In 2022, the company achieved a GMV of 101.4 billion, an increase of 3.15% over the previous year, and the average GMV of merchants increased 9% year over year. GMV from non-Kuaishou channels increased 19% year over year in 2022, which was basically the same as the previous year's growth rate, and the impact of Kuaishou channels on business continued to wane. In 22Q4, the company adjusted its EBITDA to 7.15 million yuan, turning a loss into a profit.

The performance of the store business was impressive, and GMV from store SaaS increased rapidly.

Among them, businesses subscribed to e-commerce SaaS accounted for 63%, and merchants subscribed to store SaaS (including Youzan Retail, Youzan Chain, Youzan Education, and WangXiaodian) accounted for 37%. At the end of 2022, the corporate user turnover rate was 51.36%, a slight increase over the same period last year, mainly due to the impact of the pandemic on the real economy. ARPU for the 2022 stock user subscription plan fell 3.15% year over year to $10,700. GMV from store SaaS solutions grew rapidly year over year. GMV reached 42.5 billion yuan in 2022, an increase of more than 53% over the previous year, accounting for 42% of total transaction volume.

Profit forecast: We expect China Youzan's revenue for 23/24 to be 15.1/1.74 billion yuan, respectively. The year-on-year increase was 1%/15%, respectively.
