BEIJING, March 17, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- RISE Education Cayman Ltd ("RISE" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: REDU), a leading junior English Language Training ("ELT") provider in China, today announced its unaudited financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2020.
Impact of COVID-19
The outbreak of COVID-19 in late January 2020 had a significant and material adverse impact on the Company's operations through the full year of 2020. In accordance with government regulations to contain the pandemic, RISE's learning centers were temporarily closed for a majority of the time during the period starting January 19, 2020 until September 2020. As coronavirus containment measures proved effective in China and local restrictions were eased in the third quarter, almost all the Company's learning centers resumed normal operation in the fourth quarter. Through the year, the outbreak and resurgence of COVID-19 has adversely impacted the Company's ability to collect tuition fees and recognize revenue not only from renewed students due to the deferred academic schedules, but also from newly enrolled students acquired through its physical network of learning centers. In response to this challenging new environment, the Company proactively implemented measures throughout the year to stabilize its business by controlling costs and adjusting capital expenditure and to enhance liquidity capabilities to preserve cash. At the same time, the Company continued to upgrade and transform Rise+, a proprietary learning management system with easy online access, into a nation-wide open and interactive technology platform for learning, teaching and training. The Company successfully delivered its first online small group class through its Rise+ platform in March 2020, which has demonstrated the Company's digital capabilities and built a solid infrastructure for the transformation of its business into an Online-Merge-Offline ("OMO") model. Although there are still ongoing uncertainties from the impact of COVID-19, the Company is well prepared to mitigate risks and manage operational flexibility by leveraging on its recent experience.

Ms. Lihong Wang, Chairwoman and Chief Executive Officer of RISE, commented, "We have gained deep insights from an unprecedented year of challenges in 2020 and took immediate actions to stabilize the business with the quick deployment of our online-merge-offline, or OMO strategy, and gradually recovered from the impact of COVID-19 with various initiatives. Almost all of our offline learning centers resumed normal operation in the fourth quarter as China's containment of the pandemic gradually returned life to normalcy. With a strong OMO strategy and online curriculum acting as the 'business stabilizer' when circumstances demand, we saw significant growth in new students enrolled for RISE regular courses as well as for other courses on a yearly basis. Total revenues reached the high end of our guidance, and adjusted EBITDA was close to the level of the fourth quarter of 2019. These successful initiatives have allowed us to navigate this new environment amid COVID-19 and positioned us well to seize new growth opportunities. In 2021, although the re-emergence of COVID-19 in certain parts of China had an adverse impact on our offline business in the first quarter, we were able to respond promptly with our proven OMO courses, which had again demonstrated to be highly effective. As the re-emergence of COVID-19 cases were well contained in February, we expect to re-open the temporarily closed learning centers by the end of March, in line with the pace of China's reopening regulation."
Mr. Warren Wang, Chief Financial Officer of RISE, added, "Total revenue reached the high end of our guidance at RMB364.5million in the fourth quarter, up 13.9% from the prior quarter. In addition, we continued to see a significant improvement in our non-GAAP net income attributable to RISE, which reached RMB55.4 million, an increase of 55% quarter-over-quarter. Our adjusted EBITDA was RMB85.3 million, close to the level of the fourth quarter of 2019. This quarter saw solid growth momentum in new student enrollments for our regular courses which increased 29% year-over-year, demonstrating the high recognition and positive feedback of our courses among parents and students. However, due to the cumulative impact from the closure of our self-owned learning centers during the first three quarters of 2020, our new students enrollment number was lower than the normal levels. In addition, with offline classes resumed, large amount of students completed their course and graduated from Rise. As a result, total number of students in class saw a 5.4% decline quarter-over-quarter. However, this should be short term phenomena, as new student enrollments continued to gain traction with healthy growth over the last two quarters and onward, plus retention rate is trending up in the fourth quarter. By leveraging our proven OMO strategy and strong monetization capability, we expect further recovery in the first half of 2021 should the pandemic situation continue to ease in China. We remain confident in our direction to deliver sustainable growth and profitability in the long term."
Financial Results for the Fourth Quarter of 2020
Revenues
Total revenues for the fourth quarter of 2020 increased by RMB44.4 million, or 13.9%, to RMB364.5 million (US$55.9 million) from RMB320.0 million for the preceding quarter and decreased by RMB51.8 million, or 12.4%, from RMB416.2 million for the same period of the prior year.
Cost of Revenues
Cost of revenues for the fourth quarter of 2020 decreased by RMB7.0 million, or 4.3%, to RMB155.9 million (US$23.9 million) from RMB162.9 million for the preceding quarter and by RMB27.7 million, or 15.1%, from RMB183.6 million for the same period of the prior year. The quarter-over-quarter decrease was primarily due to a decrease in rental cost and the lowered cost of learning materials. The year-over-year decrease was primarily due to a decline in teachers' compensations as a result of the reduced teaching hours and social insurance exemption, as well as rental concession. Non-GAAP cost of revenues[8] for the fourth quarter of 2020 decreased by 4.3% quarter-over-quarter and by 15.4% year-over-year to RMB152.1 million (US$23.3 million).
[8] Non-GAAP cost of revenues exclude relevant share-based compensation ("SBC") expenses and amortization of certain intangible assets, including teaching course license, acquired as part of the junior ELT business by the Company from certain third-party in 2013 (the "2013 acquisition") from cost of revenues. Non-GAAP operating income adds back SBC expenses and amortization of certain intangible assets, including trademark, acquired as part of the 2013 acquisition. Each of non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP selling and marketing expenses and non-GAAP general and administrative expenses excludes relevant SBC expenses and amortization of certain intangible assets acquired as part of the 2013 acquisition. For details on the calculation of each of these items and the reconciliation of each to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, see "About Non-GAAP Financial Measures" and "Reconciliation of GAAP and Non-GAAP Results." |
Gross Profit
As a result of the foregoing, the Company recorded a gross profit of RMB208.6 million (US$32.0 million) for the fourth quarter of 2020, an increase of RMB 51.5 million from RMB157.1 million for the preceding quarter. The Company's gross profit for the fourth quarter of 2020 decreased by RMB24.0 million year-over-year from RMB232.6 million for the same period of the prior year.
Operating Expenses
Total operating expenses for the fourth quarter of 2020 increased by RMB23.4 million, or 17.0%, to RMB161.1 million (US$24.7 million) from RMB137.7 million for the preceding quarter and decreased by RMB10.8 million, or 6.3%, from RMB172.0 million for the same period of the prior year. Non-GAAP operating expenses for the fourth quarter of 2020 were RMB148.0 million (US$22.7 million).
Operating Income
Operating income for the fourth quarter of 2020 was RMB47.5 million (US$7.3 million), an increase of RMB28.1 million from RMB19.4 million for the preceding quarter, compared with operating income of RMB60.7 million for the same period of the prior year. Non-GAAP operating income was RMB64.4 million (US$9.9 million) for the fourth quarter of 2020, compared with RMB27.1 million for the preceding quarter and RMB75.6 million for the same period of the prior year.
Interest Expense
Interest expense for the fourth quarter of 2020 was RMB5.4 million (US$0.8 million), decreased from RMB5.5 million for the preceding quarter and RMB7.4 million for the same period of the prior year. The quarter-over-quarter and year-over-year decrease was attributable to a decrease in the outstanding balance of loans.
Other Income
Other income for the fourth quarter of 2020 was RMB5.8 million (US$0.9 million), compared with RMB16.0 million for the preceding quarter and RMB0.9 million for the same period of the prior year.
Impairment Loss on Long-term Investment
Impairment loss on long-term investment was RMB37.0 million (US$5.7 million) for the fourth quarter of 2020, compared with RMB nil for the preceding quarter and the same period of the prior year. Impairment loss on long-term investment was mainly due to a decline in the fair value of long-term investment in investee.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense for the fourth quarter of 2020 was RMB11.0 million (US$1.7 million), compared with RMB4.0 million for the preceding quarter and RMB8.8 million for the same period of the prior year.
Net Income Attributable to RISE
Net income attributable to RISE for the fourth quarter of 2020 was RMB1.4 million (US$0.2 million), a decrease from RMB28.0 million for the preceding quarter and RMB51.1 million for the same period of the prior year.
Non-GAAP net income attributable to RISE for the fourth quarter of 2020 was RMB55.4 million (US$8.5 million), compared with RMB35.7 million for the preceding quarter and RMB66.1 million for the same period of the prior year.
EBITDA represents net income/(loss) before interests, taxes, depreciation, and amortization. EBITDA income for the fourth quarter of 2020 was RMB35.5 million (US$5.4 million), compared with RMB54.5 million for the preceding quarter and RMB80.4 million for the same period of the prior year.
Adjusted EBITDA income for the fourth quarter of 2020 was RMB85.3 million (US$13.1 million), compared with 57.8 million for the preceding quarter and RMB91.0 million for the same period of the prior year.
Basic and Diluted Earnings per ADS
Basic and diluted net income attributable to RISE per ADS was RMB0.03 (US$ nil) and RMB0.02 (US$ nil), respectively, for the fourth quarter of 2020.
Basic and diluted non-GAAP net income attributable to RISE per ADS was RMB0.98 (US$0.15) and RMB0.97 (US$0.15), respectively, for the fourth quarter of 2020.
Cash Flow
Net cash outflow from operating activities for the fourth quarter of 2020 was RMB108.5 million (US$16.6 million), compared with net cash inflow from operating activities of RMB103.2 million and RMB74.4 million for the preceding quarter and the same period of the prior year, respectively. The quarter-over-quarter decrease in cash generated from operating activities was mainly due to an increase in accumulated refunds of tuition fees paid out and a decrease in cash collection from renewed enrollments during the fourth quarter, and the year-over-year decrease in net cash flow from operating activities was primarily attributable to reduced cash collection on tuition fees as a result of the temporary closure of certain learning centers during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Balance Sheet
As of December 31, 2020, the Company had combined cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash of RMB639.2 million (US$98.0 million), as compared with RMB1,022.8 million as of December 31, 2019.
Current and non-current deferred revenue and customer advances were RMB601.9 million (US$92.3 million) as of December 31, 2020, representing a decrease of 20.4% from RMB756.0 million as of December 31, 2019. The decrease was primarily because the revenue recognized for our courses and services is larger than the cash collection for the courses. Deferred revenue and customer advances mainly consisted of upfront tuition payments from students and initial franchise fees from the Company's franchisees.

Business Outlook
Following a relatively stable environment in the fourth quarter of 2020, local resurgence of COVID-19 had an impact on our operation and performance in the first quarter of 2021. Although the full economic impact of COVID-19 is yet to be realized, our current epidemic management approaches have been largely well executed. We believe that we are well-positioned to navigate the rapidly evolving market environment and capture potential opportunities in the education industry. Our learning centers in Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen and Wuxi have remained in full offline operation, and learning centers in Beijing and Shijiazhuang are expected to reopen by the end of March at a pace regulated by the government. Our flexibility to switch seamlessly between the online and offline models and our ability to manage both online and offline operations concurrently have helped us to mitigate risks and potential resurgence of COVID-19 impacting our business. Taking all this into account, we expect our revenue in the full year of 2021 to be in the range of RMB1,420 million to RMB1,730 million.

Unless otherwise stated, all translations from RMB to USD were made at the rate of RMB6.5250 to US$1.00, the noon buying rate in effect on December 31, 2020 in the H.10 statistical release of the Federal Reserve Board.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement RISE's financial results presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company uses non-GAAP financial measures, which are adjusted from results based on U.S. GAAP. Reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to U.S. GAAP financial measures are set forth in the table at the end of this earnings release entitled "Reconciliation of GAAP and Non-GAAP Results," which provides more details on the non-GAAP financial measures.
Non-GAAP cost of revenues, non-GAAP operating expenses, including non-GAAP selling and marketing expenses and non-GAAP general and administrative expenses, provides the Company with an understanding of the results from the primary operations of the Company's business by excluding the effects of certain transaction-related expenses that do not reflect the ordinary operating expenses of the Company's operations and share-based compensation.
EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP net income/(loss) provide the Company with an understanding of the results from the primary operations of the Company's business by excluding the effects of certain transaction-related expenses that do not reflect the ordinary EBITDA and net income/(loss) of the Company's operations.
The Company uses non-GAAP operating expenses, including non-GAAP selling and marketing expenses and non-GAAP general and administrative expenses, non-GAAP operating income/(loss), Non-GAAP operating margin, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income/(loss) attributable to RISE, and non-GAAP basic and diluted net income/(loss) per ADS attributable to RISE to evaluate the Company's period-over-period operating performance because the Company's management believes these provide a more comparable measure of the Company's continuing business as it adjusts for transaction-related expenses that are not reflective of the normal earnings of the Company's business. These measures may be useful to an investor in evaluating the underlying operating performance of the Company's business, and to enhance investors' overall understanding of the historical and current financial performance of the Company's continuing operations and prospects for the future.
Non-GAAP financial information should not be considered a substitute for or superior to U.S. GAAP results. In addition, calculations of this non-GAAP financial information may be different from calculations used by other companies, and therefore comparability may be limited.
Non-GAAP cost of revenues exclude relevant share-based compensation expenses and amortization of certain intangible assets ("IA") acquired as part of the 2013 acquisition from cost of revenues. Non-GAAP operating income/(loss) adds back share-based compensation expenses, amortization of certain intangible assets acquired as part of the 2013 acquisition and impairment loss on long-term investment. Each of non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP selling and marketing expenses or non-GAAP general and administrative expenses excludes relevant share-based compensation expenses and amortization of certain intangible assets acquired as part of the 2013 acquisition. EBITDA represents net income/(loss) before interests, taxes, depreciation and amortization.
