Commentary

Mr. Richard Rixue Li, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Secoo, said, “We are pleased with our financial and operational performance in 2018, which marks our tenth anniversary since our founding. Performance wise, the fiscal year  was highlighted by year-over-year GMV growth of 52.9% and total revenue growth of 44.0%, as well as robust growth in the number of active customers that increased by 79.9% and 69.8%, respectively, for the fourth quarter and fiscal year, as luxury consumer spending remained resilient despite a macro-slowdown in the economy.

“In maintaining our leadership as both distinct trend-spotter and curator of luxury lifestyles the challenge has always been to meet the ever-evolving standards and definition of luxury to our consumers. In order to deliver on these goals, we not only upgraded our technology backbone but delved deeper into market segmentation, while expanding partnerships with high-end international consumer brands and service providers in order to continuously add to our evolving offerings. Ultimately our strategic positioning to be the leading boutique lifestyle platform is bearing fruit as we further strengthen our platform’s luxury eco-system through integration of our customer’s online and offline experiences.”

“Secoo’s solid results in the fourth quarter and throughout fiscal 2018 exemplifies the Company’s success in meeting unmet demand for our unique luxury lifestyle product offerings and experiences,” said Mr. Shaojun Chen, Chief Financial Officer of Secoo. “Benefiting from economies of scale and healthy operating leverage, our income from operations increasing by 475.8% and 131.3%, for the fourth quarter and full-year respectively.

First Quarter 2019 Guidance

Starting from the fourth quarter of 2018, we have been undergoing a shift in our marketplace platform in order to improve profitability. As a result, our GMV and revenue mix might be relatively different from our previous business model.

In light of this development in our business model, the Company currently expects total revenues for the first quarter of 2019 to be in the range of RMB0.97 billion and RMB1.07 billion, which would represent an increase of approximately 21% to 33% on a year-over-year basis.

The above outlook is based on the current market conditions and reflects the Company’s current and preliminary estimates of market and operating conditions and customer demand, which are all subject to change. The Company’s ability to achieve these projections is subject to risks and uncertainties. See “Safe Harbor Statement” at the end of this press release.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement our consolidated financial statements which are presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we also use non-GAAP income from operations, non-GAAP net income attributable to ordinary shareholders of Secoo Holding Limited, and non-GAAP basic and dilutive net income per share and ADS as additional non-GAAP financial measures. We present these non-GAAP financial measures because they are used by our management to evaluate our operating performance.  We define non-GAAP net income as net income excluding share-based compensation. We define non-GAAP net income per share as non-GAAP net income attributable to ordinary shareholders of Secoo Holding Limited dividing by weighted average number of basic and diluted share outstanding, including the dilutive effect of share-based awards as determined under the treasury stock method.  We define non-GAAP basic and diluted net income per ADS as non-GAAP basic and diluted net income per share divided by two as two ADSs represent one ordinary share.  We also believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our consolidated results of operations in the same manner as our management and in comparing financial results across accounting periods and to those of our peer companies.

The use of non-GAAP financial measures has certain limitations. These non-GAAP measures exclude certain items that have been and will continue to be incurred in the future and are not reflected in the presentation of the non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and should not be considered a substitute for or superior to U.S. GAAP results. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures utilized by other companies since such other companies may not calculate such measures in the same manner as Secoo does.

Reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure is set forth at the end of this release.
