MOGU Inc. (NYSE: MOGU) (“MOGU” or the "Company"), a leading
KOL-driven online fashion and lifestyle destination in China, today
announced its unaudited financial results for the first quarter of
fiscal year 2021 ended June 30, 2020.
Mr. Qi Chen, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of MOGU,
commented, "In the past quarter, we have witnessed steady recovery
from COVID-19. Our hosts and supply chain partners have gradually
resumed their normal operation. Our live video broadcasting
business has regained growth momentum and it grew 72.4% year over
year benefiting from our business restructuring towards the
LVB-focused model. We are highly dedicated to LVB-first strategy
and our LVB associated business is now accounted for 72.6% of our
total GMV this quarter. Our long term partnership with our KOLs has
also become MOGU's most valuable asset.”
"Our KOL-driven strategy has delivered a very unique user
experience." commented Mr. Raymond Huang, Chief Strategy Officer of
MOGU. "Our active LVB buyers grew by 37.0% this quarter year over
year. On average, they spent 71 minutes everyday watching MOGU live
and visited our platform 21 days a month. They like to interact
with our LVB hosts, share LVB hosts with their friends and keep
purchasing on our platform. Looking forward, it is our critical
mission to focus on improving user experience, diversifying KOL
base, and providing more value-for-money fashion products."

ended June 30, 2020 was RMB16,006 million (US$2,265.5 million), a
decrease of 8.6% year-over-year.
- Live Video Broadcast business continued to grow stronger
with associated GMV for the first quarter of fiscal year 2021
increasing by 72.4% year-over-year to RMB2,266 million (US$320.7
million). LVB associated GMV for the first quarter of fiscal year

- Total revenues for the first quarter of fiscal year 2021
were RMB132.5 million (US$18.8 million), a decrease of 46.8%
year-over-year.
First Quarter Fiscal Year 2021 Financial Results
Total revenues decreased by 46.8% to RMB132.5 million
(US$18.8 million) from RMB248.9 million during the same quarter of
fiscal year 2020.
- Commission revenues decreased by 34.1% to RMB85.3
million (US$12.1 million) from RMB129.4 million in the same period
of fiscal year 2020, primarily due to the remaining adverse impact
the COVID-19 pandemic has had on the Company’s e-commerce logistics
and consumer demand for apparel, as well as the restructuring of
the Company’s business towards a LVB-focused model. Commission
revenue from the LVB business grew significantly and was in line
with the continued strong growth in LVB-associated GMV.
- Marketing services revenues decreased by 73.1% to
RMB24.0 million (US$3.4 million) from RMB89.2million in the same
period of fiscal year 2020. The decrease was primarily due to the
COVID-19 pandemic and the restructuring of the Company’s business
towards a LVB-focused model.
- Other revenues decreased by 23.4% to RMB23.2 million
(US$3.3million) from RMB30.2 million in the same period of fiscal
year 2020, primarily due to a decrease in online direct sales.
Cost of revenues decreased by 19.5% to RMB48.8 million (US$6.9
million) from RMB60.6 million in the same period of fiscal year
2020, which was primarily due to a decrease in the costs associated
with decreased online direct sales.
Sales and marketing expenses decreased by 57.3% to RMB61.9
million (US$8.8 million) from RMB145.0 million in the same period
of fiscal year 2020, primarily due to optimized spending on user
acquisition activities and user incentive programs.
Research and development expenses decreased by 48.4% to RMB29.0
million (US$4.1 million) from RMB56.2 million in the same period of
fiscal year 2020, primarily as a result of headcount optimization
we conducted to counter the adverse impact of COVID-19.
General and administrative expenses decreased by 31.2% to
RMB23.5 million (US$3.3 million) from RMB34.2 million in the same
period of fiscal year 2020, primarily due to a decrease of
share-based compensation expenses.
Amortization of intangible assets increased by 9.3% to RMB70.5
million (US$10.0 million) from RMB64.5 million in the same period
of fiscal year 2020, primarily due to the amortization of the
broadcasting license acquired in September 2019.
Loss from operations was RMB94.9 million (US$13.4
million), compared to loss from operations of RMB105.3 million in
the same period of fiscal year 2020.
Net loss attributable to MOGU Inc.’s ordinary
shareholders was RMB88.9 million (US$12.6 million), compared to
a net loss attributable to MOGU Inc’s ordinary shareholders of
RMB120.5 million in the same period of fiscal year 2020.
Adjusted EBITDA3 was negative RMB17.4 million (US$2.5
million), compared to negative RMB25.3 million in the same period
of fiscal year 2020.
Adjusted net loss4 was RMB14.4 million (US$2.0 million),
compared to adjusted net loss of RMB42.3 million in the same period
of fiscal year 2020.
Basic and diluted loss per ADS were RMB0.81 (US$0.12) and
RMB0.81 (US$0.12), respectively, compared with RMB1.12 and RMB1.12,
respectively, in the same period of fiscal year 2020. One ADS
represents 25 Class A ordinary shares.
Cash and cash equivalents, Restricted cash and Short-term
investments were RMB1,048.8 million (US$148.4 million) as of
June 30, 2020, compared with RMB1,095.4 million as of March 31,
2020.
Purchase of Office Building
On August 8, 2020, MOGU signed an agreement to purchase an
office building located at the Hangzhou Zijingang Technology Zone
for a total consideration of RMB209.0 million (US$29.6 million).

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In evaluating the business, the Company considers and uses
nonGAAP measures, such as Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted net
profit/(loss) as supplemental measures to review and assess
operating performance. The presentation of these nonGAAP financial
measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a
substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The Company defines
Adjusted EBITDA as net loss before interest income, loss from
investments, net, income tax benefits, share of results of equity
investee, goodwill impairment, share-based compensation expenses,
amortization of intangible assets, and depreciation of property and
equipment. The Company defines Adjusted net profit/(loss) as net
loss excluding loss from investments, net, share-based compensation
expenses, goodwill impairment, amortization of intangible assets,
and adjustments for tax effects. Beginning from the second quarter
of fiscal year 2020, we combined each of (i) investment
gain/(loss), (ii) gain on deconsolidation of a subsidiary and (iii)
gain from investment disposals, into loss from investments. The
related financial statements prior to July 1, 2019 have been recast
to reflect this change. See “Unaudited Reconciliations of GAAP and
NonGAAP Results” at the end of this press release.
The Company presents these nonGAAP financial measures because
they are used by management to evaluate operating performance and
formulate business plans. The Company believes that the nonGAAP
financial measures help identify underlying trends in its business
by excluding certain expenses, gain/loss and other items that are
not expected to result in future cash payments or that are
nonrecurring in nature or may not be indicative of the Company’s
core operating results and business outlook. The Company also
believes that the nonGAAP financial measures could provide further
information about the Company’s results of operations, enhance the
overall understanding of the Company’s past performance and future
prospects.
The nonGAAP financial measures are not defined under U.S. GAAP
and are not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The nonGAAP
financial measures have limitations as analytical tools. The
Company’s nonGAAP financial measures do not reflect all items of
income and expense that affect the Company’s operations and do not
represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary
expenditures. Further, these nonGAAP measures may differ from the
nonGAAP information used by other companies, including peer
companies, and therefore their comparability may be limited. The
Company compensates for these limitations by reconciling the
nonGAAP financial measures to the nearest U.S. GAAP performance
measure, all of which should be considered when evaluating
performance. The Company encourages you to review the Company’s
financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single
financial measure.
For more information on the nonGAAP financial measures, please
see the table captioned “Unaudited Reconciliations of GAAP and
NonGAAP Results” set forth at the end of this press release.

1 GMV refers to the total value of orders placed on the MOGU
platform regardless of whether the products are sold, delivered or
returned, calculated based on the listed prices of the ordered
products without taking into consideration any discounts on the
listed prices. Buyers on the MOGU platform are not charged for
separate shipping fees over the listed price of a product. If
merchants include certain shipping fees in the listed price of a
product, such shipping fees will be included in GMV. As a prudent
matter aiming at eliminating any influence on MOGU’s GMV of
irregular transactions, the Company excludes from its calculation
of GMV transactions over a certain amount (RMB100,000) and
transactions by users over a certain amount (RMB1,000,000) per day.
2 The U.S. dollar (US$) amounts disclosed in this press release,
except for those transaction amounts that were actually settled in
U.S. dollars, are presented solely for the convenience of the
readers. The conversion of Renminbi (RMB) into US$ in this press
release is based on the exchange rate set forth in the H.10
statistical release of the Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve System as of June 30, 2020, which was RMB7.0651 to US$1.00.
The percentages stated in this press release are calculated based
on the RMB amounts. 3 Adjusted EBITDA represents net loss before
(i) interest income, loss from investments, net, income tax
benefits and share of results of equity investee, goodwill
impairment and (ii) certain non-cash expenses, consisting of
share-based compensation expenses, amortization of intangible
assets, and depreciation of property and equipment. See “Unaudited
Reconciliations of GAAP and NonGAAP Results” at the end of this
press release. 4 Adjusted net loss represents net loss excluding
(i) loss from investments, net, (ii) share-based compensation
expenses, (iii) goodwill impairment, (iv) amortization of
intangible assets, (v) adjustments for tax effects. See “Unaudited
Reconciliations of GAAP and NonGAAP Results” at the end of this
press release.
