peng, chairman of the board and chief executive officer of beike, commented, “in the second quarter of 2022, promising changes began to take place in china’s real estate market. the existing home market, in particular, benefited from the easing on home purchase restrictions and effective pandemic prevention and control measures. we focused on strengthening our unique products and services to empower our service providers and serve customers in broader and deeper ways, pivoting our growth trajectory for the long-term.” “as we weathered industry headwinds, our total gtv decreased by 47.6% year-over-year to rmb639.5 billion in the second quarter of 2022. we responded to the macro environment with comprehensive improvements to our operating efficiency and simultaneously stabilized the scale of agents and stores on our platform. for existing home sales, we continued to iterate our acn’s business leads allocation mechanism to strengthen our infrastructure and prioritize operating efficiency and profitability for lianjia. for new home sales, we actively carried out corporate-to-corporate cooperation with selected developers and promoted commission-in-advance and other focused sales strategies to accelerate sell-through, becoming both promoter and benefactor of the rising brokerage concentration for new home transactions in this round of market adjustments. our home renovation and furnishing services once again bucked market trends and achieved robust growth, owing to its full-service business model and the advantages on customer trust and traffic which we’ve built through our core businesses.” “leveraging our inclusive infrastructure along with our network of community-based service providers and stores, and with an unwavering and strengthened commitment to help service providers, we are well positioned to capture the upside of market recovery and serve the society as the one-stop platform for ‘living services’ that makes home a better place,” concluded mr. peng. mr. tao xu, executive director and chief financial officer of beike, added, “during the second quarter, we achieved net revenues of rmb13.8 billion, beating both the high-end of our guidance and the street consensus. despite the rocky market recovery, we were able to take a series of cost-management measures and allocate resources more efficiency-oriented in order to enhance profitability. as a result, we’ve gained a larger operating leverage for our housing transaction services business against the challenging market environment, and we believe our profitability for the housing transaction services will gradually recover in the second half of this year. we will also continue to make necessary investment in home renovation and furnishing services and beike rental services. we’d like to highlight that with home prices stabilizing and the need for better living of the chinese people continuing to increase, the demand for home upgrade will serve as a prominent driver, turbocharging a continued expansion of the market and resulting higher derived demand for a range of services including home renovation and furnishing, and rental services. we firmly believe our unique competencies and solid business layout in those sectors will support us to take the fast ride and achieve rapid growth in the long run.” second quarter 2022 financial results net revenues net revenues decreased by 43.0% to rmb13.8 billion (us$2.1 billion) in the second quarter of 2022, compared to rmb24.2 billion in the same period of 2021. the decrease was primarily attributable to the decline in total gtv. total gtv was rmb639.5 billion (us$95.5 billion) in the second quarter of 2022, representing a 47.6% decrease compared to rmb1,220.8 billion in the same period of 2021 due to the disruption on the recovery of the market for existing home transactions caused by the emergence of covid-19 in certain regions and the corresponding restrictive measures in the second quarter of 2022, and the market for new home transactions remained weak since the second half of 2021 as many real estate developers were facing liquidity and delivery challenges. net revenues from existing home transaction services decreased by 42.5% to rmb5.5 billion (us$0.8 billion) in the second quarter of 2022, compared to rmb9.6 billion in the same period of 2021, primarily due to a 39.6% decrease in gtv of existing home transactions to rmb393.5 billion (us$58.7 billion) in the second quarter of 2022 from rmb652.0 billion in the same period of 2021. among that, (i) commission revenue decreased by 45.9% to rmb4.6 billion (us$0.7 billion) in the second quarter of 2022 from rmb8.5 billion in the same period of 2021, primarily due to a decrease in gtv of existing home transactions served by lianjia stores of 47.2% to rmb163.5 billion (us$24.4 billion) in the second quarter of 2022 from rmb309.5 billion in the same period of 2021; and (ii) the revenues derived from platform service, franchise service and other value-added services, which are mostly charged to connected stores and agents on the company’s platform, decreased by 16.5% to rmb0.9 billion (us$0.1 billion) in the second quarter of 2022, from rmb1.1 billion in the same period of 2021, mainly due to a 32.9% decrease of gtv of existing home transactions served by connected agents on the company’s platform to rmb229.9 billion (us$34.3 billion) in the second quarter of 2022 from rmb342.5 billion in the same period of 2021. the lower decline rate of revenues derived from platform service, franchise service and other value-added services compared to that of the gtv of existing home transactions served by connected agents was partially attributable to the increased penetration level of value-added services. net revenues from new home transaction services decreased by 52.0% to rmb6.7 billion (us$1.0 billion) in the second quarter of 2022 from rmb13.9 billion in the same period of 2021, primarily due to the decrease of gtv of new home transactions of 55.3% to rmb222.7 billion (us$33.3 billion) in the second quarter of 2022 from rmb498.3 billion in the same period of 2021. among that, the gtv of new home transaction services completed on beike platform through connected agents, dedicated sales team with the expertise on new home transaction services and other sales channels was rmb183.8 billion (us$27.4 billion), compared to rmb414.5 billion in the same period of 2021, while the gtv of new home transactions served by lianjia brand was rmb38.9 billion (us$5.8 billion) in the second quarter of 2022, compared to rmb83.8 billion in the same period of 2021. net revenues from home renovation and furnishing were rmb1.0 billion (us$0.2 billion) in the second quarter of 2022, compared to rmb43 million in the same period of 2021, primarily because the company completed the acquisition of shengdu home renovation co., ltd. (“shengdu”), a full-service home renovation service provider in china, and began to consolidate its financial results during the second quarter of 2022. net revenues from emerging and other services decreased by 9.6% to rmb557 million (us$83 million) in the second quarter of 2022 from rmb616 million in the same period of 2021, primarily attributable to the decrease of net revenues from financial services which was partially offset by the increase of net revenues from rental property management services. cost of revenues total cost of revenues decreased by 41.3% to rmb11.1 billion (us$1.7 billion) in the second quarter of 2022 from rmb18.8 billion in the same period of 2021. commission - split. the company’s cost of revenues for commissions to connected agents and other sales channels was rmb4.7 billion (us$0.7 billion) in the second quarter of 2022, compared to rmb9.4 billion in the same period of 2021, primarily due to the decrease in the gtv of new home transactions completed through connected agents and other sales channels in the second quarter of 2022 compared with the same period of 2021. commission and compensation - internal. the company’s cost of revenues for internal commission and compensation was rmb4.3 billion (us$0.6 billion) in the second quarter of 2022, compared to rmb7.6 billion in the same period of 2021, primarily due to the decrease in the gtv of exiting home and new home transactions completed through lianjia agents. cost of home renovation and furnishing. the company’s cost of revenues for home renovation and furnishing was rmb724 million (us$108 million) in the second quarter of 2022, compared to rmb43 million in the same period of 2021, primarily because the company completed the acquisition of shengdu and began to consolidate its financial results during the second quarter of 2022. cost related to stores. the company’s cost related to stores decreased by 6.0% to rmb876 million (us$131 million) in the second quarter of 2022 compared to rmb931 million in the same period of 2021, mainly due to the decrease in the number of lianjia stores in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the same period of 2021. other costs. the company’s other costs decreased by 35.7% to rmb543 million (us$81 million) in the second quarter of 2022 from rmb844 million in the same period of 2021, mainly due to a decrease of business taxes and surcharges along with the decrease of net revenues, the decreased funding costs and provisions related to financial services and the decreased offline activities costs due to covid-19 outbreaks in certain regions in the second quarter of 2022. gross profit gross profit was rmb2.7 billion (us$0.4 billion) in the second quarter of 2022, compared to rmb5.3 billion in the same period of 2021. gross margin was 19.7% in the second quarter of 2022, compared to 22.1% in the same period of 2021. the decrease in gross margin was mainly due to a relatively higher percentage of cost related to stores of net revenues as a result of the decrease of net revenues in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the same period of 2021. income (loss) from operations total operating expenses remained flat at rmb4.2 billion (us$0.6 billion) in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the same period of 2021. general and administrative expenses were rmb2,250 million (us$336 million) in the second quarter of 2022, compared to rmb2,202 million in the same period of 2021, mainly due to the increase of share-based compensation expenses and additional severance costs incurred in the second quarter of 2022, which was partially offset by the decrease of recurring personnel costs and overheads along with the decreased headcount, as well as conferences and travel expenses as a result of the covid-19 outbreaks in certain regions in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the same period of 2021. sales and marketing expenses were rmb1,122 million (us$167 million) in the second quarter of 2022, compared to rmb1,241 million in the same period of 2021, mainly due to the decrease of the brand advertising and promotional marketing expenses for housing transaction services, which was partially offset by sales and marketing expenses of shengdu. research and development expenses were rmb779 million (us$116 million) in the second quarter of 2022, unchanged from rmb775 million in the same period of 2021, mainly due to additional severance costs incurred in the second quarter of 2022, which was mainly offset by the decrease of recurring personnel costs and share-based compensation as a result of decreased headcount in research and development personnel in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the same period of 2021. loss from operations was rmb1,518 million (us$227 million) in the second quarter of 2022, compared to income from operations of rmb1,116 million in the same period of 2021. operating margin was negative 11.0% in the second quarter of 2022, compared to 4.6% in the same period of 2021, primarily due to a) a relatively lower gross profit margin, b) an increase of the percentage of total recurring operating expenses of net revenues in the second quarter of 2022, primarily due to decreased net revenues and c) additional severance costs of rmb438 million incurred in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the same period of 2021. adjusted loss from operations6
