    Источник: Nasdaq GlobeNewswire / 30 мар 2023 15:05:47   America/Chicago

    BEIJING, March 30, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ATA Creativity Global (“ACG” or the “Company”, Nasdaq: AACG), an international educational services company focused on providing quality learning experiences that cultivate and enhance students’ creativity, today announced preliminary unaudited financial results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2022 (“Fourth Quarter 2022” and “Fiscal Year 2022”, respectively).

    Fourth Quarter 2022 and Fiscal Year 2022 Highlights

    • Fourth Quarter 2022 net revenues increased 8.2% to RMB78.5 million (US$11.4 million), from RMB72.6 million in the prior-year period.
    • Fourth Quarter 2022 net income attributable to ACG was RMB2.0 million (US$0.3 million), compared to net loss of RMB2.5 million in the prior-year period.
    • During Fourth Quarter 2022, student enrollment was 908, compared to 1,052 in the prior-year period. Excluding the 167 enrollments from the foreign language training business ACG disposed of in Third Quarter 2022, student enrollment increased year over year despite several temporary ACG training center closures in December 2022 due to local lockdowns in response to a nationwide surge in COVID-19 cases. Of the 908 total enrollments, 574 students were enrolled in ACG’s portfolio training programs. Approximately 46,894 credit hours were delivered during Fourth Quarter 2022, compared to 53,538 in the prior-year period.
    • Fiscal Year 2022 net revenues increased 2.3% to RMB206.8 million (US$30.0 million), from RMB202.2 million in the prior year.
    • Fiscal Year 2022 net loss attributable to ACG of RMB47.9 million (US$6.9 million) compared to RMB33.6 million in the prior year. This was primarily due to an RMB33.5 million investment gain related to the disposal of the K-12 education assessment business in the prior-year period, which was offset by lower operating expenses primarily related to the final one-time funding support of RMB10.0 million paid to Tsinghua University in the prior-year period and an RMB6.0 million impairment loss of investment recorded in the prior-year period.
    • RMB55.0 million (US$8.0 million) in cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2022

    Management Commentary

    Mr. Kevin Ma, Chairman and CEO of ACG, stated, “We were pleased to continue providing our students with the ongoing academic and emotional support needed for them to pursue their creative arts during the year despite the ongoing uncertainties presented by the lingering pandemic environment. Despite these challenges, we achieved a modest year-over-year net revenue increase in Fiscal Year 2022, driven by increased revenue contributions from our core portfolio training business and the delivery of other educational services through new cooperation projects with schools and training organizations. This is particularly impressive as portfolio training services were impacted by periodic training center closures in some of our core cities due to mandated local lockdowns following COVID-19 outbreaks. While the pandemic environment did impact the total credit hours delivered for the portfolio training business, we saw a continued shift from time-based programs to project-based programs and were also thrilled to see that our research-based learning programs continue to resonate with students. At the same time, students are increasingly taking steps to pursue overseas study as international travel and study abroad programs begin to pick up once again. Excluding the one-time investment gain from the disposal of our K-12 business in Fiscal Year 2021, we continued to narrow losses on our bottom line while continuing to invest in growing our business.”

    Mr. Ma continued, “In 2022, we remained committed to providing our students with quality and relevant course and service offerings, including new research-based learning experiences covering the latest themes in art, launching an interactive platform for enabling students and staff to more easily track their progress, and providing counselling services to students throughout the overseas study program application process. We were excited that some of our students have begun to receive offers of admission and scholarships from prestigious art institutions in the UK, the U.S., and many other countries. The first class of students who enrolled in the ACG International Arts Foundation Program in September 2021 have all started their freshman year in UK colleges, and we are pleased to be serving an even larger class of newly enrolled students to prepare them for overseas undergraduate art programs. We take pride in what ACG alums have accomplished this past year and are dedicated to continuing to work on our mission of enabling positive outcomes for our students through expanded offerings and serving more students as travel restrictions have eased in China as of the beginning of 2023.”

    Outlook

    Mr. Jun Zhang, President of ACG, stated, “Since the Chinese New Year holiday, the majority of our classes have resumed in-person delivery at our training centers. ACG continues to believe in the importance of investing in ongoing expansion of relevant course offerings that fit the needs of our students. Our highlight program for the first quarter of 2023 will be our Open Hack Project designed for Shanghai Fashion Week 2023, where participating students will get hands-on experience in writing branding proposals, completing a fashion look-book from start to finish, as well as interviewing fashion icons and influencers and potentially winning VIP access to Shanghai Fashion Week 2023. The students will not only walk away with a certificate of internship completion but also an invaluable, real-life opportunity to be part of an actual fashion week behind the scenes. We also expect to launch additional research-based learning experiences at cultural heritage sites in China, providing students with an opportunity to gain a unique perspective on intangible cultural heritage that will serve them well in their future art school applications and study.”

    Mr. Zhang added, “In 2023, ACG has continued to work on optimizing our instructional resources. We have garnered valuable input since integrating full-time teachers into more internal management activities and look forward to continuing this strategy to improve operating results. We remain optimistic about the growth opportunities we see ahead in 2023 and look forward to introducing the pipeline of new offerings for students at all stages of their arts study journey. ACG aims to be a globally recognized provider of creative arts education, and we are confident that our track record of driving positive outcomes for students, our devoted teaching staff, and our extensive partnership base with top-tier art institutions will continue to differentiate us from other creative art education providers.”

    Operating Review

    Enrollment Update

    ACG student enrollment for Fourth Quarter 2022 was 908, of which 574 students were enrolled in its portfolio training programs, which consist of time-based programs and project-based programs.

    A total of 46,894 credit hours were delivered for portfolio training programs during Fourth Quarter 2022, of which 15,780 credit hours were delivered for time-based programs and 31,114 credit hours were delivered for project-based programs. These courses were delivered either in person through ACG’s nationwide training center network or via online platform.

    The following is a summary of the credit hours delivered for ACG’s portfolio training programs for Fourth Quarter 2022, compared to those for the prior-year period:

      Fourth Quarter Ended Dec. 31, 2022 Fourth Quarter Ended Dec. 31, 2021 % Change
      No. of Credit Hours No. of Credit Hours  
    Time-based Program 15,780 29,949 (47.3%)
    Project-based Program 31,114 23,589 31.9%
    Total 46,894 53,538 (12.4%)
           

    During Fourth Quarter 2022, 334 students were enrolled in ACG’s other programs, which primarily consisted of overseas study counselling services and research-based learning services. ACG deconsolidated a former subsidiary during Third Quarter 2022, which operated the foreign language training services business, as categorized under “other educational services” in prior quarters.

    Fourth Quarter 2022 Financial Review - GAAP Results

    ACG’s total net revenues for Fourth Quarter 2022 were RMB78.5 million (US$11.4 million), an increase of 8.2% from RMB72.6 million in the prior-year period, primarily due to an increase in revenue contributions from portfolio training services and other educational services, which is primarily related to services delivered for new cooperation projects with schools and training organizations. Revenues from portfolio training programs were RMB57.8 million, or 73.6% of total net revenues, during the period. Revenues from overseas study counselling services, research-based learning services and other educational services were RMB20.7 million, or 26.4% of total net revenues, during the period.

    Gross profit for Fourth Quarter 2022 was RMB47.6 million (US$6.9 million), an increase of 4.6% from RMB45.5 million in the prior-year period. Gross margin was 60.6% during the period, compared to 62.8% in the prior-year period. The gross margin decrease was largely due to increased cost of services related to higher compensation expenses for teaching staff becoming increasingly engaged in ACG’s internal management processes related to enhancing the efficiency and quality of service delivery.

    Total operating expenses for Fourth Quarter 2022 were RMB42.7 million (US$6.2 million), compared to RMB42.7 million in the prior-year period.

    Income from operations for Fourth Quarter 2022 increased 70.7% to RMB4.9 million (US$0.7 million), compared to RMB2.9 million in the prior-year period.

    Net income attributable to ACG for Fourth Quarter 2022 was RMB2.0 million (US$0.3 million), compared to net loss of RMB2.5 million in the prior-year period.

    For Fourth Quarter 2022, basic and diluted earnings per common share attributable to ACG were both RMB0.03 (US$0.00), compared to basic and diluted losses per common share of RMB0.04 for the prior-year period. Basic and diluted earnings per ADS attributable to ACG were both RMB0.06 (US$0.01), compared to basic and diluted losses per ADS of RMB0.08 in the prior-year period.

    Year-end 2022 Financial Review – GAAP Results

    ACG’s total net revenues for Fiscal Year 2022 was RMB206.8 million (US$30.0 million), an increase of 2.3% from RMB202.2 million in the prior year. This was primarily due to an increase in revenue contributions of RMB1.7 million from portfolio training services and RMB3.5 million from other educational services, which was primarily related to services delivered for new cooperation projects with schools and other training organizations, partially offset by a decrease in revenue from foreign language training services under other educational services related to the disposal of majority equity interests in a former subsidiary during Third Quarter 2022. Revenues from portfolio training programs were RMB153.1 million, or 74.0% of total net revenues, during the period. Revenues from research-based learning services, overseas study counselling services, other educational services and other services were RMB53.7 million, or 26.0% of total net revenues, during the period.

    Gross profit for Fiscal Year 2022 was RMB102.5 million (US$14.9 million), compared to RMB104.8 million in the prior year, primarily as a result of increased cost of revenues as noted in the Fourth Quarter 2022 Financial Review above. Gross margin was 49.6% during the period, compared to 51.8% in the prior year.

    Total operating expenses for Fiscal Year 2022 were RMB159.1 million (US$23.1 million), compared to RMB171.2 million in the prior year. The decrease was primarily a result of decreased general and administrative expenses related to the final one-time funding support of RMB10.0 million to Tsinghua University that was paid in the prior-year period.

    Loss from operations for Fiscal Year 2022 improved to RMB56.6 million (US$8.2 million), from RMB66.4 million in the prior year.

    Net loss attributable to ACG for Fiscal Year 2022 was RMB47.9 million (US$6.9 million), compared to RMB33.6 million in the prior year, primarily due to an RMB33.5 million from the investment gain related to the disposal of the K-12 education assessment business in the prior-year period, which was offset by decreased general and administrative expenses of RMB10.0 million related to the Tsinghua University funding support paid in prior-year period as noted above, as well as an RMB6.0 million impairment loss of investment recorded in the prior-year period.

    For Fiscal Year 2022, basic and diluted losses per common share attributable to ACG were both RMB0.76 (US$0.11), compared to RMB0.57 for the prior year. Basic and diluted losses per ADS attributable to ACG were both RMB1.52 (US$0.22), compared to RMB1.14 in the prior year.

    Non-GAAP Measures

    Adjusted net loss attributable to ACG for Fiscal Year 2022, which excludes share-based compensation expense and foreign currency exchange gain (non-GAAP), was RMB46.4 million (US$6.7 million), compared to adjusted net loss of RMB32.4 million in the prior year.

    Basic and diluted losses per common share attributable to ACG excluding share-based compensation expense and foreign currency exchange gain (non-GAAP) for Fiscal Year 2022 were RMB0.74 (US$0.11). Basic and diluted losses per ADS attributable to ACG excluding share-based compensation expense and foreign currency exchange gain (non-GAAP) for Fiscal Year 2022 were RMB1.48 (US$0.22).

    Currency Convenience Translation

    The Company’s financial information is stated in Renminbi (“RMB”), the currency of the People’s Republic of China. The translations of RMB amounts for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2022, into U.S. dollars are included solely for the convenience of readers and have been made at the rate of RMB6.8972 to US$1.00, the noon buying rate as of December 31, 2022, in New York for cable transfers in RMB per U.S. dollar as set forth in the H.10 weekly statistical release of the Federal Reserve Board. Such translations should not be construed as representations that RMB amounts could be converted into U.S. dollars at that rate or any other rate, or to be the amounts that would have been reported under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).

    About Non-GAAP Financial Measures

    To supplement ACG’s consolidated financial information presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, ACG uses the following non-GAAP financial measures: net loss excluding share-based compensation expense and foreign currency exchange gain or loss, and basic and diluted losses per common share and ADS excluding share-based compensation expense and foreign currency exchange gain or loss.

    The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. ACG believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information about its performance by excluding share- based compensation expense and foreign currency exchange gain or loss, which may not be indicative of its operating performance.

    ACG believes that both management and investors benefit from these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing its performance and when planning and forecasting future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate management’s internal comparisons to ACG’s historical performance. ACG computes its non-GAAP financial measures using a consistent method from period to period. ACG believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors in allowing for greater transparency with respect to supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision making. A limitation of using non-GAAP net loss excluding share-based compensation expense and foreign currency exchange gain or loss and basic and diluted losses per common share and per ADS excluding share-based compensation expense and foreign currency exchange gain or loss is that share-based compensation charges and foreign currency exchange gain or loss have been, and are expected to continue to be for the foreseeable future, a significant recurring expense in ACG’s business.

    Management compensates for these limitations by providing specific information regarding the GAAP amounts excluded from each non-GAAP measure. The table captioned “Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Measures to the Most Comparable GAAP Measures” shown at the end of this news release has more details on the reconciliations between GAAP financial measures that are most directly comparable to the non-GAAP financial measures used by ACG.
