Before we go over the numbers just a few housekeeping I haven't seen the mens we believe year over year comparisons are the most useful way to judge our performance. Therefore, essentially the changes aren't going to it will it be.

On a year over year basis, and all figures are U P unless otherwise noted.

The total net revenue in the third quarter increased by 20% to $2 9 billion.

That's revenues front I don't know increased by 29% to $1 1 billion, mainly driven by increases in order volume of interest.

<unk> services to chain machines.

Revenues from J D D J increased by 16% to one 8 billion.

Mainly due to the increase in G&A.

Increasing online marketing services revenue as a result of the increasing promotional activities also contributed to the revenue growth of J D. D J.

Moving over to the expenses side.

<unk> and the support costs were too high then.

The increase was primarily due to an increase in <unk> cost as a result of increasing order volume for intra city delivery services provided to various chain merchants.

Many of the marketing expenses and a decrease of two 1 billion, primarily due to decreasing advertising and the marketing expenses and a decrease in incentives.

Moving to the DJ consumers.

G&A expenses decreased to 13 9 million as a result of decreased amortization of Phineus cooperation agreement and the non competes amendments related with the acquisition of J D. D. J E. T 16, which was substantially amortized as of June 32023.

And reduce the share based compensation expenses as well as efficient expense control measures.

R&D expenses decreased to nine.

The 94 million, mainly due to lower.

R&D personnel costs as we enhance our accretion efficiencies.

non-GAAP net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders was.

It was $9 million, a significant improvement compared with the loss of 217 million in the third quarter of 192, non-GAAP net loss margin was 23% improving by 11 percentage points year over year.

As of September 30th tons, you're kind of history, we had.

$4 4 billion in cash cash equivalents.

Cash and short term investments, achieving an increase as compared with the balance as of the end of 'twenty.

'twenty two.

In terms of the outlook for the first quarter of consistent history. We expect total revenue to be between street in the industry 3 billion, representing a year over year growth rate of 12%.

23.

3%. So this concludes our prepared remarks and <unk>.

Starting from mid to late October and running all the way through.

November.

So trying to first two three weeks of October.

Brown sand.

Supermarkets, and the consumer electronics categories, where on the softer side.

Two factors.

An increase in optical.

Joining us from China.

After all.

During the double 11 shopping festival.

We've seen a decent recovery and growth rate is actually a supermarket category.

Primarily thanks to our athletes and prioritizing value and our customers savings on top of our convenience of one hour delivery that we provide.

We've seen decent growth for the supermarket category.

Well when they show up in that country.

So this is actually Chris with J P M.

Of course, we've got to look at the surface of Huntsville.

So it's hanging in there.

We would then take the south central and especially equation some choppy.

Sure.

So foolish every time you choose to.

Super Super.

Okay.

Overall, the consumption markets recovering.

In two different categories, however, spending and services, including timing and accommodation entertainment and tourism continue to outpace.

Spending and physical goods. In addition, the need for on demand retail is less prominent and outdoor.

Foodservice consumption.

Hum.

Oh I meant that keeps it sounds really cool Gucci, there, you'll see quite as much yet.

The overall take the tons of the central.

Do you think about so let's take a look at.

So at least with the Hudson Bay.

Neither of these trends, we will continue to focus on consolidating our strengths on the supply side and optimizing the user experience.

Our traffic growth on J D has been outpacing our user growth as we gained access to new entry points on the JD App for example.

It'll be a feature.

And.

Flash sale with panelists.

Enabling our merchants to generate incremental exposure.

The social and merchant ship when did you mention that since essentially on par with MTV <unk> didn't do that you don't change it.

John It's Joe on teaching them with you and of course, you want Shelley.

Apart from the incremental touch points with gains.

Also making progress in the existing.

User interfaces.

In terms of the search readout for example, easily J P. Dot com has been testing.

The impact of Jd's changing algorithm.

J D E J platform.

Let me caution ourselves with the opportunity to move the showpiece of TV Youtube assumption.

And then the G&A sort of sampling and the usage.

We achieved another chapter.

We believe our assertion that service not only provide JD users with high quality products and faster delivery offer competitive prices.

And from our retail partners strength and the supply chain.

<unk> is able to provide it back to you.

Thanks Aaron.

And all three dimension itself.

Prices and services.

As a result, we believe that these new traffic allocation mechanism, but benefits Josh it as well in the long term.

So that's something that we now have a phone call to Youtube.

We saw some good deals.

As with <unk>.

So we didn't and that's why you should take it from there.

Susan.

How should us advantage in terms of product quality and diversity as well as delivery Speediness is south Africans.

I would like to.

More on the price competitiveness of alright, Josh at Actavis.

Well first of all let me answer it sounds as Ashish on the podium.

Two utility that's found out that the amendment Luke and you got to do this all with a caution that because some key development potential with the sanctions to Hollywood and transition to production too.

So the years of experience and offline retail attain merchants, we are cooperating with usually have already built with strong supply chain capabilities.

<unk> provides consumers with competitive process.

In particular and put our categories, such as fresh burgers, and heavy and bulky items, where you just mentioned.

Uh huh.

G with Soma just ensure that she felt.

So depending on really cheap and some for sure. This is Sean.

Or is that totally switching for Nancy.

<unk>, which is what I'm trying to think.

So for that particular year, there's no long lead to shelters.

When we think about <unk>.

In addition, conducting hotel business on top of other existing offline stores require or required literal incremental rental and personal personnel costs well they tell us.

Lower selling expense ratio.

Significant room for our retail partners to offer lower prices.

How should our channel and to provide our consumers with a more value for money items.

So that I assumed and social programs.

We launched two sessions with you soon.

Looking at our operational results.

J D again to emphasize the pricing factor in March alright exposure among J D sections outs have maintained remarkable growth.

Encore in Q3, the daily average such exposure.

Supermarket's category increased by 50%.

Second one of course, it sounds easy to shell.

In addition, the percentage of how a price competitive product.

Okay.

Ah stay to add about 30% during the November 11 shopping festival.

Many of the overall competitiveness of our products.

Thank you for your question.

Okay.

The next question comes from Thomas Chong with Jefferies. Please go ahead.

Hi, Good morning, Thanks management for taking my questions. My first question is about GTT, Jay you'll be economics.

Kill switch can management share about the takeaway and the expense ratio for different items and on that one.

Should we think about.

Do the economics as we go into Chinese plentiful what are the drivers behind.

And my second question is about.

The all to all opportunities.

In China.

<unk> mentioned in the prepared remarks, the market size is huge but on the other hand, we also see.

The competitive landscape.

It's also quite intense as well so just wanted to get some thoughts from management about how we think about the landscape and trying to turn a fault and on that front.

What is the long term.

That margin.

We're expecting.

In.

In the coming years.

Thank you.

So step one in changzhou Shlomo that humans.

The carbon tissue Kuan Yew J P D J D E.

I'm sorry.

Bhutan iPhone Benny Tricia, you don't hold a woman.

Christina G T J good economics.

Gotcha.

A light of Samsung compound, Nick I'll take rate.

Expense ratio that you guys got shot.

<unk> Kwon huge and go hungry.

A woman combo.

Demand <unk> Jacob quietly go based on quite well.

Well, meaning guy doing.

Good.

Competition that youre kind of Oh, you're finally, starting to sound like you'll hold stable been challenging direct margin.

But at the same type of TPI cause he can be definitely something fishy.

Thank you Thomas this is Max so Jesse.

Yes, your first question.

Jeff can take the second question so.

Terms of the monetization of JD Vijay in Q3.

The monetization rate was increased to 10%.

In Q3, which is the first time, we pass through like the 10% threshold.

Historically and at the same time.

In our consumer incentives was.

Further decreased to three 3%.

Which is either like decreasing on a Q on Q basis or year over year basis.

Pan.

<unk> cost.

Including rider cost packaging cost was four 7% which is.

Decrease on year over year.

While increased Jiangsu.

Basically because the seasonality in summer.

Campaign.

And in terms of the.

For example in that country.

Therefore, a major driver of steel we will keep to increased commission on our marketing and manufacturing all right and then at the same time, we will.

Further.

Decrease our.

Consumer incentives.

Fences and also operating costs.

Side to further enhance our.

There are some margin.

On a year over year basis.

And also in terms of the last question. Your second question in terms of the long term margin. So basically as we have talked about previously so J D. J is could be.

And that netted to two like the traditional E Commerce platform, which is just a localized version so.

In terms of like the appreciating.

Operation profit again, Jamie generated through the platform. So we are a marketplace model neutral platform model. So sure be targeted as a 3% as a percentage of <unk> hour.

Operating non-GAAP operating profit for J P J.

Thank you.

Yeah.

Okay.

Like I said the other players.

Thank you.

She's not going into the Olympics.

No.

So that's it.

Daughter, we retained the economic impact that you've seen.

Congrats on the scenario assuming is in that sense, a hernia there to their financial needs.

Well, thank you Jason.

Tinder inclusion message we call it either.

Under the program since I could see that Youll see the need.

Two quick questions.

Now I'd like to share some thoughts on your second question.

Competitive landscape.

The fact that more leading internet companies are prioritizing.

<unk> retail business.

<unk> has great potential and we believe the industry can easily accommodate different players to grow right around fleet and their respective areas of strength.

Cumulative catch IBM saw some gaps where they can achieve chairman so you'll see events within that group.

I think what the EU on the pipeline that we need to see students with some of the simple with the payment.

But should that same timeline on chicken with this impact.

So it sounds healthy manner.

Is it sort of alluded to by challenging that sends out a message.

So Jim we intend to more of a move up in the total neutral zone.

Hi, Joe.

Let's see if we could squeeze your assortments issue in this quarter Q2.

Well J D J, firstly, our strengths and extensive partnership with pay merchants remains rock solid.

As a result of our positioning as an open end mutual platform as well as our accumulated know how and expertise and empower and retailers.

Carrier systems and services.

Mentions ecosystem with no. It is hard to replicate and short time other platforms.

And supermarket category, we've on boarded 93 out of the top 100 tanks in China.

Edition in categories, such as smartphones and mom and baby.

Also teamed up with most of the leading chain retailers in China.

This abundance of high quality supply and is the basis for us to continuously attract and retain users.

But also on our new two new ships with simple Timna, we don't put the chimney.

So if we don't buy them.

Michelle <unk> chooses to exercise Susan.

So pretty consistent with the Q2.

So.

Whichever mutations, which agenda video Simpson ICU agenda.

$2 million for Tim mentioned, you'll mutual goals future.

So if there's something to announce our opinion sort of the thing that comes out of the yard Shaw.

So challenging changing million puts on tissue.

So the increase is coming down.

So in two townships in Tampa.

Yes.

Central is about changing that.

Secondly, we enjoy huge potential and penetrating more of Jd's gives us.

Currently internet companies are focusing on cultivating the mindset for on demand retail among our own user base.

Which means limited head on competition among one another.

<unk> users are inherently purposeful sharpest demand higher merchandise quality and delivery speed.

It's more efficient for us to convert them into on demand retail consumers and we remain confident.

In penetrating 50% of the J D user base in the long run.

That's one thing.

Since I'm from other tissues.

Introduces a cow to as soon as it turns out you need to keep them.

So Chen Tong secrets issue the tender.

Google Johann look with your tribute to focus on the Saudi Tivo content concordant and send them to me.

J J you lose if you take which is the sense you should consider.

Certainly in the knee.

Poussaint divisions with Kimpton, San Vicente within Kodak, Credentialing, Brooklyn, cognizant, when challenged with Huntsville cheaper under you knew that need it.

And thirdly on top.

Jim took out T. So that's I'm not sure.

Paul can you find yourself.

For taking my questions. My first question is a follow.

A follow up on our management comment regarding the supermarket and.

Electronics category before to think I think the first three weeks of October and then single stage rebounds, and so just wondering what is the demand trend posting does state that you are expecting for supermarket and non supermarket category and then second question is on the cost of riders.

So can I understand the increase in the cost of writers is related to.

These intra city delivery is at and heating related depending on the type of the chain merchants that you're servicing.

And which specific order demand during this <unk> that resulted in the higher rider cost do we expect a higher rider cost into <unk> given it is a promotional season and potentially coda later thank you.

Thank you Alicia so lesser academia gesture.

Two questions. So for the first question. So it's just like we can so we finished like Pam.

Campaign, so still there.

And then.

I don't think there is enough time for us to evaluate.

Three days.

Daily sales to give you some color or comment for the post pandemic campaigns trained.

In terms of the second question. So about the right account. So in terms of the absolute dollar amount of the rider costs, Yes, it's increase either on Q on Q level year over year cost overall, and it's still growing robustly, especially our.

I don't know if this is growing by 29%, but within which.

Accounts.

It's growing 5%.

We have discussed that before so.

So this is just the cost overruns and yes, it's growing in terms of like the.

The unit cost at <unk>.

The order level or Kurt.

Jimmy level basically.

<unk>.

Efficient and safe.

On a year over year basis and.

In Q3, basically because usually it's the.

The summer season so.

It takes more to recruit and retain riders compared to springtime or.

Autumn season.

So in Q4, we believe our year over year basis, our price.

Our unit cost.

For the riders will decrease on a year over year basis.

Okay.

Thank you you bet.

Our next question comes from Lane, Zhang with Bank of America. Please go ahead.

Specifically and August compared with July the overall conversion rate of our supermarkets category improved by over 10% and then <unk>.

We've taken out the rising popularity of live streaming.

The single day promotion I guess ended J D. D. J launched multiple live streaming events, together with merchants and brands and categories, including supermarkets consumer electronics and home appliances.

This was the first time.

Our frontline professional teams.

Net revenues from <unk> increased by 29% to $1 1 billion, mainly driven by increases in order volume of interest.

<unk> services to chain machines.

Revenues from <unk> increased by 16% to one eight.

And then mainly due to the increase in G&A, increasing on our marketing services revenue as a result of the increasing promotional activities also contributed to the revenue growth of J D. D J.

Moving over to the expenses side operations and support costs were too high then.

The increase was primarily due to an increase in <unk> cost as a result of increasing order volume for interested your delivery services provided to various chain merchants.

Selling and marketing expenses decreased to two 1 billion, primarily due to decreasing advertising and the marketing expenses and a decrease in incentives.

Given to the DJ consumers.

G&A expenses decreased to 13 9 million as a result of decreased amortization of finished cooperation agreement and the non competes commitments related to the acquisition of J D. D. J E. T 16, which was substantially amortized as of June 32023.

And reduce the share based compensation expenses as well as efficient expense control measures.

Gross of supermarkets, and consumer electronics categories were on the softer side.

Two factors.

With an increase in optical.

Outdoor and travelling demand affected.

Factset purchasing frequency.

Overall, the consumption market is recovering.

Moving into different categories, however, spending and services, including dining and accommodation entertainment and tourism continue to outpace.

The spending and physical goods. In addition, the need for on demand retail is less prominent and outdoors and ambulance foodservice consumption.

We will maintain our debt to the surface ships.

And I think you said century nickel cool curitiba, you'll see quite as much yet.

The overall answer the central.

Do you think about so let's take a look at.

So Lisa I'll hesitate.

Neither of these trends, we will continue to focus on consolidating our strengths on the supply side and optimizing the user experience.

Flash sales channels, which enables our merchants to generate incremental exposure.

There's also a fundamental shift when did you mention that since essentially on par with MTV auto tends to dilute our kinship.

Susan.

How should us advantage in terms of product quality and diversity.

As well as delivery Speediness is self evident.

I would like to elaborate more on the price competitiveness of our assumption as others.

Well first of all let me answer it sounds as Ashish on the podium.

Two utility that's hung down that amendment Luke.

She's going to serve as a caution that because some key developments potential sanctions to how with anthem.

So the years of experience and offline retail attain merchants, we are cooperating with usually have already built with strong supply chain capabilities.

In particular and put our categories, such as fresh burgers, and heavy and bulky items, where you just mentioned.

In addition, conducting hotel business on top of other existing offline stores require.

Literal incremental rental and personal personnel costs well they tell us.

How should our channel and to provide our consumers with a more value for money items.

So that I assumed and social programs.

Looking at our operational results.

Yes, J D began to emphasize the pricing factor in March alright exposure among J D sections outs have maintained remarkable growth for example in Q3, the daily average such exposure should.

The testimony of the <unk>.

Overall price competitiveness of our talks about products.

Thank you for your question.

Yeah.

Okay.

The next question comes from Thomas Chong with Jefferies. Please go ahead.

Hi, Good morning, Thanks management for taking my questions. My first question is about GTT, Jay you'll be economics.

<unk> Suisse can management share about.

The takeaway and the expense ratio for different items and on that front, how should we think about.

Do the economics, as we go into China and whatnot.

The drivers behind.

And my second question is about.

The all to all opportunities.

In China.

<unk> mentioned in the prepared remarks, the market size is huge but on the other hand, we also see.

The competitive landscape.

It's also quite intense as well so just wanted to get some thoughts from management about how we think about the landscape in China trying to fall.

And on that front.

What is the long term.

That margin that we are expecting.

In.

In the coming years.

Thank you.

So step one in changzhou Shlomo that humans.

The carbon tissue Kuan Yew J D D J D E.

I'm sorry.

Uh huh.

Ben Shim, you'll hold a woman can see me.

T J good economics.

Gotcha.

A light of unsung compound rate.

<unk> ratio that you got guys that are what.

<unk> continues to go hungry.

A woman combo local on demand <unk> Jakafi quietly go based on Eagle Bancorp.

The main guy doing.

Good your project should competition that you've got kind of a pause.

Could you give us some wholesale will be challenging, but you've got direct margin.

I'm sorry, the TPI.

So you can diversify yourself.

Thank you Thomas this is.

Yes, your first question.

Jeff can take the second question so.

Terms of the monetization of J J in Q3.

The monetization rate was increased to 10%.

In Q3, which is the first time, we pass through like the 10% threshold.

Historically.

And at the same time.

In our consumer incentives was.

Further decreased to three 3%.

Which is either like decreasing on a Q on Q basis, our year over year basis.

Pam.

<unk> cost.

Including rider costs packing cost was four 7% which is.

Decrease on year over year.

While increased Jiangsu.

Is it could it be cost seasonality in summer campaign.

Campaign.

And in terms of the.

For example, <unk> and therefore, a major driver of steel we will keep you increased commission on our marketing and manufacturing of rate and then at the same time.

We will further.

Decrease our.

Consumer incentives expenses and also operating costs.

Side to further enhance our.

There are some margin.

On a year over year basis.

And also in terms of the last question. Your second question in terms of the long term margin.

So basically as we have talked about previously so J D J.

Could be.

That netted to two like the traditional E Commerce platform, which is just a localized version so.

In terms of like the appreciating.

Operating profit so I guess, the JV generated through the platform. So we are a marketplace model neutral platform model. So sure be targeted as a 3% as a percentage of <unk> hour.

Our long term operating non-GAAP operating profit for J D J.

Thank you.

Okay.

If we dissect the other places.

Lindsay.

No.

Okay.

And daughter, Lucy endocrinologist in diabetes.

Congrats on the <unk> is in that sense, a hernia there too there financially.

Well. Thank you Jason so yeah, the syndrome crude unless it's we call it out.

Linda.

So I could see that Youll Sidney.

Two quick questions.

Now I'd like to share some thoughts on your second question about the competitive landscape.

That's more leading internet companies are prioritizing.

On the non retail business speaks off its great potential and we believe the industry can easily accommodate different players to grow laboratory and their respective areas of strength.

Cumulative catch IBM saw some gaps where they can achieve shlomo so you'll see units within this group.

With this is that the EU in Taiwan that we need to see students with some simple with the fulfillment.

But should that same timeline on chicken reduce impact.

So it sounds healthy manner.

So what I mean.

By changing that sends out that's a message.

Especially with <unk> about bringing the total neutral zone.

And to your question.

If we could squeeze your assortments issue introduce who don't quarter Q2.

J D D J, firstly, our strengths and it.

<unk> partnership with pay merchants remains rock solid.

This is a result of our positioning.

And open and neutral platform as well as our accumulated know how and expertise and empower and retailers.

Various systems and services.

Mentions ecosystem with no. It is hard to replicate and short time other platforms.

And supermarket category, we've on boarded 93 out of the top 100 tanks in China.

In addition in categories, such as smartphones and mom and baby.

We've also teamed up with most of the leading chain retailers in China.

This abundance of high quality supply is the basis for us to continuously attract and retain users.

Additional new two new ships with simple Timna, we don't put that for me.

So if we don't find them mature.

I'm not.

She says to us is that Susan.

<unk> for the future.

So.

Whichever nutrition, which agenda video Kimpton ICU shanda.

The $80 million for 10 months, you will meet that goal with future.

Okay.

So if there's something to announce things when it comes out of the yard Shaw.

Interim chunky chunky millions of ports on our tissue.

So this can be done.

DSO in the townships of Genpact limited, so that $2 million.

Simponi is about changing that.

Secondly, we enjoy huge potential and penetrating more of Jd's gives us.

Currently internet companies are focusing on cultivating the mindset for on demand retail among our own user base.

Which means limited head on competition among one another.

<unk> users.

Here in fleet purposeful shop has put them on higher merchandise quality and the delivery speed I believe its more efficient for us to convert them into on demand retail consumers and we remain confident in.

In penetrating 50% of the J D user base in the long run.

That's the one that says when something like this with some.

Nutrisystem Couto assumes in terms of where you need it.

So Shannon tongue secrets issue the tender.

Johann look which is really a key focus within Saudi <unk> consulting send them to me.

J J you lose if you take what's your sense of <unk>.

Turkey renewed.

Poussaint tuition two kimpton sandeep, so I think all the Credentialing Brooklyn cognizant when injunctions is unsure what use of cheaper under you knew that need it.

And thirdly on top.

Market share gains, we value with sustainable growth by balancing growth and profitability.

So a combination of efforts in optimizing subsidies.

<unk> delivery efficiency and increasing online marketing monetization.

Profitability of J D. D. J has improved significantly in the past few quarters to near breakeven.

In the long run we also believe that <unk> has higher profitability potential compared with other players tests.

Our significantly higher <unk> and online marketing monetization rate.

Thank you.

Kidding.

Thank you.

Okay sure.

Yeah.

Your next question comes from Alicia Yap with Citi. Please go ahead.

Hi.

Josh I'll hop by any chance you could give some of the key one.

<unk> printing is Oh go ahead, Phil about people sure sure you find that Shan Shan Shan key to US is how should you think Oh God.

<unk> took a sheet sure that you've got.

Shawn Lockman sushi gain that you see.

Do you see.

Now what's that telling you that there's room for all qualifying Shuja Hall, So got how sure Glenn Phase how should you think <unk> made a huge show El Nino.

You see I mean, we definitely want to go city, you got like Nokia Goldman Keno Hill.

When you calculate your T shirts at the end of time, but when kind of thoughts about Q2 tissues ship share.

It sounds like a pushout, so uhm ammonia <unk> songs yard or you can shoot Shaw.

No just like she saw that Shan Shan Shan English T. J C. No from a constancy to England to shelf, what I'll I'll check <unk> check out T. So that's I'm not sure.

Paul.

Thanks for taking my questions. My first question is a follow up on our management comment regarding the supermarket and the electronics category before to think I spent the first three weeks of October and then single stage rebounds, and so just wondering what is the demand trend.

Oh single state that you're expecting for supermarket and non supermarket category and then second question is on the cost of riders.

So can I understand the increase in the cost of writers is related to these intra city delivery is at and heating related depending on the type of the chain merchants that you're servicing and which specific.

Order demand during this <unk> that resulted in the higher rider cost do we expect a higher rate of cost into <unk> given it is a promotional season and potentially coda later thank you.

Thank you Alicia so lesser academia gesture.

Two questions. So for the first question. So it's just like the weekend. So we finish like the <unk>.

Campaigns, so still there isn't it.

I don't think there is enough time for us to evaluate like that just three days.

Daily sales to give you some color or comment for the post pandemic campaigns trained.

In terms of the second question. So about the right account. So in terms of the absolute dollar amount of the rider costs, Yes, it's increase either on Q on Q level or year over year cost overall and is still growing and robust today, especially our.

And I know this is growing by 29%, but within which allow.

Our accounts.

It's growing by five percentage.

We have discussed before so.

So this is just the cost overall and yes, it's growing in terms of like the.

The unit cost at <unk>.

The order level.

Jimmy level basically.

<unk>.

Efficient and safe.

On a year over year basis and.

In Q3, basically because usually it's the summer.

Season, so it takes more to recruit and retain riders compared to spring time or not.

The autumn season.

So in Q4, we believe on a year over year basis, our price.

Union costs.

For the riders will decrease on a year over year basis.

Okay. Thank you you bet.

The next question comes from Lei, Zhang with Bank of America.

Please go ahead.

Hi, Glenn.

That's all hospices, there's all of that.

Our Eagle one pieces outweighs, yeah, all woman kitchen, and gorgeous about let's say the Manhattan Chunky thought Oh, it's all quite Oh, taking chico's quantifiable at all my French Guiana, South now Oh God go and she says don't change outside of just say hang out mccloskey, yeah completely I cannot go check out ship almost Xiang Guan.

Oh sure Jay something funny, because they thought that woman that's something that supports a more should go up at yourself off on me and they say Oh Gee, that's not buyback on the banking side.

For taking my question My first question.

Regarding the impact from our pro worse, a little word of threshold awful, but spread the leeway to RMB.

That's K nine in Q3 and that can you share more color all day.

Did I notice that that we have just put out some nice semi related pay that number doing double the allowance. Okay. You gave us all a malls.

Most of all on your momentum regarding lifesaving rolled out thank you.

Got that.

In our Windows 10 users.

This is Jim.

Linda keep himself will guide us to the Tulsa excuse me.

To conclude that Houston.

Poussaint could end up at 602.

TTM equivalent to bias.

Also convincing people to.

And bent on Friday advantage here.

Awesome.

So there's nothing there.

With that said its immediate Houston is about.

Put under undue sounded good.

Thank you for question.

Since the end of July delivery fee waiver campaign.

As covered basically almost supermarket orders.

And after that we found.

Post conversion rates and repeat purchase rates increased.

<unk> remained largely stable.

Specifically and August comparator with July the overall conversion rate of our supermarkets category improved by over 10% and then <unk>.

<unk> retention rate also increased by over 10%.

It will be was substantially unchanged.

Do you think to torment him about that whole suite that G&A to the central let's say.

<unk> Castle.

So I think China Chinese Mega chances for more clinical work with the tungsten that's useful.

And therefore, thanks to the initiative.

Your growth.

Of.

Dnb in the supermarket category accelerated in the third quarter of 2093 compared with <unk>.

Second quarter.

And the program will be a long term initiative to improve user experience.

So we didn't turn into the tenure so European to have its own gas into some bank institutions without debit CGM multilingual shelf without vishal.

And in terms of their P&L impact since the cost of delivery fee waiver, it's shared by us and our merchant partners the impact on the direct margin of J D D J.

And it doesn't sound skips and manageable for us.

The support from <unk>.

The important thing she said that there's a huge shift.

So some of what she does is it something you know about that shaping how soot sensing Chaplin tend to look at some of the hurricane type settlement.

So I can most impact types with a focus on Super Con sequel.

Ago.

This will remain so.

No.

When you hit that asos, so soon about that too.

Hum.

This is the truth of the shelf.

While proven silicon Glen It's we'll talk about that one.

<unk>.

So also a second question about large streaming yes, we've taken out the rising popularity of live streaming during the singles day promotion that just ended.

D D J launched multiple live streaming events, together with merchants and brands and categories, including supermarkets consumer electronics and home appliances.

This was the first time.

That's our frontline professional teams engaged with three tenants are engaging with consumers to offer them value for money products deliverable within one hour and we did see initial results with <unk>.

Some sessions, attracting total views exceeding $1 million.

Total CMV transacted via live streaming more than tenfold versus June 18th promotion.

I think thats the cost of about 4 million.

At that time.

Our core yields in the <unk>, what you see.

For the second half of the geography.

Associated with Hurricane Matthew the feasibility of that.

With that element to your question.

It sounds I think Toyota tundra.

Tim Poole Tibor.

If we can continue that sells tobacco with GM.

Overall, we are still in exploration stage for the live streaming business, we plan to further optimize the process and enhanced our product capability.

Integrate lbs with live streaming.

In the future. We are also going to encourage local merchants on our platform to host regular live streaming session. So as to provide our users with more immersive on demand shopping experience.

Thanks for your question.

Okay.

The next question comes from Wayne Zhong with UBS. Please go ahead.

Hey, Glenn somehow Hawkeye he's doing all the team at National Shan Shan Shan is always that you were saying that you do gentlemen, Doug I'm not sure what else we should be doing all got quieter months I'm not sure if I'll use teaching a tissue as I said to her ammonia, which you should not put horizontal chowchilla sure Thiago that they'll have with somebody and Johns commentary you said you do come in anywhere near the Chartwell now holds.

I have a housekeeping question on Chicago and amongst your line is open Josh actually that you do that in the G. M D mix, how it'll be a different path.

Thank you John.

My first question is that we see that in our revenue growth is outgrowing our JD DDA. This quarter do we expect that trend to continue in the fourth quarter of next year and also that the revenue mix shift how would that impact our margin outlook in the fourth quarter next year as well and secondly, just a housekeeping question can management share the gender mix in.

Oh the trend in this quarter. Thank you.

Okay.

Okay. So.

About the first question. So basically we expect still a few platforms will grow.

Using similar speed in the following quarters or next year. So for the second question about Jamie mix. So.

The broader supertanker categories, it's comp.

Are you accounting for close to 50% of the Jimmy amount, while it <unk> account for 40% of the total Virginia Mt.

And in terms of the average order value so.

In Q3.
