Insights

So-Young pivots to aesthetic centers driving 426% YoY growth in treatment services despite overall revenue decline and shift to net loss.

So-Young's Q2 results reveal a significant strategic transformation as their branded aesthetic centers have become the largest revenue contributor for the first time. Total revenue decreased 7.0% year-over-year to RMB378.7 million, but aesthetic treatment services revenue surged 426.1% to RMB144.4 million. This dramatic growth offset the 35.6% decline in information and reservation services to RMB135.2 million.

The company has successfully established 29 aesthetic centers across nine major Chinese cities, with 25 already achieving positive monthly operating cash flow. Their expansion strategy follows a clear development pattern - centers in the growth phase (4-12 months) generate significantly higher average revenue (RMB6.4 million per center) compared to newer locations (RMB2.6 million).

Despite the revenue transformation, profitability has suffered in this transition period. The company reported a net loss of RMB36.0 million compared to a net income of RMB18.9 million in Q2 2024. This shift to losses stems from substantial investments in expansion, with cost of revenues increasing 19.0% to RMB184.6 million, primarily driven by a 405.5% increase in aesthetic treatment services costs.

The company's cash position remains substantial at RMB998.6 million, though down from RMB1,253.2 million at year-end 2024, reflecting the ongoing investment in growth. Management has signaled continued aggressive expansion with plans to operate 50 centers by year-end and projected Q3 aesthetic treatment services revenue growth of 230.5% to 274.6%.

This vertical integration strategy marks a fundamental business model shift from a platform connecting consumers with treatment providers to becoming a direct provider of standardized aesthetic services. The transition is proving successful in scaling operations but requires significant investment that will continue to pressure near-term profitability as the company focuses on long-term market leadership.

The use of the above non-GAAP financial measures has certain limitations. Share-based compensation expenses have been and will continue to be incurred in the future. All these are not reflected in the presentation of the non-GAAP financial measures, but should be considered in the overall evaluation of the Company's results. The Company compensates for these limitations by providing the relevant disclosure of its share-based compensation expenses in the reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, which should be considered when evaluating the Company's performance. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliation of each of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is set forth at the end of this release.
