SHANGHAI, Feb. 19, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- OneSmart International Education Group Limited (NYSE: ONE) ("OneSmart" or the "Company"), a leading premium K-12 after-school education service provider in China, today announced its unaudited financial results for the first fiscal quarter ended November 30, 2019.
Highlights for the First Fiscal Quarter Ended November 30, 2019
Mr. Steve Zhang, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of OneSmart, commented, "We would like to extend our sincere care and deep concern to the people including our students and families who are being affected by the coronavirus outbreak in Wuhan and many other cities of China. Despite the short-term challenges, we remain confident on growth prospect of our business and the ability of our highly effective personalized teaching programs to help improve learning experience and outcome. The situation requires us to accelerate the expansion of our online platform, OneSmart Online. The online platform was built on deep understanding of online education demand and learning of online products and technologies through a number of online businesses that we invested in over the last five years. OneSmart Online will focus on providing premium personalized education services as a supplement to our existing offline premium programs. While the new platform has been playing a critical role in smoothly switching majority of our teaching activities from offline to online to tackle the situation, we expect it to continue to gain market traction in the medium to long term as it strategically broaden our addressable markets to more students and more cities that our offline model cannot yet sufficiently cover. Going forward, our offline centers will continue to focus on tier-1 and major tier-2 cities, while our online platform will expand into the vast lower tier cities. I am very confident that with our well recognized brand, improved teacher quality, operational efficiencies and continuous investment in technology, we will replicate our offline success to online space and build the largest premium online education platform in China."
The following are key highlights of business development during the first fiscal quarter of 2020:
OneSmart VIP business (Premium K-12 1-on-1 training services)
HappyMath (Premium young children math education programs)
FasTrack English (Premium young children English education programs)
OneSmart Online (Premium online education services)

Mr. Greg Zuo, OneSmart's Director, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Strategic Officer added, "OneSmart is committed to make every effort to ensure the continuity of quality learning by our students. Thanks to the solid performance of OneSmart Online platform, we have successfully converted majority of our offline students to online platform just within the first two weeks since the beginning of February when the initiative started. So far our students for the main VIP business are taking our online classes more than twice as frequently as they took offline classes previously. We expect the conversion trend to continue during the rest of virus outbreak period. To actively manage the short term impact, we have implemented temporary cost and expenses control policy. Some of these measures may have a prolonged positive impact to the margin expansion trend that we expect.
OneSmart Online is a critical part of our long-term strategy. We have invested significant amount of capital to improve OneSmart Online platform and we will continue to expand its online offerings to existing and broader student base in more cities of China. OneSmart Online offers compelling value proposition by bringing convenience, quality teacher, program flexibility and enhanced value to our students. Its OMO offerings, which we are rolling out to more than 10 cities in China, enables us to address a larger market to reach to students in cities where our current physical centers cannot sufficiently cover, as well as students in lower tier cities that we have not entered. We are excited for the opportunities to generate sizable incremental growth through online channel in the near future. For our traditional offline business, we expect to drive growth momentum by upgrading to more premium Elite products, scaling up the top 20 cites for economy of scale and the continuing ramp-up of the 237 centers opened in FY18 and FY19, which is on track as of FY20Q1."

Financial Results for the First Fiscal Quarter Ended November 30, 2019
Net Revenues
Net revenues were RMB797.2 million (US$113.4 million), an increase of 23.2% from RMB647.0 million during the same period last year. The increase was mainly attributable to the growth of consumed class units and increased unit prices, coupled with the incremental volume from online platform. Consumed class units increased by 21.4% compared with the same period last year.
Operating Costs and Expenses
Operating costs and expenses for the quarter were RMB 911.9 million (US$129.7 million), an increase of 28.8% from RMB708.0 million during the same period last year. Non-GAAP operating costs and expenses, which excludes share-based compensation expenses, were RMB884.0 million (US$125.7 million), an increase of 28.1% from RMB689.9 million during the same period last year.
Total share-based compensation expenses, which were allocated to related operating expenses, were RMB27.9 million (US$4.0 million) in the first fiscal quarter of 2020, compared with RMB18.2 million in the same period of the prior fiscal year.
Operating Loss and Operating Margin
Operating loss for the quarter was RMB114.7 million (US$16.3 million), compared with operating loss of RMB61.1 million in the same period of the prior fiscal year. Non-GAAP operating loss, which excludes shared-based compensation, was RMB86.8 million (US$12.3 million), compared with Non-GAAP operating loss of RMB42.9 million during the same period of the prior fiscal year.
Operating margin for the quarter was -14.4%, compared with -9.4% in the same period of the prior fiscal year. Non-GAAP operating margin was -10.9%, compared with -6.6% during the same period last year. If excludes the financial impact of increased teacher compensation, higher rental cost and R&D spending to support online products development, non-GAAP Operating Margin would have been -3.9% for FY20Q1.
Other income, which mainly represents government subsidies and other gains, was RMB10.1 million (US$1.4 million), compared with RMB17.1 million during the same period last year.
Income tax benefit was RMB3.4 million (US$0.5 million), compared with RMB2.5 million income tax expense during the same period last year.
Net Income/Loss Attributable to OneSmart
Net loss attributable to OneSmart was RMB89.9 million (US$12.8 million), compared with net loss of RMB16.3 million during the same period last year. Non-GAAP net loss attributable to OneSmart was RMB62.0 million (US$8.8 million), compared with net income of RMB1.9 million during the same period last year. The change was mainly due to the rise of teacher compensation, rent, general and administrative expenses, and interest expenses.
Capital Expenditures
Capital expenditures for the first fiscal quarter of 2020 were RMB90.2 million (US$12.8 million), an increase of RMB10.0 million from RMB80.2 million in the first fiscal quarter of 2019. The increase was mainly due to the payments of leasehold and technology improvements.
Financial Position
As of November 30, 2019, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of RMB1,191.6 million (US$169.5 million) and short-term investments of RMB444.2 million (US$63.2 million).
OneSmart's prepayments from customers balance, which represents cash collected from enrolled students for courses and recognized proportionately as the training sessions are delivered, was RMB2,425.7 million (US$345.0 million) at the end of the first fiscal quarter of 2020, an increase of 9.3% from RMB2,219.1 million at the end of the first fiscal quarter of 2019.
Cash Flow
Net cash provided by operating activities in the first fiscal quarter of 2020 was RMB13.5 million (US$1.9 million).
Net cash used in investing activities in the first quarter of 2020 was 180.8 RMB million (US$25.7 million).
Net cash used in financing activities in the first quarter of 2020 was RMB19.6 million (US$2.8 million).
Outlook for Fiscal Year 2020
Due to the impact by the ongoing coronavirus outbreak in China, we will likely revise our Fiscal Year 2020 outlook that we announced last quarter. However as the situation is still evolving and the degree of full year contribution by our rapidly growing online products requires more data to assess, we plan to provide updated full year guidance next quarter when we believe there will be more clarity.

These forward-looking statements can be identified by terminology such as "will," "expects," "anticipates," "future," "intends," "plans," "believes," "estimates," "confident" and similar statements. OneSmart may also make written or oral forward-looking statements in its reports filed with or furnished to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, in its annual report to shareholders, in press releases and other written materials and in oral statements made by its officers, directors or employees to third parties. Any statements that are not historical facts, including statements about OneSmart's beliefs and expectations, are forward-looking statements that involve factors, risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. Such factors and risks include, but not limited to the following: OneSmart's goals and strategies; its future business development, financial condition and results of operations; its ability to continue to penetrate premium K-12 after-school education services market; diversify and enrich our education offerings; enhance the development and management of our teacher team and teaching materials; competition in our industry in China; its ability to maintain and expand online education presence; relevant government policies and regulations relating to the corporate structure, business and industry; and its ability to protect our students' information and adequately address privacy concerns. Further information regarding these and other risks, uncertainties or factors is included in the Company's filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. All information provided in this press release is current as of the date of the press release, and OneSmart does not undertake any obligation to update such information, except as required under applicable law.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In evaluating its business, OneSmart considers and uses the following measures defined as non-GAAP financial measures by the SEC as supplemental metrics to review and assess its operating performance: non-GAAP operating costs and expenses, non-GAAP selling and marketing expenses, non-GAAP general and administrative expenses, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP net income attributable to OneSmart. To present each of these non-GAAP measures, the Company excludes share-based compensation expenses. 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. For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures, please see the table captioned "Reconciliations of non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP measures" set forth at the end of this release.
OneSmart believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding its performance and liquidity by excluding share-based compensation expenses that may not be indicative of its operating performance from a cash perspective. OneSmart 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 OneSmart's historical performance and liquidity. OneSmart computes its non-GAAP financial measures using the same consistent method from quarter to quarter and from period to period. OneSmart 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 measures is that these non-GAAP measures exclude share-based compensation charges that have been and will continue to be for the foreseeable future a significant recurring expense in the Company's business. Management compensates for these limitations by providing specific information regarding the GAAP amounts excluded from each non-GAAP measure. The accompanying tables have more details on the reconciliations between GAAP financial measures that are most directly comparable to non-GAAP financial measures.
