Mr. Wei Wen, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of TuanChe, commented, “During the third quarter of 2019, we continued to bolster our core auto show business, accelerate the development of our online marketing services, and cultivate additional collaboration opportunities with strategic partners to drive long-term growth. Facing the continuing macroeconomic and industry-wide headwinds, we adopted a more prudent expansion strategy to optimize the efficiency of our geographic coverage and refine our cost structures. We also made headway in the development of our special promotion events, which have become an integral component of our current growth strategy. Going forward, we plan to continue leveraging our in-depth automotive domain expertise, proven transaction facilitation capabilities, and highly-appealing value propositions for both OEMs and auto dealers. Although the adverse market conditions will continue to impact our financial and operating performances in the near-term, we are confident that our ongoing efforts to fortify our position as the leading omni-channel sales platform and cultivate additional revenue streams will assure our growth prospects in the long term.”

Mr. Zhihai Mao, Chief Financial Officer of TuanChe, stated, “Hampered by the underwhelming performance of China’s automotive market in 2019, net revenues in the third quarter decreased by 12.7% year over year to RMB135.6 million. However, despite this temporary setback, we have actively taken measures to reposition our business and bolster our growth prospects for the long-term. As part of these efforts, for example, we cultivated new growth drivers, such as our special promotion events and online marketing services. As a result, during the quarter, service fees generated from our special promotion events increased to RMB6.0 million while virtual dealership, online marketing services and other revenues increased to RMB5.9 million, compared to RMB1.7 million in the prior year period. Looking ahead, we expect industry headwinds to persist, continuing to impact our financial performance throughout the remainder of 2019. However, we remain confident that our market-leading position, growing network coverage, new business initiatives, and prudent cost and expense structures have laid the foundation for our growth in the long term.”

Recent Business Developments

On October 21, 2019, the Company announced that it had signed a strategic partnership with Tmall Auto, the automotive arm of Alibaba Group’s (NYSE: BABA) Tmall, China's largest e-commerce platform for brands and retailers. This partnership will further enable both TuanChe and Tmall Auto to collaborate and explore additional growth opportunities throughout the entirety of China’s automotive transaction value chain.

Moreover, Tmall Auto will work with TuanChe to integrate its online resources, e-commerce infrastructure, and big data analysis capabilities with TuanChe’s expansive national coverage and proven track record managing both offline automotive operations and sales events. Both companies plan to jointly integrate a new data-driven, smart, online-to-offline automotive transaction service while further expanding each other’s customer bases and enhancing the car-purchasing experience for consumers.

Safe Harbor Statement
This announcement contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and as defined in the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, the Company’s business plans and development as well as business outlook, which can be identified by terminology such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “aim,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “potential,” “continue,” “is/are likely to” or other similar expressions. Such statements are based upon management’s current expectations and current market and operating conditions, and relate to events that involve known or unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond the Company’s control. Further information regarding these and other risks, uncertainties or factors is included in the Company’s filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company does not undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statement as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required under law.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement the Company’s condensed consolidated quarterly financial information which are presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company also uses adjusted net loss, adjusted net loss per share and adjusted EBITDA as additional non-GAAP financial measures. The Company presents these non-GAAP financial measures because they are used by the Company’s management to evaluate its operating performance. The Company also believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating the Company’s consolidated results of operations in the same manner as its management and in comparing financial results across accounting periods and to those of the Company’s peer companies.

The Company defines adjusted net income/loss as net loss excluding the impact of fair value loss of warrant, share-based compensation expenses and impairment of investment. The Company defines adjusted net income/loss per share as adjusted net income/ loss divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares. The Company defines adjusted EBITDA as net profit/loss excluding the impact of depreciation and amortization, interest (expenses)/income, net, fair value loss of warrant, share-based compensation expenses and impairment of investment. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating the Company’s operating results. These non-GAAP financial measures adjust for the impact of items that the Company does not consider indicative of the operational performance of the Company’s business and should not be considered in isolation or construed as an alternative to net loss or any other measure of performance or as an indicator of the Company’s operating performance.

In addition, the non-GAAP financial measures are not defined under U.S. GAAP and are not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The 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 the Company’s operations. Interest income or expenses, depreciation and amortization, fair value loss of warrant , share-based compensation expenses and impairment of investment have been and may continue to be incurred in the Company’s business and are not reflected in the presentation of these non-GAAP measures. Further, these non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. Other companies may calculate similarly titled measures differently, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures to the Company’s data. The Company encourages investors and others to review the Company’s financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure. Investors are encouraged to compare the historical non-GAAP financial measures with the most directly comparable GAAP measures.
