BUSINESS REVIEW AND OUTLOOK

Food delivery

During the third quarter of 2019, we further strengthened our leading position while delivering healthy operating results of our food delivery business. Our food delivery business sustained its strong growth momentum. GTV of our food delivery business increased by 40.0% to RMB111.9 billion for the third quarter of 2019 from RMB80.0 billion in the same period of 2018. The number of food delivery orders increased by 38.1% to 2.5 billion for the third quarter of 2019 from 1.8 billion in the same period of 2018. The average value per order of our food delivery business increased by 1.3% year-over-year. Monetization Rate of our food delivery business for the third quarter of 2019 remained stable year-over-year. As a result, revenue from our food delivery business increased by 39.4% year-over-year to RMB15.6 billion for the third quarter of 2019 from RMB11.2 billion in the same period of 2018. Gross profit from our food delivery business increased by 64.5% to RMB3.0 billion for the third quarter of 2019 from RMB1.9 billion in the same period of 2018, while gross margin expanded to 19.5% from 16.6%. Although gross margin decreased by 2.8 percentage points on a quarter-over-quarter basis due to unfavorable weather conditions, we were able to achieve positive adjusted operating profit2 for our food delivery business for the third quarter of 2019.

The robust growth of our food delivery business was a result of our strengthened market leadership, enhanced operational capability, and improved marketing tactics to stimulate consumers' impulse consumptions during the summer season. On the consumer front, our Food Delivery Membership Program continued to yield encouraging results, which not only further improved our target consumers' order frequency but also enhanced their stickiness to our platform. Furthermore, benefiting from the new consumption trend that healthy light meals, beverages and nighttime snacks are gaining popularity among the younger generation, our Food Delivery Membership Program has also stimulated consumption of healthy light meals, beverages and nighttime snacks throughout the summer season. As a result, our year-over-year growth rate of the number of food delivery transactions accelerated on a sequential basis during the third quarter of 2019, with the average number of daily food delivery transactions increasing by 38.1% year-over-year to 26.8 million. Such strong growth in order volume demonstrates that consumers' consumption habits can be cultivated and the demand for food delivery services still has ample growth potential in the long run.

On the merchant front, we continued to explore supply-side operations to drive more sustainable growth of the entire industry and to further enhance our long-term competitive advantages. For example, we have increased our efforts on developing comprehensive online operation solutions for selected high-quality restaurants, helping high-quality restaurants improve their food delivery operational capability, traffic generation, traffic conversion and retention rates. As a result, the number of food delivery orders generated by these selected high-quality restaurants improved significantly for the third quarter of 2019. Moreover, we continued to improve our marketplace products to provide restaurants with more useful tools for improving their marketing efficiency. For example, we introduced an online marketing design tool to automatically generate customized banner designs for restaurants in the third quarter of 2019.

2 Adjusted operating profit equals to operating profit eliminated the impacts of items, including share-based compensation expenses, amortization of intangible assets resulting from acquisitions, impairment and expense provision for Mobike restructuring plan, impairment of intangible assets, fair value changes on investments measured at fair value through profit or loss and other gains, net.

4

On the delivery front, we continued to explore innovative strategies to further refine our delivery network operations, optimize the cost structure and improve our delivery efficiency. In addition to economy of scale, during the third quarter of 2019, we mobilized our delivery capacity better based on enhanced segmentation of our delivery services to deliver user experience in a more cost-effective way under selected consumption scenarios and extreme weather conditions. Meanwhile, we continued to make efforts on enhancing our delivery riders' sense of fulfillment and corporate belonging through the "717 Riders' Day" celebration and a charity program launched for our riders' children in the third quarter of 2019.

In-store, hotel & travel

During the third quarter of 2019, we continued to strengthen the market leadership of our in-store, hotel & travel businesses, which demonstrated further strong monetization potential. The growth of GTV of our in-store, hotel & travel businesses accelerated for the third quarter of 2019, growing by 29.4% to RMB63.9 billion for the third quarter of 2019 from RMB49.3 billion in the same period of 2018. Monetization Rate increased to 9.7% from 9.0% year-over-year. Revenues from our in-store, hotel & travel businesses increased by 39.3% to RMB6.2 billion for the third quarter of 2019 from RMB4.4 billion in the same period of 2018. Gross profit from our in-store, hotel & travel businesses increased to RMB5.5 billion for the third quarter of 2019 from RMB4.0 billion in the same period of 2018, while gross margin slightly declined to 88.6% from 90.6% year-over-year, but remained flat quarter-over-quarter.

We continued to see robust revenue growth in this segment, mainly attributable to increasing revenue from our online marketing services as a result of our expanding merchant base, the revived growth of transaction-based services, and the accelerated growth in the scale of our hotel booking business. In addition, the strong growth of our food delivery business during the third quarter of 2019 further boosted user traffic and incrementally increased cross-selling opportunities for our in-store, hotel & travel businesses.

For the third quarter of 2019, we continued to unleash the potential of small and medium local merchants' unmet marketing needs through our diversified product portfolio and enhanced advertising algorithms. For the third quarter of 2019, the number of active marketing merchants in this segment continued to grow by more than 50% year-over-year.

In addition, we further improved our operational capabilities and launched more promotional campaigns to enhance our brand awareness and influence among consumers and merchants, which in turn drove the robust growth of commission revenue of our in-store business. For example, we launched the "Super Brand Food Festival" to promote fast food and in-store snacks and drinks from branded restaurants. During this festival, more than 60,000 stores under 124 well-known restaurant brands in 948 cities participated in this promotion, generating substantial sales of ice creams, coffee, desserts and others. In addition, we launched the "Chinese Valentine's Day Special Campaign" across all categories on our platform, including in-store dining, hotel, travel, beauty, leisure and entertainment. During this promotion, the volume of restaurant reservations on our platform increased by more than 300% compared with the corresponding period in prior years. Pre-holiday shopping categories, including beauty salons, spa and flower shops, and entertainment services, including overseas travel and theme parks, all enjoyed substantial improvement in consumer traffic and engagement. Moreover, we also held the "2019 Parent-Child Fantasy Day" celebration in Shanghai and over 100 renowned parent-child brands from 79 categories participated in the event, including entertainment, education, photography, restaurants and toys.

With respect to our hotel booking business, we further strengthened our leading position for the third quarter of 2019. The number of domestic room nights consumed on our platform for the third quarter of 2019 increased by 44.4% year-over-year, surpassing 100 million quarterly room nights for the first time and the average daily rate per room night also experienced a steady year-over-year increase. We continued to develop mutually beneficial collaborations with more hotels in lower-tier cities and enhanced our efforts on cross-selling hotel booking services to existing users on our platform for the third quarter of 2019, which led to the accelerated growth of domestic room nights. Furthermore, our "Hotel+X" campaign launched in April 2019 continued to stimulate the growth of our high-end hotel booking business and help high-end hotels promote their non-lodging services, such as restaurants, wedding venues, spa and gyms, thereby further substantiating their revenue streams. As a result, revenue contribution from high-end hotels further increased year-over-year for the third quarter of 2019.

New initiatives and others

Revenues from the new initiatives and others segment increased by 65.4% to RMB5.7 billion for the third quarter of 2019 from RMB3.5 billion in the same period of 2018. Gross profit of the new initiatives and others segment was positive RMB1.1 billion for the third quarter of 2019, compared to negative RMB1.3 billion for the same period last year. Gross margin was 18.7% for the third quarter of 2019, improving from negative 37.4% in the same period of 2018.

During the third quarter of 2019, with respect to our bike-sharing services, we gradually replaced some of the older version bikes with the new Meituan Bikes, which are new model of bikes painted in the color of Meituan Logo with longer life span and user experience improvements. In addition, operating losses continued to narrow meaningfully from that for the second quarter of 2019, mainly attributable to the significant reduction in depreciation because some bikes reached the end of their useful lives during the third quarter of 2019, while the new Meituan Bikes in replacement also led to lower depreciation. Consumers must unlock these new bikes through our Meituan super app, which helps to enhance our brand image, direct more traffic to our super app, and create more opportunities for cross-selling other local services. With respect to our car-hailing services, while we continued to optimize the operations of our self-operated model in Shanghai and Nanjing, we have explored the aggregated model in more cities.

With respect to our restaurant management system business, our focus remains on optimizing our products and increasing the coverage of high-quality merchants to lay a better foundation for future monetization. For the third quarter of 2019, the number of high-quality merchants continued to grow both year-over-year and quarter-over-quarter.

With respect to our grocery retail business, we continued our prudent exploration to better capture the opportunities in this space. With respect to our self-operated Meituan Grocery model, we increased warehouse density in the few cities that we currently operate in. With respect to our marketplace model, Meituan Instashopping, we also started pilot programs in ten traditional farm markets in Wuhan, helping merchants digitize their fresh product inventories and providing them with on-demand delivery services and guidance on SKU selection, pricing and traffic attraction. Meanwhile, we continued to experience strong growth in high-ticket categories, such as flower and medicine categories, in our marketplace model.

Cost of revenues for our food delivery business increased by 34.4% to RMB12.5 billion for the third quarter of 2019 from RMB9.3 billion for the same period of 2018, primarily attributable to the increase in food delivery rider costs as a result of the increase in the number of food deliveries completed.

Cost of revenues for our in-store, hotel & travel businesses increased by 68.4% to RMB704.9 million for the third quarter of 2019 from RMB418.6 million for the same period of 2018. The increase was primarily attributable to the increases in the depreciation of property, plant and equipment, the bandwidth and server custody fees relating to our data storage improvement project and the online traffic costs, which were in line with the growth of our online marketing revenue.

Cost of revenues for our new initiatives and others businesses decreased by 2.1% to RMB4.7 billion for the third quarter of 2019 from RMB4.8 billion for the same period of 2018, mainly attributable to the decreases in our car-hailingdriver-related costs in our car-hailing services and depreciation of property, plant and equipment in our bike-sharing services, partially offset by the increases in the cost of goods sold, resulting from the growth of our B2B food distribution services, and the payment processing costs, resulting from the growth of our integrated payment services.

As a result of the foregoing, our gross profit for the third quarter of 2019 and 2018 was RMB9.6 billion and RMB4.6 billion, respectively. The gross margin of our food delivery business improved by 2.9 points on a year-over-year basis as we enhanced our delivery network efficiency through economy of scale and increased revenue contribution from online marketing services. The gross margin of our in-store, hotel & travel businesses decreased by 2.0 points on a year-over-year basis, primarily attributable to (i) the increases in depreciation of property, plant and equipment and bandwidth and server custody fees, which was related to our database improvement project, and

  1. the increase in online traffic costs to support the growth of our online marketing revenue. The gross margin of our new initiatives and others businesses turned to be positive 18.7% for the third quarter of 2019, representing an improvement of 56.1 points on a year-over-year basis, mainly due to (i) the narrowed losses of our car-hailing services as we reduced incentives paid to drivers,
  1. the narrowed losses of our bike-sharing services, due to significant decrease in depreciation costs resulting from a number of bikes reaching the end of their useful lives. Meanwhile, the new Meituan Bikes in replacement with improvements and longer useful lives led to lower depreciation costs, and (iii) the expanded gains in micro loan services due to the increase in business volume.

Selling and Marketing Expenses

Professional fees for the third quarter of 2019 decreased by RMB55.4 million on a year-over-year basis, attributable to the professional fees in relation to our initial public offering incurred in the same period of 2018.

Net Provision for Impairment Losses on Financial Assets

As a result of the foregoing, our gross profit for the third quarter of 2019 and the second quarter of 2019 was RMB9.6 billion and RMB7.9 billion, respectively. The gross margin of our food delivery business reduced by 2.8 points on a quarter-over-quarter basis, due to seasonality as we paid more incentives to riders because of the high temperature in the summer season. The gross margin of our in-store, hotel & travel businesses remained relatively stable on a quarter-over-quarter basis. The gross margin of our new initiatives and others businesses improved by 9.6 points on

  1. quarter-over-quarterbasis, mainly due to (i) the narrowed losses of our bike-sharing services, which was in turn attributable to the decrease in depreciation expenses resulting from some bikes reaching the end of their useful lives, and (ii) the expanded gains in our micro loan services due to the growth of business volume.

Selling and Marketing Expenses

Our selling and marketing expenses increased to RMB5.6 billion for the third quarter of 2019 from RMB4.1 billion for the second quarter of 2019, and increased to 20.4% from 18.3% as a percentage of revenues. The increase in selling and marketing expenses was primarily due to the increases in Transacting User incentives and promotion and advertising expenses. Transacting User incentives increased to RMB2.8 billion for the third quarter of 2019 from RMB1.7 billion for the second quarter of 2019, because we paid more user subsidies to support business growth, especially for our food delivery and hotel booking businesses. Promotion and advertising expenses increased to RMB605.8 million for the third quarter of 2019 from RMB417.1 million for the second quarter of 2019 due to more promotional activities being held during the summer season.

Research and Development Expenses

Our research and development expenses increased to RMB2.1 billion for the third quarter of 2019 from RMB2.0 billion for the second quarter of 2019. The increase was primarily due to the increase in employee benefits expenses.

General and Administrative Expenses

Our general and administrative expenses were RMB1.1 billion for the third quarter of 2019, remaining flat on a quarter-over-quarter basis, and decreased to 3.8% from 4.6% quarter-over-quarter as a percentage of revenues.

Net Provision for Impairment Losses on Financial Assets

Our net provision for impairment losses on financial assets was RMB112.0 million for the third quarter of 2019, compared to RMB138.7 million for the second quarter of 2019, and decreased by 0.2 points to 0.4% as a percentage of revenues quarter-over-quarter, primarily driven by our strengthening credit management.

Fair Value Changes on Investments Measured at Fair Value through Profit or Loss

Our fair value changes on investments measured at fair value through profit or loss for the third quarter of 2019 increased by RMB487.3 million compared to the second quarter of 2019, primarily due to fair value gain from certain of our investments.

17

Other Gains, Net

Our other gains, net was a gain of RMB611.2 million for the third quarter of 2019, compared to a gain of RMB854.0 million for the second quarter of 2019. The decrease in other gains, net was primarily due to the gains of RMB176.9 million and RMB160.9 million from the remeasurement of investments and the disposal of investments, respectively, for the second quarter of 2019.

Operating Profit/(loss)

As a result of the foregoing, our operating profit for the third quarter of 2019 was RMB1.4 billion, compared to an operating profit of RMB1.1 billion for the second quarter of 2019.

Profit/(loss) before Income Tax

Primarily as a result of the foregoing, our profit before income tax for the third quarter of 2019 was RMB1.5 billion, compared to a profit before income tax of RMB1.1 billion for the second quarter of 2019.

Income Tax Expenses

We had income tax expenses of RMB127.2 million for the third quarter of 2019, decreasing by RMB98.8 million from income tax expenses of RMB226.0 million for the second quarter of 2019, primarily due to the recognition of deferred tax assets arising from a previously unrecognized temporary difference with the change of certain entities' profit position.

Profit/(loss) for the Period

As a result of the foregoing, we had a profit of RMB1.3 billion for the third quarter of 2019, compared to a profit of RMB875.8 million for the second quarter of 2019.

Reconciliation of Non-IFRS Measures to the Nearest IFRS Measures

To supplement our consolidated results which are prepared and presented in accordance with IFRS, we also use adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net profit/(loss) as additional financial measures, which are not required by, or presented in accordance with IFRS. We believe that these non-IFRS measures facilitate comparisons of operating performance from period to period and company to company by eliminating potential impacts of items that our management does not consider to be indicative of our operating performance such as certain non-cash items and certain impact of investment transactions. The use of these non-IFRS measures have limitations as an analytical tool, and one should not consider them in isolation from, or as a substitute for analysis of, our results of operations or financial conditions as reported under IFRS. In addition, these non-IFRS financial measures may be defined differently from similar terms used by other companies.

The following tables set forth the reconciliations of our non-IFRS financial measures for the third quarter of 2019 and 2018 and the second quarter of 2019 to the nearest measures prepared in accordance with IFRS.

OTHER INFORMATION

Purchase, Sale or Redemption of the Company's Listed Securities

Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries has purchased, sold or redeemed any of the Company's securities listed on the Stock Exchange during the three months ended September 30, 2019.

Audit Committee

The Audit Committee, together with the Auditor, has reviewed the Company's unaudited interim financial information for the three months ended September 30, 2019. The Audit Committee has also reviewed the accounting principles and practices adopted by the Company and discussed auditing, risk management, internal control and financial reporting matters.

Events after the Reporting Period

Save as disclosed in this announcement, there was no other significant events that might affect the Company since the end of the three months ended September 30, 2019.

Compliance with the Corporate Governance Code

The Company is committed to maintaining and promoting stringent corporate governance standards. The principle of the Company's corporate governance is to promote effective internal control measures and to enhance the transparency and accountability of the Board to all shareholders.

The Company has adopted the principles and code provisions of the CG Code set out in Appendix 14 to the Listing Rules as the basis of the Company's corporate governance practices.

Save for code provision A.2.1, the Company has complied with all the code provisions set out in the CG Code where applicable during the three months ended September 30, 2019. Pursuant to code provision A.2.1 of the CG Code, companies listed on the Stock Exchange are expected to comply with, but may choose to deviate from the requirement that the responsibilities between the chairman and the chief executive officer should be segregated and should not be performed by the same individual. The Company does not have separate chairman and chief executive officer and Mr. Wang Xing currently performs these two roles. The Board believes that vesting the roles of both chairman and chief executive officer in the same person has the benefit of ensuring consistent leadership within the Company and enables more effective and efficient overall strategic planning for the Company. The Board considers that the balance of power and authority for the present arrangement will not be impaired and this structure will enable the Company to make and implement decisions promptly and effectively. The Board will continue to review and consider segregating the roles of chairman of the Board and the chief executive officer of the Company at an appropriate time by taking into account the circumstances of the Company as a whole.

Compliance with the Model Code for Securities Transactions by Directors

The Company has adopted the Model Code for Securities Transactions by Directors of Listed Issuers (the "Model Code") as set out in Appendix 10 to the Listing Rules as its own code of conduct regarding Directors' securities transactions. Having made specific enquiries of all Directors, each of the Directors has confirmed that he has complied with the required standards as set out in the Model Code during the three months ended September 30, 2019.

Publication of the Interim Results and Interim Report

All the financial and other related information of the Company required by the Listing Rules will be published on the website of each of the Stock Exchange (www.hkexnews.hk) and the Company (about. meituan.com)in due course.

APPRECIATION

On behalf of the Board, I would like to express our sincere gratitude to our consumers, merchants and partners for their trust in our platform, our delivery riders for their reliable and efficient services, our entire staff and management team for their outstanding contributions, and our shareholders for their continuous support.
