Second Quarter 2026 Financial Results
Total net revenues increased by 2.5% to RMB3,414.6 million (US$503.3 million) from RMB3,331.9 million in the same quarter of 2025.
- Net revenues from franchised teahouses in the second quarter of 2026 were RMB2,474.0 million (US$364.6 million), compared to RMB3,020.7 million in the same quarter of 2025. This was mainly attributable to a decrease in total GMV in Greater China resulting from the economic headwinds as well as intense industry competition. Net revenues from franchised teahouses represented 72.5% of the Company’s total net revenues for the second quarter of 2026.
- Net revenues from company-owned teahouses in the second quarter of 2026 were RMB940.6 million (US$138.6 million), increasing from RMB311.2 million in the same quarter of 2025. The increase was mainly attributable to the change in the Company’s teahouse composition in Greater China and the expansion of overseas teahouse network. Net revenues from company-owned teahouses represented 27.5% of the Company’s total net revenues for the second quarter of 2026.
Total operating expenses were RMB2,889.9 million (US$425.9 million), representing a 10.4% decrease from RMB3,224.3 million in the same quarter of 2025.
- Cost of materials, storage and logistics was RMB1,571.2 million (US$231.6 million), representing an increase of 2.2% from RMB1,536.8 million in the same quarter of 2025, generally in line with overall revenue growth.
- Company-owned teahouse operating costs were RMB566.8 million (US$83.5 million), representing an increase of 207.8% from RMB184.1 million in the same quarter of 2025. The increase mainly resulted from the increase in the number of company-owned teahouses, which led to higher payroll, store rental, utilities, and other store operating expenses.
- Other operating costs were RMB115.8 million (US$17.1 million), representing a decrease of 33.3% from RMB173.7 million in the same quarter of 2025. This was mainly due to a decrease of RMB30.2 million in payroll expenses driven by organizational structure adjustments and headcount optimization. Other operating costs as a percentage of total net revenues were 3.4%, compared to 5.2% in the same quarter of 2025.
- Sales and marketing expenses were RMB301.5 million (US$44.4 million), representing a decrease of 21.7% from RMB385.0 million in the same quarter of 2025. This was mainly driven by decreases of (i) RMB30.7 million in share-based compensation expenses for sales and marketing staff; (ii) RMB31.1 million in payroll expenses (excluding share-based compensation expenses), both resulting from the streamlined branding and marketing team; and (iii) RMB14.0 million in advertising expenses supported by improved efficiency in advertising placements and precision marketing initiatives. Sales and marketing expenses as a percentage of total net revenues were 8.8%, compared to 11.6% in the same quarter of 2025.
- General and administrative expenses were RMB334.5 million (US$49.3 million), representing a decrease of 64.6% from RMB944.6 million in the same quarter of 2025. The decrease was primarily driven by decreases of (i) RMB482.7 million in share-based compensation expenses for administration, research and development staff; (ii) RMB48.0 million in payroll expenses (excluding share-based compensation expenses) and RMB30.2 million in rental, utilities, office and travelling expenses, both resulting from the streamlined administration and research team; and (iii) RMB28.6 million in professional service fees, primarily due to the service fees incurred in connection with the Company’s initial public offering in the second quarter of 2025. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of total net revenues were 9.8%, compared to 28.3% in the same quarter of 2025.

Net income was RMB464.8 million (US$68.5 million) in the second quarter of 2026, representing a net income margin of 13.6%, compared to RMB77.2 million, or a net income margin of 2.3%, in the same quarter of 2025.
Non-GAAP net income was RMB488.7 million (US$72.0 million) in the second quarter of 2026, representing a non-GAAP net income margin of 14.3%, compared to RMB629.8 million, or a non-GAAP net income margin of 18.9%, in the same quarter of 2025.

Key Definitions
- GMV (gross merchandise value) refers to gross merchandise value, a key operating metric that the Company’s management uses to measure and evaluate teahouses’ sales performance, which represents the sales value of product(s) in consumer orders (excluding unfulfilled, canceled or returned consumer orders, and including relevant value-added taxes) before discounts, if any, are applied, including shipping charges paid by consumers for orders placed on its mobile mini program, but excluding those charges paid by consumers for orders placed on other third-party online delivery platforms.
- Average monthly GMV per teahouse in Greater China is calculated by dividing (i) the sum of GMV generated by the monthly fully operational teahouses in Greater China in each calendar month during the specific period by (ii) the sum of the total number of the monthly fully operational teahouses in Greater China in each calendar month during the corresponding period.
- Same store GMV growth refers to the growth rate of GMV generated by same stores in Greater China and/or overseas during that specific period compared to GMV generated by these same stores during the corresponding period in the preceding year. Same stores are defined to be teahouses that (i) have been in operation for at least 13 months, and (ii) without material operational changes in both comparison periods.
- Non-GAAP net income. Calculated by net income excluding share-based compensation expenses.
- Non-GAAP basic and diluted net income per share. Calculated as non-GAAP net income attributable to the Company’s ordinary shareholders divided by weighted average number of basic and diluted shares.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company considers non-GAAP net income, as well as related margin or per share data, non-GAAP financial measures, as a supplemental measure to review and assess the operating performance. The presentation of this non-GAAP financial measure 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 this non-GAAP financial measure because it is used by the management to evaluate the operating performance and formulate business plans. The Company also believes that the use of this non-GAAP measure facilitates investors’ assessment of the operating performance.
This non-GAAP financial measure is not defined under U.S. GAAP and is not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. This non-GAAP financial measure has limitations as an analytical tool. One of the key limitations of using this non-GAAP financial measure is that it does not reflect all items of income and expense that affect the operations. Further, this non-GAAP measure may differ from the non-GAAP information used by other companies, including peer companies, and therefore its comparability may be limited. The Company compensates for these limitations by reconciling this non-GAAP financial measures to the nearest U.S. GAAP performance measure, all of which should be considered when evaluating the performance. The Company encourages you to review the financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.
The Company’s non-GAAP financial measure reflects adjustments for share-based compensation expense. The Company believes that the exclusion of share-based compensation expense is appropriate because it eliminates the impact of non-cash expenses that are based upon valuation methodologies and assumptions that vary over time, and the amount of the expense can vary significantly between companies due to factors that are unrelated to their core operating performance and that can be outside of their control. Although the Company excludes share-based compensation expense from the non-GAAP measure, equity compensation has been, and will continue to be, an important part of future compensation strategy and a significant component of future expenses and may increase in future periods.

* In preparing this unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements on Form 6-K, the Company identified a calculation error in the weighted-average number of ordinary shares used in computing diluted net income per share and corresponding diluted net income per ordinary share (“Diluted EPS”) as well as non-GAAP Diluted EPS for the six months ended June 30, 2025, as presented in the previously furnished Form 6-K for Second Quarter 2025. The error was limited solely to the computation of the cumulative six-month weighted-average number of ordinary shares used in computing Diluted EPS, and did not impact Diluted EPS for any individual three-month periods or any other reported amounts.
