SHANGHAI<\/span><\/span>, May 13, 2024<\/span><\/span> \/PRNewswire\/ — Dingdong (Cayman) Limited (“Dingdong” or the “Company”) (NYSE: DDL), a leading fresh grocery e-commerce company in China<\/span>, with advanced supply chain capabilities, today announced its unaudited financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2024<\/span>.<\/p>\n

First Quarter 2024 Highlights:\u00a0<\/p>\n

GMV\u00a0for the first quarter of 2024 increased by 1.4% year over year to RMB5,525.1 million<\/span> (US$765.2 million<\/span>) from RMB5,451.2 million<\/span> in the same quarter of 2023, while our same-store GMV grew by 4.4% year over year. In March of 2024, GMV reached RMB1,971.1 million<\/span> (US$273.0 million<\/span>), an increase of 6.5% year over year. Total number of orders\u00a0increased by 3.5% year over year in the first quarter of 2024. Non-GAAP net income\u00a0for the first quarter of 2024 increased by 583.2% year over year to RMB41.5 million<\/span> (US$5.7 million<\/span>), the sixth consecutive quarter of non-GAAP profitability, compared with non-GAAP net income of RMB6.1 million<\/span> in the same quarter of 2023. Net income for the first quarter of 2024 was RMB12.3 million<\/span> (US$1.7 million<\/span>), compared with net loss of RMB52.4 million<\/span> in the same quarter of 2023. Both non-GAAP and GAAP net income this quarter made record highs for the past 12 months. Net cash provided by operating activities\u00a0for the first quarter of 2024 was RMB94.8 million<\/span> (US$ 13.1 million<\/span>), the third<\/span> consecutive quarter of net operating cash inflow. <\/p>\n

Mr.\u00a0Changlin Liang, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Dingdong, stated, “In the first quarter of 2024, we achieved non-GAAP profitability for the sixth consecutive quarter. Notably, we recorded a substantial increase in our net profit margin and revenue growth in March 2024<\/span>. This success can be largely attributed to Dingdong’s world’s\u00a0leading fresh grocery supply chain capabilities. These capabilities will not only contribute to Dingdong’s continued expansion and profitability within the domestic market but also position the company to make a substantial impact on the global market, generating greater and lasting value. Looking ahead to the remaining months of 2024, and based on the growth we have already observed, we forecast a tangible, sustained improvement in our performance. We think that the strategic advantages of our supply chain capabilities will only become more apparent, and will play a crucial role in boosting our profits and scale. With this in mind, we have raised our expectations for both net profit and scale, and are anticipating considerable year-over-year growth for the second quarter and this year. We are looking to achieve both non-GAAP and GAAP profits in the second quarter and for the entire year of 2024.”<\/p>\n

Mr. Song Wang<\/span>, Chief Financial Officer of Dingdong, stated, “In the first quarter of 2024, our GMV reached 5.53 billion RMB<\/span>, marking a year-over-year increase of 1.4%. After accounting for the impact of store closures in Sichuan<\/span>, Chongqing<\/span>, Guangzhou<\/span> and Shenzhen<\/span>, we saw a 4.4% year-over-year increase in existing stores. The company’s non-GAAP net profit margin rose to 0.8%, with a year-over-year increase of 0.7 percentage points, while its non-GAAP net profit surged 6.8 times year-over-year. Dingdong also accomplished GAAP profitability in the same period, posting a net profit margin of 0.2%, up by 1.3 percentage points year-over-year, with a net profit growth of 64.7 million RMB<\/span>. Besides that, the company’s operating cash flow net inflow was 95 million RMB<\/span>, marking its third consecutive quarter of net operating cash inflow. Dingdong’s cash and cash equivalent, restricted cash<\/span> and short-term investments after deducting the balance of short-term borrowings was 2.09 billion RMB<\/span>, a net increase for the third consecutive quarter. Our financial performance is improving, with simultaneous growth in revenue and profit, and we have sufficient financial reserves. With all of this in mind, we are confident that we will achieve this year’s growth and profit targets.”<\/p>\n

First Quarter 2024 Financial Results <\/p>\n

Total revenues were RMB5,024<\/span>.0\u00a0million (US$695.8 million<\/span>) compared with total revenues of RMB4,997<\/span>.5\u00a0million in the same quarter of 2023, primarily due to the rise of number of orders, further growth in Shanghai<\/span>, Jiangsu<\/span> and Zhejiang<\/span> market, and new opened frontline fulfillment stations with density and market penetration improved in East China. The increase was offset by strategic suspension of operations in a number of cities and stations, more outbound residents from Jiangsu<\/span>, Zhejiang<\/span>, and Shanghai<\/span> during this Chinese New Year, and the impact of the ongoing decline in food CPI prices in the first quarter of 2024.<\/p>\n

Product Revenues were RMB4,944.3 million<\/span> (US$684.8 million<\/span>) compared with product revenues of RMB4,937.8 million<\/span> in the same quarter of 2023. Service Revenues were RMB79.8 million<\/span> (US$11.0 million<\/span>) compared with service revenues of\u00a0RMB59.7\u00a0million in the same quarter of 2023, primarily driven by the increase of customers subscribing to Dingdong’s membership program, and more delivery fees collected with more orders in this quarter. <\/p>\n

Total operating costs and expenses were\u00a0RMB5,045.0\u00a0million (US$698<\/span>.7\u00a0million) compared with RMB5,043<\/span>.3\u00a0million in the same quarter of 2023, with a detailed breakdown as below: \u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Cost of goods sold\u00a0was RMB3,488.7 million<\/span> (US$483.2 million<\/span>), an increase of 0.8% from RMB3,462.3 million<\/span> in the same quarter of 2023.

Fulfillment expenses as a percentage of total revenues decreased to 22.8% from 23.9% in the same quarter of 2023. This was mainly due to the increased order volume that boosted operational efficiency. In addition, we optimized the layout of the regional processing centers in the second half of 2023, which will continue to improve their operation efficiency this year. Sales and marketing expenses were RMB111.0 million<\/span> (US$15.4 million<\/span>), an increase of 23.7% from RMB89.8 million<\/span> in the same quarter of 2023. Sales and marketing expenses as a percentage of total revenues increased slightly to 2.2% from 2.1% in the fourth quarter of 2023. General and administrative expenses were RMB105.0 million<\/span> (US$14.5 million<\/span>), an increase of 20.9% from RMB86.8 million<\/span> in the same quarter of 2023, mainly due to the increase of professional service fees. Product development expenses were RMB193.3 million<\/span> (US$26.8 million<\/span>), a decrease of 8.2% from RMB210.6 million<\/span> in the same quarter of 2023, primarily due to lower share-based compensation expenses. While advocating for energy and resource saving, we will continue to invest in our product development capabilities, agricultural technology, data algorithms, and other technology infrastructure, to further enhance our competitiveness. <\/p>\n

Loss from operations\u00a0was RMB11<\/span>.1\u00a0million (US$1<\/span>.5\u00a0million), compared with operating loss\u00a0of RMB50<\/span>.1\u00a0million in the same quarter of 2023.<\/p>\n

Basic and diluted net income per share were RMB0.03<\/span> (US$0.00)<\/span>, compared with net loss\u00a0per share of RMB0<\/span>.17\u00a0in the same quarter of 2023. Non-GAAP net income per share, basic and diluted, was RMB0.12<\/span> (US$0.00)<\/span>, compared with RMB0<\/span>.01\u00a0in the same quarter of 2023.<\/p>\n

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures <\/p>\n

The Company uses non-GAAP measures, such as non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income margin, non-GAAP\u00a0net income attributable to ordinary shareholders and non-GAAP net income per share, basic and diluted, in evaluating its operating results and for financial and operational decision-making purposes. The Company believes that the non-GAAP financial measures help identify underlying trends in its business by excluding the impact of share-based compensation expenses, which are non-cash charges and do not correlate to any operating activity trends. The Company believes that the non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information about the Company’s results of operations, enhance the overall understanding of the Company’s past performance and future prospects and allow for greater visibility with respect to key metrics used by the Company’s management in its financial and operational decision-making.<\/p>\n

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, and when assessing the Company’s operating performance, cash flows or liquidity, investors should not consider them in isolation, or as a substitute for net loss, cash flows provided by operating activities or other consolidated statements of operations and cash flows data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company’s definition of non-GAAP financial measures may differ from those of industry peers and may not be comparable with their non-GAAP financial measures.<\/p>\n

The Company mitigates these limitations by reconciling the non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable U.S. GAAP performance measures, all of which should be considered when evaluating the Company’s performance.<\/p>\n

For more information on the non-GAAP financial measures, please see the table captioned “Unaudited Reconciliation of GAAP and Non-GAAP Results” set forth at the end of this announcement.<\/p>\n

SHANGHAI<\/span><\/span>, May 13, 2024<\/span><\/span> \/PRNewswire\/ — Dingdong (Cayman) Limited (“Dingdong” or the “Company”) (NYSE: DDL), a leading fresh grocery e-commerce company in China<\/span>, with advanced supply chain capabilities, today announced its unaudited financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2024<\/span>.<\/p>\n

First Quarter 2024 Highlights:\u00a0<\/p>\n

GMV\u00a0for the first quarter of 2024 increased by 1.4% year over year to RMB5,525.1 million<\/span> (US$765.2 million<\/span>) from RMB5,451.2 million<\/span> in the same quarter of 2023, while our same-store GMV grew by 4.4% year over year. In March of 2024, GMV reached RMB1,971.1 million<\/span> (US$273.0 million<\/span>), an increase of 6.5% year over year. Total number of orders\u00a0increased by 3.5% year over year in the first quarter of 2024. Non-GAAP net income\u00a0for the first quarter of 2024 increased by 583.2% year over year to RMB41.5 million<\/span> (US$5.7 million<\/span>), the sixth consecutive quarter of non-GAAP profitability, compared with non-GAAP net income of RMB6.1 million<\/span> in the same quarter of 2023. Net income for the first quarter of 2024 was RMB12.3 million<\/span> (US$1.7 million<\/span>), compared with net loss of RMB52.4 million<\/span> in the same quarter of 2023. Both non-GAAP and GAAP net income this quarter made record highs for the past 12 months. Net cash provided by operating activities\u00a0for the first quarter of 2024 was RMB94.8 million<\/span> (US$ 13.1 million<\/span>), the third<\/span> consecutive quarter of net operating cash inflow. <\/p>\n

Mr.\u00a0Changlin Liang, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Dingdong, stated, “In the first quarter of 2024, we achieved non-GAAP profitability for the sixth consecutive quarter. Notably, we recorded a substantial increase in our net profit margin and revenue growth in March 2024<\/span>. This success can be largely attributed to Dingdong’s world’s\u00a0leading fresh grocery supply chain capabilities. These capabilities will not only contribute to Dingdong’s continued expansion and profitability within the domestic market but also position the company to make a substantial impact on the global market, generating greater and lasting value. Looking ahead to the remaining months of 2024, and based on the growth we have already observed, we forecast a tangible, sustained improvement in our performance. We think that the strategic advantages of our supply chain capabilities will only become more apparent, and will play a crucial role in boosting our profits and scale. With this in mind, we have raised our expectations for both net profit and scale, and are anticipating considerable year-over-year growth for the second quarter and this year. We are looking to achieve both non-GAAP and GAAP profits in the second quarter and for the entire year of 2024.”<\/p>\n

Mr. Song Wang<\/span>, Chief Financial Officer of Dingdong, stated, “In the first quarter of 2024, our GMV reached 5.53 billion RMB<\/span>, marking a year-over-year increase of 1.4%. After accounting for the impact of store closures in Sichuan<\/span>, Chongqing<\/span>, Guangzhou<\/span> and Shenzhen<\/span>, we saw a 4.4% year-over-year increase in existing stores. The company’s non-GAAP net profit margin rose to 0.8%, with a year-over-year increase of 0.7 percentage points, while its non-GAAP net profit surged 6.8 times year-over-year. Dingdong also accomplished GAAP profitability in the same period, posting a net profit margin of 0.2%, up by 1.3 percentage points year-over-year, with a net profit growth of 64.7 million RMB<\/span>. Besides that, the company’s operating cash flow net inflow was 95 million RMB<\/span>, marking its third consecutive quarter of net operating cash inflow. Dingdong’s cash and cash equivalent, restricted cash<\/span> and short-term investments after deducting the balance of short-term borrowings was 2.09 billion RMB<\/span>, a net increase for the third consecutive quarter. Our financial performance is improving, with simultaneous growth in revenue and profit, and we have sufficient financial reserves. With all of this in mind, we are confident that we will achieve this year’s growth and profit targets.”<\/p>\n

First Quarter 2024 Financial Results <\/p>\n

Total revenues were RMB5,024<\/span>.0\u00a0million (US$695.8 million<\/span>) compared with total revenues of RMB4,997<\/span>.5\u00a0million in the same quarter of 2023, primarily due to the rise of number of orders, further growth in Shanghai<\/span>, Jiangsu<\/span> and Zhejiang<\/span> market, and new opened frontline fulfillment stations with density and market penetration improved in East China. The increase was offset by strategic suspension of operations in a number of cities and stations, more outbound residents from Jiangsu<\/span>, Zhejiang<\/span>, and Shanghai<\/span> during this Chinese New Year, and the impact of the ongoing decline in food CPI prices in the first quarter of 2024.<\/p>\n

Product Revenues were RMB4,944.3 million<\/span> (US$684.8 million<\/span>) compared with product revenues of RMB4,937.8 million<\/span> in the same quarter of 2023. Service Revenues were RMB79.8 million<\/span> (US$11.0 million<\/span>) compared with service revenues of\u00a0RMB59.7\u00a0million in the same quarter of 2023, primarily driven by the increase of customers subscribing to Dingdong’s membership program, and more delivery fees collected with more orders in this quarter. <\/p>\n

Total operating costs and expenses were\u00a0RMB5,045.0\u00a0million (US$698<\/span>.7\u00a0million) compared with RMB5,043<\/span>.3\u00a0million in the same quarter of 2023, with a detailed breakdown as below: \u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Cost of goods sold\u00a0was RMB3,488.7 million<\/span> (US$483.2 million<\/span>), an increase of 0.8% from RMB3,462.3 million<\/span> in the same quarter of 2023. Cost of goods sold as a percentage of revenues increased slightly to 69.4% from 69.3% in the same quarter of 2023. Gross margin remained stable at 30.6% compared with the fourth quarter of 2023. Fulfillment expenses were RMB1,147.0 million<\/span> (US$158.9 million<\/span>), a decrease of 3.9% from RMB1,193.8 million<\/span> in the same quarter of 2023. Fulfillment expenses as a percentage of total revenues decreased to 22.8% from 23.9% in the same quarter of 2023. This was mainly due to the increased order volume that boosted operational efficiency.

Product development expenses were RMB193.3 million<\/span> (US$26.8 million<\/span>), a decrease of 8.2% from RMB210.6 million<\/span> in the same quarter of 2023, primarily due to lower share-based compensation expenses.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures <\/p>\n

The Company uses non-GAAP measures, such as non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income margin, non-GAAP\u00a0net income attributable to ordinary shareholders and non-GAAP net income per share, basic and diluted, in evaluating its operating results and for financial and operational decision-making purposes. The Company believes that the non-GAAP financial measures help identify underlying trends in its business by excluding the impact of share-based compensation expenses, which are non-cash charges and do not correlate to any operating activity trends. The Company believes that the non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information about the Company’s results of operations, enhance the overall understanding of the Company’s past performance and future prospects and allow for greater visibility with respect to key metrics used by the Company’s management in its financial and operational decision-making.<\/p>\n

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, and when assessing the Company’s operating performance, cash flows or liquidity, investors should not consider them in isolation, or as a substitute for net loss, cash flows provided by operating activities or other consolidated statements of operations and cash flows data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company’s definition of non-GAAP financial measures may differ from those of industry peers and may not be comparable with their non-GAAP financial measures.<\/p>\n

The Company mitigates these limitations by reconciling the non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable U.S. GAAP performance measures, all of which should be considered when evaluating the Company’s performance.<\/p>\n

For more information on the non-GAAP financial measures, please see the table captioned “Unaudited Reconciliation of GAAP and Non-GAAP Results” set forth at the end of this announcement.<\/p>\n
