Meanwhile, Yangpu port in Hainan Island will be developed into an international container hub port in southern China, under the country's 14th five-year plan. With its new Hainan strategy, Secoo strives to capitalize on the tremendous opportunities presented by Hainan's free trade port-driven development. |

Pursuant to the strategic agreement, both parties will establish a resource sharing mechanism in the areas of supply chain systems, marketing promotion, and livestreaming shopping. |
| · | In May 2021, Secoo formed the strategic partnership agreement with Hainan Province Transport Investment Holding Company Limited and Hainan Expressway. The signing parties will work together on a variety of areas including consumer finance, supply chain, bonded goods distribution and SaaS. |
| · | In May 2021, Secoo assisted an array of international luxury brands, such as Bedat & Co, Selmark and Allegri, to launch new products at the inaugural China International Consumer Products Expo. These efforts not only provided an exhibition platform for a stunning selection of fashion from all over the world, but also facilitated overseas brands' entry into the Chinese market. |
First Half 2021 Financial Results

2
Total revenues for the first six months of 2021 were RMB1,525.6 million (US$236.3 million), compared with RMB2,311.5 million for the same period in 2020. This decrease was primarily attributable to a slowdown in demand of discretionary spending and delayed logistics services worldwide due to the lingering impact of global COVID-19 pandemic, as well as the increasing proportion of marketplace businesses in the revenue mix.
Cost of revenues for the first six months of 2021 decreased by 37.0% to RMB1,223.1 million (US$189.4 million) for the first six months of 2021 from RMB1,941.1 million for the same period in 2020, primarily due to the decrease in total revenues.
Gross profit was RMB302.5 million (US$46.9 million) for the first six months of 2021, compared with RMB370.4 million for the same period in 2020.
Gross Margin reached 19.8% for the first six months of 2021, compared with 16.0% for the same period in 2020.

Marketing expenses for the first six months of 2021 decreased by 14.3% to RMB118.0 million (US$18.3 million) from RMB137.7 million for the same period in 2020. The decrease was primarily due to reduced rent expenses, as well as decreased staff costs.
Technology and content development expenses for the first six months of 2021 slightly decreased by 0.4% to RMB54.5 million (US$8.4 million) from RMB54.7 million for the same period in 2020.
General and administrative expenses for the first six months of 2021 decreased by 32.2% to RMB55.1 million (US$8.5 million) from RMB81.4 million for the same period in 2020. The decrease was primarily attributable to decreased consulting service fees and office rental expenses.
Loss from operations for the first six months of 2021 was RMB8.3 million (US$1.3 million), compared with an income of RMB13.3 million for the same period in 2020.
Non-GAAP loss from operations, which excludes share-based compensation expenses, was RMB6.0 million (US$0.9 million) for the first six months of 2021, compared with non-GAAP income from operations of RMB18.3 million for the same period in 2020.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement our consolidated financial statements which are presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we also use non-GAAP income from operations, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income attributable to ordinary shareholders of Secoo Holding Limited, and non-GAAP basic and diluted net income per share and ADS as additional non-GAAP financial measures. We present these non-GAAP financial measures because they are used by our management to evaluate our operating performance. We define non-GAAP income from operations as income from operations excluding share-based compensation expenses. We define non-GAAP net income as net income excluding share-based compensation expenses. We define non-GAAP net income per share as non-GAAP net income attributable to ordinary shareholders of Secoo Holding Limited dividing by weighted average number of basic and diluted share outstanding, including the dilutive effect of share-based awards as determined under the treasury stock method. We define non-GAAP basic and diluted net income per ADS as non-GAAP basic and diluted net income per share divided by two as two ADSs represent one ordinary share. We also believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our consolidated results of operations in the same manner as our management and in comparing financial results across accounting periods and to those of our peer companies.
The use of non-GAAP financial measures has certain limitations. These non-GAAP measures exclude certain items that have been and will continue to be incurred in the future and are not reflected in the presentation of the non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and should not be considered a substitute for or superior to U.S. GAAP results. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures utilized by other companies since such other companies may not calculate such measures in the same manner as Secoo does.
Reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure is set forth at the end of this release.
