We continue to drive LGBTQ awareness.

A recent example was the lots of Love go home campaign.

All percentage changes on a year over year basis, unless otherwise specified.

Detailed analysis is contained in our earnings press release, which is available on our earnings release as well as our IR website.

Total revenues increased by 24, 2% to RMB $278 8 million.

Driven by better monetization of our diverse services offerings.

Revenue from overseas contribution.

Five per cent of the total revenue increased from $5 one per cent and the same periods of last year.

Quarterly paying users on the blue the App increased by 37, 9% to 518000.

Revenue from lots of drilling services was RMB 223, 9 million up 18, 7%.

Mainly due to more paying users and the higher average spending per user of luck streaming services.

Our quarterly paying users for live streaming services increased eight 6% two of 144000.

Arpus or RMB 1550, an increase of nine zero percent compared to the same period of last year.

In the fourth quarter, we launched the new large streaming strategy, let's drive the engagement a large group of our middle layer of long tail users with limited spending power such as promoting the new features to enhance the participation.

And developing more.

First the purchase of incentive features to cultivate the paying habits.

This new strategy complements our current high spend the program and provided the differentiated of diverse options to different cohorts of users.

On the supply side of luck dreaming of invoicing.

The voting more tenants agencies kind of promoting more individual large streamers to join other kinds of agencies.

The initiatives create a good ecosystem for consistent improvement and producing higher quality diversified of content and in turn to attract and retain our users.

The adjustments of strategy brought temporary pressure on our short term performance of loss range of services.

But we believe the strategy provide.

<unk> solutions and it will pave the way for a more sustainable model, which can be exported to our oversea market and the other product portfolios.

Yes.

Revenue from our membership services was RMB $22 2 million up 46, 5%.

Our quarterly paying users for the membership services increased $51 five per cent to 415000.

Yeah.

Part of me 400 in the 15000.

While the Arpus you walk RMB 53, six roughly flat compared to the same period of last year.

We expect accelerated growth for our membership services as we drive most of Asia efforts in both domestic and overseas markets.

Revenues from advertising were 19 point of view.

<unk> up $35 four per cent.

Other revenues were 13.7 million up 100, and the eight 7% driven by growth he held merchandize.

Cost of revenues increased by 29.0% to 200, and the $9 3 million.

So <unk> is composed mainly of the revenue sharing costs and the commission costs the.

The increase in <unk> was primarily due to two reasons.

The seasonal effect is usually share of higher incentive to streaming of jewelry our unions of events.

Specialty for the year to celebrate our successful IPO, we offered and even the higher year end the bonus to our best performing kind of agencies of the last streamers.

Of the special tax.

Second as.

As we mentioned the new strategy that we launched the luxury surfaces.

Which resulted in higher cost.

However, we believe it will generate the higher lifetime value and increased transaction volume and the frequencies.

We expect the those investments will be paid off in the second half of 2021.

Gross profit was $69 5 million.

11, 8%.

Gross margin was 24, 9% of compared to $27.

Of the same period last year the.

The year over year decreasing the gross margin was mainly due to the relative slower growth of live streaming service revenue.

The one time lots of drilling related costs for this quarter.

Operating expenses were $143 6 million of 82, 5% due to increased selling and the marketing expenses and the staff salaries.

IPO related share based to accomplish this year.

Selling and marketing expenses were $49 7 million up 56, 7% due to higher advertising and promotions in the overseas markets and increase the head count in sales and marketing personnel.

Technology and the development expenses were 17.

Excuse me.

$37 3 million up net.

Zero percent.

The increase was mainly due to the increase of staff cost in technology and the development personnel.

G&A expenses were $56 5 million up $345 five per cent.

Adjusted net loss was RMB 36 zero million compared with adjusted net loss of RMB 15.0 million last year.

For the full year of 2020 of total revenue increased by 35, 9% to one point of 3 billion driven by the increasing the total paying users of our online services and the diversity of our revenue streams.

Gross profit was 311.0 million up 46, 2%.

Gross margin was 32% improved by two two percentage points from 28.0% in the same period last year.

Net loss from 'twenty to 'twenty was RMB 200 end of 'twenty, one 9 million compared with net loss of RMB $52 9 million in 2019.

The adjusted net loss from 2020 was 39 9 million neurons from the adjusted net loss of RMB $52 9 million in 2019.

As of December 31, 2020, we had cash and cash equivalents of term deposits of RMB 600.

The $11 8 million.

Compared to RMB 300.

$80 3 million as of December 31st of 2019.

Now, let me talk about next year's guidance.

We expect our revenue outlook of RMB 141 billion to RMB 146 billion for the full year 2021, representing a 37% to 42% year over year growth. However, the year over year of growth for the first quarter of 2021.

We will remain relatively slower primarily due to our newly adopted the new downstream strategy as well as a large increase in the number of paying users first of quarter 2020. During the COVID-19 outbreak, which resulted in an unexpected revenue growth.

We expect of the robust revenue growth will resume in the second half of 2021.

Sales for the first question regarding the growth strategy in 2021.

I will answer this question for Pat.

First is the <unk>.

Monetization opportunity overseas and we see a great potential Oh, this market, especially in light of training and the weather and the membership services.

Before that we are in the by the very early.

The stage of monetization overseas and we really have the opera.

Operations in light of training and provide more membership service products and offerings to acuity of age.

Paying habits of our fifth year of it.

Therefore, with the of huge potential of revenue growth overseas.

<unk> is the revenue contribution from fee income.

And one of them.

After like three months of integration with fee income with some of that there is the pew plenty of room to grow so think of the business, especially.

In light of training and the membership services.

With some of that based on seeing cuts the user profile they have a higher.

Hi of willingness to pay for high quality of service at current.

Lifting costs revenue structure tend to be more healthier, it's like more than 30% from lack of training.

Around certain percentage from advertising and another 40 per cent from.

Membership services.

Therefore that leveraging all of our.

Financial support and the technical technology support we will offer more features in lack of training and in membership services.

To drive our paying ratio.

Of being caught you with it.

Third is that we would continue to see that the huge.

Huge growth opportunities in Blue membership services.

The driver of <unk>.

For core of everything it flipped the.

The opportunity for he healthy it's huge.

We started from HIV related with docs slumped, providing a kind of related services and zone will become quickly and that's the way it service scope into more housing privacy related services.

And into.

Well being of mass house.

The last question comes from the line of Austin model of Canaccord Genuity.

Question.

Yes.

Hi, Thanks for taking my questions within live streaming can you talk about which products have the most meaningful revenue contribution currently and what new products have the most of the potential for growth going forward.

Oh two transmission none.

Net of infusions.

Think of often that's not enough to hear you again all of this is Ben and I will do the translation to Mr of my first.

Part of him and pieces of look take a true for July syntax, you've kind of Negro sugar in the in country choosing the dose and if at all of hard to shipyard among all of them.

Geez I realize other triggers.

Yeah.

Sure sure Yahoo go to a true to your channel either.

Maybe I'll call, that's what I'm Gonna do you usually have to actually take the sometime down the income the man.

So I'm sort of equivalent of John the Parliament and the courts on combination of $2.

Julie.

Hi, Austin This is Dan I'll, just do the transmission of myself. Okay makes the mark just to explain that a pool for existing revenue part of that to the apart from the loss of dreaming, he deemed or the management of beams knocked out. The membership services revenue is going to is is actually picking up very majority.

Are important.

So off of now and the full future the most of the potential of.

The impact to revenue service Pi contribute contributor is coming from the house health related services offering.

And then sends from I've.

I think you got 92 billion of kind of hard from without an EBIT of one I think Angela on.

Of the Florida take our dice and the channel Fucci, who should really not familiar with and get on the table.

On the go from downtime of sure you're all function from you all.

About him being quoted Gencon digital channel.

Thank you Peter good Taco to nil, so the woman shrunk the tiny.

The TV, that's the the materiality of Atlanta, Google about kind of central to sales.

The $2 six or anything you could share.

It will show up next year, the Dupont pioneer she was one of the industry trend.

So the 19 inch and the.

So some of them once you begin to do the when it went from two to five.

Regarding the so called the house related service is actually it is mainly related to private treatment for men of hearing China. So currently we do see the HIV related treatment for the pre the.

Prophylaxis.

Exposure prophylaxis in the.

Post.

The treatment et cetera, actually that the the HIV.

Community here in China, we had our internal analysis ease of around 1 million 1 million population. So we do see it is going to be a huge because you know people have to taking lifetime of drugs to get them get a qualify the treatment. So we do see it is going to.

A recurring revenue and about the entry ports for us to get into Theyre not to mention that you know HIV treatment. He's the only of start who are the primary treatment of come out of here in China and also other you know and demands from from US on like you know the Harry issue.

The sexual malfunction issue et central Austin.

Thank you for that just following up a little bit.

What live streaming products drive the most live streaming revenue.

And.

What are some new lifestyle products, we are excited about it.

The interest in crafting of our two might translate.

I'm asking really is going on to the ones that I can assure that to the border to the Italian yet tempting the wheel goosing. The true good so you want before filing the shelf.

Since you introduced it in country.

Sort of to be the new home sales.

Well, then my house, Sean Kang of Qunar, Charlie I'm hogging them.

And one of the dog iOS, which of one or two board kind of create that one between price and called my promise to you one of the hallmark of Triple agenda. The Homer Jonathan that's total of how much of your progenitor of Hadoop. We went for the honeymoon such as yourself of how the hallmark of it didn't go down the hall. She could you quantify how did you push any of the lifestyle fashion.

The holiday shopping.

The controllable non traditional in the hydrogen extra suite of teaching sounds like on the go to the Tomo Township.

Austin.

We have to say you know this so called virtual gifting model philosophy, I mean, you've kind of flow.

Existing four years, so we keep innovating by developing new features trying every effort to figure out what to do to better leverage of our position for live streaming revenue service contribution to our revenue pie and the what leaves tomorrow exploring the only one example of that Oh, that's two minor okay.

Because of his earlier speech was also mentioned as you know currently our revenue mainly from the people who per.

The virtual gift of platform right, so actually the leader of.

Sooner or later, we are going to develop a new feature of that is actually.

The luxury months might purchase some services features from the platform so basically.

We are telling you that we are going to just not doing the monetization from the viewers. The audio side, but also from the left from my side. That's number one number two of Mr. Joseph The AD is not.

Uh huh.

For example, we're going to create some interesting functions like you know I'm thinking the like the number of the June number you know you know how important sport usual number.

For the Lucky trial here in China, right, you know number of snakes number eight meaning Lockheed et cetera. So we're going to give up something like that sort of you're picking the bamboo. So we're keep innovating from time to time, yeah Austin.

Okay. Thank you that's very helpful.

My last question is regarding competition when you launch into new overseas markets for.

For example, in Latin America, where you're focusing in 2021 day.

Typically find.

One two.

Well entrenched competitors.

That are already there or is it typically a very fragmented market that doesn't have.

Any scaled competitors.

The C V answerable, but anyway on TV, the due to a whole bunch of syndrome.

All of them that argument on the Internet at home, if we kind of.

Good luck of the Sungard in conjunction with whoever wins out of the HIFU for Sukhoi. The first on the cell lines that are really doesn't matter of fact.

Well then just leave you made when you go to all of you and you're sure well known fashion.

Do you notice all of the.

The good yard you wish at home.

We won't see the out of Chicago.

With the group C. When the enemy.

Actually most of the grocery shops, you found that it actually would you take the Lula Li Hello, sometimes the Tijuana when the assembly in June of that you know the shoulder.

So that I think of it.

So you can call the take up you've learned do you simply don't yet, but when the negroni out at all.

The Jim can take our time in the Beaumont the deep honestly the woman threshold of.

For the laundry detergent, where she wanted to take the allow me abandon the bloody Truecar channel will come true.

The young until the time it sounds yeah, that's one driver.

Three of the Sudan are politically you win one of the sometimes they even thought at all about in Dubai with some commentary the ebay so well near the tail end.

The true reality to us from Columbia D. G about the issue of having to take the feet on the type of Uh Huh ballroom.

Of all the iron ore tons of how much acreage mentioned are true.

In light of day to answer your question. What you all are well you get a little hot.

So you know when they're going away. So anyone of you go one GAAP you'll use it to the other one.

Like the chute hungry man.

Some of them again.

Now with me wishing him a lot of me too.

It's the way of women the are going into Chicago, and Washington, The Thiago your daughters won't one of the selection of Hollywood law not sure now well then the go quite so let's wait until the top of our top of what the.

The Shaw asking actually.

In Latin America, the only one named actually the film.

Famous the USPI to comparator of all of us.

Already there and the due to the population you know you know Latin America of having a large population of over the year and also the.

User behavior.

Lots of product towards kind of very popular already on site. So basically.

Come on or are we entering two of those new markets.

Have to deal with it very carefully stocking from the market analysis, you know we.

The view, we engage with third party consultants on the standard you know the user behavior of engagement.

Based on those local players and the local users.

On a general matter and also we identify those gaps are the demands of the users locally have not been satisfied by the existing player. So back to your question directly that's the only one meaningful.

Peer in Latin American market, yet still there are some came out of that we see we do see a huge opportunity we could do something meaningful over there in general Austin.
