Notes:

  • (1) Not meaningful for comparison due to a non-recurring gain of RMB1.4 billion from the fair value changes of convertible redeemable preferred shares for the six months ended June 30, 2023. We did not record any further fair value changes of the convertible redeemable preferred shares after the Listing as the preferred share liabilities were redesignated and reclassified from liabilities to equity after the automatically converting of preferred shares into ordinary shares upon the Listing. For more details, please refer to “Financial Review – Non-IFRS Measures” in this report.

  • (2) We define adjusted net loss as (loss)/profit for the Reporting Period, excluding share-based compensation expenses and fair value changes of convertible redeemable preferred shares. We exclude these items because they do not involve any cash outflow: (i) sharebased compensation expenses primarily represent the non-cash employee benefit expenses incurred in connection with our 2016 Plan, 2021 Plan and 2023 Plan. Such expenses in any specific year are not expected to result in future cash payments, and (ii) fair value changes of convertible redeemable preferred shares mainly represent changes in the fair value of the convertible redeemable preferred shares issued by us and relate to changes in our valuation.

Management Discussions and Analysis

During the first half of 2024, China’s macroeconomic recovery continued, and we are pleased to witness the increasing enthusiasm for sports and fitness, especially as the Summer Olympic Games is reviving the appetite for athletic activities. We are observing an upward trend for outdoors activities, and increased usage of fitness data and analytical tools, reflecting on the ever-deepening market perception of healthy fitness routines as well as sports and leisure activities. These positive trends reinforce our confidence in the long-term prospects of Keep.

We delivered healthy and balanced growth during the Reporting Period, accomplished by improvements in both users and business operation scales. In addition, our loss narrowed further as we continued to adjust operational efficiency across user base and scale expansion with prudent cost management. We continue to elevate our user experience, expand our portfolio of services and benefits, optimize our marketing strategy across online fitness services, smart fitness devices, and complementary fitness products to highlight our unique value proposition, and enhance user trust and consumer sentiment in the Keep brand. During the Reporting Period, we conducted and expanded our share repurchase program to strengthen the value of our Shareholders. With the growing enthusiasm in sports and fitness activities throughout China, we are confident in our long-term growth prospects.

During the Reporting Period, we meticulously balanced the foundation of our business with cost reductions and commercialization efficiency improvements, striving to promote a steady and engaged user base while gradually elevating user value. By adopting these initiatives, while consolidating our leading position in the industry, we are striving for balanced improvement in both business scale and commercialization efficiency. We are currently on track for steady recovery and are committed to sustaining high-quality development.

Our total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2024 were RMB1,037.3 million, representing a 5.4% year-over-year increase, primarily due to increased resilience and scale of our monetization solutions across self-branded fitness products, online membership subscription, and advertising sales. Our gross profit margin continued to improve in the first half of 2024, expanding to 46.0% from 43.0% in the same period last year. Adjusted net loss (non-IFRS measure) considerably narrowed by 28.0% year-over-year to RMB160.7 million in the first half of 2024, compared to RMB223.1 million during the same period last year. Adjusted net loss margin (non-IFRS measure) narrowed to 15.5% in the first half of 2024, compared to 22.7% in the same period last year. These financial achievements reflect the progress we have made in our laser-focused strategic execution and efficiency performance, contributing to our expanded scale and commercialization strengths. These approaches underscore our goal of generating sustained revenues from an engaged user base, enriched content and functionality across our platform, enhanced market share of self-branded products, as well as improved margin profile via effective supply chain management, extended scalability and enhanced operational efficiency. Following the upgrading of Keep App 8.0 version, we are committed to improving user fitness experience and elevating the commercial value of user. Meanwhile, in the process of scaling down certain non-core business operations, we are also optimizing and discovering new endeavors, such as adjusting our virtual sports events business, and building a portfolio of AI-driven fitness app for the overseas markets. In addition, our share repurchase program reflects our commitment to enhancing Shareholders’ value and confidence in our future business prospects, and we will continue to strategically invest in initiatives that building momentum for long-term sustainable growth.

Our average MAUs and average monthly subscribing members were 29.7 million and 3.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, compared to 29.5 million and 3.0 million in the same period in 2023, delivering growth in both MAUs and monthly subscribing members, thus reinforcing our leading position in the industry and reflecting the strengthened the value of each user as we scale our business, which is evidenced by improvement in our average monthly revenue per MAU with 5.0% year-over-year increase. At the end of March 2024, we rolled out the upgraded Keep App 8.0 version, with a primary focus on providing an enhanced fitness experience. We are encouraged to see that user activities and usages across our core users captured various new trends, indicating a growing outdoor-related user base and heightened engagement driven by the expanded outdoor offerings. Furthermore, we are gradually observing positive impact on wider usage stemming from the value of tools and data within the Keep App. These enhancements in online content and offerings, categories expansion, and elevated data functionality have facilitated an improvement in the membership penetration rate, which increased from 10.2% in the first half of 2023 to 11.1% in the first half of 2024.

Expanding Online Fitness Offerings

We consistently launch innovative and multifaceted online offerings to cater to users’ evolving notions and needs regarding fitness and sports. In March 2024, we launched Keep App 8.0 version, featuring a major upgrade aimed at offering users a more diversified fitness experience along with an elevated value proposition. This upgrade enhanced our online portfolio with expansive and easy-to-use features and accessibility, more exposure to outdoor and interest-driven activities, integrated immersive gameplay and interactions, as well as intelligent data-driven functionality to boost athletic performance. This innovative upgrade is a reflection of our new mission to “Fuel every workout, Keep the neighborhood energetic.” We are optimistic that the more diversified and interactive fitness experience, combined with the seamless integration of our hardware and online portfolio, will bode well for enhancing the overall value of our offerings across our one-stop fitness ecosystem. Key features of Keep App 8.0 version include:

  • Extended sports categories and third-party hardware integration : Keep App 8.0 version now offers a wide variety of over 60 sports categories, including running, cycling, ball games, skiing, while incorporating more leisure and trendy activities, as interest-driven fitness and sports have quickly emerged as a popular trend. Our platform can now also seamlessly integrate and synchronize with over 50 intelligent devices to make activity tracking easier and more convenient.

Keep Inc. Interim Report 2024

Management Discussions and Analysis

  • Expanded outdoor exposure : We continue to expand outdoor-related activities, with a special focus on the running categories, by providing additional running routes, sophisticated functionalities for professional runners in collaboration with race organizers, tools and gameplay to broadly engage users who are passionate of outdoors running. Keep App has covered over 100,000 running routes spanning more than 300 cities across China for users to select based on their needs.

  • Enhanced user experience with interactive engagement and fitness data value : We have upgraded the user community engagement and interaction, while also strengthening data-driven value to enhance the user experience. Specifically, we upgraded the group activity function, launching about 200 themed-activities per week on average, and revamped more than 140 clubs to encourage Keepers to meet challenges and enjoy fitness and sports together. Meanwhile, we kept exploring and enriching fitness data value by providing analytical tools and data-driven intelligent functionalities, tapping into data-centric benefits to improve user workout experiences and reinforce the foundation for our continuous upgrades in AI offerings.

With the continuous expansion of our online portfolios, we are devoted to fulfilling the diverse needs of different users and to gradually improving membership conversion efficiency. This goal is further implemented by the following approaches: on the one hand, we remain committed to enriching our member-exclusive content library, covering more categories across a comprehensive range of fitness experiences, from niche to popular categories, from entry-level to advanced offerings, presented by dedicated in-house team and trendy influential creators; on the other hand, we continue to introduce diversified benefits that gain traction with conversion, including (i) upgrading our outdoor offerings; (ii) discovering and further building up capabilities in data-driven fitness functionalities and experience. Through these approaches, we have managed to promote online membership conversion and increase membership penetration rate on a year-over-year basis. Furthermore, our continuous operation measures have resulted in increased levels of fitness activity among our members. Some detailed developments during the Reporting Period are set out below:

  • Expanding online member-exclusive content library . With the expansion of categories for both indoor and outdoor, we are primarily focusing on professional and trendy contents by constantly improving the advancement and professionalism of the courses. We are gradually expanding our library of in-house developed member-exclusive courses, as well as extending partnerships with top fitness influencers (including Pamela Reif, Aurora Ouyang, April Han, and Anna Engelschall), thus reinforcing our content stronghold through diversified and professional offerings. As a result, the total number of member-exclusive courses available on our platform increased to 5,595 as of June 30, 2024, compared to 2,366 as of June 30, 2023. During the first half of 2024, the number of workout sessions completed by members following these courses increased by over 70% from the same period of 2023.

  • Newly-launched and updated in-house developed courses : Expansion of new and creative content such as Body Shaping with No Equipment (徒手塑形訓練), At-Home Weight Training (小器械力量訓練), Aerobics Combo (有氧╱混氧), Drills (操課), Warm-Ups and Cool-Down for Relaxation (熱身放鬆), and Girl Group Fat Burning Dance Series (女團燃脂舞系列) among others.

  • Innovative member-exclusive content developed with fitness influencers : Some of these popular classes include Upper Body Shaping: T15 Black Technology Series by Pamela Reif (帕梅拉上肢塑形: T15 黑 科技系列), 1+1 Thinning Arms: Upgraded Four-Episodes/Slimming Legs for Beginners by April Han (韓小 四 1+1 瘦手臂: 升級四件套╱小白首選瘦腿聖經), Anna Engelschall (also known as: growingannanas 安娜). In addition, we extended cooperation with well-known IPs to create immersive course experiences, such as Keep × Arknights: Chongyue Martial Arts Fat Burning (Keep × 明日方舟: 重岳武術燃脂). This course utilizes 3D motion capture and modeling technology to combine the beloved game characters with martial arts elements for in-depth immersive experiences that tend to motivate game fans for sports participation.

10

  • Enhancing member-exclusive outdoor category experience. Our fun run feature now can generate advanced 8km instruction, compared to only 3km and 5km availability last year. This 8km option can easily be used by novice runners to master the advanced running capabilities with scientifically and safely designed training instructions.

  • Exploring and enriching the value of fitness tools and data . With a growing usage base for fitness and exercise data, we are actively assessing different methodologies to enriching data dimensions and analytical capabilities, in order to empower users to better record, measure and analyze their physical performance and changing athletic attributes, to accurately guide them towards appropriate fitness training and performance for the next step. Some of our data-driven offerings include:

  • Body assessment (身體評估): Based on our previously launched full-body assessment, we have expanded coverage to include more body parts during the first half of 2024, including legs, foot arch, abdomen & waist, neck and shoulders. We aim to facilitate users with accurate assessments of their respective physical status, and subsequently put together a targeted fitness plan for improvement based on the detailed and straightforward assessment.

  • Running performance assessment (跑步能力評估): We provide novice runners with a more user-friendly, intuitive and detailed interpretation of their running capabilities by generating multiple scores in professional metrics, including aerobic capability, lactic acid tolerance, anaerobic endurance, and sprint ability, which can be used to personalize training programs and give suggestions for future advancements on a scientific basis.

Prospecting and Developing Offline Activities

Through our services spanning online offerings and e-commerce fitness product sales, we have accumulated keen insights into online users and fitness population, positioning ourselves to capture new market opportunities. Over the past years, we have successfully laid the foundation for sports events program, by establishing the user preference for Keep virtual sport events that combines professional endorsement and trendy themes, and connects online and offline outreach. As we entered 2024, we are actively adapting to users’ growing demand for offline activities and optimizing our sports events business structurally, where we now intend to prioritize on stimulating user engagement and exploring more synergetic opportunities across our ecosystem through both online and offline presence over the long term, rather than solely relying on consumer-end (C-end) online monetization solutions. To this end, we have launched a series of activities aimed at driving users’ engagement for sports and fitness workout, and are committed to continuously mobilizing participation from diversified user demographic groups, such as widening the event pricing packages range to RMB9.9 to RMB269, as well as introducing small-ticket event merchandise and accessories, etc. With our track records in providing users more enjoyable, relaxed and engaging sports events experiences, we have been experimenting with more avenues during the first half of 2024. These efforts include rolling out new gameplays, strengthening the price to value of our products, improving the operational capabilities of our in-house IP events, and transforming supply chain management. Simultaneously, along with the expansion of our offline and outdoor presence, by leveraging our advertising proficiency, we have enhanced our monetization capabilities both across the offline sphere and for business-end customers (B-end). Furthermore, we are actively exploring alternatives to widen the range of activity types, tapping into more enthusiasts of niche segments, such as Anime Comic Games (ACG), marathon runners, cycling enthusiasts, and those interested in trendy sports, for potential channel expansion beyond our Keep App.

Keep Inc. Interim Report 2024 11

Management Discussions and Analysis

To cater to the increasingly diverse demand of users for offline and outdoor activities, we are expanding our portfolio of offline activities. Previously, our outdoor categories primarily focused on running, walking, and cycling. With the upgrade of Keep App 8.0 version, we have added more exposure to offline and outdoor activities and expanded our outdoor portfolio across online solutions, offline events and self-branded products. Keep’s popular activities complement the sports themes, such as K-MARS (城市K馬) city-themed road races which gathers local runners through a series of races, and the Good Riding Festival (好騎節) which integrates indoor and outdoor cycling scenes, bringing spinning bike users, outdoor cycling enthusiasts and daily commuters together. These diverse activities not only enrich users’ outdoor experience, but also broaden our avenues for exploring offline monetization through novel advertising formats. Furthermore, we actively utilize our expertise in sports technology to empower professional events such as marathons and cycling races:

  • In May 2024, we sponsored the prestigious Desafío China by La Vuelta – Beijing Changping (環西自行車中國挑 戰賽•北京昌平站), attracting nearly 2,600 elite cyclists from 28 countries and regions. In this event, we simulated an online same-theme virtual cycling event that mimics the actual route with authentic scenic view, as well as co-developed the identical medal with La Vuelta for online participants and offline contestants for the first time, attracting a cumulative number of online participants of over 20,000.

  • In May 2024, we served as the race technology service provider for the renowned Lanzhou Marathon (蘭州馬拉松). We facilitated participants in enjoying a more innovative running experience, by introducing online team formation and full-route real-time visualization of the official pacers through our technological expertise.

We intend to inspire users’ enthusiasm for sports, actively evaluate opportunities to promote users’ mentality and provide diverse sports experiences. Our trendy sports label “Cool Sports Laboratory (酷運動實驗室)” focuses on exploring novel methods and engaging recreation for traditional sports and discovering new trendy sports activities, and integrates offline social scenarios with fresh, popular and interesting activities. In April 2024, Cool Sports Laboratory held a sport-themed market “Sports XIU (Show) Court (運動 XIU 場)” in Beijing, where we released novel sports courses, including Baduanjin & Tai Chi (八段錦&太極), fat-burning parties, Zumba, Kabaddi and barbell, in collaboration with eight renowned brands. Users are encouraged to try niche activities and sports experiences through our offline events. Consequently, owing to our leading position as the largest online fitness platform by user base, our ability to empower users by fulfilling their pursuit of healthy and active lifestyles through integrated online-and-offline events constitutes a unique advantage. This advantage serves as a catalyst for the growth of our advertising business, attracting a broader spectrum of advertisers and leading to increased advertising sales in the first half of 2024.

12

Self-branded Fitness Products

Amid the overall recovery in China’s retail consumption market, consumption in sports and fitness products is growing at a faster pace. Our self-branded fitness products rebounded in the first half of 2024, solidifying our leading market position as the preferred choice for intelligent and professional sports products. We continue to gain market share across our core categories, with solid growth momentum from complementary fitness products as we progressively enriched our products offerings from indoor to outdoor. This is mainly due to the wide recognition of our product quality and functionality, as well as the continuous improvement of operational efficiency, which has driven the improvement of segment revenue and gross profit margin.

  • Smart devices : We strengthened the operating performance of our flagship products in core categories. As an example, the classic B4 wristband successfully extended its product life cycle, showcasing sustained product strengths and improved commercial efficiency. The technical knowhow and application capabilities in wearable products accumulated through our wristband for sports activities serve as a fundamental foundation for our future pipeline development. In 2024, we are focusing on in-house research and development capabilities for wearable products, and we are delighted to release the very first smart watch in August, featuring expanded sports activities and application. In addition, we are deepening integration between software and hardware in terms of gameplay within our ecosystem, creating a differentiated interactive experience. For instance, Keep Bike’s library of themed outdoor cycling routes expanded to over 90 at the end of June 2024 (compared to over 40 at the end of June 2023), and now offers more scenic and prestigious routes such as The Thousand Islet Lake Series, Desafío China by La Vuelta, The Three Grand Tours, Xinjiang Series, Cityride Series, China Mountains and Seas Series (環千 島湖系列、環西中國挑戰賽、世界三大環賽、新疆系列、Cityride系列、華夏山海系列). We also introduced a new professional racing mode to offer users a fully immersive, competitive and realistic experience.

  • Complementary fitness products : As we successively expand our offerings from indoor to outdoor equipment, we continue to offer users a diverse array of choices at reasonable prices. As a result, our core categories such as strength, running, and outdoor-related gears experienced solid growth momentum. For instance, strength training items, such as dumbbells and kettlebells, maintained positive growth trends; running apparel rolled out in 2023 experienced elevated customers reviews and increased sales contribution in the first half of 2024; new products such as floor-friendly soft rubber kettlebells, elbow-supported ab rollers, and multi-colored dumbbells, are showing varying degrees of rapid growth. Our outdoor offerings are also gaining momentum as they cater to diverse user demands and trends, primarily complementing essential items for outdoor activities, including swimming caps, swimming goggles, running socks, hiking bags, and hats.

We have deepened our efforts to refine operations, further enhance efficiency in supply chain management and research and development. These achievements have effectively bolstered our agility and flexibility as our business scale continues to increase. As the scale effect continues, along with ongoing enhancement in operational efficiency, we are gradually driving improvement in both high-quality revenue and profitability. As a result, gross profit margin for self-branded fitness products increased to 31.5% in the first half of 2024, compared to 27.9% in the first half of 2023.

Management Discussions and Analysis

Outlook

Although overall consumer confidence is still gradually recovering, with opportunities and challenges coexisting, we actively respond to market changes and remain optimistic about the long-term development prospects. We are committed to optimizing service and product experience, which are key elements of our business fundamental, as well as focusing on commercialization efficiency improvement. To this end, we will continue to invest in the following fronts: (i) concentrate on enhancing overall online offerings; (ii) further explore the outdoor category by enriching member privileges, exploring the value of tools and data, and actively expanding offline presence; (iii) actively expand AI-driven overseas fitness app portfolio for innovative fitness experience; (iv) further promote the expansion of self-branded fitness products.

Gross profit of online membership and paid content increased by 10.1% from RMB269.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 to RMB296.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as we generated higher sales from membership subscription with optimized content related cost.

Gross profit of advertising and others decreased by 6.7% from RMB24.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 to RMB22.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, primarily due to the relatively higher cost of certain offline advertising activities.

Fulfillment expenses

Fulfillment expenses were RMB61.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, representing a 25.8% decrease from RMB83.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, primarily due to optimized warehousing, packaging and delivery expenses.

Selling and marketing expenses

Selling and marketing expenses were RMB323.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, representing a 25.8% increase from RMB257.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, primarily due to an increase of RMB65.4 million in promotion and advertising expenses due to more marketing activities for brand promotion and user acquisition.

Administrative expenses

Administrative expenses were RMB90.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, representing a 19.3% decrease from RMB112.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, primarily attributable to decreases of (i) RMB14.6 million in expected credit loss in accounts receivables because we optimized our receivables management measures; and (ii) RMB7.2 million in administrative personnel costs (including related share-based compensation expenses) mainly due to the fluctuation of share-based compensation expenses.

Research and development expenses

Research and development expenses were RMB195.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, representing a 19.6% decrease from RMB243.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, primarily attributable to decreases of (i) RMB39.6 million in research and development personnel costs (including related share-based compensation expenses); (ii) RMB4.6 million in cloud computing service fees; and (iii) RMB2.1 million in outsourcing and other labor costs, as we optimized the above related expenses.

Fair value changes of convertible redeemable preferred shares

Fair value changes of convertible redeemable preferred shares was RMB1.4 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The change in the fair value of convertible redeemable preferred shares was primarily attributable to the changes in the valuation of the Company. We did not record any further fair value changes of the convertible redeemable preferred shares following the listing of the shares of the Company on the Main Board of the Stock Exchange (the “ Listing ”) as preferred shares liabilities were redesignated and reclassified from liabilities to equity after automatically converting into ordinary shares upon the Listing.

(Loss)/profit for the period

As a result of the foregoing, the loss for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was RMB163.4 million, compared with a profit of RMB1.2 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The profit for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was primarily due to fair value changes of convertible redeemable preferred shares. Adjusted net loss (non-IFRS measure) was RMB160.7 million and RMB223.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Non-IFRS Measures

To supplement our consolidated financial information, which are presented in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, we also use adjusted net loss as an additional financial measure, which is not required by, or presented in accordance with, IFRS Accounting Standards.

We believe adjusted net loss provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our consolidated results of operations in the same manner as they help our management. However, our presentation of adjusted net loss may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. The use of adjusted net loss has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation from, or as a substitute for an analysis of, our results of operations or financial condition as reported under IFRS Accounting Standards.

We define adjusted net loss as (loss)/profit for the period, excluding share-based compensation expenses and fair value changes of convertible redeemable preferred shares. We exclude these items because they do not involve any cash outflow:

– Share-based compensation expenses primarily represent the non-cash employee benefit expenses incurred in connection with the Amended and Restated 2016 Employee’s Stock Option Plan adopted in June 2021 (the “ 2016 Plan ”), the Amended and Restated 2021 Employee’s Stock Option Plan adopted in June 2021 (the “ 2021 Plan ”), and the Post-IPO Share Incentive Plan (the “ 2023 Plan ”) effective on July 12, 2023, being the date on which the shares of the Company were listed on the Main Board of the Stock Exchange. Such expenses in any specific period are not expected to result in future cash payments.

– Fair value changes of convertible redeemable preferred shares mainly represent changes in the fair value of the convertible redeemable preferred shares issued by us and relate to changes in our valuation. We did not record any further fair value changes of the convertible redeemable preferred shares after the Listing as preferred shares liabilities were redesignated and reclassified from liabilities to equity after automatically converting into ordinary shares upon the Listing.

The following table reconciles our adjusted net loss for the periods presented to the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards, which is (loss)/profit for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023:

Management Discussions and Analysis

Liquidity and capital resource

For the six months ended June 30, 2024, we funded our cash requirements primarily from historical equity financing activities. Our cash and cash equivalents primarily consist of cash at bank, highly liquid deposits placed in banks with original maturities of three months or less and cash held at third party payment platform that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

We had cash and cash equivalents of RMB1.4 billion as of June 30, 2024, as compared to RMB1.6 billion as of December 31, 2023. The decrease was primarily due to the use of cash for operating and financing activities. Most of the cash and cash equivalents and time deposits of the Group were denominated in Renminbi and U.S. dollars.

Significant investments

As at June 30, 2024, we did not hold any significant investments (including any investment in an investee company) with a value of 5% or more of the Group’s total assets.

Material acquisitions and/or disposals of subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures

We did not have any material acquisitions and/or disposals of subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures during the Reporting Period.

Future plans for material investments and capital assets

As of the date of this report, we did not have specific future plans for material investments and capital assets.

Employee and remuneration

As of June 30, 2024, the number of our full-time employees was 920. The total employee benefit expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2024, including share-based payment expenses, were RMB282.0 million, as compared to RMB335.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

We offer competitive wages and other benefits to the employees and provide discretionary performance bonus as well as share options and share awards under our share incentive plans as further incentives. We have also provided and continue to improve career development pathways and talent training systems for employees to facilitate their self-growth. The Group’s remuneration policies are formulated based on the performance of individual employees and are reviewed regularly.

In accordance with the rules and regulations in the PRC, we participate in the applicable housing provident funds and various social insurance plans for employees initiated by local and provincial governments. The Group and the PRC based employees are required to make monthly contributions to these plans calculated as a specific percentage of the employees’ salaries.

Bank borrowings and gearing ratio

As of June 30, 2024, we did not have outstanding bank borrowings.

As of June 30, 2024, the Group’s gearing ratio (i.e. total liabilities divided by total assets) was 0.27 (as of December 31, 2023: 0.24).

18

Contingent liabilities

As of June 30, 2024, we did not have any material contingent liabilities or guarantees.

Pledge of assets

As of June 30, 2024, there was no material pledge of assets.

Interest rate risk and foreign exchange risk

We are exposed to insignificant interest rate risk. This is primarily attributable to the fact that we did not hold any significant assets or liabilities that were carried at floating rates. Our financial assets and liabilities are primarily composed of fixed-rate instruments and, as such, are not subject to frequent fluctuations in interest rates. This strategic financial stance has shielded our operations from the volatility often associated with varying interest rates and has contributed to our stable financial performance.

We operate mainly in the PRC with most of the transactions settled in Renminbi. Our management considers that the business is not exposed to any significant foreign exchange risk as there are no significant financial assets or liabilities of the Group denominated in currencies other than the respective functional currencies of our operating entities.

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, exchange gains and losses from those foreign currency transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency were insignificant and we did not hedge against any fluctuation in foreign currency.

USE OF PROCEEDS

With the Shares listed on the Stock Exchange on July 12, 2023, the net proceeds from the Global Offering were approximately HK$192.0 million after deducting underwriting commissions and offering expenses, which had been and will continue to be utilized for the purposes as set out in the Prospectus.

As of the Latest Practicable Date, there was no change in the intended use of net proceeds as previously disclosed in the section headed “Future Plans and Use of Proceeds” in the Prospectus (the “ Intended Use ”), and the Group will continue to utilize the net proceeds of the Global Offering in accordance with the Intended Use. To the extent that net proceeds are not immediately used for the intended use and to the extent permitted by the relevant law and regulations, the Company will place the net proceeds as short-term deposits, cash and cash equivalents only at licensed banks or financial institutions.

Overview

The following is a summary of the principal terms of the Pre-IPO Share Incentive Plans as approved and adopted by the Board, as amended from time to time. The Pre-IPO Share Incentive Plans are not subject to Chapter 17 of the Listing Rules and will not involve the grant of awards or options by our Company to subscribe for new shares after Listing. Since Listing, we have not made and will continue not to make any new grants of awards or options under the Pre-IPO Share Incentive Plans and the terms of the Pre-IPO Share Incentive Plans will not be subject to Chapter 17 of the Listing Rules.

As disclosed in the Prospectus, save for the 10,000 Shares underlie the options granted to a director of the Company remain to be issued, the Shares underlie the outstanding options granted under the Pre-IPO Share Incentive Plans have been issued to Calorie Partner Limited. Such 10,000 Shares, if fully issued, would have a nominal dilutive effect on our total issued share capital.

Purpose

The Pre-IPO Share Incentive Plans are adopted with a view to attracting and retaining the best available personnel for positions of substantial responsibility, to provide additional incentives to selected employees, directors, and consultants and to promote the success of our business by offering these individuals an opportunity to acquire a proprietary interest in the success of our Company or to increase their interest, by issuing them Shares or by permitting them to purchase Shares.

There are no options and awards available for grant under the Pre-IPO Share Incentive Plans upon Listing.

The maximum aggregate number of Shares which may be issued underlying all awards and options pursuant to the 2016 Plan is 35,536,640 Shares, and the maximum aggregate number of Shares which may be issued underlying all awards and options pursuant to the 2021 Plan is 25,108,660 Shares. As at the Latest Practicable Date, an aggregate of 16,867,850 Shares underlie options that remain outstanding under the Pre-IPO Share Incentive Plans, of which (a) 16,857,850 Shares were issued to Calorie Partner Limited, which are reserved for satisfying options granted to participants of our Pre-IPO Share Incentive Plans; and (b) 10,000 Shares remain to be issued and which underlie the options granted to our Director, Mr. Liu Dong.

CHAIRMAN AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER

Pursuant to code provision C.2.1 in Part 2 of the Corporate Governance Code, companies listed on the Stock Exchange are expected to comply with, but may choose to deviate from the requirement that the responsibilities between the chairperson and the chief executive officer should be segregated and should not be performed by the same individual.

The Board believes that vesting the roles of both chairperson and chief executive officer in the same person has the benefit of ensuring consistent leadership within the Group and enables more effective and efficient overall strategic planning for the Group. The Board considers that the balance of power and authority for the present arrangement will not be impaired and this structure will enable the Company to make and implement decisions promptly and effectively. The Board will continue to review and consider splitting the roles of chairperson of the Board and the chief executive officer of the Company if and when it is appropriate taking into account the circumstances of the Group as a whole.

The Company will continue to regularly review and monitor its corporate governance practices to ensure compliance with the Corporate Governance Code, and maintain a high standard of corporate governance practices of the Company.

We do not assume responsibility towards or accept liability to any other person for the contents of this report.

SCOPE OF REVIEW

We conducted our review in accordance with Hong Kong Standard on Review Engagements 2410 “Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity” issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (the “HKICPA”). A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Hong Kong Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

This condensed consolidated interim financial information for the six months ended June 30, 2024 has been reviewed, not audited.

2

BASIS OF PREPARATION

This unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial information for the six months ended June 30, 2024 has been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, “Interim financial reporting” issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (the “IASB”) and the applicable disclosures required by the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited.

This unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial information should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the Group for the year ended December 31, 2023, which have been prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards issued by the IASB. IFRS Accounting Standards comprise International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”); International Accounting Standards (“IAS”); and Interpretations. Except as described below, the accounting policies (including the significant judgements made by management in applying the Group’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty) and methods of computation used in the preparation of this unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial information are consistent with those used in the annual financial statements of the Group for the year ended December 31, 2023.

44

3 ADOPTION OF NEW AND REVISED IFRS ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

The Group has applied the following amendments for the first time from January 1, 2024:

  • Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current and Non-current Liabilities with Covenants – Amendments to IAS 1.

As a result of the adoption of the amendments to IAS 1, the Group changed its accounting policy for the classification of borrowings as below:

“Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless at the end of the reporting period, the Group has a right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period.”

This new policy did not result in a change in the classification of the Group’s borrowings. The Group did not make retrospective adjustments as a result of adopting the amendments to IAS 1.

Except for those as mentioned above, the Group did not change its accounting policies or make retrospective adjustments as a result of adopting other amended standards. The Group has not early adopted any of the forthcoming new or amended standards in preparing this unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial information.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

The carrying amounts of the Group’s financial assets and financial liabilities as reflected in the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of financial position approximate their respective fair values.

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The following disclosures of fair value measurements use a fair value hierarchy that categorizes into three levels the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value:

Level 1 inputs:

Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2 inputs:

Inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (that is, as prices) or indirectly (that is, derived from prices); and

Level 3 inputs:

Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (that is, unobservable inputs).

– Investment in an unlisted entity 13,519 13,519
Total 29,929 48,789 78,718

The Group’s policy is to recognise transfers into and transfers out of any of the three levels as of the date of the event or change in circumstances that caused the transfer. There were no transfers between level 1, 2 and 3 of fair value hierarchy classifications during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.

(a) Financial instruments in level 1

The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets is based on quoted market prices at each of the reporting dates. A market is regarded as active if quoted prices are readily and regularly available from an exchange, dealer, broker, industry group, pricing service, or regulatory agency, and those prices represent actual and regularly occurring market transactions on an arm’s length basis. The quoted market price used for financial assets held by the Group is the current bid price. These instruments are included in level 1.

46

4 FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT (CONTINUED)

(b) Financial instruments in level 2

The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined by using valuation techniques. These valuation techniques maximize the use of observable market data where it is available and rely as little as possible on entity specific estimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value of an instrument are observable, the instrument is included in level 2.

(c) Financial instruments in level 3

If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3.

Specific valuation techniques used to value financial instruments include:

  • Quoted market prices or dealer quotes for similar instruments;

  • Discounted cash flow model and unobservable inputs mainly including assumptions of expected future cash flows and discount rate; and

  • A combination of observable and unobservable inputs, including risk-free rate, expected volatility, discount rate for lack of marketability (“DLOM”), market multiples, etc.

At June 30, 2024, Level 3 instruments of the Group’s assets include investments in unlisted entities and investment in a private fund.

Investments in unlisted entities

On December 1, 2022, the Group acquired certain ordinary shares with preferential rights of one private company with consideration of RMB15,000,000 and measured the investment at financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. At June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company engaged a third-party valuation firm to manage the valuation of level 3 instruments of the unlisted entity for financial reporting purposes. The market approach method was used to determine the fair value of the investment in the unlisted entity. Unobservable inputs under market approach method included risk-free interest rate, DLOM and expected volatility. There were no changes in the valuation technique used.

Investments in unlisted entities (continued)

In April 2024 and June 2024, the Group acquired certain ordinary shares with preferential rights of other two private companies with consideration of RMB3,000,000 and RMB35,000,000, respectively. The investments were measured as financial assets at FVPL. The investment considerations were close to the fair values as at June 30, 2024.

Investment in a private fund

The Group’s private fund categories in Level 3 were managed by an independent fund manager who applied various investment strategies to accomplish their respective investment objectives. The fair value of the private fund at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 is recognized based on the valuation supplied by the fund manager. The valuation is measured by the percentage of ownership of the private fund’s net asset value, which is an unobservable input. The fund manager estimated the fair value of the underlying investments based on the direct market quote for level 1 financial instruments. For other investments, the fund manager applies appropriate valuation techniques such as latest transaction price, discounted cash flow, or any other appropriate valuation techniques suitable for the underlying investments. The models are calibrated regularly and tested using prices from any observable current market transactions in the same instruments or based on any available observable market data.

If the net assets value used to determine the fair value of the investment of a private fund had increased/ decreased by 10% with all other variables held constant, the estimated fair value changes from carrying amount are listed in below table:

The carrying amounts of the Group’s financial assets that are not measured at fair value, including cash and cash equivalents, short-term time deposits, accounts and notes receivables, other receivables included in prepayments and other current assets and the Group’s financial liabilities that are not measured at fair value, including borrowings, accounts payables, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, approximate their fair values due to their short maturities.

Keep Inc. Interim Report 2024 49

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Information

5 SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Group’s business activities, for which discrete financial information is available, are regularly reviewed and evaluated by the chief operating decision maker (the “CODM”). The CODM, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments, has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer that makes strategic decisions. The Group evaluated its operating segments separately or aggregately, and determined that it has reportable segments as follows:

  • Self-branded fitness products

  • Online membership and paid content

  • Advertising and others

The CODM assesses the performance of the operating segments mainly based on revenues and gross profit of each operating segment. Thus, segment result would present revenues, cost of revenues and gross profit, which is in line with CODM’s performance review.

The cost of revenues for the self-branded fitness products primarily consists of material costs, manufacturing cost and related costs that are directly attributable to the cost of products sold. The cost of revenues for the online membership and paid content primarily consists of payment channel fees paid to third-party application stores and other payment channels, content related cost, cost of virtual sports events and salaries and benefits paid to employees. The cost of revenues for the advertising and others primarily consists of advertising production cost.

The Company is domiciled in the Cayman Islands while the Group mainly operates its businesses in the PRC and earns substantially all of the revenues from external customers attributed to the PRC. As at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, substantially all of the non-current assets of the Group were located in the PRC. Therefore, no geographical segments are presented.

There were no material inter-segment sales during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. The revenues from external customers reported to the CODM are measured in a manner consistent with that applied in the condensed consolidated statement of profit or loss.

10 (LOSS)/EARNINGS PER SHARE (CONTINUED)

(b) Diluted loss per share

Diluted loss per share is calculated by adjusting the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding to assume conversion of all dilutive potential ordinary shares.

As the Company incurred loss for the six months ended June 30, 2024, the potential ordinary share was not included in the calculation of diluted loss per share as their inclusion would be anti-dilution. Accordingly, the amount of diluted loss per share for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was the same as basic loss per share.

The diluted loss per share for the six months ended June 30, 2023 is as follows:

Note a: Investments in wealth management products were the investment products purchased from international financial institutions. The returns on all of these products and the returns on a private fund are not guaranteed, hence their contractual cash flows do not qualify for solely payments of principal and interest. Therefore, they are measured as financial assets at FVPL. The Group classified current and non-current assets based on the expiration date or lockup period of the products and the private fund.

Note b: The Group acquired certain ordinary shares with preferential rights of several unlisted entities representing no more than 20% equity interest of each unlisted entity. The Group has the right to require and demand the above unlisted entities to redeem all of the shares held by the Group upon redemption events which are out of control of the issuers. The investments are measured as financial assets at FVPL. The Group has no plans to sell the investments in one year, and classified those investments as non-current assets.
