      Mr. Jinfeng Huang, Founder, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Yatsen, stated, "We are pleased to share our solid performance in the fourth quarter of 2024, despite the continued challenges in the beauty market. We achieved year-over-year growth in total net revenues for the fourth quarter, driven by the recovery of Perfect Diary as well as the combined growth of our three major skincare brands. In terms of profitability, we also made solid progress, narrowing our net loss margin while delivering non-GAAP net income for the quarter. This performance reflects the success of our strategic initiatives in product development, brand building, and cost optimization. As we move forward, we will remain committed to our strategic transformation plan and are confident in our ability to navigate the evolving market dynamics and drive sustainable growth." 

      Mr. Donghao Yang, Director and Chief Financial Officer of Yatsen, commented, "Our financial results for the fourth quarter and full year of 2024 demonstrate the effective execution of our strategic transformation. In the fourth quarter, we achieved a 7.1% year-over-year increase in net revenues, in line with our guidance. Our gross margin rose to 77.8%, up from 73.7% for the prior year period. While we recorded a net loss, primarily due to a goodwill impairment of RMB403.1 million, we achieved solid non-GAAP net income with a 9.3% margin.[3] For the full year 2024, our total net revenues declined by 0.6% year over year, reflecting overall stability. Meanwhile, our gross margin, net loss margin, and non-GAAP net loss margin all showed improvements compared with the prior year. Looking ahead, we will continue to enhance our operational efficiencies and strategically allocate resources to position the company for long-term success."

      Fourth Quarter 2024 Financial Results

      Net Revenues

      Total net revenues for the fourth quarter of 2024 increased by 7.1% to RMB1.15 billion (US$157.3 million) from RMB1.07 billion for the prior year period. The increase was primarily due to a 16.4% year-over-year increase in net revenues from Color Cosmetics Brands.[4]

      Gross Profit and Gross Margin

      Gross profit for the fourth quarter of 2024 increased by 13.0% to RMB893.0 million (US$122.3 million) from RMB790.1 million for the prior year period. Gross margin for the fourth quarter of 2024 increased to 77.8% from 73.7% for the prior year period. The increase was primarily driven by an increase in sales of higher-gross-margin products.

      Operating Expenses

      Total operating expenses for the fourth quarter of 2024 decreased by 3.5% to RMB1.28 billion (US$175.9 million) from RMB1.33 billion for the prior year period. As a percentage of total net revenues, total operating expenses for the fourth quarter of 2024 were 111.8%, as compared with 124.0% for the prior year period.

      • Fulfillment Expenses. Fulfillment expenses for the fourth quarter of 2024 were RMB63.5 million (US$8.7 million), as compared with RMB62.7 million for the prior year period. As a percentage of total net revenues, fulfillment expenses for the fourth quarter of 2024 decreased to 5.5% from 5.8% for the prior year period. The decrease was primarily due to an increase in the overall average selling price of the Company's products, as well as further improvements in logistics efficiency.
      • Selling and Marketing Expenses. Selling and marketing expenses for the fourth quarter of 2024 were RMB690.6 million (US$94.6 million), as compared with RMB717.4 million for the prior year period. As a percentage of total net revenues, selling and marketing expenses for the fourth quarter of 2024 decreased to 60.1% from 66.9% for the prior year period. The decrease was primarily due to the Company's more strategic marketing spending, combined with lower payroll expenses related to selling and marketing personnel.
      • General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses for the fourth quarter of 2024 were RMB100.1 million (US$13.7 million), as compared with RMB158.7 million for the prior year period. As a percentage of total net revenues, general and administrative expenses for the fourth quarter of 2024 decreased to 8.7% from 14.8% for the prior year period. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower payroll expenses resulting from a reduction in general and administrative headcount and lower share-based compensation expenses.
      • Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses for the fourth quarter of 2024 were RMB26.3 million (US$3.6 million), as compared with RMB36.9 million for the prior year period. As a percentage of total net revenues, research and development expenses for the fourth quarter of 2024 decreased to 2.3% from 3.4% for the prior year period. The decrease was primarily attributable to the Company's efforts to maintain research and development expenses at a reasonable level relative to total net revenues.
      • Impairment of Goodwill. Impairment of goodwill for the fourth quarter of 2024 was RMB403.1 million (US$55.2 million), as compared with RMB354.0 million in the prior year period. Impairment recorded in this quarter mainly represents the amount by which the carrying value of the Eve Lom reporting unit exceeded its fair value, based on the quantitative goodwill impairment test, primarily due to weaker operating results than expected.

      Loss from operations for the fourth quarter of 2024 was RMB390.7 million (US$53.5 million), as compared with RMB539.6 million for the prior year period. Operating loss margin was 34.0%, as compared with 50.3% for the prior year period.

      Total net revenues for the full year of 2024 decreased by 0.6% to RMB3.39 billion (US$464.9 million) from RMB3.41 billion for the prior year period, primarily attributable to the decline in net revenues from Color Cosmetics Brands, partially offset by the increase in net revenues from Skincare Brands.

      Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

      The Company uses non-GAAP income (loss) from operations, non-GAAP operating income (loss) margin, non-GAAP net income (loss), non-GAAP net income (loss) margin, non-GAAP net income (loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders and non-GAAP net income (loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders per diluted ADS, each a non-GAAP financial measure, in reviewing and assessing its operating performance. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures 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 presents these non-GAAP financial measures because they are used by the management to evaluate operating performance and formulate business plans. Non-GAAP financial measures help identify underlying trends in its business, provide further information about its results of operations, and enhance the overall understanding of its past performance and future prospects. The Company defines non-GAAP income (loss) from operations as income (loss) from operations excluding (i) share-based compensation expenses, (ii) amortization of intangible assets resulting from assets and business acquisitions and (iii) impairment of goodwill. Non-GAAP operating income (loss) margin is non-GAAP income (loss) from operations as a percentage of total net revenues. The Company defines non-GAAP net income (loss) as net income (loss) excluding (i) share-based compensation expenses, (ii) amortization of intangible assets resulting from assets and business acquisitions, (iii) revaluation of investments on the share of equity method investments, (iv) impairment of goodwill and (v) tax effects on non-GAAP adjustments. Non-GAAP net income (loss) margin is non-GAAP net income (loss) as a percentage of total net revenues. The Company defines non-GAAP net income (loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders as net income (loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders excluding (i) share-based compensation expenses, (ii) amortization of intangible assets resulting from assets and business acquisitions, (iii) revaluation of investments on the share of equity method investments, (iv) impairment of goodwill, (v) tax effects on non-GAAP adjustments and (vi) accretion to redeemable non-controlling interests. Non-GAAP net income (loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders per diluted ADS is computed using non-GAAP net income (loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders divided by weighted average number of diluted ADS outstanding for computing diluted earnings per ADS.

      However, the non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools as the non-GAAP financial measures are not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP and 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 measures to the nearest U.S. GAAP performance measure, all of which should be considered when evaluating performance. The Company encourages investors and others to review its financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure. Reconciliations of Yatsen's non-GAAP financial measure to the most comparable U.S. GAAP measure are included at the end of this press release.
