Revenues
Total revenues were RMB309.1 million (US$46.1 million), a decrease of 31.6% from RMB451.8 million in the same period of 2021.

- Information services and other revenues were RMB219.3 million (US$32.7 million), a decrease of 39.2% from RMB360.7 million in the same period of 2021. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in average revenue per paying medical service provider subscribing to information services.
- Reservation services revenues were RMB30.6 million (US$4.6 million), a decrease of 66.4% from RMB91.1 million in the same period of 2021.The decrease was primarily due to the impact by the resurgence of COVID-19 in certain cities in China and adoption of new operating strategy which gave higher subsidies to end users.

Cost of Revenues
Cost of revenues were RMB104.5 million (US$15.6 million), an increase of 77.7% from RMB58.8 million in the second quarter of 2021.

The above outlook is based on the current market conditions and reflects the Company’s preliminary estimates of market and operating conditions, as well as customer demand, which are all subjected to change, particularly in view of the potential impact of the COVID-19, the effects of which are difficult to analyze and predict.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement the financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or GAAP, this press release presents non-GAAP (loss)/income from operations and non-GAAP net (loss)/income attributable to So-Young International Inc. by excluding share-based compensation expenses from (loss)/income from operations and net (loss)/income attributable to So-Young International Inc., respectively. The Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures are important to help investors understand the Company’s operating and financial performance, compare business trends among different reporting periods on a consistent basis and assess the Company’s core operating results, as they exclude certain expenses that are not expected to result in cash payments. The use of the above non-GAAP financial measures has certain limitations. Share-based compensation expenses have been and will continue to be incurred in the future. This is not reflected in the presentation of the non-GAAP financial measures, but should be considered in the overall evaluation of the Company’s results. The Company compensates for these limitations by providing the relevant disclosure of its share-based compensation expenses in the reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, which should be considered when evaluating the Company’s performance. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliation of each of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is set forth at the end of this release.
