marketplace increased to 16,170 as of
June 30, 2017, compared to 14,085 as
of June 30, 2016.
Ms. Xiaoxia Zhu, Co-chairperson
and Chief Executive Officer commented, "We are pleased with our
progress in the second quarter, our third consecutive quarter of
double-digit revenue growth and a return to positive gross profit
margin. We have been diligent in our efforts to actively expand our
supplier portfolio to provide more customer choice as well as
explore new profit drivers. We added over 300 hundred product
suppliers onto our platform in the second quarter. In addition to
adding traditional food raw material and seasoning suppliers, we
also broadened our product offering by adding select interior
design, kitchen equipment and pest control suppliers to provide our
customers a one-stop service to penetrate the local restaurant
market.
"We have also been actively seeking opportunities to broaden our
exposure to the B2C market. We recently entered into partnership
with Nippon ACCESS in Japan to
strengthen our international food materials and product offering.
Earlier this month, we signed a contract to oversee the store
leasing process and became the exclusive supply chain service
provider for a ten thousand square meter commercial space in
Shanghai. We are dedicated to
build meaningful partnerships and to further solidify our
advantages in the food service sector. Looking ahead to the second
half of 2017, we will continue our focus on organic growth as well
as turning profitable."
Recent Corporate Highlights
- On August 7, JMU entered into Strategic Partnership with Century
Link and TANSH to develop Project "Lane1192" in Century Link. Under
the cooperation, JMU will participate
in store leasing process and provide the integrated services of a
back-end restaurant ERP system and supply chain logistics.
- In July, JMU announced three-way
strategic cooperation with Nippon ACCESS and TANSH to develop
international trade, research and development of food materials and
food products, as well as overall supply chain cooperation.
Second Quarter 2017 Financial
Performance
Revenues were $20.6 million
for the second quarter of 2017, an increase of 35.5% from
$15.2 million in the second quarter
of 2016. The growth of revenue in the second quarter 2017 was
mainly due to the ongoing increase in sales from online direct
sales.
Cost of revenues was $20.4
million in second quarter 2017, an increase of 34.2% from
$15.2 million in the second quarter
of 2016, which was generally in line with revenue growth.
Gross profit for the second quarter of 2017 was
$134 thousand, as compared to gross
loss of $45 thousand in second
quarter 2016. The improvement was mainly attributable to
JMU's new pricing strategy and higher
discounts in purchasing price from suppliers due to sizable trading
volume.
Operating expenses were $5.7
million in the second quarter of 2017, an increase of 1.0%
from $5.6 million in the prior year
period. The increase in operating expenses was mainly due to
share-based compensation accrued in the second quarter of 2017
which did not occur in the same period last year.
Loss from operations in second quarter 2017 was
$5.5 million, a decrease of 2.2% from
$5.6 million in second quarter
2016.
Net loss attributable to the Company in the second
quarter of 2017 was $5.1 million,
consistent with the second quarter of 2016. Non-GAAP net loss
attributable to the Company, which excludes amortization of
acquired intangible assets, share-based compensation and related
provision for income tax benefits, was $3.1
million in the second quarter of 2017 compared to
$3.5 million in the second quarter of
2016. For the quarter ended June 30,
2017 and June 30, 2016, the
Company's weighted average number of ordinary shares used in
computing loss per ordinary share was 1,476,057,773 and
1,476,208,670, respectively.
As of June 30, 2017, the Company's
cash and cash equivalents was $1.1
million, a decrease of 57.5% as compared to $2.6 million as of December 31, 2016. Total shareholders' equity
remained stable at $245.0 million,
compared to $248.4 million at the end
of 2016.
Note 1: Non-GAAP measures
To supplement our consolidated financial statements presented in
accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles
("GAAP"), we use various non-GAAP financial measures that are
adjusted from results based on U.S. GAAP to exclude amortization of
acquired intangible assets, impairment of goodwill, share-based
compensation and related provision for income tax benefits.
Reconciliations of our non-GAAP financial measures to our U.S.
GAAP financial measures are shown in tables at the end of this
earnings release, which provide more details about the non-GAAP
financial measures.
Our non-GAAP financial information is provided as additional
information to help investors compare business trends among
different reporting periods on a consistent basis and to enhance
investors' overall understanding of the historical and current
financial performance of our operations and our prospects for the
future. Our non-GAAP financial information should be considered in
addition to results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, but
should not be considered a substitute for or superior to U.S. GAAP
financial results. In addition, our calculation of this non-GAAP
financial information may be different from the calculation used by
other companies, and therefore comparability may be limited.
Our non-GAAP information (including non-GAAP loss from
operations and net loss attributable to the Company) which is
adjusted from results based on U.S. GAAP to exclude amortization of
acquired intangible assets, impairment of goodwill, share-based
compensation and income tax benefits. A limitation of using these
non-GAAP financial measures is that amortization of acquired
intangible assets, impairment of goodwill, share-based compensation
and related provision for income tax benefits have been and may
continue to be for the foreseeable future significant recurring
expenses in our results of operations. We compensate for these
limitations by providing reconciliations of our non-GAAP financial
measures to our U.S. GAAP financial measures. Please see the
reconciliation tables at the end of this earnings release.
