北京，2024年5月28日（GLOBE NEWSWIRE）——中國領先的在線招聘平台KANZHUN LIMITED（“BOSS Zhipin” 或 “公司”）最近宣佈，該公司已實施回購計劃，回購了近100萬股普通股，總價值超過 RMB74 百萬股。
Earlier last week, the Company announced its unaudited financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2024.
上週早些時候，該公司公佈了截至2024年3月31日的季度未經審計的財務業績。
The Company's main operating indicators, such as revenues, total paid enterprise customers and average monthly active users, all reached record highs in the first quarter.
該公司的主要運營指標，例如收入、付費企業客戶總數和平均月活躍用戶，在第一季度均創下歷史新高。
Revenues for the first quarter of 2024 were RMB1,703.8 million (US$236.0 million), an increase of 33.4% from RMB1,277.5 million for the same quarter of 2023. This exceeded the Company's previous expectations.
2024年第一季度的收入爲人民幣17.038億元（合2.36億美元），較2023年同期的人民幣12.775億元增長了33.4％。這超出了公司先前的預期。
Adjusted net income remained healthy. For the first quarter of 2024, adjusted net income totaled RMB530.7 million (US$73.5 million), an increase of 116.6% from RMB 245.0 million for the same quarter of 2023.
調整後的淨收入保持良好。2024年第一季度，調整後的淨收入總額爲人民幣5.307億元（合7,350萬美元），較2023年同期的人民幣2.45億元增長116.6％。
The Company has gradually penetrated China's blue-collar and lower-tier urban markets through product model innovation over the past few years. Entering the peak job recruitment season in 2024, BOSS Zhipin continues to enthusiastically explore blue-collar and lower-tier urban markets, attracting companies and job seekers who have never used online recruitment services to the platform.
在過去的幾年中，該公司通過產品模式創新逐步滲透到中國的藍領和低線城市市場。進入2024年的招聘旺季，BOSS Zhipin繼續熱情開拓藍領和低線城市市場，吸引從未使用過在線招聘服務的公司和求職者加入該平台。
In March, the number of verified MAU on the BOSS Zhipin app exceeded 50 million for the first time, reaching 55 million, up 24% year on year. Meanwhile, the ratio of DAU to MAU remained stable.
3月，BOSS Zhipin應用程序上經過驗證的月活用戶數量首次超過5000萬，達到5500萬，同比增長24％。同時，每日活躍用戶與活躍用戶的比例保持穩定。
As of the end of April, the cumulative number of verified users served by the BOSS Zhipin platform exceeded 190 million, with the cumulative number of verified enterprises surpassing 14 million. From January through April 2024, the Company attracted more than 17 million newly added verified users.
截至4月底，BOSS智品平台累計服務的驗證用戶數超過1.9億，累計驗證企業數量超過1400萬。從2024年1月到4月，該公司吸引了超過1700萬新增的驗證用戶。
The number of blue-collar users and the revenue from this segment continued to grow rapidly. Among new users in the first quarter, both the absolute number and the growth rate of blue-collar users surpassed that of white-collar users, with blue-collar users' revenue contribution climbing to over 35%.
藍領用戶的數量和該細分市場的收入繼續快速增長。在第一季度的新用戶中，藍領用戶的絕對數量和增長率都超過了白領用戶，藍領用戶的收入貢獻攀升至35％以上。
User growth and revenue contribution from second-tier and lower-tier cities continue to increase. Meanwhile, recruitment demand from first-tier cities has also recovered to some degree this year compared to the same period last year.
來自二線和低線城市的用戶增長和收入貢獻持續增加。同時，與去年同期相比，今年一線城市的招聘需求也在一定程度上有所恢復。
As of March 31, 2024, approximately 5.7 million enterprise customers across more than 3.5 million enterprises had conducted paid recruitment activities on BOSS Zhipin over the previous 12 months.
截至2024年3月31日，在過去的12個月中，超過350萬家企業的約570萬企業客戶在BOSS Zhipin上進行了帶薪招聘活動。
Mr. Jonathan Peng Zhao, Founder, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, remarked, "3.5 million enterprises seems like a large number in terms of the global enterprise service market. It even exceeds the total population of some countries. However, it represents less than 10% of China's over 40 million enterprises. This means there is enormous potential for growth in the number of paying companies for China's online recruitment service going forward."
該公司創始人、董事長兼首席執行官喬納森·彭·趙先生表示：“就全球企業服務市場而言，350萬家企業似乎是一個很大的數目。它甚至超過了某些國家的總人口。但是，在中國超過4000萬家企業中，它只佔不到10％。這意味着未來中國在線招聘服務的付費公司數量有巨大的增長潛力。”
As the Company's management emphasized in the conference call, "We have calculated that the average annual payment per enterprise is currently less than RMB2,000. As the vast pool of Chinese enterprises gradually becomes more willing to pay for valuable, must-have to-B services, the situation will continue to improve, which means ARPU will continue to rise."
正如公司管理層在電話會議上強調的那樣，“我們計算得出，目前每家企業的平均年付款低於人民幣2,000元。隨着龐大的中國企業逐漸變得更願意爲有價值的、必備的To-b服務付費，情況將繼續改善，這意味着ARPU將繼續上升。”
Unlike traditional online recruitment platforms, BOSS Zhipin is committed to improving efficiency and experience for both parties in the job search and recruitment process through investment in technology and products. Job seekers and recruiters can communicate directly on the platform and select their favorite positions/candidates with the support of matching algorithms.
與傳統的在線招聘平台不同，BOSS Zhipin致力於通過投資技術和產品，提高雙方在求職和招聘過程中的效率和體驗。求職者和招聘人員可以直接在平台上交流，並在匹配算法的支持下選擇自己喜歡的職位/候選人。
As such, BOSS Zhipin remains dedicated to investing in technology. BOSS Zhipin's R&D expenses increased by 40% year on year to RMB468 million in the first quarter of 2024, primarily due to the Company's increased investment in generative AI development.
因此，BOSS Zhipin仍然致力於投資科技。BOSS Zhipin的研發費用在2024年第一季度同比增長了40％，達到 RMB468 百萬美元，這主要是由於該公司增加了對生成式人工智能開發的投資。
