      GUANGZHOU, China, May 19, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Yatsen Holding Limited ("Yatsen" or the "Company") (NYSE: YSG), a leader in the rapidly evolving China beauty market, today announced its unaudited financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2021.

      First Quarter 2021 Highlights

      • Total net revenues for the first quarter of 2021 increased 42.7% to RMB1.44 billion (US$220.5 million) from RMB1.01 billion for the first quarter of 2020.
      • Gross margin for the first quarter of 2021 was 68.6% compared to 61.7% for the first quarter of 2020.
      • Gross sales[1] for the first quarter of 2021 increased 47.0% to RMB1.69 billion (US$257.3 million) from RMB1.15 billion for the first quarter of 2020.
      • The number of Direct-to-Consumer ("DTC") customers[2] for the first quarter of 2021 increased 11.6% to 9.6 million from 8.6 million for the first quarter of 2020.
      • Average net revenue per DTC customer[3] for the first quarter of 2021 increased 24.5% to RMB122.9 from RMB98.7 for the first quarter of 2020.

      Mr. Jinfeng Huang, founder, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Yatsen, said, "The year is off to a good start with robust topline growth and continued execution of our multi-brand strategy. Growth in the quarter was driven by stellar performance of our flagship Perfect Diary brand as well as robust growth from Little Ondine, Abby's Choice and other brands under Yatsen's portfolio. We are especially pleased to see increases in revenue per DTC user and gross margin driven by brand premiumization and disciplined pricing and discounts policies.

      "The launch of our mass market cosmetics brand Pink Bear as well as the acquisition of Eve Lom and DR.WU's mainland China business this quarter propelled our brand portfolio expansion. While we are still in early stages of integration for our newly acquired brands, we already saw signs of success with the relaunch of certain hero products within the Galénic and DR.WU portfolio. Building on our momentum in the first quarter, we will continue to leverage our current unique window of opportunity to identify valuable brands and businesses to further enrich our portfolio and invest in critical research and development and infrastructure capabilities to sustain our competitive advantage over the long term."

      Mr. Donghao Yang, Chief Financial Officer and Director of Yatsen, commented, "We have had a solid start to the year, with total net revenues exceeding our guidance to reach RMB1.44 billion, a 42.7% year-over-year increase. As our top line expands, our gross margin also improved to 68.6% compared to 61.7% in the same period last year. We believe our leading market position and stellar operating performance position us well to achieve our strategic objectives this year and further capture the growth potential of China's beauty market."

      First Quarter 2021 Financial Results

      Net Revenues. Total net revenues for the first quarter of 2021 increased by 42.7% to RMB1.44 billion (US$220.5 million) from RMB1.01 billion for the first quarter of 2020, primarily attributable to (i) an increase in DTC customers and revenue per DTC customer during the period, (ii) an increase in sales from increasingly diversified sales channels, and (iii) an increase in the sales contributed by our newly launched and acquired brands.

      Gross Profit and Gross Margin. Gross profit for the first quarter of 2021 increased by 58.8% to RMB991.6 million (US$151.3 million) from RMB624.4 million for the first quarter of 2020. Gross margin for the first quarter of 2021 was 68.6% compared to 61.7% for the first quarter of 2020, attributable to (i) disciplined pricing and discounts policies, (ii) premiumization of our Perfect Diary brand, and (iii) increased sales generated from higher margin brands and through experience stores.

      Operating Expenses. Total operating expenses for the first quarter of 2021 were RMB1.33 billion (US$203.7 million), compared to RMB800.3 million for the first quarter of 2020. As a percentage of total net revenues, total operating expenses for the first quarter of 2021 were 92.4%, compared to 79.1% for the first quarter of 2020.

      • Fulfillment Expenses. Fulfillment expenses for the first quarter of 2021 were RMB92.7 million (US$14.2 million), compared to RMB107.1 million for the first quarter of 2020. As a percentage of total net revenues, fulfillment expenses for the first quarter of 2021 decreased to 6.4% from 10.6% for the first quarter of 2020. The decrease in percentage was primarily due to the normalization of logistics expense compared to the first quarter of 2020 during which logistics expenses were higher due to impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic.
      • Selling and Marketing Expenses. Selling and marketing expenses for the first quarter of 2021 were RMB1.04 billion (US$159.1 million), compared to RMB556.9 million for the first quarter of 2020. As a percentage of total net revenues, selling and marketing expenses for the first quarter of 2021 increased to 72.1% from 55.0% for the first quarter of 2020. The increase in percentage was primarily due to (i) investment in promotions and consumer awareness-building for the newer brands, and (ii) testing of the effectiveness of new traffic acquisition channels.
      • General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses for the first quarter of 2021 were RMB172.3 million (US$26.3 million), compared to RMB124.1 million for the first quarter of 2020. As a percentage of total net revenues, general and administrative expenses for the first quarter of 2021 decreased to 11.9% from 12.3% for the first quarter of 2020. The decrease in percentage was primarily due to increased economy of scale resulting from a higher level of revenue.
      • Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses for the first quarter of 2021 were RMB27.7 million (US$4.2 million), compared to RMB12.2 million for the first quarter of 2020. As a percentage of total net revenues, research and development expenses for the first quarter of 2021 increased to 1.9% from 1.2% for the first quarter of 2020. The increase was primarily due to an increase in personnel costs and share-based compensation expenses as a reflection of our commitment to enhance our research and development capabilities as sustainable source of competitive advantage.

      Loss from Operations and Non-GAAP Loss from Operations[4]. Loss from operations for the first quarter of 2021 was RMB343.3 million (US$52.4 million), representing operating loss margin of 23.8%, compared to loss from operations of RMB176.0 million, representing operating loss margin of 17.4%, for the first quarter of 2020. Non-GAAP loss from operations for the first quarter of 2021 was RMB258.3 million (US$39.4 million), representing non-GAAP operating loss margin of 17.9%, compared to non-GAAP loss from operations of RMB113.7 million, representing non-GAAP operating loss margin of 11.2%, for the first quarter of 2020.

      Net Loss and Non-GAAP Net Loss[5]. Net loss for the first quarter of 2021 was RMB319.0 million (US$48.7 million), representing net loss margin of 22.1%, compared to net loss of RMB191.7 million, representing net loss margin of 18.9%, for the first quarter of 2020. Non-GAAP net loss for the first quarter of 2021 was RMB234.3 million (US$35.8 million), representing non-GAAP net loss margin of 16.2%, compared to non-GAAP net loss of RMB129.4 million, representing non-GAAP net loss margin of 12.8%, for the first quarter of 2020.

      Net Loss attributable to Ordinary Shareholders per Diluted ADS[6] and Non-GAAP Net Loss attributable to Ordinary Shareholders per Diluted ADS[7]. Net loss attributable to Yatsen's ordinary shareholders per diluted ADS for the first quarter of 2021 was RMB0.50 (US$0.08), compared to net loss attributable to Yatsen's ordinary shareholders per diluted ADS of RMB4.60 for the first quarter of 2020.

      ended March 31, 2021 did not include customers of certain DTC channels as such data is yet to be available to the Company. As a result, the average net revenue per DTC customer for
      the three months ended March 31, 2021 did not take into account revenues generated from such channels.

      Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

      The Company uses non-GAAP income (loss) from operations, non-GAAP net income (loss), 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 share-based compensation expenses and amortization of intangible assets resulting from assets and business acquisitions. 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 and (iii) tax effects on non-GAAP adjustments. 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) tax effects on non-GAAP adjustments, (iv) accretion to preferred shares, and (v) deemed dividends to preferred shareholders due to modification of preferred shares. 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.
