BEIJING<\/span>, May 10, 2024 \/PRNewswire\/ — NaaS Technology Inc. (“NaaS” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: NaaS), the first U.S. listed EV charging service company in China<\/span>, today announced its unaudited financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024<\/span>.<\/p>\n

First Quarter 2024 Financial Highlights:<\/p>\n

Revenues increased by 166% year over year and reached RMB96.2 million<\/span> (US$13.3 million<\/span>) for the first quarter of 2024. Gross margin was 25.3% for the first quarter of 2024, compared with 16.9% for the same period of 2023. Gross profit grew 4.0 times year over year to RMB24.3 million<\/span> (US$3.4 million<\/span>) for the first quarter of 2024. <\/p>\n

First Quarter 2024 Operational Highlights:<\/p>\n

Charging volume transacted through NaaS’ network reached 1,216 GWh for the first quarter of 2024, representing an increase of 19% year over year. Gross transaction value transacted through NaaS’ network reached RMB1.2 billion<\/span> (US$160.1 million<\/span>) for the first quarter of 2024, representing an increase of 17% year over year. Number of orders transacted through NaaS’ network reached 50.3 million for the first quarter of 2024, representing an increase of 13% year over year. <\/p>\n

“We kicked off 2024 with robust financial and operational growth while strengthening our foundational capabilities in mobility connectivity services, significantly boosting our competitive edge,” said Ms. Yang Wang<\/span>, chief executive officer of NaaS. “We actively empower charging point operators within our mobility connectivity ecosystem, continually delivering innovative energy solutions. This strategic approach has driven revenue diversification and significantly strengthened our position in the broader energy market. Our commitment to seamlessly integrating digital technology across various sectors is paving the way for high-quality industry development and improving the overall charging experience for end-users.”<\/p>\n

Mr. Alex Wu<\/span>, president and chief financial officer of NaaS, added, “Leveraging our deep industry knowledge, we focused on high-quality revenue growth in the first quarter, considerably increasing our revenue and gross margins. Our strategic, disciplined financial management has also reinforced our financial stability and enhanced profitability across our business units. By continually optimizing efficiency and maintaining our growth trajectory, we are committed to delivering robust financial performances and ensuring long-term value creation for our stakeholders.”<\/p>\n

2024 First Quarter Business Updates and Financial Results:<\/p>\n

NTR Turns Positive and Further Increased GTR<\/p>\n

The Company continues to witness a positive trend in its Net Take Rate (NTR)[1]\u00a0and Gross Take Rate (GTR)[2]. In April 2024<\/span>, the NTR reached a historical high. This increase reflects the success of NaaS’ strategic initiatives to expand its network and strengthen its resources, contributing to higher profitability from its mobility connectivity services. The improvement of these metrics underscores NaaS’ ability to maintain operational excellence and adjust its promotional strategies to enhance customer loyalty and create a robust network effect.<\/p>\n

Strengthening Open-Source Commitment<\/p>\n

NaaS has recently joined the Open Invention Network (OIN), the largest patent non-aggression community dedicated to protecting open source. Its membership underscores NaaS’ commitment to leveraging open-source technology to advance its charging infrastructure networks. Joining OIN is a part of NaaS’ strategy to enhance its intellectual property and research and development capabilities. As of March 31, 2024<\/span>, NaaS had filed over 250 patent applications in more than ten countries and regions around the world, including the United States<\/span>, the United Kingdom<\/span>, Norway<\/span>, Japan<\/span>, Thailand<\/span>, Brazil<\/span> and Australia<\/span>, demonstrating its robust focus on innovation. NaaS’ patent strategy strengthens its technological prowess while fostering innovation and safeguarding its advancements in the new energy sector.<\/p>\n

Revenues<\/p>\n

Total revenues reached RMB96.2 million<\/span> (US$13.3 million<\/span>) for the first quarter of 2024, representing an increase of 166% year over year. The increase was mainly attributable to strong execution in the ramping up of charging services and stable delivery in the Company’s energy solution projects throughout the first quarter of 2024.<\/p>\n

Charging services revenues contributed RMB47.8 million<\/span> (US$6.6 million<\/span>) for the first quarter of 2024, with a growth rate of 99% year over year. The increase was primarily attributable to a reduced proportion of platform-based incentives relative to the commission fees we generated through our charging services. The Company offered platform-based incentives to end-users to boost the use of its network, and charging services revenues are recorded net of end-user incentives. Costs associated with end-user incentives and recorded as reductions to total revenues totaled RMB91.3 million<\/span> (US$12.6 million<\/span>) and RMB69.7 million<\/span> for the first quarter of 2024 and 2023, respectively.<\/p>\n

Energy solutions revenues for the first quarter of 2024 increased by 334% year over year to RMB47.2 million<\/span> (US$6.5 million<\/span>). The increase was primarily driven by revenues from the delivery of on-going energy solution projects, especially photovoltaic projects and engineering procurement construction projects, that provide renewable energy generation, energy management and energy storage solutions.<\/p>\n

New initiatives revenues remained relatively stable at RMB1.2 million<\/span> (US$0.2 million<\/span>) for the first quarter of 2024 as compared with the same period in 2023 as the Company continued to launch new initiatives to expand its market offerings.<\/p>\n

Cost of revenues, gross profit and gross margin<\/p>\n

Total cost of revenues increased 139% to RMB71.9 million<\/span> (US$10.0 million<\/span>) for the first quarter of 2024 from RMB30.0 million<\/span> for the first quarter of 2023. The change was largely in line with revenue growth.<\/p>\n

Total gross profit grew 4.0 times year over year from RMB6.1 million<\/span> for the first quarter of 2023 to RMB24.3 million<\/span> (US$3.4 million<\/span>) for the first quarter of 2024, benefiting from solid revenue growth and a year-over-year improvement in gross margin from 16.9% to 25.3%. Gross margin improvement was mainly attributable to an increased number of profitable orders in charging services and as a result of the Company’s growing know-how and capabilities in delivering and executing energy solution projects of different scales.<\/p>\n

Operating expenses<\/p>\n

Total operating expenses increased from RMB119.7 million<\/span> for the first quarter of 2023 to RMB215.7 million<\/span> (US$29.9 million<\/span>) for the first quarter of 2024. Operating expenses as a percentage of revenues decreased year over year from 331% to 224%, mainly due to the increase in total revenues and optimization of operation.<\/p>\n

Selling and marketing expenses increased 7.2% from RMB66.4 million<\/span> for the first quarter of 2023 to RMB71.2 million<\/span> (US$9.9 million<\/span>) for the first quarter of 2024. The increase was mainly attributable to an increase in the sales and marketing expenses for our energy solutions business, partially offset by a reduction in excess incentives to end-users in connection with our mobility connectivity services. Costs associated with excess incentives to end-users included in selling and marketing expenses were RMB26.6 million<\/span> (US$3.7 million<\/span>) for the first quarter of 2024, accounting for 0.6 times charging services revenues, compared with RMB41.7 million<\/span> and 1.7 times, respectively, for the same period of 2023. The reduction in costs associated with excess incentives to end-users was attributable to a reduced proportion of platform-based incentives relative to the commission fees we generated through our charging services.<\/p>\n

Administrative expenses increased from RMB45.5 million<\/span> for the first quarter of 2023 to RMB123.0 million<\/span> (US$17.0 million<\/span>) for the first quarter of 2024. Setting aside equity-based compensation, administrative expenses increased from RMB31.8 million<\/span> for the first quarter of 2023 to RMB62.8 million<\/span> (US$8.7 million<\/span>) for the first quarter of 2024, primarily due to higher professional fees and office expenses.<\/p>\n

Research and development expenses increased from RMB7.8 million<\/span> for the first quarter of 2023 to RMB21.5 million<\/span> (US$3.0 million<\/span>) for the first quarter of 2024. The increase in research and development expenses was primarily due to the Company’s continued dedication of resources to innovate and improve the Company’s business.<\/p>\n

Finance costs<\/p>\n

Finance costs increased from RMB7.1 million<\/span> for the first quarter of 2023 to RMB17.7 million<\/span> (US$2.5 million<\/span>) for the first quarter of 2024 because the Company utilized more borrowings in the first quarter of 2024.<\/p>\n

Income tax expenses<\/p>\n

Income tax expenses were RMB2.7 million<\/span> (US$0.4 million<\/span>) in the first quarter of 2024, compared with income tax expenses of RMB3.1 million<\/span> for the same period of 2023.<\/p>\n

Net loss and non-IFRS net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders; net margin and non-IFRS net margin<\/p>\n

Net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders was RMB227.4 million<\/span> (US$31.5 million<\/span>) for the first quarter of 2024, compared with a net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of RMB109.7 million<\/span> for the same period in 2023.\u00a0Non-IFRS net loss[3] attributable to ordinary shareholders was RMB126.4 million<\/span> (US$17.5 million<\/span>) for the first quarter of 2024, compared with non-IFRS net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of RMB102.3 million<\/span> for the same period in 2023. Net margin increased from negative 303% for the first quarter of 2023 to negative 236% for the first quarter of 2024 and non-IFRS net margin increased from negative 283% for the first quarter of 2023 to negative 131% for the first quarter of 2024. Please refer to the section titled “Unaudited reconciliations of IFRS and non-IFRS measures” for details.<\/p>\n

Recent Development<\/p>\n

In May 2024<\/span>, we amended and restated our previously adopted Second Amended and Restated New 2022 Share Incentive Plan to expand the number of Class\u00a0A ordinary shares available for grant of awards. Upon the amendment, the maximum total number of Class\u00a0A ordinary shares of the Company underlying all awards, whether granted or available to be granted, under the plan became 644,746,682 (from 490,563,333 immediately prior to the amendment) and will be increased on the first day of each fiscal year from January\u00a01, 2025 by an amount equal to 1% of the total number of shares issued and outstanding on the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal year, unless otherwise determined by the board of directors of the Company. No other substantive amendment to the previous Second Amended and Restated New 2022 Share Incentive Plan was made.<\/p>\n

\n

[1] \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 NTR measures NaaS’ return from transactions arising from its mobility connectivity services after adjusting for incentives which are paid to end-users through NaaS’ partnered platform in the form of discounts and promotions to boost the use of its network. NTR is calculated by taking NaaS’ gross receipts from transactions, deducting transaction outgoings and incentives, and adding income from membership programs. The result is then expressed as a percentage of the total transaction value.<\/span><\/p>\n

[2] \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 GTR is calculated as the percentage of NaaS’ commission income derived from the gross transaction value at charging stations, indicating the Company’s share of charging stations’ gross income.<\/span><\/p>\n

[3] \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Non-IFRS net loss was arrived at after excluding share-based compensation expenses, fair value changes of convertible instruments, and fair value changes of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. Non-IFRS net margin was calculated by dividing non-IFRS net loss by total revenue. Please refer to the section titled “Unaudited reconciliations of IFRS and non-IFRS financial measures” for details.<\/span><\/p>\n

Mr. Alex Wu<\/span>, president and chief financial officer of NaaS, added, “Leveraging our deep industry knowledge, we focused on high-quality revenue growth in the first quarter, considerably increasing our revenue and gross margins. Our strategic, disciplined financial management has also reinforced our financial stability and enhanced profitability across our business units. By continually optimizing efficiency and maintaining our growth trajectory, we are committed to delivering robust financial performances and ensuring long-term value creation for our stakeholders.”<\/p>\n

2024 First Quarter Business Updates and Financial Results:<\/p>\n

NTR Turns Positive and Further Increased GTR<\/p>\n

The Company continues to witness a positive trend in its Net Take Rate (NTR)[1]\u00a0and Gross Take Rate (GTR)[2]. In April 2024<\/span>, the NTR reached a historical high. This increase reflects the success of NaaS’ strategic initiatives to expand its network and strengthen its resources, contributing to higher profitability from its mobility connectivity services. The improvement of these metrics underscores NaaS’ ability to maintain operational excellence and adjust its promotional strategies to enhance customer loyalty and create a robust network effect.<\/p>\n

Strengthening Open-Source Commitment<\/p>\n

NaaS has recently joined the Open Invention Network (OIN), the largest patent non-aggression community dedicated to protecting open source. Its membership underscores NaaS’ commitment to leveraging open-source technology to advance its charging infrastructure networks. Joining OIN is a part of NaaS’ strategy to enhance its intellectual property and research and development capabilities. As of March 31, 2024<\/span>, NaaS had filed over 250 patent applications in more than ten countries and regions around the world, including the United States<\/span>, the United Kingdom<\/span>, Norway<\/span>, Japan<\/span>, Thailand<\/span>, Brazil<\/span> and Australia<\/span>, demonstrating its robust focus on innovation. NaaS’ patent strategy strengthens its technological prowess while fostering innovation and safeguarding its advancements in the new energy sector.<\/p>\n

Revenues<\/p>\n

Total revenues reached RMB96.2 million<\/span> (US$13.3 million<\/span>) for the first quarter of 2024, representing an increase of 166% year over year. The increase was mainly attributable to strong execution in the ramping up of charging services and stable delivery in the Company’s energy solution projects throughout the first quarter of 2024.<\/p>\n

Charging services revenues contributed RMB47.8 million<\/span> (US$6.6 million<\/span>) for the first quarter of 2024, with a growth rate of 99% year over year. The increase was primarily attributable to a reduced proportion of platform-based incentives relative to the commission fees we generated through our charging services. The Company offered platform-based incentives to end-users to boost the use of its network, and charging services revenues are recorded net of end-user incentives. Costs associated with end-user incentives and recorded as reductions to total revenues totaled RMB91.3 million<\/span> (US$12.6 million<\/span>) and RMB69.7 million<\/span> for the first quarter of 2024 and 2023, respectively.<\/p>\n

Energy solutions revenues for the first quarter of 2024 increased by 334% year over year to RMB47.2 million<\/span> (US$6.5 million<\/span>). The increase was primarily driven by revenues from the delivery of on-going energy solution projects, especially photovoltaic projects and engineering procurement construction projects, that provide renewable energy generation, energy management and energy storage solutions.<\/p>\n

New initiatives revenues remained relatively stable at RMB1.2 million<\/span> (US$0.2 million<\/span>) for the first quarter of 2024 as compared with the same period in 2023 as the Company continued to launch new initiatives to expand its market offerings.<\/p>\n

Cost of revenues, gross profit and gross margin<\/p>\n

Total cost of revenues increased 139% to RMB71.9 million<\/span> (US$10.0 million<\/span>) for the first quarter of 2024 from RMB30.0 million<\/span> for the first quarter of 2023. The change was largely in line with revenue growth.<\/p>\n

Total gross profit grew 4.0 times year over year from RMB6.1 million<\/span> for the first quarter of 2023 to RMB24.3 million<\/span> (US$3.4 million<\/span>) for the first quarter of 2024, benefiting from solid revenue growth and a year-over-year improvement in gross margin from 16.9% to 25.3%. Gross margin improvement was mainly attributable to an increased number of profitable orders in charging services and as a result of the Company’s growing know-how and capabilities in delivering and executing energy solution projects of different scales.<\/p>\n

Operating expenses<\/p>\n

Total operating expenses increased from RMB119.7 million<\/span> for the first quarter of 2023 to RMB215.7 million<\/span> (US$29.9 million<\/span>) for the first quarter of 2024. Operating expenses as a percentage of revenues decreased year over year from 331% to 224%, mainly due to the increase in total revenues and optimization of operation.<\/p>\n

Selling and marketing expenses increased 7.2% from RMB66.4 million<\/span> for the first quarter of 2023 to RMB71.2 million<\/span> (US$9.9 million<\/span>) for the first quarter of 2024. The increase was mainly attributable to an increase in the sales and marketing expenses for our energy solutions business, partially offset by a reduction in excess incentives to end-users in connection with our mobility connectivity services. Costs associated with excess incentives to end-users included in selling and marketing expenses were RMB26.6 million<\/span> (US$3.7 million<\/span>) for the first quarter of 2024, accounting for 0.6 times charging services revenues, compared with RMB41.7 million<\/span> and 1.7 times, respectively, for the same period of 2023. The reduction in costs associated with excess incentives to end-users was attributable to a reduced proportion of platform-based incentives relative to the commission fees we generated through our charging services.<\/p>\n

Administrative expenses increased from RMB45.5 million<\/span> for the first quarter of 2023 to RMB123.0 million<\/span> (US$17.0 million<\/span>) for the first quarter of 2024. Setting aside equity-based compensation, administrative expenses increased from RMB31.8 million<\/span> for the first quarter of 2023 to RMB62.8 million<\/span> (US$8.7 million<\/span>) for the first quarter of 2024, primarily due to higher professional fees and office expenses.<\/p>\n

Research and development expenses increased from RMB7.8 million<\/span> for the first quarter of 2023 to RMB21.5 million<\/span> (US$3.0 million<\/span>) for the first quarter of 2024. The increase in research and development expenses was primarily due to the Company’s continued dedication of resources to innovate and improve the Company’s business.<\/p>\n

Finance costs<\/p>\n

Finance costs increased from RMB7.1 million<\/span> for the first quarter of 2023 to RMB17.7 million<\/span> (US$2.5 million<\/span>) for the first quarter of 2024 because the Company utilized more borrowings in the first quarter of 2024.<\/p>\n

Income tax expenses<\/p>\n

Income tax expenses were RMB2.7 million<\/span> (US$0.4 million<\/span>) in the first quarter of 2024, compared with income tax expenses of RMB3.1 million<\/span> for the same period of 2023.<\/p>\n

Net loss and non-IFRS net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders; net margin and non-IFRS net margin<\/p>\n

Net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders was RMB227.4 million<\/span> (US$31.5 million<\/span>) for the first quarter of 2024, compared with a net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of RMB109.7 million<\/span> for the same period in 2023.\u00a0Non-IFRS net loss[3] attributable to ordinary shareholders was RMB126.4 million<\/span> (US$17.5 million<\/span>) for the first quarter of 2024, compared with non-IFRS net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of RMB102.3 million<\/span> for the same period in 2023. Net margin increased from negative 303% for the first quarter of 2023 to negative 236% for the first quarter of 2024 and non-IFRS net margin increased from negative 283% for the first quarter of 2023 to negative 131% for the first quarter of 2024. Please refer to the section titled “Unaudited reconciliations of IFRS and non-IFRS measures” for details.<\/p>\n

Recent Development<\/p>\n

In May 2024<\/span>, we amended and restated our previously adopted Second Amended and Restated New 2022 Share Incentive Plan to expand the number of Class\u00a0A ordinary shares available for grant of awards. Upon the amendment, the maximum total number of Class\u00a0A ordinary shares of the Company underlying all awards, whether granted or available to be granted, under the plan became 644,746,682 (from 490,563,333 immediately prior to the amendment) and will be increased on the first day of each fiscal year from January\u00a01, 2025 by an amount equal to 1% of the total number of shares issued and outstanding on the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal year, unless otherwise determined by the board of directors of the Company. No other substantive amendment to the previous Second Amended and Restated New 2022 Share Incentive Plan was made.<\/p>\n

[1] \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 NTR measures NaaS’ return from transactions arising from its mobility connectivity services after adjusting for incentives which are paid to end-users through NaaS’ partnered platform in the form of discounts and promotions to boost the use of its network. NTR is calculated by taking NaaS’ gross receipts from transactions, deducting transaction outgoings and incentives, and adding income from membership programs. The result is then expressed as a percentage of the total transaction value.<\/span><\/p>\n

[2] \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 GTR is calculated as the percentage of NaaS’ commission income derived from the gross transaction value at charging stations, indicating the Company’s share of charging stations’ gross income.<\/span><\/p>\n

[3] \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Non-IFRS net loss was arrived at after excluding share-based compensation expenses, fair value changes of convertible instruments, and fair value changes of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. Non-IFRS net margin was calculated by dividing non-IFRS net loss by total revenue. Please refer to the section titled “Unaudited reconciliations of IFRS and non-IFRS financial measures” for details.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
