I'm Jinglin, CEO of the J.D. House. It's a pleasure to share our 2024 four-year results. 2024 was the year of steady growth for JD Health. On the macro level, China's health industry has continued to grow in scale. According to the data released by the National Bureau of Statistics, the average per capita medical and health consumption expenditure in China was RMB 2,574 for seven in 2024, up 6.3.6% year-over-year, accounting for 9% of the total per capita consumption expenditure In the outline of the Health China 2013 plan, the scale of China's health service industry will reach around $16 trillion by 2030. As public awareness of health management devices and disposable income increases, health consumption has become a major driver of China's consumption growth. Health consumption is no longer discretionary but increasingly becoming a rigid demand. the expanding demand for health consumption is energizing the entire market and locking its potential. During this process, as an industry-leading healthcare service provider, JDH has been at the forefront of creating new online and offline consumption models to meet people's increasingly diverse health needs. While closely following national policy directives, We have steadily advanced our business development, achieving high-quality robust growth in revenue and our bottom line. Most importantly, as an active practitioner of the Healthy China 2030 initiative and the industrial leader, we've consistently integrated our commercial value with Seattle industry and user value, continuously promoting technology applications and service innovations to accelerate implementation of inclusive healthcare. The two sessions are now underway. Many proposals involving healthcare have attracted widespread attention, which will no doubt provide a powerful push for industry growth. Meanwhile, the application of innovative technologies represented by large language models has brought in the industry's future prospects. Driven by national policies, market demands, and technological developments, we will build on our strengths and deepen our focus on achieving high-quality development. In this way, we will create sustainable commercial value for our shareholders while giving back to society and our users. Now, I'd like to share our business highlights for 2024, followed by discussion of our business outlook for 2025. Now, let me walk you through our business development in 2024 across three primary areas. First, we solidify our B2C leadership and accelerate our omnichannel initiatives. In 2024, we deepen our efforts to deepen our omnichannel initiatives, generating greater value at the first entry point for online healthcare consumption. To begin with, we continue to cement our leadership in the B2C sector. For instance, in the pharmaceuticals and other core categories, our growth rate exceeds that of our major peers, both online and offline, despite the high commercial base. Thanks to our strong supply chain management capacities, rich product offerings, and excellent user experience, furthermore, we have observed that users' pharmaceutical needs are changing, with increasing demand for imported or original drugs. anti-flu medications, and other innovative treatments. These emerging trends have not only provided us with lots of growth opportunities, but have also motivated us to continue innovating and enhancing our user experiences. While solidifying our advantages in the B2C business, we've also actively developed our omni-channel operations. For instance, we consistently increase the investments in on-demand retail and proactively responded to health policy guidance by enabling real-time online insurance reimbursement for medical purchases in multiple provinces and municipalities, making us the first among our peers to induce this feature. Our service allows more people in more cities to enjoy medical insurance reimbursement for drug purchase from the comfort of their homes. Additionally, in our newly opened JD Pharmacy offline stores, we followed on providing exceptional service with no upselling by store staff. or hidden pricing strategies. We have launched our first service drug dispenser in Beijing, helping the GDH on the trust of more users. Second, we'll build an internet-based healthcare service innovation benchmark and accelerate the integration of online and offline services. In 2004, we remained committed to our aspirations and continued to invest in health service innovations, making us one of the few players in the industry to do so. As such, we lead the direction. Over the last year, we've successfully completed significant service integration innovation, pioneering first-level consultation, examination, and diagnosis from a surgical close-up model. The entire patient process from online consultation with doctors to rapid at-home testing to doctor diagnosis and prescriptions. The final home drug service and delivery can be efficiently completed online through a service framework centered on JD Health Online Hospital. This new service model has dramatically improved improved convenience and over-experience. Of course, the model's success is all the result of our increased investments in in-store and home. Furthermore, we officially opened the J.D. House J.A. Town Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic and specialized clinics offering orthopedic and massage therapy services, as well as several offline examinations and polyclinic centers. To date, we have built a comprehensive professional medical service matrix some passing doctors, pharmacists, and nurses. Whether users are seeking online consultations, install medical assistance, or at-home care. Our service matrix enables them to enjoy comprehensive professional and compassionate health services with a human touch. Third, we lead large language multiplication innovations and facilitate implementation of inclusive healthcare. Earlier this year, around the Chinese New Year holiday, DIPC sparked widespread public interest in AI. Of course, for the healthcare industry, AI application is not just an elective but a required course. In fact, JDH has already become the first online healthcare platform to apply large language models on the grand scale. Covering the full spectrum of healthcare service scenarios for customers, doctors, hospitals, and businesses. Our gene-intentioned large-language model is the largest model with most doctors involved. They deal with hospital collaborations and the broadest user trial participation. Building on this foundation, we launched the AI Gen E, a full suite of AI-powered tools for online healthcare scenarios, and JoyDoc, the industry's first AI solution for full-scale hospital applications at the beginning of 2025. With AIG, we aim to provide more intelligent tools for online licensed doctors facilitating quality and efficiency enhancement in their online consultations and day-to-day scientific research. On the other hand, the JoyDoc helps hospitals optimize patient care workflows, enhance doctors' clinical research efficiency, and alleviate the overall hospital operations. For 2025, we will focus on several key areas. First, we will continue to strengthen our B2C direct sales plus online marketplace plus on-demand retail operational model for the summoning of leadership in the healthcare retail market. Our goal is to reinforce users' awareness of JD Health as a go-to platform for online healthcare products and services. of the JD Online Health Better Services while propelling the development of our at-home and in-store service models. These will better integrate online offline scenarios and resources, providing patients with more professional and convenient one-stop medical experience. Lastly, I'd like to emphasize technological innovations. At JD Health, we are committed to applying technology in real-world healthcare scenarios to generate tangible value. As such, we will deepen our focus on scenario-driven application of large-range models, ensuring AI creates practical value across the healthcare sector and driven the AI-powered transformation of the entire industry. Going forward, JD Health will remain committed to its business philosophy of transfer-based value creation centered on customer health. Through close collaborations with upstream and downstream partners, we will continue to open up our supply to infrastructure and healthcare service capacities. to achieve sustainable development together with customers, industry stakeholders, partners, and society as a whole.
