Second Quarter 2023 Unaudited Financial Results
Net revenues were RMB592.9 million (US$81.8 million) in the second quarter of 2023, representing a 15% increase from RMB515.7 million in the second quarter of 2022, as we diversified our audio entertainment product matrix.
Cost of revenues was RMB418.4 million (US$57.7 million) in the second quarter of 2023, representing a 23% increase from RMB340.1 million in the second quarter of 2022, mainly attributable to (i) the increased revenue sharing fees to our content creators as the Company’s revenues grew, and the increased percentage of the revenue sharing fees to incentivize our content creators, (ii) the increased salary and welfare benefits expenses related to the increased average salary, and (iii) the increased payment handling costs.
Gross profit was RMB174.4 million (US$24.1 million) in the second quarter of 2023, compared with RMB175.6 million in the second quarter of 2022.
Non-GAAP gross profit3 was RMB175.6 million (US$24.2 million) in the second quarter of 2023, compared with RMB176.8 million in the second quarter of 2022.

Research and development expenses were RMB75.2 million (US$10.4 million) in the second quarter of 2023, representing a 7% increase from RMB70.3 million in the second quarter of 2022, primarily due to (i) the increased salary and welfare benefits expenses related to the increase in the number of our research and development staff, (ii) the increased rental expenses, and (iii) partially offset by the decreased share-based compensation expenses and expenses related to research and development services provided by third parties.
Selling and marketing expenses were RMB67.5 million (US$9.3 million) in the second quarter of 2023, representing an 11% increase from RMB60.8 million in the second quarter of 2022, primarily attributable to the (i) increased branding and marketing expenses, and (ii) the increased salary and welfare benefits expenses related to the increase in the number of our sales and marketing staff.

General and administrative expenses were RMB23.9 million (US$3.3 million) in the second quarter of 2023, compared to RMB30.6 million in the second quarter of 2022, mainly driven by the decreased provision for litigation contingencies, professional service fees, share-based compensation expenses and other miscellaneous expenses, partially offset by the increased salary and welfare benefits expenses related to the increased average salary.

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”).
LIZHI uses non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating loss/income, non-GAAP net loss/income, non-GAAP net loss/income attributable to LIZHI INC.’s ordinary shareholders and non-GAAP basic and diluted net loss/income per ADS, which are non-GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP gross profit is gross profit excluding share-based compensation expenses. Non-GAAP gross margin is non-GAAP gross profit as a percentage of net revenues. Non-GAAP operating loss/income is operating loss/income excluding share-based compensation expenses. Non-GAAP net loss/income is net loss/income, excluding share-based compensation expenses. Non-GAAP net loss/income attributable to LIZHI INC.’s ordinary shareholders is net loss/income attributable to LIZHI INC.’s ordinary shareholders, excluding share-based compensation expenses. Non-GAAP basic and diluted net loss/income per ADS is non-GAAP net loss/income attributable to LIZHI INC.’s ordinary shareholders divided by the weighted average number of ADS used in the calculation of basic and diluted net loss/income per ADS. The Company believes that separate analysis and exclusion of the non-cash impact of the above reconciling item adds clarity to the constituent parts of its performance. The Company reviews these non-GAAP financial measures together with GAAP financial measures to obtain a better understanding of its operating performance. It uses the non-GAAP financial measure for planning, forecasting and measuring results against the forecast. The Company believes that non-GAAP financial measure is useful supplemental information for investors and analysts to assess its operating performance without the non-cash effect of share-based compensation expenses.
However, the use of non-GAAP financial measures has material limitations as an analytical tool. One of the limitations of using non-GAAP financial measures is that they do not include all items that impact the Company’s net income for the period. In addition, because non-GAAP financial measures are not measured in the same manner by all companies, they may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies. In light of the foregoing limitations, you should not consider non-GAAP financial measures in isolation from, superior to, or as an alternative to the financial measure prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
4
The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures, please see the table captioned “Unaudited Reconciliations of GAAP and Non-GAAP Results” near the end of this release.
