AI is still a dominant driver for our revenue growth and this quarter our gross billing of AI business increased by over 120% year-over-year to RMB728.7 million, accounting for 44.8% of our public cloud services. As AI technology enabler, we provide turnkey solutions to customers from computing resources, PaaS platforms to applications. Meanwhile, we have maintained our healthy cooperation with Xiaomi – Kingsoft Ecosystem, evidenced by a 69.5% year-over-year revenue growth to reach RMB628.9 million from ecosystem customers this quarter and reach RMB1,125.0 million in the first half, representing a 40% completion of the continued connected transaction cap amount in the first half of 2025.

Our adjusted gross profit was RMB350.6 million, which increased by 8.4% year-over-year and 7.0% quarter-over-quarter. Adjusted gross margin was 14.9% in this quarter, compared with 17.1% in the second quarter 2024 and 16.6% in the first quarter this year. The decrease was primarily due to the higher cost of servers along with the expansion of our AI business, and the upfront costs incurred for certain customers for its future revenue activity. Our adjusted EBITDA profit achieved RMB406.0 million, increased by 570.1% year-over-year. Our adjusted EBITDA margin of 17.3%, increased by 14.1 percentage points, demonstrating our optimized revenue structure and a strong costs and expenses control.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial information is prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). In evaluating our business, we consider and use certain non-GAAP measures, Non-GAAP gross profit, Non-GAAP gross margin, Non-GAAP operating loss, Non-GAAP operating loss margin, Non-GAAP EBITDA, Non-GAAP EBITDA margin, Non-GAAP net loss and Non-GAAP net loss margin, as supplemental measures to review and assess our 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. We define Non-GAAP gross profit as gross profit excluding share-based compensation allocated in the cost of revenues, and we define Non-GAAP gross margin as Non-GAAP gross profit as a percentage of revenues. We define Non-GAAP operating loss as operating loss excluding share-based compensation and amortization of intangible assets and we define Non-GAAP operating loss margin as Non-GAAP operating loss as a percentage of revenues. We define Non-GAAP net loss as net loss excluding share-based compensation and foreign exchange loss (gain), and we define Non-GAAP net loss margin as Non-GAAP net loss as a percentage of revenues. We define Non-GAAP EBITDA as Non-GAAP net loss excluding interest income, interest expense, income tax expense (benefit) and depreciation and amortization, and we define Non-GAAP EBITDA margin as Non-GAAP EBITDA as a percentage of revenues. We present these non-GAAP financial measures because they are used by our management to evaluate our operating performance and formulate business plans. We also believe that the use of these non-GAAP measures facilitates investors’ assessment of our operating performance.

These non-GAAP financial measures are not defined under U.S. GAAP and are not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools. One of the key limitations of using these non-GAAP financial measures is that they do not reflect all items of income and expense that affect our operations. Further, these non-GAAP measures may differ from the non-GAAP information used by other companies, including peer companies, and therefore their comparability may be limited.

We compensate for these limitations by reconciling these non-GAAP financial measures to the nearest U.S. GAAP performance measure, all of which should be considered when evaluating our performance. We encourage you to review our financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.

Exchange Rate Information

This press release contains translations of certain RMB amounts into U.S. dollars at specified rates solely for the convenience of readers. Unless otherwise noted, all translations from RMB to U.S. dollars, in this press release, were made at a rate of RMB7.1636 to US$1.00, the noon buying rate in effect on June 30, 2025 as certified for customs purposes by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.
