spk03: Thank you, Wendy. Hello, everyone, and thank you all for your time. I'm pleased to share that we continue to achieve success in executing our plans. In the second quarter of 2024, Baozhong Group achieved a 3% -over-year revenue growth, reflecting our ongoing efforts to strengthen our core operations and adapt to the evolving market landscape. BEC has shown solid momentum, with top-line returning to growth after 10 consecutive quarters of a -over-year contraction. We are encouraged to see a turning point that highlights our effective revitalization efforts in both services and product sales. Notably, we successfully integrated Location, a top Douyin partner, into Baozhong's live-streaming business unit. This is a strategic breakthrough as it strengthens our position within the Douyin ecosystem and further enhances our omni-channel value proposition. BBM is narrowing its losses while accelerating its stall expansion and fine-tuning the unit economics of new stores. We are seeing better performance from our new stores, which gives us confidence in further expansion in these markets. This progress was achieved despite the top-line pressure BBM is facing from cautious consumer sentiment. Additionally, in light of GAP's strong global trend, we have deepened our interactions with GAP Inc. and developed plans to better leverage this trend and its global resources. Our aim is to balance these resources with our localization efforts to drive growth. This quarter, Baozhong technology is once again being recognized for excellence, receiving another prestigious Garner-Web Award in -to-Consumer Solutions. High-level for the Chinese market, our DTC solutions offer a comprehensive commerce platform that is secure, scalable, and flexible. This award underscores our ability to build innovative solutions for brands' private domains, empowering their further growth. On the ESG front, we continue to advance our commitment to sustainability. During the quarter, two of our logistic parks were certified as carbon neutral, and we also partnered with Nike on an innovative shoe recycling program. Through these efforts, we are not only reducing our carbon footprint, but also setting industry standards and making a positive contribution to environmental protection. With the improving momentum in e-commerce and a continued focus on strengthening BBM's fundamentals, we remain fully committed to our strategic transformation. Looking ahead, we are confident in our ability to drive further growth and deliver long-term value to our shareholders. Now let me pass this to Katherine for financial updates.
spk07: Thanks Vincent, and hello everyone. Now let me share with you our second quarter 2024 financial results in more detail. Please turn to slide number three. BaoZhun Group's total net revenues increased by 3% -over-year to $2.4 billion. Of this, e-commerce revenue contributed $2.1 billion while brand management generated $294 million. Breaking down the e-commerce revenue by business model, service revenue increased by 10% to $1.6 billion in the quarter. This growth was primarily driven by a double-digit -over-year increase in revenue from store operations in apparel and accessories category, as well as from digital marketing and IT solutions BC product sales revenue continued to show progress with -over-year construction narrowing by 4% to $559 million. With the business optimization nearly complete and the ramp-up of our newly introduced exclusive distribution business, we are on track to return to growth in our BC product sales in the second half of 2024. CVM product sales totaled $292 million for the quarter, a -over-year decline of 10% compared with the same period of last year. The contraction was mainly due to weaker consumption sentiment in the fashion apparel industry and the can will elaborate more later. Please turn to slide number four. From a profitability perspective, our growth margin for e-commerce product sales was .7% for the quarter. The decrease in growth margin for e-commerce product sales was mainly due to a change in category mix and a higher proportion of cash rebates from brand partners compared with more weight on procurement rebates in the same period of last year. Growth margin for BBM totaled 52.3%, while our group's blended growth margin for product sales was 25.3%. Now to bottom line items. Please turn to slide number five. During the quarter, our adjusted income from operations totaled $10 million compared with $1 million a year ago. This included an adjusted operating profit of $60 million from e-commerce segment and a reduced operating loss of $50 million from BBM. As of June 30, 2024, we maintained a steady balance in cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and short-term investments totaling $2.9 billion in line with balance in the previous quarter. Lastly, we continued to execute our share repurchase program. Here today, we have repurchased approximately $2 million ADS for $4.9 million through the market, reflecting our confidence in the company's future. As of today, the remaining amount of board authorizations for share repurchase program, which is effective through January 2025, stands at $15 million. Let me now pass the call over to Arthur to update you on BEC, our e-commerce business.
spk02: Thank you, Vincent and Catherine. And hello, everyone. Now let's review the BEC business performance for the second quarter of 2024. Please turn to slide number six. Despite the challenging microeconomic environment and slowing down of e-commerce growth in China, BEC delivered good results in the second quarter this year. Total revenue growth turned positive for the first time since 2022. Increasing by 6% year on year. This growth was primarily driven by a strong performance in our service business during the 618 campaign and stabilization of our product sales business. In the second quarter, BEC's service business grew by 10%, driven by strong performances across key categories of sports and fashion apparel. Notably, during the 618 shopping festival, traditional marketplaces such as T-Mall resumed growth, with especially strong momentum in all store and sportswear. As a result, BEC achieved double digit GMV growth for all the brands we operate during the campaign, significantly outpacing overall market performance. In terms of the channel performance, Douyin experienced exceptional growth in this quarter following the successful integration of our newly acquired location business. Now contributing over 5% of our BEC revenue with triple digit year over year growth. Little Red Book related revenue also achieved a triple digit growth from a low base, showing good potential to become another growth driver for BEC. We believe that these two live streaming and content based platforms not only provide brands with a new sales channel, but also allow them to conduct more effective brand marketing to build their brand image. In addition to our offerings on Douyin and Little Red Book, we further enhanced our services in digital marketing, IT systems and logistics, underpinned by our recent investments in data and technology. During the quarter, we engaged with a large i5CG client to revamp its order management system. In terms of logistics, we onboarded a world leading outdoor brand to provide a comprehensive B2B logistics and warehousing solution in China. Our expansion of service capabilities helps us to extend and strengthen our relationship with existing clients and provides us with a competitive edge when acquiring new clients. As a result, our new business development efforts delivered strong performance with over 30 new wins this quarter. Our existing client renewal rate reached a historical high at 95% in the first half of this year, ensuring our future revenue stability and potential growth. Now let's turn to product sales business. During the quarter, BEC's product sales business has reached the end of our rationalization process, with only a single digit decline year on year. The revenue was impacted by weak performance of the small appliance and electronics category during the 618 campaign, which was offset by strong performances in the beauty and health care categories. We also continued to add new brands under the exclusive distribution model, where we joined a higher growth margin with full control over sales and marketing activities. This quarter, we signed an agreement with the UK kitchenware brand Joseph & Joseph to become the exclusive distributor in China. Overall, our exclusive distribution brands have achieved good momentum in the initial phase, and we anticipate further improvement in revenue and profitability following the ramp-up period. Lastly, to enhance bottom-line performance, we continue to drive cost optimization and efficiency improvements through lean and Six Sigma projects. This quarter, we rolled out Six Sigma trainings to more frontline staff, combined with upgrading our lean operation system and increasing the adaptation of AIGC tools. We also completed a project to integrate our business processes, systems, and operations among our group companies, including the integration of the newly acquired location business. In 2024, we expect to complete over 100 lean and Six Sigma efficiency projects, which are projected to deliver a financial benefit of more than $20 million. In the first half of this year, we continued our strategic plan to turn around the BEC business and successfully deliver financial performance in line with our expectations. We are confident that this strategy will help us achieve our full-year target and transform the BEC business back to growth in a sustainable and profitable manner. Now I will pass to Ken for an update on BBM.
spk04: Thank you, Gene, and thank you all. It's my great pleasure to speak with you. Please turn to slide number seven for additional updates on BBM. During the second quarter, weak consumption segment led to a double-digit decline in retail traffic, particularly in fashion apparel segment. Despite the headwinds, we advanced our localization strategy by fine-tuning the customer experience, improving conversion rates, and expanding our offline network. We also implemented cost optimization initiatives to further reduce expenses. As a result of these efforts, we were able to narrow BBM's total revenue to a 9% -over-year decline and achieved a 70% -over-year improvement in our adjusted operating loss for the quarter. In the 18 months since taking over GiveChina operations, we have embarked on a strategy to move away from perpetual discounts by enhancing product design, segmentation, and supply chain efficiency. This quarter we enriched our core categories, such as T-shirt by introducing functional features such as quick dry, cooling, and sweat absorption. Overall, despite the weak consumption environment, we maintained a healthy growth margin of .3% for the quarter. We also accelerated the pace of our offline network expansion by opening nine new stores, resulting in a net increase of two stores and bringing our total to 126 stores. In addition to opening new locations in tier one cities such as Shanghai and Guangzhou, we also entered several new tier one and tier two cities, including Changsha, Xi'an, Shenyang, and Guiyang. Leveraging insights gained from traffic and consumer feedback, we have continued to refine our store experience and site location tactics. We focused on quality neighborhood locations and high traffic areas, with an average new store size of 500 to 600 square meters and a higher store inventory capacity to increase sales efficiency. Additionally, we introduced an expansion strategy in collaboration with local partners in second tier cities, allowing us to leverage local resources and enhance investment efficiency for further expansion. The new store openings have exceeded our expectations. It's encouraging that the new stores in Guiyang, Dolphin Plaza, and Shenyang Joy City are generating unique sales and profits higher than average. The early success of these stores also boosts our confidence in market potential of these emerging locations. We aim to continue strengthening our presence, tapping into new markets, and capitalizing on emerging growth opportunities. Overall, we are on track with our target to open more than 50 stores for full year 2024. After accounting for our proactive optimization and the natural retirement of some existing leases, this expansion will increase our offline network by more than 5% in space footage compared to the end of last year. Recently, we have also deepened our interaction with Gap Inc. and developed plans to better leverage the brand's upward trend and global resources across product development, supply chain, merchandising, and marketing. Both sides see positive long-term opportunities for casual style in China, and we aim to closely collaborate to balance our localization efforts with Gap's global themes. Our store displays now emphasize categories and stylish outfits to create larger themes, highlighting Gap's three key categories, denim, khakis, and sweatshirts. I'm happy to report that despite the current macro challenges, our fine-tuning initiatives have led to positive sales growth in August. With the improved customer experience and the growing contribution from new stores, we expect our top line will return to growth in the second half of 2024. In summary, as we enter the next phase of our BBM journey, our focus has expanded to include the top line growth while safeguarding margins. Although we have observed a slower recovery in consumer products and products, we remain committed to executing our strategic plans. Our goal is to build a profitable business that appeals to mass market families in China by delivering localized products that align with Gap DNA of casual and quality. We invite you to follow our progress. That concludes our prepared remarks. Thank you. Operator, we are now ready to begin the Q&A session.
spk01: Thank you. We will now begin the question and answer session. To ask a question, you may press star then 1 on your telephone keypad. If you are using a speakerphone, please pick up your handset before pressing the keys. If at any time your question has been addressed and you would like to withdraw your question, please press star then 2. Once again, it is star then 1 to ask a question. At this time, we will pause momentarily to assemble our roster.
spk07: Once again,
spk01: thank you. The first question comes from Thomas Chong with Jeffreys. Please go ahead.
spk05: Thanks for taking my question. My question is about the recent consumer sentiment and expectations for a TMO and a non-TMO. How do we see the competition of e-commerce segments in the second half of the year and any thoughts on the upcoming W11?
spk02: Thanks. Thank you for the question. I think first of all, from the first half of the year, we have seen a recovery in terms of the TMO growth compared with last year. Although the growth rate is slowing down, it still has a double-digit growth. We think this trend will continue through to the second half of the year. Another trend we have seen is the emergence of the true omnichannel operation for e-commerce. For example, some potential channels like the Little Red Book or Quaishou, they all attract more attention from the brand. A big portion of our brand is operating on a full channel basis online instead of one single channel. For W11, what we anticipate is the W11 will start earlier than last year and the duration will be longer based on our experience in the 6.18. Also, the planning is more complex, which creates a value-added opportunity for Bouldron to help our brand partner to be successful. Internally, we have already started the planning process for W11. We think with our help, we can replicate the good performance we have delivered in 6.18.
spk01: The next question comes from Jarvis Ying from CITIC. Please go ahead.
spk10: Good evening, management. Thanks for taking my question. Congrats on the solid quarter. And I have two questions. The first is that recently we have seen some e-commerce platforms shifted from price competition to GMV growth. Does this trend influence the advertising strategy of the brands operated by Bouldron? And my second question is that we have seen a good performance of GAP Global this year. So can management share some details about the future trend of GAP fashion design? And will Bouldron consider introducing more global style? Thank you.
spk02: Okay. So for the first one, in terms of the returning to the GMV focus, I think that's a good opportunity for Bouldron because for the large-scale brands we operate, that's a good news for us as all the platforms, especially T-Mall, now give more attention to the big brands, the big international brands we operate. So we think that's a positive sign for us. Now about the GAP, can I pass on to Ken?
spk04: Yes, it's true. We also see GAP Global's performance is quite well. And we also see GAP is investing a lot on their new design products and marketing. So we do plan to increase our global adoption of GAP Global products. But we will do it by season, based on the market feedback. So to make sure our strategy change will have a positive impact to our financials. So I think it includes three parts. First is we will adopt GAP's Global products, which is successfully launched in the global market and which also has a very good cost. And the second is we will adopt their designs by using localized fabrics, fittings, and the details such as color trend in order to meet Chinese customers' needs. And the third one is we will continue to expand our self-development on some special categories and also in local IP collaborations, in able to maximize our self-designed product sales potential. Thank you.
spk10: Thank you.
spk01: The next question comes from Wang Jiao with CICC. Please go ahead.
spk08: Hi. Thank you for taking my questions. I have two questions. The first one is we have observed that you have been engaged in share repurchasing in recent quarters. Could you please share your outlook on the future share repurchase and long-term plans for shareholder return? My second question is could you please share some new changes in the services provided to foreign partners such as the progress of creative content to commerce? Thank you.
spk03: Thank you for your question. This is Vincent. I'll take the first one and then also we will answer the second question. Yes, we are continuing doing the share repurchase. In the visible future, we will maintain this pace and trying to scare and give a good chance for the investors for their benefits. In the future, of course, the shareholder's benefit is also very important for us. Not only the share repurchase but the other things like we will strive for better performance of each category of our business and try to turn around the whole business to positive this year and also the BBM holistically next year. All this we think are very essential parts of shareholder returns. We also will develop the synergy between the business units like BBM and also DEC trying to innovatively deliver some new services and solutions for existing 400 clients to create new value for them in the future. That is basically our thoughts in delivering good returns for shareholders. Then answer for the second one.
spk02: Okay. For the second one, as you have seen, we delivered a 10% -over-year growth on the service revenue. That was underpinned mainly by improving the service quality and also expanding the service scope we are providing to our clients. As you mentioned, the client is moving to an -many-channel model at the moment. With our data and technology, we can provide a true -many-channel solution including all the different channels and how to operate on those channels. That is greatly appreciated by our clients, especially at the current moment that increase the competition from all the channels and making the e-commerce landscape very complex. Our clients need us to help them through the service to drive the sales online. In terms of the creative content parts of the business, for this quarter, we have successfully integrated location business, which we recently acquired. The outcome is very good because we combined the creativity and the innovation of a small entrepreneurial business like location with the very efficient foundation of the group as a whole to really unleash the potential of the location business. That part of the business has grown triple digits during this quarter. Our outlook is very on that path. Thank you.
spk01: Thank you. Again, if you have a question, please press star then one. The next question comes from Alicia Yap with Citi. Please go ahead.
spk08: Hi, thank you. Good evening, management. Thanks for taking my questions. Two questions. First is, can management comment and share if there's any of these reasons intensify competitive landscape among the e-commerce player in China might have affected or even benefited Baozhun given our relatively more diversified exposure to both the T-Mall and the -T-Mall channels? Then second question is, can management also share your view in terms of some of the latest consumption trend into the second half, especially if you are wondering if you have seen the improvement in the gap of line store traffic? Then for your online business, based on your conversation with the brands, just wondering how do you expect your digital marketing solution revenue and the housing business might trend in the second half? Thank you.
spk02: Okay, thank you, Alicia. It's Arthur. I will take the first half of the question and then I pass on to Ken to comment on the gap part. I think it's a good question in terms of the intensified competition landscape impact. I would say intensification definitely will lead to some issues like higher return rate and more discount being offered. On the other hand, those change and competition has definitely offered an opportunity for Baozhun and I think the impact is more positive than negative for a few reasons. Number one, I think the -mini-channel capability for Baozhun is our strength and is supported by our investment into the technology over the last 10 years. That competitive advantage is very difficult to be replicated by our competitor. That's what we believe under this kind of situation. We will stand out as a good company to offer a good service to our clients. Secondly, given the different EC platforms start to compete with each other and they introduce a lot of new rules and new ways of operating, the advisory role of Baozhun is becoming more important to our clients. We can use this opportunity to work more closely with our clients to define the overall EC strategy instead of just to be an operator for one single channel. Thirdly, this also strength Baozhun's position in the middle of the brand and platform. In the first half of the year, we have been approached by quite a few of the EC platforms who want to collaborate with Baozhun to innovate together for the client. They would like to know what the client really needs. Given the more than 400 clients we've been dealing with, that gives us a good position to work closely with the platform to innovate together. Because of this, I think the competition is definitely creating a lot of challenges, but I think there's more opportunity for Baozhun. Thank you. On the gap one, I will have to cap.
spk04: For the traffic question, actually it's improving, especially in August. We are going to have a sales YY increase in August and we also expect for the second half we will have a YY increase in the gap sales. I think talking about this traffic question, I think it's quite different in different cities, different malls and all the destination neighborhood stores. I think the opportunity to gap, because compared to other competitors, gaps still have a big room and flexibility to optimize our channels. We will continue to take advantage of this opportunity in the second half to optimize our store locations. Make sure we are opening our new stores in good locations with good traffic and also have our sales growth in the next year. Thank you.
spk01: The next question comes from Jack Ho with Hortite Securities. Please go ahead.
spk09: Okay, thanks management for taking my question. I have a question also regarding the competition. So with intensified competition in the e-commerce sector, we have seen e-commerce platforms are continuously paying efforts on merchant support and efficiency improvement. For example, the launch of marketing tools of Transientway on almost all e-commerce platforms. So what management feel on the core competitiveness and the barrier in the next stage development? Thank you.
spk02: Okay, thank you for the question. It's Arthur here. I think there are a couple of areas we would like to build our competitive advantage. First one is our focus on our customer, our client. So basically, since 2022, we launched the NPS program, the Net Promote Score program, with the aim to offer a good service, a stable service to our clients. And as a result, we have done a good job in terms of improving the renewal rate of our clients. At the same time, we enhanced our service to our customers underpinned by our investment in technology and data. So that, for me, is our whole competitiveness and the current kind of the market situation. So that's number one. Number two is looking internally, we start to launch a lot of lean program, aiming at improving our operation efficiency. That will give us a lot of competitive advantage from a cost perspective. On one hand, we offer a good service. On the other hand, that service is being offered in an affordable and good value from a financial perspective to our client. And that gave us ability to acquire more market share under the current environment. And finally, the third one is our recent push into the good quality, the high quality product sales business and the introduction of the exclusive distribution business model. And we believe the exclusive distribution model can give us more scope to operate and to leverage our strengths in terms of e-commerce and marketing and digital. And we would like to operate as a digital enhanced distributor for the global brand in China. And given the current situation in the market, we believe this will be another driver for our business. Thank
spk01: you. The next question comes from Johanna Ma with the MBI. Please go ahead.
spk08: Thank you. Hi, Lydwin. Thank you for taking my question. Two questions here. The first one is about, can Lydwin share some updates on your observation of the PTT consumption trend and your outlook for the second half? Will there be any adjustments on our business strategy related to this? And another question is for our BBM business, how should we think about the loose reduction trajectory amid the current macro backdrop? And regarding the long-term growth strategy, can Lydwin share with us your investment plan or key priorities on investment to drive for long-term growth? Thank you.
spk02: Okay. I will answer the first one and I will pass on to Ken to comment on the second one. I think the first one in terms of the trend for the quarter consumption, the overall trend is still weak due to the cautious kind of disbanding by the overall consumers and also that being impacted by the wider microeconomic environment. Having said that, I think when we're looking at the 618 performance, the brands we supported to carefully planning the campaign and can also steal a good growth momentum. So for example, the brands we operated during the 618 has delivered a double-digit growth year over year. So even though the market is a little bit soft, but if we do well, we can still find opportunity to grow.
spk04: Okay. For the second question, regarding the current macro backdrop, I think from our point of view, we see actually an opportunity for GAP's business because GAP is targeting a mass market and currently we see the mass market trend is still okay. And as mentioned before, it's also an opportunity for us to optimize our channels, our stores. So on one hand, we will continue to keep our cost optimization actions. And on the other hand, we will still continue to improve our products, including adopting more products from GAP Global's successful experiences and invest our brands in new tier one and the second year cities to boost ourselves in our market and the target audience. So we are optimistic on our progress of GAP's financial targets, three years business plan.
spk03: Yeah. For the long-term strategy and also the investment salts, this is Vincent to share some of our salts. And despite the challenge for the macro economy, I think based on solid efforts, our long-term growth will be driven by three things. First is the BEC's growth and then BBM's growth and then synergy in between. So we are happy to see that although the environment is very challenging, but the BEC in the first half already turned back to growth. It's a very happy thing to see. And then we see that BBM here is also very confident to be back on track on growth for the second half of the year. So it's a very good thing to see. And for the key priorities for investment, I think there are several key words. First one will be cautious because we need to make GAP a hunter to acquire brands to be very successful. And then the macro economy is not very optimistic in the visible second half of this year. So we need to be cautious. Second, cautious doesn't mean do nothing. We're still looking for good opportunities. We will do it with caution. That is the second one. And the third thought will be we need to maintain the very healthy financial positions of Bazung as a group because this is very important in today's environment. And the number four is that we need to have a very strong capability because when we want to invest, we need the financial resources, but we also need a very strong team to integrate the target business into our core business, just like we did successfully for location integration. So that is the key ideas when we think about the long-term growth and also investment strategies. Thank you.
spk08: Thank
spk01: you. This concludes our question and answer session. I would like to turn the conference back over to Wendy soon for any closing remarks.
spk06: Thank you, operator. On behalf of Bazung Management team, we would like to thank you for your participation in today's call. If you require any further information, feel free to reach out to us. Thank you for joining us today. This concludes the call.
spk01: The conference has now concluded. Thank you for attending today's presentation. You may now disconnect.
